Let's do it again, Yukino.

Page 158

Still in the midst of a cold war with Yuki, the latter, in a fit of pique, went to spend the night at the apartment where the Demon King Haruno lived. This caused the sister-obsessed older sister to drive to their apartment that very night, point to her own face, and, completely lacking the demeanor of a company president, give her a severe scolding.

But is this a once-in-a-lifetime event?

Compared to when I was reborn,

A patch of white, smooth skin in the bathroom that was impossible to look away from.

Haruhi's heart trembled slightly as she watched Yukinoshita Haruno step out of the car. Her white dress was both elegant and innocent, and her delicate features bore a striking resemblance to Yukinoshita's. This time, Yukinoshita Haruno, the eldest daughter of Yukinoshita, made her official debut.

Spring sighed inwardly.

Fortunately, I love long hair and have no interest in short hair.

Miss Yang walked towards Xiaoxue while smiling.

"Xiaoxue is really something. It's already summer vacation, but she doesn't know how to come home and spend more time with her older sister. Instead, she's still living in a rented apartment and even participating in activities that Xiaojing is against. It makes me feel so lonely at home all by myself."

"By the way, did your sister put a tracking device in your bag again?"

This sister-complex sister, who is extremely obsessed with her younger sister, has a history of such behavior. Even the innocent Xiaoxue knew this fact in her past life, so Chunri asked Xiaoxue in a low voice, somewhat worried.

"It shouldn't be; I threw those away long ago."

At this moment, the Demon King Yang finally arrived beside the two of them.

"Eh? Hachiman isn't here? There's a stranger here? Is he the new second male lead in your club? Could it be that our Yuki has also learned to two-time? How youthful!"

"..."

Have you ever seen such a handsome second male lead?!

Kasuga knew that the simplest way to avoid being at a disadvantage in conversations with this demon king was to avoid talking to such a shrewd person altogether.

So the boy turned his face away, looking like he didn't want to talk to him at all.

"Could it be that this stranger I just met has the same personality as Hachiman? That would be a real shame, as Yuki is very picky about the guys she likes!!"

“Yang Nai, that’s my student.”

Finally, it was Hiratsuka Shizuka who broke the atmosphere and took the lead in introducing...

"Oh, I see. I thought it was a new friend of Xiaoxue's, but I didn't expect it to be one of your people, Xiaojing."

"Don't call me that."

Perhaps the title made her feel a little ashamed, because after speaking, Hiratsuka Shizuka turned her face toward Haruhi.

"This is someone you were once a senior to, and she's now studying at a national university in Chiba. She's also the older sister of Yukino Yukinoshita. My personal advice is that someone as simple-minded as you shouldn't associate with her."

"I understand."

Springtime nodded in deep agreement.

"Is Xiaojing talking badly about me behind my back with this stranger?"

Yang Nai, the Demon King, was still smiling happily, but he had no intention of staying any longer and looked at Xiao Xue beside him.

"But it's alright, little Yukino, you're going home with your sister today, and your mother is waiting for you."

After all, Yukinoshita spent most of the summer vacation in her apartment, which her mother disapproved of. For the sake of her younger sister's future, Yukinoshita Haruno took this opportunity to personally come and pick up her sister.

Xiaoxue offered no resistance, calmly nodded, said goodbye to Hiratsuka Shizuka and the others, and got into the car.

As expected, Yukino has changed a lot since her first year of high school.

but----

Before getting on the bus, Yukinoshita Haruno thought of something and turned to look at the stranger whose gaze was currently fixed on her.

A sisterly smile appeared on her lips.

If I'm not mistaken,

He must be the Kasuga-kun that the young lady from Tokyo once mentioned.

However, it's a bit overrated.

He looks a bit silly...

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Get out of here!

Since Yukino brought Yukino home, Haruhi hasn't contacted Yukino herself for almost two weeks.

Yes, a full two weeks have passed.

He doesn't reply to emails sent to his phone, and he doesn't answer phone calls at all; he's completely isolated from the world.

