My fiancée Yukino

Luo Bai shrugged, admitting that he still couldn't understand what was going on, and of course, he was too lazy to try.

"Anyway, Nangong Nayue has already taken care of things over there, so Tokyo should be able to stay peaceful for a while. By the way, Dad, Mom, if you encounter any problems that you can't solve when you go to Tokyo, just tell me, and I'll ask Nangong Nayue for help."

Mr. Luo nodded happily at the prospect of his son gaining such connections.

"Okay, I understand. I'll let you know if anything happens."

Just then, Shiyu returned.

After sitting down, she awkwardly pulled on Luo Bai's arm and said, "Luo Jun, can you come back with me tomorrow?"

Luo Bai smiled and nodded: "Okay, are you going to submit it?"

"Yes, Eriri is practically ready to come and get me."

Utaha felt very apologetic towards Eriri for what happened, so she readily agreed to submit the manuscript the next day and treat her to another meal.

Volume 1: Chapter 289 Hoshino Ai Returns (1/2)

Half an hour later, the apartment doorbell rang.

Luo Bai went to open the door and saw Hoshino Ai standing there, looking rather unhappy.

"You're back? Come in."

Luo Bai patted Hoshino Ai's head and then led her into the house.

Hoshino Ai was indeed in a bad mood at the moment. After all, she was having a happy trip, but as soon as she came back, she heard about Kamiki Hikaru. She almost became the target of the other party. Fortunately, Luo Bai was there and resolved the matter directly.

However, the presence of a mole within her own team made Hoshino Ai even more uncomfortable. After returning to the company and learning about this, her manager comforted her for a long time.

Although it won't have a major impact on Hoshino Ai's future work, it will still make her feel bad.

Upon entering, Luo's mother, who had been tinkering in the kitchen for only a few minutes, heard what was happening and immediately wiped her hands before coming out. She then saw Hoshino Ai standing next to Luo Bai.

"This child must be Hoshino Ai, she's so beautiful," Luo's mother said happily. "Hello, I'm Luo Bai's mother."

Hoshino Ai quickly composed herself and politely said, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Hoshino Ai."

"Hello, hello, come in quickly, everyone is drinking mung bean soup. You must be hot after coming back from outside, have some to cool down."

Then, taking Hoshino Ai's hand, he walked towards the living room.

"Xiaobai, could you help me with this in the kitchen?"

Watching his mother take Hoshino Ai away, Luo Bai shrugged helplessly and turned to walk into the kitchen.

In the living room, Hoshino Ai was greeted with a warm welcome from Mrs. Raku as soon as she returned.

At first, Luo's mother just thought the child was quite cute, but after hearing Luo Bai tell her about Hoshino Ai's childhood experiences before Hoshino Ai returned, she felt extremely sorry for her.

So when Hoshino Ai returned, Luo's mother was very enthusiastic.

At first, Hoshino Ai was quite unaccustomed to it, after all, they were not the same age, she rarely had the experience of getting along with elders, not to mention she had such a past.

However, after a while, Hoshino Ai felt the love and care that Raku's parents had for her, and gradually relaxed.

Luo Bai came out of the kitchen for a moment, glanced at the living room, and was relieved to see that his mother and Hoshino Ai were having a good chat.

After working in the kitchen for about half an hour, Luo's mother came in.

"Alright, I'll take care of the rest. Xiaobai, you'll be my assistant."

"Okay, Mom, you can do it then."

Luo Bai readily gave his seat to his mother, while he assisted her from the side.

Ten minutes later, just as he finished cooking a dish, Luo Bai heard the kitchen door open. He turned around and saw Elma popping her head out, drooling.

Luo Bai smiled and said, "What, are you craving it?"

Erma nodded shyly: "Yes, I can smell the fragrance."

It is. ”

Mother Luo wiped her hands and then let Elma in: "Come on, try it and see how it tastes."

After saying that, he took out a small bowl and served Elma some stir-fried beef short ribs.

Looking at the two short ribs in the bowl, Eruma took a deep breath, happily picked up her chopsticks, and said, "Then I won't be polite! Mmm! Delicious!"

After taking a bite of beef, Eruma squinted her eyes in satisfaction and kept stomping her feet on the spot.

