Tokyo: Starting with a fake boyfriend

Upon seeing this, Minami Yamabuki was immediately taken aback.

She and her mother had been struggling with this big box for a while, unable to move it at all. She wouldn't have thought of asking Xiu Jun for help if she hadn't been desperate.

Originally, Mom planned to disassemble the boxes and move them in several batches, but she didn't want Xiu Jun to wait too long, and besides, there was Xiu Jun, a grown man, at home.

"Shiratori-kun, you're amazing!"

Seeing this, Yamabuki was also taken aback.

Although she knew there was a big difference in strength between men and women, this was just too much!

"The weight is manageable, I'll just carry it out."

Seeing the mother and daughter's surprise, Shiratori felt a surge of secret pleasure and couldn't help but hum inwardly, feeling that his help had been worthwhile. He then carried the load out.

Actually, the box was quite heavy, but his body was too strong.

After all, the nickname "Tiger of Martial Arts" wasn't something he called himself; it was something he earned through sheer hard-fought battles during his two and a half years of high school.

"Clap clap clap... Xiu Jun, as expected of you, you're so handsome."

Seeing him turn around and walk out of the dressing room with the box, Minami Yamabuki followed with shining eyes and couldn't help but applaud and admire him.

As expected of the omnipotent Xiu Jun, not only is he exceptionally intelligent, but he is also very skilled in fighting and incredibly strong. It was definitely the right decision to ask him for help.

"That's amazing."

Yamabuki followed behind, watching Shiratori Osamu's tall and imposing figure. Although she was also deeply moved, she was an adult and couldn't fully express her feelings like her daughter. She simply gave a soft compliment.

Hearing their praise, Shiratori Shu walked away without turning his head, but he was in a very good mood.

I have to say, Japanese women really know how to provide emotional value.

Although he was often praised before, for example, when he won a fight against delinquents from other schools, the hot girls would always surround him and shower him with praise, especially Yuki.

However, being praised by both my mother-in-law and Minami Yamabuki is a different feeling, since both of them are gentle and beautiful young ladies from well-to-do families.

Starting from the coat rack, Shiratori Osamu walked through his mother-in-law's bedroom, living room, and entryway before finally arriving at the storage room.

Although he already knew, this house is damn big.

"call……"

Finally arriving at their destination, Shiratori put down the storage box, let out a long sigh of relief, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his arm.

Actually, he wasn't tired at all because he was in a "last-ditch counterattack" mindset, ignoring fatigue. However, in order to exert more force, breathing rhythm was very important.

"Xiu Jun, you are really, really amazing! You are so handsome!"

Seeing him move it over in one go, Minami Yamabuki was truly amazed and couldn't stop praising him.

Because she and her mother had tried it, she knew exactly how heavy the box was, so she could better appreciate just how strong Shiratori Osamu was—it was simply unbelievable.

"Shiratori-kun, you've had a hard time. Have some water."

Meanwhile, Yamabuki, who had left the scene for a while, handed a water glass with a straw to Shiratori Osamu.

"Thank you."

Seeing her thoughtful and meticulous help, Shiratori felt a warmth in his heart, thanked her, and accepted the gift.

She's such a caring older sister!

"I should be thanking you; you're so reliable."

Finally, she was happy that she had helped him. Then, seeing that he was covered in sweat, she handed him the white dry towel in her left hand.

She was anxiously watching from behind, wanting to help but not knowing where to start, worried that she would only make things worse. Finally, she thought that Shiratori-kun might be tired and thirsty, so she left halfway through.

"Thank you."

After taking the towel, Shiratori thanked him again and wiped the sweat from his brow.

A desperate comeback simply ignores fatigue and pain, while sweating is a bodily mechanism for dissipating heat and maintaining body temperature. Just as someone would feel thirsty if they didn't drink water for a long time, high-intensity exercise will definitely cause sweating.

"You're welcome. It's what I should do. Luckily you were here, otherwise Xiao Nan and I wouldn't know what to do."

Yamabuki was genuinely happy to see him wiping his sweat after drinking the water.

"Xiujun, you must be exhausted. Sit down and rest for a bit."

At the same time, Minami Yamabuki carried a chair over and placed it behind Osamu Shiratori.

She noticed her mother handing her water and immediately realized what was happening, running to find something.

"Xiao Nan, thank you."

Seeing this, Shiratori Osamu sat down while wiping his sweat with a towel.

One brought him water and towels, the other moved a chair; he was somewhat overwhelmed by their attentive care.

These two are truly mother and daughter; because of their delicate and gentle nature, they are very considerate and give people a sense of maternal healing.

"You're welcome... Xiu Jun, how come you're so strong?"

Seeing that she had been helpful, Minami Yamabuki was pleased, and then became curious.

"Yeah, your stamina is amazing."

Yamabuki also found this unbelievable.

She and her daughter had experienced firsthand how heavy this enormous storage box was, but Shiratori-kun simply carried it all the way from the walk-in closet.

Let alone such a heavy storage box, even something weighing dozens of kilograms would be exhausting for her to carry over.

"I exercise regularly."

Shiratori Shu couldn't very well say he had a cheat code, so he could only say...

Don't let his current awesomeness fool you; he can already foresee the consequences of shutting down his comeback when he's resting at night.

Hopefully, he won't suffer a ligament strain, as he still needs to study.

Do you work out?

Upon hearing this, Minami Yamabuki and Yuki Yamabuki exchanged a glance, and then their gazes fell on Osamu Shiratori.

