Zongman: Even if I am reborn, I still want to live my daily life

Nami-nee was the same way, and Gao Yumo couldn't figure out what she was thinking at all. As for Hayasaka Ai, although he only glanced at her and then ignored her, it wasn't that he disliked Hayasaka Ai; in fact, he liked her quite a bit. But now he could see that these two people didn't have a good impression of him, or rather, they didn't have a good impression of the concept of family.

We'll only know after living with them for a while how the Gao Yu family differs from other families.

"Xiao Mo, take Kaguya and this one with you." Grandma Gao Yuli wanted to say, but then she noticed that there was a girl who hadn't introduced herself yet; she must be Kaguya's maid.

"My name is Hayasaka Ai, sir." Hayasaka Ai quickly bowed to Takayuri and introduced herself. She could look at Shinomiya Gan'an with disgust in the car because they were about to leave the Shinomiya family, and the young lady didn't want anything to happen to her. Moreover, that man wouldn't care about this because he knew that he was indeed someone they would hate.

But Hayasaka Ai didn't dare do anything in front of Takahashi, not because Takahashi was more ruthless or anything, but simply because they were about to enter the Takahashi family, and she didn't want the young lady to leave a bad impression on someone else's head of the family.

“Okay, Hayasaka Ai, right? She’s a good girl too, hmm.” Gao Yuli glanced at her and smiled. Hayasaka Ai reminded her of Kaname, that girl.

"Xiao Mo, take Kaguya and Ai inside and take good care of them. Mr. Shinomiya Gan'an, let's not talk about our business here. Let's go to my company." Gao Yuli first asked Gao Yu Mo to take the two girls inside, while she didn't need to, as she and Shinomiya Gan'an still had business to discuss.

With Takaha Yuuki inside, she could take good care of the three children, not to mention Kaname and some maids were also there, so she didn't think there would be any problems.

"Kaguya, go ahead. I'm going to discuss business." Shinomiya Gan'an still didn't know what to say. He had so much to say, but he couldn't utter a single word. After glancing at Kaguya a few times, he got back into the car, preparing to go to Takayumi's company with her. He didn't even plan to go into Takayumi's house.

Only Gao Yumo, who was somewhat stunned, and two expressionless girls remained.

Gao Yumo hadn't expected her grandmother to pass away like this. Shouldn't she have had so many things to say? Shi Gong Yan'an was the same; how could she have left her daughter behind so easily?

"Please come in with me, you two." But Gao Yumo didn't hesitate for long; it wouldn't do to stay outside in the wind forever.

He spoke politely to Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka, and after making sure they both heard him, he walked toward the house.

He didn't really know what to say, and felt a very awkward atmosphere. After all, the other two weren't saying anything, which was unusual. Even if Kaguya Shinomiya was cold, her upbringing shouldn't have made her like this.

But clearly, Kaguya doesn't care about any of that right now. Having arrived in a strange place, Kaguya Shinomiya, who is inherently insecure, is even less likely to say anything.

Since neither the two young ladies nor the young master said anything, what would Hayasaka Ai, the maid, say?

Seeing this, Gao Yumo could only stop thinking about it. Things should get better after a while, and she would let them see that her Gao Yu family was completely different from her Sigong family.

"By the way, have you had breakfast?" Gao Yumo asked, trying to start a conversation. Since Gao Yumo had asked, the two of them couldn't very well not answer. After all, this was someone else's house, and it was best not to upset them.

“We all ate breakfast,” Kaguya Shinomiya replied simply.

"Breakfast? But it's already noon. How about we have lunch together later? Is that alright?" It's a little past 11 a.m. now, so it's time for lunch.

"Of course." Kaguya Shinomiya gave the same answer. At least she was certain that she could sit down to eat. At least she hadn't been without food since she arrived. If Yu Mo knew what she was thinking, she would definitely complain.

The Takaha family isn't like that at all, and neither is your Shinomiya family, right? What kind of people do you think they are?

Gao Yumo brought the two girls to the restaurant. When Gao Yuli left, she asked him to take care of the two girls, but he had no idea how to do so, so he just followed his usual way of life.

