Chapter 1187: A Very Helpful Junior

It’s funny that Marika easily crumbled like that. But thinking about it, it must be truly bizarre for her. Asking her to kiss me out of nowhere, I would be doubting her naivety if she accepted it so easily.

Nonetheless, that phrase finally allowed me to take control of this situation.

I put on a gentle smile and slowly pulled her back close to me. In this case, she also had no control over it.

Although she backed away reflexively, she actually failed to completely extract herself from me. I mean, with how close we were, she had to use her feet to support her. And with one of them locked in my grasp on top of my lap, it became impossible for her. Unless I let her go willingly or I back away voluntarily, we’ll never get out of this daring situation.

Anyway, I also kept an eye out for those men in suits outside. Given that they hadn’t reacted, there was no bug for them to listen in.

Yeah. That’s one minor reason why I boldly declared that. To see if they’re actually monitoring what’s happening inside this car through our voices.

I guess it’s either they trusted Kujou-senpai to have full control of the situation or she ordered them not to disturb us.

Unfortunately for her, it worked out in my favor.

Knocking that possibility off my list of apprehensions, I felt even more relaxed.

Well then, time to fully take advantage of this situation. What should I do with her? Steal her from Ichihara Jun? Or use her the same way she tried to use me?

No. Gonna have to wait and see first what’s going to happen in the following days after this.

“I have no idea senpai is this maiden-like. Reserving your first kiss, huh? Alright. I’ll compromise not to ask you for it. Instead…” While the first part renewed the light of hope in her eyes, Kujou-senpai's face gradually got filled with dread when I trailed my voice once more.

It already happened once. She knew it wouldn’t be a good thing and she was bracing herself for it.

She reached for my sleeve and lightly tugged it. A pleading gesture.

I ignored it though and when the distance between our faces became almost nonexistent once more, I continued.

“… I’ll be kissing you.”

“Huh?! Are you crazy, Junior-kun? That’s no different from asking me to kiss you!”

Oh? So, she could still think clearly. That’s great. But even if reason still lingers in her mind, I doubt she’d be able to beat me in twisting logic.

Her mistake was to start this with me. She should have let me go when I said so but now it’s too late for her. I would be making my mark on her mind. Enough for her to continue thinking about me even when she’s with that guy.

Right. This felt like an old method I used before. Not with the girls I have on my side presently but with someone who I let go. Let’s see. It’s with that girl whose boyfriend challenged me and got beaten up. The girl who I let go of when she chose him.

Anyway, it’s nothing new and their circumstances weren’t the same.

Seconds later, I acted like I was contemplating her words but while doing so, I moved my hand upwards, slipping underneath her skirt and settling there just before where her most sensitive parts were hidden. Following that, my fingers crawled further to touch her perky buttocks, drawing another reaction from her – Kujou-senpai dropped her hand on top of it, preventing my hand from moving further. And looking at her expression, she looked like she wanted to scold me for being naughty. However, no words came out of her mouth.

Not waiting for her to form the words she needed, I pushed my face closer. But instead of taking her lips, I veered away from them, aiming at just a few centimeters to the side.

One second, two seconds… Three.

I waited for her to push me away but she didn’t arrive. Instead, both of her hands were now at my chest clutching my uniform tightly. Her eyes were closed shut and her eyelids twitched as though she was trying her hardest not to open them and see what was happening.

Upon seeing that, I pulled back and relaxedly replied to her words before this.

“Is it? I don’t think so. You’ll still be able to reserve your first ‘initiated’ kiss for whoever’s going to be your husband, right? Besides, it’s done, senpai. I kissed you.”

“Huh? Is that…?” She appeared confused but that’s just the effect of the earlier suggestion. She thought I would go for her lips. However, because it didn’t happen, the girl was left at a loss.

But that’s fine. I still have more in store for her. She’s already dancing right to the tune I am playing. No point in breaking its rhythm.

“Yes, it is. I didn’t say I’m going to kiss you on your lips, right? Too bad though, we failed to capture it with your camera. What does senpai think about a redo? Here.”

Without waiting for her to completely recover from that, I handed the phone back to her.

She listlessly grabbed it from my hand, stared at it for a few seconds, and raised her gaze.

“No! That’s not good, Junior-kun! It’s too… daring! Jun-kun will—”

At this point, the dawn of realization fell upon her. However, instead of focusing on what I did, the girl’s next words were only a direct response to what I suggested.

Either she accepted what happened or her mind just couldn’t catch up to that and she only focused on what was easily understandable.

“Will what? Say, what’s your goal here, senpai? Are you just going to make him jealous or do you want him to stop chasing after other girls?”

After dropping that question, my hand on her back climbed upwards, slipping beneath her golden ringlets. It continued up to her nape and the back of her head, combing through her silky-smooth hair.

Holding her head like this, Marika started becoming flustered. But even then, she didn’t do much to get me off of her.

She was taken in by my question and entered some sort of meditative state as she searched for an answer.

Part of her focus was on me though… And perhaps expecting what I was about to do, she gradually closed her eyes again.

“Don’t worry, senpai. I won’t kiss you there again. Let’s do it like this.” Upon whispering that, I tilted my head to the side before pushing it forward. Furthermore, I pressed my whole face close to her nape, inhaling her wonderful scent and lightly kissing it. In this way, my face wouldn’t be in the photo but the angle and position would be more daring than just straight up capturing a kiss.

Perhaps tickled by my breath, Marika visibly shivered. Then, acknowledging what I presented, I heard the clicking sound of the phone, indicating the photo that had just been taken.

Going back to my previous position, Marika wordlessly presented me with her phone and the photo that she took.

Because the angle was high enough, Marika had her head raised, showing her flawless neck. Moreover, it also captured the lower part of my head; specifically, my chin as well as my lips that were shamelessly pressed on the side of her neck.

“Mhm. You captured it well, senpai. Unless you tell him, he won’t recognize me.” I praised the girl but she only returned a complicated gaze.

“Junior-kun, you’re devious.”

“Am I? But I’m not the one who thought of this plan. And certainly not the one who took the photo. That aside, don’t mind It too much, senpai. You succeeded in what you planned and I got myself an assurance as well as a great time with you. What do you think? I’m your very helpful junior, no?” I put on the same gentle smile that’s truly contradictory to my words and actions before releasing her from my grasp.

I was expecting her to come up with a shrewd or even angered response. But for the second time, she’s speechless.

In this way, I excused myself from the girl and got out of the car after fully taking advantage of the situation she created.
