"Brother, are you finished talking? I'm done here too, I was just about to come and call you," Sakura said gently, wiping her hands with a tissue.
Kaname nodded to Takahae Mo, but said nothing.
"Hasn't Xiaomai and Yuxi come down yet?" Gao Yumo glanced at them but didn't see the two girls.
"No, they're probably playing games in their room. I'll go call them," Sakura said, shaking her head.
"I'll go. You've worked hard cooking, so you don't need to run around anymore. Eriri, Megumi, you two sit down too. I'll go upstairs and call them." Gao Yumo stopped Sakura. He couldn't let her do everything. Besides, Gao Yumo was also planning to cook from now on. He was going to start showing off his culinary skills!
As the saying goes, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. The same applies to women. Gao Yumo wants to win the hearts of the girls who come to his house through their stomachs and also let his own girls taste his cooking. He doesn't cook often at home, mainly because Xiaoying always tells him to rest.
“Okay, brother.” Sakura didn’t refuse her brother’s kindness and went to the kitchen.
Kaguya followed her inside. She could help carry the dishes, but she was completely out of her depth when it came to cooking, since she had never practiced it before. Of course, she believed that she could learn it quickly if she wanted to.
Eriri and Megumi Kato saw this and followed them in to help.
Gao Yumo smiled, turned around and went upstairs again, first checking out Suoh Yuki's room.
She knocked on the door, but there was no response. Gao Yumo called out, "Youxi?"
Still no response. "Not in her own room? Then she must be with Umaru."
Their rooms were quite close, just a few steps away. She knocked on the door again: "Xiao Mai, are you in there?"
"Hey, big brother, come in." Umaru's voice came through.
Gao Yumo pushed the door open and went in. Sure enough, Xiaomai and Yuxi were playing games, sitting on the floor. Gao Yumo found it strange that Xiaomai had put her computer on the floor, but since the floor was clean, it didn't matter where they sat.
Walking up behind them, I saw they were playing a fighting game, and Umaru was slightly better at it.
"Dinner's ready. This round will be over soon." Gao Yumo sat down behind them, watching their match.
"Okay, big brother, watch me beat you this round, big brother is giving me power!" Yuki said, her character's movements becoming faster as she used all her strength!
"I won't lose either! Watch my special move!" On Umaru's side, she also used all her strength.
Both were extremely focused, their hands moving rapidly, their characters unleashing continuous combos, but their opponents were able to block them all. Fighting games are all about reaction speed, and of course, it's also about how well you know your opponent and what moves they're going to make. These two were very familiar with each other.
Now it's a test of their reaction speed and concentration. They're both on edge, seeing who gets tired first. Gao Yumo watches quietly from behind, also wanting to know who will win.
"Final blow!" Umaru shouted, unleashing her character's ultimate move, which struck Yuki directly, wiping out her last bit of health.
Yuki put down the controller. "I lost. Umaru-chan fighting games are really good."
Then she glanced back furtively, a smile playing on her lips, because Gao Yumo was right behind her. Youxi pretended to be disappointed and fell backward, only to be caught in Gao Yumo's arms.
"I won!" Umaru was still excitedly saying, but Yuki had already received the prize, so it was a win-win situation.
Gao Yumo patted her head, looking at her with amusement. He knew what she meant, but he didn't call her out on it. He just assumed she was disappointed after losing and patted her head to comfort her.
Yuki looked at Umaru with a victorious expression, while Umaru, with her back to the two of them, was still looking at the computer. Suddenly, she realized why it was so quiet and turned around to look.
"Yuki, so cunning!" she said, pounced on Gao Yumo. However, since she was in her "dried fish girl" form, her two-headed figure only made Gao Yumo feel that she was cute, but not anything else.
However, Gao Yumo still patted Xiaomai's head and said, "You played really well, Xiaomai."
Hearing her brother's praise and head pat, Umaru squinted her eyes, hugged her brother's waist and rubbed against him, then glanced at Yuki Suoh and returned to her original form. She was a beautiful girl too!
