man in tokyo, professional boyfriend

Chapter 389 [388] Very capable!
"Good morning!"

"Did you get up early today, Maki?"

Shiina's mother, who was busy in the kitchen early in the morning, turned her head and glanced at her daughter behind her. Shiina Maki, who just woke up, was only wearing the loose suspender pajamas, her hair was disheveled, and she was rubbing the corners of her eyes sleepily.

Seeing that Chiyoko Shiina was a little puzzled:
"Did you not sleep well last night?"

"Well, a little bit."

"Really? Seems like it's too crowded for four people to live in your room?" Chiyoko Shiina looked as expected, rubbed her chin and muttered, "Sure enough, Shino and Iori should live together."

".It's not crowded at all!"

After only listening to the first half of the sentence, Shiina Maki seemed to be suddenly stimulated to wake up, and her whole body was excited to speak.

"Huh~"

Shiina's mother looked at her daughter's flustered cute look with subtle eyes, and smiled playfully:
"is it?"

"Mmmmmmm!"

With Chiyoko Shiina's playful smile, Maki Shiina nodded her head vigorously, her disheveled hair swaying wildly.

As if thinking of something, Maki immediately changed the subject and said:
"That, that. That's right! Where's Nini?"

"Have you gone out yet?"

"I went out for morning exercises after six o'clock in the morning."

Chiyoko Shiina seemed to have seen the picture she wanted, so she turned her head in satisfaction and continued to make breakfast for the whole family: "Student Terashima also went out together, maybe it will take a while to get home?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Seeing that her mother didn't want to go further into the topic just now, Shiina Maki secretly heaved a sigh of relief, turned her head and walked towards the bathroom with bare feet, ready to wash up.

Little feet pattered on the slightly old wooden floor, Maki Shiina rubbed the corners of her eyes sleepily.

When going to bed last night, Yui-chan's sleeping posture was obviously very honest at first, but just after entering the middle of the night, she suddenly became agitated for some reason, as if she was dreaming, talking in her sleep while dreaming.

If the bed was a little bigger, Shiina Maki thought that she would be very interested in recording the whole process of Yui's dreaming, and then share it with Nini.

But the two of them slept in a closet last night!

This time, Maki, who was sleeping with Yui in her arms, suffered.

Yui, who looks obviously weak and weak on weekdays, somehow becomes extraordinarily strong when dreaming, almost holding herself in her arms like a baby, and the overly full seal made her almost suffocate several times in a row , and Yui-chan was hugging her and muttering nonsense like 'I hope you're not good today, I usually eat well'.

She was so tormented that she didn't sleep well for half the night.

Later, I simply waited with my eyes open from the middle of the night until the morning.

Up to now, Shiina Maki is naturally sleepy and dizzy.

"No, I have to finish brushing my teeth quickly to replenish Nini's energy."

While gurgling and spitting bubbles in front of the mirror, Maki Shiina muttered secretly: "I'm so sleepy today, I have to replenish two units!"

Just as he was thinking so, he heard a ding-dong ding-dong doorbell coming from outside the door.

Shiina Maki's eyes lit up first, and then she even forgot to take off the toothbrush, stomping on the floor and ran to the door:
"Come here~"

"Nini?"

Opening the door, Shiina Maki's movements suddenly stopped.

"Oh hiss! Maki-chan."

"You got up early today?"

The visitor's voice was hearty and concise, with a slightly imperceptible Kansai accent, and he always flicked his tongue unconsciously when he finished speaking.

The one standing at the door was obviously not Shiina Iori.

It was a tall, mature woman wearing a pair of white suspender jeans. She dyed a head of neat short hair that was pale yellow like a maple leaf, and her skin was slightly darker. The gap, the smile is very energetic, and the appearance is beautiful and generous. He looks like he is 30 years old, or 40-[-] years old, which makes people's judgment unclear for a while.

Shiina Maki was a little unresponsive when she saw the other person for the first time, and after a while of identification, she seemed to gradually recognize the person.

