Chapter 68: Chapter 65: The Exiled Roast Meat
Upon hearing these words, Chiba Shimizu's eyes flashed with a peculiar emotion.
Haruka Yuzan, huh?
The soft lighting lazily spilled onto Madam's gentle face, revealing that Reiko Onodera was sincerely grateful and happy.
"My entire life has been a huge failure, without Haruka, it's really hard to imagine what future life would have become..."
The atmosphere had been set just right, and today Reiko Onodera also intended to talk a bit more about her own affairs...
"It's quite ridiculous how I came to Tokyo alone, thinking that even if I couldn't make a career for myself, at least improving the family environment should be no problem, but in the end..."
Her lips kept moving, but her hands never stopped working, putting away the washed dishes and utensils to one side, then started organizing the leftover ingredients from the meal she had just prepared.
Chiba Shimizu just quietly listened by her side, occasionally wiping the table clean, then helping out with the tidying up.
They looked like a mother and daughter having a heart-to-heart talk after dinner... if people from the school saw this scene in the kitchen, they'd be utterly shocked.
In school, being able to speak a word to Chiba Shimizu made one's day, but who would have thought that this aloof, reticent Gao Ling Zhi Hua would do house chores?
Such a pure and beautiful girl should be sitting beside the garden in the afternoon, lightly flipping through books, sipping a cup of hand-ground coffee from time to time, not here holding a rag, wiping the table.
Chiba Shimizu had never found doing household chores unpleasant, or rather, in the young lady's view, as long as there was meaning in it, she wouldn't complain about anything.
Clearly, helping Reiko Onodera felt like a meaningful thing for her at the moment.
Kindness, tenderness, proactivity...
These were the traits she currently saw in Reiko Onodera...
.....
"Do you know how much harm your method of turning on the device caused to an eighteen-year-old girl?"
The girl back in the living room pouted with her lips puffed out, muttering discontentedly, her small hand touching her chest where there seemed to be a lingering pain.
Just now, Haruka Yuzan, in order to wake the catatonic Misaki Saki from her chair, had slipped his large hand into her oversized T-shirt,
The girl only gave the boy a blank look and didn't react; after all, it wasn't the first time she'd been touched, and as a Doujinshi Artist, she had always had a strong adaptability in this regard.
She had even sacrificed herself for her work.
But then, with a "rip,"
Misaki Saki's eyes shot open, and she instantly lost her composure,
"Ow!"
She clutched her chest in pain, giving the boy a look that could kill.
A bandaid with a pink heart appeared in Haruka Yuzan's hands, "I thought you'd never wake up, hurry up and get to work, stop dawdling."
He pinched the bandaid, then returned it to the girl.
"I was recovering mana, don't you get it? Health and mana recovery!!!"
She snatched the item from the boy's hands with a somewhat reproachful look.
"Arrange the chairs properly."
.....
"Humph! You said that I could go back to my room after wiping the table."
Misaki Saki grumbled dissatisfiedly, and then her small hand reached into her T-shirt to reapply the bandaid to its original spot.
After being peeled off once, it had become a bit loose, and its stickiness was not as good...
"You, you're not trustworthy, and you don't know how to cherish a lady..."
Even though she said that, Misaki Saki dutifully pushed the chairs under the table, and for the sake of neatness, she even crouched down to check again, seriously engaged in her work.
"Talk less, do more work."
Haruka Yuzan tied up the garbage bag in the living room, somewhat speechless at this sharp-tongued girl.
Actually, Misaki Saki was really kind-hearted and could complete the tasks given to her well, but when it came to doing things, she never stopped babbling on and on.
Others might be fine, but as soon as Haruka Yuzan was present, this little girl's lazy sloppiness just couldn't be suppressed.
The two bickered,
Chiba Shimizu came out of the kitchen with a plate of fruit, followed by Reiko Onodera.
"Come have some fruit and take a break."
Reiko Onodera said with a smile, placing the same fruit plate on the coffee table.
Seeing this, Misaki Saki's eyes lit up. She quickly arranged the chairs and after making sure they were neatly in place, scampered to the sofa,
"Sister Reiko, you are so nice!"
The girl's voice was as sweet as honey as she called out.

"You're quite enthusiastic when it comes to eating. Next time, you can sit at the same table with Roast Meat."
Haruka Yuzan walked over, smirking.
"You!"
"Meow!"
Seeing the two about to start arguing again, Mrs. Onodera quickly interjected to mediate, "All right, all right, have more, if it's not enough, I'll go cut more."
"Hmph! Tomorrow I'll buy fruit, and then everyone will get a big watermelon each, and I won't give you any!"
Misaki Saki mumbled at the boy.
"The fruit can't even shut you up?"
Haruka Yuzan skewered two slices of banana with a fork and stuffed them into the girl's mouth.
The incessantly babbling mouth was suddenly filled.
"Mmm mmm mmm..."
"Tastes pretty good..."
......
After the post-meal fruit,
Misaki Saki returned to her room, determined to create a comic that would make Haruka Yuzan faint from excitement!!!
Then, when the boy was drained of all his strength, she would revel in the wicked delight of stepping on him triumphantly.
Thinking about it, Misaki Saki couldn't help but feel excited by her own cleverness as she sat in her chair.
The great Demon King turned out to be... a little ll??
Roast Meat, who had been lured up together, sat on the table, Bean Eyes curiously observing the girl in front of it.
"Meow?"
"Hmm? Roast Meat!" Suddenly, the girl grabbed Roast Meat's chubby body and said earnestly,
"Join my camp! I'll appoint you as the Great General who Revives the Nation!!! You'll get to eat dried fish every day!!!"
