As she spoke, her long, black-stockinged legs intertwined, and the memory of recording him flashed through her mind, accompanied by a soft, gurgling sound.

Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed even more, and she covered her face in shame, rolling around like a caterpillar.

Whether she liked it or not, she had to figure out why her heart was beating so fast!

She wouldn't give up until she figured it out and put it into practice!

Just then.

After a long silence on the phone, Lai finally spoke up: "Sure, Himuro. We haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, it really is time to meet up."

"I happen to be in Tokyo with Qiong for a trip. If you're free, how about we set a time to get together?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Himuro Ayame, who was rolling around, excitedly rolled to her phone, quickly unmuted it, and said, flustered:

"Lai, you're coming to Tokyo, is that true?"

Should I come pick you up?

"Have you booked a hotel? Would you like to come and stay with me?"

"Where do you plan to go for sightseeing while in Tokyo?"

"Would you like me to be your guide?"

the other side.

Lai slurped his noodles as if frozen in place, his head buzzing as he listened to Himuro's classic five-question mantra.

Is this still the little girl who needed to be protected?

After a moment of silence, he shook his head, still covered in noodles, and chuckled softly:

"Don't worry, Qiong and I have already arrived in Tokyo. We're in Chuo Ward now, and we've already visited all the famous sights in Tokyo."

"I see..."

Himuro Ayame's excitement was instantly extinguished by the cold water, and her mood immediately turned dejected.

If she had known it would be like this, she should have called a few days earlier so that she could have met Lai sooner and even acted as his guide when visiting famous scenic spots.

Make him look at me with new eyes, make him realize that I am no longer the weak-willed little girl I once was!

Chapter 231 Returns to Okumizome Town...

Upon hearing this, Lai frowned and stirred the noodles, her mind filled with countless thoughts. She could vaguely sense a hint of sadness and disappointment in Bing Shi's words.

He could guess a little about the reason for her disappointment; it was simply that she wanted to spend a few more days with him to make up for the time she left without saying goodbye when he was a child.

Unfortunately, Himuro's appointment was a bit late, and he could only spare one day at most, and that was the day after tomorrow.

I need to go to Hyakkaou Academy tomorrow to see if I can get my privilege reward back from Kirari.

Even if I don't marry him, my children might need him in the future. Besides, he won this through his own abilities, so it would be unreasonable not to take it.

After receiving it, there were still four days of vacation left.

Over the course of four days, he planned to go to Okumizome Town with Sora, to experience what Sora had experienced, and to see what Sora had seen.

Then, after the holiday ended and he returned to Kanagawa, he planned to visit the graves of Sora's deceased parents and brother.

To his shame, despite having been with Qiong Qingmei for so many years, he had never once gone to pay his respects at her grave.

Of course, it's not that I don't want to go, but Qiong won't allow it, saying the time isn't right yet.

Every year when I take her to pay respects, I make sure I don't get close and stay far away.

Lai stopped stirring his noodles with his chopsticks and looked shrewdly to the right at Qiong, who was eating noodles with his mouth bulging.

At the time, I found it strange, but now it seems that the timing was indeed not right, given that my status was not appropriate.

Things are different now. She is now a close relative of mine, and I certainly have the right to go and pay respects to my parents-in-law and brother-in-law.

After understanding the whole story, Lai's face showed a strange expression, and he muttered to himself, "If that's the case, did Qiong always know from a young age... that he would kneel at her feet?"

Thinking of this, a wry smile appeared on his handsome face. It seemed everyone had labeled her "future husband" since childhood...

"Fine, fine, let her keep thinking about it. We'll make her have ten or eight babies to compensate us later."

Lai murmured to himself, his mood light and he pinched her pouty goldfish cheeks.

The latter glanced back while slurping noodles, then pretended to be pleased as he picked up the bowl and drank the thick soup.

"Your skin is so soft..."

Lai squeezed the phone for a few moments, then let go and said gently into the phone, "Changpu, can you hear me?"

"I can hear you, you speak, I'm listening."

Himuro Iris responded listlessly, much like a child who couldn't find their favorite pill bug.

Upon hearing this, Lai hesitated and said, "Don't be upset. Although Qiong and I have finished shopping, we can still get together and chat about everyday things."

"Next time you have time to go back to Kanagawa, I'll be your guide and take you to see all the sights of Kanagawa. How about that?"

After I finished speaking, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

Lai didn't rush him, and leisurely slurped up his beef noodles.

