Tokyo Soft Rice King

However, in order to prevent her daughter from giving it away foolishly, Amrie added some explanation.

"Of course, I'm not asking you to be selfless. After all, it's tragic to give without receiving anything in return. Love should be a two-way thing, so at the very least, the other person must be someone who can respond to you. Only then can you achieve a mutual understanding."

"Um……"

At this moment, the first person that came to Anri Hitomi's mind was Kuroba Ming.

Ming Jun, is he someone who can respond to me?

No... at least at this stage, she couldn't think of anyone who was more important than money in his heart, not even Ziyin Zizhigong who lived with him.

"But before you give your heart to someone, you have to carefully consider whether the other person is worthy of your heart. It's just like investing; it depends on your vision."

"However, unlike investing, where you can expect a return, emotional investment is very likely to be fruitless... So, you could say this is 'life's biggest gamble,' because you can't be sure if the other person truly values ​​you as much as you do, and whether they'll consider you more important than themselves..."

"I was lucky because I won the bet, but I know that many people lost miserably in this bet... So, Tong, I won't force you to deal with anyone anymore."

Amrita gave a bitter smile. She knew that she had been too stubborn in the past. She seemed to understand people's hearts very well, but in fact, she didn't even understand her own heart.

Because she is living a happier and happier life under her husband's care, she understands more clearly how hard this happiness is to come by.

"Mother...Mom..."

Hitomi Asato once again called Amritsu Ei "Mom", a more intimate name, because she really felt her mother's care for her at this moment.

This time, what Amritsu said was all from the heart. It was a mother's teaching to her daughter, as well as her concern.

"If you just wanted money, or wanted to know how to manipulate people, I could teach you that. But what you want now is sincerity, and that's something even I can't guarantee I'll get..."

“It is so precious, so valuable that once you get it, you become cautious, afraid of losing it again.”

"So now, I think it's better for you, Tong, to continue putting yourself first. That way, you won't have any weaknesses."

In the past, Asato E had her own set of principles for conduct, which has always been the style of the Asato family. Even for a period of time after giving birth to Asato Hitomi, she still put herself first, so she forced Asato Hitomi to inherit it.

At that time, she was actually stronger than she is now, very powerful.

However, now Amritsu has obviously become much "weaker". Her personality, attitude, way of doing things, etc. have all become "weak".

"But... Mom, you are living a happy life now, right?"

"Yeah... I'm very happy now, but I'm still not satisfied. I even want to make up for the mistakes I made in the past and repair my relationship with my daughter and mother-in-law... This is something I would never have thought of before."

"But it feels good, right?"

Asato smiled happily.

This was a warm and happy feeling that she had never felt in Anri's family before she got married.

"Yeah...it's warm."

"So you can actually smile like that, Mom."

"Because sincerity is such a terrifying thing, it can change a person beyond recognition, haha."

"Haha, Mom, you really have become a completely different person."

Anri Hitomi also smiled, but it was not a smile that was worn as a mask as usual, but a natural smile.

The mother-daughter relationship in the Anri family finally returned to zero from a negative value and moved slightly towards a positive value.

Having said everything that should be taught to her daughter, Amritsu will no longer interfere in her daughter's affairs as she did in the past. She also believes that the intelligent Tong will think for herself and make a choice after hearing what she has said.

After all, she knew that her daughter was best at "learning".

Then it was time to chat, Amriti asked her daughter.

"Come to think of it, Ruiqing reported to me that Tong, you seemed to have gone to 'that house' some time ago?"

"Well, I went there once, but I didn't go into the house."

An Litong deliberately emphasized this point because she still remembered that her mother had once told her not to enter that house without permission, especially after the owner of that house passed away. Now is a sensitive period and she should not act rashly.

"Is it because you missed her? But she still comes to our house occasionally to see you and Jing, right? Or is there another reason?"

"It's for some other reason. My friend lives there."

"Your friend...lives in that house?"

"Ah."

"I see……"

Amrita immediately understood a lot of things, and with a hint of intriguing meaning in her smile, she said to her daughter.

"Tong, from now on you don't have to worry about what I said to you before. You can go anytime you want, and you can come into the house."

"Is it okay? Won't it affect Daddy?"

An Litong has strictly abided by this agreement since childhood, not because she was afraid of her mother, but because she was afraid of affecting her father's career.

"It doesn't matter now. You're already that old, and your father has been keeping a low profile for a long time. He won't be affected by such a small matter anymore."

Moreover, that home was originally his home. Sooner or later, he would return to the place where he was born and raised to take back everything that belonged to him.

It can't be snatched away by an "outsider" who appears out of nowhere.

This is what Anrihui thought.

For Hitomi Asato, although she doesn't know the specific details, this is undoubtedly a huge "lifting of the ban".

Because this means that she can now break into the territory that originally belonged only to Ziyin of Zizhigong!

Of course, before fighting her, Anri Hitomi needs to think carefully and seriously...

Is Kuroba Ming a man who can be put first in his priority and is more important than himself?

Right now she is still in reserve, mainly because she has not figured out what kind of identity to give Hei Yuming, which will affect the kind of feelings that will arise later.

Just like her mother said, love is the purest emotion that sprouts most easily, and marriage is the fastest way, but she also wants to explore "whether there are other possibilities."

