"Mom? Why are you back?" This was Sakura's surprised voice coming from the doorway.

The restaurant wasn't far from the entrance, and the girls all heard it. They all turned to look at Gao Yumo and saw his amused smile. They knew that he must have called them back; he hadn't informed them because he wanted to see their reactions.

Xiaomai quickly got off Gao Yumo; it was too embarrassing for her mother to see this.

Ayano Iida was completely taken aback that Sumi's mother, her second-largest boss (the first being Sumi's grandmother), would be home at this time. Was she alright? She seemed okay? After all, Sumi had invited her. Speaking of which, could Sumi have feelings for her too? Or was it just a simple invitation between friends?

She glanced at the girls around her, unsure if they all liked Mo. If they did, then Mo's invitation to her definitely had another meaning.

Ayano Iida's train of thought started to wander. It wasn't until Sakura brought Hiyori Takahata into the room and the girls rushed to greet her that she snapped out of her reverie. Why was she thinking about all that? She'd find out later anyway. For now, she should just leave it at that. Thinking about it for too long might just make her wrong anyway.

She also walked towards Gao Yu Yang Kui, but Gao Yu Yang Kui was surrounded by girls, so she could only watch Mo's mother from the side. She was so young, she looked about the same age as her, and you couldn't tell at all that she was a mother. She was also so beautiful, more beautiful than anyone else here. No wonder Mo was so handsome.

"Mom, how come you have time to come back today?" As soon as Xiaomai got out of her brother's arms, she immediately went to Gao Yuyangkui's side. Even though she was the farthest away, she was the first to run to Yangkui's side.

Yang Kui patted her head: "Xiao Mo said you guys are going on a picnic, how could I possibly miss it?"

"Great! Mom can come too!" Umaru cheered excitedly.

Yang Kui chatted with the girls, mainly asking questions and the girls answering. Yang Kui asked about the situation at home during the time she was away.

"By the way, Mom, you and Nanami probably haven't met before, have you?" Sakura thought for a moment and said, pulling Nanami in front of Ayano Iida and introducing her: "This is a voice actress invited by my brother's club, named Aoyama Nanami. Nanami is our mother, Takahata Hikari."

"Hello, Nanami, may I call you that?" Yang Kui asked Nanami with a gentle smile.

Qi Hai nodded nervously, not expecting to see Mo Jun's mother, and quickly said, "Of course! Please call me whatever you like!"

"Don't be nervous, Xiao Qihai. Since Xiao Mo believes in you, invited you to join the club, and even came to our house, just work hard with everyone from now on. You will definitely become an excellent voice actress." Gao Yuyangui already knew about this girl; Gao Yumo would tell her all about it. But knowing was one thing, but it was the first time she had actually met her. She really was a good girl, and now she just needed to encourage her.

"Yes! Thank you for your encouragement." Nanami nodded happily, pleased to have been recognized by Mo Jun's mother! Although she didn't know why she was so happy, she was just happy.

Gao Yu Yang Kui chatted with the girls for a few minutes. She knew all the girls here; she had met them all at the last barbecue party. She had also introduced Nanami, whom she didn't know.

Then she saw the only person she didn't recognize, Ayano Iida, and they went over to say hello.

"You must be Xiao Mo's editor, right? Xiao Mo told me about you, Ms. Ayano Iida, isn't that right?"

"Yes, hello, Ms. Takahata Hikari," Ayano Iida said respectfully. This was her boss.

"No need for that. You're Xiao Mo's editor, so you're one of us. I hope you'll continue to take good care of Xiao Mo in the future." Gao Yuyang patted her shoulder. She had already checked the girl's information herself, so she trusted her to be Xiao Mo's editor; she was a very serious and responsible person.

"Of course I will! Please don't worry."

"I already told you there's no need for this. Xiao Mo, you should talk to her too." Seeing that Ayano Iida was still very respectful, Gao Yu Yang Kui had no choice but to say to Gao Yu Mo, her tone even carrying a hint of coquetry, which made some girls who were not familiar with Gao Yu Yang Kui feel very strange.

For example, Nanami just now. I didn't expect Mo Jun's mother to have such a personality, but I feel that this kind of personality is easier to get along with.

Sakura and the others knew that their mother and brother had a relationship that was better than they could comprehend. Although they usually didn't show it in front of them, sometimes their mother would turn to their brother when she encountered something she couldn't handle.

