#313 - Chapter 310 Self-knowledge
"Feeding each other?"
Iriya seemed momentarily confused about how to do that.
"Oh... it's just that since this event started, there have been quite a few people pretending to be couples to get a cheap deal, so I thought of this method."
The landlady explained, "If you're feeding each other mouth-to-mouth, people pretending to be couples usually can't do that, right?"
"I see..."
Iriya nodded.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, she turned to Amau Shiraya and said, "Then, Shiraya-senpai, let's do it now."
What tiger and wolf words?!
What Iriya said was too easily misunderstood.
"Here are two candied haws for you. If you can do as I said, you only have to pay for one skewer. Otherwise, you'll have to pay for both."
The landlady handed Amau Shiraya and Iriya two relatively large candied haws.
These two skewers only had three haws each, but they also had bananas and strawberries in between.
"Mouth-to-mouth feeding, it should be done like this, right?"
At this time, Iriya took the lead in trying to do as the landlady asked.
She bit one of the haws in her mouth and slowly moved closer to Amau Shiraya.
Although her face was slightly flushed, she didn't seem to have any resistance.
"...Iriya, you don't have to force yourself."
Amau Shiraya couldn't help but say.
In his opinion, if it was just for a buy-one-get-one-free deal, there was no need to force herself.
However, Iriya ignored what Shiraya said and moved closer and closer until she fed the hawthorn candy to Shiraya mouth-to-mouth.
Mainly because she had just bitten the candied haw, so even if she wanted to respond, she couldn't open her mouth to speak, so...

It wasn't until the candied haw was fed into Shiraya-senpai's mouth that Iriya was able to say, "Really, Shiraya-senpai just said something to me, and now he's already forgotten it?"
"You mean..."
Amau Shiraya immediately remembered what he had said before, about how when a boy sees the girl he likes showing a happy expression or something.
"I already said that I like Shiraya-senpai, so what's there to force?"
Iriya said immediately.
This also corresponded to what Amau Shiraya had said before, liking... there is no such thing as forcing.
"That's true..."
Amau Shiraya smiled slightly awkwardly.
"Okay, now it's Shiraya-senpai's turn~"
Iriya said with a smile.
At this point, Amau Shiraya couldn't back down at the last minute.
After he ate the candied haw that Iriya had just fed him, he did the same thing.
He bit off one of the candied haws in his hand and fed it to Iriya...
[Ding! The host has completed mouth-to-mouth feeding with Iriya, reward: 50 Fusion Points!]
"So sweet, so delicious~"
Iriya said with a look of joy.
At this time, the landlady was watching with great interest.
She liked to see these young couples who were still very green, which was why she held this promotional event.
"Okay!"
The landlady clapped her hands and said with a happy face, "I already believe that you are definitely a very loving couple. These two candied haws are for you."
"Huh?"
Iriya looked at the landlady with a slightly puzzled expression.
"That is to say, it's free, no money needed."
The landlady emphasized again.
"Didn't you say buy one get one free? Why did it become free?"
The landlady said bluntly.
"Oh, oh."
Iriya nodded.
Although she understood, she thought she should still pay the money she owed.
But the landlady refused to accept it, and in the end, Iriya could only use her extraordinary speed to put the bill in the landlady's pocket. By the time the landlady reacted, Iriya had already pulled Amau Shiraya away.
"Shiraya-senpai, does it taste good?"
At this time, Iriya asked Amau Shiraya.
"Yeah, I haven't eaten candied haws in a long time."
Amau Shiraya nodded.
"Me too. It's not easy to come across candied haws usually. It feels even more delicious when you eat it once in a while, especially when it's fed by Shiraya-senpai."
Iriya said with a smile.
"Indeed, it feels different from when I usually eat it myself."
Amau Shiraya nodded slightly.
"That just now should be considered an indirect kiss, right? I suddenly realized that I can only understand the beauty of it after experiencing it myself. Just reading about it in books doesn't give you that feeling at all."
Obviously, Iriya was exploring her ignorant love affairs.
"That's for sure."
Amau Shiraya responded.
"And I also heard that the feeling of a direct kiss is even better than an indirect kiss. Shiraya-senpai, do you think that's true?"
Iriya continued.
"That's for sure."
Amau Shiraya didn't pay attention to what she was saying and subconsciously continued to respond.
But he immediately reacted and immediately changed his words: "...Wait, although that's true, it's best to think carefully about this kind of thing."
"But the books I read say that kissing someone you like is a very normal thing, isn't it?"
Iriya asked Amau Shiraya with a pure face.
This question made Amau Shiraya unable to refute for a while, and he immediately began to talk about a lot of high-sounding principles, "It's okay to say that, but it's better to think things through more carefully. After all, this should be your first time, right? A first kiss is worth cherishing for everyone, so you can't just give it away so easily..."
It wasn't that he was being awkward here, but that he was thinking of Iriya.
If he was purely selfish, Iriya's various proactive behaviors would not cost him anything, and instead, he would be taking advantage of Iriya.
But he obviously didn't want to be so selfish...
After all, Iriya didn't seem to know much about love, making it seem like he was coaxing the innocent and pure Iriya.
And he was very aware of his own... scumbag status, so he didn't want Iriya to so easily...

ps: The matter of returning to school has been completed (the deputy class leader has to move books, etc.), and the completion of the new book should also be caught up with the schedule, otherwise, after the official start of classes tomorrow, there will be even less energy.
