Moreover, Eri Kisaki has an extremely discerning eye for food; almost all the dishes she orders sound delicious just from their names.
"Is that so? That's all for now."
Eri Kisaki didn't insist; she simply smiled slightly and handed the menu back to the waiter.
Just as she released her grip, she seemed to remember something and added another sentence.
"Oh, could you please add another mocha coffee for me? Room temperature or hot is fine."
"Ok."
The waiter added another coffee to the ordering machine and then turned and left.
With the sound of the game console gone, the dining table returned to silence.
Eri Kisaki turned to Lin Xiaofeng and smiled: "This restaurant serves food quite quickly, it should be served soon."
"Oh……"
Lin Xiaofeng wasn't in a hurry, but he felt something was strange.
On one hand, he felt that Eri Kisaki seemed to be very familiar with this place, even though Ms. Kuriyama had previously complained that she was often so busy that she didn't even have time to eat, and could only buy a hot dog or something to carry with her and eat it whenever she had a spare moment.
On the other hand, having coffee with lunch is also strange; the thought of a sip of coffee followed by a bite of teppanyaki is just awful.
And normally, shouldn't it be paired with fruit juice or lemon tea to cut through the grease and oil?
That doesn't quite make sense...
Feeling that something was amiss, Lin Xiaofeng stared intently at the female lawyer, scrutinizing her closely.
Without a doubt, she was still the same person, with the same face, as dignified and beautiful as ever, except... she looked a little haggard.
From Lin Xiaofeng's perspective, he could clearly see the few fine blood vessels at the corners of Eri's eyes.
It's probably because I didn't get enough rest.
Perhaps it was because Lin Xiaofeng's gaze was too direct that even the female lawyer, who had already developed that kind of relationship, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Eri Kisaki touched her cheek with one hand, puzzled. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"No, that's not it." Lin Xiaofeng blinked. "It's just that Yingli, you seem a little tired. Your eyes are bloodshot."
"Yes, a little bit."
Eri Kisaki gently rubbed the corner of her eye twice with her index finger.
She finished her sentence, but for some reason Lin Xiaofeng felt that Yingli seemed to have something else to say, but the words were swallowed back before they could be uttered.
Fortunately, the dishes they ordered arrived at that very moment.
Since things have come to this, we can only eat first.
……
Although he wasn't very hungry, thanks to Eri's excellent ordering skills, Lin Xiaofeng ate quite well overall.
As expected, after lunch, we went shopping again.
But as I said before, even if it's the same thing, the experience will be very different if you do it with different people.
For example, Eri Kisaki is not like Yukiko, who has been a mother for more than ten years and whose son is almost an adult, yet still has the personality of a little girl. It is even less likely that she would openly hold Lin Xiaofeng's arm and walk together in public.
As for taking selfies or similar photos, that's even less likely to happen.
However, Eri Kisaki had her own plan. She spent the entire afternoon taking Lin Xiaofeng to almost every men's clothing store in the shopping plaza.
As the saying goes, fortunes change, and yesterday Yukiko was happily changing clothes, but unexpectedly, the next day it was my turn.
Eri Kisaki is very generous; she will buy anything Lin Xiaofeng likes after trying it on.
So Lin Xiaofeng went from having nothing in his hands to carrying two or three bags in each hand.
It was filled with clothes that Eri had bought for him.
More than three hours later—
As they emerged from yet another clothing store, Lin Xiaofeng glanced up at the glass dome above the square, which was glowing with the crimson sunset. Seeing that Eri's interest hadn't waned and she was clearly preparing to continue her "hunt" at the next clothing store, he couldn't help but offer some words of advice.
“Eri, actually I don’t need any more clothes. I bought so many today… that’s already a lot.”
"It's okay, this is the last one."
Eri Kisaki didn't take it to heart.
"Actually, not many people come to this shopping plaza. I got all these shop recommendations from Ms. Kuriyama. Since it's a rare opportunity, I have to visit them all."
Ok……
Lin Xiaofeng was speechless.
Since I'm accompanying Eri on a date, the most important thing is that she's happy.
And so the two of them stepped into the last clothing store they visited that day.
Unlike the clothing stores before, the last store sells loungewear, or you could call it... yukata.
The shop's storefront isn't large, and the owner is the only person inside.
Seemingly acquainted with the female lawyer, the proprietress, who had been sitting behind the bar, immediately stood up and greeted Eri with a smile upon her arrival.
"Long time no see, Attorney Fei! You're here again today... Hey? Is this your son? He's very handsome!"
The proprietress noticed Lin Xiaofeng following the female lawyer and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
This was clearly a misunderstanding, but Eri Kisaki just smiled and moved closer to Lin Xiaofeng, closing the distance between them.
"looks like?"
"what……"
The proprietress smiled but said nothing.
After all, the two are completely different, but it's not appropriate to say that directly.
After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, the proprietress stopped talking and turned to walk towards the clothes rack full of yukatas, waving for the two to follow.
"It's the same one you picked out yesterday, right? Although I think your son's build and physique should fit him pretty well, just to be on the safe side, why don't you try it on?"
"Okay, let's give it a try."
Eri Kisaki smiled and agreed.
