Chapter 1722 Chiba Trip 2
After a few hours of the trip, both Haru and Maki had almost arrived at the city where he lived in the past, but rather than a city, it was more suitable to be called a village than a bustling town like Tokyo.
Maki saw that there were many fields around the surrounding area, which somehow made her a bit amazed since it was her first time seeing a lot of fields. She was a city girl, after all, and she didn't really have a hobby to go on a trip, especially when both of her parents were very busy with their careers.
"First time seeing something like this?" Haru asked.
"Um." Maki nodded with a smile.
"Try to open the window. I'm sure the air tastes different here," Haru said and turned off the air conditioner of the car.
Maki then opened the window of the car and took her head out from the window.
"……" Haru was speechless, but he didn't say anything since there was nothing here. There was no car, people along the street where they drove, or he wouldn't let Maki head out of the window. He had to admit that even though Maki seemed a bit mature, she also had many childish sides.
"It tastes good," Maki said with a surprise since she could see the difference between the air in this city and Tokyo.
"If you gather the air in this city, you might be able to sell it in Tokyo," Haru said.
"Huh?" Maki was dumbfounded and asked, "Is there any stupid person who is buying air just like that?" If it was oxygen, then she understood. After all, the hospital needed it, and some mountain climbers also needed it, but the air in this city-like village, she didn't think that someone wanted to buy such a thing.
"Unexpectedly, someone will buy it," Haru said simply.

"Well, if the one who says such a business opportunity is someone else, then I might not believe it, but if the one who says it is you, then…" After all, she knew that Haru was the richest man on earth, so she felt some truth in his words.
"So, do you want to sell the air in this place?"
"No, it's too troublesome."
"That's true."
Neither of them lacked money, after all, and Haru had just gotten a huge amount of wealth, so it was better to be low-key for a while.
"Let's take a break first. There's a store in front of us," Haru said.
"Store? Not a convenience store?' Maki asked.
"It's a village-style convenience store," Haru said.
"Is there such a store?" Maki asked.
"……" Haru looked at Maki and wondered why it felt like he was a tourist guide who taught an oblivious rich lady about village life?
"Well, let's just stop buying a drink or two," Haru said.
"Um." Maki nodded.
Haru parked his car near the store and entered the store together with Maki.
How to say… it could be said the moment both Maki and Haru entered the store together, they had become a center of attention. After all, both of them were handsome guys and beautiful girls. Their sense of fashion caused everyone in the store and that both of them were coming from the city, and a rich one at that, especially when they saw the car outside.
Maki was an idol, so she had gotten used to the stare of people, or rather she also stared at everyone curiously since it was her first time to see someone in the village.
Haru didn't wear glasses this time. After all, even though he had said that he would wear them, he didn't say that he would wear them immediately. In such a small city, he was sure that the people in this city didn't know much about him, after all, it had been a while since he came to this city, and even though in the past, he had a lot of news, he had been quite low-key in the past few months, after all, he controlled the media, so he always stayed a low-key.
Then Haru noticed a cute girl who was wearing a shrine maiden outfit. He looked at the girl, and the girl also looked at him. Both of them stared at each other for a while, and the girl started to blush, but Maki pulled his ear.
"Is she so cute?" Maki asked with a frown.
"What's wrong, Akira-chan? You should be in a hurry. They're waiting for you," the staff of the store said to the girl that was wearing a shrine maiden outfit.
"Ah, that's right! Thank you, Aunty!" The girl with the shrine maiden outfit then left, but before she left, she glanced at Haru and said, "See you later, Haru-kun."
Haru, of course, heard the girl's voice, but he didn't have time to reply. After all, he needed to calm down Maki. "You misunderstood me. I have just met her. We played with each other when we were children…"
"Oh? She's your so-called childhood friend in this city? I wonder how many childhood friends you have there?" Maki said sourly, feeling very jealous.
Haru then held Maki's hand and said, "You don't need to think too much. Among my childhood friends, you're the most special one, or rather, you're the most special to me now."
"Hmph! I'm not as easy as you think!" Maki pouted, but she moved closer to him.

Haru shook his head and said, "Let's buy some ingredients here since there isn't much of a food store in this place."
"Don't worry. I'll help you to cook!" Maki said while patting her chest.
"………" Haru.
Maki and Haru left the store and were about to enter their car again, but when they were about to enter, they saw a luxurious sedan pass over them.
Maki was a bit surprised and said, "There's a rich people here?" She thought that most people here were farmers, so she was quite surprised when she saw a luxurious sedan pass over them.
"……" Haru.
"Have you heard about the landowner?" Haru somehow needed to teach his girl since this girl was too ignorant, right?
Inside the luxurious black sedan, a beautiful maid in her mid-20s, letting out a drool when she saw Haru.
Besides the maid, there was a girl who was also staring at Haru too since she didn't expect to see him in this place. After all, unlike everyone in the city that was ignorant, she knew very well who Haru was, and he was also her childhood friend, even though they had been separated for the past few years. 'But who is the girl beside him?' She frowned and wondered who that red-haired girl was.
"Milady, milady, stop the car! I want to talk with that boy! He's my type!" The maid said without hesitation.
"…………"
Haru and Maki then drove to his house in this city, but both of them were stunned when they saw his house.
"…Is this your house?" Maki asked.
"Um." Haru nodded and didn't expect to see a huge tree slam into the house and destroy some part of the house. He then looked at Maki and said, "Should we live in the inn?"
