Chapter 272 We still need to sleep in separate rooms.
At lunchtime, Shichen told everyone that Hoshino Ai had joined the family.
Tohru and the others already knew Hoshino Ai and perhaps also knew about Tokiomi's true nature, so they were not surprised and even gave Hoshino Ai a warm welcome.
Without needing to say more, they could guess that Hoshino Ai's background was also pitiful.
Girls can get along very easily; a few words are all it takes to become good friends. Age is definitely not a problem.
However, since the fourth department is still at school, I'll have to introduce them tonight.
After dinner, Tohru conveniently resolved Hoshino Ai's identity issue for her.
How could there be something as convenient as magic?
In the afternoon, having nothing else to do, I accompanied Hoshino Ai back to get some things; many of her personal belongings were still at the agency.
You can buy new ones, but since Saito Ichigo and the others bought it for Hoshino Ai, you should still keep using it.
However, while Hoshino Ai was tidying up, Saito Ichigo approached Tokitomi and surprisingly said that he had found Tokitomi a job.
He's really fast.
The job itself is quite simple; it involves taking photos for fashion magazines as a clothing model. The key issue is that the deal hasn't been finalized yet.
Saito Ichigo had connections in this area, and since the timing was perfect, he joined in and went straight to discuss business.
No matter how eloquently he spoke, since the time of day hadn't been chosen, how could he possibly agree immediately? So, they still needed to meet in person.
The pay wasn't much, but the clothes I wore during the shoot were included as payment.
Shi Chen agreed. Given his qualifications, he estimated that after one meeting, there would be no need for further discussion. However, he had another objective.
After Hoshino Ai finished packing her things, Toki took her back without letting her tidy up the room; he brought her straight back.
The two then followed Saito Ichigo in his cheap car to discuss work.
"Why did you drag me along, Toki?" Hoshino Ai couldn't help but ask on the way.
She and Shichen sat together in the back seat of the car.
If it weren't for Saito Ichigo, Tokimitsu would definitely have held her on his lap.
"Guess! There's a prize if you guess right." Shichen is giving a riddle.
"A prize? You can't be dragging me into it, can you?" Hoshino Ai blinked and asked.
"So smart?" Shi Chen smiled and ruffled her hair.
"Really?" Hoshino Ai asked incredulously.
"Otherwise, why would I bring you here? To broaden your horizons?"
"But didn't the president only help you negotiate a job?"
"Yes, Toki, do you have any thoughts?" Saito Ichigo asked.
"Then let me tell you... what do you think of me?" Shichen asked.
Saito Ichigo remained silent.
Ai Hoshino answered decisively, "Very handsome! Tokimitsu, you are the most handsome man in the world!"
"Could this be the real reason you contacted me?"
"Hehe~ This is one of them," Hoshino Ai replied truthfully.
The main reason that attracted her was that the timing allowed her to see extraordinary abilities.
"Are you two... flirting?" Saito Ichigo couldn't help but interject.
"President, please don't misunderstand me. She's still so young."
"I didn't say anything..."
"Ahem, what do you think of me, boss?"
"...Guess why I dared to be so decisive in discussing work?" Saito Ichigo asked rhetorically.
As a man, his inner self wouldn't allow him to directly compliment Shi Chen's appearance.
"The club president really knows how to beat around the bush... Since you've put it that way, do you think I can use this to negotiate a small deal with them?"
"Adding love...is that considered a small condition?"
"It's not like we can't film now; she already looks like a middle school student."
"Yao was born in junior high school.
Fashion magazines cover not only baby clothes but also elementary school students' outfits, so their target audience is mainly girls.
Even elementary school students in Japan are already paying attention to their outfits.
"Love is so adorable, how could the other person possibly refuse?"
"I understand, I'll try to negotiate."
"Huh? I'm going to have a job?" Hoshino Ai blinked her big eyes.
"You're only realizing it now?" Shi Chen looked at her amusedly.
"After all, I always thought it would be a long time before I could become an idol."
"It won't be long before you can start being an idol while you're studying."
"So early?"
"Cultivating companionship is all the rage now."
"Won't you be very busy?"
"Just ask Thor for help, don't be shy."
"I see!"
"Who is Thor?" Saito Ichigo couldn't help but ask.
"There's a girl in my shop. You can come over sometime, and I'll treat you to coffee."
