Crossover Anime Daily Life: My Girlfriend is an Older Auntie, Erya

"Aunt Kyoka probably doesn't have any friends either!"

"..."xN

Girl, although it's true, you might get a scolding for saying it out loud!

Seeing Kyoka's face turn pale, everyone tacitly stepped back...

"Aaaaaah!! I was wrong!!! Please come save me!"

Even after hearing the cute cries for help, they still chose to ignore them.

Well, that happens quite often.

(Next, a new daughter should appear. Can you guess who it is? She'll be similar in appearance.) Ding.

"Honestly, kids these days are getting more and more rude. They even dare to talk to adults like that."

"Hahaha~ Sagiri's screams were really loud just now, was it really necessary to be so ruthless?"

Looking at the cold queen in front of him who was now looking arrogant and smug after scolding her little niece, Bai Ye chuckled and then casually teased her.

"She was just being stubborn later on. This girl seems very introverted now, but she's actually getting more and more mischievous. I don't know who she learned it from."

The beautiful woman with short black hair glanced at him with annoyance, then downed the red wine in her wine glass in one gulp. Bai Ye smiled and took a small sip.

This is the lounge on the fourth floor of their house.

Since his house is quite large, the extra space naturally can't be left completely empty, so there are some leisure areas.

There's a music room, a chess and card room, a game room, and even a dedicated shogi room where the whole family can play shogi together, and it's quite spacious.

And this place is a bar.

For adults, having a drink or two after work is a form of enjoyment.

Moreover, someone inexplicably gained the skill of a "bartender" through "220," enabling them to mix various flavors of liquor, which is why they also enjoy coming here.

However, not only is Nanami, who doesn't like drinking, absent now, but Nia is also missing.

There were only him and Kyoka there.

Kyoka came up here right after she finished focusing Sagiri.

Nia and the others probably know how Kyoka feels, so they're trying to stay as far away from her as possible now.

After all, the principle of "family scandals should not be aired in public" has already been broken, and they did not stop it. If Kyoka, who is not in a good mood, seizes on this, she will definitely be lectured for half a day.

This "disciplinary committee member" is someone your family member shouldn't offend!

"Haha~ After all, kids always grow up eventually. Sagiri is going through a rebellious phase, so it's normal for her to have this kind of personality~"

“That child has been going through a rebellious phase for several years. If this continues, he may be like this for the rest of his life.”

"It's not that exaggerated~"

"Have you noticed any changes in your family members?"

"..."

Hmm, that statement does make some sense.

The women around him are mostly women with strong personalities, whose personalities generally haven't changed much from childhood to adulthood.

"Well, thankfully nothing's changed~ Whether it's the others or you, Kyoka-chan~"

Of course, Bai Ye thought this was a good thing.

Even if their personalities change, he will still love them. But these women's personalities are actually no different from those in the original work or from those he has been with all along.

He felt that things were best as they were.

"...What? You're making it sound so nice, like I'm marrying you."

Kyoka paused for a moment, then rolled her eyes at him.

However, the last sentence was somewhat inappropriate, wasn't it?

Even though they've known each other for so many years, their positions don't seem to warrant such casual remarks...

"Haha~ If you're willing, we can get married right now~"

But Bai Ye didn't care about such a "trivial matter," and even said something more subtle. He then smiled and sat closer to Kyoka, reaching out to put his arm around her waist...

Although Kyoka gave him a disapproving look, she didn't resist. Instead, she pressed her body closer to him, her face slightly flushed, whether from shyness or the effects of alcohol, it was hard to tell.

"I never said I wanted to marry you, don't flatter yourself."

"Sigh, it's just the two of us now, why are you still being so stubborn?"

Bai Ye shrugged, both amused and exasperated, expressing his helplessness.

About ten years ago, almost all the women he knew had already married him.

...Apart from Kyoka.

The main reason is that when she married Akane, Kyoka was too young and had not reached the legal age, so it was not possible.

In the years that followed, after Kyoka and the others came of age, other girls of similar age also took the initiative to propose to him, but Kyoka was the only one who did not.

He had proposed to her, but she still refused.

As for the reasons...

"Is it still because of Akane? The older she gets, the more rigid she becomes in these kinds of things~"

"What do you mean by rigid? Does it sound better if two sisters fight over one man?"

Of course, it's all because of Akane.

Although Byakuya didn't think there was any problem at all, Kyoka herself was still somewhat bothered by the matter.

She felt that he and Qian had been married for many years, and he shouldn't interfere with their relationship anymore.

...even though he had many wives.

So it's probably better not to get married.

"What's the big deal? It's not like we don't have sisters, we have quite a few." But Bai Ye was somewhat dismissive of this.

Many of the women he married were his sisters.

A certain pair of Hoshimiya sisters, a certain pair of Yamai sisters, a certain pair of Nakiri sisters, and so on...

Only Kyoka cares about this.

"...They all married you at the same time, so it's not the same for them, okay?"

What's the difference?

"There's a huge difference. A proper marriage is the same as a secret affair. How will people we used to know view us?"

At this moment, Kyoka also pointed out the problem in a somewhat subtle way.

It might sound meaningless, but for Kyoka, it meant something completely different.

Everyone married Bai Ye at different times.

After all, many of them were quite far apart in age, and some were still students, so how could they possibly get married?

So Bai Ye also got married first, following several adults, including Qian, who was already an adult.

Akane and Kyoka are ten years apart in age...

The remaining sisters are all around the same age, so there isn't a significant age gap between them.

At the time, no one felt there was anything wrong, and Kyoka didn't feel anything either.

But as time went by and she got older, she also felt some pressure.

Their family situation is, after all, a minority in this world; most people are still monogamous.

She and Bai Ye had always interacted like this, and now that they were suddenly going to become husband and wife, she felt very uncomfortable...

Most importantly, it's really strange that she suddenly and inexplicably said she wanted to marry him!

At least find another "companion" to be with!

...But all those people from back then are now married, and she's the only one left. How could she possibly bring it up now?

"Let them look. We're all acquaintances; they've known about us for a long time... Besides, don't you think that in other people's eyes, you're already my wife?"

"..."

Of course, Byakuya responded to Kyoka's statement with a smile and a relaxed attitude.

These words caused Kyoka's expression to change slightly. Her previously helpless look became a little relaxed.

Indeed, whether they are married or not is not something that all outsiders know.

This identity is mostly known only to themselves.

After all, professions like those of Qian and Erya are inherently secretive and cannot be disclosed to everyone.

So most people know he's a womanizer and has many women, but they don't know which ones are actually his women.

Well, basically they're all grouped together.

Therefore, since Kyoka spends a lot of time with Byakuya and works with him, everyone naturally considers them to be a couple, and Kyoka has never denied this to outsiders.

Yes, they are on official business right now.

Kyoka became an editor at their publishing house, and is now in charge of the manga section.

Although she herself didn't really want to work for the publishing house that was "owned by her own family," since that would give the impression of relying on others, she didn't like that feeling.

But after weighing the pros and cons, I still feel most comfortable being with my family.

That's why Akane and Alice were able to run away without worry; they could leave the rest to Kyoka.

"So what if it looks like it? I'm not actually... What are you doing?"

Kyoka was naturally helpless and resentful about those things, so she was drinking alone in a huff, venting all her pent-up frustrations.
