Great, we're doomed now!

But that's the confidence of the victor!

"Little Shou..."

"Mmm, it's Master's scent."

“su…”

“su?”

“Suki (likes)…”

Chika, drooling, mumbled sleepily, "I like... Mamoru... I like him the most, hehe..."

Liuli gazed at her calmly.

"Let's... stay together forever."

Yes, I will.

Although they were childhood sweethearts.

What a pity~

Liuli stroked Qianhua's head with "affection," and the pure, innocent, and carefree girl's appearance gave her a strange sense of pleasure.

The maid opened her mouth, her voice tinged with arrogance: "If only I had said that sooner... Miss Fujiwara Chika~"

-

"Awoo~~~"

Seeing Zi sit up with a yawn, stretching lazily, and turning her head to look, she found that Qianhua was still sleeping in a very bad position, with the blankets all tangled up, while Liuli was nowhere to be seen.

She scratched her head in confusion:

I had a feeling that someone went out last night, but was it just my imagination?

do not care!

She yawned again and saw that Zi had gotten up to tidy up. Since they were in their hometown in the countryside, they didn't need to be too fancy. She only brought some travel-specific skincare products and toiletries in her backpack.

She went to the restroom with her makeup bag, and when she opened the door, she saw a shirtless man standing there—

"what!"

"Ok?"

"Hisashi-kun! I'm sorry, I didn't know there were people inside!"

Seeing that Zi had quickly closed the door, his heart pounded: "Oops, what a mistake!"

“This is your home, no need to be so nervous. After all, there’s no ‘in use’ sign here,” Ye Shou said with a smile. “I hope I haven’t left you with a bad impression of the male body.”

"Forehead!"

"My pajamas are dirty, I want to change my clothes."

"No... cough! Um, please enjoy your meal."

Seeing that her face was a little hot, she quickly shook her head vigorously.

Just then, she saw Liuli carrying a stack of ironed clothes. She greeted the maid and quickly bowed her head to pass by.

Arriving at the room her mother-in-law used to use, she saw her daughter sitting in front of the mirror and breathed a sigh of relief. While combing her hair, she couldn't help but recall the scene from just now:

There's nothing inconvenient about it; it's just a view from behind.

However... a man's upright posture is completely different from a woman's. If the latter is like a soft bow, then Ye Shou is like a hunting bow made of composite materials. Every muscle is full of power, and they are connected together without feeling cumbersome.

It was just a fleeting glimpse, but it left a particularly deep impression!

"Speaking of which, even during the holidays, does Rurikawa-san still have to take care of Kuze-san?"

Jianzi only knew that Liuli was Ye Shou's maid, but based on common sense, she only thought it was like a part-time job, and did not know that Liuli actually lived at home and followed Ye Shou around the clock.

Liuli, who had soiled her pajamas, changed clothes early in the morning to prepare everyday clothes for Ye Shou...

He seemed to have an idea, but couldn't quite grasp it, and gave up after seeing Zi try hard to think about it.

Chapter 107 The Attack of the Tanuki!

As Ye Shou was leaving, he saw a large black cat huddled in the pet "house" in the yard, and the two of them even looked at each other.

This cat is so meticulous!

The overnight trip would go unnoticed, allowing the visit to the grandmother without causing trouble for the Yotsuya family—after all, an animal of that size appearing at the hospital would definitely cause a big stir!

"I've already given the order to prepare the finest cat food for you. Someone will bring it to you as soon as we leave, so don't worry."

Ye Shou stroked the black cat's fur, which was still damp with dew, and felt a little regretful as his hands became wet.

"Meow~"

The big cat nodded, licked its paw, and then lay down peacefully on the floor and started purring.

This surprised Ye Shou: cats are indeed playful and lazy by nature, and he could feel this in Xiao Hei, but when it came to doing things, it was methodical and clearly followed some rules... This contradiction was quite interesting.

"You'd better watch the house today."

"Meow..."

Soon, a car that had been arranged arrived to pick up Ye Shou and the others. Although they had been told to keep a low profile, the appearance of three foreign luxury cars in such a small village, one of which was carrying a "man in sunglasses and a suit," who was clearly a bodyguard, gave Aunt Jianzi a little shock.

Ye Shou had previously mentioned her family name during her self-introduction, but she clearly didn't associate it with the famous "Kuji". This made her constantly want to ask her niece what was going on in the car, but she was afraid of revealing her ignorance and being laughed at by her classmates. She was quite restless throughout the journey and didn't even notice the difference between the luxury car and the ordinary sedan.