Gao Yumo held her two younger sisters in her arms and stroked their heads, and the two sisters seemed to enjoy the feeling. The scene looked very heartwarming.
After a few minutes, Gao Yumo finally spoke: "Is it done? Are you satisfied? If you are, get up. We still have guests today, so it's time to go eat. Don't keep them waiting too long."
“Anyway, they won’t be guests anymore soon, right? Once they’re in our house, they’ll be family.” Yuki opened her eyes and said, but still sat up from Gao Yumo’s arms.
"That's what you say, but we're still guests, Xiaomai?" Gao Yumo nudged Xiaomai, and Xiaomai reluctantly got up.
"Oh right, let them see what I look like when I'm shrunken, okay? It'll be really interesting," Xiaomai suddenly said. Has this girl developed a wicked sense of humor after spending so much time with Gao Yumo?
"Forget it, I already said we're still guests. You can play around with it later when you're more familiar with each other." Gao Yumo rejected her idea. Although it was quite interesting, it was better to skip it today. Eriri had experienced enough surprises today.
"Okay." Umaru was a little disappointed, but not particularly disappointed, since it was just a prank that came to mind on a whim.
Gao Yumo stood up and rubbed the two girls' heads. "Really, I just asked you to come downstairs, and you've been waiting for almost ten minutes. Xiaoying will probably come up to check on you in a little while."
"No, Sakura knows our habits. She knows we won't leave until we've finished the game." Umaru wasn't worried at all, and even if it took a long time, Sakura wouldn't get angry; she's so gentle.
"What about Kaguya? Aren't you afraid she'll get angry?" Gao Yumo asked again, a smile playing on his lips.
Umaru was taken aback, then her forehead was covered in sweat. She knew that Kaguya wouldn't get angry; Kaguya had never been angry before. But even Umaru, who had lived with Kaguya for several years, still found Kaguya's coldness somewhat unbearable.
"Okay, let's go down." After saying that, Umaru took off the cloak she was wearing, threw it on the ground, and ran away.
"Is she that afraid of Kaguya?" Gao Yumo just wanted to scare her, was it really necessary? He picked up the cloak from the ground and put it away for her.
“Kaguya won’t be angry, but her aura already makes us uncomfortable. Umaru is just worried,” Yuki explained.
"Okay, let's go downstairs then." Gao Yumo patted Youxi's head again and then led her downstairs.
"Wait a minute." But Yuki called out to him.
"What's wrong?" Gao Yumo had barely asked when he knew why, because he was kissed on the cheek.
Gao Yumo touched her face and smiled. Could it be that Youxi couldn't hold back anymore?
"This is how a younger sister greets her older brother," Yuki said with a smile, without the slightest bit of shyness. She felt a sense of crisis and knew she had to do something.
"Then I'll give you one back." Gao Yumo pulled Youxi into his arms. The two looked at each other. Their feelings for each other were already obvious, so it was fair to say that anything they did was reasonable.
"I love you, brother." Yuki said these words directly without any change in expression. She still had that smiling look on her face, as if these words were just a greeting.
The two shared a light kiss, which was Yuki's first kiss, but not Gao Yumo's.
"I thought you wouldn't say it." Gao Yumo smiled as he looked at the girl in his arms. Suoh Yuki was the one in the family who showed the most obvious feelings for him, and she was also the one who had the least to hide. Their relationship was also the one that was least likely to have any waves.
They both like each other, and neither of them is the type to hide their feelings. It's a miracle that they've only come out about it now, since neither of them has been hiding anything at all.
No, that's not right. There's a little bit of hope, but not much. So, after removing it, the progress in their relationship was so natural.
They looked at each other and shared another kiss, a light one, as time was running out.
"Alright, we have plenty of time. There will be plenty of opportunities later. Now it's time to go downstairs." Gao Yumo hugged Youxi and touched her face. Youxi truly lived up to her reputation as a 'reclusive young lady' at school. Both her temperament and appearance were top-notch.
"Okay, I just didn't expect us to be talking about this so late. Is it my fault?" Yuki said with a smile.
