My fiancée Yukino

Yukino's words also made Sakurajima Mai, who was standing next to Luo Bai, laugh.

"Yukino is really something. It's only because cats don't understand human language that I would have scratched her a couple of times."

Luo Bai nodded with a smile: "That's true, but this orange cat is indeed quite fat."

The description on the cat's room sign shows that this orange cat is about two and a half years old, has been spayed/neutered, and weighs 7 kilograms, which is quite fat.

It seems that after being taken in by the veterinary hospital, it has really been eating and drinking well, and no longer needs to compete with other male cats for territory or mates in the wild, and has completely turned into a fat orange cat.

Although chubby orange cats are quite cute, Luo Bai personally prefers cats that are in better physical condition.

After some deliberation, the little ones next to them finally chose a three-month-old black kitten and a six-month-old calico kitten, intending to adopt both.

These two kittens are indeed very cute, especially their big, bright eyes. They are not afraid of people and are easy to approach.

After deciding on a cat to adopt, the veterinarian's assistant will take everyone to complete the adoption procedures. After finding a home for a stray cat, the hospital will keep the owner's contact information and will contact them regularly to prevent any abuse of the cat.

After completing the formalities, it was time to spend some money. I bought cat beds, cat food, and other things for the two kittens, and then happily left the pet hospital with the cats.

Volume 1: Chapter 167 Yang Nai's Telegram (2/2)

After bringing the adopted kitten home, Yukino went upstairs to help set up the kitten's new home.

Kanroji Mitsuri returned at this moment and came out immediately after hearing the noise, and started eating some snacks.

Taking a bite of daifuku, Kanroji Mitsuri asked curiously, "Disneyland? Can we go there too?"

Luo Bai said with a smile, "We can't possibly leave you two alone when we get there, can we? That place is quite suitable for a date. Once we get there, you two can do whatever you want. We won't be third wheels."

Kanroji Mitsuri nodded happily: "Thank you, Luo-kun!"

She had seen Disneyland online after learning to use a mobile phone, and it was indeed a very magical place. However, because Obanai Iguro was going to have surgery recently, she ignored it after seeing it.

She is incredibly excited to learn that everyone is going out together this weekend.

When you're in a good mood, you tend to eat daifuku faster.

After helping the little guys set up their new home for the two cats, Yukino went back home with Rakuhaku and Mai Sakurajima.

After coming down, Mai Sakurajima didn't go back to her own place, but instead followed Luo Bai and Yukino to their place.

After all this time, Mai Sakurajima has been able to face Luo Bai with a normal attitude, but occasionally when their eyes meet, she still can't help but blush.

But it's not to the point of wanting to run away.

They took out their homework and started working on it in the living room.

Although there are many random things happening around them, their studies cannot be neglected, especially for Luo Bai and Xue Nai, who still remember their promise about the final exam rankings.

It's the end of May now, and there's only one month left until the final exams at the beginning of July.

Luo Bai wasn't in a hurry, but Yukino had gradually put games aside, reducing their importance and focusing on her studies, determined to reclaim her first place in the grade during the final exams.

After finishing her math homework, Mai Sakurajima looked up at Yukino, who was diligently working on her problems, and then at Luo Bai, who had efficiently finished his English homework and was petting a kitten. A smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

Luo Bai looked up as if sensing something, and then saw Mai Sakurajima's smile.

"What's wrong? Why are you laughing so happily?"

Mai Sakurajima's face flushed red, and she quickly lowered her head, saying, "No, it's nothing."

She's really shy.

Although she has a figure as good as Haruno and Kasumigaoka Utaha, Sakurajima Mai is incredibly innocent, unlike the other two who can drive without any pressure.

Even Yukino wouldn't be this shy.

At this moment, Yukino also looked up at the two of them and said, "How about I go back to my room to do my homework and give you two some space? Or you can go to your room, it's almost the end of the month, and my period is coming soon."

Mai Sakurajima had never experienced such a speed before. Her face flushed, she packed up her textbooks, then stood up, clutching them.

"I've finished my homework, I'm going home now!"

Watching Mai Sakurajima leave, Yukino frowned and looked at Luo Bai, saying, "Senpai is even more shy than I imagined. She wasn't like this when we were talking before."

"Um...can I ask what you guys talked about?"

"For example, you could confess your feelings to her, and then have some time alone together."

