Restarting life, starting from bullying Pochi-chan

"Kitahara-kun is so amazing!"

Kitahara Makoto: “…”

Just talk if you want to, why are you tickling my palm?

Chapter 157 Toyokawa Shoko: Is this a date invitation?

Kitahara Makoto took a half step back calmly:

"Xiaoxiang, I'll leave the rest to you."

I’m sorry, ma’am, your daughter is about to graduate from college, and I really don’t want to know what the flower language of steel wool is!

Before they knew it, it was already noon. Mrs. Sato warmly invited the two to have lunch together, but Kitahara Makoto politely declined.

Kitahara Makoto felt uncomfortable all over when his body was coveted by ladies in their forties or fifties. You know, in ancient times, "middle-aged woman" meant thirty years old, and women in their forties or fifties could only be considered old women!

"Goodbye, ma'am."

Ignoring Mrs. Sato's eager gaze, Kitahara Makoto turned and walked away quickly from the villa.

"Kitahara-san, the reward has been transferred to you."

After the two left the villa, Toyokawa Shoko took out her cell phone and simply transferred the money over. Then she pursed her pink lips and said:

"As for the subsequent weight loss business, it's all Kitahara-san's ability, I will..."

"Stop talking, let's split the money 50-50." Kitahara Makoto interrupted, "I'm only responsible for losing weight. As for finding clients, arranging time, negotiating prices and other trivial matters, leave them all to Xiaoxiang."

"I don't like these trivial things, and I definitely can't handle them all by myself."

“So continue to cooperate, grow bigger and stronger, and create brilliance together.”

"..."

Since ancient times, the reason why partners could not continue to cooperate was almost always because of uneven profit sharing. Kitahara Makoto would naturally not be short-sighted.

Connections are actually a very important resource. For example, in today's exorcism, if it weren't for Toyokawa Shoko's introduction, Mrs. Sato would not have even bothered with him.

Toyokawa Shoko's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes quickly became firm:

"I understand... Leave everything to me."

"The curse aura in your body has not been eliminated yet. If you leave it alone, something might go wrong." Kitahara Makoto continued, "Do you want me to help remove the curse aura?"

"No." Toyokawa Shoko blushed and shook her head quickly, covering her chest with her hands subconsciously. "There's no need to trouble Kitahara-san with that kind of thing... I'm not feeling uncomfortable right now."

In order to remove the cursed aura, you need to take off your clothes. If you’re unlucky, you might even be seen naked... It’s too embarrassing no matter how you think about it!

"Okay then." Kitahara Makoto would not force it, "If anything happens, remember to tell me the first time."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded gently, her eyes warm:

"I know."

"It's already noon." Kitahara Makoto touched his stomach, feeling very happy. "Xiaoxiang, shall we go eat together?"

"it is good."

"It's my treat. We'll have barbecue for lunch today."

"..."

Come to the barbecue restaurant.

Kitahara Makoto and Toyokawa Shoko sat down in the corner, placed their orders, and then turned on the simulator.

"The next step is today's daily tasks..."

[Daily Task 1: Jogging 10 kilometers]

[Task Introduction: Omitted]

[Daily Task 2: 1,000 Push-ups]

[Task Introduction: Omitted]

[Daily Task 3: Go in pairs]

[Task Introduction: Weekends are a time to relax, play in pairs with the opposite sex, and complete at least one chapter]

[Daily Task 4: Childlike Fun]

[Task Introduction: Please choose between climbing a tree to take bird eggs or diving into the water to catch fish and shrimp to complete the task]

Probably because today is Sunday, the four daily tasks are not difficult, especially the fourth one, Childlike Fun. After reading the task introduction, Kitahara Makoto just felt his hands itching.

Catching fish and shrimps is a pleasure that men cannot refuse, no matter how old they are!

It’s fine to climb a tree to pick birds, but now there are bird protection sites everywhere, and if you’re not careful you might end up stepping on a sewing machine.

"Kitahara-san, water."

Toyokawa Shoko came over with two glasses of ice water.

"As for the two-person trip..."

Kitahara Makoto thanked him softly, looked up at Toyokawa Shoko who was sitting opposite him, and asked:

"Does Xiaoxiang have time this afternoon?"

"Eh?" Toyokawa Shoko was slightly startled, "What's wrong?"

Kitahara Makoto:

"There is something that only two people can do, so I would like to ask Xiaoxiang to help me..."

"Wha, what happened?"

Toyokawa Shoko opened her eyes wide and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Something that must be done together?

Is it a date?

impossible!

Kitahara-san is not such an abrupt person!

But...if I really want to go on a date, should I agree?

The girl was struggling when she heard Kitahara Makoto continue:

"There was a very popular game called It Takes Two. It can only be played with two people. I want to play a game to relax today. Does Xiaoxiang have time to play with me?"

