My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

"Wish me a happy birthday soon."

"Happy birthday to you."

"Thank you. I'll make up for the birthday present later. So, your birthday is those two days?" Since the birthday was mentioned suddenly, the matter must be related to it.

"Almost there, just come over here."

"So...two birthdays, the only conclusion I can come up with is that you gave birth to your head in the middle of the night on the 13th and your lower body on the 14th? Are all fox births this bumpy? Well, you are a fox spirit, so we can't generalize. I understand."

"There's no need for these weird ideas. My birthday is only on the 13th, but you also need to make time for the 14th."

"why?"

You'll find out then.

"I understand. I'm sure I'll get what's coming to me."

"almost."

"What do you mean by 'almost'? That would cost two favors."

"One."

"Two."

"One."

"Two."

...After a long tug-of-war, Shiraishi Sawa's sukiyaki had already been served, and it wouldn't taste good if it didn't get cold soon.

"One."

"One is fine, but you're being unreasonable!"

"You're the best, baby dog. Come to my house for a dinner party on the 13th. I'll let you know the specific time and details later."

"receive."

"So when exactly is your birthday?" "Don't tell me yesterday, today, or tomorrow. If you don't tell me, I'll ask my family to find out for me."

Upon seeing the message that had just been sent, Shiraishi Sawa silently deleted the 'tomorrow' he had typed.

October 28th.

"Got it, bye-bye!"

Shiraishi Sawa finally turned off the screen and placed the phone on the table. The other three had already started eating, and Oki Taichi had already finished half of his meal.

"What are you talking about, Shiraishi?" Taichi Oki asked while slurping noodles from his sukiyaki.

"It's nothing, a friend just needs to talk to me."

"So you're not going to work? It's already a bit tiring for me to be in charge of an entire teaching building all by myself."

Upon hearing this, Soga Kirei also looked at Shiraishi Zexiu, her eyes showing a hint of nervousness.

"That's not true. With such a good income, I'm definitely going to finish this job." Shiraishi Sawah pressed the slices of meat back into the sukiyaki broth to heat it up.

"That's fine."

"President, aren't you dipping it in egg wash?"

Shiraishi Sawa saw that Soga Kirei hadn't touched one of the sterile eggs that came with sukiyaki, and asked curiously.

"I don't like raw eggs, Shiraishi-kun, would you like some?"

"You can cook it."

I don't like to eat the yolks of hard-boiled eggs either.

"Really?! President, I didn't expect we'd be kindred spirits. I don't like egg yolks either."

"What a coincidence! I'm also a protein lover, I usually don't eat egg yolks!" Taichi Oki excitedly tried to join the conversation, but immediately received a death stare from Yoshiko Shimizu.

Oh no, I misspoke. I guess I'm not qualified to join the protein party.

"I need to use the restroom." Taichi Oki immediately realized how to salvage the situation, and sure enough, the murderous intent in Mizuki's gaze faded considerably.

Completely bewildered, Shiraishi Sawa Hide took the egg from Soga Kirei's hand:

"But the yolk from one egg is enough for me. I'll try to boil a soft-boiled egg today. I can accept that kind of yolk. Hey, do you want to eat it?"

"Ah."

Shiraishi Sawa took a big bite of two pieces of tofu skin, making room for an egg, and dropped the egg into it.

"According to information found online, boiling in water for about five minutes will produce a sterile egg. If the heat of the sukiyaki pot is not strong enough, boiling for five minutes will definitely not make it fully cooked."

"These are pasteurized eggs that can be eaten raw, so it's okay if they're a little runny!"

Shiraishi Sawah was genuinely impressed with his perfect plan and snapped his fingers.

"Hmm!" Soga Kirei tried to imitate Shiraishi Sawa's movements, but unfortunately, she couldn't snap her fingers. She rubbed them together several times without making a sound.

"President, I'll teach you a finger-snapping technique that you can learn in no time," said Shiraishi Sawah upon seeing this.

Soga Kirei tilted her head slightly, looking at Shiraishi Sawa with great interest, "How do you do it?"

"The first step is to place your index finger on top of your middle finger."

"The second step is to press your thumb against your middle finger and rub your fingers together quickly so that your middle finger hits the palm where your thumb is."

Soga Kirei tried again, but there was still no sound. She looked at Shiraishi Zexiu with longing eyes.