Mrs. Luo smiled and said, "As long as it tastes good, that's fine. I took your tastes into account, so I didn't make it too spicy. I think the spiciness level is about right?"

"Mmm! This level of spiciness is just right, it's my preferred level!"

Eruma nodded, quickly ate both short ribs, and then used water magic to wash the bowl and chopsticks clean.

Mrs. Luo took back the bowls and chopsticks and asked with a smile, "Would you like to try something else? The soup is almost ready."

Eruma patted her stomach, swallowed hard, and said, "No, I'll wait until it opens to eat. I want to keep the anticipation alive! I'll head out now!"

After Elma left, Luo's mother and Luo Bai continued preparing dinner.

As she poured oil into the pan and heated it, Mama Luo said with a smile, "This Elma is really greedy. Do dragons like to eat this much?"

“She’s just a special case; the others aren’t this extreme,” Luo Bai said, shaking his head. “In that world, Elma has always been in contact with humans, helping to mediate wars between them and helping them bring rain, all in exchange for offerings from humans, which are various kinds of food. She’s always loved good food; otherwise, she wouldn’t have approached humans.”

"I see, that's really special."

After talking about Elma, Mrs. Rascal also brought up the matter of Ai Hoshino.

"Has Xiao Ai's mother never come to see her again?"

Luo Bai chopped the vegetables and plated them, then said, "No, I also asked Nangong Nayue. After she was released from prison, she left Tokyo and left Xiao Ai in an orphanage. Later, after Xiao Ai debuted, she did want to come back to Tokyo, the purpose of which was self-evident. However, by then Xiao Ai had already signed with Nangong Nayue's company, and Nangong Nayue sent someone to warn her, so she didn't dare to come to Tokyo. Nangong Nayue has protected Xiao Ai very well. Xiao Ai doesn't have any good feelings towards her biological mother and has never thought about living with her again."

"That's good. This child has really worked hard, but she's also lucky to have met a good boss and now she's a big star. By the way, she'll still be going to high school next year, right?"

"Yes, Ai said she has decided to attend Soubu High School. She will become our junior next April and enroll with Kanao."

"That's good."

Mrs. Luo nodded with relief, "Although she is quite famous now, she can't neglect her education. Many idols and singers these days haven't studied for long and haven't learned many things before they start making money. As a result, they become arrogant and it's really not good. Having a solid foundation is fundamental. Mai has done a very good job in this regard, and her grades have always been excellent."

Luo's mother has always been very satisfied with Mai, especially after learning that Mai will also be taking the entrance exam for Tokyo University next year.

She has always liked studious children.

When the topic of Mai taking the college entrance exam next year came up, Luo's mother said, "That means Mai will basically be living in Tokyo next year, right? How will you solve the problem of where to live? I wonder if the villa we arranged for you will be completed by April."

As for whether Mai can get into Tokyo University, Luo's mother is not worried at all; she's absolutely certain she can.

Volume 1: Chapter 290 Arrangement (2/2)

At 5:30, dinner was all ready, and everyone sat down together to begin today's feast.

Looking at the table full of food, Eruma, being a foodie, couldn't hold back any longer. Her eyes were wide open from the moment the first dish was served.

After pouring drinks for everyone, Luo Bai smiled and looked at Elma's expression, saying, "Alright, everyone must be hungry, so let's eat! Cheers!"

"cheers!!!"

After taking a sip of cola, Eruma immediately picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it in her mouth.

"Mmm!! It's sweet and sour, so delicious!"

Spitting out the bone from her mouth, Elma exclaimed in amazement, "Auntie's cooking is amazing! It's even better than the food at that restaurant at noon!"

Hearing Eruma's praise, Mrs. Luo was very happy and kept putting a lot of food on Eruma's plate.

"Eat more if you like!"

"Uh-huh!"

Eruma, of course, accepted everything offered and happily began to eat.

Not only Erma, but Hoshino Ai also had a lot of food piled up by Ra's mother.

Looking at her bowl overflowing with various kinds of meat, Hoshino Ai said to Luo's mother, "Auntie, this is too much, we can't finish it..."

"How could we not finish it?"

Luo's mother said with a disbelieving look, "You're still growing, so you need to eat more. Don't diet because of any company requirements. You need to eat more so you have the energy to practice dancing and singing, understand?"