Lin Xiaofeng, who was following behind her, suddenly stopped.
Wait, yesterday?
Although he seemed to have heard some important information from the clothing store owner, Lin Xiaofeng didn't say much. He simply followed Eri's instructions and took a yukata into the changing room.
Try it on, it fits, pack it up and take it away.
That's roughly the process.
Fifteen minutes later, the two, having finished their date, returned to the underground parking garage carrying large and small bags.
Lin Xiaofeng put everything into the trunk of the car, then moved to the driver's side, opened the door, and got in.
At this moment, Eri Kisaki was already seated in the passenger seat, the seatbelt slung diagonally from her right shoulder down to her left waist, creating a shockingly deep cleavage across the lawyer's chest.
Seeing the boy get into the car, Eri Kisaki rested her chin on her hand by the car window, turned her head and smiled.
"Did you have fun today?"
"Not bad, Eri, how about you?"
Lin Xiaofeng spoke the truth.
His hands hung naturally at his sides, and he didn't even fasten his seatbelt. Instead of starting the car and leaving, he sat in the car and chatted with the female lawyer.
The car body is soundproof, and the windows are coated with film, so people outside can only see inside the car through the front windshield.
But the question is, when Lin Xiaoling stopped the car, the front of the car was pressed against the wall, and there was absolutely no possibility of a crowd appearing in front of it.
The car interior has now become a top-secret space for conversation.
"I...I'm not bad either."
Eri Kisaki still wore that ambiguous, half-smiling expression.
"I'm definitely happy, but not as happy as I imagined. Maybe... it's because I had already previewed it yesterday. I had a general idea of every dish I would eat and every piece of clothing I would choose, but at the same time, I lost the sense of surprise I felt when I first saw it."
"As I said, all the shops we're visiting today are ones I found out from Ms. Kuriyama."
The female lawyer relaxed completely as she slumped into her seat, her gaze fixed on the roof of the car above the windshield.
"Sigh~ After all these years I've been busy with work, so it's rare to have a leisurely shopping trip like this."
"So much time has passed, and the city center has changed a lot. Even with Ms. Kuriyama's recommendation, I have to try each store myself to make sure it's true."
"So, I spent the whole day yesterday scouting out the shopping plaza in the city center..."
At this point, Eri Kisaki paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and then continued.
"But perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was inevitable, but when I arrived at the square entrance yesterday morning, I happened to see you in the KFC near the south gate."
"...with Yukiko."
Lin Xiaofeng added the second half of the sentence for her.
After he finished speaking, there was a full five seconds of silence inside the car.
The female lawyer slowly exhaled and nodded almost imperceptibly.
"Well, I see it."
"Then why don't you say anything?"
"I just wanted to see if you'd noticed me."
"The results of it……"
"As you already know, you didn't notice me; you don't care about me at all."
"Eri, if you're jealous, why don't you and Ran move in together and we can all live together."
"What nonsense are you talking about? That's Yusaku Kudo's house. How could Ran and I possibly move here?"
The female lawyer changed the subject, saying, "Over the years as a lawyer, I've accumulated some savings. I'll take out a loan to buy a villa. Although it won't be as big as the Kudo family's, it'll still be a decent one. You can live with me and Ran from now on, okay? Yukiko and Shizuka are also welcome to live with us if they want."
Lin Xiaofeng immediately objected, "How can I let you pay for it? I'll think of a way."
"How old are you? What can you do?" Eri Kisaki asked, looking unconvinced.
Lin Xiaofeng thought about it; he really didn't have that much savings. Although he had over a billion yen in his account, it wasn't enough to buy a luxury villa in Tokyo. The annual taxes and management fees were considerable, plus Japan was a country with negative interest rates. Hmm… it seems that's not the case recently.
Lin Xiaofeng had a sudden inspiration and came up with a good idea: to discuss with Shirley about embezzling public funds.
408. Eri Kisaki, brimming with inner charm
"I am your man, the man who can protect, cherish, and love you. You must believe me..."
Lin Xiaofeng turned to the side and pressed the switch at the passenger seatbelt connection to unlock it. In the cramped car space, ignoring the female lawyer's resistance, he picked up Fei Yingli and straddled her, forcing her to face him at close range.
Their breaths mingled at that moment, and the boy slightly raised his face.
"Yes……"
His masculine words left the female lawyer speechless for a moment.
Eri Kisaki no longer even made any symbolic twisting movements in resistance; she simply stared blankly down at him.
Lin Xiaofeng didn't give her time to recover.
They leaned in and kissed.
Much later, Eri's somewhat muddy murmur could be heard inside the car.
"You really... defeated me..."
Even with soundproofing and tinted windows, Lin Xiaofeng wasn't so depraved as to openly start such an act in a public place.
So Lin Xiaofeng, with the female lawyer in his arms and the steering wheel in his hands, stepped on the gas and drove out of the underground parking lot.
Three minutes later, they stopped in front of a business hotel just across the street.
As the car door opened, Eri, who had been straddling Lin Xiaofeng the whole way, got out first and stood by the car with a flushed face in the evening breeze blowing through the city center.
The female lawyer was still thin-skinned after all.
