Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

Buzz————

Following Ruifei to a booth, while she was ordering, Mu Xiaoxiao took out her phone and glanced at it. She originally thought it was a message from Lingnai or Xia Hai, but it turned out to be from Nishikino Maki. Mu Xiaoxiao paused and couldn't help but glance at Ruifei.

"What's wrong?" Nishikino Mizuki noticed her young man's unusual expression. After a moment's thought, the beautiful young woman understood what was going on. She interlaced her fingers and rested her chin on her hand with interest. "Information about Maki?"

"So that's why you suddenly asked me out today. It turns out Maki came looking for me," Mu Xiaoxiao sighed, looking at her mother's smiling face. This mother of hers really knows how to trick her daughter.

"Partly, I don't know if it's because of Maki, but I also want to go on a date with Xiaoxiao alone," Ruifei said with a gentle smile to her little man, full of affection. "After all, I'm different from Reina, I can see you anytime at school."

Knowing that Mrs. Ruifei missed her, and that this kind of wife and young woman was very understanding and would not usually bother her, Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes softened. "I know. If you miss me, you can move to the church, Ruifei."

“Forget it,” Nishikino Mizuki’s smile widened. “I still have to take care of Maki, so at least, at least I’ll have to wait until Maki goes to high school.”

This sentence seemed to imply that she would not object to Maki and Xiaoxiao's relationship after her daughter went to high school. Mu Xiaoxiao read this meaning from the gentle wife's eyes, paused for a moment, and then her gaze became even gentler. "Consort Rui, thank you for your hard work."

“It’s usually quite tiring, but being with you, Xiaoxiao, makes it all worth it,” Nishikino Ruifei suddenly stood up, her alluring body leaning forward, her fragrance filling the air, and she leaned down to give Mu Xiaoxiao a gentle kiss on the lips.

Mu Xiaoxiao responded to the beautiful young woman's heartfelt kiss, but it didn't last long. After a brief kiss, they separated, and at that moment, coffee and desserts were served.

"Ok?"

Nishikino Mizuki wiped her mouth, glanced at the glass of red wine the waiter brought over, and frowned. "I don't think I ordered any red wine?"

She only ordered coffee and tiramisu. As for this glass of red wine... it seems to be the most expensive Petrus in the store. Could it be a scam? It's not that Nishikino Mizuki can't afford it. To be honest, the Nishikino family has nothing but a lot of money.

But I don't want to be taken advantage of.

"Guest, the lady in booth number 3 is inviting this gentleman for a drink—" the waiter explained.

"Box number 3?"

"Miss?"

Mu Xiaoxiao and Nishikino Ruifei were both stunned. Then, Mrs. Ruifei felt like she had been NTR'd. Realizing what had happened, she glared angrily at Mu Xiaoxiao and turned to ask the shop assistant, "Who was that person? Didn't they tell you?"

"No, but the lady said she was an old acquaintance of this gentleman."

The shop assistant sensed the tense atmosphere and hurriedly left after saying a few words, leaving Mu Xiaoxiao and Mrs. Rui looking at each other for a while. After a long while, the latter finally spoke with a forced smile, "Xiaoxiao, you really attract attention."

Mu Xiaoxiao: "..."

"An old acquaintance? It sounds like it's more than just an old acquaintance. After all, to treat you to Petrus, that lady must be very wealthy and willing to spend money on you," Nishikino Mizuki said, her jealousy growing stronger. Mu Xiaoxiao's lips twitched.

"I really don't know who that person is. As for the wine... should I return it?" Mu Xiaoxiao recalled that she had been approached by women on the street many times before, including hot girls and adult women, but since that lady said she was an old acquaintance, she must have known her before.

He really couldn't remember who it was.

"Why should you return it? They treated you to a drink, so just accept it."

"Well, I'm not old enough to drink alcohol."

"It's okay, you're not Japanese."

Mu Xiaoxiao forced a wry smile, tilted her head back, and drank the entire glass of red wine. Savoring the sweet taste, she smacked her lips. "To be honest, I'm not really interested in red wine. Wild boars can't appreciate fine wine. Coffee or black tea suit me better."

"Consort Rui, could you please order me another cup of black tea?"

Seeing Mu Xiaoxiao's playful actions, Xi Muye Ruifei knew he was doing it on purpose, and the little bit of resentment in her heart quickly dissipated. She gave him a charming glare, then called the waiter to order him another cup of black tea.

The beautiful young woman sat opposite the boy, admiring the way Xiaoxiao savored the red tea and desserts, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart. Suddenly, she spoke up, "Xiaoxiao, aren't you curious about who that old acquaintance is?"

"I'm curious, but spending time with Consort Rui is more important right now," Mu Xiaoxiao said without hesitation.

Mrs. Rui felt even sweeter, her heart was warm and overflowing with happiness, and she wished she could hug him and cling to him right now, but she said, "I'm not one of those little girls, these sweet words can't move me."

