The receptionist felt a deep resentment.
Aozawa returned, holding Hojo Shouko's hand as they headed to the elevator.
They took the elevator to the 53rd floor, where he headed straight for the executive suite and swiped the card to enter.
On the wall, a piece of art could be seen, and the closed curtains made the room appear somewhat dim.
Aozawa didn't turn on the lights, but instead walked over to open the floor-to-ceiling curtains, letting the bright sunlight pour into the room.
Hojo Shouko came in carrying her backpack and softly said, "Aozawa-senpai, I'll go take a bath first."
"Do you need help scrubbing your back?"
Aozawa volunteered.
Hojo Shouko's face turned crimson as she shook her head, refusing his offer.
She mainly wanted to change her clothes.
Aozawa didn't insist, and watched her enter the bathroom, then headed to the bar.
Above, there was a wine cabinet, with prices marked for each bottle.
