How to raise a random guy's wife

"Well..." Kobayashi Megumi's eyes flickered slightly, "There's a reason for that."

Eriri's words reminded her of what had happened back then.

At that time, I was only thinking about how to help Eriri, and I didn't think too much about it.

Looking back now, I feel a little embarrassed.

"Back then, I was wearing a red dress and jumped right over here," Eriri said with a look of reminiscence.

Ran Kobayashi blinked. "Eri-ri's mom is naughty too."

"Lanlan, you can't do that," Xiaolin Hui reminded her. "Dad prepared a hammock downstairs to ensure our safety."

Is Dad here too?

“That’s right.” Eriri turned to look at Kobayashi Sora. “They even turned off the power.”

“To be fair,” Kobayashi Sora corrected, “it was your parents who had the electricity cut off.”

"What I'm more curious about is..." Kasumigaoka Utaha noticed the problem, "Why is Megumi playing the knight? Shouldn't it be Sora Aoi?"

“Well…” Kobayashi Megumi suggested, “Let’s go see the stars.”

"Look at the stars!" Lin Lan cheered happily.

After quickly packing their things, the group left the villa and headed uphill to the top of the mountain.

"Wow—~" Ran Kobayashi looked up, "I can see so many stars!"

The deep blue sky was dotted with glittering stars, their dreamlike light traveling an unimaginable distance to illuminate her eyes.

Kobayashi Megumi handed the star chart to her daughter, "Try to find the constellations on it."

"Hmm..." Kobayashi Ran lowered her head, "I can't see."

The starlight was clearly insufficient to illuminate the star chart in her hand.

Kobayashi Sora turned on her flashlight, and the red light shone on the star chart.

"Huh?" Xiaolin Lan turned to look at her father.

“This is a red light flashlight,” Kobayashi Sora explained. “When stargazing, this is less dazzling than the others.”

"Wow, amazing!" Ran looked down at the star map, then looked up at the sky. "Hmm... so many, and there are no lines."

“That’s when we need to connect the stars with the threads of our imagination.” Eriri pointed to the sky. “Look, Leo is right there.”

“That’s Ursa Major,” Kasumigaoka Utaha grabbed Eriri’s wrist and adjusted the direction. “Leo is over here.”

"Isn't that Boötes?"

“The herdsman is sitting over here…” Kasumigaoka Utaha felt so tired.

"So many constellations." Ran Kobayashi looked at the star chart in her hand, then looked up at the sky, and finally put the star chart down. "Well... it's beautiful even if I can't understand it."

“That’s right.” Kobayashi Sora removed the red filter from the flashlight and pointed the beam at the sky. “Look, a lightsaber!”

"Wow!" Lin Lan's eyes lit up. "Amazing!"

"There's another move," Kobayashi Sora turned his wrist, and a beam of light swept across the air, "Ha! Whoosh! Sweeping away a thousand troops!"

"Ah..." Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at her with an expression of looking at a childish fool, "So you've finally met your match."

"Lanlan wants to play too!" Xiaolin Hui raised her little hand.

"This power is entrusted to you!" Kobayashi Sora said earnestly. "Be careful not to hurt anyone."

"Yes!" Kobayashi Ran nodded solemnly, gripping the flashlight with both hands. "Ha! Whoosh! Sweep away the enemy..."

"Ah!" Kobayashi Sora covered the spot of light on her chest. "This feeling..."

“This power…” Ran Kobayashi looked at her flashlight, “So I really can’t control it yet…” She turned to Megumi Kobayashi, “Mommy, do you want to play?”

"Hmm..." Kobayashi Megumi didn't want to participate, but she still took the flashlight. "Ha...whoosh...what?"

“It seems that Mom is more suited to this power than Lanlan,” Xiaolin Lan sighed. “The rest is up to Mom.”

"Huh?" Kobayashi Megumi tilted her head. "Aren't you going to play anymore?"

Ran Kobayashi answered truthfully, "It's so heavy..."

They were so naive just a moment ago, but suddenly they've matured.

Sitting on the folding chairs that were brought along, the group ate snacks while admiring the dazzling starry sky.

Eriri swallowed the snack in her mouth. "Ranran, do you recognize any stars?"

"Hmm..." Ran Kobayashi pointed to the sky with her Pocky stick, "That brightest one."

