Chapter 342: Chapter 340: The Second Life Consultation
As soon as the Black Hearted Lolita saw Shirakawa Sawahei come back, she immediately felt like he was slapping her in the face... She clearly wasn’t willing to waver in her suspicions. As Shirakawa Sawahei handed the cooking ingredients to the Whimpering Monster and everyone’s attention was temporarily drawn to the ingredients, Asano Nazuki took the opportunity to sneak over, her face full of suspicion as she began to sniff the smell on Shirakawa Sawahei.
Sniff, sniff...
Hmm, the black-hearted woman has to sniff too...
No doubt about it, the little lolita’s head got a tap from both Shirakawa Sawahei and Little Arrogant. She clutched her head, muttering angrily, "What are you doing?"
"How could you even ask? Why did you come over to sniff me? Do you identify people by smell now?"
"Even if you’re my sister, don’t do such silly things."
"Mind your business!" the Black Hearted Lolita said viciously. "You two didn’t do anything funny, right?"
"Funny things like..."
"Like getting a room."
"... "
Shirakawa Sawahei sighed, glanced at Hayakawa Kashi as if asking her, are you going or should I go...
Hayakawa Kashi didn’t answer, she merely closed her eyes slowly, expressing her idea through her actions.
Go ahead.
Black Hearted Lolita: ???
"Little... um... Little Bai... um um um..."
"Huh? Hayakawa, where are Shirakawa and Konatsuori?"
"They seemed to have gone to buy seasonings... they’ll be back soon." Hayakawa Kashi smiled slightly and said, "Let’s start cooking first..."
After just a dish’s worth of time, Shirakawa Sawahei walked out from the corner with the little lolita in tow, and to cooperate with Little Arrogant’s lie, he even opened a door for effect.
Black Hearted Lolita: %...%#@@@@￥￥% (Lolita swearing)
Such acting skills! Why don’t you two go win an Oscar! Allowing outsiders to bully your own sister! Indeed, the black-hearted woman has reached new lows!
With a sense of grievance, the Black Hearted Lolita didn’t say much at the dinner table, except when biting into sausages she put in a bit more force; the rest of the time she secretly glared at Shirakawa Sawahei and Hayakawa Kashi.
In terms of results, Miss Kaori’s casual meal didn’t cause any terrible consequences, everything seemed so harmonious...
Hmm, except for Asano Nazuki’s slightly desperate expression when Hayakawa Kashi found an irresistible reason to take her away, it was otherwise a perfect day... Shirakawa Sawahei thought about it carefully, and his biggest worry recently, which was Tsukimi Yamadori-related problems, seemed to be barely resolved. As long as the Whimpering Monster didn’t stir things up, Tsukimi Yamadori surely couldn’t fault him.
Trying to flirt with someone else’s heir? Please, take a look at what kind of image the heir has, it’s really not me deliberately taking advantage of her... In a sense, it’s the Whimpering Monster who has actually taken advantage of me.
Have I ever cried out unjustly? No, I have silently endured all this without complaint... I don’t care about outsiders’ perspectives, nor do I care about others’ criticisms...
Shirakawa Sawahei felt that just based on his own comprehension, if Tsukimi Yamadori still dared to come for him, it wouldn’t be a human thing to do.
After seeing off Ms. Tachibana Tomoku and the Whimpering Monster at the train station, Shirakawa Sawahei leisurely walked towards the apartment by himself, still taking out his phone along the way to ask if the Black Hearted Lolita had reached home.
Asano Nazuki replied with three angry exclamations, seemingly still fuming from his and Hayakawa Kashi’s joint teasing. Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but find it amusing, this little girl, although she doesn’t hold grudges like her sister, would be back to her usual self after being coaxed for a couple of days and continue being mischievous.
"I’m back."
After opening the apartment door, Shirakawa Sawahei casually called out, but no one responded with the usual "Welcome back." Usually, at this time, the girl loafing around on the sofa watching TV or reading doujinshi was surprisingly absent from the scene where she was supposed to appear today.
This guy... Did she go play games?
Ise Yu Yuzhijin’s unusual behavior made him curious. As he passed by the girl’s room, he took a glance; through the slightly ajar door, it wasn’t the dim blue glow of a screen emitting, but the regular lighting of a bedroom.
Unable to suppress his curiosity, Shirakawa Sawahei knocked on the door and entered. The originally engrossed slacking girl was startled by the sudden change, instinctively trying to cover up something on her desk.
"Shirakawa? What are you doing~"
"You seem a bit unusual..." Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at the desk and was surprised to find draft sketches for manga, asking, "What’s up today? You’re starting to draw before the deadline... Are you sick?"
"???"
"Shirakawa! That’s too much! Do you really think of me as someone who only lazes around and never draws before deadlines?"
"Yes, you are."
"You!"
Cute little Ise Yu sighed, feeling dejected, "Shirakawa... Even if I’ve had one or two incidents like this before, can’t you have a little faith in me..."
"Trust from others is something you have to earn yourself; it’s not given just because someone says so."
"Something you earn yourself..." Ise Yu Yuzhijin was stunned, unusually speechless, and while Shirakawa Sawahei was about to leave, her voice echoed softly behind him.
"Um... Shirakawa?"
"Hmm?"
The girl’s voice uncharacteristically carried a hint of apprehension as she gazed at Shirakawa Sawahei’s back, hesitantly saying, "Can I seek your advice on life again?"
Shirakawa Sawahei: "?"
These days, life advice usually involves going to a girl’s room at night...?
...
Considering the unusual behavior of the slacking girl today, Shirakawa Sawahei hesitated but ultimately agreed. By the time he showered and knocked on the door to enter, Ise Yu Yuzhijin had already changed into her pajamas and sat formally on the double bed.
"Shirakawa, please sit."
"..."
"Can’t we just sit on the floor for advice? Always getting on your bed just feels a bit strange..."
"Oh, it’s fine, Shirakawa, it’s not your first time, don’t be so shy!"
"Explain yourself, what do you mean it’s not the first time?"
"Not the first time on my bed... what else could it be?" The slacking girl blinked her innocent eyes, teasingly saying, "You’re so lewd, Shirakawa, thinking such naughty things..."
"..."
Under Shirakawa Sawahei’s notorious scoundrel aura, cute little Ise Yu didn’t dare to play innocent anymore, obediently lowering her head, beginning the second life consultation.
"Um... Shirakawa... do you think... as the opposite sex... how am I as a person?"
The first question of her life consultation struck Shirakawa Sawahei like a lightning bolt; he instinctively glanced at his system, his heart filled with suspicion...
I clearly didn’t take this slacking girl as a learning partner... why does this feel like... she’s about to confess or something?
