Thinking of the bits and pieces of the past with Zeyan, Kamisato Ayaka's heart was also unable to calm down.
Gradually, several hours passed.
As dusk fell, painting the sea with a touch of rosy red, Kamisato Ayaka knew that Thoma would be returning soon.
Had the person she longed for come?
...
Soon after, Thoma arrived before Kamisato Ayaka. "My Lady, as you instructed, all the unemployed people have been recruited. Of course, not everyone was willing to serve in the Yashiro Commission. Those who refused, I did not force them, as you instructed."
Kamisato Ayaka nodded slightly. "Show me the registration information."
Thoma immediately handed over the sheets of registration forms.
Kamisato Ayaka took the registration forms and slowly flipped through them page by page. When she reached a certain page, her hand paused, but she controlled her emotions and facial expressions very well.
However, her heart was very happy because she saw Zeyan's registration information.
After pretending to calmly look through the remaining registration information, Kamisato Ayaka handed the registration forms back to Thoma and said, "Thoma, the number of people recruited this time is sufficient. There's no need to recruit any more."
Thoma nodded. "I understand, My Lady. Then, shall I go and arrange their accommodations first?"
Kamisato Ayaka quickly said, "Wait, everyone is joining the Yashiro Commission for the first time after all. I think it would be good to communicate with them properly. Later, Thoma, please have everyone come to see me in order..."
Hearing Kamisato Ayaka's instructions, Thoma looked a little surprised. He hadn't expected Kamisato Ayaka to value these newly recruited people so much, or rather, to be so gentle.
Was she afraid that those foreigners wouldn't feel a sense of belonging, so she wanted to reassure them?
But no matter what, since this was Kamisato Ayaka's order, Thoma naturally wouldn't refuse.
...
Returning to the Kamisato Estate, Zeyan's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
He used to come and go freely in this vast mansion, leaving his footprints in most places. But now, it was heavily guarded, no longer a place where he could wander around casually.
In such a place, how long would it take for him to see Kamisato Ayaka again?
Just as Zeyan was thinking this, Thoma had already walked out and, looking over the crowd, said, "Everyone, you are very lucky. Today, the Young Lady plans to meet each of you in turn to encourage you. After all, you are all unemployed, and most of you are foreigners. Your previous days must not have been easy, right? Our Young Lady is very understanding, so you have this treatment. When you see the Young Lady later, you must show sufficient courtesy. If anyone behaves too disgracefully, don't blame me, Thoma, for being impolite."
Everyone was surprised to hear Thoma's words.
The Kamisato Young Lady was actually going to meet each of them in turn?
Zeyan was also stunned, and then sighed inwardly at Kamisato Ayaka's gentleness.
He believed what Thoma said. Kamisato Ayaka must have chosen to meet everyone in turn to comfort them. This was very much like Kamisato Ayaka.
"Those whose names I call, follow me in. Those whose names are not called, wait here for now," Thoma said, picking up the registration list in his hand and calling out the first name.
As the name was called, a person from Fontaine immediately walked out nervously and followed Thoma into the house in front.
Zeyan also felt a bit nervous at this time.
After all, according to this situation, he would also see Kamisato Ayaka in a while. How should he behave then?
Thinking about it, Zeyan couldn't help but drift off a bit, until the first person who had entered the house came out again, and he regained his attention, looking towards that person.
The returning person from Fontaine had a smile all over his face and said to everyone, "Miss Kamisato is really too kind. She even prepared food to treat me. That plate of Tempura was so delicious."
Hearing this, the others showed even more anticipation.
Thoma also came out and called out the second person's name.
One by one, people took their turns. Each person's visit didn't last too long, and after coming out, they would all marvel at Miss Kamisato's beauty and elegance.
Of course, everyone would also mention the delicious food Miss Kamisato used to treat them. Each person's food was different, but most were Inazuman specialties, with occasional foreign dishes.
Gradually, it was Zeyan's turn.
"Zeyan, follow me."
Thoma said and turned to enter the house.
Zeyan took a deep breath and quickly followed Thoma.
Entering the house, the first thing he saw was a hall. On both sides were doors leading to different rooms. After entering here, Thoma didn't go any further but pointed in a direction for Zeyan to go.
In the room over there, the light of lanterns radiated, appearing quiet and elegant.
Zeyan pushed the door open, and the first thing that caught his eye was a wooden tea table, and behind the tea table, a beautiful and elegant girl kneeling there.
It was Kamisato Ayaka.
Seeing Zeyan's arrival, Kamisato Ayaka suppressed the turmoil in her heart and, on the surface, pretended to be calm, saying with a smile, "You are Zeyan, right? It seems we have met before?"
Zeyan pursed his lips and said, "Yes, we met at a stall today."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled and said, "To think we could meet again tonight, it's such a coincidence. People often say that when coincidences happen, it means wonderful things are about to arrive. I hope all of this is true."
Speaking of coincidence, Kamisato Ayaka knew very well that it wasn't a coincidence. After all, Zeyan was here because of her actions.
Everything was deliberately created by her.
"Please sit down," Kamisato Ayaka gestured for Zeyan to take a seat.
Zeyan sat down, looking at Kamisato Ayaka's delicate face. Every inch of her fair skin had been deeply kissed by him, and he knew the temperature of every part of her body very well. But this incredibly familiar person now had to be treated almost like a stranger, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
Because of this discomfort, Zeyan was silent for a moment, afraid that if he spoke, he would subconsciously say something inappropriate.
Kamisato Ayaka's pair of ice-blue beautiful eyes gazed at Zeyan, feeling that the young man before her completely overlapped with the young man in her memory, making her almost say "I missed you."
But she knew she couldn't. Right now, they were almost strangers. How could she say such words? That would definitely scare him.
Kamisato Ayaka could only say, "Zeyan, this is food prepared for you. Do you like it?"
