Tokyo: After years of stagnation, the heiress of the yakuza arrives.

On the lawn outside the villa.

Amamiya Kaoru looked completely dumbfounded, frozen in place.

"No... I, I was just joking! How could you take it seriously!"

"Damn it, come back here!" Kaoru Amamiya watched Shido Kuroba's retreating figure, her previous composure vanished, and she instantly lost her composure, her body turning red with visible speed. She hurriedly chased after him, afraid that something bad might happen if she arrived too late.

To others, what just happened might be a joke, but to Shido Kuroba, he is the kind of person who is capable of doing such a thing!

They have no sense of propriety, righteousness, shame, morality, or conscience; all they have is a desire for success and a deep-seated hatred of poverty!

These kinds of people are the most terrifying; they'll do anything for money!

With a combination of factors, Amamiya Kaoru chickened out. Less than a minute after she said it, she regretted it eight hundred times. Damn it, why did she have to be so stupid!

If Kuroba Shido really succeeds, wouldn't his seniority be above hers in the future?

At that point, the tables will turn completely, from Kuroba Shido calling him "teacher" to her calling Kuroba Shido "teacher"...

Amamiya Kaoru: "..."

No!!

This is unacceptable!!!

Amamiya Kaoru was practically out of her wits; she had never run so fast in her life. After Amamiya Kaoru left, only Shimotsuki Airi was left standing there dumbfounded, still savoring what had just happened.

For example... some strange middle-aged man seems to no longer want to take the long way around, and wants to...

Airi Shimotsuki: "..."

No!!

This is unacceptable!!!

Shimotsuki Airi and Amamiya Kaoru turned into identical meme faces, their souls practically flying out of their mouths. They gasped for breath, then scrambled back into the villa, determined to stop this from happening!

I had considered that Kuroba Shido was a lolicon, I had considered that Kuroba Shido wanted to live off women and take shortcuts, but I never expected that Kuroba Shido wasn't after her, nor was he after Amamiya Kaoru, but after her mother!!!

As soon as Kuroba Shido entered the villa, two people rushed in behind him, their eyes wide open, looking like they wanted to devour him.

"What are you two doing?" Kuroba Shido looked at the two of them in silence. Why were these two so red-faced and swollen-necked? Had Guan Yu possessed them?

No way, it seems like Guan Yu isn't that popular in Japan. Besides, Guan Yu is a positive character, okay? Possession is something only an evil god could do!

"What are you going to do!" Amamiya Kaoru calmed down first, but was still panting, her eyes wide as she asked Kuroba Shido what he wanted to do.

Kuroba Shido's expression was somewhat strange: "Why... are we taking a shortcut? Didn't you just tell me that?"

Amamiya Kaoru: "???"

"I...you...this..."

Amamiya Kaoru was speechless for a moment. She wanted to say something, but found herself speechless. Kuroba Shido was right. She was indeed the one who said something about avoiding detours and shortcuts in life... but she was just joking!

Everyone knows this is a joke, okay? How come you actually took it to heart?

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean,' what's this and that? You're stammering. Teacher, you seem to be in a hurry. I know you are, but don't rush. After I succeed, you'll suffer for it." Kuroba Shido smiled wickedly, then continued walking into the villa.

He walked along, looking around as if searching for something...

Amamiya Kaoru: "???"

There's bound to be... some hardship ahead?

A huge question mark appeared above Amamiya Kaoru's head; she was even starting to question the meaning of life...

A petite figure rushed over quickly, grabbed Kuroba Shido's leg, and bit him: "This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed!!!"

Shimotsuki Airi's attack was imbued with rage!

The Black Feather Warrior said, "..."

My thigh feels sore...

"Ahhhhh—"

Kuroba Shido's scream echoed through the living room, startling Shimotsuki Takari, who was tidying up the guest room upstairs: "What was that sound?!"

Hearing Kuroba Shido scream, he hurriedly put down what he was doing and ran downstairs, only to see Kuroba Shido and his daughter wrestling on the ground, one in front of the other.

"You brat, you better let it go!!!"

