Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

Hoshino Chiaki rubbed her red eyes and said to Ginjō.

"Don't take it to heart, Qianqiu. If it were you, I would rush over as soon as possible."

Ginjo's gentle voice made Hoshino Chiaki feel extremely fortunate. Now she finally realized how important it was to have a reliable man by her side.

"Oh, it's already this time and no one has had dinner yet."

Tomoko Matsumoto glanced at the wall clock and suddenly spoke.

We had originally planned to have dinner together after Ginjo and Chie Hoshino came back, but this unexpected incident happened.

After coming back, they were busy treating her wounds, so much so that everyone temporarily forgot about hunger.

It was not until the lady said this that they all felt their hungry stomachs.

"Really? I totally forgot about this. You guys wait a moment, I'll go heat up the food."

After saying this, Tomoko Matsumoto immediately turned around and went back to the kitchen, and Chiaki Hoshino quickly followed to help.

After a while, after a simple heating, one fragrant dish after another was served on the table.

Several people sat together and started moving quickly.

In the center of the table was a stew of several root vegetables and chicken, the broth was slightly lighter in color, which brought out the bright color of the carrots and lentils that were interspersed with it.

The brightly colored ingredients are cut into bite-sized pieces, strongly stimulating the appetite of hungry people.

"Mmm, it's delicious, Sister Tomoko."

As soon as Chie Hoshino tasted the delicious food, she immediately forgot all the unpleasantness she had just felt.

I had been looking forward to this moment on my way home from get off work. If it weren't for that damn man, I wouldn't have been able to eat Sister Tomoko's cooking so late.

Yincheng was not willing to be left behind and picked up a piece of radish and put it into his mouth.

Although the seasoning was a little light, it brought out the flavor of the stock perfectly.

Tomoko Matsumoto never uses commercially available powdered seasonings. Instead, she slowly simmers bonito and kelp into the soup, so the sweet and fresh taste is completely different.

Even though Ginjo doesn't like vegetables, he can still enjoy this stew that fully utilizes the sweetness and flavor of the vegetables and is cooked very well.

The chicken inside is also cooked very soft and tender, not dry at all, and the soft taste is simply impeccable.

A seemingly simple dish fully demonstrates the level of the chef.

Another dish, fried eggplant with meat, seems to be made with miso-flavored sauce, judging from its color.

The slightly golden eggplant and the shiny pork are so appetizing just by looking at them.

There is also a rich potato salad, refreshing pickled vegetables, hot miso soup and hearty white rice...

My wife’s cooking is not just about filling your stomach, it also heals the diners’ body and mind from the inside out.

As long as I can enjoy my wife’s delicious meal in the evening, all the twists and turns and fatigue of the day will disappear.

Ginjo Sousuke felt the sweet taste spreading in his mouth and couldn't help but turn his eyes to his wife sitting beside him...

Chapter 184 Does my wife also have such troubles?

It was late at night, and the sky, which seemed to be black as ink, was dotted with twinkling stars.

The moonlight shines on the lawn outside the window, casting a silvery white color.

The breeze blew, the leaves swayed gently, and the occasional sound of cicadas broke the silence around.

Although it was a little later than usual, the atmosphere in the house had returned to its usual warmth and liveliness.

After feasting on the food, everyone's face was filled with an expression of enjoyment.

"Huh... I'm so full... How can Tomoko-san's food be so delicious..."

Because of the injury on her back, Chie Hoshino couldn't lean on the chair, so she had to support her elbows and hold her chin with her palms.

"You seem to have eaten more today than usual."

Ginjo saw that her belly was visibly bulging under her shirt.

"Of course, because I'm injured and need a lot of nutrition."

"Tomoko-sister's magic cooking is very effective. Maybe the wound on my back has healed by now."

Chie Hoshino's eyes were narrowed into slits, as if she was still immersed in the ocean of delicious food.

"Since you can eat so much, then there's probably nothing wrong."

Ginjo glanced at Chie Hoshino who seemed a little lost in thought.

Chie Hoshino promised Ginjo that she would not argue with him today, so she just smiled faintly.

"Yeah, Sousuke-kun is right, a good appetite means there's nothing serious wrong."

"Given Chie's physical condition, I believe the wound will heal in a few days."

Matsumoto Tomoko nodded and looked at the two sisters. Apart from their slightly red eyes, they looked no different from usual.

"Thanks to Tomoko-san and Sosuke, I really don't know what I would have done if I were alone."

Chiaki Hoshino lowered her head, and in her tone, besides gratitude to them, there was also some blame on herself.

"Don't say that, Qianqiu. We live together, so it's only natural for us to help each other."

The lady leaned a little closer and gently stroked her hair.

"It's getting late, let Chie and the others go back and rest early."

Yincheng stood up with the help of the table, ready to help his wife clean up.

"Just leave it alone, Sousuke. I can do it myself today."

Tomoko Matsumoto stood up and stopped his hand.

"It's okay, Sister Tomoko, I'm not injured, and two people are faster."

"I'll help too."

Chiaki Hoshino raised her head and said.

"I also..."

"Forget about it. As a wounded person, you will be given special treatment today. Just go to the sofa and rest."

Before Chie Hoshino could finish her words, she was blocked by Ginjo.

"Hey, so this is a blessing in disguise for me?"

A hint of a smile appeared on her fair face.

"Stop talking nonsense. You don't want to encounter this kind of "disaster" again, do you?"

Ginjo clicked his tongue at her.

"Sosuke is right. I'm sorry, I said something wrong."

Chie Hoshino clasped her hands together and said embarrassedly.

From the kitchen came the sounds of running water and plates and bowls being piled up. With the cooperation of three people, the cleaning work was completed quickly.

Ginjo and Hoshino sisters said goodbye to their wives and walked up the stairs together.

"When you sleep at night, be sure to be careful not to put pressure on the wound on your back."

Walking to the door of their room, Ginjo instructed Chie Hoshino.

"Eh? Then how am I going to sleep?"

She tilted her head as she thought about the question.

"Of course I lie down on my stomach."

Ginjo said casually.

"Lie down? No, they're too big and will crush your flesh."

Chie Hoshino held up her heavy fruits in both hands and said seriously.

"elder sister!"

Chiaki Hoshino blushed first and quickly shook her sister's sleeve.

"..."

Yincheng indeed ignored this question and stood there speechless for a moment.

"It's really a worry that Sosuke can't understand, haha."

Chie Hoshino smiled at him.

"Thank you for your reminder, don't worry, as their owner, I will make them obedient."

She looked confident and seemed to have already figured out a solution.

"Well, that's good. Just pay attention to the wound."

"Good night, Chie, Chiaki."

"Good night, Sousuke."

After saying goodnight to each other, Ginjo and they returned to their respective rooms.

Ginjo Sosuke took a comfortable hot bath, then walked to the window wrapped in a bath towel.

The half wet hair was blown casually by the evening breeze, and only at this time could I feel a rare sense of coolness.

Taking advantage of the time to relax, Yincheng concentrated and called up the system panel.