My heart had already been swayed long ago.

"Besides, I'm not one of those unreasonable little girls. Since that woman knew you before, go and see who she is." In fact, Rena was also very curious about who the other person was.

"Not jealous anymore?"

“I’m not jealous,” Nishikino Ruifei was, after all, a mature woman, and naturally wouldn’t be jealous like a little girl. This understanding style was also one of the reasons why Mu Xiaoxiao liked them. The boy put down his cup, stood up, and first gave Ruifei a deep kiss on the corner of her mouth before turning around to find the so-called old acquaintance.

Nishikino Mizuki gazed at her lover's departing figure, touched the corner of her warm lips, where a faint taste still lingered, intoxicating her. She picked up her cup, then put it down again.

She didn't even want to drink coffee anymore, lest it overwhelm the subtle flavor.

"Ugh, this kind of thinking is really shameful..."

On the other side, Mu Xiaoxiao was pondering who her 'old flame' was when she knocked on the door. A warm and clear female voice came from inside, somewhat magnetic, mature and charming, and with a touch of playful laughter.

It seemed like he was already smiling.

"Please come in——"

The voice was indeed somewhat familiar. With her powerful memory, Mu Xiaoxiao identified the female protagonist of the voice in less than a second. At the same time, she opened the door and saw the elegant, slender, and sexy figure sitting inside.

Sure enough, it was the person I remembered.

It was her?!

"Ms. Tsubakihara, it's you?"

"I didn't expect you to still remember me," Tsubakihara Mira said with a smile. "Mu-kun~ It's been so long~~"

Chapter 287 Mrs. Mira's Curiosity Deepens

The woman is beautiful.

Her hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, long and flowing orange. She wore a bright red dress, a color that most women would find difficult to pull off, but on her, it suited her perfectly.

Her curvaceous figure was perfectly accentuated by the dress, exuding a mature and charming aura, like a ripe peach. However, in addition to her mature charm, she also had a touch of playful cuteness, making it difficult to tell her exact age.

Her features were almost perfect, her pretty face was bright and charming, with a faint smile on her face. Her fair skin was so delicate that it seemed like it could be broken with a touch. The beauty mark at the corner of her mouth, like that of Nishikino Mizuki, added a touch of allure, making it easy for men to fall in love with her.

Sexy, charming, mature, cute, mischievous... any word used to describe a woman can be used to describe her. Mu Xiaoxiao felt that this extremely beautiful woman could truly be described as a "femme fatale".

If I hadn't been able to sense that she was just an ordinary human, I would have almost mistaken her for a fairy or monster. Her exaggerated charm was something that even Zero and the others couldn't compare to before they evolved.

"Ms. Tsubakihara?"

Tsubakihara Mira, a woman she met in Hokkaido through Mrs. Risa, is also Risa Ogihara's best friend. She met this noblewoman at a banquet... Of course, Tsubakihara Mira is not just a pretty face among those noblewomen. Like Risa, she is also the mistress who controls the Tsubakihara Zaibatsu.

Her husband died young, and she became a powerful businesswoman who became one of the Japanese conglomerates through her own efforts. Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This woman was really too perfect. Not only was she beautiful and charming, but her methods and wisdom were also top-notch.

"I didn't expect it to be you," Mu Xiaoxiao said after a brief moment of surprise. No matter how outstanding and perfect Tsubakihara Mira was, she was still just an ordinary person. In Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes, she was no different from anyone else and was treated the same as everyone else.

"Ms. Tsubakihara isn't in Hokkaido, so why is she in Tokyo?"

“Didn’t you tell Mu-kun last time? I’m originally from Tokyo,” Tsubakihara Mira said with a smile, gesturing for Mu Xiaoxiao to sit down on the sofa. “That time I only went to Hokkaido for business cooperation and also to catch up with old friends.”

"I came back a few days before the New Year. I had some free time today, so I came here to sit for a while. I didn't expect to run into you." She gazed tenderly at the boy's perfect and handsome face. "It's been a while since I last saw you. Mu Jun seems to have become even more handsome. Did you like the gift I just received?"

While saying this, Mira Tsubaki was secretly surprised. Over the years, she had seen many outstanding young talents from tycoons or wealthy families, but she had never seen anyone as outstanding as Mu Xiaoxiao. Moreover, Mira was also very clear that Mu Xiaoxiao's excellence was not only due to her appearance, but also to some inside information that she had investigated in the past few days.

This boy is an absolute rare find in this world.

Mu Xiaoxiao was unaware of what the beautiful young woman was thinking. He casually found a seat and sat down, saying with embarrassment, "I'm not really a fan of red wine, and I'm not even twenty years old yet."

"Is Mu-kun dissatisfied?" A smile flickered on Tsubakihara Mira's exquisite face, and she also had a maternal gentleness about her, making it hard to associate her with those powerful businesswomen, such as Nakiri Managi.