Although he lived in the family, it was obvious that Gao Yumo did not act like a nobleman's son at all. Gao Yuli and Gao Yuyangkui had no objection to his appearance. They didn't care and just wanted him to grow up healthily. They didn't expect him to do anything anyway.

"Sit down, we'll eat soon. After we finish eating, I'll take you to your rooms. Are your rooms next to each other okay?" Gao Yumo invited the two of them to sit down. After thinking for a moment, he pulled out chairs for them. It's never wrong to be gentle and gentlemanly, even though he's not that kind of person. It's not that he's not gentle, it's just that usually no one needs him to pull out chairs or anything like that.

The two girls looked at each other, seemingly realizing that things weren't as they had imagined. They had thought and talked a lot the night before. After all, they were still just two six-year-old girls, and the sudden news that they had a fiancé would inevitably lead to some wild thoughts.

Gao Yumo is definitely not the kind of person they thought she was, at least they can relax a bit.

"Young master, what would you like to eat for lunch today?" Kagami walked in at this moment, glanced at Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka, and nodded at them without saying anything.

"This is my personal maid, Kaname. This is Kaguya Shinomiya, my fiancée, and this is her maid." Of course, Gao Yumo couldn't leave without introducing them, so she introduced them to each other. Kaname and Yumo were just a little jealous, but they would get over it with time.

"Hello." Kaguya Shinomiya stood up and bowed to Kaname. Although she was just a maid, a personal maid was different from an ordinary maid.

Hayasaka Ai stood up and bowed to Kaname. Just now, Takayumi said that she was Kaguya Shinomiya's maid. It seemed inappropriate for her to sit here while Kaname stood. So she stood up and walked behind Kaguya Shinomiya.

Gao Yumo found it somewhat amusing; both girls were rather wary, but it was completely unnecessary.

“Hayasaka, sit down. Nami-nee just likes to stand. I’ve asked her to sit down every time, but she won’t. It’s okay for you. You’re Shinomiya’s maid, not mine. You should follow Shinomiya’s orders here.” Gao Yumo said to Hayasaka Ai, but Hayasaka Ai still stood behind Shinomiya Kaguya. Only when Shinomiya Kaguya asked her to sit down did she sit down.

She'd taken Gao Yumo's words to heart; she now listened to Shinomiya Kaguya. But shouldn't she have been the one to tell her to sit down first? Oh well, who cares?

"Nami-nee, anything is fine, you two?"

“We can all do it, don’t worry about us,” Kaguya Shinomiya said calmly.

"Don't be so wary or nervous. Our Gao Yu family and the Shigong family are completely different. You'll see in time." Gao Yumo smiled and shook his head. This matter can't be convinced just by talking; we still need to rely on time.

Chapter 10 Kaguya Shinomiya's Adorable Sleeping Face

"Good morning, young master."

"Love, shh, don't speak. I'll wake Kaguya up today."

Hayasaka Ai glanced at the hand covering her mouth and nodded. It was still an ordinary morning, the young master was still up to his usual pranks, and she, the maid, was still unable to disobey his orders.

Kaguya-sama, I'm so sorry, I couldn't stop the young master's pranks again.

He withdrew his hand, winked at Hayasaka Ai, and made a shushing gesture.

Then, pushing open Kaguya's door, Gao Yumo quietly slipped inside and went to Kaguya's bedside.

Looking at Kaguya's sleeping face, Gao Yumo's lips curled up. She was still so cute when she slept, completely different from her usual self, looking completely unguarded.

Kaguya Shinomiya has been living in his house for six years. Today is a few days after graduating from elementary school and before starting middle school. For Gao Yumo, it's a day of complete relaxation, a day when she shouldn't be getting up so early.

But why did he get up so early? Of course, it was to see Kaguya's sleeping face. He couldn't get enough of it, and it was especially rare to see Kaguya's expression like that—completely unguarded and completely natural.

Six years have passed. Kaguya Shinomiya has been living at his house for six years, and Takahashi Mo still hasn't been able to erase her disguise. It shouldn't be like this at all. At Takahashi Mo's house, both he and Takahashi Yangui treat her very well. She shouldn't feel the same way she did at Shinomiya's house before.

