My Cartoonist Girlfriend

After getting up in the morning, Eriri took the initiative to stop the housework at home, and Asakura Feng, seeing her off, changed into thick clothes and went out to buy groceries. There was no other way, today I had to entertain friends, and they were not at home in the past few days, so I had to buy a lot.

"It's really cold these days."

Instead of wearing the extra-long scarf, she wore the ordinary one she used before. After getting off the train, Asakura Kaede shrank her neck and walked towards the large supermarket she was going to.

As he walked, he was also looking at the records on his mobile phone.

"There are a lot of things to buy. I still have some meat in stock at home, so I can buy less. Just some chicken wings and chicken thighs for grilling and frying. The rest are mainly vegetables, some seasonings, and finally snacks."

Seeing the densely packed list of snacks written by Ying Lili, Ying Lili felt a headache.

Although the snacks are not very heavy, once there are more things, there will be more bags and it will be inconvenient to carry them.

"Oh, I shouldn't have let Eriri stay at home alone. I should have dragged her out as well. She said she wanted to clean the house, but the house isn't dirty. I mopped the floor yesterday."

Passing by an electronics store, Asakura Feng looked at the billboard at the door, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but stop.

"Robot vacuum cleaner... Yeah, this one is good. If I buy this, Eriri will have no reason to stay at home."

However, even if I have an idea in mind, I won't buy it today. After all, I have a lot of things and this kind of appliance is really too much to carry.

After spending some time buying a lot of things, big and small, more than he had imagined, there was no choice but to call a taxi to make things easier for himself.

After returning to the apartment building, paying and getting off the car, Asakura Kaede saw Kitamura Yusaku who had arrived a few steps ahead of her.

"Happy New Year, Kitamura."

"Oh! Happy New Year, Asakura!" Kitamura greeted with a smile. Seeing that Asakura had so many things in his hands, he quickly helped to take two of them and shared the burden.

“There are a lot of things.”

"Thank you." After feeling a lot more relaxed, Asakura Feng said, "It's New Year, so let's have some fun together. So Eriri excitedly made a long list, many of which were snacks."

"Hahaha, this fits Sawamura's personality very well."

The two of them walked into the apartment building together while chatting about their lives over the past two days of the New Year.

When she opened the door, Asakura Feng found that some people had already arrived. They were a few girls, including Kasumigaoka Utaha, Usami Mizuki and Oosaka Taiga.

When they came in, several girls were surrounding Eriri, talking about something.

Seeing Asakura Kaede coming back, Eriri immediately said, "Kaede-kun, save me!!!"

Hearing Eriri's cry, Asakura Feng put his things away and asked with a smile: "What happened? Eriri, did you offend them?"

"No, it's this!"

As she spoke, Ying Lili raised her left hand, and the shining ring attracted the attention of several girls again.

After seeing this, Asakura Kaede also understood, it turned out that this was the reason.

Kitamura Yusaku also saw it at this time, and looked down at Asakura Kaede's left hand, which also had a ring on it.

"Oh ho~~"

Pushing his glasses, Kitamura Yusaku said with a smile, "It seems that a lot of things have happened in the past few days. Asakura, confess and I will give you leniency!"

Chapter 309: Unrivaled by Peers (1/2)

Although he knew that this matter would definitely be discovered, Asakura Feng did not expect that as soon as he came back from shopping, he would be noticed by several girls who had arrived earlier and started to surround Eriri.

Now seeing everyone's attention shifted to him, Asakura Feng scratched his head and could only say: "Well, wait a moment, there are still a few people who haven't arrived yet, let's talk about it together after they arrive."

Hearing what Asakura Kaede said, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who originally thought that the two of them had bought couple rings, raised her eyebrows and realized that things might be more interesting than she had imagined.

Therefore, everyone could only suppress their curiosity and wait while chatting and eating snacks.

However, Usami's eyes still fell on Eriri's hands from time to time.

After all, what girl wouldn't like a ring, right? Especially a beautiful one like the one Eriri wears.

After about half an hour, the remaining people who had not arrived, Subaru Uchimaki, the Minister, Ryuji Takasu, and Minori Kushieda, finally arrived one after another.

The last one to come in, Takasu Ryuji, put the snacks he made in the refrigerator in the kitchen. Seeing that everyone was sitting there in silence, he couldn't help but become curious: "You...what's going on?"

Then Kitamura Yusaku waved to Takasu Ryuji and said, "Takasu, come and sit over here. These two people have something to announce."

"Announce?"