"Are you, Aunt Ryoko?!"

"Why did you dye your hair yellow?"

However, before Maki could continue to ask, someone pinched her tender cheeks in the middle and kneaded them vigorously. The beautiful face showed a terrifying expression like a husky suddenly scowling. Draw a long tone word by word:

"Cool! Son! Sister! Sister——!"

".Yes!"

Shiina Maki, whose face was pinched, answered with difficulty.

After getting an affirmative answer, Natsume Ryoko smiled and let go, and explained as if she didn't care about the appearance just now: "Oh, Maki-chan, you are really, for a young woman like me who is not yet 40 years old. What nonsense are you talking about Obasan! If you change someone else, you will be angry."

"You didn't just now"

"Not angry~"

"Obviously already."

"No~"

Maki Shiina, who was still a little sleepy, saw that Natsume Ryoko's expression had gradually changed from the plain to hideous, so she gave up her plan to stick to the truth, sighed helplessly, and whispered:
"But Liang Zisang, is it alright for you to come directly to our house like this?"

"Our mother, Mr. Shang, issued a warrant for you because of what happened last time!"

"I told you it's sister Ryoko~!"

Natsume Ryoko forced herself to defend herself, and then said indifferently: "You said that, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter~ I don't even care about it, and Miss Chiyoko will definitely not care about it."

Shiina Maki squinted at her, and pointed out the truth directly with extremely bitter words: "No, I think my mother will definitely care."

"Last time, you almost sent Dad to an uninhabited island to spend your honeymoon with you!"

"That kind of thing, you can't even think about it, right?"

"cough cough"

As soon as the last incident was mentioned, Natsume Ryoko couldn't help but blushed, coughing uncontrollably and interrupting Shiina Maki's exposing activities, trying to change the subject forcibly:
"That! Anyway, call Qiuhai out first!"

"Since Maki-chan, you have said so, then I will talk to him outside first."

Probably because of her old background being exposed just now, Natsume Ryoko's voice seemed vaguely guilty.

It’s just that halfway through the conversation, it seemed that she felt that she was too weak like this, Natsume Ryoko forced herself to raise her spirits, picked up the adult’s airs and said: “Also, Maki-chan! The affairs of adults are very complicated, you can’t generalize like this Oh!"

Maki Shiina looked at her more and more disgustedly, and said with a poisonous tongue:

"Yes, Aunt Ryoko."

"elder sister!!"

Natsume Ryoko was furious: "Hurry up and call Qiuhai out!"

"Yes, yes~"

Shiina Maki didn't bother to pay attention to her, and was about to turn around and go back to call someone, but her footsteps stopped suddenly.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Chiyoko Shiina holding a kitchen knife at this time, with her long, smooth hair draped over her shoulders in front of her body, and her eyes were softly looking at the woman outside the entrance.

In an instant, Shiina Maki felt as if time had frozen.

Natsume Ryoko outside the door also seemed to be stunned.

"That. Mom? Kitchen knife~kitchen knife~"

Stiff for half a second, Shiina Maki reacted first, tried to take the knife from her mother's hand and returned, but was dodged by her mother's inadvertent little movements.

Shiina's mother's voice is still gentle, the kitchen knife in her hand shines:

"Hey?"

"It's Ryoko."

"Want to come in and sit?"

Hearing this, Maki, who was following behind the mother and trying to grab the knife, immediately turned her head in the direction of Natsume Ryoko, blinked wildly and shook her head, her hair almost flew up.

However, Natsume Ryoko seemed to be completely unaware of Maki's reminder, and glanced at Chiyoko Shiina, her smile was still cheerful:
"okay!"

"Since you moved, I don't seem to have visited you! What a bother~"

"Ding-dong-"

"I am back."

Pushing open the door, Shiina Iori yelled habitually. While wiping the sweat with the towel around his neck, he took off his sneakers casually, and turned around to straighten himself at the entrance.

Passing by the living room, I was about to go to the bathroom a little further inside to take a shower, when I heard a familiar greeting from the living room.