Mira's gaze towards Mu Xiaoxiao became meaningful. "Compared to Mu Jun, shouldn't I be the one more dissatisfied?"

As she spoke, she puffed out her cheeks, making a cute pufferfish-like face. To be honest, for a young woman of Mira's age, such girlish movements should seem strange, but she did it naturally and appropriately, without any sense of incongruity.

All I can say is that this woman's charm is truly extraordinary.

"Oh?"

"Mu-kun, it makes me really angry that you're with other women," Tsubakihara Mira continued, puffing out her cheeks. "Risa is a very devoted woman; she's deeply in love with Mu-kun, but you're out there flirting with other women. Humph!"

Mu Xiaoxiao: "..."

"As Risa's best friend, I don't want to see her get hurt again because of you, Mu-kun—"

Mu Xiaoxiao's lips twitched violently. She scratched her head awkwardly and asked, "Is it possible... that Risa knows about these things about me?"

Tsubakihara Mira: ?_??

"Besides, Ruifei knew me before Risa did. Also, when we went to Hokkaido, Ruifei went with me. Risa knew about her," Mu Xiaoxiao said leisurely, then smiled and looked at the bewildered Tsubakihara Mira.

The latter stared blankly as she opened her red lips, revealing Lady Mira's neat and white teeth. She seemed to be shocked by Mu Xiaoxiao's words. It took her a long time to recover from the shock, and her gaze focused as she met the boy's crimson eyes. She remained silent for a long time.

"Mu Jun, you, this..."

She suddenly had nothing to say.

Mira held her forehead with her small, white hand, rubbing her temples. After a moment of hesitation, she finally spoke helplessly, "This is truly unbelievable. It was already hard to believe last time that she would give up her hatred and fall in love with you. At least this kind of thing is somewhat understandable. Mu Jun, you are indeed a very outstanding young man."

“But she actually tolerated you and other women… As far as I know Risa is concerned, it’s really impossible, it’s a fantasy, I wouldn’t even dare to think about it, but it really happened,” Tsubakihara Mira said, pinching and pulling at her collagen-rich facial skin.

"Waaah... This isn't a dream..."

Oh no, what should I do if she looks unexpectedly cute like this? Mu Xiaoxiao's eyelids twitched and she quickly looked away. "I understand what Miss Tsubakihara means. Mrs. Risa... is indeed a very devoted woman. Well, to put it simply, she's love-struck."

It's bizarre that someone would be so obsessed with love that they wouldn't even care about their daughter.

"But people change. I know a bit about Risa from before, and now, Mrs. Risa has changed a lot. She can accept the other girls around me, and to be honest, I am very touched."

"Change...?"

Thinking about how her friend Risa had become increasingly cheerful after Mu Jun appeared, compared to her previous gloomy face and bitter expression, Risa had indeed changed a lot, to the point that she almost didn't recognize her.

And all these changes, all these transformations, were brought about by the young man in front of us.

This made Tsubakihara Mira even more curious about him. Mu-kun... how did he do it? What kind of magic could make the stubborn and crazy Risa change so much, almost like a different person, becoming as gentle as a Yamato Nadeshiko?

Furthermore, it wasn't just that. If Mira's curiosity about Mu Xiaoxiao was only due to her good friend Risa Ogiwara, after returning to Tokyo, Mira investigated Mu Xiaoxiao, and the results made her even more intrigued.

The inexplicable origins and lack of information, coupled with the fact that the Fei Shen Society was a strange religious organization that had attracted the attention of upper-class circles, aroused Mrs. Mira's intense curiosity.

Who exactly is Mu Jun?

Those ambiguous pieces of information, their uncertain origins, and the strange, unknown intelligence, all shrouded in an aura of mystery, made one want to explore his secrets. If Mu Xiaoxiao's appearance and her good friend's influence were merely what aroused Mira's curiosity...

The more mysterious aura emanating from Mu Xiaoxiao made Tsubakihara Mira want to get closer to him and explore everything about him.

After all, no matter how charming Mu Xiaoxiao is, she can't be won over by looks alone. And now that the Concubine God Society has appeared, she has truly developed some feelings for this person.

"Mu Jun, who exactly are you?"

"Ok?"

"Let's leave Risa aside. That Ruifei is Mrs. Nishikino Ruifei, right? I heard that her husband went crazy because of something, but I never expected her to have this kind of ambiguous relationship with you... And the Feishen Association, Mu-kun, you must be no ordinary person. I really want to know what secrets you're hiding~"

Facing the beautiful woman's probing gaze, Mu Xiaoxiao accepted it calmly, "Miss Tsubakihara investigated me?"

"I only heard about the existence of the Hime-shinkai and your name after returning to Tokyo, so I did some research out of curiosity. I hope you don't mind, Mu-kun?" Mira shrugged. "But I didn't find anything."