"What should we call it?"

"Hmm..." Ran Kobayashi thought for a moment, "The moon?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha nudged Kobayashi Ran's hand, "The moon is over here."

"Isn't that the moon?"

“The moon is the moon,” Kasumigaoka Utaha added.

"It's so nice..." Ran Kobayashi murmured, "I really want to go up there and take a look."

Kasumigaoka Utaha reminds us, "There are no Pocky sticks on it."

Ran Kobayashi bit off a piece of Pocky, "Never mind then."

Chapter 745 Beauty Yoga

“Then, here we use this method…” Eriri demonstrated while explaining the points to note, “and then the three-dimensional effect comes out.”

Now that Ran Kobayashi has reached the age where she needs to learn some techniques, Eriri often takes time to come and teach her some basics.

Click...click click...

Ran Kobayashi, perched on Eriri's back, heard a strange sound and blinked. "Eri-chan, your neck is cracking."

"Huh?" Eriri stretched her neck and shook her head. "Ouch... It really hurts... What happened?"

Compared to Ran Kobayashi, she could hear much more clearly.

It was as if he had two rusty gears stuck in his neck.

"What else could it be?" Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was discussing future plans with Kobayashi Megumi, turned her head. "She's either sitting in front of the computer or in front of the picture frame. The last time she exercised was when we went hiking to see the stars at your house, right? I had to help her down the mountain."

Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha prefer to talk about work at Kobayashi's house rather than at the company.

The environment here is more comfortable, and there's also the lovely Lin Lan.

Utaha Kasumigaoka can also drink Kobayashi Sora's coffee.

Kobayashi Sora once even learned how to make lemon black tea.

However, Eriri said she doesn't like the taste of drinks without additives.

Kobayashi Sora gave up on further study.

"I...I ate too much!" Eriri blushed. "I ate too many snacks and couldn't walk, it's not because I lacked exercise."

Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed, "Do you feel that being unable to descend the mountain due to overeating is much better than being unable to descend due to lack of exercise?"

Yinglili: "..."

“But then again,” Kobayashi Megumi felt this wasn’t a small problem, “you still need to pay attention to your health, especially since you sit for long periods and lack exercise—how about getting a massage occasionally?”

“This…” Eriri lowered her head.

“On that point,” Kasumigaoka Utaha stood up, “this guy simply can’t get a massage.”

Kobayashi Megumi asked, puzzled, "Huh?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha reached out and pinched Eriri.

"Ugh~~~ Hmm!" Eriri's voice trailed off several times before she abruptly stopped, glaring at the culprit through gritted teeth, "Kasumigaoka Utaha!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha shrugged. "That's it."

This happened when they were at home, and they made a bet about something because they had nothing to do.

Then Kasumigaoka Utaha lost and was asked to give Eriri a massage.

Kasumigaoka Utaha discovered this interesting phenomenon.

"How interesting!" Kobayashi Ran also tried pinching it.

Eriri showed no reaction.

"Huh?" Ran Kobayashi looked puzzled.

"Stop fooling around." Eriri hugged Ran Kobayashi in her arms, then glared at Utaha Kasumigaoka.

Megumi Kobayashi was wondering why, even though Ran Kobayashi often climbs all over Eriri, she had never heard Eriri make any strange noises.

It turns out that it depends on the partner.

So... Kobayashi Megumi was a little curious about what would happen if she did it herself.

Eriri's gaze sharpened. "No."

She keenly sensed Kobayashi Megumi's burgeoning thoughts.

“If massage isn’t working,” Kobayashi Megumi suggested without batting an eye, “how about trying exercise?”

"No!" Eriri refused resolutely, "No, no, no, no..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed, "Just like a child."

Xiaolin Lan shook her head, "Lanlan wouldn't do that."

Kobayashi Sora picked up Kobayashi Ran and said, "Isn't it unnecessary to be so resistant?"

“In short, no,” Eriri said, glancing to the side, “because… you’ll sweat a lot during exercise.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked doubtful. "Isn't it because you're not good at sports?"

"That's one of the reasons!"

“You could try yoga,” Kobayashi Megumi gestured a yoga pose. “Yoga is great for beauty and health, and the movements are gentle and simple. If you progress gradually, it’s not too difficult and it’s great for your skin. Oh, and it’s also very effective for weight loss.”
