Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

"Of course not, but the mark you left on my neck is very conspicuous." Sawayama Haruno coughed lightly.

He noticed it when he was washing up in the morning, but luckily he brought clothes with a high neckline, which could cover it a little. It would be difficult to see without looking closely.

But just like Ayano Yui said, it doesn't matter if it's discovered, I can just think of another way.

Sawayama Haruno didn't intend to keep it a secret from his family. Although his behavior was somewhat despicable, he would still try his best to shoulder his responsibilities.

There were sounds of approaching footsteps outside, and soon they stopped not far from the rooms of Sawayama Haruno and Ayano Yui.

Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno felt that it was about time to go out and say hello, so he took the initiative to open the door.

Standing in the aisle was a middle-aged woman, about forty years old. Judging from her appearance, she was only three-quarters similar to Ayano. It seemed that time had not left too many traces on her face. She looked like a mature woman in her thirties.

The person in front of me is Ayano Yui's mother, Ayano Mizuha.

There is also a more interesting thing to say. The Sawayama family and the Ayano family have been good friends for generations. Logically, Haruno's father should have been the first to know Ayano Yui's father, but Sennan City is a small place after all. When Ayano Mizuha was young, she and Sawayama Ako were classmates in the same school, and the two had a close relationship.

Such a close relationship also determines the attitudes of the two families towards their children.

Seeing Sawayama Haruno, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, appear, Ayano Mizuha also showed a surprised expression on her face.

"Hey, little Haruno, come and give your aunt a hug."

Ayano Mizuha pretended to go forward and hug Sawayama Haruno, which frightened the latter so much that he quickly took a step back without making a sound.

Ayano Yui quickly inserted herself between the two of them and asked curiously, "Mom, why did you come back so soon? Didn't you say that you would have to wait until the evening to get a car?"

"You"

Ayano Mizuha rolled her eyes at her helplessly.

"You didn't tell me earlier that Haruno was coming to stay at our house. You only told me and your dad last night." Ayano Mizuha complained for a few words, and then explained, "We took a taxi back. After all, Haruno hasn't been to our house for a long time. Auntie has to treat him well tonight."

"You're so welcome, Aunt Ruiye."

Sawayama Haruno smiled at the side.

After so many years, the other party still treats her like a child. But that's also true. Perhaps in the eyes of all elders, the younger generations still look like children. Meiming Zeshan Haruno looks to be around twenty years old, a mature and reliable adult, but Ayano Mizuha still thinks that the other party is a child who has to be taken care of.

"I sent Ayano's father to the market to buy vegetables."

Ayano Mizuha said proudly: "Let's have a meal at home tonight. Haruno is twenty years old now, right?"

"It will take about a month." Sawayama Haruno nodded slightly.

His birthday is coming soon, probably at the end of January next year. When he turns 20, he will be able to legally buy alcohol in convenience stores.

Well, even though I'm not even 20 yet, I bought it secretly.

"It's only about a month. It's okay."

Ayano Mizuha said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you have a month. Let's try the sake I brewed some time ago in the evening."

Like Sawayama Haruno, she has the same hobby of brewing wine, but unlike Sawayama Haruno who makes cocktails and sweet wine, she usually makes sake or rice wine.

Ayano Mizuha is a relatively open-minded parent, which can be seen from the way she educates Ayano Yui. After all, Ayano Yui is also a very lively and bold person.

Although Ayano Mizuha is an elder, she doesn't think there is anything wrong with her behavior of letting Haruno drink. After all, in her opinion, it is nothing to take a month to reach the age of 20 when it is legal to drink. Such a personality is a bit like a member of the wives' group in Detective Conan, which makes people feel helpless but difficult to refute.

"I understand. Let's drink a little then." Sawayama Haruno agreed.

Although he seldom drinks sake, based on his alcohol tolerance and his body strengthened by the system, he shouldn't get drunk.

In addition, since we haven't seen each other for so many years, it would be difficult for me to refuse the other party's invitation. What's more, I have developed a relationship with Ayano Yui that goes beyond family ties.

Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno subconsciously glanced at the other person, but found that Ayano Yui was staring at her mother with some resentment.

"It's not possible even if there's still a month left. Mom is obviously the elder, how can she persuade the younger generation to drink?" Ayano Yui frowned.

Are you kidding? If Sawayama Haruno is drunk, how can she crawl over to sleep with me at night?

Although there will be some unspoken restrictions here after the parents return home, wouldn't it be more interesting with restrictions?

At worst, you can just cover your mouth and try not to make any strange noises.

"Stop it."

Ayano Mizuha ignored Ayano Yui's words. She took a few steps forward and rubbed Sawayama Haruno's hair vigorously, and said with emotion: "You have grown so tall now. In the past, I had to bend down to touch your head. By the way, Haruno has started working now, right?"

"Well, I wrote some novels, just for fun," Sawayama Haruno said modestly, "After all, I have to balance my studies, and there are a lot of other things to do besides that."

