Chapter 209: The Junior Employee (Extra update, day 3, please subscribe)
Tokyo, Shinjuku Ward, at the entrance of a rather high-end rental apartment building, the dim light flickered faintly, like the fire of a firefly in the dark night.
Although the community was upscale, it was still a bit distant from the bustling areas.
At this time, most residents were either working overtime or soaking in izakayas.
The streets and the community were also quiet, appearing somewhat tranquil.
"Mr. Haruka, do, do you want to come up for a cup of tea?"
After saying this, Yaguchi Risa immediately regretted it,
With only a man and a woman alone together, if anything were to happen, her small frame would definitely be unable to resist.
By then, she feared that even screaming her lungs out, no one would come to her rescue.
Wuwuwu.
But, she was just being polite, Haruka Yuzan probably wouldn't really want to come home with her… right?
"Sure, I am a bit thirsty actually."
However, Haruka Yuzan agreed without any hesitation,
"We really are in sync, aren't we!"
"Um, are we?"
Yaguchi Risa wore a smile uglier than crying.
"Of course."
......
"Wel, welcome."
The lights turned on, revealing a warm and simple little room setup.
A coffee table, a sofa, a TV, and the occasional pink decorations that gave a tender feminine touch added a heartwarming feeling to the space.
It was clear she had put her heart into it.
"Please, go ahead, I'll, I'll pour the water."
Back at home, Yaguchi Risa seemed even more nervous, as if more constrained than when she was at the villa.
"Hmm, it's alright, no need to be nervous, anyone would think I was a bad guy if they didn't know better!"
Sitting cross-legged on a cushion, Haruka Yuzan waved his hand casually, trying to make her relax a bit.
But Yaguchi Risa immediately stood up again and began to apologize, "So, sorry, Mr. Haruka, I, I didn't mean to!"
Whether she bowed too vigorously or those slender legs simply couldn't support the weight of her upper body, when the girl bowed deeply, she lost her balance and fell forward right into Haruka Yuzan's arms.
"Ouch!"
The girl cried out in pain as her upper body landed right on top of Haruka Yuzan's palm, which was resting by his thigh.
Flipping his hand subconsciously, he discovered a more terrifying fact: the huge potential of the junior employee was not something that could be grasped with just one hand.
For a moment Haruka Yuzan was stunned in place, himself having only thought about teasing the junior employee a bit; he had never expected such an accident to occur.
"Um! It, it really hurts!"
Yaguchi Risa raised her head with some pain, her big watery eyes filled with a layer of mist, and as she felt the movement on her chest, a tempting rosy blush involuntarily spread across her fair cheeks.
Her pitiable yet charming smile made one's heartbeat accelerate.
Her rosy, plump lips, like cow gelatin jelly, and without thinking, Haruka Yuzan lowered his head, starting to savor them attentively.
Their first kiss taken, Yaguchi Risa's eyes widened in surprise, her dewy eyes filled with shock, but for some reason, after locking eyes with Haruka Yuzan, the rebellious feeling in her heart gradually got replaced by joy??
They had only met for less than a day, yet his sunny and handsome appearance, along with his tragic and persistent life story, touched the softest part of her heart.
That's just the way girls are, especially someone with the character of a little girl like Yaguchi Risa.
Though she had not experienced this before, she was easily moved by these matters; the pity in her heart was now being exploited by the wicked Haruka Yuzan.
Poor innocent junior employee!
The two of them held each other and kissed for a while.
Naturally, Haruka Yuzan's hands were not idle; he had been coveting those supple, black-stockinged legs for quite some time.
They were smooth and delicate, with a bit of fleshiness at the base of the thighs, very comfortable to touch.
It seemed to be her first time experiencing something like this.
Yaguchi Risa closed her eyes tightly, her shapely long legs in black stockings unconsciously pressed together, and between them, she even seemed to cooperate a little.
Until Haruka Yuzan accidentally applied too much force.
That's when Yaguchi Risa once again opened her eyes wide, regained her senses, and quickly pushed the boy in front of her away.
"Mr. Haruka, please, have some respect....."
Leaving behind those words, the junior employee dashed into the small kitchen, starting to boil water and prepare tea for Haruka Yuzan.
......
