Chapter 324: Next Phase of the Plan (2)

As Ken was about to continue the conversation, Daichi opened his mouth once more.

“Your nutrition plan has already worked wonders for me, see.” With those words, he pulled up his shirt and showed off his abdominal muscles in which there was a clear 4 pack.

Ken’s mouth widened in shock and utter disbelief.

‘W-What the hell is this guy doing!?’

However, contrary to his expectations, Miho moved her face forward to inspect his mid section and evaluated it. She even moved her hand forwards and pinched the skin on his oblique, as if to check his body fat percentage.

“Mmm, not bad. You’ve improved a lot in a single day.” She said, pulling a notepad out of her jacket pocket.

She began to write on the page before handing it over to Daichi.

“If you want a proper nutrition and work out plan, send me a message.”

With that, she walked over to the car park area, leaving both Ken and Daichi with slackened jaws.

It wasn’t until they lost sight of her figure that the two looked at each other.

“Bro! It actually worked!” Daichi stared at the email address on the piece of paper before running over and grabbing Ken into a bear hug.

‘That worked?’

As Ken was being crushed, his mind was feeling a whole bunch of confusion.

First off he had been running for his life after dropping a bomb in the hallway with no intention other than to get as far away from the crime scene as possible.

Unexpectedly he had been caught by Miho out the front of the building who had called out to him. She’d given him some advice for both his diet and exercise since he was now part of the team.

Yet after seeing Daichi run out of the front doors, Ken had to improvise quickly. He didn’t want his brother to bring up anything about the embarrassing thing he’d been forced to do in the hallway.

His plan was to kill two birds with one stone. Shift the conversation to Daichi and prevent him from mentioning the incident.

Ken was able to work well under pressure and was moving towards the goal of setting up a mutual interest, even if it was not true. While he had no knowledge about women, he knew that it was better to start on common ground.

However, once Daichi showed his stomach, Ken had lost all hope. He had thought that he was awkward in front of women, yet his brother had taken not only the cake, but also the table it was sitting on.

But his mind was not prepared for what happened next.

Not only was Miho not weirded out by his antics, she also complimented him before giving away her email address. This was surely an unprecedented event in the “How to Pick up girls” handbook.

Only when Ken’s lungs had fully depleted their stock of air did Daichi release him from the bear hug. All thoughts of Ken’s explosive presence within the hallway were forgotten as he stared at the piece of paper in his hands.

“Dude, quickly put it into your contacts. I don’t want to see you depressed if you lose it.”

“Ah good idea! You’re the best, big bro” Daichi said with glee before bringing out his phone and furiously typing into it.

Just as Ken was shaking his head at Daichi’s reaction, he saw the players start to emerge from the main entrance with foul expressions on their face.

“Quick let’s go!” Ken said, grabbing his brother by the arm and rushing towards the car park.

Since they were the only 2 players who’d left the building, it would be pretty obvious that one of them was the perpetrator for the stink bomb laid out earlier.

Ken only stopped running when he had found his father’s car in the car park.

Daichi didn’t seem to care, or perhaps he was too preoccupied to register what had just happened. He dreamily stared at his phone, as if he was the most content he’d been in his life.

Seeing his brother like this, Ken let out an exasperated sigh.

‘Perhaps I would have been like that if I got Ai’s number in my previous life.’ He thought inwardly.

“AH”

Suddenly as he thought about Ai, he forgot that he had not replied to her messages since last night. He quickly brought out his phone and turned it on, yet there were no new messages.

‘Maybe I should call her…’

With that, he selected her contact in his phone and placed it up to his ear.

“The person you have called is unavailable, please try again later.”

At the sound of the automated message, Ken frowned. Perhaps she didn’t have reception, or her phone was out of battery.

‘Maybe I’ll stop by her house later today.’ He thought.

Before he could think much more, Chris appeared in the distance and pressed the lock button on his remote, causing the car’s horn to sound.

BEEP

“GAH!”

Daichi who was still staring at his phone, jumped up like a spooked cat, almost dropping his phone on the ground out of fright. Thankfully he managed to catch it in mid air with his amazing reflexes.

Ken had seen his father so fortunately he did not suffer the same level of shock as his brother.

“Hahaha! Got ya.” Chris said with a grin, slapping Daichi’s shoulder as he arrived.

He was in a fantastic mood since both of his boys were selected as a part of the National Team. This also meant that he could implement the next part of his plan.

“Let’s get in the car, we’ve got some good news for your mother.”

With that, he slotted his tall frame into the car and turned it on. Daichi sat in the back while Ken took the front seat since he needed the leg room.

After around 20 minutes, Chris noticed something amiss.

“Ken, why’s your brother acting like that?”

“Oh that?” Ken’s face morphed into a wry smile, “He just got Miho’s number.”

“Miho?”

“Yeah, the nutritionist for the National Team.”

“Ohhh, that Miho…” Chris turned his attention back to the road for a few moments before the words finally sunk into his mind.

“M-MIHO!?”

His voice was so loud that even Daichi who was in his own world jumped in fright.

“W-What is it Dad?” Ken saw his father’s face pale, as if someone had died and could only ask timidly.

“Miho is…”

“T-The Head Coach’s Granddaughter.”

“…”

“…”

“EHHHH!?”
