How to raise a random guy's wife

Chapter 988 deserves praise.

“Yes.” Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded firmly. “That’s exactly what I think.”

Eriri scoffed, "It would be strange if you thought that way."

“It’s normal for ideas to change after such a long production time,” Kasumigaoka Utaha recalled. “I think this project was originally proposed back in high school.”

"It also inspired the production of 'Liella! Superstar' at the time," Kobayashi Megumi turned to look at Kobayashi Sora, "but this project should have been finalized even earlier."

"I had this idea a long time ago, and it was documented in writing..." Kobayashi Sora tapped her forehead lightly, "It's been ten years."

“That’s settled,” Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded in satisfaction. “Remember to add this in the follow-up interviews—a work that has been in the works for ten years.”

"You really have the nerve to say that..." Eriri retorted, "You've only actually been doing it for less than three years."

Kasumigaoka Utaha remained unfazed. "The rest of the time is spent getting into the swing of things."

Yinglili: "..."

"Let's wait a while longer, until the hype has built up enough, then release the One-Punch Man PV. The hype will be even greater then." Kobayashi Sora sorted out the follow-up plans in her mind. "Then there's Akane-nee's new movie during the downtime, followed by Mayu's manga, the overseas anime, and the game's closed beta..."

“We’ll be busier and busier from now on,” Kobayashi Megumi suggested. “While we still have some time, how about we find somewhere to celebrate the game’s positive reception?”

"Great!" Mayu Sagara exclaimed, quite intrigued. "Any good places to go?"

"How was the swimming pool?" Eriri wanted to make up for her previous disappointment. "The hot springs were very comfortable, but I never felt quite satisfied."

"The swimming pool..." Bo Island reached out and pinched his stomach. "I must swim a little longer."

Kobayashi Megumi tugged at Kobayashi Sora's sleeve, "How's that pool hotel we went to? Is it still open?"

"I'll ask around," Kobayashi Sora sent a message and quickly received a reply: "It's still open for business, and it was recently renovated."

Kasumigaoka Utaha asked curiously, "Which one?"

Kobayashi Sora replied, "The one my brother introduced me to."

"Your brother..." Eriri was taken aback, "You just contacted my dad?"

"Uncle, it's me..."

"shut up!"

-

The hotel's upper-floor pool felt somewhat empty, but the city lights outside the windows created a dazzling and inviting cityscape.

After changing into her swim trunks, Kobayashi Sora stood by the pool, warmed up briefly, and then jumped in.

The pool water was so cold it sent a chill down my spine. Kobayashi Sora moved around a lot in the pool to get used to the temperature as quickly as possible.

Some of the unfamiliar movements gradually became more skillful, and the body gradually warmed up.

Kobayashi Sora took a deep breath and submerged into the water. In the still silence, she looked at the blurry lights above through the water and had a fleeting feeling of being isolated from the world.

The gentle flow of water enveloped his body, like a subtle embrace. Kobayashi Sora recalled the tranquility he had experienced when he first came here.

Kobayashi Sora swam to the edge of the pool and reached out to grab the edge.

He still remembers that when he first poked his head out of the water, he saw Kobayashi Megumi squatting by the pool.

"Wow!"

Kobayashi Sora bursts out of the water, meeting Kobayashi Ran's adorable little face. "Daddy's so amazing!"

Megumi Kobayashi crouched down next to Ran Kobayashi, her arms protecting her daughter behind her back to prevent her from accidentally falling.

Her fair thighs and calves pressed together, creating a beautiful curve; the light blue tie-up swimsuit only covered a small portion of her...

"Mmm..." Kobayashi Megumi's lips parted slightly, silently lip-reading a condemnation, "Daddy is so lewd."

Kobayashi Sora straightened up, supporting herself on the edge of the pool, and mouthed, "We're even~"

He then spun around and sat by the pool, holding his daughter in his arms. "If Lanlan practices hard, she can be just as good as her dad!"

Little Lin Lan held onto her father's arm, tentatively dipping her little feet into the water, her toes adorably twitching back, "It's so cold!"

"It'll be better if you get moving around."

Ran Kobayashi was eager to try and wanted to jump in.

"No~" Kobayashi Sora laughed and lifted Kobayashi Ran up. "It's too deep here. Ranran needs to go to the shallow pool next to us."

Little Lin Lan wiggled her legs, her little feet treading on the water. "Lanlan can walk on the water! (*^▽^*)"

"Lanlan is amazing~" Kobayashi Megumi praised, then sat down next to Kobayashi Sora by the pool, pressing her arm against him. "It's so cool."

"This scene feels strangely familiar," Kasumigaoka Utaha said, wearing a black swimsuit and smoothing her slightly messy short hair. "Is it just my imagination?"

"What's wrong with that..." Eriri looked at Ran Kobayashi with a hint of envy as her white swimsuit and snow-white skin complemented each other. She wanted to do the same thing too. "Isn't it always like this?"

