My daily life with the Shiina sisters

Chapter 20 Imagawa Kaede's Selection of Sweet Potatoes

The "superego" Ice Kaguya was also a little helpless after hearing this. She had clearly wanted to invite him to have lunch together and even prepared his lunch box, but she didn't expect...

"No, he didn't come. He was called away by that Shiina Mahiru before I could invite him."

Hayasaka's face changed when he heard this, and he said with some worry: "Isn't that Shiina Mahiru the daughter of Master Imagawa..."

Kaguya smiled coldly: "Why worry about an unrecognized fiancée?"

After thinking about it, Hayasaka Ai felt that this might just be Imagawa Kaede's backup plan. Judging from his abnormal refusal in the past two days, he might just want Kaguya to give him a way out. Kaguya's behavior on Friday was indeed a bit too much.

"If Master Imagawa is playing hard to get, that's a bit unusual. Could it be that someone gave him this idea?"

"It is indeed possible." Thinking of this, Kaguya Shinomiya began to have some doubts. Was it just him who was like this, or was there someone who gave him the idea?

With her intelligence and logical reasoning ability, she has quickly locked her target on two people, Hongo Yuuto or Shiina Mahiru, both of them are possible.

As for the friends around her, as long as they are not too stupid, they should not interfere in the affairs between him and her. The one who can give him advice should be Hongo Yuto who is betting on Imagawa Kaede.

Thinking of this, she almost wanted to make something "accident" happen to this guy. This guy's ideas sometimes really made her feel passive. If it weren't for Imagawa Kaede's support, her relationship with him might have been broken long ago, and she would have gained an enemy out of thin air.

As for the woman called "Angel" by Shiina Mahiru, she had heard of it. After all, she herself was called "Princess" by those who were interested. If that person was her, it was indeed possible. Was it for the sake of getting promoted?

After he really gave up on her, she could take the opportunity to occupy his heart. No wonder this woman hadn't quarreled or made a fuss for half a year and even consciously created a relationship between the two of them. It turned out that she was waiting for her here. Well, what an angel is obviously a thief!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little depressed. It's not that she really looked down on Imagawa Kaede. Although Imagawa Kaede was not a man who could do great things, he had a good family background. As long as she agreed to marry Imagawa Kaede, it would be a good thing for both the Shinomiya family and herself.

Because as of now, the current lady of the Imagawa family is not a vase and can still be active in the business world. There are even rumors that many of the current affairs of the Imagawa family are presided over by Lady Imagawa.

She felt that this was not a lie. Every time she met her at a banquet, Mrs. Imagawa's scrutinizing gaze made her feel like she was a commodity on the shelf. The pressure she felt in front of her was even greater than when she met her father. Thinking about that feeling now, she even felt a little scared.

The Ashikaga family is not without descendants, but the chairman of the so-called blood relationship association who is taking advantage of the opportunity now is, to put it bluntly, a mascot. Although there are so many generations of Imagawa family heads working together, this matter was resolved in this generation.

This is a typical case of the inferior overthrowing the superior. Looking at the Shinomiya family and the Shijo family now, the Shinomiya family is beginning to worry that they are about to be overthrown by the inferior.

If she, a daughter born to a concubine, wants a good destination, Imagawa Kaede is undoubtedly the best choice. Given Imagawa Kaede's attitude, if she agrees, she will probably be the next Lady Imagawa, and she may even have more power than the current Lady Imagawa.

But she didn't understand why she refused. Logically, if she wanted to avenge the ridicule and cold eyes she had suffered since childhood, she should marry into the Imagawa family. However, she just wanted to snatch the inheritance rights from her brothers. She felt that this was the real revenge.

Hayasaka Ai, who was standing by, saw her gritting her teeth and looking lost at times, so she didn't dare to disturb her. She felt that her work would definitely become busier recently.

Ignoring the maid's self-pity, he turned his attention to Imagawa Kaede and his wife.

Imagawa Kaede held Mahiru's hand until they were away from the crowd and then said with a smile:

"So you were wearing it. Why didn't you wear it this morning?"

Shiina Mahiru was a little confused, but she quickly reacted and said with some displeasure but also happiness:

"Aren't we supposed to do morning exercises in the morning? I was afraid I might get hurt accidentally. So that's what got you angry this morning."

Imagawa Kaede was a little confused. When did he get angry in the morning?

