Madam, believe me, how can I be a minotaur?

Asano Makoto suddenly realized that half a minute probably wasn't enough time for Miyajima Eriko to put on so many clothes.

Not to mention she must have tried to put on her own two soaked outfits, so the actual time to put on clothes would be even shorter.

Could it be possible that she wasn't wearing anything underneath?

Of course, it was also possible that she only took off her skirt and top when she answered the door, without stripping completely.

If anything, that possibility was more likely.

Even so, Asano Makoto couldn't help but look at Miyajima Eriko in front of him again, taking a very careful look.

Unfortunately, because he was taller, his jacket was a bit big on Miyajima Eriko, with the hem almost reaching her knees.

For the same reason, even though it was completely soaked by the rain, the jacket couldn't cling to her body, so he couldn't see what was underneath.

Because he didn't see what he wanted to see, and his curiosity wasn't satisfied, Asano Makoto subconsciously sighed.

But this "boyfriend shirt" feeling seems pretty good too.

I'll have them try it again next time I get the chance...

Thinking of this, he perked up again.

On the other side, Miyajima Eriko, who had been watching him since she opened the door, naturally noticed his series of changes.

In an instant, Miyajima Eriko, who was already incredibly embarrassed for wearing so little, roughly guessed what he was thinking, and her face started to burn up.

Even her hair, which was soaked with rain, seemed to be emitting steam because of the heat.

"Asano-kun, is there something you needed when you knocked?"

She didn't have time to change clothes mainly because she was in a hurry to answer the door, and she was in a hurry to answer the door because she thought Asano Makoto had some urgent matter when she heard him knocking.

But after opening the door, he didn't say anything, and instead kept staring at her as if nothing was wrong.

So Miyajima Eriko's tone subconsciously carried a hint of annoyance.

Interestingly, Asano Makoto had done similar things before, but at that time she would feel shy, but never annoyed by these things.

Perhaps this also reflects that the relationship between the two has become very familiar compared to before.

Because when they weren't familiar before, her politeness didn't allow her to do similar things, but now that they've become close, it's okay.

But rather than saying she was angry, her annoyance at this moment was more like trying to hide her embarrassment, and the feeling of being attracted to Asano Makoto made her feel a little happy.

"Cough, well..."

Because he knew very well what he had just done, Asano Makoto, hearing that Miyajima Eriko's tone was not right, subconsciously coughed twice, trying to distract her.

He scratched the side of his face a little awkwardly and explained, "When you first went into the bathroom, I thought I'd help you put your bag away, so I picked it up, but I forgot to put it down when I came out just now, and accidentally took your bag out."

After saying this, looking at Miyajima Eriko's disbelieving expression, as if saying "you knocked just for this little thing," he immediately added, "Actually, I was planning to put it back after you finished your bath and opened the door."

"But just now someone suddenly called, and I was afraid that the caller had something urgent, so... ah! But Eriko, don't worry, I didn't touch your bag, and I didn't peek at who was calling."

Watching Asano Makoto raise one hand to swear, while handing over the bag, looking like he was afraid she would misunderstand, Miyajima Eriko couldn't help but chuckle lightly twice, and she didn't seem so angry anymore.

But she didn't have time to continue doing this.

Because after laughing, she suddenly realized what Asano Makoto's words just now meant.

After all, the only person who would call her at this time is one person.

That is her boyfriend, Yamada Yuta.

Miyajima Eriko was slightly stunned for a moment, then immediately took the handbag Asano Makoto handed over, and rummaged through it for her phone.

Because from the phone ringing to her opening the door, there was an interval of about a minute, so the call had already been hung up.

But after turning on the phone and checking the call history, she could still clearly see the name "Yamada Yuta".

Even though nothing had happened with Asano Makoto... nothing had happened yet, she couldn't help but feel a burst of tension in her heart, and subconsciously looked up at Asano Makoto in front of her.

"Uh..."

Noticing her gaze, Asano Makoto pretended to look like he didn't know anything.

After another two seconds, he said with a look of sudden realization, "Eriko, go back and return the call, close the door, I'm fine."

However, hearing this, Miyajima Eriko shook her head and said, "...No, no need, Asano-kun, you can stay here."

Saying this, without waiting for him to speak, Miyajima Eriko directly dialed her boyfriend's number in front of him, as if she had made some kind of determination.

Thus, the phone rang again.

About ten seconds later, the call connected.

The moment the call connected, she heard her familiar boyfriend's voice from the other end of the phone: "Eriko, what are you doing? Why didn't you answer the phone just now?"

"Nothing."

