A journey through the underworld, starting from the Tsubakihara family.

Letting her out or letting him in, the result is the same, but the latter seems... more acceptable to her.

Upon hearing this, Makoto Jingu pushed open the door, went inside, and thoughtfully closed it behind him.

"You're so beautiful, Aunt Kyoka."

The beautiful scenery before him prompted the young man to express his heartfelt admiration.

The black bikini contrasted sharply with Kyoka Tachibana's milky white and delicate skin, creating a striking visual impact.

Her chest was slightly plunging into a V-shape, cleverly revealing her unfathomable Mariana Trench.

The narrow fabric of the bottom barely covered the key parts, and it was squeezed into her plump buttocks, turning into a sexy thong shape.

But what Jingu Makoto felt was the finishing touch was the outer layer of semi-transparent tulle skirt.

This ambiguous concealment is incredibly enticing, drawing people deeper into exploring the hidden realm.

Kyoka Tachibana could feel Makoto Jingu’s burning gaze sweeping over her.

The beautiful mature woman's face was already as red as it could possibly be; the shame she felt made her want to find a place to hide.

"Chengjun, let's change into another set..."

Kyoka Tachibana's legs went weak under Makoto Jingu's gaze, and she quickly sat down on the sofa next to him.

With her body supported, her violent heartbeat calmed down a little.

"How about we try these sets?"

Jingu Makoto was prepared and took out other swimsuits he had his eye on from behind him.

"Phew, these few are alright."

Seeing that what Jingu Makoto brought out this time was much more normal, Tachibana Kyoka breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced at the enthusiastic boy, hesitated for a moment, and didn't call him out, since it would be quite troublesome for him to come and go.

"Chengjun, could you please turn around?"

Kyoka Tachibana puffed out her chest, intending to project an image of adult authority.

Unexpectedly, this action caused the plump, soft ball to shake dramatically.

Jingu Makoto's eyes widened in surprise, but faced with the shy beauty, he obediently turned around.

Behind her came the rustling sound of changing clothes, and Kyoka Tachibana's soft, shy breaths...

After trying on several outfits, Kyoka Tachibana finally changed back into her own clothes and came out of the fitting room.

She stared at the swimsuits she had tried on, which were laid out on the soft stool, and fell into deep thought.

Which one should I choose?

"Why don't we buy them all, Aunt Kyoka?" Makoto Jingu's voice rang in her ear.

Upon hearing this, Kyoka Tachibana retorted irritably:

"Cheng-kun, I think it's you who wants to buy it."

"So I'll really buy it?"

Jingu Makoto's eyes lit up; what a stroke of good luck!

"Go away, go away~"

Kyoka Tachibana gave him a charmingly disdainful look.

Then, seemingly a little embarrassed, she said shyly:

"Chengjun, why don't you go out for a walk first? I might need to look around for a while longer. Let's meet at the coffee shop on the first floor."

Hearing Kyoka Tachibana's refusal, Makoto Jingu saw through her act but said nothing. He nodded and turned to leave.

"Aunt Kyoka, I'll be going now."

Only after watching Jingu Makoto's figure completely disappear from the store entrance did Tachibana Kyoka turn around.

She patted her burning cheeks and then began to make her choices carefully.

First, I picked up a relatively normal-looking swimsuit and put it in my shopping basket.

Then, Kyoka Tachibana looked at the black bikini and finally picked it up as well.

After all, Chengjun seems to really like this piece.

After doing all this, Kyoka Tachibana walked toward the self-checkout counter.

But just before scanning the product, her hand inexplicably stopped.

Kyoka Tachibana struggled, then turned back and stood before Makoto Jingu's first choice, her hand trembling as she reached out.

Hmm... I must be going crazy.

Chapter 198 Aunt Kyoka's Trouble

Taking this opportunity, Makoto Jingu also began to stroll around the mall.

While waiting for Aunt Kyoka, he planned to prepare some gifts.

After circling around a few times, Makoto Jingu quickly made his choice.

A soft backrest that supports the lower back, and a massager that can relieve neck and shoulder fatigue.

Kyoka Tachibana sits in the office for long periods, carrying such a heavy load in front of her; she must often experience back pain.

Jingu Makoto recalled the stunning view from the fitting room and immediately felt that his choice couldn't have been more correct.

About half an hour later, the two met successfully at the agreed-upon coffee shop.

"Aunt Kyoka, this is for you. Consider it a thank you in advance for the seaside trip."

Jingu Makoto handed over the wrapped gift bag.

"Oh, you child, why are you being so polite with your auntie?"

Kyoka Tachibana complained, but her actions in accepting the gift betrayed her true feelings, and the joy on her face was impossible to hide.

