Tokyo Soft Rice King

Kuroba Akira didn't know that this was indeed the sound that Akiko Takanashi recorded while she was comforting and relaxing herself in the studio. It was not the dubbing in the game or anime, so even the sound effects of the B movement were real, which is why it sounded so "real".

When she is doing dubbing work, she has to communicate with the client at any time. The most important thing is that her voice sounds clean and not turbid, and the lines are accurate enough, without any inclusion of her own emotions.

So this was the first time that she played a "private recording" full of "true feelings" to others, and Akiko Takanashi was extremely embarrassed.

At this moment, Kotori Mirai rubbed her mother's instep with her little feet, sending a signal for the next wave of attack.

That’s right…my daughter’s plan isn’t completely over yet.

Mirai Takanashi made an excuse to go to the bathroom and left her seat, giving her mother a chance to be alone with Akira Kuroba.

Then, while Kuroba Akira was still in a daze, Takanashi Akiko handed the tea to Kuroba Akira and said.

"Hei Yu-kun, thank you again for making so many trips for my child..."

"No, I had a great time too. You treated me to such expensive sushi... and even fed me... uh..."

"Just now, you were concentrating on listening to the audio I dubbed, so I thought of feeding you. In the past, when Mirai was busy playing games, I would also feed her... Sorry, Kuroba-kun, do you hate this?"

"I don't hate it, I just feel a little ashamed..."

He could feel at ease when being fed by the class monitor, but when being fed by Aunt Qiuzi, he felt like a mama's boy. Even the thick-skinned Hei Yuming felt a little embarrassed.

"I understand. It's because you feel like I'm treating you like a child. I know boys your age care about this kind of thing."

"That's right..."

Hei Yuming is mentally an adult, and things like being fed by his mother are so far away that he can no longer remember them.

"I'm sorry for being so presumptuous. Since you, Kuroba-kun, don't want to be treated as a child... then how about I treat you as my future father?"

"Kuha?"

Hei Yuming let out a strange cry in surprise, and stared at Aunt Qiuzi, both of them dumbfounded.

This is equivalent to proposing!

Takanashi Akiko was also embarrassed, but in order to allow her daughter's plan to go smoothly, she suppressed the heat on her face and the shame in her heart, lowered her head and waved her hands and said.

"Ah! Kuroba-kun, please don't misunderstand me. I don't really mean to ask you to marry an old lady like me. It's just... well, how should I put it..."

Hei Yuming had already understood what she meant. She was not proposing to him, but asking him to "play" the role of father.

"That's right, I feel like you're really mature, Kuroba-kun. When I talk to you, I sometimes forget you're actually my daughter's age..."

This is indeed true.

Akiko Takanashi really often overlooks the fact that Akira Kuroba is still a student.

When I told him my secrets, I already regarded him as a mature person whom I could rely on.

"Just now, I saw that you listened to my dubbing calmly and kept praising me. I was really touched... It seems that you are indeed a 'serious person'."

"Ah ha ha……"

Hei Yuming laughed dryly twice, feeling very guilty.

I'm sorry, Aunt Qiuzi, I betrayed your trust in me...

Actually, I do have dirty thoughts, but now I can understand Boss Cao's preferences...

Gu... a virgin wife... how can she be so astringent!

I have to find Ziyin tonight and ask her to wear black stockings and use soles to help me solve the problem, otherwise it will explode.

Takanashi Akiko said with a relieved smile.

"I think she really likes playing with you. Ever since her childhood friends stopped coming to visit us, I haven't seen her this happy in a long time..."

They were all genuine expressions of his feelings, so Hei Yuming didn't notice anything was wrong at all, but nodded and said.

"She meant that I should take care of her more, but being a father is really too exaggerated. I don't think she will regard me, her classmate, as her father in the future."

"Even though she won't actually call you dad, she already recognizes you in her heart, so what I mean is..."

Akiko Takanashi took out a key strung together with a thin string and pushed it in front of Kuroba Akira.

"This is the key to my house. You are always welcome to our house."

"this……!"

He actually gave himself the spare key of his house!

From this action, Kuroba Ming also understood that Aunt Akiko regarded him as "one of her own family members".

Letting him be a father means letting him take care of Kotori Yuu and make up for the fatherly love she lacks.

