Upon opening the door, Lu Nan saw a portrait of Yotsuya Miko's father, with a small photo of a dog next to it.

Miko Yotsuya became depressed. She knelt down next to the photograph and whispered something to herself.

Lu Nan stood quietly, watching Yotsuya Miko's back, then walked over and knelt down beside her.

Lu Nan quietly placed the gift below the photo and said softly, "Nice to meet you, Uncle. This is a gift for you."

Mrs. Yotsuya, who was standing at the door, looked at the two kneeling together and felt that they were somewhat well-matched, just like she and her husband had been back then.

Honey, our daughter has grown up so much, can't you see?

In the living room, the old fox sat tremblingly on the counter, pretending to be a mascot, because an old father sitting in the living room was emanating an uncontrollable black aura, and his face was terrifyingly black.

Chapter 342 The Undisputed Scumbag

"How rude! She didn't even greet the male head of the household, didn't she?" Yotsuya Miko's father, Yotsuya Mamoru, said gloomily.

“Rude…” the large black dog behind him muttered repeatedly.

The old fox felt a cold sweat about to break out. Holy crap, how did these two old men end up together?

The old fox, who had benefited from the successful renovation of the shrine by a certain big shot, thought he had reached the pinnacle of his fox life and was preparing to return with a smug look on his face and brag to Yotsuya Miko.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lu Nan walk past Yotsuya Mamoru, and at the same time, Yotsuya Mamoru's expression turned even colder.

The old fox instantly understood what had happened. It turned out that the son-in-law had come to see his father-in-law, and the father-in-law was someone he couldn't even see.

This is really bad; if they start fighting right now, he wouldn't be surprised at all.

It was too late to run now, so the old fox could only sit on the counter pretending to be just a harmless doll, and secretly pray that the two of them wouldn't suddenly start fighting and kick him to death like a stray dog ​​on the street.

Mamoru Yotsuya looked up at the large black dog behind him and asked, "What is he doing now?"

The large black dog vanished like the wind, then slowly reappeared, bowing its head and saying, "A gift... You... Nice to meet you."

Yotsuya Mamoru's expression softened slightly: "Is that so... He was a polite fellow at first, but now?"

The large black dog disappeared, but did not return for a long time. Yotsuya Mamoru frowned, stood up and walked towards the room where his memorial tablet was placed.

He disliked this place; it reminded him of his family's tearful faces.

The big black dog was in that room. Mamoru Yotsuya could see it clearly, but he couldn't understand why it was crying.

Yotsuya Mamoru's gaze shifted to its small photograph, beneath which something seemed to be placed.

It was an exquisite collar with a dog tag that read: [François].

Yotsuya Mamoru was silent for a while, then sighed. Was this guy prepared beforehand?

He looked at his wife beside him, and sure enough, she was already on the verge of tears.

Mrs. Yotsuya's gaze fell on the necklace, then on Lu Nan, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Did Miko tell you?"

Lu Nan nodded: "When Miko was chatting with me, she mentioned that you had a pet dog that grew up with you during your childhood and didn't leave until your high school years. Miko said that you really liked that pet dog and treated it like family."

Lu Nan paused, then patted the head of the silly cat beside him: "I understand how you feel, so I prepared a gift for it too."

Mrs. Yotsuya wiped away her tears: "Oh dear, Koji, you really went to so much trouble... It will definitely be very happy."

Yotsuya Miko was a little confused. She did seem to have mentioned it, but it was only something she mentioned casually during a chat. How could her senior remember it like that?

Miko Yotsuya clutched her chest. Oh no, she wanted to throw herself into her senpai's arms right now and inhale his scent deeply...

"What a vixen." Yotsuya Mamoru squinted and muttered, "She's as experienced as a womanizer."

The large black dog shook its head repeatedly: "No... Lu... good people... like it."

Yotsuya Mamoru covered his forehead: "How come even you... Never mind, Kyosuke will definitely understand me anyway."

However, no one heard his complaints except for a certain real vixen. Even Yotsuya Miko was so focused on finding an opportunity to get close to Lu Nan that she neglected her old father.

Mrs. Yotsuya reached out and pulled the two of them up: "Alright, it's time to eat. Koji, just make yourself at home here, don't be shy."

Lu Nan nodded: "Okay, Auntie."

Mrs. Yotsuya looked at the two of them and felt they were a perfect match, and for a moment the way she looked at Lu Nan changed.

This young man is so pleasing to the eye; he's such a perfect match for my little Jianzi.

……

"That little road, how many people live in that family? What do they do? Do they have any...?"

At the dinner table, Mrs. Yotsuya served food to Lu Nan and Dai Miao while asking them questions, showing her increasing fondness for them.

Xiao Lu, this child, grew up without parents, worked hard, has a strong character and is ambitious, and will not have any conflicts with her mother-in-law in the future.

Although he already has two girlfriends, doesn't that just show that he's very popular, and he's probably also very caring?

Living with Dai Miao, he seems to be very good at taking care of children. He looks strong and capable. I don't quite understand what kind of profession a hunter is. Is it like those headhunting companies that recruit people everywhere?

Although he is still a college student, he is already working part-time and has a clear goal: to buy a house and settle down. What a wonderful son-in-law!

Mrs. Yotsuya was practically beaming with joy; her wonderful son-in-law had come to her from heaven while she was sitting at home.

"Scumbag." Mamoru Shinomiya pushed up his glasses.

He's an undisputed scumbag. This has nothing to do with his father-in-law's stance or anything like that. It's not simply because he dislikes Lu Nan; he just thinks this guy is a scumbag. Yes, that's all.