Facing Yamada Yuta's question, she didn't feel nervous, just slightly considered her words, and directly replied calmly, "I was just about to take a bath, but you called as soon as I entered the bathroom, so I didn't have time to answer the phone."

For some reason, while speaking, her gaze was always on Asano Makoto, her beautiful eyes staring at him intently.

Hearing this, Yamada Yuta on the other end of the phone didn't suspect much, just asked a little surprised, "You're already home? So fast?"

"No."

"Then you are--"

Before Yamada Yuta could finish saying "Then how did you take a bath," Miyajima Eriko directly explained, "I opened a hotel room outside..."

Speaking of this, she paused slightly, then added, "With Asano-kun."

Chapter 160 Washed Clean

Hearing Miyajima Eriko directly reveal his name, Asano Makoto couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise.

What surprised him even more was that when she said this, Miyajima Eriko's tone was incredibly calm, and generous and frank, without even a trace of fluctuation.

As if, opening a hotel room with him was a very common thing.

At this moment, looking at Miyajima Eriko in front of him who opened the speakerphone in front of him, Asano Makoto couldn't help but hesitate.

He was hesitating, hesitating whether he should say something.

But just as he was about to speak to Yamada Yuta on the other end of the phone to clarify his identity, Yamada Yuta asked urgently, "With Asano-kun? Where is he?"

Obviously, no matter how slow he was, after hearing Miyajima Eriko's answer, he would subconsciously start to have some doubts.

And this time, facing his question, Miyajima Eriko was silent for a while, but it was really only a short while.

Soon, she replied in that calm tone, "Of course he's outside the door, when I first entered the room I said I wanted to take a bath, and he went out directly."

How should I put it?

If you say she's lying, then it really doesn't count.

Because Asano Makoto is really outside the door now.

It's just that the door is open, and Asano Makoto is even standing opposite her.

But Yamada Yuta doesn't know this, after hearing his girlfriend's answer, he directly started to laugh awkwardly, "Ah! That's right, ahaha, yeah, after all, Asano-kun is a good person."

"Yes, he really is a very good person..."

Saying this, the beautiful eyes of Miyajima Eriko looking at Asano Makoto also flashed with a strange brilliance.

On the other side, Yamada Yuta also couldn't help but start to feel guilty.

Yeah, Asano-kun is clearly such a sensible good person, and he just subconsciously suspected him.

This is really a sin.

No matter how he thought about it, they opened a hotel room because they encountered something very special, right?

For example...

Thinking of this, Yamada Yuta also remembered the business he called for this time, and quickly said, "Eriko, did you have a typhoon there too?"

He was no longer going to ask which hotel they opened a room in, and how many rooms they opened.

After all, Asano Makoto is so sensible, he naturally considered it very carefully and booked two single rooms, or even two king-size bed rooms.

Anyway, the two of them can't be in the same room.

And Eriko is so considerate, she naturally wouldn't do anything to betray him.

Thus, he gradually relaxed, and even the last bit of suspicion in his heart had disappeared.

On the other side, after hearing his question, Miyajima Eriko nodded and said, "Yes, a typhoon suddenly came just now, and Asano-kun and I were soaked, so we found a nearby hotel to take shelter from the rain, and by the way take a bath to prevent catching a cold."

"It's the same on my side, a typhoon suddenly came, and it's so big, looking at the rain it's estimated that it won't stop for a while."

Hearing her give an affirmative answer, Yamada Yuta couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Calling you is also because of this, I was thinking that since the rain is so heavy anyway, then I simply won't go back tonight, and stay in the company to work overtime... Our boss is also very nice, and he also left us a bed in the company, saying that it's okay to live in the company every day in the future."

Saying this, he sighed, "I was originally thinking of telling you about this, so you don't have to cook for me after you go back, but I didn't expect you to encounter a typhoon and can't go back either."

"Is that so..."

Hearing her boyfriend say this, Miyajima Eriko didn't know what to say, and could only say this perfunctorily.

And after she said this, the two fell silent.

Because they didn't know what to say, no one spoke again.

After a while, Yamada Yuta, unable to bear this atmosphere, said as if he suddenly remembered, "Eriko, don't talk, go take a bath first, it's not good if you catch a cold."

"Yeah, Yuta, you also have to take care of your body, don't work overtime too late."

"Don't worry, my body is very strong!"

After saying this, before Miyajima Eriko could say anything else, Yamada Yuta directly hung up the phone.

And after hanging up the phone, Asano Makoto immediately said with some concern, "Eriko, go take a bath."

At this moment, perhaps because of the cold, Miyajima Eriko's body had already begun to tremble slightly, and even a strange red color had begun to appear on her face.

Actually, the air conditioner in the room had already been turned on, and the temperature had gradually risen.
