I Am an Emperor in a World of Mixed Anime

Although Akira Higashino didn't care much.

But not Mai Sakurajima. A young girl would probably be too shy to accept intimacy in a private environment like a bedroom.

The other maps are completely grayed out and cannot be explored.

"Clingy!"

Akira Higashino made a comment.

Upon hearing this, Toyohama Kazuka glared at him defiantly, "You womanizer!"

"I'm a sister-obsessed person!"

"You big pervert!"

"..."

The two got closer and closer, exchanging words back and forth, neither willing to give in, until finally their foreheads were touching.

In the area connecting the living room and bedroom rest area, Mai Sakurajima, who had woken up sometime earlier, pushed open the door and saw this scene, and helplessly held her forehead.

"Seriously, are you all children?"

Since her comeback, Mingming has had a smooth career, stable studies, and her relationships with her sister and boyfriend have progressed further.

But why is it that my sister and her boyfriend act like two children whenever they're together?

Can't we just get along properly?

Mai Sakurajima felt somewhat troubled.

Her sudden words broke the deadlock between Higashino Akira and Toyohama Kaori, causing their expressions to change slightly. They turned to look at each other and tacitly stopped arguing.

Akira Higashino: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

Kazuka Toyohama: "Mmm."

Akira Higashino: "We're not arguing."

Kazuka Toyohama: "Yes."

Akira Higashino: "That was just a unique way we communicate our feelings."

Toyohama Kazuka: "Huh? Oh! Is...is that so?"

"Look if you don't believe me." Higashino Akira turned his head and gave his sister-in-law a big kiss on the cheek.

Startled by the sudden attack, Toyohama Kazuka froze, her eyes widening in surprise, and her cute little face flushed red.

Higashino Akira pointed to his own profile. After hesitating for a long time, Toyohama Kaori gritted her teeth and followed suit, leaning in to kiss him as well.

He kissed her cheek briefly, then pulled away as if he'd touched a hot potato. He quickly retreated back to where he'd started, his body burning with heat and his breathing becoming rapid. He pretended to be nonchalant and fanned his face with his hand.

"You see, my relationship with Kaori has always been quite good."

"Mai-san's younger sister is my younger sister. I'm the most experienced older brother when it comes to this!"

Seeing this, Mai Sakurajima rolled her eyes at him, speechless. "You'd better be."

She knew perfectly well how her boyfriend acted as a brother; she'd been to Okumizome before and knew Miko and the others.

Seeing that Zi and Ying didn't treat him like a stranger, it was all because of their kind nature.

She didn't think much of what her boyfriend and sister had just done; after all, it was just a kiss on the cheek, nothing serious.

It even felt a little funny.

That idiot He Xiang, if she didn't want to cooperate, she shouldn't have done it. Instead, she got tricked and then tried to smooth things over for her malicious brother-in-law.

Finally, she went all the way away by herself to sulk, her face turning red with anger.

There was no other way; in order to get the two of them to get along and stop arguing, Mai Sakurajima had to walk over and sit between them, separating them.

When her boyfriend gently took her arm, she hesitated for a moment, after all, her younger sister was still by her side, but in the end she followed her heart and leaned shyly into his arms.

It's hard for her to say how much she loves this man, or how deeply she likes him.

But over the years, I haven't really disliked him.

She had long been used to the sudden presence of such a man in her life, offering companionship and protection.

Given her profession, if she doesn't actively cut ties for the sake of the relationship, the number of times they meet each other each year can be counted on two hands, and it would be difficult to completely avoid some intimate activities and scenes that she doesn't particularly like.

Only with him, the separation of time does not affect his feelings for her. If she doesn't want to take on roles that are unsuitable or that she doesn't like, he can give her the confidence to refuse.

For her, Akira Higashino may not be the best, but he is the most suitable.

Having not seen each other for so long, the girl inevitably felt guilty and was unwilling to embarrass him because of a little shyness or her image in front of her sister.

In order to distract himself and his sister from being teased by Kaori.

Mai Sakurajima didn't just sit there idly. She took the initiative to chat with her sister and boyfriend about her experiences, insights, and interesting stories from her travels around the country and abroad over the past six months. At the same time, she also made sure to check on her sister and boyfriend's lives during this period.

Chapter 294 The Battle of the Culinary Kings

Seeing her sister and boyfriend embracing intimately, Toyohama Kaori couldn't help but think of how she had been in close contact with that guy before, or even closer.

Especially during the time when I was using my sister's body.

She almost... almost...

Even after they switched back later, ...

Looking back now, it does seem a bit inappropriate.

And today, this big bad guy actually teased me like that in front of my sister!

He's absolutely wicked!