While this isn't exactly an uncommon situation, it means he's already spent two weeks, or even longer, with that childish Junko.

Although Hiratsuka Shizuka would occasionally invite him out for a meal or a drive during those two weeks, most of the time, he would hear that annoying voice echoing in his ears.

"Speaking of which, after living here for so long, it seems that Xiao Qing hasn't hidden any erotic books at home?"

"I have two hands, and I don't lack girlfriends, so why would I need erotic novels?"

Sitting on the sofa, Chunri, unusually focused on reading, had a mountain of books piled up beside him.

In addition, the blue-rimmed glasses on his nose gave Chunri a touch of quiet scholarly air.

Junko excitedly ran over and asked, "Do you want me to buy you a computer? I know Junko; with the advancement of technology, people generally acquire knowledge about those things through computers!!"

"Need not."

Computers don't hold much appeal for springtime.

He doesn't play games, nor does he have any shows he'd particularly like to watch. Until he gets a proper job, computers and such are just optional for him.

"Xiao Qing, you don't act like a teenager at all. Junko is really looking forward to catching you secretly reading porn behind your mother's back."

"Junko, don't you think you're not behaving like a mother at all? You're so noisy, can't you see I'm studying?"

Haruhi, who was disturbed and unable to read at all, pushed up her glasses and couldn't help but yell at her mother.

Other mothers try their best to get their children to study hard, but my mother is the opposite. She not only disturbs me time and time again, but also repeatedly instills in me the idea that studying is a joke.

"Studying doesn't matter, and it's summer vacation now. Summer vacation should be used to have fun, right? How about we go to the beach today, mother and son?"

"...No way."

Springtime is not a seashell; it cannot maintain its original indifference and apathy. It cannot ignore everything happening around it and continue doing its own thing.

Junko's voice still came through like a sparrow chirping.

"Haha, I know Junko. Haru is annoyed with me because Yukino isn't around."

"..."

Spring rolls his eyes, glances at the clock on the wall, thinks for a moment, gets up from the sofa, picks up his book, and runs into the kitchen.

Before long, the boy came running out of the kitchen again, carrying a book in one hand and a bowl of freshly made potato stew in the other.

The rice had been cooked long ago.

"Eat up, then go get some rest and don't bother me again."

"Xiao Qing, what you're doing seems more like feeding a pet..."

"If you're not going to eat it, I'll throw it away."

Although her son seemed quite disgusted with the lunch he had prepared for her, Junko didn't care and quickly started eating.

"It tastes pretty good. I don't remember Yukino teaching you how to make this kind of dish, right?"

"Just read more books that you, Junko, find meaningless."

Haruhi's face no longer held the stern expression she had shown before. She casually tossed the cookbook in front of Junko, her expression nonchalant.

Meanwhile, Junko, still beaming with delight, covered her cheeks and exclaimed in admiration.

"These tender chunks of meat and soft, blocky potatoes could totally be the signature dish of the restaurant we're opening!"

"This is the only one I must refuse."

Looking at Junko, who still harbored beautiful fantasies about opening a shop, Haruhi rejected her invitation to be the chef without hesitation.

After lunch,

Wash dishes, wipe the table,

It's just another mundane and simple daily routine.

Part-time work, communication, going home

Many trivial things

They piled up together.

In order to work at the Furyu-an in the afternoon, Haruhi, who was far from the leisurely life that a male protagonist should have, took a quiet nap after finishing his work. During this time, Junko was quite sensible and did not disturb him again.

Sigh, in the end, Haruhi still doesn't know who between him and Junko really needs more care...

……

…………

at night,

heavily clouded,

The moon did not rise quietly as it had yesterday.

Although the streetlights are still working normally

The night is much darker tonight than yesterday.

After a busy night at Fengliu'an, Chunri rode her Xueshan bike home via a shortcut.

As I passed that quiet, deserted path I had traversed countless times,

The road comes to an end.

He saw it again.
