Chapter 37 Mitsukasa Airi's Jealousy

Mitsukasa Airi’s Jealousy

“Well, brother-in-law. I’ll take my leave here.”

“Yes, do your best in class!”

Hana-chan nodded politely and turned away, and I watched her walk away until she was out of sight.

Alone at last, I headed to the company for the first time in a while.

After entering the building and taking the elevator, I went to my department, where Mishi-san greeted me.

“Hey, Ucchi! Long time no see!”

“Mishi-san, it’s been a while. Even if it’s only a few days.”

“Hey, don’t say that!”

Mishi-san flicked my forehead lightly with her finger.

But it didn’t hurt at all. It was more like a tickle.

“Anyway, I look forward to working with you again from today on.”

“Yes, me too.”

We laughed and shook hands.

Then the section chief came. However, his complexion looked a bit bad.

“Hey, you two… You’re getting along as usual.”

“Section Chief, good morning.”

“Good morning, boss! Eh, you look a little sick. Are you okay?”

“Yeah, it’s just a hangover. You seem fine, Uchida.”

“Well, I can handle my a🬀cohol….”

He looked so exhausted that even Mishi-san could see it. He put his hand on his head and made a painful expression.

It must be a hangover from the drinking yesterday.

You don’t have to force yourself to come to the office.

As I thought that, Mishi-san looked at me and the section chief alternately with a puzzled expression.

“Eh, what is this? Were you two drinking together yesterday? Then why didn’t you invite me?”

Mishi-san pouted slightly and looked a little unhappy.

The Section Chief laughed and replied to her, “Haha….”

“Of course you can’t; I wanted to take this guy to be healed by the girls at the ConCafe.”

“…Eh?”

Mishi-san’s expression changed when she heard what the section chief said.

Her eyes became fixed, and her aura became slightly cool.

I wasn’t the only one who felt this.

“…What is it? Is the air conditioner too strong?”

No, the air conditioner is not on, Section Chief.

But I understand how you feel. It’s like we’re in an icy place where we are.

“…Hey, Ucchi. What’s going on…?”

Mishi-san slowly turned her head towards me, so slowly that I could almost hear a creak.

There was no light in her eyes.

Scary, too scary. This is the first time I’ve seen Mishi-san like this.

“A, ano… Mishi-san?”

“O, oi… Mishi? What’s wrong?”

“Just be quiet, boss!”

“Hik, I’m sorry….”

The section chief, who had been treated coldly and carelessly by Mishi-san, let out a small cry and fell silent.

To be told to shut up by your subordinate, even though he’s the Section Chief… but there’s nothing you can do about it. Mishi-san now has a terrifying aura that seems to allow no one to say anything.

“…Ucchi, come here!”

“Eh? No, I’m going to work now….”

“Just do it!”

“Hik…!?”

“It’s okay, right, boss? I can take Ucchi with me, right? …I’ll be right back.”

“Y-yes….”

Mishi-san is now in complete control.

Mishi-san, who had forcibly obtained permission from the intimidated Section Chief, grabbed my arm and forcibly dragged me out of the office.

The place she went to was, as expected, the rooftop.

Once there, I was pushed against the wall near the exit and pinned by Mishi-san.

“…So, what’s going on?”

“W, what is…?”

“Why did you go to the ConCafe without telling me…?”

“A, no… I was tricked by the Section Chief….”

“No, that’s not it. I’m asking why you went to another girl’s place when I was here!”

“Hik…!?”

I let out a small cry again, intimidated by her oppressive manner, her eyes wide open.

Even though it was pathetic, her aura was so terrifying that I was scared.

“Hey, Ucchi… answer me?”

“That, that’s….”

“Ucchi, I’m here, right? Hey, isn’t that right? You don’t need any other women, right?”

“A, ano… to close… your… face….”

Mishi-san’s face was close to mine as she looked at me, and my heart raced.

Even though it’s a face I see all the time, Mishi-san, the cute girl.

As a man, being stared at at close range by a girl like this makes you aware of her.

But combined with her scary atmosphere, it makes me nervous in different ways.

“…Tsk, I let my guard down. I didn’t think the Section Chief would bring Ucchi to a place like that….”

“Mi, Mishi-san…?”

“Well, there’s nothing I can do… Even though it’s a little early, I guess I have no choice but to put the plan into action….”

What a dangerous thing to mutter!

What does she mean by plan? What will she do to me?

I’m afraid that I want to run away from this place, but because Mishi-san has me pinned to the wall, I can’t escape as I want.

Then Mishi-san whispered to me softly.

“Don’t go to places like that anymore, okay? The girls there are just being friendly as part of their job. There’s no deep meaning behind it. They just think about extorting money from you. That’s their job. A relationship based only on money is no different from your ex-wife. So don’t trust other women. You only have me. Just trust me. You don’t need other women. Understand?”

Mishi-san spoke at length while staring into my eyes.

Every single word seemed to say something to me, and for some reason, I understood that what she said was right.

When I nodded my head, Mishi-san smiled with satisfaction.

“Fufufu, I’m glad. I’m sorry for scaring you… but I had to do it because I care about you. Do you understand?”

“A, ah… I understand.”

“Good, good. Let’s go back to the office!”

Saying that she took my hand and started walking toward the exit.

Strangely, I just accepted it without any questions.
