In the anime, cultivating a girlfriend starts from childhood

The tree grew almost to Eriri's balcony.

Ryosuke carefully climbed up to the branch and easily jumped onto the balcony of Eriri's room.

Fortunately, her room is on the second floor, otherwise there would be nothing we could do.

In addition, the floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open, so there was no need to re-enact the window-smashing scene.

Ryosuke Hiratsuka took off his outdoor shoes on the balcony and walked over to Eriri.

He shook her shoulders gently with his hands and called softly, "Eri?"

Unexpectedly, Eriri turned a deaf ear to his voice.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke grabbed Eriri's shoulders from the front and shouted, "Eriri!"

The shout was like thunder, and after a while, Eriri seemed to regain consciousness.

At this moment, Eriri's face looked like she was half crying and half smiling, and she said in surprise: "Ryosuke, you're here? Look, I drew a better work than Yumeno Sakiko!"

Ryosuke Hiratsuka glanced at the drawing board and saw nothing but messy lines.

Ryosuke is very worried about Eriri's abnormal mental state.

He whispered, "Stop drawing, Eriri."

Eriri tilted her head in confusion, "Eh? Why? Are you still not satisfied with my work?"

Then she grinned and said tiredly, "It doesn't matter. If you are not satisfied with this one, I can draw a better one."

"I said stop drawing! Eriri!"

Hiratsuka Ryosuke's tone was very stern at this moment, and he shouted at Eriri.

This roar seemed to have directly called back Eriri's soul.

Ying Lili was stunned at first, then she thought of the scene of her own failure and pursed her lips uncontrollably.

She raised her head and glanced at Ryosuke pitifully.

At this time, she could no longer hold on and threw herself into Ryosuke Hiratsuka's arms and burst into tears.

"Wow! Ryosuke, I can't draw it. I can't draw it at all."

"I...I can't compare to Yumeno Sakiko, I can't compare to her!"

"I'm so useless... I'm really useless!"

"Please don't abandon me. I will definitely become the best illustrator in the future."

Tears soaked Hiratsuka Ryosuke's clothes.

Through Eriri's words, he roughly deduced the reason for her emotional breakdown.

This strong-willed girl, who didn't want to be abandoned by him, was devastated by a painter she had never met.

"Don't think too much, Eriri. I won't change the artist."

Hiratsuka Ryosuke smoothed the other person's blonde hair and spoke to comfort him.

"I'm sorry... I'm really sorry. I'm not as good as you think. I can't draw better than others."

"In my heart, you are the best illustrator."

"Don't use such tricks to trick children on me!"

Eriri suddenly shouted excitedly. Rather than hearing such a beautiful lie, she wanted to hear Hiratsuka Ryosuke blame her for her incompetence in a realistic manner.

Maybe this will make you feel better.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke held Eriri's fair and delicate face in his hands and wiped away her tears with his fingers.

Then he squatted down slightly and looked straight into Eriri's tearful eyes.

He whispered, "Don't forget, we are partners. How could I let you fight alone?"

Finally, he gently tucked Eriri's hair behind her ears.

A rare smile flashed across Hiratsuka Ryosuke's usually calm face.

He said seriously, word by word: "So, I will definitely help you become the best illustrator worthy of the name."

Chapter 64: Yumeno Sakiko's True Identity

"Thank you, Ryosuke, thank you for not giving up on such a helpless me."

Eriri buried her head in Hiratsuka Ryosuke's arms and murmured softly.

Won't you leave me to fight alone?

That's too cunning of a thing to say, you idiot Ryosuke.

Eriri stopped crying and her voice became calm.

But her heart was not so calm at this moment.

A blush appeared on her fair and delicate face.

"Cuckoo~"

A subtle voice suddenly sounded in the house.

Eriri buried her head deeper, her face turned redder, and panic flashed in her deep blue eyes.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke caught a glimpse of the cold leftovers in the corner.

He noticed that Ying Lili seemed to have not eaten much since last night.

This child clearly has hypoglycemia and even fainted once at school before. Doesn’t he really take care of his body?

In addition, it seems that it is not suitable to eat raw or cold food after being hungry for too long.

Ryosuke had already made a plan in his mind.

He slowly pushed Eriri away from his arms and ruffled her blonde hair.

"Eri, remember to eat on time." Ryosuke said with a little concern, "Wait a moment, I'll get you something to eat."

Ryosuke Hiratsuka picked up the leftovers, turned around, opened the locked door, and walked downstairs.

