Before reaching the mansion, a young-looking woman in a red kimono, exuding a mature aura, walked towards him.

"Ah, you're finally here, Xiao Ganye. I've been waiting for you for a long time~" the woman in kimono spoke in a gentle voice with a bright smile between her eyebrows.

Facing the mature woman who greeted him warmly, Gan Ye smiled gently and nodded politely to her.

"Long time no see, Aunt Sayuri."

"Really? I've told you several times to call me sister, why are you so disobedient~" The girl named Sayuri looked at Kanye with dissatisfaction while puffing her face. She seemed to be very dissatisfied with the way Kanye addressed her.

To this, Kanaya could only respond with an awkward smile.

That's right, the woman in front of him, who looked too young and not much older than Eriri, was none other than Eriri's mother - Sayuri Sawamura.

A Japanese beauty full of Yamato Nadeshiko temperament.

"Thank you Aunt Sayuri for the invitation. This is just a small gift, my humble opinion." Gan Ye smiled and handed the cake in the gift box to Sayuri.

Taking the beautifully wrapped gift box from Kan'ye's hand, Sayuri Sawamura's nose moved slightly, and a sweet scent entered her sense of smell, and the smile on her face suddenly became even wider.

"Oh, Kanye-chan is really sensible. He knows that I love cakes the most. This fragrance is definitely from your craftsmanship, Kanye-chan." Sayuri Sawamura, who has tasted Kanye-chan's desserts more than once, immediately guessed that the cake in her hand was made by Kanye-chan. "It's been a long time since I had a dessert made by you, Kanye-chan. I've been craving for it for a while. Why don't you just marry my daughter Eriri home? That way, I can eat your cakes every day."

"What are you talking about, Mom!" Eriri heard the noise and just came out of the room and heard her mother selling her daughter. She rushed down from the second floor with a blushing face and complained to Sayuri Sawamura.

He seemed quite angry, at least from Mikiya's perspective.

"Don't listen to my mother's nonsense, Kan'ye. This guy just wants to take advantage of your cooking skills for free!" Eriri blushed and grabbed Kan'ye's wrist. She glared at her mother angrily and tried to pull Kan'ye to her room.

"Oh, oh, oh, how can Eriri say that about her mother? Girls are really hard to keep when they grow up. Once they have a man, they forget their mother~" Sayuri Sawamura looked at Eriri's reaction and pretended to cry with a smile between her eyebrows.

"Um..." Suddenly, Ying Lili staggered and turned around to look at her mother with a face full of shame and anger.

Sayuri Sawamura also covered her delicate face with her white hands, secretly revealing a little bit of her face and sticking out her tongue mischievously at Eriri.

It turns out that teasing your own daughter is the most fun.

"Haha, Aunt Sayuri, please stop teasing us. You should know that Eriri has..." Gan Ye didn't finish his words. Some things are better said briefly. If he said it all, Eriri would probably look at him with resentment and use her ponytail airflow to slash him.

This is the experience Kanye has gathered from spending such a long time with Eriri, but this time it seems different from what he imagined.

"...Let's go and talk in the room." Eriri was silent for a moment and pulled Mikiya harder.

"Have fun, and don't forget to come down for dinner later." This was Sayuri Sawamura's voice, and it didn't sound as joyful as before.

Kan'ya looked at Eriri who was getting angry for no apparent reason and felt a little confused.

It seems that Ying Lili is very irritable today. Did she just wake up?

"Eri, are you angry?"

"No, come up quickly!"

Well, he is angry indeed.

Looking at Eriri's familiar tsundere reaction, Gan Ye made this judgment.

Although I don't know how I have offended the other person, I should just follow Eriri's pace at this time.

Looking at Kan'ya and Eriri struggling to get back to the second floor, Sayuri Sawamura, who was originally smiling and waving her hands, sighed, and the smile on her face turned into worry for her daughter.

It's okay for Gan, after all, the perception formed over such a long time cannot be changed in a day or two, but Ying Lili is a little too slow. Can't she realize it even after such a long time? If she continues like this, Xiao Gan will be snatched away by other girls.

Sayuri Sawamura could see through her daughter's inner state at a glance, and walked towards the kitchen with concern for her daughter.

On the second floor, in Eriri's room—

He still looks like a otaku. Looking at the various otaku games on the shelves, the neatly arranged figures, and the scattered drawings on the table, Gan Ye exclaimed.

