Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

Tomoko Matsumoto was also covering her mouth and laughing. Looking at these children quarreling and making noises, she seemed to become younger herself.

"Okay, then it's decided. When Sachiko comes back, we'll plan a perfect trip to the seaside."

The lady's joyful mood made her voice tone become higher.

"Good! Good!"

"Summer vacation, summer vacation, come soon?"

Chie Hoshino has already started humming a song excitedly, but it can be heard that it is an impromptu song she made up herself.

Chiaki Hoshino also rarely showed a shy smile.

Of course, Ginjo Sosuke was also infected by this atmosphere and began to feel yearning for it.

How long until summer vacation starts?

He has already started looking at the calendar or counting the days...

Chapter 97: Alone Time with Chiaki Hoshino

"Wow...I'm so full..."

Chie Hoshino leaned back in her chair, sliding her hand back and forth across her bulging belly.

"Sister Tomoko's dinner is so delicious. I love you so much, Sister Tomoko."

Chie Hoshino turned around and threw herself into Tomoko Matsumoto's broad arms, like a spoiled child.

"As long as you like it, Chie."

Tomoko Matsumoto stroked her hair with a smile.

When Ginjo Sosuke saw this scene, he suddenly felt like his private territory was being invaded.

"Sooner or later, you will be punished by me, Chie Hoshino."

He thought angrily in his heart.

"Thank you very much, Sister Tomoko, for hosting us."

Chiaki Hoshino also thanked the lady, but her way was much more subtle compared to her sister.

"Hey, have you hugged enough? If you have, come and clean up quickly."

Sosuke Ginjo stood up and prepared to help Tomoko Matsumoto clean up the mess after dinner.

"Hmph... I think Sosuke is jealous of me... Actually, you want to hug me too, right?"

Chie Hoshino finally pulled herself out of her wife's arms, and did not forget to make a face at Ginjo.

"It's just a hug, what's the big deal? I already..."

Ginjo Sousuke complained about her in his heart, then rolled his eyes at her and continued to work.

"Sousuke-kun, just leave it alone, I'll do it."

Tomoko Matsumoto stood up with the help of a cane and started to clean up the dishes.

"You should take a rest, Sister Tomoko. Your foot injury hasn't fully recovered yet, and you were busy in the kitchen just now. Leave it to me."

Ginjo took the chopsticks from her hand and placed them on the plate he had already stacked.

"Let me help too, Sousuke."

Chiaki Hoshino also quickly stood up to help clean up, because she felt a little guilty about not having the chance to participate in the cooking just now.

"Thank you, Chiaki. You can do the rest."

Ginjo turned back to the kitchen with a pile of plates, and Hoshino Chiaki followed him with the rest of the dishes.

"Come on, Qianqiu, I'm too full and can't move anymore!"

Because she had helped Matsumoto Tomoko with the cooking just now, Chie Hoshino now sat on a chair with an air of heroism, breathing heavily, as if she was still trying hard to digest the delicious food in her stomach.

In the small kitchen, Ginjo Sosuke and Hoshino Chiaki stood side by side in front of the sink, one was responsible for washing the dishes while the other was responsible for drying them.

Although the two people just met yesterday, they worked together very well.

"Um...Sousuke...Don't take my sister's words too seriously...She's just like that...She likes to joke around."

Chiaki Hoshino's gentle voice was covered by the sound of flowing water, and seemed a little hazy.

"Well, I know, I won't take it to heart, but you and your sister really have completely different personalities, Chiaki."

Ginjo Sousuke took the plate from her and started to wipe it.

"Well... everyone who knows us has said this... Don't be fooled by her carefree appearance... She is actually a very good sister."

"When we were young, we were bullied a lot because we lived under the care of others. My sister always protected me. It is because of her optimistic personality that we have come this far."

It was the first time that Ginjo Sousuke heard Hoshino Chiaki speak so seriously. He could feel that she really depended on her sister from the bottom of her heart.

I heard similar words from Matsumoto Tomoko yesterday, which changed Ginjo's impression of Chie Hoshino a lot.

