Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK.

Chapter 45: I'll Take This
Listening to the sound of running water coming from the bathroom, Watanabe Yu opened the small refrigerator, took out the ingredients inside, and hummed the clock in the opposite direction softly.

When there is still some charm in life and you are not forced into a state where you only have time to breathe, cooking is indeed a very relaxing thing.

There isn't a lot of food left in the fridge, but it's enough for two people to eat tonight.

He cooked the meal with ease, then placed the chicken breast he had bought a few days ago on the chopping board and began to chop it with the knife tilted sideways.

This will make the chicken softer and not taste so tough.

After taking almost all the photos, he grabbed a kitchen knife and cut the chicken breast into cubes of appropriate size. Then he took out a bowl, added the cooking wine and starch he bought in Chinatown, stirred them well, poured the diced chicken in, and began to marinate.

Putting down the kitchen knife, he took out a small bowl again, took the last three eggs, cracked them, and started beating the egg whites.

Tonight, he plans to use up all the raw materials in the refrigerator.

Fry a portion of Kung Pao Chicken, add a portion of everyone's favorite scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and then cook some vegetable soup. It's simple and goes very well with rice.

He had a strong feeling that Kung Pao Chicken would be a big hit at Ryoko Hamabe's place.

After all, Kung Pao Chicken doesn’t taste that great at all.

After more than twenty minutes, the fragrance filled the room.

"It's time to eat~"

After turning off the stove, Watanabe Yu called out to Hamabe Ryoko who was sitting in the living room.

"coming."

Ryoko Hamabe, who was sitting on the futon, stood up and walked to the kitchen.

The redness and swelling on her knees made her walk a little limp, but she still felt that she should help serve the dishes.

This is the only thing she can do.

"Tonight's dishes are basically non-spicy, so you should be able to handle it easily."

While Watanabe Yu took the fried Kung Pao Chicken out of the pan, he turned his head and looked at Hamabe Ryoko who was standing beside him.

The gray short-sleeved shirt, which was obviously one size too big, covered most of her body.

Hamabe Ryoko's face was flushed, apparently because she had just taken a bath.

She had a white towel draped over her shoulders and grey shorts of the same colour on her lower body. Her long, beautiful legs were slightly crossed, and looking down were her small feet in slippers. One could clearly see the veins on her rosy white insteps.

But Watanabe Yu's gaze was fixed on her knees.

There was obvious redness, swelling and broken skin on her left knee.

He hadn't noticed before that she had injured her knee.

"You go sit down."

Watanabe Yu signaled her not to serve the dishes and just go back and sit down.

"…I want to serve the food. This is the only thing I can do."

Hamabe Ryoko protested.

Her messy short hair swayed slightly, covering her somewhat stubborn eyes.

"predict with confidence."

Watanabe Yu sighed helplessly, did not argue with her, and handed her the plate of Kung Pao Chicken.

He could see that Hamabe Ryoko had her bottom line.

She can accept your kindness, but she also has to respond to the best of her ability.

The girl is a good girl, but she is so stubborn that it makes people feel a little distressed.

"Ah."

Ryoko Hamabe took the plate and walked towards the living room, limping but still managing to be steady.

Seeing her like this, Watanabe Yu quickly brought the remaining two dishes and followed her to the living room.

"I'll get the dishes."

"No, just sit down. That's enough."

Watanabe Yu paused, "Forget about today. When you get better, you can do everything from cooking to washing dishes. I will definitely enjoy the fruits of my labor. Is that okay?"

"……it is good."

Seeing that Hamabe Ryoko finally gave up her insistence, Watanabe Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and went to the kitchen to bring over the dishes and rice cooker.

"How long has your knee been broken?"

Sitting on his own futon, Watanabe Yu filled a bowl of rice and handed it to Hamabe Ryoko.

"Besides the pain, do you feel any discomfort in your bones?"

When it comes to injuries and sprains, he is more or less a good doctor after years of experience.

He learned a few tricks from an old Chinese doctor who had been treating him since he was a child.

There is no problem in treating routine injuries.

"My bones are fine." Hamabe Ryoko took the meal handed to her by Watanabe Yuu and said, "Thank you."