Takasu Ryuji obviously didn't notice anything, so he could only come over and sit down, looking at Asakura Kaede and Eriri who were being stared at by everyone.

Faced with everyone's gazes, Eriri naturally would not be the first to speak. She pulled Asakura Kaede's arm and signaled him with her eyes.

"Okay, okay, I know. I'll tell you."

Shaking his head helplessly, Asakura Feng grabbed Eriri's hand, then raised his own left hand and showed the ring on his hand: "You want to ask this, right? We have to apologize for not informing you two days ago. As for the content of the matter, it is also very simple. Eriri and I were engaged the night before last."

"..."

The scene suddenly fell into silence, everyone's eyes were wide open, obviously digesting what Asakura Kaede had just said.

Finally, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had already made some guesses, was the first to react and said, "Engagement? The day before yesterday? Is it so fast?"

"Yes, yes!"

Usami also nodded repeatedly and said excitedly: "Why didn't you tell us everything? We didn't know about it until now!"

Ying Lili blushed and said awkwardly, "Actually, it wasn't Feng Jun and I who decided it. It was mainly because after we came back from praying for blessings on New Year's Day, our parents discussed that given the current situation, why not get engaged first? It just so happened that there was a banquet the next day with relatives and friends, so we did it this way. We discussed it in the morning and then went downstairs to pick out the ring."

"Yeah~~~engagement."

Pushing up his glasses, Kitamura Yusaku said with emotion: "Your progress is really unmatched by your peers. Some of you don't have a partner yet, and are even secretly in love, but you are already engaged. Amazing, amazing!"

Asakura Feng spread his hands and said with a smile: "It's a last-minute decision, but Eriri and I have no objection. As for notifying you, we actually thought about notifying you at short notice, but later gave up. After all, you will definitely be busy in the first two days, so we might as well wait until the party to decide."

Looking at the ring on Eriri's hand, Oosaka Taiga's eyes widened and he asked curiously, "Eri, do you wear this ring all the time? What will you do after school starts?"

As soon as Oosaka Taiga mentioned it, everyone reacted. Indeed, it was nothing before, after all, everyone in the school basically knew that Asakura Kaede and Eriri were dating. But now it was different. When this ring was worn, and it was on the left ring finger, it directly showed that the relationship between the two had made great progress.

Speaking of this issue, Eriri replied: "I have discussed this with Feng-kun, but you can't ask me not to wear this ring, so I just leave it alone. If no one asks about it, it's fine. If someone asks me, just say it directly."

Kasumigaoka Utaha stroked her chin and commented, "Well, you have become much more thick-skinned without realizing it."

"No way to race!!!"

In short, the engagement of Asakura Kaede and Eriri is a big happy event, and today we must celebrate it properly. It just so happens that Takasu Ryuji also brought homemade snacks, so we can prepare something more sumptuous.

Asakura Kaede asked a few boys to prepare lunch together, while the girls surrounded Eriri and asked about what happened during their engagement two days ago.

Kasumigaoka Utaha took out her little notebook and asked with shining eyes, "Tell me quickly, were you excited that night?"

"Well...it's really exciting."

Ying Lili blushed and said, "I was so nervous at first that I almost didn't know what to do, but luckily I got over it later. And that day was the first time I met Feng Jun's other relatives, and everyone was very nice to me."

"Oh ho~~~"

Kasumigaoka Utaha kept writing with the pen in her hand, muttering to herself, "It seems that after meeting the parents, I finally met other relatives and friends. Did I meet anyone my age?"

"There aren't any people of the same age. Feng Jun said those people are not in Kanto, so he didn't invite them. But I did meet a cousin who is older than Feng Jun. She brought her daughter with her. She's only two years old. She's super cute! I have a photo here. Let me show you!"

As she said that, Eriri took out her cell phone and showed everyone the photo of Asakura Kaede's little niece.

In the photo, the baby held in Eriri's arms has a round face and big eyes looking at the camera, looking very cute.

"Wow, so cute, just like a doll!"

Oosaka Taiga came closer and stared closely at the baby in the photo.

"Right, isn't it cute~~~" Ying Lili said proudly, "This child is very close to me. When I held him, he didn't cry or make a fuss, and he even smiled at me. On the contrary, he immediately struggled when Feng Jun held him, even though there was obviously no problem with the way I held him."

After hearing what Eriri said, Asakura Kaede, who was tinkering with beef not far away, looked over and said, "That's not my problem, okay? I held the child when he was just born, so he didn't have that problem. I guess he didn't recognize me because he hasn't seen me for a while."

"Huh, but it's the first time she sees me, why isn't she crying? That's the charm of personality, you know?"