"Actually, I can understand you because my parents died early and I grew up with my grandfather."

Ginjo couldn't help but recall the past as if he felt the same way.

"I see. No wonder I felt so close to Sosuke the first time I met him. Maybe it's because we have the same experience."

Chiaki Hoshino turned her head and looked at Ginjo quietly. At such a close distance, it was the first time she carefully observed this young man.

A tall and straight figure that I need to look up at, free but slightly messy short hair, and a pair of dark and deep eyes that seem to be able to see through me at a glance.

The straight nose bridge and lips of moderate thickness constitute a flawless profile, which looks like a pleasing work of art especially under the kitchen light.

At first glance, she has a healthy complexion that shows she exercises regularly, and her slender fingers are wiping the dishes...

Chiaki Hoshino couldn't help but think of her own sculpture, if she could create it in the image of Ginjo...

"Qianqiu, the water is about to flow out."

Ginjo Sosuke gently touched her elbow, and only then did she realize that water was still flowing from the pipe.

"Oh, sorry..."

Chiaki Hoshino quickly put down the dishes she had been washing several times and turned off the water.

"What are you thinking about, Chiaki? You look so absorbed in it."

Ginjo smiled as he looked at the cute girl who was a little flustered beside him.

"Nothing... nothing... just thinking about the sculpture..."

While Chiaki Hoshino lowered her head and spoke softly, she did not forget to secretly glance at Ginjō out of the corner of her eyes.

His smile is so gentle and sunny, as if it can light up the whole room...

There has never been such a male character in Chiaki Hoshino's life. Perhaps because of her sister's good protection and her own personality, she didn't have many opportunities to meet boys...

Now Ginjo Sosuke suddenly appeared in her life, like a refreshing evening breeze, bringing an indescribable sense of freshness...

"Hey, what are you two doing? Why are you so slow?"

Just when Chiaki Hoshino was still immersed in her own thoughts, Chie Hoshino suddenly appeared in the kitchen.

She leaned lightly against the wall, scanning the two people standing together with a radar-like gaze.

"The last plate, done."

Ginjo Sousuke raised the plate he had just polished and gestured to Hoshino Chie.

"Humph~ I thought you would take advantage of the fact that no one is around to reach out your evil claws to my poor sister who is not very worldly-wise."

Chie Hoshino came closer as she spoke.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Miss Chie."

Ginjo wiped the water off his hands on his T-shirt and spoke to her.

"That's right, I'm really disappointed. I told you that I would always be with my sister in everything. If Qianqiu keeps being like this, then I will also..."

Chie Hoshino said charmingly.

"Sister! Really, are you too excited today?"

Chiaki Hoshino had no choice but to walk over and stand between her sister and Ginjō.

"Haha, I'm excited because Sister Tomoko's dinner is so delicious. People will always feel good after enjoying delicious food."

Chiaki Hoshino could only helplessly pull her back to the living room.

Are you kidding me again? Sometimes jokes get taken too seriously, asshole!

Do I have to wait for my sister for everything?

If I continue to develop a relationship with my sister, will it be buy one get one free???

Chapter 98: Bedtime Material

After cleaning up the restaurant and kitchen, the clock on the wall just pointed to nine o'clock.

Sosuke Ginjo and the Hoshino sisters both had to go to school tomorrow, so they prepared to go back.

"Thank you for your hard work, cleaning it so clean."

Tomoko Matsumoto stood up with the help of a cane and prepared to see them off.

"Oh, Sister Tomoko, it's not hard. We should thank you for making such a delicious dinner."

Chie Hoshino hugged her wife's arm and said happily.

'She seemed to have been sitting on the sofa doing nothing?'

Ginjo Sousuke thought to himself, but considering that she did help a little before the meal, he stopped complaining about her.

After saying good night to Tomoko Matsumoto, the three of them went upstairs together.

"Good night, Sousuke."

Arriving at the door of Room 301, Chiaki Hoshino said softly.

"Goodnight, Chiaki. And goodnight to you, Chie."