Those experiences kept surfacing in the girl's mind. Idol girl Xiaohe felt ashamed, and at the same time, she was overwhelmed by layers of shame, making her brain feel dizzy.

Faced with her sister's concern and inquiries, she stammered and gave vague answers, appearing absent-minded.

Fortunately, she wasn't the only girl in the living room who felt shy and absent-minded.

Mai Sakurajima, who was experiencing similar emotions, was completely unaware of her younger sister's unusual behavior.

After chatting briefly with Kaori, the conversation gradually turned to Akira Higashino. While talking to her boyfriend, they slowly transitioned from discussing serious matters to starting to be a little silly. National idol Mai Sakurajima blushed slightly as she was teased, exuding unparalleled charm.

If my younger sister hadn't been there, who knows what might have happened.

Having witnessed her sister and her lover's pleasant and harmonious relationship throughout, the sister-in-law felt a sense of emptiness and bitterness in her heart, a feeling she couldn't quite describe.

I could only silently send my blessings to my sister, who seemed so happy.

Dinner was prepared by Mai Sakurajima and her younger sister. Although it wasn't anything particularly rare or delicious, when it comes to ingredients, as long as you follow the methods and steps summarized by predecessors, the taste is unlikely to be particularly bad.

Akira Higashino certainly loves good food, but that doesn't mean he can't eat ordinary home-cooked meals.

That's an illness, it's picky eating.

He doesn't have a divine tongue, so as long as the food he receives isn't particularly bad, he'll just praise and show off the dishes that the pretty girls have worked hard to make.

If we don't please the chef, we won't have a meal next time.

If we can give them positive feedback and motivate them to continue to hone their culinary skills, they might be able to enjoy even more delicious dishes next time they come.

For example, right now.

Mai Sakurajima, who went abroad to work but never forgot to hone her culinary skills and learn foreign cooking techniques, made a special effort to remember his taste preferences and even learned some common Chinese cooking methods for him.

Akira Higashino is the most shrewd person. After the meal, when someone asked him if his girlfriend's cooking was good, he said he was full.

into the night.

After eating and drinking their fill, everyone washed up and rested early, making the most of their time.

Daifuku, a type of sweet dessert, is chewy and bouncy. Beneath its delicate and light-tasting outer layer lies a rich, sticky, and sweet filling.

The resulting exquisitely pink and soft texture creates an extraordinary culinary experience.

Mai Sakurajima is an excellent confectioner.

As Higashino Akira enjoyed the meal, he felt grateful and a desire to reciprocate arose within him.

However, he didn't have the skill to make soft, bouncy daifuku. That kind of thing requires talent, and if you can't do it, you just can't.

Trying to imitate something too closely might result in a mishmash that looks similar, both being white and clean, but is actually completely different in nature. It not only lacks the proper softness and smoothness, but might even feel a bit prickly when you eat it.

However, he is not entirely without his own talents and culinary skills.

For example, cream puffs, something simple and easy to make, are one of his specialties.

One of the biggest challenges in making cream puffs is whipping the cream, which is exactly what Akira Higashino, who is known for his powerful and explosive movements, can easily accomplish. He simply inserts the whisk into the mixing bowl and moves it wildly up and down, left and right, just keep pushing and leave the rest to fate. After a while, the thick and sticky cream will be whipped up.

Don't forget to add some sugar halfway through; use whatever sugar you have on hand, just a little bit, stir well, and you'll have a pot of creamy, sweet, and delicious finished product.

As for the remaining step of pouring cream into the cream puffs, that's the least technically demanding. You don't even need to exert any force; just aim at the target and keep pouring.

After having eaten and drunk his fill, Akira Higashino didn't like to continue with large meals of meat and fish; instead, he preferred to eat some snacks that suited his taste.

Mai Sakurajima, however, is different.

It's probably because girls have smaller appetites. She doesn't eat much at dinner, which makes it easier for her to digest food and get hungry again, thus regaining her appetite.

She'll eat anything, from sausages to cream.

I'm not worried about gaining weight from eating too much at night. After all, being a chef is very physically demanding. If I can't keep up with the high-energy, high-nutrient foods and replenish my body's needs in time, it's hard to sustain it for long.

You should eat juicy sausages and taste sweet whipped cream; only then can you be considered well-rounded.

In the bedroom, Akira Higashino and his girlfriend held a cooking competition, competing against each other and exchanging culinary skills. The aroma of various ingredients and finished dishes spread throughout the room and lingered for a long time.

Looking at his girlfriend, who was panting heavily, drenched in sweat, her bangs damp and clinging to her face, her cheeks flushed from exhaustion, Higashino Akira asked with concern:

"Can you still hold on?"
