Tazaki Toru looked calm, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Yes, because I'm very confident."
Kubo's mother originally intended to subtly suggest to Tazaki Toru that her daughter was having trouble finding a partner, and to give her daughter a helping hand in the process.
Based on her observation, it was clear that her daughter and the man in front of her were not in that kind of relationship.
Looking at Tazaki Toru's behavior so far, his relationship with his daughter doesn't seem like that of ordinary friends; at least they must be more than just friends.
If I can help push things forward, that would be a good thing.
As for the rest, let the young people do what they want.
But what Tazaki Toru said next was far beyond her expectations, and it was because of this that she began to re-evaluate Tazaki Toru as a man.
In terms of background and appearance, he was impeccable, and his speech was extremely proper.
Compared to the blind dates she had previously chosen for her daughter, this was a whole level above.
He spoke with composure and grace, and there was not a trace of the arrogance often associated with the wealthy. This alone reveals his good upbringing.
In conclusion, the daughter's taste in men is indeed quite good.
"Since Mr. Tazaki has already said so much, I won't say anything more."
"You probably know Mingyou's personality very well. I'll need your help in both her life and work from now on."
Kubo's mother deliberately emphasized the word "life" while observing Tazaki Toru's expression.
Tazaki Toru nodded slightly, his expression still serious: "Thank you for your trust. I will take good care of Miss Akira."
Kubo's mother wondered to herself: Did he understand or not?
……
……
Second floor corridor.
Rin Tachibana and Hina Aoki were squatting together in the corridor, holding their breath and straining their ears to eavesdrop.
Hina Aoki tugged at Rin Tachibana's sleeve and asked in a low voice:
"When did he start calling you Miss Mingyou?"
Rin Tachibana's face stiffened, feeling slightly guilty: "No... it's just a name, let him call it whatever he wants. His mouth is on his face, I can't sew it back up, can I?"
Hina Aoki was truly frustrated, but given the current situation, she had absolutely no confidence to rebuke Rin Tachibana.
This was the biggest mess Aoki Hina had ever made, nearly ruining Tachibana Rin's efforts.
Therefore, Aoki Hina appeared exceptionally docile when facing Tachibana Rin.
At the same time, a sense of worry arose in her heart.
If this continues, will Sister Yang really become a concubine?
Hina Aoki couldn't help but let her mind wander.
The two girls continued to eavesdrop, very nervous, and couldn't help but hold each other's hands tightly, their fingers intertwined.
Kubo's mother's attitude was quite different from before; she didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for Tazaki Toru, which surprised them somewhat.
From what she said, it seemed that she approved of Tazaki Toru continuing to live at home.
They heard every word of Tazaki Toru's monologue and his praise of Tachibana Rin.
Hina Aoki secretly observed Rin Tachibana's expression; her face was flushed, and her mouth was practically stretched to her ears.
Hina Aoki could feel the temperature in Rin Tachibana's palm slowly rising.
This is not surprising at all; anyone who hears such words would feel their heart surge with emotion.
Tazaki Toru is usually a straightforward person and never hesitates to praise others.
But speaking privately is a completely different concept from speaking to one's parents.
Tazaki Toru's unanimous affirmation almost made Tachibana Rin feel overwhelmed with happiness.
If it were now, what would happen if the mother rejected Tazaki Toru?
Rin Tachibana even had the courage to rush downstairs and tell him that if he was going to move, he should move her too.
It would be a lie for Hina Aoki to say she wasn't envious.
But besides envy, what came to Aoki Hina's mind was recognition.
Rin Tachibana's hard work over the past year was not only seen by Toru Tazaki, but also felt by Hina Aoki.
People always say that Tachibana Rin is a girl who doesn't like to work hard, and that she just goes to get off work like a vase all day long, and that becoming a voice actress is just a hobby.
People who make such sarcastic remarks are truly despicable.
However, Toru Tazaki was able to acknowledge her efforts and hard work in front of her parents.
Long ago, Hina Aoki had been wondering why Rin Tachibana had unknowingly fallen for Toru Tazaki.
Now, it seems she has found the answer.
Requesting monthly votes and participating in a lucky draw at the end of the month.
As is customary at the end of the month, I'm asking for your monthly votes!
This month's prize is Yang Jie's photo album, so don't miss out! The winner will be announced next month.
Next month's monthly pass prize is a photobook of the drum team members. I can only say, my good brother is so generous, I'm totally sold!
Please vote for me!
Thank you for your support!
475. So, is this a friend request?
After gaining the approval of Kubo's parents, Toru Tazaki breathed a sigh of relief.
Often, Toru Tazaki simply doesn't show his emotions out of habit.
He didn't want Tachibana Rin and Aoki Hina to sense his emotions and become even more uneasy.
So much so that at this moment, a relaxed and carefree expression finally appeared on his face.
"So, Mr. Tazaki can make such an expression too," Kubo's mother said in surprise.
"I'm sorry you had to see this."
"Please take good care of Mingyou's affairs."
"Yes."
"It's getting late. You all have work to do tomorrow, so we won't bother you any longer."
"Then I'll go upstairs and inform Miss Mingyou."
"Need not."
Kubo's mother glanced at the stairwell and said without raising her voice, "We're leaving now."
Rin Tachibana, who was crouching at the corner on the second floor, shrank her neck. She felt that she shouldn't have been exposed.
The mother smiled helplessly, then turned to look at Tazaki Toru: "That's just how this child is."
Tazaki Toru chuckled softly as well, then followed him to the entrance, nodding as he watched the other person leave.
Upon returning to the living room, I saw two girls sneaking down the stairs.
Aoki Hina was in front, and Tachibana Rin was behind, with her hands on Aoki Hina's shoulders, burying her face in her hands, revealing a pair of beautiful but slightly frightening eyes, staring intently at Tazaki Toru.
Tazaki Toru's gaze passed over Aoki Hina and met Tachibana Rin's eyes.
Rin Tachibana immediately lowered her eyes and looked away for some reason.
His mind was filled with the words that Tazaki Toru had said to his parents before.
It was as if every word had transformed into tangible symbols, densely flooding her mind and causing a turmoil.
In a daze, Hina Aoki felt like she was being superfluous. Could it be that she had become part of their play?
"Tazaki-kun, I'm really sorry about that."
Hina Aoki stepped forward and bowed deeply to Toru Tazaki.
Tazaki Toru's gaze fell on the girl in front of him.
"Miss Hinata, don't worry about it."
Hina Aoki understood that Toru Tazaki hated lying the most.
Even now, she hasn't been able to completely change this personality trait.
No matter what happens, she always thinks about how to cleverly manipulate language and set traps to make people fall into them.
Each time, it seemed to become a self-inflicted trap, far less effective than Tazaki Toru's honesty.
She also wanted to be an honest person like Tazaki Toru, but she always ended up doing so when faced with unavoidable circumstances.
If we say that Tazaki Toru is a person composed of 100% integrity and honesty.
Then I must be a complete liar and hypocrite.
She was like a vampire who couldn't stand the light and was locked in her room all day, curled up and gazing at the sun-drenched courtyard.
If you reach out eagerly, you will be burned by him.
Aoki Hina gave a slightly forced smile, greeted Tachibana Rin, and then went straight upstairs to her room.
Rin Tachibana wanted to go up with her, but Toru Tazaki spoke softly:
"Ms. Mingyou, could you stay a moment? I have something I'd like to tell you."
"Eh?"
At the top of the stairs, Aoki Hina paused, but her upward steps did not stop; she hurried and stumbled as she made her way up.
