I just hope to live a leisurely life in the world of anime.

He fabricated a story, and Tendo Kazuhiro, dissatisfied with him as the head of the family, conspired with some government officials and foreign enemies to overthrow the Tokyo government and become the head of the Tendo family himself, but was unexpectedly exposed by him.

So he prepared to sacrifice his own family for the greater good and personally arranged for Tendou Kisara to capture him. However, due to Tendou and Hikaru's fierce resistance, he accidentally killed him.

Although the Holy Emperor had some doubts, he did not think too much about it, after all, the evidence was conclusive and the verdict was final.

Therefore, not only did Kikunojo Tendo not fall this time, but he moved even closer to the center of power.

After going around in circles, Tian Tong, Xuan Zhuo, and the other two were only sentenced to be dismissed from their posts and given a three-year probation period.

Although Tendo Kisara still didn't have much conversation with him after that, he would occasionally go back to the Tendo family to continue learning Tendo's sword-drawing technique from Tendo Suki and also get a kidney transplant so he wouldn't have to go for dialysis every now and then, thus getting over the shadows of the past.

The newly constructed No. 32 megalith by the government has also been completed, although Aldebaran has not yet dissipated.

"Ha!" An Shu kicked at a pebble on the roadside. Although the misunderstanding about the old man had been cleared up, she was still inexplicably annoyed! It felt like she had been made a fool of!

"Ouch!" Lost in thought, he was suddenly bumped into by a little girl running towards him.

"Ouch! That hurts... I'm sorry!" The little girl, still a bit dazed from not being able to stop, quickly apologized.

"Are you alright? Be careful, don't run so fast!"

An Shu touched her stomach, then realized what had happened. She gently patted the head of the strange little girl who had bumped into her and offered her a gummy candy. "Does it hurt? Here, have some candy!"

"Huh?" The little girl, rubbing her forehead and looking aggrieved, paused for a moment, then took the candy and smiled. "Thank you, big sister!"

"Sister?" She gave a wry smile. "Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?" An Shu squatted down and reached out to tidy up the dust on her clothes.

"Don't be afraid! My sister is so pretty, she definitely won't be a bad person!"

So you're judging people by their appearance at such a young age? The little girl's words amused An Shu.

"Then why are you here alone? Where are your parents?"

"My mom, dad, and I are going to the restaurant in front for dinner, and they're behind us! I run faster than them! Aren't I amazing, sister?"

"Hmm?" Looking behind her, she saw a middle-aged couple standing by the roadside watching them. After noticing his gaze, they nodded slightly to him.

With a slight smile, An Shu returned the greeting and looked at the little girl again, "Impressive, impressive, but I'm the older brother!"

"Huh? Brother?" The little girl's eyes widened, then she muttered to herself, "I knew why his voice sounded weird, and his chest was so small..."

Damn, are all kids like this nowadays? A black line appeared on his forehead, but a smile still lingered on his lips.

"Honey! Go find your parents! It's dangerous for you to run around alone!"

"Okay!" Her mouth was full of candy, so her voice was a little unclear. "Thank you for the candy, brother. You're so cute! If I weren't so young, I would marry you!"

Her smile had already frozen, and An Shu patted her head again in annoyance, "How old are you? What are you thinking! Go on! Your parents are watching!"

"Hehe! Is your brother embarrassed?" She ran a few steps, turned back, and waved to him. "Goodbye, brother!"

"Okay, goodbye!"

"Hey, is Brother Anshu trying to abduct a young girl again? Has he finally lost interest in me and Tong-chan?" A little girl walked over from the supermarket not far away, holding An Tong's hand in one hand and carrying a shopping basket in the other.

"What do you mean by 'abducting a young girl'? And what do you mean by 'losing interest'? You brat!" He took two steps forward and grabbed the little girl's face. The feeling was getting better and better. Had he gotten used to it?

"Isn't that right? You were the one who tricked me and Hitomi into getting together with you! Didn't you, Hitomi?"

"Hehe..." The little girl chuckled foolishly without answering, but just hugged Sima Weizhi's leg tightly.

"Did you buy the groceries I asked you to?" He let go of her hand, flicked her forehead, and then picked up the little girl.

"I bought them all!"

"Then let's go! We'll probably be leaving tomorrow, and there's nothing much to do anymore."

"Really?" The little girl lowered her eyes, suddenly feeling a little melancholy, a touch of reluctance, but mostly longing for the future. "Yes!"

"Let's go!" An Shu sighed, just like everyone else.

The three turned around, the setting sun lengthening their shadows, and they could vaguely hear the conversation between the girl and her parents behind them.

"Mommy, Mommy! That boy gave me a piece of candy, it's so sweet!"

"That's my older sister, not my older brother!"

"But that older brother said he was the older brother!"

……

Sima's residence.

"We're here!" The voice preceded the person's arrival. "Cui, come here!"

"Come in quickly!" Tendo Kisara said with a smile as he opened the door for Tsuzawa Akira.

"It's Kisara-senpai! I've wanted to visit you for a long time, but I just can't seem to find the time."

"It's alright, it's alright! Brother Zhangmo, I've already heard about it from Rijian-kun! By the way, who is this..."

"Buri... Midori!" The loli wearing the tall hat only managed to utter one sentence before shyly hiding behind Akira Tsubasa.