"Can you please stop saying thank you? I'm almost having PTSD."

Watanabe Yu sighed, added another bowl of rice to himself, and then pressed it down with the rice spoon.

From the beginning till now, he couldn't remember how many thank yous he had heard.

"..."

Hamabe Ryoko didn't say anything.

"After dinner, use iodine to disinfect your knees. The medicine box is over there."

He raised his eyebrows and motioned the other party to look at the small box not far from the small square table.

"it is good."

She nodded obediently. "Tell me what's going on with grandma now."

Watanabe Yu picked up a piece of diced chicken with his chopsticks and put it in Hamabe Ryoko's bowl.

Based on his understanding of Hamabe Ryoko, if the situation wasn't so bad, the girl wouldn't be so distraught.

She must have encountered a series of misfortunes that made her despair and feel like the sky was falling, which is why she is in such a miserable state.

"Grandma's second preoperative examination results are out, and they are different from the initial examination results, and are much more serious."

Hamabe Ryoko lowered her head and her voice became much softer unconsciously, "The surgeon told me that she recommended going to a better hospital for this operation.

“In this way, the probability of successful surgery will be much higher and the probability of postoperative complications will be much lower.

"but……"

She didn't finish her words, but the weakness in her voice said it all.

"Let's not talk about the money issue for now. This is easy to solve. You said you need to transfer to another hospital, right?"

Watanabe Yu picked up some Kung Pao Chicken and put it in his bowl.

"Yes."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded, but still didn't pick up her chopsticks.

"As for the hospital, do you have any requirements?" Watanabe Yu thought for a moment and added, "Does the surgeon recommend anything? Don't be so angry, start eating."

"She mentioned before that there are two hospitals with relatively high comprehensive standards in this regard." Hamabe Ryoko obediently picked up the chopsticks, "The University of Tokyo Medical Hospital, or St. Luke's International Hospital."

She also knows these two hospitals are good.

How could such a famous hospital in the Tokyo area be bad?

But the question is, how long will it take to register, queue, get checked, and then get a surgery slot?
Grandma can't delay any longer.

Then there is the cost of the surgery. She simply cannot raise that much money in such a short time.

"The one behind is a private hospital, right?"

Watanabe Yu mentioned it.

He had heard people mention St. Luke's International Hospital.

"Yes."

"What's grandma's illness?"

"Gastrointestinal Tumors."

"Then, St. Luke's International Hospital is indeed the best choice. This hospital is very professional in tumor treatment."

Watanabe Yu smiled gently and comforted Hamabe Ryoko, "Don't think too much, eat first, and leave the rest to me."

"..."

Listening to Watanabe Yu's words, Hamabe Ryoko inexplicably developed a strange feeling.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't believe such remarks.

It sounds like a fantasy that a high school student who is almost the same age as me can solve the problem of transferring to another hospital.

but……

Maybe it was because of the deep impression he had left on her before, or maybe it was because she was out of her mind today.

Her sensibility told her
——Watanabe Yu was not joking, she should believe him.

I believe he can handle this matter as easily as he said.

As for whether this would cause him trouble, she no longer intended to bring it up.

When it comes to her grandmother, she can put aside her usual stubbornness and obstinacy.

"Ah."

She lowered her eyebrows and nodded slightly.

"That's right."

Watanabe Yu nodded slightly with satisfaction.

"Can I have a small suggestion?"

Hamabe Ryoko raised her eyebrows and asked in a low voice.

"You speak."

"Can you please not be so fierce?"

Hamabe Ryoko muttered softly.

“Is this also called fierce?”

Watanabe Yu pushed the scrambled eggs with tomatoes in front of the girl.

She enjoyed this dish very much last time.

Today, between tomato egg soup and scrambled eggs with tomatoes, he hesitated for a moment and finally chose the latter.

"Of course." Hamabe Ryoko looked at him aggrievedly, "Watanabe, you are too tough!"

"Please understand. We frost trolls are like this. We don't understand Yasasi at all. It's a pity that we are not proficient in mouth cannon skills."

Watanabe Yu explained nonchalantly.

Who told you to be hard and not soft?
If it was the Saint Lady, he wouldn't have to be so tough.

But what can you do? You just fall for it.