Gao Yuyangkui also realized that there were so many people around, and her face turned a little red. Gao Yumo shook his head with amusement, walked over, and hugged Gao Yuyangkui first.

"Welcome home." "Yes."

Then he looked at Ayano Iida. Actually, he didn't need to say anything. After Yang Kui's behavior just now, Ayano Iida could no longer be as respectful to her as before. She felt that Yang Kui's identity here was no longer her boss. Her identity had become Mo's mother, and a mother who would act coquettishly with her son.

The contrast was so great that Ayano Iida changed her attitude immediately, and it would probably be difficult for her to change back. She can no longer be respectful to Aoi Takahata.

However, Gao Yumo still said a few words: "Ayano, my mother is very kind. You don't need to do that at all. It will only make her feel bad."

"But I heard she's a deadpan, strong woman at the company?" Ayano Iida whispered in Takahata's ear.

Gao Yumo nodded and whispered in her ear, "That's why I told you that the company's personality is just a facade, what you see now is the real one. My mother's personality has always been like this; she is indeed very gentle."

Ayano Iida nodded in understanding and looked at Haruki Takaha again: "Hello, may I call you Haruki-san?"

She believed what Gao Yumo said and communicated with Gao Yuyangkui in her usual way, even though she and Gao Yuyangkui were only 10 years apart in age.

“Of course! Ayano, if you want, just call me Haruki.” Haruki was very happy. She was most relaxed at home, and she didn’t like hearing that respectful tone then. This was the best way to put it.

Of course, the most important thing is that she regarded all the girls in this house as Gao Yumo's future wife, which is why she couldn't stand the way Iida Ayano spoke to her just now. Whether it was true or not, that's what she thought.

"Alright, everyone's here, we can set off now!" Gao Yumo clapped her hands, signaling the girls to get ready to leave. The girls excitedly picked up their prepared items, while some helped carry the picnic food, which was already in the picnic baskets and could be easily loaded onto the bus.

Gao Yumo led them to prepare for departure, and before leaving, she asked Sagiri one last time, "Sagiri, are you really not going?"

"I'm not going, brother. I... I'm not ready to leave this house yet," Sagiri said dejectedly.

Gao Yumo gently patted her head, and Yang Kui also walked to their side and hugged Sagiri.

"We definitely can in the future! I also look forward to the day when I can go out with Sagiri." Yang Kui gently hugged Sagiri.

"Mom!" Sagiri said, moved, "I will definitely overcome this as soon as possible! I will definitely go out with you!"

"It's good that you have such determination! We will help you too!" Gao Yumo encouraged Sagiri.

The girls encouraged her, saying that even if it didn't work out this time, there would be another chance.

Gao Yumo also decided to go out more often in the future to give Sagiri more opportunities. She felt that Sagiri would be able to go out soon. She made up her mind today, so she was not far from success. With so many people accompanying her, she was sure she could do it.

Just then, Umaru, who had just gone out with a picnic basket, ran back empty-handed.

"Brother, is that bus outside ours?" she asked curiously, not wanting to get on the wrong bus later.

"Of course, they're all parked outside in front of the gate. Who else could they be but ours? After all, nobody comes near our house," Gao Yumo said to her irritably.

Xiaomai scratched her head: "I just wanted to find out."

Gao Yu Yang Kui stood up and rubbed her slightly red eyes: "Alright, let's go. Have you got everything?"

"Here you go," the girls all said.

"Let's go!" Yang Kui said excitedly. Going out to play with her son and daughters was one of her favorite things. Now there were so many other girls with them. After they married Xiao Mo, wouldn't they all be her daughters?

It's practically like I'm going out to play with my son and more than ten daughters right now, it's so wonderful!

"Have fun!" Sagiri waved to them from the doorway, regretting that she couldn't go, but promising to go next time!

"Be careful at home!" Gao Yumo also reminded Sagiri. "There's some food I made in the refrigerator. You can heat it up in the microwave and eat it."

"Okay, brother. Be careful, everyone." Sagiri waved, watching her brothers and sisters board the bus, then turned and went back into the house, not even stepping out of the doorway the entire time.

Chapter 132 This sunrise will be everyone's most beautiful memory! (2 updates)

The bus departed, with Ayano Iida following behind in her own car.

"Brother, where are we going?" Xiaoying asked Gao Yumo curiously on the way. She looked at the direction the bus was going but couldn't tell where it was headed.

