A guide to survival in a heavy girl's world

This kind of slim-fitting shirt is very flattering for a slender person, and coupled with the top button he deliberately unbuttoned and the equally slim-fitting suit trousers on the bottom, although not revealing too much, it still gives people the feeling that everything is visible...

"For girls who like this type of person, this photo might be able to sell for money."

Nagasaki Suyo blushed and said:

"No, this photo can't be put in the album."

But...if I just leave it in my phone, it seems like a waste...

How about setting it as wallpaper?

……

"No... That's too weird!"

Nagasaki Suyo started rolling around on the bed holding the photo album.

"It's just a normal photo, why does it make people feel so obscene?"

No, this photo...must not be seen by anyone else!

For the sake of this world, it must be sealed.

After quietly saving the photo to a separate folder and completing the cloud backup, Nagasaki Suyo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, it's safe now."

After all, I should put the photo of him eating in the album.

……

…………

"Puhuhu...what am I doing?"

Feeling the thick and solid weight of the photo album in her arms, Nagasaki Suyo couldn't help but burst into a silly smile.

"You're so happy just because of a photo album. You look like an idiot."

At the moment it’s just an empty new photo album, so it’s a little too early to be happy.

Wait until this album is filled with photos and memories.

Wait until you need a second photo album to carry more happiness.

That's when she should smile the most!

"How about this gift, Nagasaki-san? Do you like it?"

“…I love it the most.”

Nagasaki Suyo once again hugged the photo album in her arms with a happy smile.

This way, even if she is left alone in this overly spacious home, she won't feel lonely anymore!

squeak--

Just as Nagasaki Suyo was about to fall asleep with the photo album in her arms, the unexpected sound of the door opening made her sit up instantly.

Then, when she walked out of the room, she suddenly revealed a very incredible expression:

"Eh?! Didn't you say you had work tonight?"

"It's already done! Haha... I'm so tired..."

As Nagasaki Motoyo's mother spoke, she fell headfirst onto the sofa without any grace.

As for Nagasaki Suyo, she habitually poured a glass of water for her mother first, and then continued to ask with curiosity:

"Isn't mother usually sleeping in the office at this time? Why did you come back today?"

"..."

Faced with her daughter's question, Nagasaki Motoyo's mother's expression suddenly froze.

Although she knew that her daughter asked this question only out of curiosity, the fact it reflected made her realize once again her incompetence.

But... fortunately, she is still trying to make compensation in her own style -

"It's to give this to you."

As she spoke, she opened the briefcase in her arms and took out a stack of documents.

"Su Shi."

"kindness?"

"From tomorrow on, you belong to Tetsuya-chan."

"………………What?"

Chapter 22: The responsibility of parents is to provide correct guidance

"Wait, Mom, what does this mean?!"

Overwhelmed, Nagasaki Suyo once again forgot her words and etiquette.

This statement was so bold that she couldn't control her tone and volume at all.

"What do you mean I belong to him?!"

"You'll know once you see it."

Nagasaki Motoyo's mother took the cup of water with a very calm tone.

“Basically everything is in this contract.”

"contract……"

Hearing this, Nagasaki Suyo quickly flipped through the documents her mother handed her...

…………ten minutes later…………

"This... is what you talked about with him this afternoon?"

"Yes."

Nagasaki Suyo's mother nodded.

"How is it? Is it a sure win business?"

"Although it looks like a contract between me and him, it actually has no binding force on me at all."

Nagasaki Suyo tilted her head in confusion.

"Apart from his various collaborations with the company, I don't see what I need to do for him."

"That's right, this contract is indeed not binding on you..."

As Nagasaki Suyo's mother spoke, she waved her hand for her to sit next to her. Then, she immediately took the contract with a mysterious look on her face and pointed to one of the items.

"But it also applies to Xiaozhe. Look here, this agreement means that all our cooperation is based on an employment relationship between you and him. Once he fires you or you voluntarily resign, the contract will be directly considered a breach of contract. So once you sign this contract, he can never leave you again."

"……Eh?"

Nagasaki Suyo was stunned at first, then her expression changed instantly:

"Wait, Mom, this is totally coercing him, right?!"

"This isn't coercion. After all, the help I gave him far exceeded the compensation he had to pay us."

Nagasaki Suyo's mother shook her head slightly.