"so good."

Ayano Mizuha felt somewhat relieved.

"You have been so sensible since you were little. I wish you were my child. Xiao Wei is so annoying."

"I'm not that irritating, am I?" Ayano Yui protested.

She didn't do anything like running away from home, so why would she say she was irritating? ?

Compared to a certain unruly girl, I can be considered to be very obedient to my family, okay? And you guys obviously agreed that I should go to university in Tokyo. So it seems that I am even more obedient than Haruno back then, because he was forced to go to Tokyo to study.

"Okay, you are very obedient."

Ayano Mizuha ignored her daughter's complaints and pulled Sawayama Haruno to the living room to reminisce about the past.

After not seeing each other for a year or two, she became more and more satisfied with the child of the Zeyama family. It was a pity that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of "getting closer" to Ayano Yui, and now it seemed that he had another girlfriend, which made Ayano Mizuha feel some unspeakable regret.

According to the tradition of friendship between the Sawayama family and the Ayano family, and the fact that Sawayama Ako and I were childhood classmates, if Sawayama Haruno could really be together with Ayano Yui and become closer relatives, it would be a good thing for both families.

Rather than entrusting her daughter to a man she didn't know, it would be better to entrust her to Sawayama Haruno, who had watched her grow up. Besides, they were both in Tokyo now and could take care of each other.

What a pity, what a pity

Chapter 355 If we can team up

In the evening, he had dinner with the Ayano family. After chatting with the elders for a while, Sawayama Haruno quickly found an excuse to go back to his room to start working, and Ayano Yui naturally followed him.

The relationship between the two had just changed, and at this moment she was still clinging to Sawayama Haruno. Even if she was lying in bed doing nothing but eating lollipops, she could stare at Haruno at work for a whole day.

It was fine during the day, but at night, Ayano Yui completely refused to hide her clinginess. Even though her parents slept on the same floor as them, she would still cling to Sawayama Haruno and get close to him. There were even several times when she almost couldn't cover her mouth and made noises.

Her intimate attitude towards Haruno certainly aroused Ayano Mizuha's suspicion, but considering that her daughter had liked to stick to him since she was a child, and she and her husband had no objection, she stopped dwelling on the matter.

Just like that, a week passed in a flash, and the Miyazawa family had already returned to Tokyo, leaving only Mana and Maki in Osaka.

During this period, Sawayama Haruno also went out normally, but he no longer accompanied the other girls to play around. Instead, Ayano Yui would go shopping with Maki and the others from time to time, as if she was trying to build a good relationship for her future life.

As the novel progressed, time passed quickly and quietly. Soon it was the day agreed to return to Tokyo. The driving school that Suguha Ezaki had enrolled in was also approaching the exam time. Considering that everyone had things to do, Sawayama Haruno decided to go back a day earlier.

At the Sennan City Railway Station, Ayako Sawayama looked at her future daughters-in-law standing in a row in front of her, feeling very reluctant to leave.

"You've only been back for a few days, why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

She turned her gaze to Zeshan Haruno next to her and complained, "Anyway, school hasn't started for you yet, has it?"

"Suguha has to go back for the exam, there's nothing I can do about it." Sawayama Haruno smiled helplessly, and then added, "And Maki's mother urged her to go back to the hospital for a checkup as soon as possible. We will take leave and come back next spring."

He was not talking nonsense. It was indeed time for Maki to go back for a check-up. Besides, the matter of buying a house could not be postponed any longer. Morikawa Riho had sent him messages many times asking when he would return to Tokyo.

Seeing how seriously Sawayama Haruno spoke, Sawayama Ako had no choice but to send them to the station despite being reluctant.

After saying goodbye to each other, Sawayama Haruno took the initiative to help carry the luggage of several people and quickly entered the station according to the information of the corresponding train schedule. Miyazawa Maki, who was standing next to him, seemed to be still sleepy and followed closely behind.

"Are you sleepy?"

Seeing that Miyazawa Maki was almost unable to open her eyes, Miyazawa Mana next to her couldn't help but said with concern: "Hold on for a while, you can sleep when you get on the bus."

"Um"

Miyazawa Maki was listless and didn't even want to show any displeasure to the other party. She just felt that her whole body was weak. There was nothing she could do because she didn't sleep well last night and had a rather special dream for the first time in a long time.

Maybe it was because she had to register her marriage formally after returning to Tokyo, but Miyazawa Maki suddenly felt a little nervous these past two days. Although she didn't know what she was nervous about, she just felt a sense of uncertainty in her heart.

I want to act cute with Zeshan Haruno, but he has been busy writing novels these days, and I am embarrassed to disturb him.

Thinking of this, Miyazawa Maki bit her lip lightly, and suddenly felt a little inexplicably aggrieved.

Such symptoms will occur after pregnancy, and it is easy to become more emotional. Miyazawa Maki is actually very good. After all, she still understands that Haruno's work is not easy. It's just that the psychological problems need more attention.

