In the anime series, Goto Ichiri is actually my childhood sweetheart?

There is a computer chair under the table, but there is also a small chair next to it. It seems that when Takahashi Feng is sitting in front of the computer, there is someone sitting next to him to keep him company.

And the person who accompanied him must have come here very often, otherwise this chair would not be placed under the table like this.

"Is it Yili? Yes, they seem to have known each other since kindergarten."

This room does not seem to be Takahashi Kaede's room alone, because Goto Ichiri's traces are too obvious, as if the two of them are the owners of this place.

Going back to the living room and looking at the dining table, I saw a pink quilt upside down next to a cup with a bear pattern on it.

Ying Lili sat obediently on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Not a very long time passed.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Holding a delicate omelette rice, Takahashi Kaede came out of the kitchen.

"It's okay, it won't be long."

Holding the water cup in both hands, Eriri responded while sitting upright on the sofa.

Takahashi Feng felt that Eriri was a little reserved.

After serving all the dishes, he pulled Ying Lili to the dining table.

"Why do you seem so weird? Are you being polite to me?"

The dishes on the table had just come out of the pot, some were still sizzling with oil and giving off a rich aroma.

The white hot steam diffused onto Ying Lili's face, making her feel a little dizzy.

She was a little reserved just now, but she didn't really have any other feelings. She wasn't jealous of Goto Ichiri, or like she wanted to leave her mark here too.

She just sighed a little, then sat on the sofa in a daze for a while.

In just a short while, Gao Qiaofeng prepared a table of food.

She suddenly understood why Takahashi Kaede was worried that Goto Ichiri would not be able to take care of himself in the future.

Being taken care of like this every day, even she would easily become spoiled!

After dinner, Ryoko hadn't come back yet.

After leaving some food for her, Takahashi Feng brought Eriri to the workshop.

The decoration there was pitch black. The moment the door was opened, several human-shaped objects were reflected on the wall by the light, as if the soul of a deceased person suddenly appeared in the room. Eriri was so scared that she hugged Takahashi Kaede.

"Don't be afraid, it's a dummy, a dummy."

Turning on the light, a bunch of bald dummies appeared before her.

Chapter 43 Haircut

Since it is a practice, then you must make all the preparations. After buying the wig, you naturally cannot forget about the dummy.

Ying Lili puffed out her cheeks and glared at Takahashi Feng. She really couldn't bear the sudden scare.

"My problem, my problem, my family members were also frightened before, and we were going to cover it with cloth in two days, but you came too suddenly, and we were not prepared."

Takahashi Feng walked into the workshop and carried the dummy to the corner.

The dust can be clearly seen under the dim yellow light. If you ignore the unfinished figures on the work desk, the atmosphere in the room is even a bit like the Baker Mansion in Resident Evil 7.

"That's the workbench. Figures and other small items are usually made on it."

Gao Qiaofeng gestured and brought a chair.

The chair has been modified and seems to be made to be more suitable for hair cutting, and the backrest is also very close to the body shape of an elementary school girl.

"Can two sticks and three planks be used to craft a wooden pickaxe?"

"Don't bring your gaming mindset into reality! Come on, sit on it. How long do you want to stay?"

"You don't want to wash your hair?"

Ying Lili sat obediently in the chair and tilted her head to ask.

"Squeak-squeak-"

A spray bottle appeared in Gaoqiao Feng's hand, and the small water droplets sprayed out were fine and numerous, and the air suddenly became humid.

"Ah... that's how long it will be then."

Ying Lili pointed out a moderate length.

Come to think of it, she hadn't cut her hair for a long time.

The translucent hair-cutting cape was wrapped around Eriri's neck, the main lights in the room were turned off, and the workshop's unique lampshade was turned on, covering Eriri.

Just like a dancer on stage under the spotlight.

The headband was untied, and a wet and cool feeling came from the top of the head, followed by a tingling sensation as the comb ran through the hair.

"Eri, your hair is in great shape."

The long golden hair is connected into a piece with uniform thickness and no split ends. It is as silky as silk and reflects the golden color under the light.

"Feng, why are you like Tony in the barber shop, praising people first before cutting their hair?"

"This shows that I am very professional."

The sound of scissors clicking sounded rhythmically, and golden hair fell to the ground.

Takahashi Kaede's technique was not very skillful, but his hands were very steady, so steady that the Takahashi Kaede that Eriri saw in the mirror was almost motionless except for his hands.

In less than half an hour, the hair was trimmed. He took Yinglili to the bathroom to wash her hair again, twisted out the fine hair on her neck that could not be washed off, and then blew her hair dry.

Let Eriri sit still while Takahashi Feng combed her hair and finally tied a hairband on it.

"What do you think? The little girl looks better with shorter hair, so delicate."

Takahashi Feng took out a small mirror and held it in front of Eriri.

The bangs are messy, the temples are covered by a small tuft of hair, and the two ponytails hang down at a moderate length, making her look delicate and smart.

"That's amazing, it feels the same as a haircut in a barber shop...even better." Ying Lili said in surprise.

"This? How could you let me cut it without even confirming my skills? Aren't you afraid that I might mess it up?"

"I was a little worried, but the result was much better than I expected."

"You are so careless. I thought you were willing to let me help you after seeing the results of a haircut. Better than the one in the barber shop? Of course! You are not a regular customer, so efficiency is not important. I will definitely help you cut your hair carefully."

Takahashi Feng tapped Eriri's eyebrows twice with his fingers.

