Crossover Anime: Miss, please don't do this, I still have a silly cat to raise.

Senior Ashi pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "Lu Nan... we understand your feelings, but this is really..."

“Hey!” Lu Nan shook his head: “You don’t understand, seniors. If you hadn’t brought me to Grand Blue back then, I might still be wandering around or doing odd jobs, let alone going to school, participating in club activities, and drinking with you seniors.”

"But we are just..."

"In other words, without my seniors, I might have suffered for a long time, and I wouldn't have had so many happy memories."

Lu Nan took a deep breath: "Just consider it as a way for me to stay in the club with peace of mind, senior."

Senior Shi looked at the serious Lu Nan, then suddenly smiled and ruffled his hair: "Seriously, alright! Since it's our lovely junior's request... have you guys decided where to go for fun?!"

"Roar!!"

Chapter 415 Departure

Lu Nan turned his head with a smile to look at Sister Nana and Uncle Kotegawa.

"Uncle, you know, I used to..."

Uncle Kotegawa raised his hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, I give up."

He looked at Lu Nan with some relief: "I will also take a good rest. I'll take Nana to Palau to see Sayaka. It's been a while since we last met."

Lu Nan nodded in satisfaction. "Hey, that's more like it."

Before long, the seniors had decided on the location and number of people, and then came over to inform Lu Nan.

If we exclude economic reasons, the places that our predecessors went to were all quite unusual.

"So, what about you?" Lu Nan asked Geng Ping, "Is there anywhere you'd like to go?"

Kohei rubbed his chin: "As for me... to be honest, I don't really have anywhere I want to go. I kind of want to stay home and sleep... pfft—"

Kohei was knocked unconscious by a stomach punch from Yoshihara Aina. Yoshihara Aina turned her head and smiled, saying, "Thank you, Lunan. He said he really wants to go."

Lu Nan twitched his lips: "Um... then I'll assume you two are together?"

Yoshihara Aina suddenly blushed and fidgeted, "Oh, what are you saying? I didn't say anything... I just..."

Lu Nan rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to the two of them, and turned to ask Hamaoka Azusa, who was perched on his back, "Azusa-neechan, what about you? Have you decided where to go with me?"

Hamaoka Azusa chuckled as she played with Lu Nan's ears: "Oh dear~ I really want to keep you company, but I already have plans."

She waved her phone screen: "Chika has decided to take me, Rin, and Miko on a trip! Guess who wasn't invited?"

"It can't be me, can it?" Lu Nan said helplessly.

"Bingo~ It's you! If you go, it won't be a vacation anymore." Hamaoka Azusa casually pulled Hanami over: "So this time you'll take Hanami with you on your trip."

Hamaoka Azusa patted Lunan and Banami on the shoulder: "Have fun, don't let me down."

"I don't know what you mean by disappointment, but... okay." Lu Nan nudged Banami: "Where does Banami want to go?"

Without hesitation, Banami answered, "Namihama City."

Lu Nan was taken aback. The answer was so decisive; it seemed she had already thought it through: "Okay, then I..."

"Lunan!!" Iori ran over excitedly: "I heard from my senior that they give out free eggs here, is that true?"

Lu Nan sometimes really felt that Iori's brain might have been squeezed by something: "No eggs, but a free trip is available. But don't you have money now?"

Iori thought for a moment: "That's true... It's a pity, it seems I won't be able to get any benefits this time. After all, I've already said it, and your concept of treating and my concept of spending money are different. This time I'm determined to make a big splash in terms of goodwill."

Iori rubbed his hands together, looking quite excited. After a while, he sighed and said, "If I had won ten million instead of twenty thousand, I could have treated everyone to a trip."

"You're dreaming again. When it comes to the lottery, you don't win the numbers on the ticket, you win the numbers on the back of your ID."

"But isn't this a scratch-off lottery ticket?"

"Oh, same here! By the way, where's Chisa?"

Iori pointed behind her: "Nanaka-nee pulled me back as if she wanted to say something."

Lu Nan suddenly realized something and revealed a wicked smile: "Oh, I know that. Nana-chan must have persuaded her to go to Palau with them to visit Aunt Sayaka."

"What?!" Iori was shocked. If Chisa really agreed, wouldn't his entire plan be ruined? No way!

Watching Iori run off in a hurry again, Lu Nan thought of Yoshihara Aina and the other two.

Hey, why is this club full of nagging old women...?

Seeing Banami beside him, Lu Nan looked up and thought, "Oh, so it's me too. It's alright then."

……

Lu Nan hummed a song as he filled a glass with iced cola. "Going to work feels so different after I've achieved financial freedom. It's like playing a game."

Sure enough, Lu Nan rushed over as soon as the restaurant opened for trial operation. He missed the days of outsmarting customers. Now that he wasn't afraid of being fired, he could just dump cold dishes on the heads of any brainless customers he encountered.

But it's not that bad yet, since the manager treats him quite well and he even gets free afternoon tea.

Save your money, spend it wisely, and ride your bike to the bar.

Lu Nan doesn't know if this is the secret to getting rich, but it's definitely the secret to keeping a happy mood.