"Excuse me, Kisara-senpai, Midori is a bit shy." With a smile, Akimaru Tanizuki patted her head and explained to Kisara Tendo.

"It's alright, it's alright!" Tendo Kisara quickly waved his hand again.

"Hey! Who are you? What are you doing blocking the entrance?" A blond, sunglasses-wearing, nonchalant young man walked over with his hands behind his head.

"Hey! Akima-nii?"

"Ah! Brother Yushu!" Akimasa Tsuzawa also realized what was happening and gave him a hug.

"Brother Zhangmo, where did you go the year before last? Long time no see! What are you doing here?" He punched Zhangmo's shoulder hard. The two used to have a pretty good relationship.

"Ha! I went traveling. Today, An Shujun invited me to dinner."

"Huh? You know the goddess too? So the goddess sent you too!" he exclaimed dramatically.

"Katagiri Yushu! Anshu-kun is busy in the kitchen! Do you want to die? Wasn't the lesson learned last time enough?" Tendo Kisara was startled and quickly lowered his voice.

"It's okay! Even if he were a man, he would still be my goddess. After all, he's so cute, so beautiful, and he smells so good..." As he spoke, he even started drooling.

"That's not what I meant!" Tendo Kisara said, hands on his hips, scratching his head, looking somewhat troubled.

"You idiot bro, you should just die!" The sharp-tongued blonde girl behind him gave him a disdainful look.

"Yuzuki, long time no see! Good evening!" Akira Tsubasa chuckled and nodded at her. "Midori, say hello to her, this is Katagiri Yuzuki!"

"Y-you...hello Yuzuki-chan! I'm Fuse...Midori..." She timidly peeked out, her face turning red to her ears.

"Hello, Akima-nii! Good evening, Midori-chan!" It seems that apart from her own brother and Rentaro, Katagiri Yumie is quite friendly to others!

"Hitomi-chan, Enju and Tina are in the bedroom. Yumizuki, take Midori to go play with them!" Tendo Kisara, also with a smile, pointed to a room for them.

"Okay! Let's go, Midori-chan!" Katagiri Yumiko, ever the friendly type, pulled Fuse Midori along and led her towards the bedroom.

"Ugh..." After a reflexive struggle, Busei Tsui let her pull her away.

"What are you doing at the door? Miss Kisara, please bring them in! There might be other guests coming later, and you'll have a chance to taste Anshu's cooking tonight!"

The little girl came out of the kitchen with a bag of trash in her hand. She was clearly taken aback when she saw the people blocking the doorway, but then smiled and greeted them.

"Okay, coming right away!"

Chapter Fifty-Five: The Dinner Party

“Officer, I don’t recall inviting you!”

"Um... I asked Mr. Kikunojo to come along." The Emperor wiped his mouth with a tissue, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Hmm... Anshu-kun's cooking is quite good! It would be even better if he could show some respect for the elderly." Kikunojo, having lived a long life, was so thick-skinned that he didn't even blink. He didn't care about Anshu-kun's attitude and showed no intention of stopping his chopsticks.

"Tch! You have the nerve to attend a gathering of us young people?"

"hehe."

"The goddess's cooking is really delicious! And she's beautiful too!" Katagiri Tamaki said, biting his chopsticks with a look of pure delight.

"You deadbeat gay, today's a day I'm barely happy, so don't make me hit you. I'll say it again, I'm a man!"

"Of course I know, but since meeting you, my goddess, I've realized that love has nothing to do with gender!"

"Hahahaha—" Everyone burst into laughter at An Shu's dejected look.

Not to be outdone, An Shu grabbed the little girl laughing the loudest next to her and pulled her into her arms, rubbing her baby face. "Shut up!"

"Brother Anshu, we're full!" Lan Yuanyanzhu from another table ran over and said to him, "We're going to play now!"

"Won't you eat something else?"

Everyone's full!

"Ok!"

"Hehe, quick, Hitomi-chan, grab Midori-chan! Tina, Yumi-tsuki, hold her tight! Don't let her get away! Let's go!"

"Whoa! Hitomi-chan..." Feeling herself being hugged, Midori Fuse felt a little embarrassed.

"It's okay! Don't worry, Cui-chan, let's go!" The four little girls lifted her up at the same time and walked towards the room.

Lan Yuan Enju naturally led the way, acting like a big sister.

"You guys are not allowed to bully Cui-chan!" An Shu warned.

"No, don't worry, Brother Anshu!" The slightly precocious pink-haired loli patted her non-existent chest and made a solemn promise.

“Brother Anshu… save me…” Bu Shi Cui’s eyes were brimming with tears, but she didn’t seem to be struggling.

"Let's go! Let's go!" With a wave of his hand, he sped up and rushed into the bedroom, slamming the door shut. The sounds could still be faintly heard coming from inside.

"Hitomi-chan, hug her, I want to touch her. Midori-chan, be good, don't move around!"

Why do I always have this feeling that this cat-eared loli is going to be ruined?

……

"An Shuqing, thank you for your hospitality, but it's getting late, so we must take our leave!"

The Emperor glanced up at the clock on the wall, nodded politely to him, and then looked at Kikunojo beside him.

"Okay! Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

“Then we should go too, Midori!” Watching the Emperor Seitenshi just leave, Akimasa Tsuzawa also stood up from the sofa and lazily stretched.
