How to raise a random guy's wife

"So..." Eriri's eyes were practically overflowing with curiosity, "Is there any good method, something simple, direct, and effective?"

“Even if you say that…” Kobayashi Megumi didn’t expect that Eriri would arrive so soon after Machida Sonoko left, clearly having been waiting at the door for quite a while. “I’m not really sure about your relationship dynamics either.”

How could you not know?

"I'm not as amazing as you think."

“But you always manage to control the azure light so easily,” Eriri said, quite admiringly. She observed carefully and tried hard to imitate you, but she could never achieve the same effect. “Is there any secret?”

"He often pinched me too... he would pinch me."

Chapter 994 A Brave Attempt

"Let me think..." Kobayashi Megumi subconsciously tapped her forehead. "Do you want to be like me, taking the lead in your relationship with your lover?"

Her movements were exactly the same as Kobayashi Sora's. Eriri suppressed her urge to complain and nodded, "Mhm."

“I understand your thoughts,” Kobayashi Megumi patiently explained, “but I’m not as capable as you think. In fact, in life, he’s the one in control most of the time.”

"Huh?" What Kobayashi Megumi said was significantly different from Eriri's understanding. Eriri tilted her head and recalled seriously, "But I feel that most of the time he is the one who blushes because of you. A simple sentence can make his heart flutter."

“Think about it again,” Kobayashi Megumi reminded me with a smile, “What did he do before I said those words?”

"Hmm... sort out the company's problems, solve the troubles in life, take care of Lanlan, and give you a surprise... Ah!" Eriri showed a look of sudden realization.

“That’s exactly what I mean,” Kobayashi Megumi explained further. “He did a lot of things that moved me first, and that’s why I couldn’t help but say those words that touched him. So it seems like I’m in control, but actually he’s the one in control.”

“That seems to be the case… No!” Eriri shook her head, her gaze suddenly sharpening. “There are often situations where the roles are reversed, where you have the upper hand.”

"That makes sense, I don't really distinguish between them that clearly."

“This is exactly the effect I wanted,” Eriri’s lips moved, her azure eyes darting to the side, her delicate white fingers unconsciously twisting together. “When I’m with Shiho, it’s mostly…mostly her…and then I can only…um…”

"So you want to know how to express your love to her?"

“No… no, I mean control!” Eriri clenched her little fists. “The kind that sinks you in one blow.”

Kobayashi Megumi smiled slightly, "Then let's just express our thoughts truthfully."

"Huh? That simple?"

"Is it easy?" Kobayashi Megumi reminded her, "It's very embarrassing."

Eriri didn't notice at all.

“Think about it,” Kobayashi Megumi explained, “when drawing comics, if you want to move the readers, don’t you have to move yourself first?”

"of course."

“It’s the same in real life,” Kobayashi Megumi coaxed. “If you want to make the other person shy, you have to be shy first.”

Eriri pondered, "That makes sense."

"So don't be discouraged if you can't do it at first. Just try slowly and work hard little by little."

“I can do it!” Eriri said, displeased with Megumi Kobayashi’s coaxing tone. “I definitely can.”

"Mom~" Lin Lan called out sleepily, rubbing her eyes as she walked over.

"Lanlan," Kobayashi Megumi hugged her daughter, "Did Mommy wake you up?"

"No..." Little Lin Lan climbed onto her mother's lap with some effort. "Hmm... Lanlan is hungry~"

Eriri got up. "I'm going to buy some food."

"It shouldn't be necessary." Kobayashi Megumi glanced at the time. "Kōshō should be back soon."

The words had barely left her lips when the door opened, and Kobayashi Sora opened it, "The delicious food is here~"

"Daddy!" Lin Lan immediately perked up. "It smells so good!"

Kobayashi Sora entered the room and noticed Eriri, saying, "Your share is with Utaha."

Eriri smiled and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore~" and happily went back to her room.

Kobayashi Sora put down the food she had brought back. "Wasn't Eriri talking about drawing with Akane-nee?"

"She just asked me some questions..."

-

Express your thoughts truthfully.

Eriri ate her food in small bites, glancing towards Kasumigaoka Utaha's direction.

Noticing Eriri's gaze, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the object in front of her with a puzzled expression. "Don't you like it?"

"what?"

"food."

"I like it...it's delicious." Eriri took two big bites.

"Is there something on my face?" Kasumigaoka Utaha touched her lips with her fingertip. "What's stuck on you?"