"What's wrong? You seem to be in a good mood? Did you find money on the street?" Sakura Tokushima opened the door and saw Lu Nan looking so cheerful. She was really a little surprised. Why did this guy seem so enthusiastic today?

Lu Nan let out a smug sigh: "No, it's just that something happy happened."

"Something good to hear?" Sakurako Busujima also took a glass of iced cola: "Damn, you've lost weight? Looks like that gym is really amazing."

"Uh... cough cough, let's not talk about this." Lu Nan guiltily changed the subject: "It's just that I'm going on a trip with some friends in a few days."

This is the first time I've traveled purely without any specific purpose in mind, so I'm going to have a blast!

"Is that so?" Sakurako Busujima raised an eyebrow and leaned back in her chair. "Traveling costs a lot of money, so don't try to impress others by spending more than you can afford."

Sakurako Busujima brushed her hair aside to cover her ears, which were inexplicably red: "Of course, if someone is short of money and comes to ask the great Busujima-sama for help, then the Busujima-sama is not unwilling to lend a hand."

Lu Nan waved his hand: "No need for Lord Poison Island to trouble himself."

After saying that, Lu Nan stood up, stretched, and continued to outwit and outmaneuver the customers.

Sakurako Busujima looked down at her hands and hooked her little finger.

Isn't that too much trouble...?

……

Time flew by, and the agreed-upon time arrived.

Banami, grimacing, dragged the foaming-white-mouthed Lu Nan out of the airport terminal. Heaven knows how she got through that journey.

She was quite pleased with herself for a while when Lu Nan collapsed on her to rest due to airsickness on the plane, but her feelings changed after they arrived at their destination.

It's not that I find it troublesome, but carrying such a big Lu Nan is really heavy.

Banami sighed. If it weren't for the silly cat helping to push the luggage, she probably would have been even more flustered.

Thankfully, there's Dai Miao here; it's true that every family needs someone reliable.

Just then, Banami saw a familiar suitcase slide past her, rushing straight down a slope, accompanied by a confused meow from the cat.

Seeing that his expression had changed, Banai quickly dragged Lu Nan along to chase after them.

"Dummy meow!!!"

Chapter 416 Inside the Car

Lu Nan suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up: "I! Am resurrected!"

Banami, who was drinking water, was startled by the noise and choked, coughing repeatedly.

"Look at you, you don't even pay attention when you drink water." Lu Nan reached out and patted her back repeatedly.

"Cough cough! Who do you think is to blame for this!" Banai glared at Lu Nan speechlessly, then pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth.

Lu Nan looked around and saw that they were sitting on a bench in a small park, with Dai Miao sitting on a suitcase licking an ice cream.

"How did you get here?" Lu Nan asked curiously.

Seeing that Banai had tightened the screws on her cup, she rolled her eyes: "What do you think? Mr. Lu, who lost consciousness as soon as he boarded the plane?"

Lu Nan smiled sheepishly: "Thank you for your hard work."

Banami pouted, "It's not exactly hard work... Where are we going now?"

Lu Nan glanced at the time; it was only a little past nine in the morning, so there was still plenty of time.

"Hmm... Let's rent a car now, go for a drive, find a nice beach to swim in, have lunch at a beach restaurant, and as for the afternoon... let's talk about that later." Lu Nan grinned broadly. "We have plenty of time, don't we?"

Banami nodded. Yes, there's still plenty of time.

I took a taxi straight to the car rental shop, because Lu Nan doesn't have a driver's license and can't drive, so I'll have to ask Banai for advice on that.

Banami randomly chose an automatic car, and the two of them and the cat hit the road.

Lu Nan sat in the passenger seat with the window open, and the sea breeze blowing in made his hair flutter like seaweed.

Dai Miao enjoyed a row of back seats all by herself, comfortably lying on the seat with her legs crossed, playing on her phone. She had never fought such a luxurious battle before.

"Hey, cut down on your phone, or you'll get nearsighted and won't be able to see the dragon properly when you get back, and you'll get beaten up by Brother Dongfeng!" Lu Nan said, turning around.

Domino sat up with a start. As the leader of the Palicoes in Flame Village, if Dongfeng were to really beat him up, no one in the entire village would plead for him, not even the leader, because if the leader dared to plead for him, he would be beaten up as well.

Seeing the dazed and restrained look on the rearview mirror, Banai chuckled: "Alright, Lunan, you said you were going back. You're not going to get beaten up now, and you can just be a little more careful, right?"

The silly cat nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

Lu Nan sighed and rubbed the silly cat's head: "Okay, but you should look out the window more often after playing on your phone for too long. The view here is quite nice."

As Banami drove, she glanced at Lu Nan in the passenger seat out of the corner of her eye. She suddenly wondered if things would be the same if she married Lu Nan.

After getting married, we'll go on a road trip in a small car. My husband will sit in the passenger seat, and my cat and child will sit in the back. It'll definitely be a lively trip!

Just thinking about this made Banami unable to control the corners of her mouth.

Lu Nan caught the corners of someone's mouth that couldn't be suppressed: "So happy? What made you think of something good?"

Banami stuck out her tongue: "It's nothing, how can I not be happy when I'm on vacation?"

"Hehe, that makes sense." Lu Nan turned to look out the window.

The azure sea has the superpower to make people forget their troubles.
