My life in the underworld begins at the Takayanagi family!

"I see."

Saionji Sekai certainly didn't want to upset her good friend, so she followed Kiyoura Setsuna's example and put some food in her own bowl before leaving.

"What you said about Makoto Ito, is it possible that Manami was behind it?"

Now that their two daughters are no longer with them, the two wives don't need to worry too much when they talk.

Of course, both wives knew. Ito Jo knew Katsura Kotonoha, and also knew Katsura Manami, who was behind Katsura Kotonoha.

After hearing Kiyoura Mai's doubts, Saionji Oyiko thought for a moment and shook her head.

“If Manami were still doing her old job, she would have the resources and connections to do this.”

But now even his own small shop seems to be on the verge of collapse, let alone restoring his daughter's reputation.

However, removing someone like Ito Jo from the school is a good thing for both the world and Setsuna.

As a mother, Saionji Odori was well aware of her daughter's attitude towards Ito Jo.

Saionji Odori originally wanted her daughter, Saionji Sekai, to step in and comfort her when she encountered setbacks.

Unexpectedly, things took an unexpected turn and developed in a completely different direction.

"Yes, that way you'll suffer less damage in an instant."

"What, she... in an instant..."

Saionji Odori was a little shocked. It was obvious to everyone that her daughter had feelings for Ito Shiro, but she didn't expect that the little girl Kiyoura Setsuna also had feelings for Ito Shiro.

"She just hides it very well. If she weren't my daughter, I definitely wouldn't have been able to tell."

"If that's the case, Setsuna might definitely have had a good impression of Itō Jō before the world even existed."

But after realizing the world's attitude, she chose to remain silent and withdraw.

After learning this news, Kiyoura Setsuna's strange behavior could now be perfectly explained.

Saionji Oyomi was amazed that her daughter had truly met a wonderful friend.

"It's just a childhood friendship, but it's still very precious."

Now that Ito Shiro and that boy are definitely leaving school, I don't need to worry too much about their future.

"Should we take a day off and go check on the situation at True Beauty?"

Some of the culprits were kicked out of the school, which made Saionji Yoko very happy. So she wanted to go and see what was going on with Katsura Manami. Could it be that even the small shop couldn't be saved?

"Let's wait a bit longer. Maybe Manami will ask us for help."

"Then we'll definitely have to give her a good talking-to."

Credit agency.

When Ran Mouri saw that Shinichi Kudo showed no intention of leaving the detective agency all night, her last shred of hope vanished completely.

Now that Shinichi Kudo and his father have that kind of relationship, there is absolutely no possibility for her to be with Shinichi Kudo.

The thought of going on a trip with Shinichi Kudo tomorrow made Ran Mouri tremble slightly; she always felt a little nauseous.

Therefore, Ran Mouri can only numb herself through work. For example, Ran Mouri cooks dinner by herself, and Ichiro Takayanagi enjoys Ran Mouri's culinary skills.

When Ichiro Takayanagi came back from outside today, Kaoru Takayanagi said that it was a bit of a pity that he didn't come home yesterday because he didn't get to taste Ran Mouri's cooking.

Now Ran Mouri is taking the initiative to cook all the dishes, which can be considered a change in attitude. She has completely regarded this place as her second home.

After dinner, it was the couple, Kaoru Takayanagi and Mitsuka Takayanagi, who cleaned up.

Kaoru Takayanagi wanted to do housework, but her mother criticized her harshly.

She's not some rich heiress; she definitely has things to do.

Of course, most of the work was done by Takayanagi Mitsuka, and Takayanagi Kaoru just went there occasionally.

"Brother Gao Liu, do you think love can really exist between men?"

Only Ichiro Takayanagi and Ran Mouri remained in the living room. Ran Mouri suddenly asked Ichiro Takayanagi a question out of the blue.

"Xiaolan, this is a distorted love, and it's not something you should be considering."

Chapter 161 Ran Mouri's Heart Is Itching

Ichiro Takayanagi did not point it out, but he already knew that Ran Mouri was referring to Kogoro Mouri and Shinichi Kudo.

I just said immediately that it was a distorted kind of love, the kind that shouldn't be encouraged.

After hearing what Ichiro Takayanagi said, Ran Mouri fell silent.

"Is Xiaolan one of your good friends at school in this situation? I don't think you need to get involved."

Because in the end, it will only cause you trouble, and you might even offend the other party.

Ichiro Takayanagi's selfless attitude made Ran Mouri feel at ease.

No wonder her mother sent Takayanagi Ichiro along; he'll definitely carry out Eri Kisaki's instructions perfectly.

"Sonoko just mentioned this topic to me. There's something I don't understand, so I'm asking Takayanagi-nii."

Ran Mouri shifted the blame onto Sonoko Suzuki at this moment, which surprised Ichiro Takayanagi a little.

However, having not seen Sonoko Suzuki for two days in a row, Ichiro Takayanagi was starting to miss her a little.

