Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

"Are you happy enough to leave your homeland?" Zhu Yin smiled playfully.

"Yes, I don't have any personal time. When I was in school, I had some free time on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I could go to comic shops. Look at what has happened since then."

Xiaohui suddenly appeared beside Shiyu and said in a voice just loud enough for Zhuyin to hear:

"On Mondays after school, Shiyu-senpai would sometimes disappear while walking down the street with us."

Zhu Yin couldn't help but laugh when she heard that. How could she not understand that Xiaohui meant that Shiyu disappeared and ran away to Bai Ye's house.

"I seem to remember that Xiaohui would suddenly disappear on Thursdays, saying that she was going to the supermarket to buy vegetables? Sometimes when I asked her what vegetables she bought, she wouldn't reply." Shiyu glanced sideways.

Zhu Yin clapped lightly, without any psychological burden to add fuel to the fire.

"Go on, go on, I just love to hear about dark history~"

Shiyu and Xiaohui immediately booed. No one likes to be the one to reap the benefits.

"Zhu Yin, don't underestimate Shi Yu and Xiao Hui. They are very difficult to deal with when they join forces." Bai Ye kindly reminded.

"Can I ask you for help then, my dear husband? All you need is your secret weapon~"

Shiyu and Xiaohui were speechless.

Isn't Zhu Yin the one who is least willing to die and feel uncomfortable?

However, Bai Ye held back, patted Zhu Yin's waist and touched her head, and then picked out this week's new magazines with everyone.

"I've bought all the new issues, but unfortunately I can't get the year-end specials. This shop is really good. They even sell niche publications from Hokkaido. If I buy online in Tokyo, it takes half a week for them to arrive."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Novels have a smaller audience than comics, and books from certain regions won't be shipped to Tokyo for sale."

Zhu Yin and Shi Yu returned with a lot of things. As serious novel lovers, they especially loved to look for novels that were not available in Tokyo, and their baskets were almost full.

Xiaohui came back from a walk around the comic book store.

"I didn't see Eriri. I wonder where she went."

Chapter 1097: Interesting Stories

Akane was the first to express her doubt when Xiaohui couldn't find any trace of Eriri after searching all the comic shops.

"Mei, have you really looked everywhere?"

Noticing the way Akane winked as she spoke, Hui realized it wasn't just a question, and she became hesitant to respond again.

"Maybe, I've looked for them all, right..."

Bai Ye touched her little head, with no blaming expression on his face.

This comic book store is located in the city and is quite large, so it must have a special area.

18x sales area.

It is well known that Xiaohui is shy outside and has never stepped into the 18x sales area. Even if she has seen the book, she got it from Bai Ye or Eriri.

Xiaohui just said that she went to all the comic stores, but when she came to the 18x area, she just took a quick look and left.

Seeing this, Shiyu also stepped forward to comfort her.

"Look at Hui, she's much purer than us, I'm so envious..."

"Senior Shiyu's tone doesn't seem to be very comforting. Instead, it seems like she's saying I'm inexperienced."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll let you broaden your horizons later, Xiaohui."

Bai Ye led everyone towards the 18x area. This mysterious area, which countless adolescent boys yearned for but were afraid to enter, was only separated from the all-age area by a wall. There was a black curtain at the entrance with 18x written in conspicuous red.

"Eriri... wow, there you are! You've changed your clothes, I didn't recognize you at first!"

Eriri wore a black cloth mask and sunglasses, and even her signature golden twintails were tucked into her coat. If you weren't someone who spent every day with her, you probably wouldn't recognize her.

She pretended to read the book in her hand, but her eyes were darting around restlessly, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, but most often towards the 18x area.

"What is Yinglili doing? Aren't you going in? You've already prepared your disguise." Xiaohui was confused.

Bai Ye nodded to the side.

"There's a waiter guarding the door. In the past, they only checked age at the cashier, and sometimes they didn't. Today is near the end of the year, and maybe someone from higher up asked for a strict check, so there's a waiter guarding the door."

"Bai Yejun really knows how many times he has come here."

"This level of criticism can't hurt me. A gentleman should be well-informed."

"Xiaobai-jun, have you ever been asked to check?" Shiyu asked curiously.

"No, really. First, I never wear school uniform. Second, my gentlemanly demeanor makes me look down on everyone. Third, the clerk is lazy."

"What gentlemanly demeanor..." Zhu Yin debunked his words. "It's probably Ye Jun's demeanor and demeanor when he's talking business. He's so mature beyond his years, I'm too lazy to check even as a clerk."

While Bai Ye was speaking, Ying Lili still did not take any further action, but everyone could see that she was very anxious, perhaps waiting for the doorman to go to the bathroom.

"If we wait any longer, the daylily will get cold, Zhu Yin..."

Zhu Yin understood that Bai Ye wanted her to take action, so she waved her hand.

"No rush, I'll tease Eriri in the chat group first. Everyone, please step back so she doesn't find out."

"Xiaobaijun, you're not going? Didn't you say you've never been discovered?" Shiyu joked.

"My clothes are not very good today."

"Tsk...boring. I'm still thinking about exposing you when you're pretending."

white night"……"

On the other side, Eriri became more and more anxious as she looked at the message sent by Zhu Yin in the chat group, biting her nails and stamping her feet.

