Congratulations, Sushi, you have been optimized by me.

...

ps: I will start updating three chapters starting tomorrow, because I took a sick day before, so I have to make up for that day of leave first, and then I will start the bounty for the remaining three chapters.

Chapter 151: Su Shi: I don’t have a beautiful woman in a golden house! (1/2)

Ignoring the strange looks from Renna and Momoka beside her, Chihiro almost half-forced An and Subaru to take her labor fee from the reluctant An and Subaru.

After counting the amount of money and confirming that it was enough for her and Su Shi's food expenses for a week, the girl finally nodded in satisfaction:

"Well, I've already finished my work. If there's nothing else, I'll just..."

"You want to leave? Can you leave?"

"Eh?"

"Nina, close the door."

"it is good!"

Under the command of Momoka Kawahara, who had a smirk on her face, Icera Jinna trotted to the door of the recording studio, closed it, and then used her petite body to push against the door.

"You haven't come to practice these past few days. Are you a bit incompetent as a bassist?"

"...Didn't I say I wanted to quit the group?"

"Have it?"

"Now that I've said it, I can leave, right?" Chihiro Tsuzuki felt helpless. She didn't know that these people actually took her promise to be a temporary bassist seriously.

Come to think of it, it’s impossible for me to really hang out with these dropouts!

Oh yes, she dropped out of school herself...

But the problem is that her most important task now is to deal with the troubles of JK girls like Su Shi. Apart from anything else, Chihiro feels that since she stays with JK every day, she can always take advantage of the situation and pretend that she is also an excellent student with both talent and beauty.

"Then you go."

"Eh? No... Momoka, why?!" Renai widened her eyes. She didn't expect that after a brief pause, Momoka would say such a thing.

"Chihiro, you just said that, right? You're actually a guitarist."

"Um……"

"I don't know why you're holding a bass, but now I finally understand why your bass playing skills are so mediocre."

Of course, Momoka had heard from Nina a long time ago that Chihiro had played the guitar, but just like there were many things the three of them didn't want others to ask about, guitar must also be a very distressing topic for Chihiro.

However, judging from what Chihiro said just now, it seems that the other party is no longer so confused.

She can even help Subaru resolve his problems. In this regard... as an adult, she is indeed no match for the underage girl in front of her.

If possible, Momoka really wanted to keep Chihiro, but she knew that Chihiro's heart was not with them, so there was no point in forcing her to stay.

"How about this... I'll treat you tonight, Chihiro, you have to stay with us until dinner is over and then go back."

"This one……"

"Why? You can't even agree to this request?"

"No, I have to report to my family first."

"Family?" Taoxiang blinked, then asked subconsciously, "Is it Chihiro's grandmother?"

"...No, it has nothing to do with you anyway!"

"Tell me, why are you so anxious?" Although An He Subaru hadn't figured out how to face her grandmother later, it was obvious that she would no longer ruin the atmosphere with personal problems at this time. "But it seems that Momoka is the only adult among us. It seems that this time... even if Momoka gets drunk, it won't be too troublesome."

Thinking of the last time when Momoka got drunk and she and Nina, one carrying her shoulders and the other holding her legs, An Hesuba felt that she had never been so embarrassed even when she had to do some NGs on the set.

But after finishing her dinner tonight and settling Taoxiang, who might get drunk again, she really had to make up her mind to have another showdown with her grandmother.

Having said that, after Nina's interruption, An and Subaru really retreated a little.

"If you can't say it, how about inviting An and Grandma to your next LIVE?"

"Eh?" Seeing Chihiro quickly finish her "report" and appear in front of him as if she could read his mind, An He Subaru changed the subject with some surprise, "No, you finished the call so quickly? Why didn't I hear you speak?"

"She...didn't answer the phone."

Chihiro Tsuzuki frowned. She was also puzzled because whenever she contacted the young widow, she would always answer the call quickly.

Why didn't he answer the call this time? The other party also hung up after the phone rang twice. Did Su Shi encounter some problems?

It would be fine if she encountered a situation where he couldn't contact her, but if she knew that this guy hung up on her on purpose to make her, his master, uncomfortable, then Chihiro dared to guarantee that when she returned home tonight, she would make Su Shi sleep on her stomach.

——Because the young widow’s butt would be beaten so hard by herself that it would become so red and swollen that she couldn’t lie flat to sleep.

"Forget it, let's ignore her for now."

"……Um."

Although it was a response to Chihiro's previous sentence, for An and Subaru, this "hmm" could be regarded as an agreement to the pretty good proposal that Chihiro had made to them earlier.

It was only around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, which was obviously not a suitable time for dinner.

However, a group of girls, especially those including Nina and An He Subaru who were chattering non-stop, did not gather together just to eat.

The group found a nearby restaurant and ordered five dishes plus a soup. However, the first things placed on the table were not the dishes, but drinks and beer.

Of course, Chihiro Tsuzuki seemed a little out of place among these people. It was not because her social skills were suddenly reset to zero, but because she was always looking at her phone, looking at the motionless IINE chat window.

...

"Didn't your friend call you just now? Why didn't you answer?"

Rina Nagasaki looked at her daughter sitting in the passenger seat and asked casually with some surprise.

"No...it's not an important call."

"Really?" Nagasaki Rina smiled. She was already used to her daughter being shy.

Although she does look cute sometimes, as a mother she sometimes worries whether her daughter's personality will have any negative impact.

Chihiro Tsuzuki… The name was not familiar to her, but the surname did sound familiar to her.

"So, Sushi, you just mistook me for the Tsuzuki Chihiro you were talking about, right?"

