The first stage, the female second and third party news upgrade

In late July 2013, the two were witnessed shopping in a supermarket in Nishiazabu, Tokyo, and then took a taxi straight to the hotel in the city center and both entered the room. The next day, after the two checked out, they rode for a drive to Hayama in Kanagawa. On the third day, both left the hotel. At that time, Zheng Encai said that the rumors of love with Ryo Kase were not true. A friend in Japan gave birth to a child and was on vacation. Ryo Kase, a friendly, acted as a tour guide.