Because she was not sure whether Hei Yuming would return her love with sincerity after she gave it to him.

In fact, she knew that it was probably not the case.

The main reason is that Anri Hitomi feels that based on her understanding of Kuroba Akira, he will definitely be a playboy.

Because no woman can rank first in his heart, so as long as she is beautiful, talented, pleasant to get along with, and easy to have fun with, she may become the woman he likes.

He likes 'everyone' very much, and he is probably one of 'everyone'.

Ultimately, it's just not special enough.

After getting married and becoming a wife, of course she becomes special, but Hei Yuming is not a loyal man like his father. If he meets a woman who can connect with him in the future, he will most likely cheat.

Ultimately, it's just that Hitomi Asato doesn't have the confidence that she can rely on love to become the number one person in Kuroba Akira's heart.

If Murasakimiya Shion is overwhelmingly "love-brained", then Asato Hitomi is a complete "anti-love brain".

No, after all, women don't matter at all.

The most important thing in his mind is money...

To become more important than money?

how can that be!

No, it’s still wrong. Think carefully about what my mother said. Money is just a tool to measure value and exchange things. Comparing people with tools is inherently biased.

An Litong felt that his thinking was a little off, so he began to review it again.

Reverse your thinking. Instead of being against money, stand on the side of money?

In other words, you have to tie yourself to money...

So that's why. No wonder my mother's first idea was to "make the other person your own", and the specific method was to buy the other person with money.

But the problem is that I don't have enough capital to buy the other person's life. Although I don't know how much my dowry is, it should still be difficult to buy a wise ruler in one go.

In fact, Mingjun is not in deep debt crisis, so now is not the right time to enter the market.

In other words, you have to wait for the right opportunity and then "buy shares" at the right time.

In this way, whenever he thinks of money in the future, he will definitely think of himself.

In this way, I became a part of his life.

If I were to give my heart to him at this point, he would think, "She has given him so much money and is so nice to me, how can I be embarrassed?"

Then even under the guilt, you will start to give back more.

With a unique way of thinking, Anri Hitomi came up with a more "worldly" relationship that transcends love.

That is, creditors and debtors.

The strongest relationship in the world is the one linked by money.

I will make you owe me a lifetime debt that you will never be able to repay until you die. Then you will think of me all the time and even dream about me.

Although dreams like this are mostly nightmares.

But, this is also okay.

Anyway, in this way, I will become an unforgettable existence engraved in your memory, and leave a mark in your heart that can never be erased no matter what... Isn't this kind of longing for you the purest concern?

Then, I will never again feel frustrated because I can't be noticed by you.

Great...trouble solved.

That night, Anri Hitomi slept soundly.

Because at this moment, she finally felt at ease.

She also knew very well what she should do next.

That is to wait for the most appropriate time to invest, then seize this opportunity to invest your own dowry, and then make the "interest from favors" come into play.

My wise lord, I will make you owe me your whole life.

Chapter 213: Akiko Kotori is the maternal voice actor

At eight o'clock on Saturday morning, Hei Yuming opened his eyes.

Perhaps because he felt uneasy sleeping in an unfamiliar room, he woke up after only about four hours of sleep.

His head still hurt a little, a mild aftereffect of staying up all night. Although he wanted to take a nap, he still got up, rubbing his eyes.

Because now I have to get up and start my strategy to conquer Aunt Qiuzi.

This is a critical moment.

This is also the important information about her mother's weakness that Takanashi Mirai provided last night.

……

"My mom would occasionally do recording work at home on weekends, and she definitely didn't want anyone to know about it."

"Even though she might think I haven't discovered it yet, we live together. How could I not have noticed it..."

"To keep it a secret from me, Mom would usually work while I was asleep. However, I would often pretend to be asleep and play games until late at night. So, she had actually discovered it a long time ago. It would just be embarrassing to reveal it, so she kept pretending not to know."

"I should still be asleep tomorrow morning, so Mom should be doing her dubbing work as usual. If you really intend to... uh, threaten my mom, you can wake up earlier and expose her in person."

"In order to get you to help keep it a secret, Mom will probably tell you some truths that she can't tell me... Of course, the premise of all this is that she can't know that you are already on my side."

……

As for what Aunt Akiko was doing as dubbing, Mirai Totoro did not tell him, but just looked shy and unable to speak.

The description should be a work with color.

Voice actors are also divided into two categories: inner and outer voice actors. The voice actors who dub for late-night anime and adult dramas are inner voice actors.

However, generally these voice actors really only provide voices, they won’t show their faces, won’t use their real names, and won’t be exposed…

Hmm? I feel like Ziyin might be more suitable for this path?

Thinking of Ziyin's murmurs coming from the phone last night, Hei Yuming suddenly felt that this evil way might really be suitable for Ziyin.

But from a man's perspective, I don't really want her indecent voice to be heard by others.

Besides, voice actors in Satakai probably don’t make much money, right?

Having said that, what Kuroba Akira couldn't quite understand was that Akiko Takanashi was already a top-tier national voice actor, so was there any need for her to take on such an "undignified job"?

In short, in order to find out what was going on, Hei Yuming tiptoed, opened the door and walked out of the guest room.
