How to raise a random guy's wife

“Hmm…” Kato Megumi paused for a moment. “You go to the living room first, I’ll go get it.”

"......Um."

Kobayashi Sora walked through the hallway and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Kato Megumi walked into the kitchen. "Sister, that shopping bag from earlier."

"Ah, I didn't notice and just took it." Kato Hiromi was washing fruit and casually waved her hand. "You can take it."

"Okay." Kato Megumi picked up the shopping bag, relieved.

"Speaking of which, I quite like that brand of pajamas."

Kato Megumi paused in her steps.

"Time flies," said Hiromi Kato, still washing fruit. "My little sister is old enough to keep her pajamas at a boy's house now."

Chapter 68 One or Two

They saw right through me.

You absolutely must ignore her at this time.

Keita Kato knew his sister's temper well; the more intense her reaction was at this moment, the happier she would be.

Nothing happened.

Silently reciting these words, Kato Megumi carried her shopping bags into the living room.

But the moment I saw Kobayashi Sora.

My sister's words echoed in my mind.

Should we... leave the pajamas at his house?

I used to wear his clothes.

But if it's at his house, the two of them would be wearing matching pajamas in the same house.

Should we find something else and bring it to his house?

Hmm... why are we starting to plan for the future with the premise of staying overnight?

Handing the shopping bags to Kobayashi Sora, Kato Megumi took out a can of soda from the refrigerator. "If you give it to someone else this time, I won't help you carry it."

"I won't give it to anyone." Kobayashi Sora hid the shopping bag behind her back.

Kato Megumi glared at him but didn't say anything more.

"Have some fruit." Kato Hiromi placed the fruit platter on the coffee table, smiling at Kobayashi Sora. "How old are you?"

"I'm seventeen this year."

"You're a year older than Hui. Do you have any siblings?"

"I'm an only child, and I really want a little sister."

“Your little sister isn’t as cute as you think,” Hiromi Kato said with a smile to Megumi Kato. “She sometimes throws tantrums at you, and she doesn’t tell you her worries. When she finally opens up to you, it’s always because of someone else.”

Kato Megumi gave Kobayashi Sora a look that said, "I told you so."

"This is the happy trouble of having a younger sister. People like me who don't have a younger sister can only fantasize about some unrealistic beautiful things." Kobayashi Sora gave Kato Megumi a look that said, "I can handle it."

Hiromi Kato nodded, "That's true. If an older brother saw his younger sister flirting with a boy in front of him, he would probably feel very differently than I do as the older sister."

Xiao Lin Kong Qing: "..."

He noticed that Hiromi Kato and Utaha Kasumigaoka were somewhat similar, both possessing keen observation skills and emotional sensitivity.

The difference lies in the fact that Kasumigaoka Utaha uses harsh words to provoke, while Kato Hiromi uses kind and gentle words.

Huh?!

Kobayashi Sora suddenly remembered that Kasumigaoka Utaha was still at his house.

Perhaps they've already left?

"What's wrong?" Kato Megumi noticed the change in Kobayashi Sora's expression.

Hiromi Kato raised an eyebrow. "Are you thinking about another woman?"

Kobayashi Sora suspected that Kato Hiromi was a fortune teller. "My senior was at my house, wanting to talk to me about her new book. And then I..."

Then you ran out to find me... Kato Megumi silently added to Kobayashi Sora's thoughts.

"Are you really thinking about other women?" Kato Hiromi was just teasing Kobayashi Sora casually, but she didn't expect her to hit the nail on the head.

"They might have already left." Kobayashi Sora took out her phone. "Let me ask."

He sent a message to Kasumigaoka Utaha: 【Are you at my house right now?】

“Megumi,” Hiromi Kato said, resting her chin on her hand, “you’d better keep a close eye on her, because if it happens once, it will happen again.”

"Sister, this is work-related," Kato Megumi retorted. "Don't make trouble..."

Before she could finish speaking, Kato Megumi saw Kobayashi Sora's phone screen.