Although it was said rather cryptically, Luo Bai understood exactly what Yukino meant, just like how he stayed at Yang Nai's place on Saturday.

"...Yukino, it hasn't been long, and you can already drive without batting an eye?"

Yukino said with a smile, "It's all turned into your shape now, what do you say?"

"Uh, well, that's true."

To be honest, even Luo Bai himself found this contrast a bit overwhelming.

Luo Bai put the kitten in his arms aside, moved closer, and held Yukino tightly in his arms, asking, "It's almost here. How are you feeling now?"

"It's alright, just a little tired, but now that I've drunk Miss Lucoa's potion, I'm definitely much better than before."

Snuggling against Luo Bai, Yukino said confidently, "As long as I keep training for a while, running a long-distance race in PE class will definitely not be a problem."

In the past, this would have been something Yukino would never have dared to even dream of.

But now she has enough physical strength to do sports like long-distance running.

Looking at Luo Bai, Xue Nai said, "You'd better train hard, or I'll surpass you in physical fitness in the future."

Luo Bai chuckled and pinched Yukino's smooth cheek, looking at her and saying, "Don't worry, I won't give you that chance."

After being affectionate for a while, the two continued studying.

At 9:30 p.m., Luo Bai finished showering and came out first, and his phone, which was in the living room, rang.

It was Yang No who called.

Luo Bai picked up the phone and pressed the answer button: "Good evening, Yang Nai-jie."

Good evening, Xiaobai! Did you miss me?

Yang Nai's energetic voice came through, and Luo Bai laughed after hearing it: "Hmm, I was thinking about it. You didn't call during the day. Were you very busy?"

“Yes, there’s a lot to do. I have a paper to write, and I also have things to do at the company.” Lying on the sofa in the living room of the apartment, Yang Nai said, “I was thinking that I didn’t have class tomorrow afternoon, so I could come back for a visit, but it seems that I don’t have time now. I have to finish the paper tomorrow.”

Luo Bai nodded: "That is indeed quite tiring, so please don't make the trip back and forth. Well, if you don't want to cook at home, I can cook it and bring it to you. At my speed, it won't take much time, maybe ten minutes if I'm slow."

"Yes!"

Yang Nai suddenly realized, "I almost forgot, Xiao Bai, your flying speed is incredibly fast. Why don't you come over tomorrow, okay?"

Luo Bai glanced at Yukino who came out of the bathroom, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll make you an extra portion for dinner tomorrow and bring it over."

"Mua! I'm looking forward to it. I need to take a shower now. I need to get some rest early tonight. I have class early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then Yang Nai, you should get some rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Bai opened his arms to Yukino who was walking over. The girl sat on his lap and leaned against him.

Having just taken a shower, the scent of shower gel and shampoo lingered on her body. Her thin pajamas felt almost weightless, and holding them in her arms made Luo Bai feel incredibly comfortable.

Yukino, also feeling Luo Bai's warmth, squinted and said, "Should I bring lunch to my sister tomorrow?"

"Yes, she's been busy with her thesis and company matters these past few days, so she's been quite tired. I suggested I make a trip to bring her some food, since ordering takeout is just too unhealthy."

Yukino didn't object and nodded, saying, "Yes, it is indeed very tiring. Let's go then."

Volume 1: Chapter 168 Delivering Food (1/2)

On Tuesday afternoon, Luo Bai didn't participate in club activities after class because he had to deliver food to Yang Nai. He went home alone first.

Yukino had originally planned to come back together, but around noon, Yuuta Togashi and Rikka Takanashi came by and said they had something they wanted to ask the Service Club to do, so Yukino went back home in the afternoon.

I had no choice but to stay for now.

"I wonder what kind of requests Togashi and the others have. I'm a little curious about these requests from those chuunibyou guys."

While taking the chicken wings out of the refrigerator, Luo Bai pondered and said, "Togashi Yuta, Takanashi Rikka, Mayday Kurenai, and Dekomori Sanae. Hmm, I remember now, we're missing Mori-sama, Nibutani Morika. Could it be related to her?"

Shaking his head, Luo Bai stopped thinking about it and focused on preparing dinner.

After working for more than ten minutes, a text message came in.

It wasn't sent by Hinano, but by Kasumigaoka Utaha.

What was sent was a photo, which was a physical sample of the first volume of Kasumigaoka Utaha's novel, "Love Metronome".