She checked and found that the special edition book she wanted was available today. If she went back to Tokyo to buy it, she was afraid that the store would disappear after this opportunity.

"Why isn't the clerk leaving yet... why are you so dedicated? Go home for dinner during the holiday! Ahhhh—Azuna-senpai is urging me to go. If I don't go back, it will be so embarrassing if everyone sees me buying notebooks here."

However, she was in such a hurry that she didn't notice Zhu Yin approaching quietly from behind, and she didn't expect that all her actions had already been seen by everyone.

"Hey--!"

Akane suddenly patted Eriri's shoulder, nearly scaring the latter to death.

"Has the notebook not been bought yet? Everyone is waiting impatiently."

"Who, who buys the book? I'm reading a comic... I just forgot the time."

Zhu Yin didn't even want to say that she had confessed.

"Anything is fine. Let's go back. Sayuri's dinner is almost ready."

"Hey, no, wait—"

The notebook comes first, and the meal comes second. Eriri has the upper hand in terms of intelligence. She is neither stupid nor shameless.

The Zhu Yin in front of them was the only one who could enter the 18x area among their group. As an otaku, she also liked to read comics. As long as they asked her for help, she would most likely help.

"Azuna-senpai, I'd like to ask you for a small favor~"

Zhu Yin was not in a hurry and started to act with dignity.

"How small?"

"Just help me find some books. I'll pay for it. I'll treat you to milk tea later~" Ying Lili forced out her brightest smile.

"What new publication is not here? Looking for a notebook?" Zhu Yin smiled playfully.

Seeing that her little thoughts were exposed, Ying Lili stopped pretending.

How can face be as good as a notebook?!

"Uh... there are a few bonus books I really want... just these few... there's always someone watching me at the door, it's so annoying."

"Okay, I happen to want to buy something too. You don't have to buy me milk tea. Just do me a small favor when we get back to the hotel."

Ying Lili nodded hurriedly and respectfully handed over the note she had written in advance.

. . . . . .

Zhu Yin was carrying a basket of books to pay the bill, and Eriri was two steps behind her. Seeing that everyone was waiting in front, she pretended nothing had happened and returned to the line.

"Uh... sorry, I was so engrossed in the comics that I didn't notice the time."

Bai Ye pulled her golden twin ponytails out of her clothes, smiled knowingly, and stared at Eriri so hard that she avoided his gaze.

Looking at the basket of books Akane bought, even if I didn't know in advance that Eriri bought a notebook, I knew there must be one for Eriri among them.

"Let's go back. Sayuri is calling for dinner. If you're not hungry, I am."

……

It was almost dark when they returned to the hotel.

Bingtang and Chuhai helped everyone carry things, and everyone was resting after being exhausted from shopping for an afternoon.

"Where is Sayuri?" Bai Ye asked.

"Auntie is cooking in the yard."

Bai Ye came to the yard and saw Sayuri sitting in front of the charcoal stove, with the soup pot in front of her bubbling.

Hearing the sound, Sayuri turned around and saw that it was Bai Ye. A smile appeared on her face, just like a wife who cooks dinner at home and waits for her husband to come home from get off work.

"Xiao Jun is back."

"Yeah, I'm back a little late. How can I help you?"

Sayuri shook her head.

"It's almost ready, dinner will be served soon. Um, that is..."

Sayuri paused, as if the following words were difficult to say.

Bai Ye walked up to her and hugged her without saying a word. He carried her away from the charcoal stove and carried her to the wall, then hugged her tightly. His right hand slowly stroked and played with her soft hair.

"I remember. I always remember."

Bai Ye always remembered that he had promised Sayuri to tell everyone that she was going to move into a new house.

"I haven't forgotten, I'm just..."

Sayuri used her slender fingers to block his next words, and her eyes were no longer worried.

"As long as Xiao Jun hasn't forgotten, nothing else matters."

After saying that, Sayuri rested her head on Bai Ye's chest and rubbed her face against him gently.

Dapa——

Just then, the courtyard door opened.

Chapter 1098 I Want to Hug Sayuri Every Day

The yard gate opened.

Bai Ye and Sayuri hugged each other at the corner of the yard gate. It took only a second from the time they heard the sound to the time they realized they should let go.

But no matter how fast they reacted, it was not faster than light, and the onlookers saw their reluctant embrace.

“Ala Ala~~”

When they heard the voice of the person coming, Sayuri was the first to breathe a sigh of relief. There was still some confusion and doubt in Bai Ye's eyes, but the panic had dissipated.

"We just got home, and you can't hold back, Lord Ye?"

The person who came was Zhu Yin.

Bai Ye couldn't understand why he felt that being discovered by Zhu Yin would be better than being discovered by others.

Maybe it’s because Akane and Sayuri have a better relationship, and Sayuri contributed to Akane’s joining the harem?

Bai Ye coughed twice to show that he was getting over it, and let go of Sayuri in his arms but not completely, their arms still touching each other vaguely.

Zhu Yin, who caught this scene, didn't look embarrassed at all, but instead became more angry.

"Go ahead, just pretend I'm not here. I haven't seen you all day, and I totally understand that a little absence makes the world go round."

Sayuri's face turned red after what she said, but she didn't distance herself from Bai Ye.

"Cough-cough-"

Bai Ye coughed twice again, and after his expression eased a little, he said:

"Azumane, why are you out? It's so cold outside."
