What's with this awkward atmosphere...?

Just as Lu Nan was pondering, a figure gradually appeared on the sofa next to him.

"Uncle, you're here too." Lu Nan greeted him with a smile.

"Mm," Yotsuya Mamoru responded.

The two grown men were frozen in place on the sofa, completely motionless.

"that……"

"Uncle..."

The two were taken aback, then said in unison, "You go first."

Then they fell into a tacit silence.

Yotsuya Mamoru smiled helplessly: "I never thought you'd feel embarrassed at times."

Lu Nan wanted to say something, but strictly speaking, this was the first time his son-in-law had visited, so it was inevitably a bit awkward.

Yotsuya Mamoru patted Lu Nan on the shoulder: "What's there to be embarrassed about now? We'll be family sooner or later."

Lu Nan nodded: "You're right."

Yotsuya Mamoru was extremely satisfied. Yes, that's it! It's just right!

This is more like a normal scene when a father-in-law and son-in-law meet!

"Honestly, I'm relieved to have Miko in your care." Mamoru Yotsuya smiled and pushed up his glasses. "You should eat more later, your aunt's cooking is excellent."

"Okay, I definitely won't be polite then." Lu Nan asked with some curiosity, "Uncle, your skills have improved again? You can even manifest your true form now?"

Yotsuya Mamoru's face darkened. What was this guy saying? What did he mean by "manifestation"? He made him sound like a monster.

Chapter 442 The Couple's Combined Deception Technique

"It's a strange story," Yotsuya Mamoru thought for a moment. "It all started when my wife accompanied Miko to see that old woman, Saegusa."

"When they arrived there, they saw Granny Sanzhi chatting with a man. As soon as the man saw Jianzi, he frowned, made a few finger gestures, and was overjoyed. He insisted on taking Jianzi as his true disciple."

Lu Nan raised an eyebrow: "And then?"

"It seems that Jianzi knows that person and has agreed. Recently, Jianzi goes to Grandma Sanzhi's place to study with him as soon as she gets out of school."

“He came by a couple of days ago, saying he wanted to settle a matter on his disciple’s mind. Then he found me, taught me a few spells, and talked about some ways to nourish the soul. I’m not really a bound spirit anymore. I just need to stay with Touzi at all times.”

Lu Nan suddenly thought of something: "Uncle, is the man you're talking about the one who only has one eyebrow, and it's thick?"

Yotsuya Mamoru looked at Lu Nan with some surprise: "You know him too?"

Lu Nan nodded: "I have some recollection. Granny Sanzhi once said that if there was really no other way, she could help us find this master. He is said to be a very powerful person."

Yotsuya Mamoru nodded: "He is indeed very impressive."

As he spoke, Mamoru Yotsuya said with some emotion, "To be honest, I'm already very satisfied with things as they are now. I have to thank you, Ryunan, for all of this. If it weren't for you, Miko might not have been able to hold on any longer."

“If something happens to Miko, then Touko and Kyosuke will also…” Yotsuya Mamoru was silent for a moment before smiling and saying, “So, thank you very much.”

Lu Nan waved his hand and laughed, "What are you saying, Uncle? It's what I should do. I like seeing Zi. Her happiness is more important than anything else."

Yotsuya Mamoru looked at Lu Nan's back with a mocking expression.

Lu Nan turned around and saw Yotsuya Miko holding a fruit platter, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Yotsuya Miko placed the fruit platter in front of Lu Nan and murmured, "Fruit, fruit platter."

After saying that, he fled into the kitchen.

Yotsuya Mamoru sighed, "It's true what they say, daughters grow up and leave home."

The fruit platter wasn't even placed in the middle. Even if he can't eat it, he can still look at it, right?

It was laid out right in front of Lu Nan, so what about me?

……

"Xiao Lu, eat more. Here, this spare rib is for you too."

Lu Nan looked at the small mountain of food in her bowl and didn't know how to start eating: "Okay, okay, thank you, Auntie. That's enough, that's really enough. I'm not being polite."

Lu Nan was somewhat helpless; how was he supposed to eat this...?

Just as Lu Nan was about to share some of the burden with Dai Miao, he realized that Dai Miao's bowl had somehow become the same size as his.

"Honey, could you pick up a piece of pork rib for me?" Mamoru Yotsuya whispered.

Mrs. Yotsuya didn't even turn her head: "Don't you have hands? Go and grab it yourself."

Yotsuya Mamoru silently shed tears; this world is too realistic.

……

After dinner, Mrs. Yotsuya brought out a cake from the kitchen. It didn't look big, but it was very delicate.

The lights were turned off, plunging the room into darkness.

The candle flickered and lit itself, casting a glow that made Miko Yotsuya's face flush red.

"See your son and make a wish," Mrs. Yotsuya said softly.

Everyone gathered around Yotsuya Miko, looking at her.

Yotsuya Miko wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded.