His gaze shifted to Kyosuke Yotsuya. It was something he couldn't interfere with, but he believed that Kyosuke would not let him down.

Mrs. Yotsuya enjoyed the conversation more and more, and immediately stood up: "Xiao Lu, you guys eat first, I'll go to the kitchen and cut some watermelon for you."

She rushed into the kitchen, leaving Yotsuya Miko somewhat bewildered. When did they get watermelons at home? How come she didn't know?

Lu Nan looked at Yotsuya Kyosuke beside him. He was poking at the rice grains in his rice with his chopsticks, seemingly thinking about something, his little face full of seriousness.

"Unhappy?" Lu Nan asked in a low voice.

Kyosuke Yotsuya subconsciously moved a little further away and shook his head. He was still a fifth-grader, which didn't mean he didn't understand anything. On the contrary, he had already figured it out.

Both his mother and sister liked this boy surnamed Lu, but he only felt uncomfortable.

Lu Nan took something out of his pocket and quietly waved it next to Yotsuya Kyosuke's face from the other side.

Kyosuke Yotsuya was immediately drawn to it, and froze when he saw what it was.

It's a PSP, and a new one at that.

Kyosuke Yotsuya asked cautiously, "Is this...is this for me?"

Lu Nan chuckled: "Of course, everyone should get a gift, right? But remember not to go too far."

Kyosuke Yotsuya took the PSP and hugged it to his chest, saying somewhat awkwardly, "Even so, don't even think about it..."

Lu Nan nodded knowingly: "Of course, after all, Kyosuke is the pillar of the family... By the way, Kyosuke, do you know about diving?"

Kyosuke Yotsuya nodded with some confusion.

Lu Nan smiled mysteriously.

Chapter 343 Father-in-law Meets Son-in-law (Bonus Chapter for Bounty, Thank You All)

Lu Nan whispered, "Hey, I'm in the diving club. Kyosuke, have you ever thought about going diving?"

Kyosuke Yotsuya's eyes widened: "Really?"

Lu Nan chuckled: "Of course it's true. You can ask your sister, she knows too. Besides, I'm currently staying at a dive shop. If Kyosuke is interested, how about I take you diving sometime?"

Kyosuke Yotsuya was momentarily captivated, but quickly snapped back to reality. Unfortunately, a short while later, he grabbed Lu Nan and asked, "What's diving like? I heard you can touch sharks, is that true?"

Lu Nan nodded: "Diving is like swimming in outer space, strolling in a completely new world... Sharks, some dive shops advertise that you can touch sharks, and of course it's real."

Kyosuke Yotsuya swallowed hard: "Ayanokouji, when can we go scuba diving?"

Lu Nan patted Yotsuya Kyosuke's head: "At the very least, it has to be after your middle school entrance exam, okay? So you have to work hard. If your grades aren't good and make your sister unhappy, I won't take you."

Kyosuke Yotsuya saluted: "I guarantee I'll get it done! Brother-in-law!"

Yotsuya Miko couldn't hold back any longer. Her face flushed red as she whispered, "Kyosuke, don't shout like that! What are you two talking about so secretly?"

Lu Nan smiled and waved his hand: "It's nothing, I was just talking about diving."

Kyosuke Yotsuya glanced timidly at Miko Yotsuya, and when he saw that Miko Yotsuya had quieted down as soon as her brother-in-law spoke, he was immediately amazed. "Damn, my brother-in-law is awesome!"

He immediately hardened up and tugged at Lu Nan's sleeve: "Brother-in-law, that's just how my sister is, she's shy. By the way, tell me about that diving thing..."

Mamoru Yotsuya silently stood up and walked to the window.

He looked at his wife humming happily in the kitchen, at his daughter blushing and secretly watching Lu Nan at the dining table, at his son calling him "brother-in-law" and at the dog behind Lu Nan wagging its tail like a windmill, and fell completely silent.

He reached into his pocket, wanting to smoke, but then suddenly remembered that he seemed to be dead and could no longer smoke.

This doesn't make sense, does it? If I remember correctly, this kid hasn't even been here for an hour, right?

How much time did I spend dealing with Touko's (Touko Yakumo, Miko Yotsuya's mother) family back then? It seems like it took about a month…

For a moment, I didn't know whether I should be angry or become an apprentice...

Yotsuya Mamoru's gaze suddenly fell on the old fox who had been pretending to be a doll on the counter.

The old fox suddenly stiffened and reached out a hand to greet him.

Yotsuya Mamoru appeared in front of the old fox in an instant, lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Old fox, if I remember correctly, you said you made a contract with that guy so he can see you, right?"

The old fox nodded shakily.

If Yotsuya Shinnomoku is happy, then things will be much easier.

……

"You mean Yotsuya Miko's father wants to talk to me?" Lu Nan, who had just come out of the restroom, was blocked in the corridor by the old fox.

The old fox nodded repeatedly: "Yes, he said he wanted to meet you on the balcony, um... I'll be the translator then."

Lu Nan wasn't surprised. He had considered this possibility before coming. Even if Yotsuya Miko's father didn't come to find him, he would find an opportunity to talk to him alone.

After all, we need to get to the bottom of the matter of seeing the child, and we also need to provide an explanation.

"Okay, I understand, let's go." Lu Nan wiped his hands clean, whispered a few words to Dai Miao, and then smiled and said that he had to go out to make a phone call. He walked out of the room amidst the reluctant gazes of the Yotsuya family.

After climbing over the wall and onto the balcony, Lu Nan saw the old fox sitting upright and giving him a wink, indicating that Yotsuya Miko's father was right across from him.

Lu Nan said to the old fox, "Could you ask Uncle Yotsugu if he's afraid of pain?"
