How to raise a random guy's wife

Kasumigaoka Utaha quietly gazed at the sleeping Eriri, enjoying the leisurely and pleasant morning.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was also somewhat uneasy about bringing Eriri home.

But Eriri was already very uneasy, so she had to cheer herself up and give Eriri confidence.

"Hmm..." Eriri made a muffled sound, released Kasumigaoka Utaha's arm, placed her small hand on Kasumigaoka Utaha's body, groped around for a bit, and stopped at a familiar spot.

Little hands aren't very well-behaved.

But he is exceptionally honest.

Desire and longing to remain loyal to Eriri.

Just now, while holding Kasumigaoka Utaha's arm, Eriri only moved her arm; the rest of her body remained unchanged, making her current posture appear slightly awkward.

Kasumigaoka Utaha raised her freed arms and embraced Eriri's slender body.

Eriri mumbled something incomprehensible, then snuggled up to Kasumigaoka Utaha, curling up like a cute little kitten.

Perhaps because the movement was a little too large, Eriri trembled slightly and opened her eyes groggily.

Eriri blinked blankly, her deep blue eyes reflecting Kasumigaoka Utaha's face, then hugged Kasumigaoka Utaha and closed her eyes again.

He even rubbed his face against her.

It's almost too cute to be fair.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was about to pat her head when Eriri suddenly raised her head. "Hmm?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha paused in her actions. "What's wrong?"

"Are we... here at the Hui family's house?"

"Oh right?" Kasumigaoka Utaha thought Eriri was still half asleep. "Is she not fully awake? She can sleep a little longer."

"What time is it now?"

“I really didn’t look,” Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at the clock, she had been too busy watching Eriri. “Nine o’clock… it’s almost nine-thirty.”

"9:30?!" Eriri sat bolt upright. "Get up now!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha asked, puzzled, "Is it really necessary to be in such a hurry?"

"Idiot!" Eriri frantically started getting ready. "We got up so late, what will they think of what we did last night! Where are my pajamas?"

“Not everyone has an imagination as rich as yours,” Kasumigaoka Utaha reminded her. “Besides, they weren’t idle last night either.”

“It’s different.” Eriri put on her pajamas, then realized that she should have just put on her clothes.

Luckily, there are some old underwear left over here.

Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. "What's different?"

"They were together. I was first, then you... no, you were first... no... anyway, it's just different!"

"We were together the last time too."

Eriri pouted, "Are you getting up or not?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her arms, "Give me a hug and I'll get up."

"How old are you, still acting like a child..." Eriri reluctantly leaned in and hugged Kasumigaoka Utaha. "Is this okay..."

Before she could finish speaking, Kasumigaoka Utaha pulled her into her arms. With the warmth of the blankets and a lazy scent, Eriri, who had wanted to struggle, involuntarily quieted down.

"Alright," Kasumigaoka Utaha released Eriri, "Get up!"

"I told you to get up a long time ago..." Eriri blushed and snorted softly.

By the time the two finished getting ready and left the room, Kobayashi Sora, who had taken Kobayashi Ran to kindergarten, had already been back for quite some time.

"Good morning." Kobayashi Sora picked up the coffee pot. "Would you like a cup?"

“Of course.” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied calmly.

In contrast, Eriri seemed to have done something wrong.

"Breakfast will be ready soon," Kobayashi Megumi called out from the kitchen. "Go wash your hands and eat breakfast."

“Okay~” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied, drawing out her words.

After washing her hands, Eriri hesitated for a while, feeling she should at least greet them in the morning, otherwise she'd seem too guilty. "Um... Megumi... you're up so early..."

I'm such an idiot. I regretted saying those words as soon as Eriri left my mouth. I had to bring up the very thing I shouldn't have said.

"Because Lanlan goes to kindergarten, I make breakfast with Kongqing in the morning. After a while, she naturally wakes up around this time." Xiaolin Hui tilted her head. "You guys should also adjust your schedules. Whether you go to bed early or late, you should keep them consistent."

“I’d like to…” Eriri helped Megumi Kobayashi serve breakfast, “but sometimes inspiration is out of control, and staying up all night is unavoidable.”

"That's why I encourage you to come to the company whenever you have time, and to fix your creative time within a certain period. Once you get into the habit, you'll naturally enter a creative state at that time." Kobayashi Sora smiled. "As long as you get enough rest, staying up late occasionally is fine, as long as you don't make it a habit."

"Okay~" Eriri replied in a drawn-out voice.

"And also..." Kobayashi Megumi lowered her voice, "you should be careful to exercise restraint."

"Gulp!" Eriri's face flushed red to her ears. "I...we..."

"Ahem." Kasumigaoka Utaha coughed lightly twice. "By the way, Eriri and I are planning to go shopping today. Do you have time?"

"I need to take care of those things from before and wrap them up." Kobayashi Sora shook her head. "Mom, why don't you go shopping with them?"