Then, he looked at Eriri, who had slammed the door shut and was still glaring at him angrily, and scratched his head helplessly.

"Why are you so angry today? You didn't just get up, did you?"

"I've already told you I'm not angry, so why are you nagging me?" Ying Lili said coquettishly, then sat on her bed, picked up the Fat Otaku Happy Water on the table next to her, unscrewed the lid and took a big gulp.

Eriri didn't know what was wrong with her, but she was very angry. When she heard what Kanye had just said, she didn't feel happy at all, but just inexplicable anger.

How strange, isn't it?

Ying Lili thought of a possibility, but then suddenly denied it.

Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible...right?

The cool carbonic acid calmed the girl's restless heart a little, and her raised brows also relaxed, and she soon returned to normal.

Looking up at Mikiya, Eriri noticed something and raised her eyebrows with a teasing smile on her face.

"You still have the nerve to criticize me? You're the one who looks sleep deprived. What's wrong? Did you stay up late playing games again?"

"No, I'll tell you about it later. Ha - let me take a nap for a while." Gan also yawned.

When he was chatting with Aunt Sayuri just now, he was still able to pretend to be energetic, but now in front of Eriri, his own person, his fatigue after being tortured all night was finally exposed.

"Go ahead, go ahead. I'll finish my draft first and call you later."

"Well, please."

Ganye grabbed the cushion next to the game console, leaned against Eriri's bed, sniffed the scent of girlish fragrance in the room, and slowly closed his eyes.

Really, it's not possible to sleep at a girl's house.

Looking at Kanye sleeping carefree in his room, Eriri thought speechlessly.

It's not that I'm complaining. After all, this is a common thing. In the past, when the two of us went to each other's homes to play, we would rest directly like this when we were tired.

Although they were a little embarrassed at first, they both got used to it over time.

Sometimes Eriri even forgot that Kan'ya was still a man. They played games together, discussed the plots of the books together, and worked hard together on deadline days, as if she really treated Kan'ya as a close friend.

Sure enough, it was because of this kind of relationship that I had this illusion. Is that right?

Ying Lili thought so.

If Sayuri Sawamura knew what her daughter was thinking now, she would probably sigh with a look of disappointment and then sigh:

My daughter, please be more careful.

Chapter 161: Digital Tablet and Hand-drawing

Even though he asked Eriri to wake him up when it was about time, Kan'ye just took a short nap and woke up alone.

Ganye slowly opened his eyes, and glanced at the blanket on himself with his slightly dazed eyes. Then he looked at Eriri, who was lying on the table with her back to him and working hard with her glasses on, and stretched lazily.

The time on the clock didn't move much, and he only slept for an hour, but it was enough.

After folding the blanket neatly and placing it on Yinglili's bed, he jumped up from the ground and stretched his stiff body.

It seemed that Eriri was too engrossed in the whole thing, and even Kanye's actions failed to attract her attention.

Kanye came forward, took a look at the picture that Eriri was sketching, nodded with appreciation, and then stretched out his hand:

"Lift your head higher, do you think your myopia is not high enough?"

"It's so annoying. Are you my mom?" Although she was startled by the sudden touch on her forehead, after realizing it was Mikiya, Eriri didn't react much.

He just raised his head a little bit as Kanye's hand did, but he continued to work on the draft with the brush in his hand.

Seeing that Eriri had raised her head to a normal height, Kan'aya stopped disturbing the girl's inspiration and helped her organize her scattered drawings as usual. Then he took out Eriri's digital tablet with ease.

After entering the password which was not a secret to either of them, he opened Eriri's notebook and began to work on his own creation.

Although there is still some time before Xia CM, it is still better to finish drawing the book as soon as possible.

Come to think of it, at the beginning he seemed to have used the excuse that Xia CM wanted to draw a brother and sister, and tricked Sagiri into wanting to "confess" in order to get his first crystal, and then he promised Sagiri that he would show her this work later.

Although this excuse fell apart after her identity was exposed, and Sagiri probably didn't even remember it.

But I'd better finish the book, just in case Sagiri suddenly remembers it later.

"But which one should I choose~"

Gan Ye opened his mobile phone and entered terms such as "anime" and "sister" on it. He closed his eyes as he watched the search options pop up one by one.

The finger casually swiped across the screen, and then clicked at a certain time.

He opened his eyes and looked at the character he had randomly chosen, and Gan tilted his head.

The fiery red long ponytails and the white hairband make her look lively and smart. The innocent and cute expression on her face makes people feel good about her.

