Yukino Yukinoshita nodded, seemingly believing his statement.
She squatted down and gently touched Mr. Pan, who was focused on cooking.
"Has Yukinoshita-san had breakfast yet?" Yuta Kijima asked. "If not, I'll make you one too."
"As for Mr. Pan, you don't need to worry. I have to go out later, so you can stay here and take care of it without worry."
Chapter 158 Yuta Kijima's Nemesis
Upon hearing Yuta Kijima's question, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but become wary.
She had long heard from Kitagawa Kaimu that his cooking was delicious, and she had always been very cautious about it.
After thinking for a moment, she shook her head: "There's no need to trouble Kijima-kun with that. I'll take it to my place after Mr. Pan finishes eating, and I'll eat it when I get back."
Upon hearing this, Yuta Kijima didn't mind and went to the kitchen to make himself a bowl of egg noodles.
When he carried the noodles to the kitchen door, Yukino Yukinoshita was already holding Mr. Pan, who had finished eating, and prepared to leave. Seeing him come out, she said calmly, "Then I'll take Mr. Pan and leave first. I'll bring it over again tonight."
“No problem.” Yuta Kijima nodded at her.
After Yukino Yukinoshita left, he finished his noodles, tidied up, and went out.
Eriri sent him a message before going to bed last night, reminding him not to forget to help with the painting over the weekend.
It seems the damage the senior student caused her during the last school festival was quite significant.
……
Stepping out of the apartment, the azure sky seemed to have been washed clean. The sun was already starting to get quite harsh this month. Yuta Kijima admired the scenery on both sides of the road as he hurried toward Eriri's house.
When they arrived at Eriri's house, it was already 9:30. No matter how many times they had seen it, the magnificent manor in front of them was still very impressive.
"I really can't understand it. Are all the hobbies of the rich so refined and unconventional?"
Yuta Kijima muttered softly.
Eriri appears to be a typical rich girl to outsiders, but she herself is a famous doujinshi artist, not to mention Eriri's mother.
Just thinking about that eccentric woman, Yuta Kijima, gave him a headache.
I hope she's not home today...
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, he pressed the doorbell by the front door.
Soon the intercom at the doorbell started ringing.
"Ah~ So it's Eriri's friend. That girl is really something, she didn't even tell me that a friend was coming to the house today."
Yuta Kijima looked sullen; it seemed he couldn't escape being teased today.
"Kijima-kun, just come in. I've already opened the door."
A mocking chuckle came through the walkie-talkie, accompanied by the slow opening of the door in front of him.
Taking a deep breath, Yuta Kijima entered with heavy steps.
Arriving at the gate of the mansion, Yuta Kijima was about to knock when the door suddenly clicked open from the inside, revealing the person he least wanted to enter... Eriri's mother—Sayuri Sawamura.
Good morning, Kijima-kun.
Today, Sayuri Sawamura was dressed in casual home clothes, but her pretty face made her look like a young girl. The only difference was that she had a subtle mature air about her.
She was now watching Yuta Kijima in front of the door with a smile on her face.
"Good morning, Auntie... Has Eriri gotten up yet?"
Yuta Kijima looked wary and embarrassed. Every time he saw Sayuri Sawamura, he felt a sense of unease, as if he were being watched by a predator.
As soon as Yuta Kijima finished speaking, Sayuri Sawamura looked like she was about to cry. She covered her eyes and said sadly, "When Kijima-kun came last time, he called me 'older sister'. Why is he calling me 'auntie' this time... I feel like I've been offended by Kijima-kun again..."
"They're still so young."
A bead of cold sweat rolled down Yuta Kijima's forehead. "Do you think it's appropriate for me to call my friend's mother 'older sister'?"
But now he's being blocked at the door by Sayuri Sawamura, and he's really embarrassed. Should he really go against his conscience and call her "older sister"?
Sister Little Lily?
What should Eriri call him from now on...?
However, Sayuri Sawamura couldn't hear the roar and helplessness in Kijima Yuta's heart at all, nor did she care about his uneasy posture. She still acted as if she was being bullied and said, "Does Kijima-kun not even want to call you 'older sister' anymore? When we first met, you were just an innocent boy who didn't know the ways of the world."
"..."
Yuta Kijima couldn't help but twitch his lips; he really wanted to just turn around and leave.
"Mom! What are you doing?!"
Just then, a voice filled with shame and indignation burst in.
Yuta Kijima's gaze passed over Sayuri Sawamura and looked back to see Eriri rushing over. Her face was flushed from exhaustion.
