Chapter 129: Chapter 110 The Despicable Trio_2
Hearing the boy's request, Reiko Onodera's eyes visibly brightened, and she seemed very happy,
"Mm-hm, then tomorrow's lunch will be abalone rice! I'll go ask Shimizu what she'd like to eat in a bit."
This feeling of being needed was exactly what the madam wanted most,
"You should go take a bath first; I'll cut some fruit for you."
"Okay." Watching the graceful figure of the madam departing, Haruka Yuzan couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
...
[Tenant: 002]
[Name: Reiko Onodera]
[Tenant's Wish List:]
[1. Wishes to earn more money (Unfulfilled)]
[2. Wishes to have her own true career (Unfulfilled)]
[3. Wishes to bring her daughter to live together in Tokyo (Unfulfilled)]
[Completion of Wish List One, Reward: Eighty percent of Reiko Onodera's income]
[Completion of Wish List Two, Reward: One career starter package]
Glancing at the virtual panel, Haruka Yuzan entered the first-floor bathroom and began to bathe. Chiba Shimizu, sitting quietly in the living room, reading a book, didn't show much expression toward the return of the boy.
"Whoosh" The water flowed over the boy's perfect muscle contours; after washing his hair, Haruka Yuzan couldn't help but start contemplating,
Working part-time in a convenience store was never a long-term plan; those places are mostly taken by housewives or students for part-time work.
It's leisurely, and the pay barely covers daily expenses,
For the madam, although she's not spending money now, the salary obviously wouldn't be enough if Rika Onodera were to come and live with her in Tokyo.
Possibly, the scene of mother and daughter parting that day had quite an impact on Reiko Onodera, which prompted the madam's wish list to earn more money.
In fact, Haruka had also considered this.
If the madam earns more, he gets more too, without the need to work, but... what should Sister Reiko do?
.....
Just coming out of the bathroom,
He found Reiko Onodera standing at the door,
The madam, in her white nightgown with her black hair piled high, revealed a lot of snow-white skin that seemed even better than before; she looked renewed, extra radiant and supple.
"Do you need something, Sister Reiko?" Haruka Yuzan wiped his hair with a towel, curious.
"No, I'm just going to wash some clothes." Reiko Onodera said in a soft voice, the bathroom steam making her delicate face blush with a young girl's shyness.
Before the boy came back, the madam was washing clothes inside.
"Okay, go ahead."
Haruka Yuzan stepped aside, and in the instant the madam passed by, he naturally reached out and touched her body.
Looking at the graceful figure now busy with her tasks, he inwardly exclaimed at the thought of having such a beautiful lady at home—it really was quite nice.
...
Upon reaching the living room,
The pretty girl sat on the sofa, with Roast Meat lying lazily beside her, and Misaki Saki nowhere to be seen—maybe she was drawing?
On the coffee table lay a small piece of chocolate cake left over that looked like it would be pretty good; why hadn't it been finished?
Just as he sat on the sofa, Qingling's voice came over,
"This is for you, Misaki said, let you have a taste too."
Chiba Shimizu, with her book, watched silently, her clear eyes especially cold tonight.
"Thanks." Haruka Yuzan was startled, not expecting it to be specially left for him.
Though he was already full, it would be rude to refuse the girl's kind gesture, hmm... that applied to both Misaki and Chiba.
Picking up the clean utensils next to him, he put a piece of cake into his mouth.
The rich chocolate melted in his mouth, its sweet aroma lingering; it was very good, rivaling his own creations.
Praising himself, he also conveyed his compliment to the girl,
"It's very good, Class President Chiba,"
"Mm." The girl's response was still very aloof.
Shrugging, he began to check his earnings for the day.
[Completion of Misaki Saki's Wish List One, Reward: Five thousand yen.]
[Completion of Chiba Shimizu's Wish List One, Reward: One Intermediate Cooking Fragment]
He had done nothing, easily accomplishing two daily wish lists,
Misaki ate the chocolate cake made by Chiba Shimizu, completing the wish list.
And Chiba Shimizu's wish to learn how to cook was also fulfilled, led by Reiko Onodera.
Every day that went by, he was closer to the day he would... lay back and relax.
...
The night was breezy,
The lights on both sides of the street were just enough to see the path under one's feet.
Haruka Yuzan sat on the sofa, gently stroking Roast Meat in his arms. The fat cat seemed to enjoy such moments, lazily stretching his chubby paws,
This night was so much like that one.
"Ah, Roast." The boy softly called, as if beckoning to a dear friend.
"Meow?" Roast Meat widened his bean eyes, sitting up in a sit-up posture and... looking around, confused, a ball of doughy face carrying a glimmer of "wisdom",
This... is someone calling for me?
"Ah, Roast, do you think the world really has such coincidences?" Haruka Yuzan gazed out the window, talking to himself.
"Meow?"
Haruka Yuzan first met Otome Mizuko not during the opening ceremony, but in his second week in Tokyo.
Back then,
Having passed the entrance exams for a prominent high school in Tokyo, Haruka Yuzan had already arrived in this international city a week before school started.