Because Sonoko Suzuki is the kind of girl who is very proactive and opinionated, if she likes someone, she will confess to him after meeting him once, and she has already become Ichiro Takayanagi's girlfriend.

Furthermore, Sonoko Suzuki also learned about the relationship between Ichiro Takayanagi and Kaoru Takayanagi, but she did not intend to deny it.

Instead, they believe it's normal for Takayanagi Ichiro to take care of Takayanagi Kaoru and Takayanagi Mitsuka.

"Sonoko, that little girl could indeed say such things."

Ran Mouri and Ichiro Takayanagi weren't far apart. You could tell that when Ichiro Takayanagi talked about Sonoko, his words were full of affection, just like when he talked about Kaoru Takayanagi.

This surprised Ran Mouri a bit, considering that Sonoko Suzuki and Ichiro Takayanagi had only met for the first time two days ago. Their relationship was developing too quickly.

It's impossible for me to be with Shinichi Kudo in the future, and I'll have to live with Ichiro Takayanagi for three years.

What if you consider what would happen if you thought about Ichiro Takayanagi? Would you end up fighting with your best friend for a man?

"Brother Gao Liu, what do you think those people are thinking?"

Ran Mouri still couldn't understand why her father and Shinichi Kudo would do such a thing.

Kogoro Mouri is not divorced from Eri Kisaki, while Shinichi Kudo has her as his childhood friend and also has some female admirers at school.

From any perspective, a relationship between Shinichi Kudo and Kogoro Mouri is impossible.

"I do not know."

When faced with Ran Mouri's question, Ichiro Takayanagi shook his head and then repeated what he had said to Ran Mouri before.

"Because I like women, and more mature women."

So I don't know the answer to this question, and I'm sorry to disappoint you, Xiaolan.

After hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's answer, Ran Mouri was somewhat moved, realizing that Takayanagi Ichiro was actually a very persistent person.

When Ran Mouri came here last time, she asked a similar question, and Ichiro Takayanagi gave the same answer.

Furthermore, Ran Mouri also spied on Ichiro Takayanagi and Mitsuka Takayanagi making love, proving that Ichiro Takayanagi was not lying; he does indeed prefer mature women.

"I'm really sorry, I asked some rather impolite questions."

Ran Mouri apologized, and by this time, Kaoru Takayanagi and Mitsuka Takayanagi had almost finished cleaning up the mess left after the meal.

"Sister Xiaolan, would you like to take a bath with me later?"

Even though Ran Mouri now has her own room, Kaoru Takayanagi can still invite Ran to take a bath with him.

Kaoru Takayanagi actually said this in front of Ichiro Takayanagi, which made Ran Mouri a little embarrassed, but she did not refuse and nodded heavily instead.

After all, Ran Mouri will be living here for three years, and she has said before that she will treat this place as her own home.

In that case, Ichiro Takayanagi and the others are considered Ran Mouri's family, so there's no need for them to be too secretive about it.

...............

Ran Mouri has been staying at the credit office for several days now and is no longer as reserved as she was on her first visit.

However, Ran Mouri still felt a little uneasy sleeping alone, so she got up and wanted to go to Kaoru Takayanagi's room.

She paused briefly as she passed Takayanagi Miku's room.

There was no indication that Ichiro Takayanagi was not in Mitsuka Takayanagi's room tonight.

Soon, Ran Mouri arrived at Kaoru Takayanagi's room.

Ran Mouri was stunned when she opened the door.

There was still some moonlight outside tonight, and Ran Mouri, using the moonlight, did not see Kaoru Takayanagi on the bed.

Did he go to the restroom?

Instead of checking the temperature on the bed, Ran Mouri went straight to the toilet.

Unfortunately, Ran Mouri couldn't find Kaoru Takayanagi in the restroom either; she was disappointed once again.

Could it be that they were sleeping together in Takayanagi Mitsuka's room?

Ran Mouri had a deep understanding of what Kaoru Takayanagi and Mitsuka Takayanagi had experienced in the countryside, so she felt it was safer for the two of them to be together.

If that's really the case, then she shouldn't bother Takayanagi Kaoru.

At the same time, I felt a little envious that I could sleep with my mother.

Her mother, Eri Kisaki, had no intention of abandoning her and cared for her deeply during the ten years she was separated from Kogoro Mouri.

If it weren't for Eri Kisaki's occasional acts of kindness, Ran Mouri and her father, Kogoro Mouri, might have ended up on the streets.

However, because Eri Kisaki is busy with her career, she can only see her daughter during her rest time and cannot spend a long time with her.

Although Kaoru Takayanagi and Mitsuka Takayanagi suffered some hardships in the countryside, they will only enjoy more and more happiness now that they are with Ichiro Takayanagi.

Furthermore, she would be Gao Liuxun's personal tutor for three years, and under her guidance, Gao Liuxun would definitely become a true city girl.
