Hoshino Sora cut the special three-delicacy zongzi into evenly sized small pieces and placed them on a plate, then gave them a bag of zongzi. He looked at the two women dressed in zongzi cos costumes and handed over this arduous task.
Shuttling through the crowd, distributing flyers, and inviting people to sample, none of these were easy tasks. Although they didn't work here, the time and effort they had to put in were no less than theirs.
"Alright, you two hurry in and cook the zongzi. The first batch of customers will be here soon."
"We will do our best to attract more customers!"
Kitagawa Marin and Yui Yuigahama exchanged glances, both seeing burning fighting spirit in each other's eyes. Whether for the grand meal or for honor, they would do their utmost!
"First place on the best-seller list is ours!"
"Let's get to work."
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Hoshino Sora said with high spirits, and the others also had energetic expressions. Soon, batches of zongzi entered the pot, and as the temperature rose, the aroma wafted out.
"Let's get started too."
Next door, Soma Yukihira and the others saw Hoshino Sora begin cooking and also started to act. Soma Yukihira himself pushed a cart out to attract customers, while the others stayed in the shop to sell.
"Forget it, I'll go attract customers too."
He glanced at the setup of the scene; it didn't matter whether he was inside or not. Thinking of this, Hoshino Sora decided to go out and attract customers, as what they lacked most now was not manpower, but customers!
"Then, should I also…"
"Forget it. Everyone else is going out to attract customers. Wouldn't it be putting the cart before the horse if no one stayed here to sell zongzi? Don't worry, the three of us are enough."
Hoshino Sora said with a dashing smile, then took the flyers and zongzi and set off. They had another advantage over Soma Yukihira: their flyers had a detailed map of their shop drawn on them.
Compared to unclear descriptions, an accurate map would undoubtedly make it easier for people to find the place. He believed that with this detailed map, customers would surely find them quickly.
Thinking of this, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but quicken his pace, and before long, he caught up with Kitagawa and Yuigahama. At this time, the two were leisurely walking towards the school gate.
Because there was still some time before customers would arrive, they didn't need to rush too much.
"Hoshino-kun, why are you here? Did you forget to tell us something?"
Hearing footsteps from behind, Kitagawa and Yuigahama turned around and then saw Hoshino Sora hurrying over. They immediately stopped in confusion and looked at him.
"No, I just wanted to go attract customers with you. There are enough people over there."
Hoshino Sora said, coming to their side and walking alongside them.
"With us? Yay! Does this count as a disguised date? Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I had a date alone with Hoshino-kun. To be honest, I really miss it. I always feel that way."
"If you want to, we can have a date alone in a few days. We can go to the anime convention you like, whether it's in Japan or China. I'll have individual dates with everyone then."
"Really?!"
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Kitagawa Marin was first a little surprised, then quickly reacted, her face froze for a moment before breaking into an incredibly satisfied smile.
"So, Hoshino-kun belongs to us all day today?!"
Yui Yuigahama said belatedly, startled by this sudden happiness. She swallowed her saliva at the end, then finally reacted, reaching out and grabbing his arm.
"That's right, Hoshino-kun belongs to us all day!"
Kitagawa Marin also spoke excitedly, there was nothing more joyful than being with the man she loved! Her already strong spirit for attracting customers became even more intense!
"You don't have to be so excited. I'll be with you for a long time in the future. Whether it's group dates or individual dates, I'll be there whenever you want."
Looking at their excited expressions, Hoshino Sora felt a little guilty. When they first started dating, he clearly said he would treat them well, but he couldn't even make time to be with them…
Now they even have to ask…
"No, I must make enough time to be with them in the future!"
Looking at Kitagawa Marin and Yui Yuigahama's incredibly excited expressions, Hoshino Sora secretly swore in his heart that he would treat not only them but also his other wives well!
"Hmm! I know, I just knew Hoshino-kun is the best to us!"
The excitement in her voice remained undiminished, because every promise Hoshino Sora made had always come true. So, every time he made a promise, they would look forward to it with absolute trust!
As she spoke, Kitagawa Marin wrapped her arms around Hoshino Sora's neck and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. This feeling was simply too blissful—the happiness of a promise fulfilled, the joy of anticipation!
"Oh, by the way, our school is going to hold a School Festival soon. If Hoshino-kun has time, you can come and see it! I'm also on the School Festival's executive committee, and I'm overseeing a lot of things~"
Suddenly, Yui Yuigahama, who was nearby, spoke up. Their school would be holding a School Festival soon, with various activities. Dating there would definitely be a very interesting thing.
Of course, there was another important reason: her little sister had been constantly pestering her to meet her boyfriend.
And because her boyfriend hadn't shown his face in front of everyone for a long time, her little sister even suspected that Hoshino Sora was a fictional boyfriend she made up to escape the pursuers at school.
Because of her cute appearance and good figure, Yui Yuigahama was very popular at school. When she first enrolled, she received almost one confession letter every few days.
Later, because she publicly stated that she had a boyfriend, many boys were heartbroken and gave up pursuing her.
But there were also the persistent types who thought that if Hoshino Sora wasn't around, they could take advantage of the situation.
As the saying goes, if you wield your hoe well, there's no corner you can't dig up. Many people harbored such unhealthy thoughts, so Yui Yuigahama wanted to take advantage of the School Festival to have Hoshino Sora officially show his face in front of everyone.
As long as he appeared at school and everyone saw the two of them standing together so intimately, a perfect match, those boys would surely feel ashamed and wouldn't dare to bother her again.
Why call it harassment? If she's already clearly refused and they keep pestering her, what else is it but harassment?!
Fortunately, after acquiring Gourmet Cells, Yui Yuigahama possessed considerable combat power. Facing harassment from some hooligan-type boys, she had the strength to strike back with heavy punches, and for this, she even 'made enemies' with quite a few factions.
Actually, using the word 'made enemies' isn't quite appropriate, because now the people from those factions hide when they see her. A dozen big boys couldn't beat one small girl; no matter where it happens, it's a very embarrassing thing.
That hooligan-type boy was also kicked out of his gang because of this incident, and it's said he was beaten up and is doing very poorly, which makes people sigh with regret.
Aside from the hooligan-type boys, although other harassers didn't give up on her, they clearly reined it in a lot after she publicly stated that she had a boyfriend.
After all, those who dared to pursue her were boys confident in their appearance; they couldn't possibly act so shamelessly in front of others, but they would still find ways to show her goodwill.
For example, boys whose homes were on a different route from hers would lie and say it was on their way to take her home, or several boys would only invite her, the only girl, to sing karaoke, and so on...
Yui Yuigahama unceremoniously rejected all of these boys with impure intentions!
However, constantly refusing wasn't a solution either.
So, Hoshino Sora needed to make a grand entrance!