"Let's forget it," Kobayashi Megumi chuckled. "Let the two of them go by themselves."

The young couple...

Eriri secretly glanced at Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Yes... compared to what happened last night, there are more important things for her to worry about.

Go see Kasumigaoka Utaha's parents and tell them about your relationship.

Just thinking about this makes breakfast seem less appealing.

Even though he and Kasumigaoka Utaha had progressed this far, what if his parents didn't approve...?

Eriri shook her head, trying to shake the thought out of her mind.

No, no, just like what Kobayashi Megumi said last night...

"Don't worry, the people I like, they'll like too." Kasumigaoka Utaha looked up. "Besides, you're so cute."

"Shut up!" Eriri protested. "You're saying everything!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed, "I can't say that~"

Let's talk about it separately in Chapter 976.

"I'm home." Kasumigaoka's father opened the door. "Did you call me back suddenly because something important happened?"

Kasumigaoka's mother poked her head out from the kitchen. "Guess what?"

"I don't remember anything special about today, but I feel like it would be even worse to make a wild guess."

“The answer is satisfactory.” Kasumigaoka’s mother chuckled. “Shiyu called me today and said she was bringing a friend home.”

"Friend?" Kasumigaoka's father changed into slippers and went into the kitchen to help wash and prepare the vegetables. "Boyfriend?"

“If they were just ordinary friends, there would be no need to call back.” Kasumigaoka’s mother knew her daughter’s personality well. “Given Shiho’s character, if she were to bring someone home, it would mean they’re no longer just friends, but marriage partners.”

"So this trip back was just to let us know," Kasumigaoka's father nodded. "We only have the right to agree."

"Do you want to object?" Kasumigaoka's mother retorted. "Shiha is not young anymore."

"Better to have none than something bad." Kasumigaoka's father was firm in his stance. "No matter what, I have to keep an eye on things. Even if I don't directly object, I have a responsibility to tell her my judgment."

"No wonder people say that fathers-in-law and sons-in-law are enemies. You haven't even met them yet, and your hostility is already impossible to hide."

“This is not hostility, it is justice.” Kasumigaoka’s father paused. “Besides, according to you, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are also enemies. Considering Shiyu’s personality, we should also understand the other party’s family.”

“I can’t understand how you feel.” Compared to her serious husband, Kasumigaoka’s mother was clearly more relaxed. “I feel like there shouldn’t be any problems.”

"why?"

“Although Shiwa rarely talks to us about herself, she does have friends her own age,” Kasumigaoka’s mother recalled. “Isn’t she living with Eriri?”

“Eriri…I think she was a high school classmate.” Kasumigaoka’s father didn’t seem to remember her. “No, we went to the same high school.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha is an independent person, and her parents won't deliberately ask her about things she doesn't want to talk about.

“I don’t know as much as you do. I’ve just heard her mention that name often. We’re colleagues who live together now, so we must be good friends.” Kasumigaoka’s mother thought of another person, “Kong Qing is very reliable. His child is six or seven years old now. He’s Shi Yu’s good friend, so he’ll definitely help her choose.”

In the past, Kasumigaoka's mother would often help take care of the mochi.

Kasumigaoka's father remembered Kobayashi Sora, "The victim?"

"That happened so long ago, and Utaha said it was a misunderstanding," Kasumigaoka's mother sighed. "I'm telling you, don't always assume our daughter would break the law, okay?"

"It's not entirely my fault." Kasumigaoka's father glanced at the time. "Did Utaha say when she'd be back?"

"No, she said she wants to go shopping for a while first." Kasumigaoka's mother continued washing the vegetables, "I'll call her again after I've finished washing them to ask when she's coming..."

The sound of the door opening rang out.

Kasumigaoka's father: "We're here."

“This child…” Kasumigaoka’s mother glanced at the vegetables that hadn’t been washed yet. “Well, that’s fine, it saves us from cooking them and letting them get cold.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened the door to her home. "I'm home."

"Welcome back...." Kasumigaoka's parents greeted her at the door and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha carrying a lot of things, along with a cute girl.

"Not her boyfriend..." Her parents were a little surprised, but they still took the things immediately and led the two into the house. "Welcome, we didn't expect Shiyu to bring such a beautiful friend."

"Dad, Mom." Kasumigaoka Utaha put down her things and took Eriri's hand. "This is my girlfriend. We've been dating for a while now."

Kasumigaoka's parents: "...?"

Eriri stiffened. She thought Kasumigaoka Utaha would need to prepare herself before explaining their relationship to each other.

Eriri hadn't even had time to process her expression before Kasumigaoka Utaha was so direct.

"Uncle and Aunt... hello..." Eriri suppressed her unease and shyness, "I'm Shiho's girlfriend..."

Kasumigaoka's parents exchanged a glance, then focused their attention on Eriri, their expressions growing increasingly serious.

Seeing the serious expressions on their faces, Eriri felt even more uneasy and even wanted to hide behind Kasumigaoka Utaha.
