Her mother, Mrs. Kawasaki, also had to go to work, her older sister was in high school, and her older brother was in junior high school, so they couldn't play with her at all.
Even in kindergarten, I didn't have many childhood friends.
Kawasaki Kyoka had a very good impression of Takayanagi Ichiro when they last met.
Now that Ichiro Takayanagi has been interacting with her in this way, Kyoka Kawasaki is even happier.
"Big brother, I wish you were my dad."
Previously, Kawasaki Kyoka had considered matchmaking Takayanagi Ichiro and Kawasaki Saki, so that Takayanagi Ichiro would become her brother-in-law.
However, now that she has this interactive experience, Kawasaki Kyoka thinks that Takayanagi Ichiro becoming her father is also a very good choice.
Moreover, Ichiro Takayanagi arranged a very good job for his mother, Mrs. Kawasaki, and now they are interacting intimately. Isn't this what a father should do?
"This is not something I can decide."
Takayanagi Ichiro did not directly reject the little cutie's suggestion, because it could very likely affect Kawasaki Kyoka's physical and mental health.
"Big brother, I'll whisper sweet nothings in my mother's ear for you, all you have to do is be enthusiastic and proactive."
Kyoka Kawasaki even wanted to be Takayanagi Ichiro's wingman and offered him advice.
"Jinghua, you can't say this in front of your mother, or you'll get a beating."
"Yes, it's a secret between me and my older brother."
...........
"Boss lady, your husband is really too young."
The convenience store had just finished renovations, so only Mrs. Kawasaki was busy there.
As for Saki Kawasaki, she went to school.
After they've been on the road for a while, Mrs. Kawasaki plans to increase staff at the convenience store. She'll just tell Ichiro Takayanagi the budget when that happens.
The convenience store owner has changed to Mrs. Kawasaki, a mature woman, and many more women are coming to buy things here.
That fat guy used to have a really lewd look in his eyes and he wasn't good-looking at all. He completely ruined their shopping experience.
In just a few days, the female customers who came to buy things had already become familiar with Mrs. Kawasaki.
I know that Mrs. Kawasaki has three children, the youngest of whom is often by her side.
However, they didn't play inside the convenience store; instead, they played outside.
Mrs. Kawasaki has never mentioned her husband, but now that the guests here see Takayanagi Ichiro and Kawasaki Kyōka playing together, they subconsciously assume that Takayanagi Ichiro is Mrs. Kawasaki's husband.
It has to be said that if that's really the case, then Takayanagi Ichiro is way too young; he looks like a student who just graduated from university not long ago.
After hearing what these customers said, Mrs. Kawasaki's gaze also fell on Takayanagi Ichiro and Kawasaki Kyoka through the convenience store glass.
She could have simply rejected these guests' speculations, because after her husband's death, she was responsible for raising three children, and there was absolutely no chance for any rekindling of their romance.
The two older children are already aware of the pressure, and the eldest daughter even frequently works part-time outside.
Sometimes when they come home very late, they will call the police to look for them.
The second son also understands pressure, so he studies very hard and seriously, and his grades in class are quite good.
Kyoka Kawasaki, the youngest daughter, is at a carefree age. In the past, Mrs. Kawasaki had to go to work to support the whole family, so she spent too little time with her.
Even when you see Kawasaki Kyoka smile, it's only on holidays or when she's on a long break.
Now, Kawasaki Kyoka is smiling happily in Takayanagi Ichiro's arms, as if Takayanagi Ichiro really is her father.
Although it was fake, Mrs. Kawasaki did not actively deny it.
"That's 13,000 yen in total. Thank you for your patronage."
Mrs. Kawasaki did not answer the female customer's question, but instead made a count.
"Ok."
This was, after all, someone else's family matter, and even without an answer, the female customer did not press for an answer.
After paying, she carried her purchases out of the convenience store, but before leaving completely, her gaze fell on Takayanagi Ichiro again.
He really is a handsome young man. If she could have something happen with this handsome man, she would be willing to live a year or two less.
"Big brother, why did I feel like that auntie's gaze was like she wanted to devour you?"
Children are quite perceptive, and they immediately noticed the meaning in the old lady's gaze.
However, Kawasaki Kyoka also had a lot of questions in his mind. Takayanagi Ichiro was a person, so how could he be swallowed directly?
Chapter 675 Big Brother, You Can't Blame My Mom and Sister
"I guess that old lady was hungry, and the person she wanted to devour was probably Jinghua."
Of course, Ichiro Takayanagi did not explain the detailed reasons to Kyoka Kawasaki; he simply changed his words.
Kawasaki Kyoka was startled and trembled slightly in Takayanagi Ichiro's arms.
She was just a kindergarten student, not tasty at all, so how could she have caught the eye of that genius?
"Big brother, I don't like it at all. Let's ask Mom not to let that aunt come here to buy things."
Kawasaki Kyoka felt a little scared. At this moment, she wanted to use her mother's position as the store manager to stop that old lady from buying things here, but she still wanted to get Takayanagi Ichiro's permission first.