Even Hayasaka Ai had lowered her guard against him, believing that he would never harm them. Just look at what happened earlier; Hayasaka Ai completely let Takahashi Mo enter Shinomiya Kaguya's room, whether it was to play a prank or something else.

If she stopped Gao Yumo, Gao Yumo wouldn't force his way in. She tried it, she tried it at the very beginning, ignoring Gao Yumo's words and completely disregarding his needs, fully fulfilling her duties as Kaguya Shinomiya's maid, but completely ignoring Gao Yumo.

Gao Yumo hadn't said anything bad to her. In other families, if a maid did this, she would probably have been punished, fired, or even worse off.

But Gao Yumo didn't care at all. He completely adhered to what he said on the first day: Hayasaka Ai only needed to be Kaguya Shinomiya's maid and didn't need to care about him.

Through repeated tests, Hayasaka Ai came to the conclusion that Takahata Sumire wasn't faking it; he genuinely believed that Hayasaka Ai should just be a good maid to Shinomiya Kaguya. This made her lower her guard against Takahata Sumire and the Takahata family, and she truly felt at home there.

But Kaguya Shinomiya is completely different. Six years have passed, and she still wears that cold disguise. Why? Gao Yumo couldn't understand it at all. When she asked Hayasaka Ai, who knew her well, she could only give vague answers and couldn't give a clear explanation.

But it's okay, it's only been 6 years, and they've just entered middle school. Gao Yumo thinks it might be because both he and Kaguya were too young during their elementary school years, and Kaguya probably felt insecure. But there are still 3 years of middle school ahead, and everyone will go to the same middle school. Gao Yumo has to work hard this time to take off Kaguya's cold mask!

"How long are you going to stare at me? Are you a pervert?" Gao Yumo's thoughts wandered, his eyes fixed on Shinomiya Kaguya's face. Even if Shinomiya Kaguya was asleep and completely unguarded, she couldn't possibly not wake up. Although she was somewhat used to it, often when she woke up, Gao Yumo's face would be right in front of her. At first, she would think he was going to do something, but not anymore. He was simply looking at her, wanting to see her surprised expression when she woke up. She wasn't going to let him have his way!

The misunderstanding between the two arose from this. Gao Yumo wasn't that kind of weird personality. He didn't have the habit of looking at Kaguya's surprised expression when she woke up. He just looked at Kaguya sleeping. Although who knows which one might be more perverted, the two of them were engaged, weren't they? What's wrong with looking at his wife?

"Kaguya, you're awake. Get up, we have important things to do today." Gao Yumo was used to Kaguya's sharp tongue and insults, but wasn't she used to her own?

"Really? Something important? Are you finally going to become a nun? Can you set me free now?" Kaguya threw off the covers, wearing her pajamas. She glanced at Gao Yumo, then ignored him, got out of bed, and walked to the mirror. Hayasaka Ai was already waiting there, holding the clothes Kaguya was going to wear today—a black dress.

"Kaguya, your words are still so merciless." Gao Yumo was used to Kaguya's way of speaking, and just smiled as he watched her walk towards the mirror, wondering if she dared to change clothes in front of him.

The answer was no. Just as Kaguya was about to take off her pajamas, still a little groggy, she suddenly realized that Gao Yumo was still there!

"So you really are a pervert? You want to watch me change clothes?" Kaguya said this, but only she knew what she was thinking.

Gao Yumo could only sit up from her bed, raise her hands in a gesture of surrender, and walk towards the door.

"Change your clothes and come downstairs for a bit. I really have something important to do today." Standing at the door, Gao Yumo reminded him of this before leaving. Getting along with Kaguya couldn't be rushed.

Inside Kaguya's room, Kaguya breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gao Yumo had really left. She took off her pajamas, which were actually quite revealing, as her collarbones were exposed.

But she had gotten used to Gao Yumo seeing her in her pajamas. Of course, it wasn't like that at first. She still remembered the first time he appeared in front of her bed, and she woke up groggily, thinking it was Hayasaka Ai, and hugged him.

