Sumireko Sanshokuin pinched her face hard; the pain told her that this was neither an illusion nor a dream.

Li Wei glanced at Sumireko Sanshokuin, who was standing foolishly by the door, and felt a little amused. Girls are always prone to daydreaming, even a great beauty like Sumireko Sanshokuin is no exception.

It didn't take Li Wei long to prepare several home-style dishes. Having spent so much time in Japan, he was quite familiar with various Japanese home-cooked meals. However, Japanese home-cooked food was too bland for him, so he modified the recipes himself, making the dishes more flavorful and aromatic.

Sumireko Sanshokuin watched in astonishment as Li Wei completed the dish as if by magic. So little time had passed, yet Li Wei's speed was unbelievable; his hands never stopped. This precise control over time and the cooking process surpassed even that of professional chefs.

Li Wei untied his apron and said with a smile, "Let's prepare dinner. Jinzi, you go and sit down in the dining room first, and I'll bring the dishes over."

Sumireko Sanshokuin nodded, leaning on her cane, and walked towards the dining hall. She was starting to get used to using the cane, even though it would soon be returned to the school clinic. It was always more convenient to be used to it. She arrived at the dining hall, pulled out a chair, and sat down. Li Wei followed closely behind, bringing various dishes to her. The abundant, warm, and comforting home-cooked meals soothed her soul.

Li Wei sat down next to the girl, wiped her hands with a wet wipe, and said, "Your legs aren't very mobile right now, and it's quite troublesome to go to the restroom to wash your hands. Just make do for now."

Sumireko Sanshokuin had a faint blush on her face. Although it wasn't the first time she had been in such close contact with Li Wei, the special scent emanating from him made her heart race. Just smelling that unique scent made her feel hot and itchy inside.

Sanshokuin Sumireko whispered, "Li Weijun, if you keep going like this, I'll become dependent on you."

When a girl starts to become dependent on a boy, it means that her heart has already fallen for him. Although Sumireko Sanshokuin doesn't know much about psychology, this situation still scares her a little.

Because Li Wei is an international student, he may not stay in Japan in the future. Moreover, for a wealthy person like Li Wei, studying at a high school is probably just for the experience. She is afraid that after leaving a deep mark on her life, Li Wei will suddenly disappear. If such a thing happens, she will not be able to accept it.

Li Wei smiled and said, "I'm willing for you to rely on me like this for the rest of your life, and being relied on by you is also a kind of happiness for me."

Sumireko Sanshokuin was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Li Wei-kun, will you stay in Japan in the future?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "That depends on where you are. I will stay by your side. Wherever you are, I will be. So, questions like whether I am in Japan or not should not be asked of me, but of Sumire herself."

Li Wei's blunt words left Sumireko Sanshokuin at a loss for words. She simply couldn't bring herself to refuse his burning affection.

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "Have you said that to any other girls, Li Weijun?"

Li Wei smiled and said, "I did."

Sumireko Sanshokuin thought to herself with a hint of jealousy, "Since you already have so many girls around you, Li Weijun, why do you still bother with me? Someone like me, who is not pretty, has a bad figure, and wears black-rimmed glasses, is simply not good enough for you, Li Weijun."

Li Wei laughed and said, "That's just your own opinion. In my eyes, you are an unparalleled beauty who can topple kingdoms. To keep you by my side, I'm capable of any despicable means. The despicable means I'm going to use now is to win you over with delicious food, so that you won't be able to eat anyone else's cooking after you leave me."

Li Wei's so-called despicable methods almost made Sumireko Sanshokuin burst out laughing; such despicable methods were simply too adorable.

Sanshokuin Sumireko laughed, "Li Weijun, are you really me? Such despicable methods are no match for me."

Sanshokuin Sumireko picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of tofu from the home-style vegetable and tofu soup, and put it in her mouth. Her eyes widened suddenly, and the delicious taste invigorated her.