Shiraishi Sawa had anticipated this, "We haven't finished teaching yet, Chairman."

"The third step is to make a 'click' sound with your tongue the moment your middle finger strikes the target, pretending that you have successfully snapped your fingers."

Shiraishi Sawa demonstrated it on the spot, and I must say, it was quite loud.

"President and Vice President, don't just laugh. Is this the sound of snapping your fingers? If you don't like the 'click' sound, you can choose other sounds."

"Thank you, Shiraishi-kun, but I'll snap my fingers." Shimizu Yoshiko smiled and snapped her fingers, making a louder sound than Shiraishi Sawah had snapped them with all his might.

"Snap!" Soga Kirei lowered her head and snapped her fingers in the same way as Shiraishi Sawa.

"Crunch!" "Crunch!" "Crunch!"

In some ways, they do look quite similar, and sometimes they can really be mistaken for the real thing. Soga no Kirei hit three more times.

"President, don't snap too many." Shiraishi Zexiu also made three 'cluck' sounds and said, "If you snap too many, you'll become a chicken, not snap your fingers."

"Miko, you can't use your hands, you snap your fingers with your mouth too," Soga Kiriren said, looking up at Shimizu Miko across from her.

"Mist Lotus attacks without hesitation."

The number of chickens increased from two to three.

Fortunately, it was a new shop, and there weren't many customers. They were all seated several tables apart, so no one noticed the strange flock of chickens.

So when Taichi Oki returned, the flock of chickens had grown by one more.

"Wait! My child, my egg!"

Shiraishi Sawa suddenly remembered that he had also planned to cook a soft-boiled egg.

I quickly checked the timer on my phone. Thankfully, only four and a half minutes had passed, and the time hadn't expired yet. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shiraishi, do you have any other interesting moves?" Taichi Oki, who had learned to snap his fingers, was very curious about this, and the two girls' attention was also drawn to him.

“I’ll teach him later. I’ll focus on my child first.” Shiraishi Zexiu said, his eyes fixed on her child.

Five minutes later, Shiraishi Sawa immediately used a net to scoop out the eggs and placed them on the table to cool.

Then came the moment to witness a miracle:

Golden Legend!

It was a success, but not a complete success.

As Shiraishi Sawa carefully opened the eggshell, a soft-boiled egg slid out.

The four people looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Actually, my goal was to get the onsen tamago (hot spring egg), so I declare: success!" said Shiraishi Sawa Hide.

"Then it's a success!" Soga Kirei echoed, and began to applaud.

Chapter 160 The bonus that arrived was naturally used to improve life.

Holding a bottle of water, Shiraishi Sawa and Oki Taichi returned to the mission teaching building. Soga Kirei seemed to be avoiding being alone with herself, and after lunch, she dragged Shimizu Yoshiko to continue her work.

The clothes they were wearing were almost ruined, but the president said that all the remaining funds on the last day would be distributed as bonuses to everyone. She would also keep an extra portion for herself and Taichi Oki, the two main people who were painting the walls. The other people who came to work did not have any objections to this.

Exchanging old clothes for money is a good deal!

"come on."

After encouraging each other, the two went back to their respective classrooms.

Without anyone's help, it would take about half an hour to fill a classroom.

Compared to my classmates who are out mowing lawns and decorating, my job, where I can work with the air conditioning on, is pretty good.

"Click".

The door was pushed open, and Soga Kirei cautiously walked in.

"Shiraishi, please put the latex paint bucket on the ground. I've inspected it and I can continue helping now."

It seems they've finally mentally prepared themselves.

He restarted the music that had stopped in the morning, and Shiraishi Sawah's movements became lighter and more agile to the music.

--

At 5 p.m., the workday ended, and everyone gathered again at the school gate.

A few minutes later, Shimizu Yoshiko and Soga Kirei arrived.

"I just checked everyone's work progress. Today was pretty good, and most of you have completed your tasks in full. I hope you all keep it up. Your salaries will be paid to your bank cards after all our tasks are completed."

If anyone decides they don't want to continue today, or if they have something to do on another day, please let us know in the group chat. We will then find a replacement, and the salary will be paid according to the previous workload. However, please do not skip work without notifying us, as this will result in a deduction from your pay!

That's all, let's call it a day!
