On the street outside the bubble bath shop.
After relaxing, Jiang Chen walked with his hands in his pockets, feeling laid-back. If only he could have a cigarette, he'd be even more dashing.
What a pity.
Smoking is harmful to health.
Maybe this is the only flaw in Boss Jiang's character, not contributing to Shenzhou's national defense.
It's past ten o'clock, just when the city's nightlife is beginning, and the bustling Ginza looks like a city that never sleeps.
The door of the bubble bath shop opened.
A figure walked out low-key, head slightly bowed, wearing sunglasses and a large coat, so as not to attract any attention.
She headed straight towards Jiang Chen, who was standing nonchalantly across the street.
"Do you have to stand here?"
Jiang Chen was puzzled, "Is there a problem?"
Reluctantly, Koda Kaoru pushed up her sunglasses, not wanting to linger at the shop entrance, "Let's go."
"Didn't disturb your work, did I?"
The two walked south along the street.
Such concern wasn't needed; asking this at such a moment, what's the point?
"Where to eat."
"Guest's choice."
Boss Jiang replied casually.
"Did I say I was treating you?"
"Teacher Xiang Tian, you earned quite a lot tonight, a late-night snack shouldn't be a big deal."
What shameless words.
What does earnings have to do with treating someone?
But Koda Kaoru didn't argue back.
The words, "you wouldn't want your boyfriend to know," were too powerful.
"Ginza is too expensive."
Jiang Chen nodded, expressing understanding.
No one's money falls from the sky.
Although he was relatively easy to serve as a customer, there was still washing and pressing involved, right?
"It doesn't matter where, expensive places don't necessarily taste good, is Teacher Xiang Tian's home far from here?"
Jiang Chen asked seemingly on a whim.
Koda Kaoru, already reluctantly, became alert, silently watching her former student.
Alright.
The tenuous teacher-student relationship was destined to change completely tonight, or rather, it already had.
"If it's not far, we might as well buy something along the way and eat at Teacher Xiang Tian's place. It's convenient and saves Teacher Xiang Tian from going back alone, which could be dangerous."
How considerate.
"Anyone at home? Is it inconvenient?"
Seeing her silence, Jiang Chen asked, "Has Teacher Xiang Tian already moved in with her boyfriend?"
With his intelligence, this was clearly an unnecessary question.
If Koda Kaoru really lived with her boyfriend, how could she be "moonlighting" at the bubble bath at night?
Does he really think she's a time management master?
Even.
Whether she even has a boyfriend is uncertain.
"Why didn't you come last time? Was it because you had a beauty by your side?"
Koda Kaoru finally retaliated, with a mocking smile at the corner of her red lips.
Jiang Chen's face remained calm, "Teacher Xiang Tian isn't familiar with her; bringing her along wouldn't be polite."
Such a stickler for etiquette.
"Heh."
Koda Kaoru laughed, walking ahead with a sense of pride, "If you have the guts, come on."
Jiang Chen watched her back, touched his nose, and then leisurely followed along.
"Tsk."
Standing by the street, looking at a stand-alone two-story small building only ten minutes away on foot from Ginza, Jiang Chen let out a light sigh.
"Teacher Xiang Tian, is this really your house?"
Though a bit belittling, Boss Jiang's words held no malice.
With Tokyo's housing prices, owning such a small building likely exceeds what ordinary people can imagine.
"Are you saying I don't deserve to live here?"
As she spoke, Koda Kaoru took out keys from her crossbody bag and opened the outer iron gate, answering Jiang Chen's question with her actions.
Jiang Chen smiled.
Indeed.
An ordinary person might never afford such a house, but don't forget, this former East Sea foreign teacher has multiple jobs, excelling in nearly every industry.
She taught the Imperial Family.
A top Pao Ji in Ginza.
Is it strange for her to live in such a small building?
Carrying the shopping bags, Jiang Chen followed her inside, chatting leisurely, "Such a big house, does Teacher Xiang Tian live here alone?"
From outside, the house seemed dark, no signs of anyone.
"What about your parents? Don't they live with you?"
"What's it to you?"
Jiang Chen wasn't embarrassed by her retort, continuing to make small talk, "How much did this house cost? At least a billion yen, right?"
Through the small courtyard, Koda Kaoru opened the main door, taking off her sunglasses, and turning around.
"Do I look like a billionaire?"
Without hesitation, Boss Jiang nodded, "You do."
He was speaking the truth.
Koda Kaoru's appearance and aura are hard to associate with the word "poor," the type poor people wouldn't even dare approach.
You can't hit a smiling face, facing Jiang Chen's compliment, Koda Kaoru was at a loss for words, then said coldly, "Take a tenth off."
A tenth?
Jiang Chen couldn't help but look inside.
A two-story building, in such a good location, converted to RMB, is just a million?
"I don't believe it."
Boss Jiang, whose business involved real estate, commented candidly.
But whether he believed or not, did she care?
"Do I need to lie to you?"
With a "snap," Koda Kaoru turned on the lights, the room brightening instantly. She took a pair of slippers from the shoe rack and tossed them to Jiang Chen.
"Does Teacher Xiang Tian know of any similar properties?"
Jiang Chen asked as he changed his shoes.
"How about I sell you this one? Three million RMB."
