Xiaolin Lan shook her head, "It's not hard work."

So what should we do then?

Eriri thought for a moment, then tilted her head to look at Ran Kobayashi, "Have you encountered any problems at work?"

Ran Kobayashi nodded seriously, "Yes, we've encountered a big problem."

"Huh?" This is different from before. Eriri subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"

“It’s just…” Kobayashi Ran hugged Eriri, tilting her little face up in her arms, “I can’t stop thinking about you.”

Yinglili: "..."

Xiaolin Kongqing! ! !

So this is how you are at home?

She's so skilled at acting cute!

Eriri felt that what she usually saw was already excessive enough.

I never expected them to be even worse when I wasn't there.

It seems like they go even further when no one's around...

No, that's not the point.

The key point is that Eriri realized she had miscalculated. Kobayashi Sora and Kobayashi Megumi's daily life was too sweet. Even if Kobayashi Ran only got a little bit of exposure to it and simply imitated a couple of lines, Eriri couldn't resist.

"Meow~" The rice cake, which had been lying obediently, got up, yawned, and stretched.

"Ranran's awake~" Ran let go of Eriri and hugged Mochi. "Did you miss Daddy?"

"Meow~" Nian Gao responded softly.

"Lanlan," Kobayashi Megumi said, "the rice cake seems hungry."

"Really?" Ran Kobayashi rubbed Mochi's belly, the soft, juicy pouch swaying back and forth. "Come on, Mochi, I'll give you something delicious."

Xiaolin Lan skillfully rummaged through the cat food, added some freeze-dried chicken, and then took out a cat treat, feeding it to Nian Gao little by little.

Eriri lay on the floor, her face showing an expression of utter exhaustion.

The skill level difference is too great.

She was still racking her brains to come up with a fictional storyline.

This simple, everyday scene was enough to completely captivate her.

Kobayashi Megumi's voice rang out, "Would you like some lemon black tea?"

"Yes." Eriri had just sat up when a lemon black tea was handed to her.

She casually took the drink and gulped down a large mouthful, then sighed, "Is this how you guys usually are?"

Well... not really.

"You mean things are even worse than this normally?"

“Where is it going too far…” Kobayashi Megumi muttered.

When it comes to loving relationships, there's no such thing as going too far or not going too far.

Kobayashi Megumi did not answer directly.

Eriri already had the answer in her heart.

For questions like this, not answering is also a form of answer.

Eriri swayed a couple of times to sit up straight, holding her lemon tea. "Come to think about it now, how did you two suddenly become so close?"

"I don't know..." Kobayashi Megumi thought for a moment, "Maybe it's because we've been officially married for seven years?"

"No, I meant before," Eriri corrected herself. "Eight years...nine years before we got married."

"Huh?" Kobayashi Megumi laughed. "Nine years and you're only now thinking of asking?"

"Who knew you guys were going to be this creative?" Eriri complained. "I thought it was all just my imagination, but it turns out you guys have already exceeded my expectations."

"Hmm... your imagination?"

"It's just..." Eriri blushed, "...the kitchen..."

What happened in the kitchen?

"bathroom......"

"Hmm?" Kobayashi Megumi sensed something was wrong.

"Entrance hall..."

"Hmm..." Kobayashi Megumi involuntarily looked towards the entrance, her face flushing.

"sofa......"

The sofa is a bit of a hassle... Kobayashi Megumi thought to herself, she should put down a towel or bath towel, otherwise cleaning the sofa would be a real hassle.

"dining table......"

“Um,” Kobayashi Megumi interrupted Eriri’s halting reply, “what did you just ask?”

"We were all playing games together, how did you all start doing... other things?" Eriri searched her memory. "It felt like you guys were moving so fast, like a math class."

"What a strange metaphor!"

“In math class, you can understand it at first,” Eriri explained, “but when you look down at the book and then look up again, the contents on the blackboard are like gibberish.”

Eriri felt this way watching the development of Kobayashi Sora and Kobayashi Megumi's relationship.

When we first formed the club to make games, we chatted like usual, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

Then one day, Eriri suddenly discovered that a thick wall had appeared between her and Megumi Kobayashi.

