Tokyo: The life of a literary giant begins with home self-defense!

Chapter 13 The Master Who Writes (Part )
Mrs. Takeda was standing next to the kotatsu table.

The living room of this single-family house is quite spacious, about 20 square meters in size. There is a TV hanging on one wall and a DVD player underneath.

Directly opposite the TV is a family sofa and the usual kotatsu table.

The dining table is located in a place where a paper door is opened and there is a stove that can be heated by burning firewood.

The design is very clever. In winter, this paper barrier door connecting the small dining room and the living room will basically never be closed.

Mrs. Takeda was startled by the sudden appearance of Ryukawa Toru.

Long Chuan Che looked at the cashmere sweater that was propped up high and jumped twice like a rabbit.
"Eat, oh, okay."

Mrs. Takeda's voice had a moist sound as if she had just gotten out of the bath, and her slender, white swan neck stood elegantly in the air. She stepped back a few steps in panic and met her daughter's strange gaze.

Her behavior was so strange that it made people feel a little scared of Longchuan Tetsu, which seemed incredible to others.

The expression on her face was hard to see through the mask, so Mrs. Takeda gritted her teeth and pulled Ryukawa Toru aside.

"Longchuan Tetsu, are you very proud?"

"Proud? I don't quite understand what you mean, ma'am."

The word "wife" was pronounced wearily and lingeringly, like the black cat at the entrance of the village that only knows how to bask in the sun under the eaves.

The wagging tail makes people feel itchy.

Takeda Takako took a deep breath.

"What do you want? Didn't you say we can stay here until spring?"

"I didn't do anything." Ryukawa Toru blinked his clear eyes and looked at Takeda Takako. His innocent look was that of an ignorant teenager.

"you"

Mrs. Takeda was annoyed, and a hint of anger appeared on her pretty face.

"You teased me!"

Mrs. Takeda gritted her teeth.

She would not be fooled by Longchuan Che's appearance.

I deliberately made fun of her, saying that there was snow that needed to be cleared and that she was a very hungry lady.

When she heard those words, she ran away.

That is not just verbal teasing. This kind of interpersonal interaction puts people in a weak position of escape and can be easily controlled by the other party.

Rather than teasing her, it would be more accurate to say that
Training?

The air was quiet for a few seconds. Longchuan Che chuckled twice and said nothing.

Mrs. Takeda has been depressed for so many years, just like Mount Fuji in the distance. She can't stand the slightest teasing from the vague words.

"What do you want?" Mrs. Takeda bit her lower lip. If she continued like this, she was afraid that she would not be able to bear it before her daughter took the exam.

When Mrs. Takeda looked troubled, Ryukawa Toru came over and whispered a few words.

"that's it?"

Takako Takeda had a strange expression on her face.

"It's very simple, right?" Longchuan Che winked.

"Okay, but you can't lie to me." Mrs. Takeda raised her head, and the proud expression of a mistress appeared on her face again.

Ryukawa Toru watched his wife take the plate and walk away. He smacked his lips twice, then returned to the table and sat down opposite Takeda Akane.

"what are you writing?"

Seeing Ryukawa Toru taking out manuscript paper, ink and pen, Takeda Akane asked curiously.

The two had just finished their meal. Takeda Akane went to the warm stove to warm herself up and review her lessons.

This girl has a bad temper, but she is very serious about her studies.

"I'm preparing to debut as a writer." Longchuan Che put out paper and pen, thinking about which one to write first.

Traditional literary works or popular novels.

The former has a higher social status, while the latter makes more money.

Ryukawa Toru had a thick stack of manuscript paper, and it looked like he was brewing a masterpiece here, which made Takeda Akane sneer.

"Why, you don't want to raise pigs anymore, you want to play with pens?"

Ryukawa Toru attends Eiwa High School, which focuses on agriculture, and Takeda Akane often uses this to criticize him.

"Earn some pocket money?"

Ryukawa Tetsu said with a smile, then blinked twice and looked at Takeda Akane. "Did you forget something?"

Takeda Akane was stunned by Ryukawa Toru's words, and then she had a somewhat subtle expression.

"Longchuan Tetsu, you really are a pervert."

Takeda Akane lost the bet just now, and Ryukawa Toru did not ask for any reward, but only a title.

"It's okay if you don't want to, but I won't bet with you again." Longchuan Che patiently smoothed the papers on the table.

Takeda Akane is a very competitive person with a proud personality and a bad attitude.

Having lost this time, she will definitely want to get back at him next time.

Sure enough, after saying this, Longchuan Che found that the other party's expression of wanting to cheat was gone.

"Okay~" Takeda Akane said in a sarcastic tone.

"Master~Puff~"

As soon as Takeda Akane finished speaking, she burst out laughing.

She didn't mind the meaningless name, and even felt that Longchuan Che was deceiving himself.

Takeda Akane, who had learned a little Chinese, knew that the word "master" was a title similar to "head of the family" or "sir" in ancient times, but a title alone was not offensive at all.

It's not like I'm calling you dad.

"Be good, second maid."

Longchuan Che narrowed his eyes and smiled.

The so-called training is a combination of language games and psychological suggestion. This kind of obvious class-specific titles will plant seeds in people's hearts in the long run.

When Takeda Akane saw that Ryukawa Toru really dared to respond, her face was still a little gloomy, but her expression soon became strange again.

"Why is she the second maid?" There was obviously another number above the word "two". Takeda Akane knew the master, but did not know the meaning of a maid. Being competitive, she obviously did not like the title of "second".

"I want to be the head maid!"

Ryukawa Toru's expression became strange. He glanced in front of Takeda Akane, and then looked at Mrs. Takeda who was nimbly spitting out fish bones from her mouth.

Her plump figure seemed to be pressing down on the table so hard that it could hardly breathe.

"Sorry, the first maid has already been chosen, you should continue to work hard."

Longchuan Che shook his head with great regret. In ancient times, maids had to warm the bed for their masters.

Although Takeda Akane is not small, she is clearly not qualified.

Keep up the good work, keep up the good work.

After talking to the nasty kid for a few words, Longchuan Che pulled out the golden pen tip.

The un-inked nib is very clean and gorgeous.

The dazzling golden light dazzled Takeda Akane's eyes.

She recognizes this pen.

Pilot's gold straight-nib fountain pen, valued at 8000 yen.

It has a nice name called Custom - distinguished guest.

"You have a lot of hidden money, right?"

Takeda Akane's eyes rolled around.

Some people only care about eating and not fighting. They just lost and now they are thinking about other people's private money.

"It's all gone, only a few thousand yen left." Ryukawa Toru said honestly.

"Tsk." Takeda Akane smiled in obvious disbelief.

Longchuan Che saw her eyes rolling around and knew that she was thinking about how to get money from him.

Most of the living expenses he earned from his part-time job were taken away by Takeda Akane in the name of family expenses.

It is said that it was handed over to Takeda Takako, but Ryukawa Toru never asked, nor did he want to ask.

After all, he had no relatives or friends, and he had always believed from the bottom of his heart that the mother and daughter were willing to take him in, and that was enough for him to be grateful.

Ryukawa Toru touched the golden pattern on the tip of the pen, thought for a while, then looked at Takeda Akane who was staring at his pen.

"Want to gamble again?"