"I'm not careless! I just...just...I bite!"

Eriri was so angry that she bit Takahashi Kaede's arm.

"It hurts, stop biting. Do you hear footsteps? Ryoko will be back soon."

The familiar sound of high heels came from outside. It should be Ryoko coming back from get off work.

"Is Ryoko your aunt?"

Seeing this, Eriri also relaxed and used paper to wipe the saliva on Takahashi Kaede's arm.

"Ah."

The door to the living room was opened and Ryoko came back with a bag of fruit.

"Xiao Feng, look what I brought... Hey, are there guests at home? Why is there an extra pair of shoes?"

With Ryoko's observation skills, she saw Eriri's little leather shoes as soon as she entered the door, which were obviously not something they had at home.

"Hello, Auntie. I'm Sawamura Spencer Eriri, Kaede's classmate."

"Oh, welcome, come and have some fruit. Xiao Feng, has she eaten yet? Does she want to come to our house for dinner?"

Eriri was very polite and Ryoko was a little surprised. She kept talking like a typical parent.

"She's already eaten, and she came to our house to ask me to cut her hair."

"When did you become a barber again? Being a carpenter isn't enough, you want to branch out, right?"

Takahashi Feng pushed Ryoko to the dining table and brought over the food that had been kept warm.

"Alright, alright, don't worry about it and eat. I learned how to cut hair for Yili. You come home so late every day and you've never been to the workshop, so how would you know?"

Feeling that Ryoko was a little concerned that he didn't tell her about the haircut, Takahashi Feng explained.

"Do I have to ask you to do even a haircut? You should handle these matters by yourself. I believe you can handle them."

"Okay - let's not talk about this, Eriri-chan, are you a foreigner? Your last name is very famous, it seems to be a British aristocratic last name."

"No, I grew up in Japan. As for my last name...my father is a diplomat and now lives in Japan. I don't know the details of this last name, but maybe it's related to my ancestors."

"Is that so? Xiao Feng, why do you always bring beautiful girls home? You should control yourself a little."

"Why are you restraining yourself? What are you talking about to a fourth grade boy, Ryoko?"

"What, what? Does Feng often bring girls home?"

"No! It's just you and Ichiri. Ryoko you really like to have fun!"

Seeing Eriri's big reaction, Ryoko secretly turned her face away and her body trembled slightly.

Eriri seemed to not believe what he said and kept asking, and Takahashi Feng's face turned bitter.

After a quarrel, Ryoko finished her meal and helped Takahashi Kaede out of the predicament.

"I was just joking. Xiao Feng doesn't have many friends, so how come there are so many people coming to play at home?"

“It hurts to say that.”

"I was just teasing you. I didn't expect you to take the bait. Haha... Ouch, don't twist my temple. It hurts!"

Ryoko was retaliated by Takahashi Kaede and was immediately defeated and surrendered.

"It's getting late. Let me take you home. Your mother will be worried if you're any later."

Chapter 44: Sense of Disjunction and Security

Finally, walking on the moonlight, Takahashi Kaede sent Eriri all the way back home.

"Aunt Ryoko is really... an interesting person."

"Everyone who has met her says so. See you tomorrow."

"Well, see you tomorrow!"

The iron gate of the courtyard was closed and Gaoqiao Feng returned home alone.

Ryoko had a serious expression on her face as she sat on the sofa waiting for Takahashi Kaede to come back.

As soon as he entered the door, Ryoko patted the sofa and motioned for him to sit down.

"Xiao Feng, that girl just now must have a crush on you. You always go out of your way to help others, making them owe you something. What if you can't stop doing it in the end?"

Knowing that Takahashi Kaede was surprisingly mature, Ryoko didn't beat around the bush with him and asked the question directly.

"It's the same with Yili. It's not good to be so indecisive. Xiaofeng, I don't want you to become a person in my company who is a bunch of painters and hangs around beautiful girls all day long."

"It's the 21st century, we are in Japan, a family consists of a husband and a wife."

Takahashi Feng didn't expect that Ryoko had concerns in this regard, and looked a little shocked.

"What's wrong? Isn't that the case? Tell me what you think. I've been too busy working overtime recently, and I haven't talked to you for a long time. It's a good opportunity for us to have a good chat."

Gao Qiaofeng took a deep breath. Although he felt that he was somewhat wronged, it was better to clarify some misunderstandings.

"Ryoko, first of all, I want to make one thing clear. Although it may sound hypocritical, it's not that I only want to make friends with girls, but it just so happens that all the friends I make are girls."

Boys of this age are very competitive, self-aware, and too noisy, so it is difficult for them to get along with Takahashi Kaede, who is a taciturn person.

And there is no opportunity to make friends with him. Maybe Akitomo can be considered a friend, but after all, he is a person who likes to do his own things and will not take the initiative to interact with others.

"Secondly, I think since we are friends, we should be sincere and give help whenever possible. Eriri has helped me before, so it is only natural for me to do things for her. We cannot deliberately distance ourselves from others just because we are worried about something that is imaginary and cannot be proven by anyone. I think this is disrespectful to friends."

Gao Qiaofeng has only made these few friends in these two lives, so she naturally cherishes them.

"Finally, this is my personal opinion. I think people don't really remember what they did in fourth grade. Even most people, when they reach high school or college, may not remember much about the people and things they came into contact with in elementary school."

"So even if, I mean even if, Eriri may like me now, but maybe she will be separated into different streams in junior high school and lose contact for a semester, she may not even remember who I am."