"Okay, I'll definitely go when I have time."
Upon arriving at their destination, Tokimatsu and Hoshino Ai followed Saito Ichigo into the magazine office, where their arrival immediately attracted the attention of all the staff.
Saito Ichigo has a good network of connections; he even knows the president of a magazine. Naturally, the president wanted to sign a contract the moment he saw Tokichi.
Shichen then introduced Hoshino Ai to the president, who agreed without any further discussion.
The two are both very qualified, and the contract offers good benefits. The company president immediately started planning their work, and filming is expected to begin in three days.
After all, he didn't even dare to imagine how popular Shichen's fashion photos would be, whether girls would love to see them and boys would follow suit.
The magazine alone would probably sell like hotcakes.
He didn't have any particular thoughts at first. No matter how much Saito Ichigo praised him, what kind of man could he possibly look like?
It seems he's short-sighted.
After signing the contract, Shi Chen and the others left, and the president couldn't help but start arranging work.
"It's that easy?" Hoshino Ai finally couldn't help but ask in surprise after getting into the car.
"That's just how the world is," Shi Chen said with a smile.
"really."
Saito Ichigo smiled broadly; his agency was finally about to begin!
"Is she really that beautiful?" Hoshino Ai pondered.
"Don't think that being beautiful is a good thing," Shi Chen patted her on the head, reminding her.
"Oh... Don't worry, Toki, I won't use that." Hoshino Ai laughed.
"What do you mean, 'I'm at ease'?" Shi Chen asked with a serious expression.
"Hehe~" Hoshino Ai patted her thigh with a cheerful laugh.
Saito Ichigo dropped the two off at the coffee shop entrance and then left immediately. He had other things to take care of and many plans to make.
It's unbelievable that he entrusted Hoshino Ai to Tokimatsu so readily.
Fortunately, Shichen wasn't a bad person.
The coffee shop needs to be quieter in the afternoon, with only two or three customers. When I get back, I don't plan to be the mascot, but rather help Hoshino Ai tidy up her room.
If necessary, expand the space in her room.
Hoshino Ai's arrival made Tokiomi realize a serious problem: sleeping with everyone.
While it's nice to sleep together, the little one is there too, so there's nothing that can be done. Even if the little one isn't there, there's nothing too outrageous that can be done. In fact, to ensure fair treatment, someone might ask him to do something that another person also wants him to do.
That won't do.
It's better if everyone has their own room. He can go to their rooms at will, in a soundproof enclosure, and do whatever he wants.
He decided to discuss this matter with everyone that evening.
After helping Hoshino Ai set up her room, Toki took her upstairs to play, since she would be starting school soon and wouldn't be able to play during the day anymore.
When it was time for school to end in the afternoon, Shishigaki first went to pick up Yoshino and the others, and then he let Hoshino Ai play with them.
They may be quite far apart in age, but they can still be considered peers.
Shichen went downstairs to chat with Thor and the others.
He had just returned, and Thor and the others had so much to say to him. If he hadn't been with the three little ones, he probably would have had to listen to their chatter for the past two nights.
Now is a good time.
However, halfway through the conversation, he went to pick up Kasumigaoka Utaha and the others.
Yesterday, Kasumigaoka Utaha complained that he didn't pick them up, so he had to go today. After all, she had let him enjoy the bliss of bathing together.
Eriri naturally came too.
It's Friday, and she plans to stay overnight. Later that evening, she'll be taken back to get a change of clothes.
She has no shortage of clothes, but unfortunately none of them are suitable for her.
It's a bit pitiful, but thankfully both the older and younger people like it.
That evening, Shichen introduced Hoshino Ai to everyone again. Apart from Koya, everyone already knew her.
Esther chatted with Hoshino Ai, who was very familiar with her.
After they got to know each other better, Shi Chen brought up the idea of sleeping in separate rooms. He originally thought everyone would refuse, but to his surprise, they all agreed.
"What? Prince, you sleep with everyone?" Eriri was extremely shocked.
"Toki, you really are a womanizer," Hoshino Ai teased, though she didn't seem to care.
"What? You're tempted?" Kasumigaoka Utaha teased Eriri.
"No, no, I didn't!"
"It's a pity you're too late. You'll miss your chance to sleep with Chen."