"Oh hiss~"

"Isn't this Yi-chan! Did you come back this summer vacation?"

Shiina Iori's footsteps subconsciously stopped.

Turning his head, he saw Natsume Ryoko with dyed yellow hair kneeling and sitting at the square table in the center of the living room. Opposite them were their dear consul mother-in-law and Maki sitting next to her.

First, he subconsciously adjusted his facial expression, then Shiina Iori kept that business-like smiling face, and casually greeted:

"It's Aunt Liangzi! Are you here to ask Dad for help?"

"It's my sister—"

"Cough cough."

The adult mother on the opposite side smiled and coughed.

The guilty Natsume Ryoko flinched subconsciously, and had to barely ignore Shiina Iori's address, and said with a hearty smile: "That's right! Isn't this asking Qiu Hai to help arrange the venue and organize the order of activities!"

"The day of the Haenyeo Festival is coming soon, and the community is very busy!"

"And you also know that there are only a few people in our two blocks who have experience in organizing such large-scale events. Speaking of which, Yichan, you boy, haven't you been too handsome in the past two years?!"

Just halfway through the conversation, Natsume Ryoko seemed to have suddenly noticed some kind of cold eyes that were murderous in writing, but the intent was death. The topic of the conversation quickly made a 180-degree turn around Shiina Iori's face.

Shiina Iori, however, seemed to have gotten used to Natsume Ryoko's extremely detached way of speaking, and sighed helplessly: "If Aunt Ryoko wants Dad to go with you to hold this year's Ama Festival, I'm afraid it won't be possible."

"What?"

Natsume Ryoko couldn't help being taken aback.

"Because Dad isn't here."

Shiina Iori narrated solemnly: "Even if he is still alive and living in this room in a physical way, but when mom allows you to step into this room, he is already in 'non-existence' status."

When Chiyoko Shiina heard this, she gave Iori a approving look with a gentle smile on her face.

Maki turned to look at Iori with some surprise.

Nini, is this the ability to respond that you have acquired from your two years of experience as a scumbag?

"This is too unfeeling, Miss Chiyoko!"

Seemingly aware of Shiina Iori's hinting gaze, Natsume Ryoko immediately turned to Chiyoko and cried, "Anyway, we used to hang out on the same street before."

"Clang~!"

Before Natsume Ryoko finished speaking, the back of the kitchen knife hit her head with lightning speed, making a crisp and bright sound.

The mother, whose smile was still gentle, caressed the side of his face, showing a very puzzled look:

"What are you talking about, Ryoko?"

Natsume Ryoko shut up immediately.

But if there is another time, there is a high probability that it will not be the back of the knife that hit her on the head.

However, after being silent for a while, Natsume Ryoko still couldn't hold back, and said weakly:

"But... Miss Chiyoko."

"If someone like Qiu Hai didn't come out to seduce an old-school festival like the Ama Festival, no young girls would come to participate."

Obviously, all the experience in organizing events mentioned earlier were all excuses she made.

Chiyoko Shiina still smiled warmly: "Then don't do it."

"But those old men and women in the community are..."

"Is it okay to let them participate?"

"No, no, no, no! They are all so old, if something happens, it will be over!"

Natsume Ryoko refused again and again, but hesitated for a while, and couldn't stop glancing at Shiina Iori who was watching the play next to her.

Then he shook his head and looked back.

Don't know what to think.

Maki, who was sitting next to her, asked directly: "Then let Nini organize it?"

"Isn't it too much?"

Natsume Ryoko looked at the quiet and handsome man sitting in the corner of the living room, and sighed, "Don't think I don't know, usually I-chan is a child whom Maki sees so hard that you even pass other girls' love letters." hand."

"He is so old now, I'm afraid he hasn't even touched the hands of other little girls!"

"It's so hard to push ducks to the shelves, what if Yi-chan makes a fool of herself in front of other girls?"

"That hurts a boy's self-esteem!"