Toyokawa Shoko: “…”

Why are you suddenly speaking in such a formal tone? You just want to find someone to play games with?

Stupid Kitahara!

Toyokawa Shoko took a deep breath, bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and spoke with a hint of resentment unconsciously: "I really have nothing to do this afternoon..."

"Then I'll leave it to Xiaoxiang-san." Kitahara Makoto smiled, "Let's eat barbecue first, and then we can go to my house to play games."

"..."

Kitahara Makoto's original plan was to ask Pochi to play together, but unfortunately because of the vacuum incident in the park the day before yesterday, little Pochi didn't dare to go out at all. When she heard that Kitahara Makoto asked her to play games, she sent a series of apologies and said that she had to make a video today. The Guitar Hero account had not been updated for a long time, and she had to update it today no matter what.

The other girls also didn't have time, so they set their sights on Toyokawa Shoko.

Had barbecue.

The two of them went home together.

On the way back, Kitahara Makoto bought a physical game disc of "It Takes Two". He already had a PS5 at home, so there was no need to prepare any.

"I am back."

Kitahara Makoto pushed the door open and walked into the entrance hall.

dong dong dong.

The beast-eared girl came running over with her short legs, raised her little face, and said expressionlessly: "Little cake."

"Give."

Kitahara Makoto handed a small cake to the beast-eared girl, and then handed another small cake to Toyokawa Shoko: "Xiao Xiang, this is your cake."

"Eh?" Toyokawa Shoko was surprised, "I have one too?"

"Of course I have. I will definitely not forget Xiaoxiang." Kitahara Makoto handed over the small cake. "I'll turn on the air conditioner first, then wash my face. Oh, don't get close to the washing machine, or you'll get stuck in it."

Looking at Kitahara Makoto walking into the bathroom, Toyokawa Shoko pursed her pink lips slightly, her eyes fell on the small cake, then her pretty face slightly blushed and she took a light bite.

Pack it up.

The two sat down in front of the TV, and Kitahara Makoto handed the game controller to Toyokawa Shoko: "Have you ever played games before, Xiaoxiang?"

Toyokawa Shoko shook her head: "I've never played it."

As a young lady, Toyokawa Shoko's life was full every day. In addition to basic studies, she had to practice piano, tea ceremony, illustration, calligraphy, etc. every day. In short, she basically had no time for entertainment.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't played it before." Kitahara Makoto came closer and said, "I'll teach you how to set up the controller. The game is very easy to get started. Xiaoxiang might be a gaming genius..."

Chapter 158 Xiaoxiang: The weak me is resurrected

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, do it again."

"I made a mistake again..."

"Relax your body, don't be so tense. You will be nervous at the beginning, but it will be fine once you get into the state."

"..."

Kitahara Makoto soon discovered that he was wrong.

I thought Xiaoxiang was a gaming genius, but after the game started I found out that she was actually a gaming idiot. She plays the piano so well, but she was so flustered holding a game controller.

After finally passing a small level, Kitahara Makoto couldn't help but sigh:

"I always thought Xiaoxiang was a beautiful genius girl who was a genius in every field. I didn't expect that I was wrong."

"I'm so sorry to disappoint Kitahara-san." Toyokawa Shoko blushed and couldn't help but scolded him, "There's no such thing as a perfect person in the world, right?"

Kitahara Makoto said casually:

"Student Xiaoxiang half an hour ago was a perfect person in my mind."

Toyokawa Shoko's pretty face flushed slightly, and she looked at the TV nervously:

"Get moving."

"..."

As the best two-player game in the world, "It Takes Two" is absolutely a well-deserved masterpiece for Shoko Toyokawa, who has never played games before. It easily makes her addicted to it and unable to extricate herself.

It’s a pity that I’m still a fool at games.

It took them more than three hours to finally complete the first chapter.

"ended."

Kitahara Makoto breathed a sigh of relief.

not easy.

It's not easy.

If you are not playing in pairs, but the old man who has just logged in, Shadow of the Golden Tree, you will definitely not be able to defeat the first BOSS even if you play until tomorrow morning!

"Take a break." Kitahara Makoto put down the controller and picked up the barley tea beside him. "Xiaoxiang, you've worked hard. Have something to drink first."

"Ah."

Toyokawa Shoko responded softly, picked up the juice with both hands, took a sip, and suddenly heard the sound of crisp wind chimes coming from outside the house.

Subconsciously, I turned my head to look outside the house, and what I saw was a clear blue sky with a kite floating far away in the horizon.

Toyokawa Shoko withdrew her gaze and looked at the young man beside her. A feeling of tranquility that was difficult to describe in words surged into her heart.