The hospital wasn't large, and it wasn't nearly as busy as the ones in the city. Most of the patients were elderly people coming to pick up their medications as usual. Young people were rarely seen, including doctors, nurses, and other staff. This was to be expected.

Ye Shourang for his men to stay outside and drive to a more distant location so as not to cause trouble for the hospital staff at the entrance. He himself took the gifts and went up to the third floor of the hospital to visit Jianzi's grandmother.

"Hey, Miko-chan~ You're here~"

The old woman sat on the bed, the bright sunlight shining on her full head of silver hair, giving her smiling face a warm and comforting feel. She had a soft cushion behind her back and looked to be in good spirits.

Are these handsome and adorable children your classmates?

"Hello, I'm Miko's friend, you can just call me Chika!" Ms. Fujiwara was as energetic as ever.

"I am Chun."

"Grandma, I'm Ye Shou. I came with Yotsuya this time. Thank you for your help."

"No, I'm very happy to be able to talk to so many young people. It makes me feel energetic, haha~"

When the old man smiled, the wrinkles on his face became particularly deep, as if you could see the passage of time on them, but he did not have any air of decay. Instead, he gave people an impression of being talkative and energetic.

"Mother-in-law, you seem to be in a good mood."

Jianzi sat affectionately by the bed, carefully peeling oranges for his grandmother.

The mother-in-law smiled happily: "You know, you rarely see outsiders in the countryside. You only see familiar faces, so there's not much to talk about."

"I heard from Yotsuya that you really enjoy trying new things, Grandma. Actually, besides visiting you and getting some fresh air, we also have another small matter to discuss with you..."

Ye Shou explained the "elderly assistance service" to her. He thought it would take some explaining, but his mother-in-law readily agreed.

"If I could get out of this bed sooner, that would be the best thing ever. Not only am I feeling bored, but my family is also worried."

The mother-in-law touched the back of her hand: "There's still Little Black to take care of~"

No, cats that big... who would take care of whom?

"Oh right, Grandma, Xiao Hei came back with us this time too."

"I know, I already saw it last night."

"What?" Jianzi exclaimed in surprise. "But yesterday..."

"It was a dream."

The old woman patted Jianzi's head and said, "I dreamt that Xiao Hei came to see me."

"Oh... Grandma, you really like Xiao Hei." Jianzi smiled helplessly.

"It's very smart!" the old woman said with a sigh. "Sometimes I feel like it can understand what I'm saying."

"No doubt about it, they really can understand," Ye Shou thought to himself.

Ye Shou suddenly felt something moving around at his feet. He glanced down and saw a tail sweep past before disappearing under the bed.

He pretended to tie his shoelaces, then subtly glanced under the bed, his eyes widening slightly.

It was a calico cat with a faint glow, its expression peaceful and serene. After making eye contact with Ye Shou, it even let out a cute "meow."

But that's not the point. The point is that it has two tails!

"Nekomatsuri"... It doesn't seem to be an evil spirit, but rather a pet that still cherishes its owner after dying of old age and becomes a guardian spirit. However, compared to a powerful spirit, Nekomatsuri is ultimately a bit weak.

Ye Shou straightened up thoughtfully: Could it be that Xiao Hei cares so much about his mother-in-law? This old lady must be very good to pets, otherwise she wouldn't have raised a cat.

"Xiao Shou? What are you thinking about?"

Qianhua's voice brought Ye Shou back to his senses, and he quickly smiled.

"It's nothing, just some business."

Suddenly, the entire hospital trembled slightly, and everyone fell silent, instinctively looking up at the ceiling.

"An earthquake?"

"It doesn't seem too serious."

—As Japanese people, they are very familiar with this.

There was no strong tremor, which may have been due to an accident during construction, and no one paid much attention to it.

Only Ye Shou's expression changed slightly, his brows slowly furrowed, and he turned his gaze to the window, his focus seemingly on some extremely distant place.

"This is……"

He slowly stood up, walked to the window amidst the puzzled gazes of those around him, and turned his neck, searching for something.

In a split second, his eyes widened and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Little Guard?"

"Lord Ye Shou?"

The two girls wanted to ask him what was going on, but soon they heard noises coming from outside the ward. At first, the noises were faint, but then they quickly inflated like balloons, making everyone wary.
