Chapter 47. Azabudai Hills
Chapter 47. Azabudai Hills
A high-end black sedan pulled up to the side of the road. Xun opened the passenger door and, under the watchful eyes of many onlookers, opened the rear door.
The destination is Minato Ward in Tokyo, where real estate prices are incredibly high, easily exceeding several million yen per square meter, making it truly a place where every inch of land is incredibly valuable.
Three girls, their attention focused on the luxurious buildings around them, stepped out of the car. What came into view was Azabudai Hills, Tokyo's newest urban landmark in recent years.
Japan's tallest building is located here, surrounded by more than 150 shops, divided into several different areas, making it several levels higher than Shibuya 109, which I visited before.
"Wow... I've heard about this place before, but this is my first time here!"
Kobayashi opened her mouth in surprise. She knew that Kaoru was very rich, but she never thought that he would bring her to such an upscale place that ordinary people could not afford, and even planned to treat her!
She had never heard of Kaoru having a personal butler before. At first, she thought he was lying to her, but judging from his confident reaction... it didn't seem fake at all.
Could this guy really be a hidden rich young master?
Thinking of this, Kobayashi raised his face, curious about what he would do next.
Are you hungry?
Kaoru asked a question, and the two girls next to him kept shaking their heads. Then he fixed his gaze on Kobayashi, who was leaning on his shoulder.
"Chio, what about you?"
Being called by his name so intimately... Xiaolin felt like her hair was about to stand on end. She mumbled "Not yet," avoiding his gaze.
"Okay, let's go take care of our stomachs first."
Xun nodded slightly and walked skillfully at the front, her unhurried demeanor giving the impression that she was a regular here.
"Ayano, have you been here before? This is the port area! You can't afford to go here."
"No, I've only seen it on TV. I've always wanted to come and visit."
"It's all thanks to Chio-chan's boyfriend... He's so handsome and super rich."
"I'm so envious of Chio-chan for finding a boyfriend like that..."
The two girls were whispering to each other. Xiaolin overheard their conversation and felt that the emptiness in her heart was completely filled, giving her a very fulfilling feeling.
Arriving at Mori JP, which sells a variety of food, B1-4F is home to a variety of restaurants selling food, including kaiseki cuisine and French cuisine. It is said that the grilled meat used is the best A5 grade Wagyu beef, and the price easily exceeds tens of thousands of yen, which is almost ten times the price of ordinary beef.
Xun led the three girls around for a while, but they were so overwhelmed by the sights that they couldn't tell which way was which.
Are we going to get lost?
To cultivate the image of a "rich young master," he did his homework all night. If he messed up at such an important moment, all his previous efforts would be wasted!
"Hoshino...kun, let's go get some sushi."
Feeling that she couldn't bring herself to call him "Kaoru-kun," Kobayashi gently shook Kaoru's right hand and pointed to a sushi shop not far away.
"No problem, what do you guys think?"
"We're fine with it too!"
So, after ordering three expensive servings of sushi, Kaoru took advantage of the three people not paying attention and opened the navigation app on her phone, quickly finding the exit.
After finishing his sushi in the garden of the central square, he planned to stroll through GARDEN PLAZA, which has various brand-name shops, to completely satisfy Kobayashi's vanity.
"Are we really going there?!"
Upon hearing Kaoru's suggestion, Kobayashi lost interest in even the delicious sushi, putting the half-eaten sushi into her handbag. The other two girls, however, found the sushi in the way and threw it into the trash can as garbage.
"Since you've finally managed to get out and have some fun, just tell me if there's anything you want to buy. Hanako-chan and Ayano-chan, don't be shy about buying it."
Xun spoke in a very easygoing manner, and the three girls were clearly pleased to hear his words. Without any hesitation, they walked into one of the luxury goods stores.
Soon, Xiaolin spotted a handbag that was too expensive for her to afford, but which she had always wanted.
"Ah, you have excellent taste. This is a collaboration between us and artist Takashi Murakami. There's only one left. It would definitely suit your style perfectly."
The shop assistant, who didn't think these high school students could afford it, was just using the same sales pitch they'd heard countless times.
Xun glanced at the price and felt her heart about to stop beating.
This mere leather item is priced at over 30 yen!
If it weren't for the fact that the system would cover all the expenses, he wouldn't have even glanced at it and would have turned around and left this terrible place.
"Is it okay? Is it okay? I want this..."
Kobayashi grabbed Kaoru's hand and asked impatiently.
The two girls were also looking at him, wondering if he would actually buy it.
"Okay, thank you. I'll go pay the bill."
Xun took out her bank card and, guided by the clerk, went to the counter.
Swipe your card and pay.
He acted as if he had bought the cheapest 300 yen bento box, showing no pity for the money whatsoever.
After successfully paying, the shop assistant handed Xiaolin the handbag she had always wanted. She looked at the boy in front of her, who looked like a high school student, in surprise... She never expected that he would actually buy it.
"Wow! You're so great! I'm so happy!"
Having finally found the handbag she had always wanted, Kobayashi pounced on Kaoru, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the cheek, leaving a barely noticeable lip print.
Seeing this scene, the two girls' last shred of doubt about Kaoru's identity vanished completely.
I initially thought he was just pretending to be rich, but spending 30 yen on such a high-end luxury item without hesitation... this is something only a rich young master could do.
Thinking of this, the two girls looked at Xiaolin with not only envy, but also jealousy.
"Oh, right, Ayano and Hanako have always wanted a necklace, haven't they? It's on me today."
As Kobayashi spoke generously, the two girls exclaimed "Wow!" and happily went to the counter to choose their favorite necklaces.
The two necklaces together cost over 400,000 yen, so... there's less than 300,000 yen left in usable funds.
If we keep buying, we'll really go bankrupt!
Kaoru was a little worried that Kobayashi might make some other demands. He didn't intend to spend money on something so trivial if the cost exceeded the system's capacity.
Fortunately, the three girls bought what they liked and were so busy taking pictures to show off that they had no intention of buying anything else.
"Xiao Xun, you're so good to me, I really like you!"
Kobayashi said happily, pressing her body tightly against Kaoru, completely treating him as her real boyfriend.