That morning, a huge scream and a loud slap echoed from Kaguya's room.

That day, Gao Yumo had a red handprint on his face, but he knew it was his fault. However, he refused to change it. Later, whenever he got up early, he would go to Kaguya's room every day to wake her up.

Of course, that all happened after Takahata Mo gained Hayasaka Ai's trust. Hayasaka Ai couldn't get into Kaguya's room without going through him. However, Hayasaka Ai later clearly felt that Takahata Mo's affection for the young lady was genuine; he truly indulged her in everything.

“Young Miss, you’ve completely ruled out Young Master Mo now.” Hayasaka Ai suddenly said this while Kaguya was changing clothes.

Kaguya Shinomiya's expression changed instantly; the Kaguya Shinomiya who Gao Yumo still saw as cold revealed the expression of a little girl.

"Ai! What nonsense are you talking about? How could that be! How could I possibly accept that pervert?" Kaguya said in a flustered manner. She no longer hid herself from Ai Hayasaka. Her relationship with Ai was already that of true sisters.

"But Miss, I said rejection, not acceptance. You may have misheard me." Hayasaka Ai clearly knew that Kaguya hadn't misheard; it was simply a confused reaction in her panic.

Kaguya immediately realized the error in her statement, but when she wanted to refute it, she glanced at Hayasaka Ai beside her and realized that there was no need to hide anything from Ai anymore.

"Yes, I guess I've completely accepted him. I felt a real sense of family at Gao Yu's house. Whether it was Aunt Yang Kui or Sister Nami, they all made me feel that family. Not to mention him, he really spoils me. He really treats me like family. He always smiles when I say anything to him, and he takes such good care of me. I guess I've accepted him a long time ago."

"Miss, why don't you confess? Aren't you two engaged? Shouldn't you take it a step further? Otherwise, someone else will beat you to it." Hayasaka Ai seemed to have seen through it all along; she understood Kaguya's situation better than Kaguya herself.

"Confess? To beat him to it! No way, no way! My feelings for him aren't quite at the point where I should confess, are they? I should wait. Besides, how many people would like him?" Kaguya regained her composure. In her mind, no one should like Gao Yumo. Of course, this was probably related to the fact that they weren't in the same class in elementary school, and she had no idea what he was like in class. Speaking of which, Ai was in the same class as him, I wonder what she was like?

Looking at Hayasaka Ai, he decided to have her gather some information for him.

Chapter 11 Earth Burial

"elder brother!"

Gao Yumo, still fast asleep, vaguely heard a loud shout. Before she was fully awake, she was still wondering what it was when suddenly...

"Ah! What's going on!" He felt a heavy blow to his stomach, quickly got up, and saw an orange object on his body. It was she who had given him that hard blow.

He scratched his head. What's wrong with this girl all of a sudden?

Gao Yumo wanted to move the girl, who looked like a hamster and was wearing a cloak, away, but having just woken up and after the hard blow, he was too weak to move and could only speak.

"Xiaomai, get up, I'm awake."

"Today is the first day of high school for us. If we don't get up now, we'll be late!" Xiaomai said excitedly, but still got up from Gao Yumo's body.

Gao Yumo looked at his younger sister, who was wearing a hamster pajama cloak. She didn't look like a 16-year-old girl like him, about to enter high school. How could she change size so easily after putting on this cloak?

How did she manage to have two heads? Even though her mother had brought her back three years ago, Gao Yumo still didn't understand.

"I'm up, but are you sure you want to watch me change?" Gao Yumo said to Doma Umaru with a smirk, wanting to see how the girl would react.

"Ah, I don't want to see, I'm going out." Sure enough, she fled in panic, and in the kind of fleeing with her eyes covered.

Doma Umaru, during Takahata Momo's first year of middle school, one day Takahata Hikari brought home a child from outside, who seemed to be her best friend's child. As for her best friend? She was going to leave the child to Doma Umaru, so where could she go?

After arriving at Gao Yu's house, she did not change her name and still used the surname Tsuchi. At first, she was completely unable to get over the grief of her parents' passing, so Gao Yumo had no choice but to stay with her and try various methods.