She was quite thoughtful, and muttered to herself: "That guy Qiuhai is different. When he was in high school, he flirted with Miss Chiyoko, and at the same time he was hanging out with several little girls. If it weren't for Miss Chiyoko has such a fierce head, what are you doing looking at me like that?"

Just talking, Natsume Ryoko suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the living room was a little subtle.

Looking up, I noticed Chiyoko Shiina and Maki Shiina's subtle and quiet strange eyes, which made people feel a little creepy.

There was a bit of coolness behind Natsume Ryoko, and she subconsciously turned her head, trying to ask Shiina Iori.

As a result, when she turned her head, Shiina Iori was sitting in a corner facing the wall.

"You are."

Natsume Ryoko was confused, when she heard the sound of the door closing suddenly from outside.

Is that guy Qiu Hai back?
However, when he turned his head, he saw a tall, beautiful girl with a cold expression passing by in the corridor. There were thin beads of sweat on her face, as if she had just returned from exercising.

When passing the living room, he probably saw a stranger sitting inside. The cold girl didn't make a sound, but nodded politely, and then continued towards the bathroom.

Natsume Ryoko, a well-informed woman, couldn't help but startled, her eyes were fascinated by that demeanor that could be seen from a distance but not played with like an iceberg snow lotus.

She turned her head and cast a questioning look at Chiyoko:

"Who is that?"

"It's Nini's girlfriend."

Shiina Maki still had that slightly subtle gaze, and answered with a slightly difficult tone.

Natsume Ryoko swallowed subconsciously.

Just 2 minutes after finishing speaking, there was another brisk sound of footsteps coming from the corridor. The person who came walked quickly tied his long hair into a ponytail and said in an embarrassing tone: "Aunt Chiyoko, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I woke up a little late, and I'll help you make breakfast together."

The voice subconsciously paused as it passed the living room.

Senior Little Fox's gaze met Ryoko Natsume who was sitting in the living room and turned his head again. He was a little surprised at first, and then showed that iconic smile with eyebrows and eyes as bright and moving as the crescent moon:

"Ah, so there are any guests? Excuse me!"

"Aunt Chiyoko, I'm going to help in the kitchen first!"

"Yes~"

Shiina Chiyoko agreed with a gentle smile.

Natsume Ryoko's eyes were almost stiff, and she couldn't even turn her neck for a while, and continued to ask with difficulty: "So, who is that?"

"I-chan's girlfriend~"

The distance between Shiina Iori and the corner of the wall seemed to be shortened a bit, as if she wanted to bury herself in the shadow.

The atmosphere in the living room fell further into a deeper silence, and it seemed difficult for all parties to continue talking for a while.

Natsume Ryoko pursed her lips and was about to say something when she suddenly heard light footsteps in the corridor.

A somewhat lazy, soft and sweet voice sounded from a distance:
"Maki? Maki?"

"Where is the toilet? I can't seem to find it."

No one has heard him before.

Then I saw his leopard.

Just emerging from the shadow of the corridor, a pair of seal students with exaggerated proportions caught Natsume Ryoko's attention in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, I noticed the cute girl who was yawning and rubbing the corners of her eyes.

The moment the four eyes met, the petite and huge girl didn't seem to have reacted yet, and when she squinted her eyes to confirm that it was someone she didn't know, she bowed politely:

"Hello."

Natsume Ryoko's gaze was almost dull, and she asked in a dazed tone:

"You, you won't be too"

Hearing this, Yui subconsciously lifted up the loose collar, then looked at Shiina's mother and Maki who were sitting on the other side, and noticed the kind eyes of the two, a little uneasy and cramped .

But in the end, I mustered up the courage to answer:
"That, that... I'm Iori-kun's girlfriend Igarashi."

"First meeting, please take care."

This time, Natsume Ryoko was completely speechless.

She turned her head and looked at Shiina Iori, who was almost sticking to the corner of the wall at this time, with a very complicated expression:
"I-chan, what a surprise"

"What can you do?"

　It’s not too much to ask for a ticket in 5k words~!
