Munni hadn’t been to the restaurant for a while, so she thought of going there with Yisen before going to Purple Clouds Mountain for Christmas to see how everyone was doing.
At noon, the two arrived at the restaurant, which was busy, but the staff didn’t hesitate to greet her warmly upon seeing her.
Munni enthusiastically greeted everyone individually before heading to the kitchen.
Fujino Doxu was busy in the kitchen, and upon hearing footsteps, he assud it was an employee and continued with his work without looking up.
Until the footsteps stopped beside him, and he sensed soone standing next to him, he frowned and lifted his head to see who was slacking off in his space.
However, when he t Munni’s smiling eyes, there was a mont of surprise on his face.
"Munni, what are you doing here?"
"Well, I haven’t seen you for a while, and I miss you... and your cooking!"
Her answer made Fujino Doxu chuckle helplessly; he continued his swift movents and calmly asked, "Is your foot injury better?"
"Yeah, much better."
"By the way."
"Hmm?"
"I proposed to my girlfriend last night."
As he spoke, he looked up at Munni again, his attractive dark eyes filled with enviable happiness.
"Oh my gosh! Really? Congratulations, Fujino!!"
"But she refused ."
"...!" Munni’s rising excitent was instantly extinguished by his words.
"I’m kidding; she agreed to beco Mrs. Fujie."
"...!" Munni pouted in disdain at Fujino Doxu’s teasing behavior.
Yisen returned from the restroom, and upon being told Munni went to the kitchen, he also followed her there.
At that mont, Munni was eagerly discussing the engagent party with Fujino Doxu.
"Fujino, when do you plan to hold the engagent party? Why not have it at the restaurant? The venue and food are free; there’s only one requirent."
"What’s the requirent?"
"Make sure you are happy."
Her so-called request made Fujino Doxu giggle uncontrollably, "I will."
Fujino Doxu glanced at Yisen, who had just entered the kitchen, standing behind a shelf, watching Munni affectionately and dotingly.
Fujino Doxu withdrew his gaze from Yisen and asked Munni, "How about you? When do you plan to remarry Yisen?"
Munni shrugged, "I don’t know, just go with the flow. But... I feel I’m not as resistant to remarrying as before. Isn’t that a good sign?"
Munni’s lips softened into a gentle smile, and she continued, "Initially, I thought that my lack of resistance to remarriage was because I’ve reached the age to settle down; seeing my friends paired up and so even with kids, I envied them and wanted a ho of my own.
Later, I realized that it wasn’t like that at all; it’s more important because... he is Yisen, the man I’ve been obsessed with for over a decade. So many years have passed, and I still like him.
Even though my previous marriage with him wasn’t perfect, I couldn’t help but look forward to our next marriage.
And strangely, I’m confident, believing we’ll grow old together.
Fujino, I think I’ve fallen for Yisen in this lifeti, so I should strive for a happy ending. That’s what I’m telling myself."
