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

Chapter 326: Open Air

A casserole for three people, with bouillabaisse and white bread.

"I'm surprised you can do this?"

The young lady dipped some of the soup with white bread, which tasted salty and fresh, and the soup was thick.

Although it's not as good as the one made by an authentic chef, it tastes pretty good.

“Just followed the recipe.”

Longchuan Che has seen a lot of different things, so it is not surprising that he can cook some French food.

They brought the dishes to the dining table, and the cicadas outside the house chirped.

"Do you like Miss Takeda?"

There were gentle starlight like waves on the roof. Natsuko Imamura held up her face and looked at Ryuukawa Toru in front of her with some curiosity.

Although Takeda Maki is beautiful, she is definitely not Ryukawa Toru's ideal type, and it is quite strange for the two of them to be together.

"We are all adults, what do you say about likes and dislikes?"

When the eldest lady asked the question, Longchuan Che showed a disdainful expression on his face.

"She was able to help me get nominated for a literary award. I stayed at the best Cheval Blanc Hotel in Paris. Boys should not be so pedantic sometimes. They should loosen their belts a lot."

It was difficult to hear the truth from Ryukawa Toru most of the time. Imamura Natsuko sighed and served her a bowl of stew with a silver spoon.

Cassoulet with white beans, sausage and pork.

The stew is soft, tender and sweet, and can be eaten with white bread.

"It's better to wait for the master."

Takeda Shinki hasn't come down yet, Ryukawa Toru reminded the girl.

The place belongs to Takeda Maki, and the things belong to the general manager.

"What does it matter? She doesn't want to eat with me anyway."

Natsuko Imamura raised her eyebrows. The person who invited her was Ryukawa Toru, not Takeda Maki.

The woman instinctively disliked her, and Natsuko Imamura didn't really want to see the weird things in her mind.

"alright."

Longchuan Che shrugged. The two women seemed to be having some problems.

"I'll take you there after you finish eating."

The eldest lady ate slowly, and Longchuan Che was not in a hurry either.

He walked around the first floor of the house and two packages on the table caught his attention.

The package is quite exquisite, with the BA&SH logo on it.

"Boys, sometimes you don't have to be so pedantic. You can get many things by just loosening your belt."

The eldest lady had appeared beside them with a tray of food in her hand. She was eating some fruit and looking at Long Chuan Che, who was staring blankly at the package, with a mocking look on her face.

ba&sh is a famous French clothing brand. It features black stockings with prints and a maid outfit in black and white.

It's obviously more than one size bigger.

"I regret it. I'm obviously not suitable for the profession of gigolo."

Takeda Maki must be out of her mind to dare to buy such a thing for herself.

Ryuukawa Toru showed an expression that said he was lucky he had discovered it early, and secretly stuffed the maid outfit, which was one size larger, into the closet.

"abnormal."

"It's really perverted."

"I say you."

There were two identical maid outfits in the package. Ryukawa Toru only put away the larger one, and left the other one that obviously fit Takeda Maki's body in place.

This is a very traditional French maid outfit.

Ruffled, lace skirt.

The printed stockings inside are free gifts from the store.

"What does a little brat know?"

Ryukawa Toru waved his hand and made an expression to hurry up and leave. Takeda Maki was still taking a shower, so he could just send the young lady back first.

Because her breasts haven't developed yet, she's still a child.

Seeing Ryukawa Toru's standards for judging girls, Imamura Natsuko sneered.

The sky was slightly pale due to the silver stars, and the eternal Milky Way seemed to be slowly falling from above.

Walking back to the fork in the road from the top of one mountain, the young lady's car was still parked there quietly.

"Where did you get this?"

The brand of the lady's bicycle is Japan's Fuji Bicycle. There are stone houses and villages near Gold. Ryukawa Tetsu didn't know where the girl found such a light green ladies' bicycle.

There was a woven basket in front of the bicycle, and a wreath that Takeda Shinki had thrown into it.

"Who knows."

The eldest lady has her hands behind her back.

"Maybe it's because I have bodyguards and servants following me from time to time."

The eldest lady spoke seriously, and Longchuan Che was stunned.

"Kidding."

The girl waved the bright wreath in her hand towards Longchuan Che.

"That's not funny."

In the dark mountains, there are always people following you.

Longchuan Che found it scary just thinking about it, but the girl was smiling so brightly that he couldn't tell whether it was real or fake.

"Ryukawa, have you ever seen Mariko Yamauchi's 'Tokyo Noble Girls'?"

The wheels of the bicycle made a clattering sound, and Longchuan Che followed the eldest lady towards the mountainside near the Luberon River.

The winding river shone silvery under the sky, and Long Chuan Che touched his chin.

"A novel about class issues?"

Mariko Yamauchi is a female creator from Osaka. To be honest, Ryukawa Toru has never seen her, but his girlfriend has mentioned her twice in front of him.

The content of the novel is rather popular, and Ryukawa Che usually doesn't read it.

"People at the top of the pyramid have accumulated huge wealth over several generations, but Huazi's life was not good since he was a child."

Chatting about novels on the top of the mountain, the eldest lady had a peaceful smile.

"The etiquette in a large family is complicated and strict. You have to kneel when you see your elders, speak carefully, and the seats for meals are reserved according to the reservation."

"That's really troublesome."

Longchuan Che walked forward with the other person, and his shadow was stretched very long by the accompanying starlight.

"But while abiding by the strict rules, you can also enjoy favorable conditions that ordinary people cannot enjoy."

Dazai Osamu once described the cold and indifferent environment of traditional large families in his book No Longer Human.
-
In my country home, when the whole family has a meal, about ten people sit in two rows facing each other.
-
As the youngest child, of course I sat in the seat closest to the edge.
-
The dining room was a little dim. During lunch, more than a dozen people in the family were chewing rice in silence. That scene always gave me the chills.

The same old food, the gloomy dining environment.

Longchuan Che used to think that it was just the whining of rich kids.

But looking at the eldest lady's smile which always looks gentle, it seems that is not the case.

The smile is calm and gentle, and it is the same smile every time.

It seems to be the same as Kujo Nishiko’s smile in the photo?
This terrifying thought suddenly occurred to Longchuan Che.

After sending the eldest lady home under the starlight, it was already eight o'clock when Longchuan Che returned to his residence.

There was the sound of splashing water coming from the swimming pool in the courtyard, and the silver moon on the dome looked like washing silk.

When Longchuan Che arrived at the backyard, the executive was standing barefoot in the pool.

The pool sparkled, and the reflection on the woman's skin seemed to turn her into silver.

Outdoor, swimming pool, woman in swimsuit.

"It's not yet 12 o'clock for adults, right?"

Longchuan Che came back to his senses from the eldest lady's vague reminder.