The tofu itself has a tender and smooth texture, and the seasoning brings out its fresh and fragrant flavor, as well as the rich aroma of the fish soup. This complex flavor has distinct layers, yet they do not interfere with each other. The deliciousness explodes in her mouth, and she feels as if she has ascended to heaven, as if she is floating on the clouds, enjoying the warm sunshine, and her whole body becomes warm and cozy.

Li Wei applied his extraordinary power to cooking. Even in a top-tier culinary arena like "MasterChef Ninja," where dishes are everywhere, his dishes would be considered unparalleled. He could even win in a head-on confrontation with Liu Angxing. Such delicious food is a complete game-changer for the people of this world.

Li Wei laughed and said, "How about that? My despicable methods are pretty impressive, aren't they?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin sat with her legs together, twisting and turning in the chair, a look of pleasure on her face, her eyes narrowed. She was completely absorbed in the delicious food, and couldn't even hear what Li Wei was saying.

The food was so delicious it was like a game-changer; it had already won over Sumireko Sanshokuin with just her taste buds. Sumireko let out a long breath, looking at the various dishes on the table. Her chopsticks swept across the table like a whirlwind, and she kept stuffing food into her mouth, completely abandoning any semblance of modesty a girl should have. In the face of such delicious food, even a girl can't control her image.

Seeing this, Li Wei, arms crossed, smiled with satisfaction. His culinary tactics were not something everyone could withstand.

Chapter 1. A Difficult Decision

When the girl came to her senses, she found that all the plates on the table were empty, and her stomach was full, with her lower abdomen slightly bulging. She was usually very disciplined in her diet, and this was the first time she had ever eaten so much.

Sumireko Sanshokuin felt dizzy. After a person has eaten, blood is supplied to the stomach and intestines first to help the body digest the food. At this time, the brain will experience a slight lack of oxygen, so a person who has eaten will feel drowsy and want to lie down and rest immediately.

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "That's definitely a very despicable tactic. It's been several years since I've felt so full. It's a bit uncomfortable."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Now you know how amazing I am. Without me, you'll never be able to eat such delicious food again."

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "Li Weijun, how many girls have you used this method on?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "There's more than you can imagine."

Sumireko Sanshokuin felt a little jealous because she wasn't the only one who had experienced this. The thought of other girls being around Li Wei made her feel uncomfortable.

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "If that's the case, why didn't they come to Japan with you?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "Because this is my vacation. I finally have a time to relax, and they won't bother me with trivial matters."

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "Don't they care about things like this?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin was puzzled. After all, girls are usually very possessive, and she didn't know any girl who would be willing to share her man with other girls. At least, she didn't want to do that.

Li Wei smiled and said, "Not only did they not object to this, but they also got along well. As for why they were able to get along harmoniously, I'll keep that a secret for now."

Sumireko Sanshokuin leaned back in her chair, her heart filled with conflict. Li Wei was indeed exceptionally outstanding, one might say to the point of being astonishing. If she were to leave Li Wei, she would likely never find another boy like him in her life. Moreover, Li Wei's gentleness had captivated her, drawing her deeper and deeper into his charm.

The greatest tragedy in life is meeting someone too amazing when you're young. If you don't end up with them, then no matter who you meet in the future, you'll always compare them to that amazing person. And the more you compare, the more disheartened you become, because no one you meet later can compare to that amazing person.

Sumireko Sanshokuin had heard stories of elderly people who had experienced a stunning romance in their youth, but ultimately failed to stay together for various reasons. These elderly people remained unmarried for life. She originally thought such stories were just legends, but when it happened to her, she realized how painful it was.

Sumireko Sanshokuin whispered, "Li Weijun, meeting you was the luckiest thing in my life, and also the most unfortunate thing. I will never be able to forget you."

Li Wei, while clearing away the dishes, laughed and said, "Since you can't forget me, then you might as well see me every day. I'm a despicable person who won't give up until I get what I want. Once you meet me, Jinzi, you won't be able to escape."

Sumireko Sanshokuin puffed out her cheeks slightly and said, "You're too cunning, Li Wei-kun!"

