How to raise a random guy's wife

I had hoped to see him lose his composure, with his pupils and nostrils dilating, his face flushed and him breathing heavily, or at the very least, to see him dazed.

Tsk.

She began to have some doubts about Kobayashi Sora's sexual orientation.

If Aki Tomoya or Hashima Iori were wearing swimsuits, Kobayashi Sora would probably get excited.

"I'll give mine to you too." Kato Megumi took off her T-shirt and handed it to Kobayashi Sora.

"Okay." Kobayashi Sora took the clothes, folded them, and put them away.

Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Kobayashi Sora could remain so calm in the face of Kato Megumi?

The moment Kobayashi Sora put away the clothes, her gaze naturally fell on Kato Megumi.

I had already seen the swimsuit once in the store before.

But when worn by Kato Megumi, it gives off a completely different feeling.

Unlike Eriri's slender figure or Kasumigaoka Utaha's voluptuousness, her well-proportioned body, accentuated by the pink swimsuit, presents a harmonious and natural beauty.

With her eyelids slightly lowered, Kobayashi Sora averted her gaze.

Kato Megumi was already blushing a little. Even though it was a swimsuit, it wasn't good to keep staring.

In fact, underwear and swimwear are not that different, but looking at someone's underwear and looking at someone's swimwear are two completely different concepts.

subtle.

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded slightly. So that's how it is. As long as you don't look too closely, you won't lose your composure.

That guy, Kobayashi Sora...

"Hmm..." Kato Megumi lowered her head, making a somewhat troubled sound.

Kobayashi Sora asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"It seems to be stuck." Kato Megumi had only taken off her T-shirt, but she couldn't undo her skirt.

"Let me see." Kobayashi Sora approached and examined Kato Megumi's short skirt.

It turned out that the zipper was stuck on the drawstring of the swim trunks.

“It’s definitely stuck.” Kobayashi Sora gripped the zipper. “I’ll apply a little pressure, don’t move.”

“Hmm…” Kato Megumi responded softly.

Kobayashi Sora was so close that she could almost feel his warm body temperature.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "......" There's another trick to this?!

Chapter 165 Senior's Inspiration

It truly is a case of the devil being one step ahead of the saint.

Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes slightly. Kato Megumi, this woman, is not simple.

Kobayashi Sora applied a little force, "All done."

The reason Kato Megumi couldn't pull it apart was because of the angle, making it inconvenient to apply force.

Kobayashi Sora only needed to apply a little force, and the zipper ran over the thin thread.

The short skirt was untied.

So close, Kobayashi Sora could even hear the faint sound of the ruffles on her skirt and swim trunks rubbing together.

"That's all right..." Kobayashi Sora's voice trailed off.

Something's come up.

Something terrible has happened.

He could see the blush gradually spreading across Kato Megumi's face, feel the warmth of her shy breath against his skin, and see...

“Um…” Kobayashi Sora coughed lightly, “It’s very cute.”

“…Um.” Kato Megumi hesitated for a moment, as if unsure how to respond. “Um…you too.”

Kobayashi Sora: "Thank you... um?"

“Ah, I mean…” Kato Megumi explained, “You picked this one, so my cuteness is yours.”

"I see..." Kobayashi Sora bowed slightly. "You guys go have fun, I need to make a phone call."

"......Um."

Three beautiful girls were playing on the beach, while Kobayashi Sora sat on the sand.

Pretend to make a phone call.

Swim trunks...

"I said... Eriri." After completing the achievement of chasing the waves, the girls began to rest and recover their strength. Kasumigaoka Utaha recalled Kato Megumi's actions and the events that had happened before. "I have an idea. Are you interested?"

"Huh?" Eriri drawled, "What does this have to do with me?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled, “Because the best way to express this inspiration is through manga, and of course animation would be even better, but we have to take it one step at a time.”

"Oh?" Eriri raised an eyebrow. "Is this an invitation to collaborate? Should I accept? Of course not! Who wants to collaborate with you!"

Aren't you going to listen to my thoughts?

"I won't listen! I won't listen!" Eriri felt a strange sense of déjà vu, just like when she was facing Kobayashi Sora.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is starting to be assimilated by Kobayashi Sora.