It cannot be seen or touched, yet it cannot be ignored.

"Now that you mention it..." Kobayashi Megumi recalled, "I think I've had that feeling before."

"Huh?" Eriri looked at Kobayashi Megumi in surprise. "What?"

"There's no need to be so surprised..."

"Of course I'm surprised," Eriri said truthfully. "I thought everything was under your control all along."

"That kind of answer, just like Shiwa's... You haven't been infected by Shiwa's thoughts, have you?" Kobayashi Megumi smiled. "How could that be?"

“That’s the smile!” Eriri leaned forward slightly, carefully observing Kobayashi Megumi’s expression. “That confident, self-assured expression!”

Chapter 729 Appearance and Essence

"There's no such thing as a sure thing..." Kobayashi Megumi said, keeping an eye on Kobayashi Ran's situation. "That's an exaggeration."

"But judging from the results, that's how it is." Eriri recalled everything she had witnessed. "Kora was like that at first, but after meeting you, she slowly became like this."

Kobayashi Megumi tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I don't feel like he's changed much."

Eriri looked speechless. "Are you serious? You were so annoying at the beginning."

"Do I hate it? I feel great."

“Huh?” Eriri gave an example, “Back then, he always wanted others to act according to his ideas.”

"Isn't it the same now?"

“Uh… eh?” Eriri thought for a moment, and it seemed to be true. “Hmm… no, he wasn’t as gentle back then as he is now.”

Megumi Kobayashi's gaze lingered on the mochi for a moment, recalling their first meeting. "He was very gentle back then. The mochi was the first person we met."

"Huh?" Eriri felt like something was off. "He... he wasn't this gentle with Ranran back then."

“Um…” Kobayashi Megumi reminded her, “Ranran wasn’t even born yet back then.”

“Oh right… no!” Eriri rubbed her hair. “Eh… what’s going on? I felt like there had been a big change, but now that you mention it, it seems like he hasn’t changed at all.”

“Nothing has changed to begin with,” Kobayashi Megumi reiterated. “I already said that.”

"Wait a minute, there's one more," Eriri remembered. "He has no passion for his work; he treats it as a tool to make money!"

Kobayashi Megumi hesitated for a moment, "Actually... there aren't any right now."

Eriri noticed the problem, "He was working overtime to remake the panties before."

“Because that’s your work, how can you let others ruin it?” Kobayashi Megumi paused. “But now that you mention it, I’ve noticed a change in him, though it can’t really be called a change.”

Eriri hurriedly asked, "What is it?" She was worried because she couldn't think of anything.

“Friends,” Kobayashi Megumi replied, “Korao has many more friends now than she did back then.”

"Really?" Eriri pondered seriously. "He didn't have many friends back then, and he probably still does now."

“Yes, Eriri is Sora's best friend, isn’t she?” Kobayashi Megumi wagged her finger. “It’s been nine years.”

Eriri immediately retorted, "Who's his friend!"

“Oh right,” Kobayashi Megumi suddenly remembered, “it’s my niece.”

"Hui~" Eriri puffed out her pink cheeks slightly, then noticed that Ran Kobayashi was looking at her with a strange expression. "Ranran?"

"Godmother..." Lin Lan hesitated for a moment, but still bravely expressed her thoughts, "It's okay to act cute with Mom, but Mom is Lanlan's mom, and I can't let my godmother be my mom."

"I... I wasn't being cute!" Eriri hadn't noticed before, but now that Ran Kobayashi had reminded her, she realized that her tone when chatting with Megumi Kobayashi sounded just like Ran's.

"It won't be taken away." Kobayashi Megumi reached out and hugged Kobayashi Ran.

Xiaolin Lan giggled and hugged her mother.

Eriri watched as the mother and daughter snuggled together, and Ran Kobayashi's happy smile was incredibly infectious.

I'm so envious... no, wait.

Eriri shook her head vigorously, trying to clear the strange emotions from her mind.

However, Eriri's thoughts became clearer after being interrupted by Ran Kobayashi.

Has Kobayashi Sora really not changed at all?

of course not.
