"There are so many people. I didn't expect there would be traffic jams on a Monday. I didn't think we were in the evening rush hour..."
Bai Ye took off his helmet and got out of the car first.
"Let's buy some food before we go back. We have to pick up other people's leftovers when we get home. Let's go, Xiaohui."
Kato Megumi nodded and took off her helmet.
"I thought Bai Ye-kun wanted to have dinner here."
"Do I look like someone who doesn't know how to save money?" Bai Ye's expression turned serious, and he raised his finger. "Also, I won't give you, Xiaohui, the chance to plot against me today!"
"Hmm? If I tell the truth, will Bai Ye-kun be angry too?"
“They all said it was choreographed.”
Kato Megumi didn't say she would take her home, which meant she wanted to have dinner together.
Eating out together is not as intimate as cooking together at home.
and……
Bai Ye looked at the bag on Kato Megumi's shoulder.
One was for sweet tea, and the other remains unopened.

Chapter 388: Kato Megumi wants to stay overnight? !
The bright lights and wine are fascinating, but the simple food and drink reveal a person’s true character.
This was Bai Ye’s first time in this supermarket. After entering, he looked around like a curious baby.
"Huh, there are quite a few people here. Xiaohui, the fresh produce section is over there. Push a shopping cart, gogogo!"
"Oh oh."
Kato Megumi whispered apologies to those around her and squeezed through the crowd under Bai Ye's protection.
The fresh food area is empty, like another world.
The girl with nothing patted her clothes, looked back, handed the shopping cart to Bai Ye, and put her little hand into Bai Ye's arms.
“There are so few people here…”
"That's the prepared food area. Now that the first evening rush hour has passed, it's time for those who get off work overtime to go home."
"I see...Bai Ye-kun knows it very well."
"normal."
Bai Ye shrugged and lingered among the crowd behind him for a while, his eyes filled with nostalgia.
"Last summer, I was also busy running around all day long. I was so tired that when I got home, I didn't even want to talk, let alone cook."
"Like today? You've worked hard." Kato Megumi tightened her arms, a soothing smile on her lips, "Bai Ye-kun, whatever you want to eat tonight is fine~"
"Isn't this what I usually say?" Bai Ye scratched his head.
"Let me say this for once, it's okay."
……
After buying the ingredients for dinner and getting through the second evening rush hour, Bai Ye and his friend set out on their journey home again.
The moon rises above the branches and the light at the door turns on.
Kato Megumi put her bag on Bai Ye's bed, then went to the kitchen and put on an apron before Bai Ye.
The apron was spotlessly white, not a single taint of the orange light.
Bai Ye threw the wet thin coat into the laundry basket, poured two glasses of water, drank one in one gulp, and handed the other to Kato Megumi.
"Xiaohui, do you want to cook together?"
"No, it's just a meal for two people, I can cook by myself." Kato Megumi put the saury she bought into the sink while turning on the rice cooker and preparing to measure the rice. "Just leave the water there. Bai Ye-kun, take a shower first. The meal will probably be ready after you're done."
Is this the white rose?
You can go to the hall, and you can go to the kitchen.
Will I be raised as a useless person in the future?
Bai Ye suddenly didn't know how to express his gratitude. He wanted to hug Kato Megumi, but it was not appropriate because he was covered in sweat.
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Xiaohui~"
Bai Ye carried clean clothes into the bathroom, turned on the shower head, and let the hot water pour over his head.
It was expected that Kato Megumi would stay for dinner tonight, and even if she didn't say anything, she would have invited her.
However, the current situation is somewhat special.
Generally speaking, if Bai Ye is alone with Kato Megumi, he will not mention girls other than Kato Megumi, or sensitive matters related to them, unless absolutely necessary, so as not to ruin the atmosphere.
"We need to tell Icy Tail about the Yu Pen Lan Festival tonight, and we also need to test Auntie's opinion. If Mr. Tanaka is a favor from Auntie, we need to express our gratitude."
To contact Icy tail is equivalent to contacting Bingtang. To contact her aunt, there is no way to bypass Eriri, and Kato Megumi will definitely pass by behind her as if nothing happened.
If I suddenly get high chatting with Bingtang and Yinglili, the consequences...
Bai Ye shuddered and quickly turned up the water temperature.
"Let's take it one step at a time. Maybe Xiaohui will go home after dinner."
The bathroom door opened, and the fragrant smell of food instantly dispelled the thick fog, and also aroused Bai Ye's appetite, and he floated to the kitchen.
"It smells so good—what delicious food is Xiaohui making~"
"Bai Ye-jun, are you starving? We only bought saury, tofu, clams, and..."
Kato Megumi stretched out a slender finger and pressed it against Bai Ye's chest to stop his hug.
"Xiaohui dislikes me?" Bai Ye said with a sad face.
"I'm sweating a lot too. If Bai Yejun hugs me now, he wants to get his hands on my sweat..."
"No, although I am a taste control, I am far from the Hentai you imagined, Xiaohui." Bai Ye declared solemnly.
"Well... although this is one of my points, what I want to say more is that if Bai Ye-kun gets sweaty again, he might use it as an excuse to do something like bathing together. I have to take precautions first."
"Don't treat me like a starving hentai! ノ???Д`?)ノ彡┻━┻"
"Is that so?" Kato Hui was unmoved. "It seems that Bai Yejun's CD has not been turned on yet. I feel relieved."
white night"……"
Is this a hint that I ate Eriri last night?
At this time, Kato Megumi took off her apron, turned around and hung it around Bai Ye's neck, then pulled up the hem of her clothes to cover her accidentally exposed belly button, while scratching her hair that was covered with sweat and dust.