It doesn’t matter even if he is not a real father. After all, Akiko Takanashi herself is not a real mother, but she still gave her true maternal love.

Just when Kuroba Ming was still hesitating, Kotori Mirai, who had gone to the bathroom to wait for the next development, came back.

She saw that her mother had taken out the key props, so she said to Hei Yuming.

"Just take the key to my house tomorrow. My mom has to go out to work sometimes, and if I sleep in my room during the day, there's no one to open the door for you when you come."

With that said, it does make sense to accept it.

Then Mirai Kotori turned to her mother and said.

"By the way, Mom, Ming is actually planning to become a voice actor. Can you help him?"

"Hey? Kuroba-kun, do you want to be a voice actor?"

At this time, Akiko Takanashi's accident was purely acting.

I had already reviewed the lines with my daughter.

"It's not him. He's training a very talented voice actor in reserve, but he hasn't found a suitable voice actor agency yet. He was wondering if you could help, Mom..."

"Is that so? No problem. Kuroba-kun has helped our family so much, so helping him with this little favor is my responsibility."

Originally, Hei Yuming planned to wait until Ziyin's audition results came out, and if there was no suitable studio, he would ask Miss Akiko for help in recommending one.

After all, he himself was also very interested in Saotome Fuyumi, who designed the life of Akiko Takanashi.

Segmentation is indeed a great idea, allowing those with only rare talents to achieve excellence in one field and become successful.

Saotome Fuyumi is a great mentor and also the director of the firm. She definitely understands this industry much better than herself. If she can get her help, I believe Shion's career path will be smoother.

"Did you hear that? Ming, bring the goddess to see my mom later!"

Mirai Kotori winked at Kuroba Akira, pretending to be in cahoots with him again, with a smug smile on her face, as if to say, "I got you a chance!"

"Oh! Thank you so much. From now on, I'll have to trouble Aunt Qiuzi to introduce me."

"No problem, as I should... Then this key will be..."

Takanashi Akiko also smiled at Kuroba Akira, meaning, "Since I promised to help you, Kuroba-kun, then you should also agree to my request, right?"

"Okay, I understand. I'll take it then... But, aren't you worried that I might do something bad by giving me the key?"

The mother and daughter of Kotori looked at each other, both revealing expressions that could not help laughing.

Mirai Takanashi snatched the key from his hand and hung it directly around his neck and said.

"Ming, why did you suddenly become so stupid! Since I've already given it to you, do you think mom and I are stupid mother and daughter who can't even think of such a thing? I must have given it to you because I trusted you and thought nothing would go wrong!"

Hei Yuming held the key hanging around his neck and said with emotion.

"Thank you for your trust in me..."

Mirai Takanashi muttered to herself, "Actually, it has nothing to do with trust."

Rather, I hope you can have some bad thoughts and take down my mom as soon as possible to become my dad...

If he's my husband and father, it wouldn't be strange for him to have the house keys, right?

Now I am just giving you the key that originally belonged to you.

After completing the entire plan, Takanashi Mirai hooked her arm around Kuroba Akira's shoulders, poked his chest and said.

"Anyway, you're always welcome at the Kotori Yuu house. Just treat my house as an arcade and comic cafe. You don't even have to pay, so you have to come often tomorrow, at least one day a week, okay?"

"I know, I know."

Why do I feel like I'm being kept...

Does this count as starting to live off the Kotori Yu family?

Although he did not make a penny from the mother and daughter, he was given permission to enter and leave the house freely and use the things in the house.

I always feel like it’s more profitable than taking money?

In short, the mother-daughter conflict in the Kotori family was finally resolved extremely smoothly.

The reward was the key to Kotori Yu's house.

Hei Yuming didn't know that this was also a long-term trap specially prepared for him by Kotori and his daughter to assimilate him into one of their own.

Although we are not a family yet, as time goes by and we wait for each other more often, we will naturally get used to each other's presence and then regard each other as family.

Sooner or later, Kuroba Akira will become a member of the Kotori Yu family.

Chapter 219: Sure enough, home is more comfortable

After leaving the Yamato's house, Hei Yuming still felt a little dizzy.

It's like sweating in a sauna for a long time and then coming out with your head so hot it's smoking.