Until the game came along, she got hooked on it and used it as a way to escape reality. At first, Umaru was a very obedient and well-behaved girl, even though she was always a little sad.

But ever since she got into games and comics, her true colors have been revealed. Besides using them as a way to distract herself, she has become genuinely addicted.

However, things are much better now. Thanks to Gao Yumo's tireless efforts, her addiction to those things is not as strong anymore. At least in Gao Yumo's opinion, things have improved.

After Xiaomai left, Gao Yumo started changing her clothes. Today was the day she started high school, so of course she had to change into the school uniform. As for which school?

It's a rather abstract name: Toyo no Soubu High School. I heard that it used to be two schools, but they merged for some reason. Gao Yumo found this school online and decided to attend it. As for the reason? Those who know, know.

The uniform of Toyo no Soubu High School is quite nice. It's all black, and Takaha Mo likes this color. Of course, there are some white accents inside, otherwise the all-black uniform would look a bit strange.

After Gao Yumo changed her clothes, there was a knock on the door.

"Young master, may I come in?" It was Kaname's voice.

“Of course, Nami-nee, I already told you you don’t need to knock before coming into my room.” Gao Yumo smiled and turned towards the door. Kagami Nami was still in her maid outfit, standing at the door, while Doma Umaru was still there, peering out from the doorway.

"There's a reason I didn't just come in." Kagami smiled at Umaru beside her. If Takayuki didn't dress properly and just went in, wouldn't Umaru see everything?

"I see." Gao Yumo also saw Xiaomai peeking out. She was still in her chibi form, which was probably easier to spot than when she turned back to her normal form, where her head would be much smaller.

"Xiao Mai, you said we're going to be late, why don't you go change your clothes?" Gao Yumo stared at Xiao Mai's face. This girl only talked about him, what about herself?

"Hmph, big brother, you underestimate me! My school uniform is worn underneath." Umaru lifted her cloak, and sure enough, Toyono Soubu High School's school uniform was worn underneath.

"Okay, by the way, is there anything you need, Nami-nee?" Gao Yumo didn't expect that Umaru would do this, so she ignored her and looked at Waka Nami.

"I just came to wake you up, but I didn't expect someone had already helped me. Thank you, Umaru."

"You're welcome," Xiaomai said, hands on her hips, looking quite smug. But seeing her like that, Gao Yumo felt another sharp pain in her stomach.

"Let's forget it, Xiaomai. I can't handle your wake-up methods for more than a few times." Gao Yumo quickly covered his stomach, stopping Xiaomai from continuing to wake him up in this way.

"whee."

"What method?" Kazunami asked as she watched the young master clutch his stomach and lift Umaru up. Umaru then whispered in her ear.

Kaname thought for a moment, then glanced at Komo.

"Nami-nee, you're not going to do that too, are you? I can still handle Umaru being like this a few times, but if you do it just once, I might not be able to get up." Gao Yumo saw that Kagami Nami seemed eager to try it and felt that she should stop her. If she really did it just once, she would be finished.

"You mean I'm heavy?" Upon hearing this, a dangerous glint appeared in Kaname's eyes as she looked at Takayuki. Her smile was also frightening to Takayuki.

"How could that be? Come if you want! How could I not be able to handle it, Nami-nee!" Gao Yumo felt like he had given up. Waking him up was a matter for tomorrow, but if he didn't say anything, then he wouldn't have a tomorrow.

Waka Nami's personality has changed a lot as she's grown up. The biggest change is that she starts joking around at work, which was something I would never have thought of before. But Takahashi feels that Nami is better now; she's no longer just a work machine.

"Alright, I won't do that. Breakfast is ready, come down and eat." Kagami gave Gao Yumo a meaningful look before turning and leaving. She said she wouldn't, but that didn't mean she couldn't get someone else to bring it.

"Brother, come down quickly!" Umaru followed Kaname and took off her hamster cloak along the way, transforming back into her perfect form. If Umaru weren't at home, she would be a perfect girl, with dignified and beautiful manners, perfect grades, and excellent athletic ability.