"No......"

"Then why are you staring at me like that?"

Eriri retorted stubbornly, "Did I?"

"Don't want to admit it?"

"Who wouldn't want to admit it... Eh? No..." Eriri's pink cheeks puffed out slightly, "I like looking at you, so what? You won't let me look?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned forward slightly, getting closer to Eriri, "Go ahead, look at it a little longer if you like."

As Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly approached, Eriri's face immediately turned red, and memories of previous times when Kasumigaoka Utaha had approached her began to surface in her mind...

Utaha Kasumigaoka's gaze, which had been fixed on Eriri's eyes, flickered slightly downwards. She moved her lips slightly before taking another step closer to Eriri.

That's just how it is.

They'll end up kissing while they're looking at each other.

Eriri's long, curved eyelashes trembled slightly, and as always, she closed her eyes.

I felt a gentle touch on the corner of my mouth, and then... nothing more.

Eriri opened her eyes in surprise and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha's ambiguous smile.

Kasumigaoka Utaha lightly touched the corner of her mouth with her fingertip. "You have something stuck to your lips."

Eriri was so annoyed, "...Why didn't you just tell me directly?"

"Then it'll get on your hands, won't it?" Kasumigaoka Utaha's tongue brushed against her lips. "It's faster if I just help you directly."

Eriri glared at Kasumigaoka Utaha, about to reprimand her, when she suddenly remembered what Kobayashi Megumi had said. She bit her lower lip lightly, "But I want to kiss you, even though we're already so close..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was clearly taken aback, her face flushing slightly. "You really want a kiss that badly?"

It seems to be working.

Eriri's eyes lit up, and she pressed her advantage, "I really want to!"

"Alright then." Kasumigaoka Utaha closed her eyes. "I'll let you kiss me."

Eh?

Eriri was dumbfounded.

This seems to be quite different from what she expected.

Kasumigaoka Utaha closed one eye and opened the other. "What's wrong? Weren't we going to kiss?"

Eriri noticed the smile in Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes. "You did this on purpose! You know exactly what I'm thinking!"

“This isn’t the first time you’ve imitated Megumi,” Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled. “It’s easy to understand.”

"Gulp..." Eriri made a reluctant sound, "It didn't work after all."

Even with the same move, the effect can be drastically different when used by different people.

“Even though you’re not good at it, you still keep trying,” Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned forward and gently kissed Eriri’s lips. “Eriri is so cute, it makes me want to kiss her.”

Eriri is so unwilling to accept this.

The initiative has shifted back to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

But... this is not bad either.

Chapter 995 In the Still of the Night

pinch~

Kobayashi Sora rubbed her hands together to warm them, then skillfully kneaded Kobayashi Megumi's smooth calves. "Was today's exercise a little too much?"

If you don't get enough exercise normally, and then suddenly engage in strenuous exercise, you'll inevitably feel sore all over the next day.

A proper massage can provide some relief.

"Hmm~" Kobayashi Megumi's voice was soft and sweet. "Actually, it's alright. I usually exercise with you."

Kobayashi Sora's hands kept moving, "I'll press it too."

Xiaolin Lan came closer, her spirits lifted after a satisfying meal. "Lanlan, do you want a massage too?"

“Yes, right~” Kobayashi Megumi hugged her daughter and pinched her arms and legs. “Ranlan needs to have her legs rubbed too.”

"It tickles so much~" Little Lin Lan squirmed happily in her mother's arms.

Actually, there's no need for a special massage. Xiaolin Lan gets plenty of exercise every day, and today's amount of exercise is within a reasonable range.

Kobayashi Megumi's delicate skin captivated Kobayashi Sora, who wanted to massage it a little longer, but Kobayashi Megumi pressed her down onto the bed.

"It's my turn~" Kobayashi Megumi originally wanted to wait for Kobayashi Sora to finish pressing the button, but Kobayashi Sora was in high spirits and showed no intention of stopping, so she had no choice but to take the initiative.

She pressed Kobayashi Sora onto the bed, making him lie face down, while Kobayashi Megumi sat on Kobayashi Sora's waist, kneading his shoulders with both hands.

Xiao Linlan sat down next to him and patted his back with her small hands. "Daddy, does this feel good?"

"Super comfortable~" Kobayashi Sora sighed contentedly, resting her head on her arms.

Although the force was slightly insufficient, the enjoyment it brought was indescribable.