Before Gao Yumo could speak, Huiye guessed first: "A villa on a mountain, I suppose."

"It should be a villa, just like Kaguya said," Yang Kui guessed. She didn't know the destination either; Xiao Mo had notified her of the driver, and she had just been picked up by him in the morning.

Although this driver is her driver, Xiao Mo also has the right to give instructions. As long as she tells her, and makes sure that she doesn't need to use this driver, Xiao Mo can use him as she pleases, since she has more than one driver.

“You’ve all finished talking, what should I say?” Gao Yumo raised an eyebrow. “But this time it’s different. This time it’s definitely a picnic campsite.”

Kaguya and Aoi were both surprised. They hadn't expected this! Didn't they always say the villa was safe? Why the change this time?

The answer is, of course, that chestnuts are with us now. With chestnuts around, what danger could there be?

"However, this picnic campsite is also our family's, a private campsite," Gao Yumo continued. Kaguya and Yang Kui finally understood. It was the same as before; it was all their own property. Gao Yumo said that such places were safe and quiet, and no one would disturb them. Every time they went out, they would choose their own place.

The bus quickly drove up the mountain road and soon arrived at the place Gao Yumo had mentioned. A metal fence blocked the way for anyone who wanted to enter. Two guards in black stood in front of the metal gate. The girls probably didn't know that these guards were all legally armed and all of them were women. These were the elite security guards of the Gao Yu family! They were trained by their own security company.

Normally, this place doesn't have very strict security. Apart from the maids who do the daily maintenance, there aren't any elite security personnel. This time, wasn't it their whole family mobilized? Of course, Gao Yumo had to call people in advance.

This is safer. Of course, their main role is to stop people from coming in; safety is not their responsibility. As I said before, there are always people with chestnuts around.

The security guard stopped their car, got in and glanced inside. The moment he saw Gao Yumo and Gao Yuyangkui, he quickly bowed and then let them pass. They also carefully looked inside Iida Ayano's car before letting it pass.

"So strict?" Even after the car had driven far away, Eriri was still looking at the security guards. Pretty cool, huh?

"For safety reasons," Gao Yumo replied with a smile.

The girls nodded in understanding. After all, Gao Yumo was from a prominent family, and his mother was also there, so safety was indeed important.

The bus continued its journey, passing by a villa along the way.

Kaguya looked at Gao Yumo: "Isn't this still a villa?"

“No,” Gao Yumo shook her head. “We’re going to the camp over there this time, which is a bit far from this villa. Of course, you can rest in the villa if you want.”

"No one should go there," Kaguya said, glancing out the window. She noticed someone in the villa, probably a maid, but didn't pay much attention.

After passing through a cherry blossom grove, the car soon arrived at its destination: an open space covered with a layer of soft grass. Next to the open space was a small wooden house for picnickers to rest, and the entire area around the open space was filled with cherry blossoms. This was Gao Yumo's surprise for the girls!

"Alright, get off the bus, we've arrived." Gao Yumo gestured for the girls to get off. The girls looked excitedly at their destination, it seemed really appealing, and the cherry blossoms were so beautiful! A picnic under the cherry blossoms would be wonderful!

The girls unloaded their belongings, and the female driver helped them carry them as well.

Gao Yumo got out of the car first with a picnic basket, then took out the prepared picnic blankets and spread them on the ground. She laid several blankets on the ground, since there were many people, and placed the picnic baskets next to her.

This open space is located on the edge of a high cliff, with a fence about one person high standing at the edge, and it is set up about half a meter away from the edge of the cliff, so even if someone climbs over the fence, they will not fall directly down.

This open space offers a wide view, with the cliff facing the direction where the sun sets, making it a perfect spot to watch the sunset. Imagine enjoying the sunset surrounded by cherry blossoms – it sounds incredibly romantic. As for the sunrise viewing area, you'll need to explore a bit further to find another open space there.

We can get everything set up here quickly, and then walk over later. There's plenty of time, and we'll definitely be able to see the sunrise.

(Actually, it's too late. Sunrise in Japan is very early, and you can't actually see it from here. But for artistic purposes, let's just pretend you can see it.)

The girls took down their picnic baskets and put them away, along with their backpacks and other personal belongings.

"Let's go watch the sunrise first," Gao Yumo said excitedly to the girls.