"I know that you, Sushi, are very grateful to and value little Zheya, so you should also understand that with that child's serious personality, this kind of help with some restrictions would be easier for him to accept than our one-sided 'charity'. Moreover..."

Having said this, she suddenly looked at Nagasaki Suyo with a hint of amusement:

"Su Shi, don't you want to keep him firmly in your hands?"

"I……"

Nagasaki Suyo wanted to give a direct negative answer, but when she thought back to the photo album and how she had just been secretly obsessed with the photos, she couldn't easily say no...

This moment of hesitation naturally did not escape her mother's eyes.

"I knew it was."

She put her arm around Nagasaki Suyo's shoulders and said to her with a smile:

"It's perfectly normal for girls to feel possessive of the people they care about. Don't be so shy in front of your mother."

"..."

Speechless, Nagasaki Motoyo could only turn her head away with a stern face, and then muttered softly:

"Even so, I don't want to forcibly control him in this way..."

"Don't be so naive, Sushi."

Faced with her daughter's "childishness", Nagasaki Suyo's mother immediately said seriously:

"Although I can see that Xiaozhe does take good care of you, I can't call it special! And it's because of your dishonest words and actions that Xiaozhe has always believed that you keep in touch with Xiangzi because of him."

"Eh?"

Nagasaki Suyo was shocked when she heard this.

"How could that be? That's not why I approached him!"

"So, it's because you refused to tell him anything that this misunderstanding occurred."

Nagasaki Suyo's mother said:

"If you just sit there and wait, happiness will never find you. Even for your own sake, you have to take the initiative! And judging from today's celebration, you're not the only cute girl around that kid. If you don't take action, he might be taken advantage of by someone else without you knowing!"

"..."

The figure of Hoshino Ai suddenly appeared in Nagasaki Motoyo's mind.

That night, if everyone hadn't arrived in time, Chihaya Tetsu might have really been caught by her. Once things developed to that point, the extremely responsible Chihaya Tetsu would definitely give up everything to protect her, just as Hoshino Ai had hoped. By then, no matter how much he regretted it, it would probably be too late...

"Judging from your expression, you seem to understand the necessity of this contract."

Looking at the changeable expression on her daughter's face, Nagasaki Suyo's mother immediately showed a smile of relief that her daughter was teachable.

"Although I've only known Xiaozhe for less than a day, I can clearly sense that this kid is definitely the type who's used to being a 'guardian' and therefore has no sense of vigilance towards me. People's growth curves gradually slow down. Perhaps the girls around him now are still reserved and immature and won't do anything drastic to him, but in a few years, when they become more mature, no one can guarantee how things will develop."

"...I see."

Hearing her mother's earnest teachings, Nagasaki Suyo could only nod helplessly.

"I'll hand this contract over to him. However, I can't really do nothing. Maybe I can't help him with business matters, but at least there must be something I can do in other areas... Oh, right!"

Having said that, she suddenly remembered something.

"He's pretty terrible at housework. When he has his own shop, maybe I can help him with some chores..."

Nagasaki Suyo is still impressed by the way Chihaya Tetsuya fumbled in front of the bookshelf that day.

In her opinion, the simplest thing that she, who was still young and naive, could do for Chihaya Tetsuya was just this.

However, on the other hand, after hearing her daughter's words, Nagasaki Suyo's mother suddenly had an idea:

"Wow? I didn't expect you to be so clever! Sure, that's a great idea!"

Under her daughter's puzzled gaze, she pinched her chin and muttered:

"Using this method to gradually infiltrate the other person's daily life, closing the distance while also asserting sovereignty over other girls who try to approach... Yeah, yes, this 'secretary strategy' is definitely a killer move for a guy like Tetsuya! I support you, Sushi!"

After hearing this, Nagasaki Suyo's face turned red in an instant.

"W-What do you mean by 'secretary'?! I never thought of anything so obscene!"

"Huh? What's so obscene about the word secretary?"

Nagasaki Motoyo's mother was stunned by her daughter's intense reaction.

"It's just using your job to build relationships, which is normal no matter where you are... Ah, could it be that you're thinking of 'that kind of secretary', Sushi? No, as a mother, I won't allow you to do anything so bold right now!"

"What?! I didn't say I wanted to do that kind of thing with Chihaya Tetsuya!"

"Then why did you think the tactics I just mentioned were obscene?"

"Woo..."

Nagasaki Suyo grumbled for a long time before shouting in despair:
