Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Can't talk about work, so we talk about life?

Two people in their forties chatting about life with a teenager? Regardless of the age, wealth, or social status difference, their lives are definitely not from the same world, right?

So, shall we talk about studying?

Please, they are guests. Two elderly people in their forties are talking to them about studying. Are they testing the younger generation's homework?

Kyoko frowned, feeling embarrassed for the first time.

After all, she couldn't put on airs as an elder when facing Mo Mo, but she could still ask questions as an elder when facing Sugo Nobuyuki.

Of the four, only Mo Mo remained completely at ease. In fact, the initiative was in Mo Mo's hands; if he had started a conversation, no matter what he said, Kyoko Yuuki and Shozo Yuuki would have definitely joined in. However, Mo Mo chose to remain silent.

It's fine if there's an awkward silence; Mo Mo doesn't plan to talk to Kyoko Yuuki and Shozo Yuuki right now.

"Oh, by the way, Momo, may I open the souvenir you sent?"

Asuna noticed the awkwardness and immediately tried to lighten the mood. Her voice was magical and instantly dissipated the awkward atmosphere.

"Of course, after all, it's a souvenir, so it's already yours, Asuna."

Momo's enthusiastic response to Asuna caused Kyoko Yuuki and Shozo Yuuki to exchange a glance, each having their own plan.

The main focus of this invitation wasn't them, but the two children.

Especially Kyoko, seeing that Asuna, who usually doesn't like to interact with the opposite sex, showed no resistance to Momo at all and even called Momo by his name directly—this was completely inappropriate from both a personal and social perspective, but it seemed so natural between the two children.

Having realized this, the two decided it was best to talk less.

Asuna opened the gift box and exclaimed in surprise, for inside were plump, fragrant black truffles.

Even though the Yusei family was wealthy, they were taken aback. This box of black truffles was clearly of exceptional quality, worth at least several million yen, or even tens of millions of yen.

The price of the souvenir made even the last bit of nostalgia Kyoko felt for Sugo Nobuyuki disappear.

022, want to come to my room?

With Asuna starting the conversation, the atmosphere of the meeting became much more relaxed, and since the truffles that Momo brought were top-quality ingredients, the topic naturally shifted to food.

This relieved the two heads of the Jie family, as they could all find common ground in the topic of food. The Jie family had naturally tasted many delicacies, and for Mo Mo, food was also one of his great hobbies during his previous life of a hundred years.

She knew all the different flavors and cooking methods like the back of her hand. Asuna, who had been trying to lighten the mood, became genuinely engrossed. She seemed to follow Momo's narration, her mind wandering to all corners of the world, visiting famous historical sites and tasting exotic cuisines.

Sada, the maid of the Yusei family, also accepted the truffle. Fortunately, although truffles are a top-grade ingredient, the most classic and traditional way to eat them is to slice them thinly and eat them raw. So there was no need to make things difficult for the maid who was holding an ingredient more precious than gold for the first time.

"Asuna, since you're so interested, how about I take you on a world tour sometime so we can try all sorts of delicious food? Not to brag, but I'm not only a foodie, my cooking skills are top-notch too!"

Asuna's eyes lit up, and she instinctively wanted to agree. The prospect of traveling the world and tasting all kinds of delicious food was a huge temptation for her, who had always studied hard since childhood.

However, a sliver of reason brought her back to her senses, and she finally understood the true meaning behind Mo Mo's invitation.

She wanted to travel with Momo, without any interference from others, just the two of them traveling together.

Upon realizing this, Asuna blushed immediately. She stammered, wanting to refuse, but also feeling somewhat reluctant.

The Yuuki couple, who were watching from the sidelines, exchanged a glance, and a hint of a smile appeared in Yuuki Kyoko's eyes. Originally, she had wondered if this Yagyu Momo was simply attracted to their daughter's looks, but now it seemed that Yagyu Momo's words and knowledge proved that he was not a spoiled brat.

At the same time, as a woman, she could also sense her daughter's affection for this boy she had only recently met, without any wariness or resistance. If it weren't for her final rationality, she might have already agreed to run away with him.

While feeling a sense of helplessness, Kyoko Yuki also felt a sense of relief for her daughter. If her daughter really did find happiness, she would definitely support her.

If we set aside Kyoko Yuki's obsession with the word "elite," her love for her daughter is no less than that of any other mother.

"This... Mo Mo, I really..."

"Why not?"

At this moment, Yuuki Shozo spoke up, saying, "Asuna, you're turning sixteen soon. You've been studying hard at school and have achieved good results. However, broadening your horizons is also extremely important. Since the chairman has invited you, this is a good opportunity."

Asuna looked at her father in surprise, completely unable to believe that he would allow his daughter to travel with a boy.

Asuna is also very intelligent and emotionally intelligent. She hadn't thought about it in this direction before, but her father's statement made her immediately understand what was going on.

What exactly is Liu Sheng Momo, the boy she has developed feelings for, in her father's eyes...?

Could this lunch be...?

Asuna's blush deepened, and she lowered her head. She had already realized this when Yuuki Shozo introduced Sugo Nobuyuki to her before, but unlike last time, when she only felt disgust, this time she felt shy.

Stealing a glance, Asuna saw Mo Mo looking at her with a playful smile, which made her even more embarrassed and annoyed. She thought to herself, "So this guy already knew all along!"

In fact, Mo Mo not only knew about it, but he also basically orchestrated it.

Kyoko Yuuki glanced at her husband in surprise, not expecting him to trust Yagyu Momo so much. Despite her lingering doubts, she chose to believe her husband, as Yuuki Shozo held the highest and absolute authority in the household.

"Master, Madam, may we serve the dishes now?"

Just then, the servant Sada came over and broke the silence, and Yuki Akira nodded in agreement.

Compared to the lively atmosphere just now, the atmosphere at lunch was much more subdued, mainly because Asuna kept her head down, her face flushed, and ate quietly.

Fortunately, they managed to start a conversation, and as everyone enjoyed the truffles, Mo Mo achieved his goal. He would occasionally bring up the topic of truffles, which prevented the lunch from becoming completely silent.

"How shameless! Is it fun for two grown men to gang up on a little girl?"

Reimu Hakurei sat atop Momo's head, observing the entire scene with cold indifference, her anger practically written all over her face.

Mo Mo couldn't speak, so he could only respond with his mind, saying, "I'm not angry, am I? Besides, it was my dear uncle who did all this. It's only a matter of time before Asuna realizes all this, isn't it?"

"Anyway, you always have an excuse. I can't be bothered with you anymore."

After lunch, Asuna seemed to have calmed down, but she still didn't dare to look at Momo's face.

Asuna.

"Huh? Yes!"

Yuki Shozo called Asuna's name again, which startled Asuna slightly, and she quickly responded.

“Kyoko and I are too far older than you. If it weren’t for you, the chairman might think we were deliberately ignoring him.”

"No, no..."

"Not at all, Uncle and Aunt are in their prime. If there's anything to say, it's just that my knowledge is too limited to bring up any interesting topics."

Momo took the blame, and Asuna breathed a slight sigh of relief. She thought she was going to be blamed, and looked at Momo with gratitude.

Mo Mo winked mischievously.

Having just breathed a sigh of relief, Asuna felt an even greater sense of relief as she watched Momo blink.

"Chairman, you're too kind. It's our lack of preparation. Kyoko and I discussed it and decided to let you young people chat on your own. The Chairman and Asuna were having a great time chatting just now, so we won't be here and get in the way."

Kyoko looked at her husband with some surprise; it was hardly the way they had discussed it. She stared at Momo for a second, then made her decision to support her husband.

“That’s right, Asuna. You young people should have a proper chat. You’re hosting Yagyu-kun on our behalf, so don’t be impolite.”

The pressure from her parents instantly made Asuna serious, and she immediately recalled Yagyu Momo's identity, an identity that the entire Yuushi family looked up to.

“Okay, I’ll take care of it. Momosang, please come with me.”

"Call me Momo, okay, Asuna? We're friends, right?"

Watching the two leave, Kyoko sighed and said, "Although you think highly of him, doesn't it seem a bit too fast? Do you really trust him that much?"

"Don't worry, he is absolutely trustworthy."

After all, with a vow testified by the gods, Momo would certainly keep his promise.

Asuna breathed a sigh of relief as she led Momo out of the restaurant, but she still felt immense pressure from both her parents' combined efforts.

Where are we going?

"what!"

Asuna gasped as she breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, where was she taking Momo?

Asuna turned around stiffly, forcing a smile, and said, "How about we do it in the living room..."

"What are you doing? Watching TV?"

"Hahaha……"

Asuna chuckled dryly, suddenly realizing that this task was much more difficult than she had imagined.

No, it is extremely difficult.

"How about...we..."

Asuna racked her brains, then was shocked to find that she really didn't know what to do.

"Don't be so nervous. Now that your uncle and aunt are gone, I am Momo, not Liusheng Momo. We will just do whatever you do."

"Aside from resting, I usually study..." Asuna could never say such a thing right now. Should she ask Momo to study with her?

This doesn't look like entertaining guests at all.

Asuna lowered her head.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

"Now, you are Mo Mo, not the eldest son of the Yagyu family, nor my father's chairman, right?"

Mo Mo grinned and said, "That's right!"

"Then... then come with me!"

Asuna reached out and grabbed Momo's sleeve, leading her straight upstairs to her room.

Mo Mo was also slightly surprised, and Reimu Hakurei above him was also pouting, even more displeased.

Asuna let go of her hand, pushed open the door, and turned back somewhat awkwardly, saying, "Since... we're friends, then let's chat in my room. But I don't have anything for entertainment here."

Momo smiled again, a warm smile that relieved Asuna. Then, Momo waved his hand dramatically and said, "Well then, excuse me, may I come in?"

"Good... good!"

Asuna entered the room and hurriedly tried to move her chair over for Momo, but Momo casually sat on the floor and said, "I don't want to sit on that kind of thing. It makes me feel very restricted. Besides, isn't sitting on tatami mats a Japanese tradition?"

After saying that, Momo stretched and said, "Ah, I'm exhausted! Pretending to be sophisticated in front of elders is torture! Alright, Asuna, don't look so surprised. I've already said that I am Momo now, and you are Asuna. We are just friends."

"As for your uncle and aunt's instructions, as long as you don't kick me out, I'll definitely give you a perfect score!"

After saying that, Mo Mo actually lay down on the floor, rested her head on her arm, closed her eyes, and seemed to be going to sleep.

Asuna's surprise vanished, and she chuckled. Instead of moving a chair, she knelt on the ground and laughed, "You're really strange. You have a status that everyone envies, yet you have no airs at all."