Kuroba Shido gritted his teeth, grabbed Shimotsuki Airi's face, and kept pulling it to both sides. Shimotsuki Airi was in so much pain that tears were about to come out, but she was still very stubborn and did not let go, continuing to attack Kuroba Shido.

She risked everything for Xiao Gao. Those despicable villains, die!

Shuangyue Gaoli: "..."

"ah--"

The previous scream was from Kuroba Shido, and the current scream is from Shimotsuki Takari. She hadn't seen anyone for a short while, and now this strange thing had happened.

A few minutes later.

"Kuroba-kun, are you alright?" Shimotsuki Takari asked with concern. Shimotsuki Airi, who was standing there as punishment, was sulking with her cheeks puffed up by Kuroba Shido. She looked unconvinced.

"I'm afraid this leg is going to die here... sigh."

Kuroba Shido clutched his injured leg, sighed, and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, displaying a man's stubbornness as he tried to hold back his tears.

"I'm really sorry, Kuroba-kun. How about this, you can stay at my house for now until you're fully recovered. I'll hire a caregiver to look after you. If you don't like my house, you can stay at the hospital too. Don't worry about the expenses, I'll reimburse you for everything..."

Shimotsuki Kori was very sincere, and she put her hands together to apologize to Kuroba Shido, her face full of remorse.

Upon hearing this, Kuroba Shido instantly felt no pain anywhere, and his whole body was filled with power... no, it was that his whole body ached, and he was about to enjoy bliss.

Before Kuroba Shido could speak, Amamiya Kaoru and Shimotsuki Airi spoke up in unison, their voices extremely sharp.

"no!!!"

The Black Feather Warrior said, "..."

Shuangyue Gaoli: "..."

"What's wrong? Why can't it be?" Shimotsuki Takagi looked at the two of them with a strange expression, not understanding why they were reacting so strongly. They were injured, so shouldn't they be taking care of each other?

They were doctors themselves, and since Kuroba Shido had become like this largely because of their daughter Airi, naturally, as her mother, she needed to show some respect and seek their forgiveness...

Isn't this how it should be? Why...?

"I disagree with this!" Shimotsuki Airi shouted, her adorable loli voice echoing in the villa's hall. Her otherwise unremarkable chest heaved slightly... heaved, but not completely, because it was not noticeable.

"Disagreement is invalid!" Shuangyue Gaoli rejected her daughter's objection without hesitation, glared at her, and displayed her maternal authority!

The meaning is obvious... You caused this mess, and Mom is cleaning up your mess, and you still don't agree?

Because she made so many mistakes in one day, Shimotsuki Airi no longer dared to confront them directly. After being glared at by the torment, she became listless and felt like she would never be happy again. She hung her head and pouted, looking aggrieved...

"Teacher, I also disagree with this." After Shimotsuki Airi was rejected, Amamiya Kaoru also spoke up, strongly supporting the group. She knew very well that if she didn't speak up now, things would take a turn for the worse. This couldn't go on!

This time, Shuangyue Gaoli didn't rush to reject it. Instead, she looked at the other person with a puzzled expression: "Xiaoyu, you don't agree either?"

"Why?"

"Um... Teacher, think about it, you and Ellie are both lesbians, and this kid, teacher, don't let his decent appearance fool you, from what I know, he's not honest at all, he has several girlfriends at school... So, you know what I mean, teacher."

At this point, Amamiya Kaoru didn't care about anything else. She splashed whatever dirty water she could find on Kuroba Shido. The most important thing was to stop Kuroba Shido's evil plan to live off her. Everything else was a matter for later!

Stop it, you bastard! This is my teacher.

Shuangyue Gaoli: "..."

"Um, I think I understand. It is indeed a bit inconvenient. So... Xiaoyu, what do you mean?" Shuangyue Gaoli nodded and asked tentatively.

"Well then, I'm a doctor too, and I happen to be this kid's teacher. Let him stay at my place; it'll be more convenient for him to go to school..."

Amamiya Kaoru spoke confidently, nodding as she spoke.

Shuangyue Gaoli: "..."

Hearing this, Shimotsuki Airi, who was still feeling wronged, suddenly raised her head and looked at the old man in front of her with disbelief... Xiaoyu, are you acting in my shoes?