(I've been a bit busy these past few days, so I'll only be writing two chapters a day for now. I'll resume three chapters later, and I'll try my best to see if I can write four chapters in the future.)

Chapter 34 Eriri, how dare you do this?
When Gao Yumo and Youxi came downstairs, they ran into Xiaomai, who had come upstairs to find them.
"Why are you only coming down now? I just peeked at the door, and Kaguya's expression was so scary. I'm too scared to go in alone," Umaru said to Gao Yumo, puffing out her cheeks. She was a little annoyed.
"I'm a little late, but I'll take you inside now. Kaguya won't say anything, so you don't need to be afraid of her. She won't be angry." Gao Yumo smiled at Xiaomai and led the two downstairs.
Yuki, standing nearby, kept looking at Umaru with a strange smile, clearly because of what had just happened—that light kiss that Umaru had just missed. Of course, if Umaru had been waiting for them in the room, Yuki would have dared to kiss her too. It's just unknown whether Gao Yumo would have returned the kiss.
Based on Yuki's understanding, it's likely she would, and she might even pull Umaru aside and kiss her too. Gao Yumo is absolutely capable of doing something like that.
.
"We're here." Gao Yumo led the two women into the restaurant, and it was obvious to everyone else in the restaurant that Gao Yumo was in a better mood.
"Did something happy happen?" Sakura asked gently, but a hint of thought flashed in her eyes as she looked at the two girls behind Takayuki and then at Suoh Yuki.
Yuki looked back, smiled, and said nothing, but Sakura nodded as if she understood something.
The three took their seats. Gao Yumo sat in the main seat, and Xiaomai and Yuki also sat in their seats. Behind Gao Yumo, Kaname was still standing.
"Nami-nee, please sit down. I'll finish what I promised you tonight, and I'll even do it again." Gao Yumo knew that just talking about Nami-nee would involve saying her favorite thing—the excuse that she was a maid—so she used the simplest method.
"Yes, young master." As expected, this was the simplest thing, and Nami was immediately seated.
Kaguya also had Hayasaka Ai sit down.
"Alright, everyone's here, let's start eating. It's getting cold. Luckily, it's spring now, so the food won't get cold so easily." Gao Yumo urged everyone to start eating. That's the thing about having a large family; it doesn't feel right to start eating until everyone's here, but once everyone's here, the food gets cold easily, and then we'll have to figure out a solution.
"It's so delicious, Sakura," Eriri said after taking a bite of Sakura's twice-cooked pork. It was the first time she had ever tasted this kind of dish.
"It's Chinese cuisine. My brother taught me. By the way, my brother's cooking skills are much better than mine, and he also said that he will personally demonstrate his skills later. Eriri, you should look forward to it!" Sakura said with a smile, and also praised Gao Yumo's cooking skills.
Eriri looked at Gao Yumo strangely, "I didn't know you could cook. I had no idea."
"Because I've never shown you before, but I'll be cooking all the meals at home from now on, so give it a try." Gao Yumo put a piece of food on Xiaoying's plate next to her, and then answered Eriri.
"Brother, do you mean it will start tonight?" Sakura asked curiously as she ate the food her brother had put on her plate.
"Okay, let's start today. Tonight, you'll get to try my cooking. Sakura, you can help me out."
"No problem, brother." Sakura said, glancing at Yuki. Although she didn't do anything, Yuki understood what she meant. Even though she was in the lead, she still felt uncomfortable.
'I don't want to lose,' Yuki thought to herself.
.....
Lunch was quickly finished. Everyone first cleaned up the dishes together. Kaname took charge of washing the dishes, and Hayasaka Ai also went to help. The others were told to leave, meaning they didn't need their help, so they all went to do their own things.
Gao Yumo then looked at Eriri and Kato Megumi and asked, "Megumi, Eriri, are you planning to rest for a while, or are you going to leave now? You have time this afternoon anyway, I'll take you."