"I……"

"Mom is really curious. Why do you get so nervous when I mention this name? If we were just friends, Mom wouldn't say anything. It's a good thing that you have a very good friend, Su Shi."

"Well, mother."

"Ok?"

Nagasaki Rina looked at Su Shi in confusion, but she didn't expect that Su Shi's next sentence was somewhat unexpected for her.

"Do you really want to stay at home for a long time? Is everything okay at the company?"

Did she hear it correctly?

Her daughter, who always wanted her to go home, now resented her staying home with her daughter? Could it be that this was all because of Chihiro Tsuzuki, whose age, identity, and appearance were unknown?

"Su Shi...you're not playing the "Golden House and the Beautiful Girl" game with your mother, are you?"

Although it was a joke, Su Shi's reaction after hearing this was quite intriguing. After Nagasaki Rina showed her mother's authority, the guilty Su Shi said something shocking in a panic:

"Actually... I'm the one being hidden now."

"???"

"Ah... No, no! That's not what I meant!"

Chapter 152: Su Shi: Chihiro, you're caught?! (2/2)

"...I see. So you're afraid that Mom won't agree with you and Chihiro living together?"

Rina Nagasaki originally wanted to take her daughter out for another meal, but after listening to her daughter's explanation, she suddenly wanted to go home and see the girl who was praised by her daughter.

According to Su Shi, the acquaintance between his daughter and that little Chihiro seemed to be just a coincidence, and the other party seemed to have no idea who her family was at that time, nor did she have any "reliable" source of income.

The good daughter was so kind-hearted that she took Chihiro Tsuzuki in to live in her home. It sounds like a very loving and heartwarming story.

"But the question is...why do you think your mother would be against you?"

"I……"

I can’t say it, Nagasaki Suyo really can’t say it.

Her explanations just now seemed perfect and reasonable, but the problem was that they were completely different from the actual situation.

First of all, the first point doesn't match, because Chihiro Tsuzuki is actually not such a soft and cute beautiful girl at all. Although she is indeed very beautiful...but her personality is really too irritating.

And she even dared to pretend to be an adult, even pretending to be the mother next to her... If this fact was revealed, Su Shi didn't know how her mother would view Chihiro.

Will you stop yourself from associating with such "bad kids"?

Furthermore, it's not just this point that's intriguing. The problem is that Chihiro Tsuzuki has not only played the role of her own mother, her main job is to be her own stand-in.

If my mother, a career elite, discovered this, how would she explain the deeper reasons behind it?

To be honest, is it true that she spent the pocket money her mother gave her, and then asked Chihiro to pretend to be her to deceive people, and sometimes even found a nice excuse to skip class when she didn't want to go to class?

but……

Su Shi thought about it seriously, maybe things were not as bad as she thought. Her mother would only come back to live at night, and Chihiro must live in her own room during the day.

That means she will be able to live with Chihiro in the future, and they will have less time to discuss their "evil plans" at close range. She might accidentally let Chihiro do something terrible.

But Chihiro's acting is at least trustworthy, which means that she will definitely not reveal her true nature in front of her mother.

"Mom, how long will you stay at home this time?"

"Hmm?" Nagasaki Rina said with amusement, looking at her daughter whose expression changed from moment to moment. "How come you just acted like you didn't want me to come home, but now you're acting like a good daughter to me again?"

Seeing Su Shi's somewhat embarrassed look, Nagasaki Rina couldn't stop laughing. "This time, it will take at least a month, right?"

After all, she not only had to go home to spend more time with her daughter, she also had to take time to ensure her daughter's safety and investigate the whereabouts of that guy Ichinose.

Of course, these things are adults' business, and she won't talk too much about them with her daughter. Her daughter just needs to live her life well.

However, she really wanted to meet the child Chihiro Tsuzuki. At the same time, Rina still couldn't understand one thing...that is, why Su Shi treated her as a child about the same age as her.

Could it be possible that the child could change his appearance?

What a nonsense.

"Mom, where are we going? Didn't we say we were going out to eat?"

"I know you have a new good friend living with you, so how can Mommy go out to eat? She must go home to see that little Chihiro you praised so much."

"Eh? This..."

Is this okay? It seems... it's really okay?

All of Chihiro's disguise gadgets are now kept in her own room, and there is nothing in Su Shi's own room now.

"what happened?"

"Nothing." Su Shi shook his head, but he no longer felt as guilty as before.

And why should she feel guilty? She should actually be happy.

Although a month is not a long time, after this period of time, my mother may still often stay overnight at the company, and the time she spends at home may become as little as it is now.

But she was already satisfied.

Although she went back a month this time and relive May 2020; although she still did not achieve her wish this time, and even became worse.

But one cannot always focus on the bad things. After all, she is...actually very happy now.

The way home was not very far. Although they took a detour to the place where they had originally planned to go out for dinner, it was only a little after 4 o'clock when they returned home.

Su Shi and her mother did not go upstairs directly, but parked the car in the parking lot and went to the nearby fresh food market. This was because the ingredients that Su Shi and Chihiro had used for cooking were all placed at Chihiro's house, and there was indeed nothing in her own refrigerator.

However, while shopping in the supermarket, Su Shi remembered that she seemed to have hung up the phone call to Chihiro before.

Even now she hasn't called back...

Oh no, if that hateful guy holds a grudge against me because of this and continues to bully me, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

Su Shi, who was well aware of how petty Chihiro Tsuzuki was towards her, quickly took out her cell phone and called Chihiro.

But what made her a little strange was that Chihiro didn't seem to answer the call for a long time.