She curiously opened the bag, and upon seeing what was inside, she gasped in delight.

"Is it a lumbar pillow, and a massager? Cheng-kun is so thoughtful, my lower back and shoulders have been a bit sore lately~"

The thoughtfulness and care implied in the gift warmed Kyoka's heart.

"In that case, how about trying my massage?"

Seeing her delighted expression, Jingu Makoto suggested, "I used to give Mirasan massages quite often..."

Compared to these external things, perhaps his massage, performed by someone with a strong magnetic field, is more effective.

Kyoka Tachibana carefully placed the gift on the seat next to her, then picked up her coffee and took a small sip.

Upon hearing Makoto Jingu's words, her beautiful eyes instantly lit up, sparkling with anticipation.

"Really? Then why don't you come to my house for dinner tonight, Chengjun? I can also try your cooking skills."

"Hmm, no problem."

Looking into Kyoka Tachibana's seemingly expressive eyes, Makoto Jingu couldn't bring himself to refuse.

It's just dinner, I should be able to go home soon...

He'd been staying out all night for the past few days, and if he didn't go home soon, he felt like Mira-san, as well as the Yuna and Rina sisters, would nag him again.

But for some reason, Makoto Jingu felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Great! I'll have to cook something delicious later!"

Upon hearing the boy's affirmative answer, Kyoka Tachibana's lips curved into a smile, her beautiful face radiating obvious happiness and joy.

Jingu Makoto was also touched by the mature and beautiful woman's smile and smiled back.

The boy wore a charming, warm, and gentle smile, and Kyoka Tachibana couldn't help but stare, unconsciously murmuring:

"That's great~"

After finishing their coffee, the two walked out of the mall side by side.

As the sun began to set in the west, it painted the sky a magnificent orange-red.

The summer evening breeze, carrying the lingering warmth of the day, gently caressed my cheeks.

Makoto Jingu and Kyoka Tachibana strolled leisurely down the street, enjoying the rare tranquility.

Kyoka Tachibana hasn't experienced this kind of complete relaxation in a long time, as she's always been busy with work.

She turned her head and secretly sized up the tall, handsome young man beside her.

Makoto Jingu noticed the intense gaze and turned around, his eyes meeting Kyoka Tachibana's.

In that instant, Kyoka Tachibana felt as if her heart skipped a beat.

She looked away with a slightly flustered expression, then coughed lightly, using a smile to cover her unease:

"Ahem~ Cheng-kun, let's go, it's getting late. Auntie will take you home for a delicious meal."

The two walked towards the parking lot not far away.

Just as Kyoka Tachibana was about to open the car door, a van suddenly blocked their way.

The car door was pulled open with a "whoosh".

A burly man with a buzz cut jumped down first, followed by a dozen men wielding sticks and with menacing faces, who aggressively approached Kyoka Tachibana.

"Is this Ms. Tachibana Kyoka? Someone wants to see you. Please come with us."

The man with the buzz cut, who was in the lead, grinned, his eyes filled with undisguised malice.

"What are you going to do!"

Kyoka Tachibana had never seen anything like this before, and she panicked for a moment when faced with a group of thugs wielding weapons.

Just then, a broad figure blocked her way.

Kidnapping someone right in front of me? How dare you?

Makoto Jingu stepped forward, completely shielding Kyoka Tachibana behind him, and calmly asked:

"Yakuza organization?"

This is also a local specialty of the Cherry Blossom Prefecture, but due to the crackdown in recent years, it is now rarely seen.

"Kid, this is none of your business. If you don't want to get beaten up, get lost!"

The man with the buzz cut, seeing that his target was blocked, frowned impatiently.

He winked at his henchmen, signaling them to drag the troublesome guy aside.

But the next second, the man with the buzz cut opened his eyes wide.

Because those gangsters who rushed over vanished into thin air the instant they got close to the boy.

Yes, gone.

The man with the buzz cut wondered if he was seeing things, so he reached out and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

At that moment, Makoto Jingu's voice rang out again:

"I'll ask you one more time: Who are you, and what are you doing here?"

Seeing the strange young man with a smile on his face slowly walking towards him, the man with the buzz cut was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly, protecting his henchmen in front of him.

"All of you, get on top of him... uh..."

Before he could finish speaking, his henchmen followed suit and vanished in an instant.

Now, he's all alone here.

"you you……"

The man with the buzz cut knew he had run into a brick wall.

His legs buckled, and he collapsed to his knees with a thud, his forehead hitting the cold ground hard.

"I...I told you it was Mr. Katsui, Mr. Katsui contacted us..."

According to his account, a man named Goro Katsui paid a high price to have Kyoka Tachibana invited over for a chat.