Fortunately, Ezaki Suguha, who was walking nearby, was the first to notice it thanks to his extraordinary talent.

"Haruno, let me help you."

She suddenly said something to Sawayama Haruno in front of her. The latter turned around in confusion, but the luggage in his hand was snatched away by Ezaki Suguha.

"Go check on Maki. She seems a little tired." Ezaki Suguha whispered.

"tired?"

Hearing Ezaki Suguha's reminder, Sawayama Haruno subconsciously looked towards the back of the team. Ayano Yui was walking at the back, biting a lollipop with a nonchalant expression on her face, and in front of her were the Miyazawa twins. Mana followed Maki closely, as if she was worried that something might happen to her because she was sleepy.

There seems to be something wrong?

Sawayama Haruno keenly noticed that Maki seemed to be in a depressed mood. After hesitating for a moment, he slowed down his pace.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

While asking Maki, he cast a grateful look at Mana who quickened her pace to make way.

But when she heard her boyfriend's concern, Maki Miyazawa was not as happy as she had imagined.

She reached out and grabbed Zeshan Haruno's sleeve, and said a little aggrievedly: "I don't know, I'm just very tired."

"Hold on a little longer, we'll be at the station entrance soon." Sawayama Haruno patiently consoled.

The Shinkansen tickets they booked happened to have Sennan City as the departure station, so they didn't need to wait too long in the station. They could just go downstairs and find the train after checking their tickets.

Considering that he was bringing such a shy girl back with him, Sawayama Haruno specially booked a more expensive type of ticket this time. After getting on the train, he could adjust the chair back 45 degrees, which was just right for a nap.

"Um"

Miyazawa Maki responded in a soft voice.

She took the initiative to extend her hand in front of Sawayama Haruno, who immediately understood and took it.

Ayano Yui, who was walking behind, was suddenly struck by lightning. Damn it, why didn’t she think of this trick? She also wanted to hold her brother’s other hand.

She stared at the two people's crossed fingers, feeling extremely envious. However, they had already reached the down elevator, and even though she felt unwilling, she couldn't say anything more. After they came out of the elevator, Sawayama Haruno took Miyazawa Maki and led everyone to the corresponding carriage of the train.

To get back to Tokyo from Osaka, you only need to take the Tokaido Shinkansen, which doesn't take too long. The main purpose of this Shinkansen is to connect the two important regions of Kansai and Kanto. Moreover, the speed of the island country's Shinkansen is not slow at all. When Sawayama Haruno came back, he just took a nap on the train and almost arrived.

But he definitely couldn't sleep right now, he had to find a way to coax Miyazawa Maki who was in a depressed mood.

The older twin sister was arranged to sit with Ayano Yui, while Ezaki Suguha sat in a seat where only she was seated.

Ayano Yui originally thought that the return journey would be a bit boring, but unexpectedly, after sitting down, Miyazawa Mana quickly started chatting with her.

The other party pretended to be intentional and asked suddenly: "Haruno has been staying at your house these days, how is your progress?"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Ayano Yui immediately glanced at her.

"That's all," Ayano Yui said with a dry lip, "After what happened at the movie last time, we did get closer, but he's been busy with work since then. I guess it's because of my parents that he doesn't want to get any closer to me."

"Really? I thought you guys would be sticking together these days, but it seems I was worrying too much." Miyazawa Mana said softly.

She did not forget what she had said to Ayano Yui. Although she helped Ayano Yui on the night of the movie, that was based on the premise of satisfying her own fetish.

Previously in Tokyo, Miyazawa Mana had told Ayano Yui that the two of them would be competitors. Although everyone's current situation seems to be extremely peaceful, Haruno's time is limited after all. Even if she can't get the position of the main wife, she will want to spend more time with her.

Miyazawa Mana herself is no exception. She hopes that Haruno can spend more time with her. If we consider the relationship between the three people from this perspective, it is actually a very strange relationship between peace and dispute.

Obviously, everyone can be considered half a member of the Zeshan family, but there are still different disagreements over time arrangements. This makes people feel a little confused.

"Are you worried about this kind of thing?"

Ayano Yui seemed to have guessed what Miyazawa Mana was thinking, and she smiled disdainfully.

"Why worry about such a thing? We can be together anyway, right? Just like Maki and Suguha."

When she spoke the latter part, Ayano Yui deliberately lowered her voice, as if to prevent others from hearing her.

Her actions were actually somewhat unnecessary, because after getting on the bus, Suguha Ezaki put on headphones and closed her eyes to rest, while Haruno Sawayama was whispering with Maki Miyazawa at the moment and had no time to notice the two girls behind him.

"Anyway, you seem to be enjoying it, and Maki and Suguha have had this experience several times."

Ayano Yui paused and said indifferently: "I personally think I can accept it. If you really want everyone to come together, it's not impossible. It's better to say that this is the only way to satisfy Haruno, right?"

"Satisfied?"

Miyazawa Mana pursed her lips and showed a thoughtful expression.