But he still followed Shiina Mahiru's words and said a little embarrassedly: "It's obvious that you are trying to make me angry, otherwise why didn't you wear it during breakfast?"

"At that time, I had to cook, which was not convenient at all, and it was easy to break things..."

Imagawa Kaede looked at her as she explained, and thought it was so cute that it made him feel a lot better, so he pretended to be very distressed.

"To put it bluntly, I'm just jealous because I got jealous out of nowhere. So, what do you want from me?"

Mahiru found his look a little funny, and the gloom that had accumulated in her heart for the whole morning was swept away.

"Here, I don't know if you brought money. I forgot to prepare the food for today's lunch box last night, and it's a bit too late after morning exercise. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat today. I will prepare tomorrow's food in the evening."

As she spoke, she took out a banknote from her purse. Imagawa Kaede took a look and thought, wow, these young ladies are really generous. It was a Fukuzawa Yukichi note.

After silently complaining about the evil capitalists in his heart, he said in a cheeky way: "Can I just eat you?"

After he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. He was afraid that the dung beetle had fallen into the water, so he dared to tease him like this just a few days later.

As expected, after being stunned for a moment, Shiina Mahiru directly stuffed the money into his arms and said angrily:

"Okay, I've delivered the money. You can take care of lunch yourself. I'm leaving first." After saying that, he left without looking back.

Imagawa Kaede immediately caught up with her and held her hand to prevent her from leaving.

"Mahiru, Mahiru, I was wrong, don't go." However, she was still struggling, and Imagawa Kaede had limited physical strength and could only continue speaking.

"Mahiru-chan~ Angel-sama, please forgive me this time, ok~, Angel-sama is the best..." (Various disgusting tones and lines are omitted here.)

In the end, I don’t know if Shiina Mahiru is kind by nature, or if she was disgusted by Imagawa Kaede and gradually stopped struggling.

"Okay, I'm not leaving. Can you please stop calling me an angel?"

Seeing her blushing face and wandering eyes, Imagawa Kaede was so cute that he quickly said:

"Okay, Angel-sama... Mahiru-sama, but you're like an angel to me, so let's go eat together. You came right after class, so you probably haven't had lunch yet, right?"

Although I was forced to change my name because she was staring at me, I still wanted to be funny.

Although Mahiru felt a little helpless when she saw this, she didn't refuse seeing how excited he looked.

"You can go to the cafeteria together, but don't call me Mahiru-sama."

"Then what should I call you? Anata? No, that's what you should call me. How about Xiao Zhenzhen?..."

Seeing that he was getting more and more outrageous, Mahiru said helplessly: "Just call me by my name."

"Would you like to call me by my full name?" (Only people who have a good relationship with the island nation will call me by my first name. Normally, I would call you by your last name. I think everyone knows this, so I won't waste any more words.)

Shiina Mahiru's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but she remained calm and said, "Okay."

Imagawa Kaede said with a smirk, "Indeed, you should call me by my full name. You will feel more at ease if I call you by your full name, right?"

Shiina Mahiru couldn't help but look over when he heard that. When she saw him looking at her, she didn't dodge, but stared at him stubbornly.

"Imagawa Mahiru, this name is really nice, hahaha." Finally, he couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed. Mahiru's stubborn expression was so cute.

(It is common for Japanese women to change their surnames after getting married. In China, when people say "you take my surname", it mostly means "Wo Nendie". In Japanese, it can be used to express love, although it is old-fashioned, it is also relatively straightforward. People who live a simple life often speak in a roundabout way, such as "the moonlight is so beautiful" and "I want to drink the miso soup you make in the future".)

Shiina Mahiru was stunned when she heard this. She thought of the good side, thinking that he would admit his mistake and apologize. She thought of the bad side, thinking that their relationship would return to the way it was before. However, she didn't expect that he would not choose between the good and the bad, but just give you the flirty one.

"Baka." Shiina Mahiru rarely cursed directly, and not only that, she also stepped forward and stepped on him.

For a moment, the angel's mask was shattered to the ground, and she looked like an ordinary girl who had been fooled by her boyfriend.

Imagawa Kaede didn't dodge or evade, but just held her hand tightly. The two of them walked on the way to the cafeteria. Anyone could see that the girl was shy and timid, while the boy, well, he smiled so smugly that it made people grit their teeth!!!
