Just one glance at him from afar, even just one, would be enough to satisfy her.

Akari Honne originally thought that.

However, after following the tracker and finding Alan, she suddenly realized, it seems like he’s alone?

Where’s that vixen?

Honne vigilantly scanned her surroundings but did not see Nozomi Sakura.

After following him for a while longer, she confirmed that alan was indeed alone.

Could it be?

The girl’s eyes darted around, a smile appeared on her face, and she ran into a nearby side road.

If Alan is alone, then it wouldn’t count as her breaking the agreement, would it?

Alan emerged from a foreign restaurant, carrying a takeout bag of food. The feeling of fullness brought a look of contentment to his face.

Perhaps his soul had already been branded, no matter how many years he lived here, he still couldn’t get used to Japanese cuisine.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t cook, his skill was edible, but it was just too much trouble, and there was no need for him to go through so much effort when he was alone, so he usually made do with instant food.

He felt his stomach, although he felt full, there was clearly still room. Alan looked at the surrounding street stalls, planning to buy some snacks for a late-night meal.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in his line of sight.

Alan’s steps paused. Although the other person was wearing a baseball cap, he could roughly recognize her just by her profile.

Honne?

He felt a slight surprise in his heart, but then he also found it quite reasonable.

In the afternoon, Honne had told him on the phone that she had arrived in Yokohama and that they would be able to meet tomorrow.

Although his relationship with the two sisters had become much more distant than before due to his relationship with Nozomi, it wasn’t so much that they wouldn’t even greet each other if they met.

Alan looked at the girl standing in front of the pan-fried bun stall, thought for a moment, and walked over.

Honne was looking down at her phone. Perhaps sensing a shadow approaching, she suddenly looked up.

She seemed to have been frowning, as if she wanted to say something, but when she saw it was Alan, her delicate eyebrows relaxed, and her red lips parted slightly.

The next second, she probably realized, her eyes sparkling brightly, and the corners of her lips turned up in a joyful expression, exclaiming.

"Alan!"

Hearing her no longer call him ’brother-in-law,’ Alan suddenly felt a little relieved and smiled at her, saying.

"What a coincidence."

Hearing him say that, Honme smile became even more radiant, and her small head nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"Yes, a coincidence, a real coincidence."

Coincidence, encounter, reunion... unexpectedly meeting the person you like is fate, it’s romantic, and it subtly carries a sense of destiny.

But if she were to act like she absolutely had to meet him, or pester him, it wouldn’t just be unromantic.

Alam would probably get impatient, and that would be counterproductive.

Even if she knew in her heart that all of this was her own careful design, as long as Alan thought it was a chance encounter, that was enough.

If he were to feel that she and he had some kind of fate, that would be even better, no matter how much effort she put in, it would be worth it.

What’s more, strictly speaking, this wasn’t entirely her own design.

If Nozomi Sakura had been with him today, she wouldn’t have met him.

So, she just had a connection with Alan, she was destined to be with him.

Just thinking of this made Akari Honme so happy she wanted to cry, constantly kneading her fingers as if she wished to melt her heart away.

Looking at the girl’s sparkling eyes, completely focused on him, Alan felt a stir in his heart, but he pretended not to notice, smiling as he asked.

"Why are you out alone? Can your sister be at ease?"

He knew Honne came to Tokyo alone, so logically, Akari Hojowouldn’t let her go out alone at night.

Hearing this, Akari Honne’s smile faded, revealing an embarrassed expression. She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, saying.

"That, that, I snuck out..."

Perhaps fearing that Alan would be angry after saying that, she looked at the young man in front of her pitifully and pouted.

"I, I’m hungry. Although I ate in the afternoon, I get hungry again at night. It’s not easy to come to Tokyo, and if I can’t have a good meal, it feels like I came for nothing."

"Besides, my sister is very busy today and has no time to bother with me..."

Hearing this, Alan narrowed his eyes and stared at Honne, saying.

"So, you didn’t tell your sister you came out?"

Stared at so intensely by him, she wanted to deny it but couldn’t speak. Akari Honne opened her mouth, and after a long pause, slowly nodded.

Seeing this, Alan immediately pulled out his phone, preparing to call Akari Hojo.

Seeing his actions, Honne froze for a moment, then reacted and quickly reached out to grab his hand, saying.

"Hey, hey, no need to call! I’m an adult, I’m seventeen! I don’t need to report everything when I go out..."

Alan glanced at her. At 1.55 meters tall, she didn’t look seventeen at all.

Wearing a middle school uniform, there probably wouldn’t be any sense of incongruity.

Standing in front of him, saying she was like a little radish head might be a bit much, but it was close enough.

Alan pressed her forehead with one hand, raised his phone, and directly called Akari Hojo.

Seeing this, Akari Honne became even more anxious and couldn’t help but stand on her tiptoes and jump in place.

"Hey, now that Alan is with me, what could possibly happen? There’s really no need to call..."

She struggled, and Alan, with one hand, found it hard to control. He looked at her seriously and said.

"Stop messing around."