Kobayashi Sora didn't try to hide it; you could see it out of the corner of your eye.

Kasumigaoka Utaha sent me a picture.

The composition is quite sophisticated.

The bottom right corner shows a corner of the original manga manuscript, the bottom left corner shows plump legs encased in black pantyhose, and the top left corner shows a beautiful blonde girl with twin ponytails.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: [You Have a New Guest]

Xiao Lin Kong Qing: "..."

Kato Megumi: "......"

Hiromi Kato was taken aback. "There really are two." Then a smile appeared on her face. "Kobayashi, it's not too late to explain now."

"There's not much to explain," Kobayashi Sora said, looking at Kato Megumi. "Since everyone's here, how about we discuss club matters together?"

"Hmm... I'll go change my clothes first." Kato Megumi got up and went upstairs.

"Kora-kun," Kato Hiromi stared at Kobayashi Sora, "you should have noticed, right?"

"What did you find?" Kobayashi Sora felt that the pressure from the gentle Kato Hiromi was even greater than that from the sharp-tongued Kasumigaoka Utaha.

“Megumi is different from me. She has a very good temper. Even if someone offends her or says something hurtful, she won’t react in any particular way.” The smile in Hiromi Kato’s eyes gradually disappeared, but the smile on her face remained unchanged. “Don’t bully her.”

“Of course,” Kobayashi Sora replied earnestly, “No one will do.”

“I’ve remembered that,” Kato Hiromi whispered. “You mustn’t forget it either.”

"What are you talking about?" Kato Megumi, having changed her clothes, came downstairs.

"We were talking about whether you're going home tonight," Hiromi Kato replied, turning her head.

"They'll be back." Kato Megumi, somewhat overwhelmed, reminded Kobayashi Sora, "Let's set off quickly."

"Ah."

-

Kasumigaoka Utaha flipped through the original manuscript, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

I never expected that Eriri, who always draws doujinshi, could create such stunning visuals.

Thinking about it, it makes sense.

Both are driven by passion, and the differences between the parts and the whole are not significant.

Eriri's basic skills are already there; the only problem to solve is the content.

And this content...

It may seem like an unorthodox path, but it is actually the most righteous and legitimate way.

There are also unique comedic moments created by the stark contrast.

The most basic form of humor is the funny technique of telling jokes.

The most sophisticated humor is that which blends seamlessly into the storyline.

It's not funny if you ignore the plot, but when you connect it to the context, it's hilarious.

He's got some skills.

While Kasumigaoka Utaha was looking through the original manga manuscript, Eriri, after completing a series of performances of [pretending to be bored and wanting to find something to do, then "suddenly" discovering the manuscript and deciding to just take a look since she had nothing else to do], picked up the original manuscript of Kasumigaoka Utaha's new work and began to read it carefully.

A female senior in black stockings? A big-name celebrity?

A narcissistic woman.

Isolation, exclusion, and ignoring of this senior is exactly like Kasumigaoka Utaha herself!

The gradually disappearing senior student, school bullying, hospitalization incidents, puberty syndrome, Schrödinger's cat...

What kind of development is this?

It feels like a love story, but it's more than just a romance.

What should have been a rather abrupt and strange illness actually felt quite plausible, coupled with the unexpected plot twists...

In particular, this male protagonist, who has a very strong presence, is completely different from the useless male protagonists in Kasumigaoka Utaha's previous works.

Damn it... this woman's storytelling ability is terrifyingly good.

If only I had that ability...

"Sawamura-kun, haven't you finished watching yet?" Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice rang out.

Chapter 69 A Smile at Each Other

"Who...who's reading this?!" Eriri instinctively retorted, but then realized she was holding Kasumigaoka Utaha's manuscript in her hand, and reluctantly put it down. "Who wants to finish reading this?!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha had already put down Eriri's manga manuscript before she even spoke.

Well, how should I put it?

This little girl really knows how to go too far.
