At this moment,

"By the way, darling, why haven't you asked me about that thing?"

Yukie's cheerful voice echoed in his ear.

"Huh?"

It was only when Ryuto was called like this that he suddenly came back to his senses.

"Really, darling, have you forgotten all about it? It was you who asked me to do it."

Yukie pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, right, that thing? Speaking of which, how is that thing going?"

"Hehe, of course it's going smoothly. After all, it was darling's order, and I've been working very diligently."

"Is that so?"

"So~?"

"Um?"

"Here we go again, darling is playing dumb!"

"No... I really didn't know."

"Ugh... well, it's obviously a reward. I've been working so hard, shouldn't darling give me a reward?"

"...,"

Hey, you didn't mention it beforehand! How come you're pulling this now? But since what she said was true, Ryuto couldn't argue.

So,

"What do you want then?"

He asked tentatively.

"Don't you know, darling?"

"Huh?"

Why is she turning the question back to me now? How would I know?

"...Then let's have a meal, but nothing too expensive."

After all, he didn't have much money.

"Alright, that's fine... Let's go."

She said, grabbing Ryuto's right arm.

"...,"

If it's only fine, then don't force yourself if you're not satisfied. It'll help me save some money, even though it may not be a lot for you rich folks, but it's my monthly living expenses, after all, as I'm on welfare.

By the way, what does this person want after saying so much? And this time, she's easily content, unlike when she arrived. Seems like I was overthinking it.

Well, thanks to her, my mood has improved slightly.

Thinking this, the three of them headed directly to the hotel.

They didn't encounter any strange people on the way this time, and the hotel was close, finally, they made it safely.

Just then, Ryuto suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, I haven't returned your bank cards to you yet."

Saying this, he took out the two VIP guest cards.

"Huh? Shouldn't it suffice just to sign that one?"

Yukie pouted again.

"This isn't mine, and by the way, signing that doesn't seem related to returning this."

"Ugh... darling, it's really a very worthwhile thing to do."

She complained again.

Unable to argue, Ryuto had to change the subject.

"By the way, you mentioned earlier that you arranged for those people to stay in our hotel, right?"

"Exactly, darling!"

"So, you mean you got separate rooms for them, and considering the number of people, it must be over ten rooms. Won't that cost a lot?"

"Is it? I didn't really pay attention to that."

"..."

Although Ryuto had a headache, he still spoke up.

"Isn't it strange though?"

"?"

"Because isn't your bank card in my hand? How could there be money to book a room, since that's not a small amount."

"Oh, so that's it, no big deal."

With that, Miyuki casually took out something.

"Because this bank card isn't the only one here."

"..."

Seeing another VIP card suddenly appear in front of him, Ryuto fell silent.

Oh my god...

Don't ask where the owner is going. The owner just wants to quietly leave.

To actually have two! To actually have two VIP cards! To actually have such an absurd thing exist!

How insanely wealthy is this! It's just insane.