Hoshino Ai shrank back and could only agree, then began to devour the food in her bowl.

However, after a few bites, Hoshino Ai forgot all about her figure and everything else because the taste was just too good.

Seeing the child happily eating, Luo's mother nodded in satisfaction, and then continued to serve food to Yukino and the others one by one.

As a result, no one was spared; everyone ended up eating until they were stuffed.

After dinner, Luo Bai brewed tea for everyone, and they sat down together to drink tea and chat.

Luo Bai said to Yukino, "I'll go to Tokyo with Shiyu after breakfast tomorrow. If all goes well, we should be back before dinner."

Yukino nodded: "Okay, you guys go ahead. When the results are out, remember to let us know as soon as possible."

Shiyu also said confidently, "Absolutely no problem! When I contacted Eriri this afternoon, she didn't want to submit the manuscript alone because I've been away these past few days, so she simply drew three more chapters. I'll take a look at them when we meet tomorrow, and if there are no problems, we'll submit them together."

Like Shiyu, Luo Bai was full of confidence in Eriri's Demon Slayer manga.

I saw the original manuscript once before, and the art style was excellent. As long as the editor I meet tomorrow isn't blind, it will definitely be selected smoothly.

Luo Bai also began planning his itinerary for tomorrow.

"Yeah, I'm going to Tokyo this morning to meet your junior, we'll look at her new manga together, then have lunch together, and in the afternoon I'm going to Jump to meet my editor. As for dinner, Shiha, have you made plans with her for dinner?"

"Dinner hasn't come yet," Shi Yu said, shaking her head. "But I already told her I'd treat her to lunch, as an apology."

"Okay, then we'll talk about dinner arrangements tomorrow. Also, Yukino, our trip to your house tomorrow will have to be postponed by one day; let's do it the day after tomorrow."

Yukino nodded and said, "I understand. I've already talked to Mom. It'll be fine the day after tomorrow."

Yang Nai stretched happily and said, "Hehe, I can go back a day later. My mother will definitely assign me work again when I get back, so I'll just rest for another day~~"

Mai smiled and ate a piece of watermelon: "Yono-neechan, next..."

"We're about to get busy!"

“Yeah, we’re going to get busy.” Yang Nai puffed out her cheeks, then skipped over Yukino who was sitting in the middle and pounced on Luo Bai.

"Xiaobai~~ Can you make me a bento box when I go to work?"

Touching Yang Nai's cheek as she leaned closer, Luo Bai smiled and nodded, "Okay, I got it. I'll make you a bento box later."

"Great!!!"

Yang Nai's cheers also made Luo's parents smile.

Around 8 PM, everyone went back to shower and rest. Elma was the last to leave, and holding her phone, she said, "Luo-jun, when can I go see the Guardians here?"

After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai said, "There's no need to rush. Take a few days to familiarize yourself with the area, wander around, and then go find Ren and have her take you there."

"Yeah! I know!"

Eruma said happily, "Perfect timing! I was planning to check out the shopping street you mentioned this afternoon tomorrow. It seems like they sell lots of delicious food there!"

Yukino, holding the cat in her arms, said, "There are several snack shops over there. Some sell takoyaki, some sell crepes, and two butcher shops also make their own croquettes. There's also a coffee shop where the owner makes all the cakes himself, and they're really delicious."

If they don't need to buy many ingredients, Yukino and Rakuhaku will choose to go to the shopping street to buy them. It has everything they need, and the prices are about the same.

Over time, they got to know some of the merchants in the shopping street.

Seeing that Erma wanted to go there, Yukino said, "Let's go together tomorrow. We also need to buy some fruit and some seasonings."

"Okay, okay, let's go together!"

They quickly arranged their activities for the next day.

"I'm going back now~~ Goodnight~~"

After making the appointment, Eruma happily left to return to her new home.

Luo Bai ate the last piece of watermelon that Shi Yu had fed him, then looked at the three girls and said, "It's about time, time to take a shower. Who wants to shower first?"

"I'll wash it first!"

Yang Nai was the first to raise her hand and say, "Xiao Bai, want to come along?"

Luo Bai shook his head and said, "Let's skip it in the summer. I don't take baths much anyway. Let's wait until it gets cold."

"Okay, I'm going to take a shower now."