She closed her eyes amidst her family and love and began to make a wish.

What wish did Yotsuya Miko make? Of course, she can't say, otherwise it won't come true.

Yotsuya Miko opened her eyes, which had been filled with tears for some time, and the tears slid down her cheeks the moment she opened them.

call--

A soft breath was heard, and the candle was blown out, signifying that Yotsuya Miko is now a proper adult.

"Congratulations to my daughter Miko on her eighteenth birthday." Mrs. Yotsuya smiled, dipped her finger in a little cream, and smeared it on Miko's nose.

"Thank you, Mom," Miko Yotsuya said with a smile, wiping away her tears.

She is so happy now.

"Time for cake!" Kyosuke raised both hands.

The cake wasn't big, just enough for everyone, and Old Fox and François also got one.

The old fox ate with great gusto: "Mmm~mmm~animal cream? Not bad at all."

François's cultivation level wasn't high enough to allow him to eat yet, so he paced anxiously on the ground.

Lu Nan was eating cake when a hand suddenly smeared cream on his face.

Lu Nan was taken aback and turned to look. Yotsuya Miko was smiling, with white cream still on her index finger.

"I'll share some of my good luck with you," Miko Yotsuya said with a smile.

Lu Nan reached out, dipped his finger in some cream, and smeared it on Yotsuya Miko's lips: "Then I'll give you my blessing too."

Kyosuke Yotsuya and the cat exchanged a glance, inexplicably feeling a sense of shared misfortune.

……

"Then I won't bother you any longer, Auntie. Daimiao and I will head out now..."

"Hey! Wait a minute!" Mrs. Yotsuya stopped Lu Nan, who was about to leave: "Lu Nan, Auntie has something to tell you."

Lu Nan was taken aback: "Ah, okay, Auntie, please tell me."

Mrs. Yotsuya coughed twice, and Yotsuya Mamoru came over and the two stood together.

“Koji, you know, Auntie’s husband died a few years ago, but now he’s back to life, so…” Mrs. Yotsuya looked at Yotsuya Mamoru.

Mamoru Yotsuya said with a serious expression, "So we're planning to go on a trip with Kyosuke, but you know..."

Mrs. Yotsuya looked worried: "Miko can see, it's really dangerous for her to be home alone without us! What if some strange thing sneaks in! So..."

Yotsuya Mamoru said somewhat embarrassedly, "Could you please take care of Miko for a couple of days? Just two or three days, we'll be back soon! You know..."

Mrs. Yotsuya buried her head in Yotsuya Mamoru's chest: "We haven't seen each other for so long, sob sob..."

She cried while secretly glancing at Lu Nan to see his reaction.

Lu Nan was stunned by this smooth little combo from the couple. One of them finished speaking and the other immediately followed, their cooperation was extremely tacit. You could say that they were a couple of years.

"Um... well, I have no objection to Uncle and Aunt, but I don't know about Miko's side..." Before Lu Nan could finish speaking, Yotsuya Miko came over.

“I have no objection. Mom and Dad are going out to play, but someone needs to watch the house. Kyosuke is too young, so I have to do it.” Yotsuya Miko looked righteous, but then became a little vulnerable and grabbed Lu Nan’s arm: “But senpai… I’m still a little scared if I’m alone. After all, Mom, Dad, Kyosuke and François aren’t here. What if I get into danger?”

Yotsuya Miko looked at Lu Nan, her face full of hope: "Senior, you'll help me, right?"

Chapter 443 You are my real birthday present

“Yes, yes…” Mrs. Yotsuya patted Lu Nan’s shoulder in surprise as soon as he finished speaking.

"Good! As expected of you, Xiao Lu! You're a true friend!"

Lu Nan looked at Mrs. Yotsuya with some shock.

Mamoru Yotsuya chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, your aunt... she used to be a delinquent."

Mrs. Yotsuya waved her hand: "A true hero doesn't dwell on past glories, so it's settled then! Kyosuke! Come here!"

Kyosuke Yotsuya walked over in a daze, and then Mrs. Yotsuya grabbed him by the back of the neck and dragged him away.

"We're short on time and have a lot to do, so we'll be going now! Goodbye, Xiaolu~"

The moment Mrs. Yotsuya shouted those words, she had already jumped into a taxi with Kyosuke Yotsuya, and the taxi sped away so fast that even the taillights were no longer visible.

Lu Nan had been completely bewildered from the very beginning. He had a vague feeling that he had fallen into some kind of trap, and now it seemed that it really was.

"Senior? Don't stand there, it's too hot outside." Yotsuya Miko didn't seem sad at all, like she was the only one left who hadn't gone on her family trip. On the contrary, she seemed quite happy.

"Okay," Lu Nan replied and led the silly cat inside.

For some reason, even though the house was still the same house and the facilities inside were exactly the same, the atmosphere suddenly seemed to have become strange, as if some mysterious pink bubbles were floating in the air.