Soon, the bowl of beef noodles, neither too big nor too small, was completely devoured.

Just as he finished eating and habitually let out a burp, Himuro Ayame, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up quietly, startling him so much that he hurriedly swallowed the burp.

"Lai, I'll listen to you, but next time I go back to Kanagawa, you have to be my guide. I've almost forgotten all the famous sights in Kanagawa."

"Don't worry, next time I come back, I'll definitely be your guide. Even if you want to go to Kabukicho, I'll arrange everything perfectly for you!"

Lai patted his chest and spoke with righteous indignation.

"Tch, all you do is tease me! I don't want to go to Kabukicho!"

Himuro Ayame said reproachfully, then paused for a moment before speaking in an almost mosquito-like voice, "I want to go to the orphanage with you..."

After saying that, his breathing became rapid for no apparent reason.

"what?"

"What did you say? I can't hear you!"

Lai's questioning words immediately broke her defenses, and her rapid breathing turned into frustration. "Nothing, I was just asking when you're going to bring Qiong to get together with me."

Upon hearing this, Lai stopped asking questions and said gently, "How about the day after tomorrow? I have something to do tomorrow. You can decide the time and place. Just let me know by phone or text later."

"it is good."

Himuro Ayame was silent for a few seconds, nodded, and then said with a hint of reluctance, "Then I'll hang up..."

Lai Qing hummed in agreement and said with a gentle smile, "I hope that when I see Ms. Ugly Duckling the day after tomorrow, she will give me a big surprise."

Upon hearing this, Himuro Ayame's icy beauty blossomed into a stunning smile. "Then please wait and see the day after tomorrow, Mr. Bully."

Then.

The two hung up the phone in such perfect unison that it could be described as flowing smoothly.

After hanging up the phone, Lai buried her head in her bowl and drank every last drop of the thick soup.

"Hiccup~"

Feeling the fullness in his abdomen, Lai let out a satisfied burp, the burp even having a drawn-out sound.

"Meow!"

Xiao Qiluoli, who had already finished eating her beef and was watching a TV series, looked at him with disgust and gave him a look of contempt.

Honestly, he has such a handsome face that could bring ruin to the country, yet he does such despicable things behind the scenes.

At least hit it normally! Dragging out that sound gives me goosebumps.

"Oh dear, how dare you mock your master! Behold my finger-flicking divine skill!"

Lai bent his finger and flicked it with a smile onto its white, furry forehead.

Little Kiroli silently rolled her eyes at him, ignoring the long, slender fingers that were messing around on her forehead, and comfortably lay on the sofa watching TV.

I must say, it was quite pleasant to play.

After tapping the dishes a few times, Lai got up and put the dishes in the kitchen. It took her about ten minutes to wash all the dishes.

Then, holding a bag of mango-flavored popsicles, she sat down next to Qiong.

He picked up the fun stick from his bag, took two small bites, and chewed slowly, saying, "It's quite crunchy and refreshing, but it's too sweet. I don't like it."

So he held the fun stick to Kasugano Sora's lips.

Kasugano Sora, who was typing, felt something near her mouth and instinctively opened her mouth to bite it.

Immediately, the fun sticks made a "click-click-click" sound.

Upon hearing this, she turned her head while chewing on her play stick and saw that it was Lai feeding her, so she continued typing away.

While feeding her with great enthusiasm, Lai said in a gentle voice, "Qiong, Changpu just called and said she wants to meet with us."

Kasugano Sora frowned, slowed her typing, and took a bite of her soda stick, saying, "You agreed?"

"Hey hey hey."

Lai smiled sheepishly, "It's been seven or eight years since we last met, and you mentioned last time that you wanted to see Changpu, so I just agreed."

Hearing Lai call her "sweet flag" so intimately, Kasugano Sora felt a surge of anger rising in her heart for no reason.

But she forced herself to hold it back, then looked expectant and smiled sweetly as she asked, "When are we going? I can't wait!"

Lai took out another bright yellow fun stick and continued feeding it, saying, "The day after tomorrow. I told her it was the day after tomorrow, since I have something to do tomorrow."

Upon hearing the words "something's wrong," Kasugano Sora stopped typing, turned around suspiciously, stared into his deep eyes, and said in a low voice:

Are you going out again tomorrow?

"Forehead....."

Chapter 232 Two Old Foxes

"Forehead....."

Lai was momentarily speechless, his eyes darting around almost imperceptibly. "Yes, yes, go out..."