"Oh!" Umaru shouted excitedly, full of anticipation.

Everyone set off for another campsite, leaving only the female driver who was originally planning to go back. She was told to wait until Gao Yumo and the others had finished watching the sunrise before going back, and then come back to pick up the girls when they were ready to leave, instead of waiting there any longer.

"Do you prefer sunrise or sunset?" Gao Yumo asked the girls curiously on the way.

"I can't give you an answer to that." Shiyu thought for a moment, then shook her head. "Perhaps I don't care at all..."

"Then what are you still doing here? Otherwise, you could stay there and watch the camp, and let that driver go back and rest." Judging from the tone, it was Eriri who said it.

"Why do you think I came?" Shiyu didn't answer Eriri's question directly, but looked at Takayu Mo, her meaning quite clear.

Eriri immediately knew what she was going to say and stopped talking. If she said anything more, it would be Shiyu's on-the-spot confession, and Aunt Yangkui would be there too. If she heard it, wouldn't she just give Shiyu her blessing? Then she would be finished, she would lose to that woman Shiyu, and she didn't want that.

Shiha felt a little disappointed when Eriri didn't answer. Confessing her feelings would have been a good idea, but since Eriri wasn't cooperating, she gave up.

“Personally, I probably prefer sunrise,” Raphiel said. “Sunrise brings light, while sunset takes it away.”

As expected of an angel, she loves light, even though she is a somewhat fallen angel.

"It doesn't matter." This was the reply from Gabriel, who was being looked at by Gao Yumo, and who was also an angel.

He looked at the demons, and Winette thought for a moment: "It should be sunrise, right? Raphiel's description is quite evocative. I don't really like the dark."

“I’m different. According to you, I like sunsets. But I’m a great demon! Bringing darkness is what I should do! Wahahaha!” Satania scoffed at their words, especially Vinette, who, despite being a demon, liked light. She was different.

Ayano Iida glanced at the girl. "Is she suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)? Why didn't she show it at the Sue family's house? What's wrong with her all of a sudden?"

Actually, after leaving the house, Satania became excited, and the obedient feeling she had at home disappeared. It was as if she had been unsealed and returned to her original personality.

Seeing her like this, the girls shook their heads with amusement. Satania's personality meant that she wasn't embarrassed, but others were. However, they were used to it and didn't feel awkward. After all, Satania was actually a very well-behaved girl, especially when Gao Yumo was around.

While chatting, the group walked to the spot where they watched the sunrise and waited for it to appear.

"Wow, this is really early today. I don't think I've ever gotten up this early before," Gabriel said, yawning.

"That's your own problem, Xiao Jia, isn't it?" Vinette chimed in from the side.

"Alright, look over there, the sun is about to rise!" Gao Yumo clapped his hands, drawing the girls' attention to the direction of the sunrise.

"Look at this beautiful sunrise! Even if you don't like it, as long as we're all here, this will be everyone's most beautiful memory!" Gao Yumo said loudly.

Chapter 133 An impending bloodbath? No way! (3rd update)

"Come on, 3, 2, 1, cheese!"

Everyone stood together, with the rising sun behind them. Gao Yumo took out the camera he had prepared and took pictures of everyone. He set the camera on a tripod and set the timer so that he could also be in the picture.

"Eggplant!"*19.

There were 19 people in total this time. If Sagiri had come, it would have been a round number of 20, but unfortunately she didn't come.

After making a decision, Gao Yumo photoshopped Sagiri onto the image, knowing that with his skills, he could make it look seamless.

"Come and see the photos." Gao Yumo picked up her camera and gestured for the girls to look.

In the photo, Gao Yuyangkui was seated in the very center, with Gao Yumo behind her, her arms around her neck and her head gently resting on Gao Yuyangkui's head. The girls arranged their own positions around her, and they consciously arranged for Gao Yumo's sisters to be closer to Gao Yumo and for the others to be further away.

"Let me see, it's a good shot. The sun is just right in the picture. You chose a great time and place." Kaguya took the camera, looked at it, and praised Gao Yumo.

"Kaguya can compliment people now?" Gao Yumo teased Kaguya. Kaguya just smiled and glanced at him without saying anything, but Gao Yumo knew that Kaguya would usually retort if she was told that. She didn't today because everyone was having fun and she didn't want to ruin the atmosphere. Gao Yumo could only surrender. He was unusually passive today.