When faced with Kobayashi Sora... even someone similar to him, Eriri felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

It's like a lonely housewife meeting a strong water deliveryman... Stop, stop, stop!!!

Because she was often in a passive position in front of Kobayashi Sora, now all sorts of images pop into her mind whenever she thinks of him.

“Um…” Kato Megumi was examining the seashell she had picked up, “I want to hear something.”

“Okay,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, “In short, it’s a story about a tsundere.”

Eriri watched the undulating waves, and her cute ears twitched.

Although she was unwilling to admit it... no, although she was unwilling to say it, she did indeed quite admire Kasumigaoka Utaha's writing skills.

They dislike each other simply because they share the same goal.

If someone else were present, the two of them could never have sat so harmoniously by the sea.

Come to think of it... it seems like it's been a long time since I've seen him.

"Ah, I know that." Kato Megumi rarely seemed to know a little bit. "It's that feeling of liking someone but not taking the initiative, like mochi, right?"

“That’s right.” Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at Eriri. “It’s probably the kind of writing logic used in sitcoms like ‘The Big Bang Theory,’ where characters clearly have a goal, but are trapped in an endless loop due to certain ideological limitations or preconceived notions…”

"Hmm...hmm?" Kato Megumi looked clearly bewildered.

"To put it simply, the person who confesses first is the loser in a relationship. Based on this premise, the story depicts two people who like each other using all sorts of methods to seduce each other into confessing." Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes slightly. "In short, it's a battle of wits in love among geniuses."

"This looks really interesting!"

Looking at Kato Megumi's calm expression, Kasumigaoka Utaha began to wonder if she had guessed wrong, or if everything before was just a coincidence.

"Hmph," Eriri scoffed, "It's just an idea. There are plenty of people with ideas, but how many can become a good story?"

"Heh..." Kasumigaoka Utaha sneered, "Falling in love with someone, confessing, forming a bond—everyone would say it's a wonderful thing—but that's a lie! There's a clear power dynamic between lovers, exploiter and exploited, giver and given, winner and loser. If you want to live nobly, you absolutely cannot be a loser—love is war! The one who falls in love first is the loser."

She smiled slightly. "How about this opening?"

"Wow, that's amazing!" Kato Megumi exclaimed. "It has such a powerful presence."

This isn't just a matter of having a lot of presence...

Eriri gently bit her lower lip.

She heard everything Kasumigaoka Utaha said clearly. The story is basically based on two tsundere characters. If you want the story to be accepted by people, you must first lay a good foundation.

Just like the Devil Fruits in One Piece, the chakra in Naruto, and the Zanpakuto in Bleach, don't ask how, they just exist.

For a story to continue, it needs a reasonable foundation.

It doesn't need to be true, it just needs to seem to make some sense.

Is real love truly as Kasumigaoka Utaha describes?

of course not.

But is what she said reasonable?

Indeed there is.

This is enough.

The opening paragraph clearly states the theme and sets the tone, and it's so concise yet persuasive and compelling.

Gee...

Eriri was very envious.

But she didn't say anything.

"The female lead is a wealthy, flat-chested heiress, while the male lead is a hardworking young man from an ordinary family. The disparity in their social status highlights their different methods, supplemented by interference from other characters, until they end up sharing a bed." Kasumigaoka Utaha noticed Eriri's change in expression. "How is it?"

Eriri snapped, "Why are you emphasizing the chest?!"

“It’ll help you feel more immersed in the story,” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied matter-of-factly, “so it’ll be easier for you to draw.”

"Who agreed to that!"

"Aren't you quite familiar with the tsundere thing?"

"You're the arrogant one!"

Kobayashi Sora approached, "What are you talking about?"

Kato Megumi responded, "Senior has a new idea!"

"I see..." Kobayashi Sora nodded repeatedly after listening. "This kind of plot has a lot of psychological descriptions, and it's more effective to use manga as a medium than light novels. Sawamura, this is a great collaboration, why did you refuse?"

"Hmph." Eriri couldn't think of a reason to refuse, and turned to look at the sea.