His arms, exposed by the summer short-sleeved school uniform, were long and thick, with clearly defined muscles. His white shirt, soaked with sweat, clung to his body, and the outlines of his abdominal and pectoral muscles could be vaguely seen through the clothes.

"Shu-kun's physique is amazing!" Yamabuki Minami had been so focused on his handsome face that this was the first time she had noticed his physique. She glanced at him a few times and then looked away, her heart racing.

"Shiratori-kun is truly a hidden talent." Yamabuki noticed that he actually had pectoral and abdominal muscles, and after stealing a few glances, she looked away, blushing slightly.

"Are they peeking at my abs?" Although they were being careful with their glances, Shiratori Shu, maintaining his focus and enhanced observation skills, still managed to notice.

Upon noticing this, he was momentarily at a loss for words and could only pretend not to notice.

Exposing the truth at this time would be bad for everyone.

Because he had been in a relationship in his previous life, and it wasn't with Xiao Chunan, he understood girls' little thoughts quite well.

It's often said that men are lustful, but actually women are even more so, they just don't show it easily.

Moreover, given the current situation, it's impossible to say he's not enjoying it.

After all, he had two beautiful women, one older and one younger, surrounding him, showering him with compliments, providing emotional support, and taking good care of him.

Although he didn't actually have two women on his left and one on his right, he still managed to enjoy a small taste of the bliss of having multiple wives.

"It's 18:41 PM. You must be hungry. I'll go make dinner."

After sneaking peeks at her daughter for a while, Yamabuki felt that this couldn't go on, so she took out her phone to check the time and then made an excuse to leave.

"Xiujun, you rest for a while. I'll go check if there's anything else I haven't packed."

After his mother left, Minami Yamabuki felt guilty for spying on him earlier and also planned to find an excuse to run away.

"Class monitor."

However, Shiratori could let his mother-in-law go, but he couldn't let her go, so he called out to her.

"Yes."

Upon hearing her name, Minami Yamabuki, who had just turned around to walk away, suddenly froze in shock.

But the next moment, she sensed that something was wrong.

What did Xiu Jun call her just now? Class monitor? Was he the class monitor?

Why did he call her that? Didn't we agree that when we were at her house, he should call her Xiao Nan?

Noticing the subtle difference in how he addressed her, Minami Yamabuki turned around and looked at him with some surprise.

"Stay here, I have something to talk to you about alone."

Shiratori Osamu remained seated in his chair, meeting her gaze with a calm tone.

Although he enjoyed the feeling of having two women, he didn't want to linger. All good things must come to an end, and it was time to bring this fake boyfriend act to a satisfactory conclusion.

Chapter 91 Night Raid

Minami Yamabuki had been really looking forward to talking to Shu-kun, but at this moment, she was incredibly nervous.

Perhaps this scene looks a bit like a confession scene.

But she knew that wasn't the case, because Xiu Jun's gaze towards her had changed; it had lost its former warmth and was replaced by calm.

That look in her eyes felt very unfamiliar, as if an invisible and intangible wall had suddenly appeared between them, yet it was a real wall.

Xiu Jun looks so serious, what's going on? What does he want to talk about?

"My mission is complete."

Shiratori Osamu could tell she was nervous, after all, she was too easy to understand, but he still got straight to the point.

He had been thinking for a long time about how to say goodbye, and decided it would be better to say it in person.

"Have you completed your mission?"

Upon hearing this topic, Minami Yamabuki's heart skipped a beat, and her expression froze on the spot.

"That's right, the fake boyfriend act should end."

Shiratori nodded slightly, offering her another conclusion.

No.

"But Mom and Dad haven't divorced yet."

This conclusion is simply alarmist. Yamabuki Minami shook her head slightly, her pretty face pale and her voice low and hoarse.

"The divorce agreement has been signed. I'll go to the government office tomorrow to submit it, and that will officially mark the divorce."

Shiratori Osamu had already guessed this.

After the couple read the agreement and signed it together, they were already effectively divorced; only the final procedural step remained.

No, no.

"But aren't we supposed to stop them from remarrying?"

Seeing him speak with a blank expression, Minami Yamabuki's pupils contracted, and her breathing became short and rapid.

Yes, she almost forgot about it... The reason she assumed Xiu Jun would stay at her house after seeing her father leave was because of this request.

Even after the divorce, Xiujun still wants to work with her to prevent her mother and father from remarrying.

“That’s true, but in my opinion, we no longer need to stop this, because your mother has completely given up on that man.”

Shiratori Osamu did not deny this statement, but simply expressed his own opinion.

In fact, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this request was a huge trap.

Unlike divorce, which has a procedural outcome, it is very difficult to prevent someone from remarrying.

After all, Old Deng is a living person. As long as he is alive, even if you try to stop him many times, he might still want to remarry, no matter how small the probability is.

Unless he finds a way to eliminate the problem completely and make Old Deng's fate unknown.

No, no, no!

"But just because Mom has given up doesn't mean Dad has given up completely... He might regret it in a few days, or even tomorrow. After all, Mom is such a good person, and his personality is unpredictable and ever-changing."

Minami Yamabuki was making sounds of resistance with her whole being, and she even felt a stinging pain on her skin. She didn't want to see him leave at all, and could only rack her brains to think of a way, shaking her head frantically.

Mom and Dad got divorced so quickly, and Mom has completely given up on Dad. There's no chance they'll remarry. Mission accomplished.