Although the three of them work at the shop, and the shop is called Kawasaki Convenience Store, Mrs. Kawasaki is not arrogant at all.
She's just here as the store manager, helping Takayanagi Ichiro manage this convenience store; she's not the real owner.
So Mrs. Kawasaki and Saki Kawasaki had a good talk, and Mrs. Kawasaki educated her daughter, telling her not to have any improper thoughts.
Kawasaki Saki and Mrs. Kawasaki's education has been effective. Even if Kawasaki Kyoka doesn't want others to enter the convenience store, she still needs to ask Takayanagi Ichiro's opinion.
Kawasaki Kyoka's words made Takayanagi Ichiro chuckle. He hadn't expected Kawasaki Kyoka to have such an adorable reaction.
"Jinghua, if this auntie goes back and has a good meal, she won't have any improper thoughts about you."
So you don't need to worry too much, your mother will definitely handle these things.
Kawasaki Kyoka used to believe her older sister and mother, but now she believes Takayanagi Ichiro.
Although the two did not have much contact, Kawasaki Kyoka had complete trust in Takayanagi Ichiro.
"Big brother, my mom is out."
Mrs. Kawasaki had finished all her work inside the convenience store and there were no customers for her to serve, so she came out of the store.
Although Kawasaki Kyoka had completed the information delivery, she showed no intention of leaving Takayanagi Ichiro's embrace.
"Jinghua, get down from Mr. Gaoliu's arms right now."
Mrs. Kawasaki came to Takayanagi Ichiro's side, but instead of greeting him, she told her daughter to leave Takayanagi Ichiro's embrace first.
"Mr. Gao Liu, I'm really sorry, Jinghua has been spoiled too much in our family."
Mrs. Kawasaki then expressed her satisfaction to Ichiro Takayanagi, as she knew that there was a significant gap between her family and Ichiro Takayanagi.
Although Ichiro Takayanagi appears kind and approachable, he can even chat with cute girls like Kyoka Kawasaki.
However, Mrs. Kawasaki had no intention of marrying into a wealthier family, so she wanted to send her daughter, Kyoka Kawasaki, away so she could focus on her work.
As for her daughter's suggestion that he control Takayanagi Ichiro, or that her sister Kawasaki Saki date Takayanagi Ichiro, Mrs. Kawasaki completely rejected it.
"Mom, I don't want to get down."
Kawasaki Kyoka directly rejected her mother's suggestion and then explained her reasons.
When I was in kindergarten, many of the other children were picked up by their fathers, and they could sit in their fathers' laps like I do now. I was the only one who didn't.
"I feel very comfortable in my older brother's arms, just like my dad is holding me, and I don't want to get down."
After hearing Kawasaki Kyoka's words, Mrs. Kawasaki's face showed a look of heartache, because Kawasaki Kyoka received very limited fatherly love.
"Mrs. Kawasaki, Jinghua is a very lovely child."
Besides, our conversation was very pleasant, so there's no need for you to directly scare her.
At this moment, Takayanagi Ichiro also spoke up for Kawasaki Kyoka, making Kyoka even happier. She almost made a face at her mother while in Takayanagi Ichiro's arms.
After hearing what Takayanagi Ichiro said, Mrs. Kawasaki did not urge him any further.
Currently, neither Kyoka Kawasaki nor Ichiro Takayanagi have any objections. If she, as the mother, continues to urge them, Kyoka Kawasaki might very well become a bad mother in her own eyes.
"Then I'll be in a lot of trouble for Mr. Takayanagi."
Mrs. Kawasaki then told Ichiro Takayanagi about some changes made to the convenience store, to prove that her family hadn't been causing trouble there.
After listening to Mrs. Kawasaki's story, Ichiro Takayanagi nodded, agreeing that Mrs. Kawasaki and Saki Kawasaki had done a very good job.
"What did this convenience store look like when I came here to take over?"
I have a clear idea of what the convenience store I just saw looks like.
"If you, Mrs. Kawasaki, keep running this business well, maybe one day this shop will become yours."
Mrs. Kawasaki did not respond to Ichiro Takayanagi's statement, but simply invited him to come and take a look inside the shop.
She believed that Ichiro Takayanagi was the true owner of the shop and might be able to point out some shortcomings so that she could make improvements.
"Big brother, my mom and sister work very hard for this shop."
If they do something wrong, please don't blame them.
Children are more perceptive, just like they were just now. Kawasaki Kyoka even started pleading for her mother and sister.
“I would never have thought of that before, so let’s go into the shop and take a look.”
Takayanagi Ichiro, carrying Kawasaki Kyoka, entered the convenience store with Mrs. Kawasaki to see the changes that had taken place over the past few days.
..............
Across the street from the convenience store, there are two people, one tall and one short.
The two women's hair color proved that they were siblings, namely Saki Kawasaki and her younger brother Taishi Kawasaki.
Kawasaki Saki didn't have class today because it was her day off.
However, instead of helping out at the convenience store, she went to find a tutoring class for her younger brother and, after experiencing the tutoring course, brought him back to the convenience store.