"Can you leave the rest of the cooking to Bai Ye-kun? The saury will be ready in 5 minutes. The ingredients for the clams are ready. Just add the butter and sake before serving."
"Steamed clams in wine?"
"Yeah, I just rummaged through Bai Yejun's cupboard and found this bottle of wine. Maybe it's called baijiu in China. I happened to have butter in the refrigerator, so I thought of making steamed clams with wine."
Bai Ye drinks but he doesn't like it. The liquor in front of him was sent from China during the New Year this year, and it was a high-proof liquor.
"I was originally going to give them to those old alcoholic customers this New Year. There's actually a bottle left. I would have forgotten about it if you hadn't dug it out, Xiaohui. But cooking wine is different from regular liquor."
Kato Megumi has walked out of the kitchen and into the living room.
"Really? I don't really understand this, but I can smell the aroma of sake through the bottle. It's very similar to the sake Dad drinks. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to make sake steamed clams?"
"It doesn't matter. They're all similar wines. It's just sitting there anyway, so just use it."
Bai Ye put down the bottle of white wine and turned around to see Kato Megumi opening a bag that had never been opened before, taking out a set of clean clothes from it, then opening the wardrobe and taking out a set of underwear left behind two weeks ago.
Bai Ye had no expression on his face.
"Okay, I've brought my clothes too. Are you sure you want to stay overnight?"
Bai Ye is not the type of person who will sit and wait for death. Now is a good opportunity to regain the initiative.
"I feel like your plans, Xiaohui, are much richer than mine."
"No, it's just that Byakuya-kun arranged a lot of work for me. Also, I can bring back the underwear I left behind. I think Kasumigaoka-senpai will be very happy. I wonder what Byakuya-kun will think?"
"For a gentleman, it's a mixture of pain and joy." Bai Ye answered without hesitation.
"I think it's okay, since Kasumigaoka-senpai still has a lot left."
Kato Megumi came up to him, reached out to smooth out the crooked apron neckline, and her expression was like a wife tying her husband's tie before going out to work and telling him to come home early.
"Leave the wine-steamed clams and setting the table to Bai Ye-kun. My shower will take about half an hour, so I might not be able to make it in time."
"No, no problem." Bai Ye's face paused.
Does that mean I only have half an hour to contact Bingtang and Yinglili?

Thanks to [Dian Niang I Hate You] for the 3 spicy strips, thank you very much!
Chapter 389: A virtuous woman like Kato Megumi will never give in in love!
Bai Ye knew that Kato Megumi knew that he would definitely contact Bingtang and Yinglili today, so she mentioned unnecessary words like "It will take me half an hour to take a shower."
"Even though I used work as a shield, it was obvious that I was contacting Bingtang and Yinglili. Especially since I announced my harem yesterday, it's great that Xiaohui gave me the hint to allow the call."
Think clearly and make the call first.
Bai Ye joined Icy tail's chat group, but when he looked at the group chat, he didn't press his finger to enter the message. Instead, he opened Bingtang's private chat and paused on the button for the video call.
Xiaohui is at home, and choosing to video call Bingtang is undoubtedly a very common choice at the moment.
But we can't just consider Xiaohui's mood. Regarding the incident of eating Yinglili yesterday, Bai Ye didn't believe that Bingtang didn't see something, but the other party was good at hiding his emotions under a smile.
"Normally, if there's something to notify Bingtang, we'll use a video call. If we suddenly use text messages today, Bingtang will inevitably overthink it."
"If Bingtang sends me a video invitation, wouldn't it seem like I'm being evasive if I don't accept it?"
"Forget it, it's useless to waste time on meaningless thinking."
Bai Ye sent a video call and the other party answered it after a while.
Bingtang appeared on the screen with a towel wrapped around his neck and wet hair. His signature long sideburns on both ends were mixed in with his hair, making it difficult to distinguish him. It seemed that he had just come out of the bathroom.
"Aye, have you had dinner yet?"
"Get ready to eat, still cooking." Bai Ye pointed the camera at the kitchen. Kato Megumi's bag was in the living room.
"It's so late, haven't you eaten yet?"
"No, I was busy in the warehouse all day and just got home."
Bingtang grinned and leaned his head forward, as if he wanted to walk out of the screen. His energetic smile seemed to dispel Bai Ye's fatigue of the day.
"I see, you've worked hard, Aye! Just like Sawamura-kun said yesterday, eat more and eat your fill!"
Sawamura-san, yesterday, you ate more...
Bai Ye's mouth twitched and he quickly nodded in agreement.
"Could this be a hint from Bingtang..."
After chatting for another 10 minutes, there were only 5 minutes left for the planned call with Bingtang, so Bai Ye quickly got the topic back on track.
"By the way, Bingtang, I helped Icy tail find a performance today."
"Really?!" Bingtang was overjoyed.
"I'm still discussing the specific details, but it's confirmed to be a program related to the Yu Pen Lan Festival. Bingtang, you can prepare it in advance. The songs you choose should be more popular and not too restrictive to young people and otakus."
"Yeah, let's meet tomorrow to discuss the details?" Bingtang's eyes were full of anticipation.
Let's meet tomorrow...
Bai Ye hesitated.
If Mr. Tanaka is doing Sayuri Sawamura a favor, then I will definitely go to his house to thank him tomorrow and I will definitely have to accompany Eriri.
In this way, I may not have time to meet Bingtang for a date.
"Sorry, Bingtang, I have something to do tomorrow and may not be able to meet you."