After retorting to Asakura Kaede, Eriri showed everyone other photos of the engagement party.

Chapter 310: Big Progress Unexpectedly Discovered (2/2)

After a lively day of playing at home, there were finally no more activities to do during the New Year period. There was still some time before school started, so Asakura Kaede and Eriri planned to spend it leisurely.

Morning, eight o'clock.

Eriri, who was still sleeping soundly in the quilt, felt the movement of Asakura Kaede getting up beside her, and slowly opened her eyes.

"Wow... Feng-kun, what time is it?"

Asakura Feng got up, stretched his body, and put on his clothes, and said, "It's eight o'clock. We agreed to resume exercise today. Eriri, you didn't forget, did you? You've been relaxing for several days!"

"Ah... I have a headache when I wake up early. I have to sleep until ten o'clock to get up without any sequelae~~~"

As she spoke, Eriri even shrank into the bed, rolled up the quilt, and tried to act like a spoiled brat.

After changing his clothes, Asakura Feng turned around and saw that the girl still had no intention of getting up, so he shook his head helplessly.

"You, you know I won't let you go easily, why don't you get up?"

There was no response.

Scratching his head, Asakura Feng took a deep breath, and walked out of the bedroom directly. He didn't come back jogging until two minutes later.

Then, he reached his hands, which were blown by the cold wind, directly into the quilt and pressed them against Eriri's face.

"ah!!!!"

Stimulated by the sudden cold, Eriri woke up instantly, jumped out of the bed, and angrily looked at Asakura Kaede who was smiling slyly in front of her: "Kaede-kun!!!"

Asakura Feng ignored Eriri's anger, patted her head and said, "Good boy, it's time to get up. Didn't we agree to exercise and then go to the supermarket together?"

"..."

After being disturbed by Asakura Kaede, Eriri could only get out of bed reluctantly and start today's exercise with Asakura Kaede.

After being lazy for several days, she suddenly resumed exercising today. It was a little difficult for Ying Lili to adapt to, but fortunately the amount of exercise today was not too much and was still within an acceptable range.

After exercising, washing up and having breakfast, the two changed their clothes, put on the long scarf that attracted hatred, and went out.

"It's so cold... Am I out of my mind? I told you yesterday, Feng-jun, that we should go out together in the morning."

With her neck shrunk, Eriri hugged Asakura Kaede's arm tightly and said with a depressed look on her face.

Asakura Feng was used to this kind of temperature, and chuckled and said, "Now that you're out, don't say these things. Besides, school will start in a few days, you can't stay at home forever, right? It's better to adapt in advance."

"I know that, but I really don't like winter. Well... I don't like summer either!"

"Hahaha, air conditioning only exists now. If there were no air conditioning, how would you survive the winter and summer?"

"In the winter, I rely on kotatsu, and in the summer, I rely on cold drinks!"

As expected of you, Eriri.

The two of them bantered on various subjects, and Eriri slowly ignored the cold temperature as a smile returned to her face.

Arriving at the supermarket and pushing a shopping cart, Ying Lili looked at the list written down on her phone: "Well, the ingredients bought for the party two days ago were also used up yesterday. It's time to replenish them. Fengjun, shall we go buy the ingredients first?"

"Well, go check it out early, because all the good stuff has been picked up. Don't worry about snacks."

Taking over the task of pushing the cart, Asakura Feng said, "Let's go, don't you want to eat barbecue? Then you have to pick some good meat."

"Okay~~~~"

Arriving at the meat area, the two immediately started selecting the ingredients to be used today and tomorrow.

"Ah, there's wagyu beef! It's not sold out yet!"

Eriri immediately spotted the high-end Wagyu beef with a sign hanging over there and pulled Asakura Kaede over there.

As soon as they passed, they saw an acquaintance coming from the other side.

"Senior Shirogane?"

That's right, it's Baiyin Yuxing who I haven't seen for a while. Judging from Baiyin Yuxing's behavior, he should also be here to buy vegetables.

Shirogane Miyuki also saw Asakura Kaede and Eriri and greeted them with a smile: "Oh! It's you, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!" x2

He pushed the cart over and let Eriri choose the meat, while Asakura Kaede and Shirogane Miyuki started chatting.

"Senior, are you busy during the New Year?"

"Hahaha, it's not bad. I don't have to visit relatives, and I don't have to work. I can rest for a few days." Baiyin Yuxing said with a smile, "But you guys, I remember you just went on a trip to Hokkaido, right? You came out so early to buy groceries after you came back?"