Kato Megumi shook her head, not because she didn't want to leave now, but because she said, "I don't need you to take me, Mo-kun. I can go back by myself. There's no need to trouble you, Mo-kun. It's daytime now, so there won't be any danger."
Eriri, who was standing next to her, was about to agree, but after Kato Megumi said that it didn't seem right to ask Takayuki to take her home: "I don't need you to take me home, I'll go back by myself."
But Gao Yumo didn't seem to be putting on a brave face. She looked a little scared, probably because of "Summer Reboot." The Shadow Disease had frightened her a bit. It's like watching a horror movie and then feeling like a ghost might appear. Eriri is like that now.
Moreover, the shadow disease can also occur during the day. Even now, during the day, Eriri is still a little scared, mainly because she just finished watching it not long ago. So Gao Yumo still spoke up.
"Eri, I'll take you back. I have something to say to Sayuri."
Gao Yumo offered an excuse, a way out, to prevent Ying Lili from feeling too awkward.
“Okay, let’s do it together then.” Eriri readily agreed, though she may not have understood Gao Yumo’s meaning; she genuinely thought Gao Yumo wanted to find her mother.
"Who is Sayuri?" Kato Megumi asked curiously from the side, though she didn't show any expression when she was curious.
“She’s Eriri’s mother. I’m used to calling her that; it makes her seem younger. Sayuri likes it that way,” Gao Yumo explained.
Eriri nodded and said helplessly, "Yes, Mom is that kind of person."
Kato Megumi nodded knowingly, imagining a young and beautiful woman who hated being called old. It has to be said that Kato Megumi was right.
"Then I'll be going now, Mo-kun." Kato Megumi said goodbye to the group, preparing to go home early, as there should be someone at home today.
"Then I'll walk you to the door."
"Ok."
...
Gao Yumo escorted Kato Megumi to the door and watched her leave before returning home after she turned the corner.
In the restaurant, Hayasaka Ai and Kanami were still washing dishes. Takahata Mo didn't disturb them. She went to the living room, where only Eriri was there.
"When are we going home?" Gao Yumo walked behind the sofa where she was sitting and asked with a smile.
"What do you mean 'we're going home'? I'm going home, but isn't that your home?" Eriri turned around and said arrogantly, looking at Gao Yumo, but her eyes were somewhat evasive.
"When can it be my home?" Gao Yumo leaned closer to her and asked. Eriri felt Gao Yumo getting closer and took a step back, but she forgot that she was on the sofa and had just turned around. As she took a step back, she sat directly on the floor.
"Hahaha." Gao Yumo burst out laughing when he saw her actions, but still went forward to help her up.
Eriri grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it at Gao Yumo, somewhat embarrassed and angry, "Don't laugh."
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh, hehe." Gao Yumo covered his mouth, but still couldn't help it, and pulled Yingli back to the sofa with his other hand.
Seeing this, Eriri punched Gao Yumo a few more times, and Gao Yumo could only pretend to cry out in pain. Seeing that it was effective, Eriri was about to hit him a few more times to vent her anger, but before she could touch Gao Yumo, he grabbed her hand.
"A few slaps will do the trick." Gao Yumo said, grabbing Yingli's other hand and pulling it up to look at it. Her hands, which she often used to paint, had no calluses, were smooth as jade, and felt warm to the touch.
"Let go!" Eriri said angrily, her face flushed. "Damn it!"
"Let go then." After Gao Yumo finished speaking, just when Ying Lili thought he was going to let go, he suddenly kissed her hand before letting go.
By the time Eriri realized what was happening, Gao Yumo had already disappeared.
"Damn it!" Eriri waved her fist and said a few more words, but Gao Yumo had already run away.
Eriri looked left and right, but no one was there. She looked at the back of her hand that Gao Yumo had just kissed, then slowly put it to her lips, a blank smile on her face.
"Eri, do you really dare to do this?" Gao Yumo saw this scene through the crack in the door. He was somewhat disappointed in Eriri, but he couldn't say anything. No matter how proactive he was, Eriri would still be the same. He could only continue to think of ways to deal with her.