Eriri didn't feel hungry at first.

But after hearing what the other party said, I now feel my stomach is deflated.

But, can Ryosuke also cook? This is the first time I know this.

She stretched, revealing her smooth, white belly.

He yawned, some tears welling up in his eyes.

I had been working hard since last night and felt sticky, so I walked towards the bathroom.

Go take a shower first.

Before leaving, she looked back at her work, her eyes becoming increasingly dim.

She placed her right hand in front of herself, and could even see that it was trembling slightly.

Ying Lili tightly grasped her right wrist with her left hand and forced herself to cheer up. Soon, the sound of water splashing was heard in the bathroom.

the other side.

Sayuri Sawamura saw Ryosuke Hiratsuka coming down from the second floor carrying the remaining food.

There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes. How did Hiratsuka-kun come down from the second floor? He had clearly gone out just now.

However, Sayuri Sawamura didn't pay too much attention to these details because she wanted to know more about her daughter's current situation.

She walked up to Ryosuke and asked with concern, "Hiratsuka-kun, what about Eriri?"

Hiratsuka Ryosuke always respected his elders. He stopped and smiled slightly, "Aunt Sawamura, don't worry too much. She's fine now."

Then he continued, "Where is your kitchen? Ying Lili hasn't eaten for a long time, so she's not suitable for eating raw or cold food. I want to make some food that she can eat now."

When Sayuri Sawamura heard this, the huge rock hanging in the air in her heart slowly fell to the ground.

Knowing that my daughter was fine, I felt relieved.

She blinked her lively eyes, smiled and said, "Eh? Hiratsuka-kun can cook? In this day and age, it's rare to find boys who can cook. This is a big plus~"

In the kitchen.

Ryosuke Hiratsuka discovered that there were still some live shrimps in the pond.

Open the refrigerator and you will find condiments such as chives and ginger.

It is not suitable to eat oily food when you have been hungry for too long, so make a pot of low-fat, high-protein and high-nutrition shrimp porridge.

Half an hour later.

Ying Lili walked down from the second floor.

She was wearing a pure white nightgown. At this moment, she did not tie her hair into two ponytails as usual, and her golden hair fell naturally like a waterfall.

The tip of my nose twitched slightly, and the aroma of food rushed into my nasal cavity.

She was like an innocent elf, with a light figure and small steps towards the kitchen.

Just then I met Ryosuke Hiratsuka who was walking out with a bowl of porridge.

"Eri, come and eat something."

At the dinner table, Eriri and Sayuri Sawamura sat opposite each other.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke sat next to Eriri.

"I'm starting~"

Ying Lili clasped her hands together and then scooped a spoonful of porridge with a spoon.

She pouted her lips and blew gently on the spoon.

When he put the porridge into his mouth, his eyes suddenly widened.

Is it so delicious?!

It was tastier than the porridge she had had in many restaurants before.

Is Ryosuke also so good at cooking?

She seemed to have discovered something extraordinary again.

Although Ryosuke seems to be aloof on the surface, he is actually very considerate.

She is just like the male protagonist in "Toradora!", with the same contrast in appearance and the unknown attributes of a wife.

Ying Lili used her left hand to gently pull her hair behind her ears, revealing her jade-white neck.

Drink the porridge while blowing air.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke checked the time, stood up and took off his apron.

"Well then Aunt Sawamura, and Eriri, I'll be leaving now."

"Eh? Hiratsuka-kun, aren't you going to stay and eat something? The food you cook is delicious."

Sayuri Sawamura wanted to keep this considerate boy and observe him more.

"My sister is waiting for me at home." Ryosuke Hiratsuka explained the reason.

"Hiratsuka-kun is really a good boy who cares about his family. Then you go. Remember to come and visit often when you have time." Sayuri Sawamura smiled gently.

When Ryosuke left Sawamura's house, he looked back at Eriri.

I noticed that although she kept smiling, I noticed that the gloom in her eyes still lingered for a long time.

Ryosuke made a secret decision in his heart, then strode away from the Sawamura family.

As the guests left, Sayuri Sawamura suddenly turned her gaze to her daughter, with no concealment of the scrutiny in her eyes.

"Mom...what are you doing?" Ying Lili was a little scared by her mother's stare, and her voice was a little weak.

"Lily, your friend is really a good kid. He's handsome, good at studying, good at sports, good at cooking, and so gentle and considerate."

Sayuri Sawamura teased.

Hearing her mother's words, Ying Lili's little face suddenly turned red and her eyes became vague.
