I'll talk to May separately later.
Yotsuba: "Since Ichika's topic is boring, let's do something fun together."
Dongfang Chen: "What interesting thing happened?"
Yotsuba flashed a bright smile and held up a deck of cards: "Want to play a joker game before dinner? I'm really good at it!"
"Heh, you're pretty strong, aren't you? Then let me see just how strong you are. Let's make it clear beforehand, the loser will be punished, like having a sticker on their face."
He readily accepted Yotsuba's suggestion, figuring he was just waiting around anyway and would kill some time.
"No problem, I accept your challenge!"
Then Yotsuba looked at her sisters: "Ichika, Miku, Itsuki, do you want to come too?"
Ichika: "Count me in."
Miku: "Then I'll do it too."
May: "I'm going to help Nino, you guys have fun."
More than an hour later.
Another note was added to Yotsuba's face, making a total of eight.
Ichika had one slip of paper on her face, Miku had two, and Touhou Chen's face was completely clean, without a single slip of paper. Yotsuba was the worst off.
She complained, "Why is this happening? Did you all conspire to bully me on purpose?"
Ichika: "It's because your expression is too easy to guess, you idiot Yotsuba."
Miku: "You can tell which card to draw just by looking at their expressions. If you don't lose, who will?"
Dongfang Chen: "I can only say that you are not suitable for playing this game, Siye."

"Damn it, let's do it again! I promise I won't lose next time!"
Yotsuba was indignant and still wanted to prove her strength.
At this moment, May came out of the kitchen: "Everyone, stop for a moment, it's time to eat dinner."
"Oh, I see."
The group responded, put away their cards, tore off the notes from their faces, and went to the restaurant together.
Seven delicious dishes were laid out on the table, each showcasing the chef's superb skills and sincere dedication.
Yotsuba: "As expected of Nino, I can have a feast today."
Ichika: "It's all thanks to Dongfang Jun!"
Miku: "Four dishes are usually the most we have."
Nino: "You guys are all talk and no action, aren't you? Try cooking for a few days and see what happens!"
May: "Alright, alright, everyone, please sit down!"
Everyone took their seats.
At this moment, Nino took out the gift she had prepared as a token of her gratitude—a carefully wrapped box—and handed it to Dongfang Chen with a touch of shyness: "This is a small token of my appreciation. Thank you for saving me."
The fact that she could get such a proud and arrogant person to honestly say thank you is enough to prove her sincerity.
Dongfang Chen took the box and smiled, "I'll accept the gift without hesitation."
Yotsuba quickly raised her hand as well: "Me too, me too! I also have a gift for Higashikata-kun. Thank you for saving Nino."
Ichika: "It's nothing valuable, but please accept it."
May: "Thank you for your continued care and support. Please accept this!"
Miku: "Please accept mine too."
The others also took out the gifts they had prepared.
There are expensive-looking high-end snacks, carefully selected trinkets, and exquisite water cups, etc.
They were all small gifts, but they represented their goodwill, and Dongfang Chen accepted them all without hesitation.
"Thank you everyone, this is the first time I've ever received so many gifts at once!"
Dongfang Chen smiled.
"Ichika said, 'Then Dongfang Jun must be overjoyed.'"
Dongfang Chen: "Let's just say that!"
Ichika: "That's quite a subtle way of putting it. Well then, everyone, let's get cooking, or the food will get cold."
Yotsuba: "Oh oh oh, let's get started, let's get started~" (Knife)
Chapter 136 Between men and women, is there any real friendship?
7:30 p.m.
After having dinner at May's house, Dongfang Chen didn't linger and said goodbye.
"Let me see you off, and Nino will come along too," May said with a smile.
Nino muttered to herself, "No one else would get this treatment."
Yotsuba: "Then I'll go see Dongfang-kun off too."
Dongfang Chen waved his hand: "I'm not some old man who can't walk, why would I need so many of you to escort me?"
Ichika patted Yotsuba on the shoulder: "Yotsuba, just let Nino and Itsuki go."
May and Dongfang Chen have a close relationship; Dongfang Chen is Nina's savior.
Who knows, they might have something to say to each other in private?
Although they are sisters, everyone has their own privacy and not everything needs to be said.
So the three of them went downstairs.
Looking at the rain outside, Dongfang Chen turned to the two women behind him and said, "Let's stop here!"
May took a receipt out of her pocket and handed it to him: "This is something my father asked me to give to you. He said it's a small token of his appreciation, so please accept it."
Dongfang Chen took it and looked at it; it was a check for ten million.
"As expected of a wealthy family, they are very generous. I will accept it without hesitation."
He accepted it calmly.
He's already pocketed 10 yuan; would he really throw it away?
After all, he doesn't have much wealth; he only has a few small goals in total.
Money is always a good thing, the more the merrier.
May smiled and nodded, glanced at Nino beside her, and then waved to him: "Then I'll go up first, Morning, good night."
"Yes, Chen too, goodnight." He replied with a smile.
Now only Dongfang Chen and Nino are standing at the apartment entrance.
Outside, the rain was pouring down, and two people stood silently under the eaves.
After a while, he asked, "So, Nino-kun, is there anything you want to say to me?"
"I want to ask, given how rude I was to you before, why did you still come to save me?"
Her gaze was fixed on Dongfang Chen.
So you do have some self-awareness, you know you treated me badly, right?
Dongfang Chen just smiled and said, "Why so many questions? When a friend cries and begs me for help, and I'm able to help in any way I can, isn't it only right that I lend a hand?"
Nino was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Who knows what really happened?"
"Think about it however you like. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
Without waiting for her response, Dongfang Chen had already opened his umbrella and stepped into the rain.
Watching his retreating figure, which showed no sign of stopping for me, as he walked away into the distance.
She couldn't help but curse, "What an infuriating guy!"
Then she gritted her teeth and stomped her foot again.
He bowed deeply to Dongfang Chen and said loudly, "Dongfang Chen, thank you for saving my life, allowing me to continue living with them."
Her gratitude was genuine.
For her, her sisters were more important than her own life.
Having survived a near-death experience, she will cherish every moment spent with her sisters even more in the future.
Of course, I will also live each day to the fullest.
Although her most painful memories were erased, she already knew how terrifying it was from the very beginning when she was haunted by the strange phenomenon.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have abandoned her sisters and gone far away alone; she just didn't want to drag them down with her.
I have received your thanks.