The tea, as green as jade, set off ripples in the small living room. It seemed as if a tranquil tea fragrance wafted through the air. The girl cradled her teacup, took a deep sip, and revealed a look of pure enjoyment.
"Ahh, so, so soothing..."
The faint steam tinted her small face a rosy hue. Haruka Yuzan sat to the side watching her, unable to suppress the fatherly smile that spread across his face.
"Eh, Haruka, don't you like, like, drinking tea?"
The young employee also noticed the boy's movements, set down her teacup, and asked with a touch of curiosity,
"But, I, I have, besides tea, also, also have milk. Would you like some?"
"No need, I really enjoy drinking tea," Haruka Yuzan said with a smile, shaking his head.
"Ah, good, good then..."
Calm returned to the living room, occasionally broken by the sound of the two sipping their tea. The somewhat ambiguous atmosphere from before had vanished with the evening breeze.
After a long silence, Yaguchi Risa began to speak slowly,
"So, Mr. Haruka, does, does our café still provide employee housing?"
"Hm? Why do you ask?" Haruka Yuzan turned his head, curious, but upon seeing the girl's expression, he quickly understood,
"Sister Reiko and others are my tenants, and I have asked them to help manage the café. Why, little Risa, do you also want to move in with us?"
The idea of being the lowest-ranked tenant in the villa made the young employee's head shake as vigorously as a rattle-drum.
"No, no need, I, I live here, and it's, it's quite nice."
Watching the reserved girl, Haruka Yuzan couldn't help but smile.
After breaking the ice, the first conversation between the scheming, unscrupulous boss and the adorably ditzy junior employee began.
......
In a room at the end of the second-floor hallway of the villa.
A young, naive figure was hunched over a desk, fervently writing something.

Does the great manga artist also plan to branch out into writing novels?
Such a dutiful and hardworking role model indeed!
However, listening to the content of the naive voice echoing from the room, something seemed slightly off...
"Hehehe!! Once Risa starts working at the café, I'll use my inspections as an excuse to live at the café every day and develop a good relationship with her."
"Extra attention from a leader to a shy junior employee, to let her truly experience the difference in treatment from other employees and win her over with my affection. Special Note: 1. Make sure to stand up for little Risa when Mr. Haruka bullies her. Even at the risk of having my little behind spanked, I must bravely help Risa!"
Under the dim desk lamp, the figure hunched over the table cast a long shadow, resembling a little devil with horns.
The little guy was giggling to himself, and even the shadow on the wall seemed to sway in response.
"Special Note: 2. Keep a close watch on Haruka Yuzan and act quickly and decisively!"
"Hmm-hmm!"
Misaki Saki put down her pencil, looking at the densely packed plan she had written, and nodded with satisfaction.
Seemingly enraptured by the thought of her future happiness, she licked her lips and a look of contentment spread across her innocent, adorable face.
Here I come, little Risa! o(*////▽////*)q
Poor little Misaki had no idea that while she was busy drafting her plans, someone else had already set their own in motion.
.....
"Achoo!"
"What's, what's the matter, Mr. Haruka?"
At the entrance of the apartment building, Yaguchi Risa asked with concern, her face flushed,
"Is it because the summer nights are cold and you've caught a chill?"
"I don't think so," Haruka Yuzan rubbed his nose and said with a smile to the girl before him, "Maybe it's because Risa was thinking of me just now, which is why I sneezed."
"Don't, don't be ridiculous." Her face, already rosy, became even redder as Yaguchi Risa lowered her head, avoiding Haruka Yuzan's gaze, "Alright, alright, it's getting late, Mr. Haruka, you should head back soon..."
Her gentle voice was like a tickling spring breeze.
Haruka Yuzan decided not to tease the junior employee any further, shrugged his shoulders, and bid his goodbye, "Okay then, I'll be off. Contact me by phone if you need anything."
He noticed that the young employee's stutter seemed to be innate and not because she was nervous. Even though they had just had a lengthy conversation, she still stuttered, unable to speak smoothly.
She was clearly much older than him, but she appeared especially cute and charming.
Hearing the boy's words, Yaguchi Risa quickly lifted her head and gently nodded.
"Mm, mm-hmm."
Watching his retreating figure, her beautiful eyes unwittingly revealed a faint sense of loss.
In the dark hallway, with the boy's figure vanishing, silence gradually settled in.
The door closed, obscuring the last slivers of light.