Although Li Wei's words sounded threatening, like those of a perverted stalker, Sumireko Sanshokuin could still hear a deep sense of doting affection in them. This kind of sweetness, which was almost sickeningly sweet, was something she truly couldn't resist.

Li Wei laughed and said, "What's wrong with being a little cunning in pursuit of happiness? After all, this is a battlefield. In order to stand to the end on this battlefield, you can't do without using some ruthless tricks."

Li Wei knew that his actions would seem extremely evil to normal people, but this world is a dog-eat-dog world where the winner takes all and the loser is left to rot. Only those who win in the end can laugh. As for how the winner achieved their goal, no one cares.

Sumireko Sanshokuin sighed. She knew Li Wei wouldn't let her go, but for some reason, she didn't feel any resistance to it. In the past, when she encountered similar situations, she would feel fear and distress, but now, she just felt like she was enveloped in honey. This sweet feeling was so intense that she couldn't control herself.

Sanshokuin Sumireko said irritably, "Li Weijun, you're a scoundrel. I've seen through your true colors."

Li Wei revealed a smug smile and laughed, "Thank you for the compliment. In this world, if you play by the rules honestly, you'll only get crushed. So I'd rather be a rogue. If being a rogue can win your heart, I don't mind being even more of a rogue."

Sumireko Sanshokuin was helpless looking at Li Wei's shameless appearance. She was now disguised as a very plain and ordinary girl. She had been able to keep up with the disguise at school for so long without being discovered, which showed how inconspicuous she was. But unfortunately, Li Wei wasn't after her appearance at all. This made her feel helpless and guilty. She could be said to have deceived Li Wei.

After all, Li Wei wasn't like those vulgar men attracted to her looks. Right now, she was just an unremarkable country girl, yet Li Wei still doted on her so much. The guilt she felt spread, making her unsure how to face Li Wei. How would he feel when he discovered her true nature? Perhaps he would be very angry, feeling deceived. Thinking about this gave her a headache.

With his mind-reading abilities, Li Wei naturally understood what Sumireko Sanshokuin was thinking. This sense of guilt was beneficial to him. Moreover, what Sumireko Sanshokuin didn't know was that he had known her true nature from the beginning. In fact, if she were just an ordinary country girl, he wouldn't be so attentive. Li Wei didn't intend to deny the fact that he was attracted to good looks.

What's wrong with liking pretty girls? Just like girls like handsome boys, there's never a right answer to this kind of thing. Everyone can only follow their own feelings. Of course, the official political correctness must still be followed.

Sumireko Sanshokuin watched as Li Wei, carrying a plate, walked into the kitchen and began washing the dishes. She was overwhelmed with inner turmoil. Should she reject Li Wei, or accept him? Both choices would have their own consequences.

If she rejects Li Wei, she will remain unmarried for life, because after meeting him, her heart can no longer hold any other man. But if she accepts Li Wei, she must accept the reality of sharing him with other girls. Both choices are incredibly difficult to decide.

Chapter 1. Let's watch a movie together.

Sumireko Sanshokuin took out a wet wipe from the tissue pouch on the table and wiped it. Although she had difficulty with one leg, she could still do things within her power.

After wiping the table clean, Sumireko Sanshokuin, leaning on her cane, came to the kitchen door and said somewhat apologetically, "I accidentally ate all the food you made, Li Weijun. You haven't had dinner yet, Li Weijun. I'm sorry."

Li Wei was cleaning the dishes in the sink. As a Qi cultivator, he didn't need a dishwasher, but he couldn't reveal his secret for the time being, so he could only obediently wash the dishes.

Li Wei turned around and smiled, "I'll just make some more later. I'm very fast at cooking. For simple dishes, I can finish them in less than ten minutes."

Sumireko Sanshokuin asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Li Wei smiled and said, "Not for now, but I have a movie I'd like to watch. Would you like to watch it with me later?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin smiled and said, "No problem. Besides reading, I also like watching movies."