No matter what kind of event it is, Kobayashi Sora and Kobayashi Megumi can turn it into a dog food production site.

But you don't need to worry about that now.

Eriri hugged Kasumigaoka Utaha's arm.

She can do it too.

Kasumigaoka Utaha moved her arm, and Eriri immediately rolled her eyes at her.

Releasing her arm, Eriri scolded irritably, "H."

Kasumigaoka Utaha hugged Eriri's arm, "Then you're not allowed to move around."

Eriri: "......" Damn it, I can't help it at all.

Machida Sonoko, wearing a high-cut swimsuit, watched this scene with satisfaction.

After learning that Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri had confirmed their relationship, Machida Sonoko felt a kind of joy, like her own cabbage was being stolen by someone else's cabbage... Eh?

Akane Akasaka adjusted her see-through swimsuit and looked at Kobayashi Sora, who was holding Kobayashi Ran. "You've kept a good figure. You deserve praise."

Kobayashi Megumi's fingers traced across Kobayashi Sora's body. "Sora has always been consistent in exercising."

Akane Akasaka nudged Sonoko Machida, "Did you hear that? You should also exercise properly, just like Sora Ao."

Machida Sonoko grabbed her hand. "I should be saying that to you."

Mayu Sagara and Hashima arrived late for their boat trip, both wearing cute swimsuits, but the overall effect was quite different.

Wearing it on a boat trip on Hashima Island gives off a feeling of bearing a heavy burden, but on Mayu Sagara... it's just pure cuteness.

Mayu Sagara was still reeling from the shock she had just witnessed; no matter how many times she watched it, she was still just as stunned.

The murder weapon... an absolute murder weapon.

Go out to sea from Hashima to see Kobayashi Sora and Kobayashi Megumi, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri, and then Akane Akasaka and Sonoko Machida.

This atmosphere where only we are failing...

Chapter 989 Water Sports

"Because the water temperature is relatively low, going into the water rashly can easily cause muscle cramps or strains." Kobayashi Megumi guided everyone to do warm-up exercises together, "So you must warm up thoroughly before going into the water."

She often exercises with Kobayashi Sora at home, and now she serves as a temporary coach.

Megumi Kobayashi stands with her feet shoulder-width apart, interlacing her fingers and extending her arms straight up overhead. Her beautifully sculpted body, achieved through consistent exercise, stretches out, and with a slight bend to one side, it presents an enviable, elegant curve.

A large group of people followed her example.

“Uh…” Akane Akasaka’s expression froze. “I think I heard a cracking sound from my waist.”

"This means you should exercise more," Machida Sonoko reminded him irritably.

“I’ve been exercising all along…” Akane Kousaka argued, “especially in the evenings.”

“I’m talking about proper exercise!” Machida Sonoko blushed and almost lost her balance. “The more you do that kind of exercise, the more your back hurts.”

Akane Kousaka countered, "Which kind?"

Machida Enzi: "..."

"Megumi's figure is really amazing..." Hashima Izumi looked at Kobayashi Megumi's well-proportioned figure with envy.

Even though their bust sizes are similar, they give off completely different vibes.

"You shouldn't put too much pressure on yourself," Mayu Sagara comforted her. "You two are in different situations. Megumi has someone helping her."

Bo Island at sea: "Ah...indeed."

"Hey!" Eriri glared at Kasumigaoka Utaha. "Stop staring at Megumi!"

"She's a temporary coach now, who else should I look at if not her?" Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. "Jealous?"

"Huh?" Eriri bristled. "Who would be jealous!"

“Don’t be self-conscious,” Kasumigaoka Utaha’s gaze slid slightly downwards, “Small is also cute.”

"Kasumigaoka Utaha!"

Kobayashi Megumi sighed. No one was paying attention during the warm-up exercises.

No, there are still some who are focused.

Ran Kobayashi diligently imitated her mother's actions, while Sora Kobayashi attentively corrected her mistakes.

Ok.

Kobayashi Megumi decided to reward Kobayashi Sora later.

"Huff... huff..." Eriri slumped to the ground, looking at Akane Kousaka beside her, "I didn't expect you to last this long."

Akane Akasaka, panting heavily, rested her hands on her knees. "You're not bad either, you surprised me."

Their eyes met, and they felt a mutual appreciation.

To encounter such a formidable foe is a great fortune in life.

"How can you say such things with such a clear conscience?" Kasumigaoka Utaha pulled Eriri up. "You haven't even gone into the water yet, and you're talking like you've swum thousands of meters."

“We’ve only just finished warming up,” Machida Sonoko thought to herself, figuring out how to get Akane Kousaka to get more exercise. “Your physique needs improvement.”

Akane Akasaka raised her hand and put it on Sonoko Machida's shoulder, "Being sickly is also one of the appealing traits."