My phone vibrated again; another message had arrived.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: [Luo-kun, the novel arrived early today! I'll send it to you!]

"It arrived today? It's a day early."

Luo Bai nodded, then remembered that he was going to Tokyo soon, so he started replying to messages.

Luo Bai: [Are you at the publishing house now? How late will you be working today?]

Kasumigaoka Utaha: [First, I need to confirm if there are any issues with the printing of the sample copies. Then, I need to discuss the upcoming marketing strategy with the editor, as well as a series of matters such as getting the products on shelves and distributed in various locations. I also need to confirm the artwork for the upcoming promotions with several collaborating illustrators. I estimate I'll be busy until six or seven o'clock.]

"Six or seven o'clock..."

Luo Bai nodded, looked at the ingredients in front of him, then opened the refrigerator and took some out before replying to Kasumigaoka Utaha's message.

Luo Bai: [I'm just about to come to Tokyo. If you haven't decided on dinner yet, I can make some and bring it over. If your editor wants some, I can bring two servings.]

Inside the Shinazugawa Publishing House, Kasumigaoka Utaha, sitting next to editor Machida Sonoko, immediately showed a surprised and delighted expression upon seeing Luo Bai's reply.

Machida Sonoko saw this and asked with a smile, "You seem so happy. Did your sweetheart say something to you?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha put down her phone, squinted at Machida Sonoko, and said, "If you want a hot meal for dinner, you'd better tone it down a bit, Sonoko-nee."

"kindness?"

Machida Sonoko blinked, puzzled.

Kasumigaoka Utaha then said, "Raku-kun told me that he's coming to Tokyo and if I haven't decided what to have for dinner yet, he can bring me a homemade bento box."

"Huh? Really?" Machida Sonoko said in surprise, "Does that Luo Bai-kun know how to cook?"

“I told you before, he came here to study abroad, so he learned to cook,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile. “Given his personality, he wouldn’t have offered to bring me food if it wasn’t good.”

Upon hearing this, Machida Sonoko couldn't help but swallow hard.

These past few days, she hasn't had a proper meal because she's been busy with the publication of Kasumigaoka Utaha's novel and other miscellaneous work.

Without hesitation, Machida Sonoko immediately agreed, got up and took Kasumigaoka Utaha's cup.

"Count me in, I'll go get you some coffee, Shiyu-chan~~"

Although the tone was a bit cheesy, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked Raibai to make an extra bento box, just so that Machida Sonoko wouldn't keep talking nonsense.

Luo Bai had no problem with that; he had plenty of time, and cooking for two more people was easy for him.

"Hmm, cola chicken wings, tomato beef brisket, braised pork, stir-fried loofah, cabbage stew with tofu, plus a corn and pork rib soup, five dishes and one soup, that's enough."

On the way back, Luo Bai bought a few extra large lunch boxes to deliver food to Yang Nai, which came in handy.

Busy and organized, Luo Bai finally finished preparing dinner at five o'clock.

Yukino and Mai Sakurajima returned at that moment.

After packing the food into bento boxes and the soup into a thermos, Luo Bai looked at Yukino and Sakurajima Mai and said, "I'm off. I'll be back in about half an hour. You guys eat first."

Yukino and Mai Sakurajima exchanged a glance and said, "No rush, let's wait for you to come back before we go together."

Mai Sakurajima laughed and said, "That's right, anyway, Luo-kun, you fly very fast, don't you?"

"Okay, then I'll hurry up."

After packing everything into two bags, Luo Bai changed her shoes, opened the door, and flew into the sky under the watchful eyes of the two people, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Mai Sakurajima's mouth dropped open in surprise.

"Wow, that speed is amazing!" She looked at Yukino beside her and asked, "Has Luo-kun ever taken Yukino flying in the sky before?"

Yukino shook her head: "Although I know it's safe, I'm still a little scared to fly in the sky without a means of transportation, especially at such a high place, so I didn't agree after he suggested it."

After hearing this, Mai Sakurajima imagined it and got goosebumps.

"I'm pretty much the same. I wouldn't dare to do this if I didn't have some guts, even though it looks very exciting."

While the two were discussing flying in the sky, Luo Bai spent a little over seven minutes quickly arriving at the Shinazugawa Publishing House, where Kasumigaoka Utaha was currently located.