Compared to TV dramas, movies are more condensed and don't take up as much time. That's why Sumireko Sanshokuin prefers movies to TV dramas. She has seen many classic films of all kinds. Movies allow her to experience other people's lives from a god-like perspective, which is a wonderful feeling.

Sumireko Sanshokuin didn't stand for long before she felt her legs getting sore. Normally, she could support her body with both legs without any discomfort, but now that she could only put weight on one leg, the leg that was bearing the weight, as well as the armpit of the arm that was using the cane, were very sore. This forced her to obediently return to the sand and wait for Li Wei.

Li Wei simply made himself a bowl of noodles, thus making do with dinner. As a Qi cultivator, he no longer felt hunger like an ordinary person. For him, eating was merely a way to satisfy his cravings. Even if he really wanted to have a proper meal, he would use a gourmet tablecloth as an excuse to be lazy and cook for the girl himself, more to show his affection.

After finishing dinner, Li Wei went to the sofa and sat down next to Sanshokuin Sumireko, moving closer to the girl so that the two of them could lean against each other.

Sumireko Sanshokuin felt Li Wei's body temperature and was somewhat dazed. Such intimate interaction with a boy was something she had never dared to imagine before. She secretly glanced at Li Wei's profile. He was so handsome, perfect from every angle, as if it were the result of divine favoritism. It seemed the gods had casually molded ordinary people, but when creating Li Wei, they had put their whole heart into it.

Li Wei picked up the remote and said, "I'm going to change the channel."

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "Okay, but what movie should we watch?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "That's a secret. You'll find out when you start watching."

Smart TVs aren't very common in Japan; most households still use traditional cable TV. However, Japan has a lot of local channels, so there's a wide variety of programming available. With smart TVs, in addition to watching various local channels, you can also watch on-demand programs if you pay an annual fee.

When Li Wei switched the movie category to the horror subcategory, Sumireko Sanshokuin's expression turned serious. When Li Wei opened the specific interface of The Ring, Sumireko Sanshokuin had already tightly grasped Li Wei's hand. Just then, the bright lights in the living room went out. This sudden change made Sumireko Sanshokuin tremble and she gripped Li Wei's arm tightly.

Sumireko Sanshokuin whispered, "Could we change the movie? I'm a little scared."

Li Wei laughed and said, "That's the kind of feeling you want when watching horror movies, and the timing is perfect too."

Li Wei snapped his fingers, and all the curtains were drawn, instantly reducing indoor visibility to a minimum, leaving only the light from the television screen.

Sumireko Sanshokuin's voice trembled slightly as she said, "Watching a movie like this at a time like this will give me nightmares! Li Weijun, let's watch something lighthearted, anything but a horror movie."

Li Wei, who possesses the ability to read minds, can sense the girl's inner fears. Although Sumireko Sanshokuin enjoys watching movies, she mostly watches classic old films and never watches horror movies.

·Requesting flowers·· ······

Li Wei wouldn't intentionally scare Sumireko Sanshokuin. Such a thing could easily lower her favorability rating, and Li Wei didn't want to see that happen.

Li Wei said, "It's a real shame. Since you don't like horror movies, Jinzi, let's watch something else. Do you like old movies?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she didn't watch horror movies, it would be fine. She was genuinely afraid of horror movies. As someone with a very strong ability to make associations, once she watched a horror movie, a bunch of chaotic and terrifying images would appear in her mind. Having fallen for this trick before, she naturally didn't want to fall for it again.

... . ...

Li Wei switched the movie categories, moving from the horror movie category to the drama movie category. A large number of classic movies were listed, making both of them a little overwhelmed.

Li Wei said, "Then I'll just pick one randomly. This section doesn't have any horror content; it's all classic old movies from Europe and America."

Sumireko Sanshokuin smiled and said, "Then let's watch this Sinbad's Voyage Special Edition. The cover looks like it's from the 1970s. There are very few old movies like this nowadays."