Kotori Itsuka is indeed a very good choice.

"The character of Kotori's brother and sister... feels a little monotonous. Why not just let Shidou wear women's clothes and make him look like a pseudo-yuri?" He muttered to himself while sketching simple lines on the digital tablet.

Anyway, just draw a rough draft first, and then carefully revise the storyboard and so on.

As a professional fan artist, although she may not have been exposed to this field for as long as Eriri, she is definitely not inferior to the other in terms of experience.

Soon, Gan entered into his own creative state. He began to throw everything out of his mind except the picture on the screen in front of him and devoted his full attention to the creation.

In a room filled with the atmosphere of girlishness, two creators were quietly working on their creations.

Time passes minute by minute...

"Hmm, that's about it. I'll continue with the rest in the afternoon." Looking at the draft on the screen which was far from being a work, Gan Ye put down the pressure-sensitive pen and moved his wrist slightly.

No matter what, it’s not something that can be completed in just a few hours, so just take your time.

"Hmph~ Is this Kotori's book this time? Why did you change it to a complete book?" Eriri's voice sounded beside him, and Kan'ye turned around to look.

Just like what Kanye had just done, Eriri started lying on the bed with her head tilted, staring at the draft on his screen and making casual comments without knowing when.

"It's just a whim. Have you figured it out?"

"How is that possible? It's just that we're out of drawing paper and I forgot to replenish it. Come with me this afternoon." Ying Lili said with an embarrassed face, and following the girl's white fingertips, Gan Ye looked at the table.

I don't know when, the originally empty wastebasket was filled with balls of waste manuscripts.

Gan Ye reached out and picked up one at random, opened it, looked at the exquisite line drawing on it, and raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"Eri, your drawing skills have improved again. By the way, what's wrong with this draft? I don't see any problem with it." This draft happened to be one of the drawings that Kanye had helped to organize before. He took a look at it and didn't find any problems that required it to be scrapped and redrawn.

"Thank you for the compliment. It's actually nothing. I just feel like I haven't reached my limit yet." Eriri acted indifferently, as if she was talking about something very ordinary.

"It's nothing... Eriri, it seems that the internal conflict has finally happened between us?" Kanye said pretending to be heartbroken.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Are you going or not?"

"Of course I went. By the way, I seem to have never seen you use a drawing tablet to draw. Wouldn't it be more convenient this way?" The drawing tablet in Kanye's hand was specially prepared by Eriri for Kanye to draw when he came to his house.

We went to buy it together, along with Kanye's digital tablet.

At least Gan had never seen Eriri use it.

"I'm just not used to it. After all, I've been hand-drawing since I was a child, so it's more convenient for me." Eriri explained, her beautiful eyes staring at the drawings that were not perfect for her. A trace of nostalgia and... sadness flashed in her eyes?

"Really?" Ganye nodded.

Everyone has their own habits. Since Eriri didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask any more questions. However, as a childhood sweetheart who had been with Eriri for several years, he probably guessed why.

I picked up my phone and checked the time. It was already time for dinner. I guess Aunt Sayuri didn't want to disturb them so she didn't call them.

Looking at Eriri who was lost in inexplicable memories, Gan Ye shook his head helplessly, stretched out his finger and flicked Eriri's smooth forehead, bringing her back to consciousness.

"Eh? What's wrong?" The water-blue eyes blinked, and the delicate little face was full of confusion, which looked very cute.

"Okay, let's go downstairs quickly. I guess Aunt Sayuri is waiting anxiously." Gan Ye said with a gentle smile and put the digital tablet in his hand aside.

I brought Eriri downstairs and sure enough, Sayuri Sawamura was sitting on the sofa. The two of them had just come out of the room with a teasing smile on their faces.

"Oh my~ You finally came down. Are you enjoying your time alone?"

"mom!"

Chapter 162: "Old Friend"

"By the way, are you still in that unreliable project?"

After finishing lunch and taking a short rest, Kan'ya and Eriri went out together to buy the drawing paper that Eriri needed.

On the way back, he started asking Eriri about Tomoya Aki's game planning.

This time there was no mercy and he directly concluded that Tomoya Aki's plan was unreliable.

Of course, this is not referring to the project itself. After all, with Eriri's original drawings and Kasumigaoka's writing, it can't be too bad.

The person he was referring to was Tomoya Aki, but it was up to Eriri how she understood it.