Upon seeing Eriri finally appear, Yuta Kijima secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to send a message to Eriri as soon as he entered the room.
What he didn't understand was why Eriri had taken so long to come down...
At that moment, Eriri, whose breathing was slightly rapid, saw that her invited guest, Yuta Kijima, was being blocked at the door by her mother, and she immediately knew that something bad was going to happen.
Her heart was filled with bitterness. She thought about not staying up late every day, but as soon as night fell, she would be full of energy...
As expected, I didn't go to sleep until very late.
When she was woken up by Yuta Kijima's message notification this morning, she was still in a daze. It wasn't until she remembered that her mother was also at home that she hurriedly got up and prepared to go downstairs to greet her.
But as she left the room, she inadvertently noticed clothes scattered everywhere...
For the sake of a better world, she had no choice but to spend some time tidying up the room before hurriedly leaving.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw this scene.
Upon hearing Eriri's voice, Sawamura Sayuri turned around in surprise: "Eriri? You're up? I was just about to go upstairs to call you..."
"Look... your good friend Kijima is here! Aren't you surprised?"
Kijima Yuta: "..."
How can you say such dramatic things so seriously? Doesn't Eriri know I'm coming today?
Even if I wanted to come here myself, no homeowner would block a guest at the door.
As expected, Eriri got a little angry after hearing this nonsense. She gritted her little fangs to control her emotions and said softly, "Mom, can you please stop saying things that don't make any sense?"
"Huh?" Unfortunately, Sayuri Sawamura still didn't realize something was wrong. She tilted her head, pressed her hand to her cheek, and giggled, "Isn't Eriri happy that Kijima-kun came to see you?"
"I'm actually very happy to see Eriri making new friends."
Noticing the subtle tone in her mother's voice, Eriri glared at her, a faint blush rising on her pretty face.
She looked at Yuta Kijima and said, "Yuta, ignore this old lady and come upstairs with me."
Chapter 159 Something's Wrong
"Eri is so unlovable now. She used to be closest to her mother, but now that Kijima-kun is here, she's abandoned her mother..."
Sawamura Sayuri looked hurt by Eriri's words.
Yuta Kijima was speechless.
He finally understood completely that Eriri's ability to become a manga artist was largely due to her mother, especially her way of speaking. No wonder Eriri's series were all about humiliation.
However, on the other hand, such family relationships are actually very harmonious. After all, the family members share the same interests and hobbies, and when they tell a joke with a hidden meaning, the whole family understands it instantly.
"Ahem." Yuta Kijima coughed lightly, interrupting Sayuri Sawamura's unfinished rambling, and said, "Auntie, I'll go upstairs with Eriri first."
After saying that, before Sawamura Sayuri could react, she walked past her and headed towards Eriri.
As he passed Eriri, Yuta Kijima gave her a helpless look and went straight upstairs to Eriri's room.
"Ah?"
Sawamura Sayuri was taken aback to see Kijima Yuta walk past her, and immediately felt even more "sad".
Yinglili: "..."
Having a mother like that is really embarrassing in front of my friends.
"If Mom has nothing to do, go play some BL visual novels!" Eriri revealed her little tiger teeth. "And don't come up and bother us later, I still have a lot of work to finish today."
"I had a hard time getting Yuta to come and help!"
"Huh? What if Eriri gets bullied by Kijima?"
"That kind of thing would never happen!"
Eriri glared at Sayuri, crossed her arms, and complained.
After saying that, she took small steps and went upstairs.
As Sawamura Sayuri watched Eriri's slightly cheerful pace, her acting expression gradually faded, and she looked thoughtfully towards the second floor.
……
the other side.
Yuta Kijima quickly arrived at Eriri's familiar bedroom. Just to be safe, he first stood at the door and glanced to see if her room was "safe".
He only entered the room after confirming that everything inside was in order and that no clothes had fallen out.
After scanning the room, Yuta Kijima focused his attention on Eriri's desk.
Countless sketches have filled the desk, and there are even drafts drawn by Eriri on the floor.
He moved closer to get a better look.
She casually picked up a sketch from the desk; the basic characters and storyboards were almost finished. From a glimpse, one could see the whole picture. Eriri truly lived up to her name, Kashiwagi Eri.
It's pretty good, I can only say.
"This is?"
Soon, Yuta Kijima saw Eriri's pent-up resentment in the drawing.
As expected, Eriri truly lived up to her word in this regard.
The senior student's sketch of the notebook is already finished.