And there's also the feeling of having a couple of drinks in a pub, with two beauties, one big and one small, around you playing with you and urging you to drink, and then at the end saying to you, "Sir, come back and have fun next time."

Of course, this idea is a bit too rude. The mother and daughter of the Kotori Yu family are just hospitable. They are very different from those hostesses who greet everyone with a smile.

Moreover, the reason why this mother and daughter were so friendly to him and even treated him as one of their own was because he helped them resolve the conflicts in their family.

If not handled properly, the mother and daughter of the Takanashi family may very likely end up in a cold war situation like the mother and daughter of the Asato family, or even a complete break like the mother and daughter of the Murasakimiya family.

However, with the intervention of Kuroba Akira, after both sides sat down and talked everything out, the mother and daughter of the Takanashi family understood and tolerated each other, and the happy ending came with no one getting hurt.

This made Kuroba Ming the great benefactor of their family and he received their warm hospitality... Of course it was not just because of the favor, but Kuroba Ming did not know that he was being targeted by the mother and daughter because he knew the secret of the Kotori Yu family.

Hei Yuming just wanted to express a mentality of "reluctant to leave" or even "not wanting to leave".

Kotori Yuya...it's really nice, I will definitely come again.

Moreover, next time you come, you can come and go freely.

Hei Yuming took a look at the keys hanging around his neck and couldn't help laughing. It seemed that he had only hung the keys around his neck like this when he was very young because he was afraid of losing them. He no longer carried keys like this when he was a little older.

He took off the key from his neck and took out the key chain of Kobayashi's family from his pocket. The three keys on it were the keys to Kobayashi's yard gate, the house gate, and his own room door. Hei Yuming also hung the key of Kotori Yu's family on it.

If there is a system, it would be equivalent to having an extra save point.

If it weren't for the fact that after traveling through time, Kuroba Ming had already regarded the Kobayashi family as his own home, he might really have lived in the Kotori Yu family, becoming a stay-at-home useless guy with Mirai, and living off his mother every day.

If Grandma Kobayashi suddenly develops Alzheimer's disease and kicks herself out, there is a backup place to go back to besides Kuroba Akira's hometown, which is nowhere to be found, and she no longer has to worry about sleeping on the streets of Tokyo.

Although this kind of thing will not happen.

But at this time he still had to go back to his home, back to his room which, although empty, he regarded as his 'home'.

Also, there is a beautiful lady waiting for him to come back, who warms his bed every day.

In order to get rid of the echo of Aunt Qiuzi's evil voice in his head, Hei Yuming wanted to go home and borrow Ziyin's black silk charm wrestling.

After returning to Kobayashi's house, Kuroba Ming couldn't wait to open the door, and Ziyin, who had been waiting for him to come home, ran to the entrance when she heard the sound of the door opening, and broke into a beautiful smile full of joy.

"Mingjun! You're finally back!"

After just one whole day of not seeing each other, Ziyin missed Heiyuming so much that she wanted to rush over, hug him and give him a sweet kiss. She felt like she was newlyweds after a short separation. However, because Hongxiang was also in the living room, she didn't dare to be too direct... It wouldn't be too late to hug him after they returned to their room.

Last night, Ziyin's mind was filled with the single thought of "I want to see him, I want to see him, I want to see him". The thought kept running wildly in her mind, making her extremely alert and unable to sleep at all.

Fortunately, Hei Yuming was willing to answer her call in the end. When she thought that the person on the other end of the phone was her beloved, after relaxing comfortably... she did not sleep, but listened to Hei Yuming's breathing after he fell asleep all night.

Although they didn't care about such details when they slept together, when he was not around and they could only communicate through the phone, Ziyin became extremely nostalgic for Hei Yuming's voice, including his breathing.

As a result, the call lasted all night, causing Hongxiang's phone bill to be in arrears. It was a bit embarrassing when she returned the phone the next day. Fortunately, Sister Hong understood everything and didn't ask too many questions.

Sister Hong also followed Ziyin to welcome Hei Yuming home, with her hands on her hips, complaining while turning a blind eye.

"You still remember to come back? You have no conscience, little brother."

"Uh……"

"Hey, just kidding. Welcome back."
