Lucifer rolled his eyes and said, "When did you become so sentimental?"
"I've always been very emotional, especially towards the men I like."
Beelzebub had imagined being flirted with by Bai Yu during their date, and that she might be unintentionally charmed by a phrase she thought was a love quote. But she never expected that what would make her heart race and make her feel charmed would be such a simple "thank you."
In that word of thanks, she could feel Bai Yu's purest gratitude and recognition. Crucially, she had never hidden her interest and affection for Bai Yu from him. This thank you, besides what had been mentioned before, was most importantly...
She could feel it, she could vaguely sense that her feelings had been reciprocated. It didn't need to be grand or dramatic, it didn't need vows of eternal love, it was just like life, plain and simple, but unexpectedly, a surprise would appear from nowhere.
Perhaps it's a gift, perhaps it's a bouquet of roses from a lover, perhaps... just like that, a simple word seems to give Beelzebub a feeling more excited than any confession.
When Bai Yu said those words, the gratitude and gentleness in his eyes were like a warm sun shining into his heart, warm like the sun, like a bowl of hot soup noodles when he was sick, like a gentle breeze that awakened him.
A date? Still necessary, but this time... a confession? A frank expression of feelings? No need. Our hearts have already faced each other directly, and faced this question directly.
Yuko Ichihara, propping her chin on her hand, said, "Hey, that smile of yours... you seem incredibly happy..."
"I'm just so happy. There's a... kind of... indescribable feeling. I feel like I've suddenly felt at ease and understand Zdelada."
"What happened to Zdelada this time?"
"Go ask her. But I'm really curious, why didn't Robin come? Logically, she could have just found a closet and come over for dinner, so why haven't I seen her?"
"Isn't that normal? Like... well, like Mai Shiranui, look at her, she can't come if she has something to do, what's there to be curious about?"
Just as Mai Shiranui was about to open the lid of the sake bottle, she paused for a moment, turned her head, and said, "Oh, right, I suddenly thought of a question."
"What's the matter?"
"Do you know if anyone else has ever come to our world besides my grandfather and me? After all, I haven't been here for so long, have you really not invited anyone else?"
"We want to know too!" xn (

Chapter 304 A Happy Mai Shiranui, A Headache for Tsunade (Please Subscribe~)
Mai Shiranui was taken aback by these words. What was so special about her? She hadn't been to the shop in so long, nor had she invited anyone else over. She was just an ordinary person. How strange!
However, since she didn't know, she decided not to think about it too much and focus on the food in front of her. Mai Shiranui opened the sake bottle and was stunned for a moment before saying, "It smells so good... such a fragrant sake! Such a rich floral aroma, and a subtle sweetness."
Shiranui Hanzo also said with some surprise, "Indeed, I have never seen such fragrant wine before. It looks like this meal will be quite unforgettable."
"Yes! Grandfather, let me pour you some wine!"
"Hmm...okay, Xiao Wu, you eat yours. I can take care of the rest myself. Don't worry about anything. You've been busy taking care of the dojo lately, and you've been waiting for a long time. Eat up."
"it is good!"
After pouring a glass of wine for Hanzo Shiranui, Mai Shiranui poured one for herself. Mai Shiranui was really overwhelmed by the choices; where should she start eating?
Mai Shiranui doesn't have any dietary restrictions, but she prefers to eat light and sweet foods. However, this doesn't mean she doesn't eat strong-flavored dishes. On the contrary, strong-flavored dishes are always particularly appetizing.
Mai Shiranui picked up a spicy squid tentacle. It was a stir-fried dish, and just by smelling it, you could tell that the spicy squid was truly delicious. It wasn't just the aroma of cilantro and chili peppers, but also the unique fragrance of the squid mixed together.
Fragrant, bouncy, and slightly crispy—it's that crispness that makes the already crunchy and chewy squid even more delicious, while the spicy flavor doesn't completely mask the squid's natural aroma.
Fragrant and hot are always the best partners for spiciness. If you add crispy and chewy squid that is coated with the spicy flavor and a little bit of oil, it can be said to be exceptionally good with rice.
The Sichuan peppercorn chicken is numbing, savory, and tender, with a refreshing and delicious flavor. The Sichuan peppercorn chicken is crispy, chewy, and leaves a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth. The hawthorn spare ribs are sweet and sour, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and delicious. The Longjing shrimp is a familiar and refreshing dish. And the spinach with nuts, although it looks ordinary, is refreshing and eye-catching.
Mai Shiranui hadn't even had a sip of soup yet, but with just these few dishes, she felt she could eat several bowls of rice. At the same time, all her previous worries were gone.
Forget about being mindful of your figure and eating a light diet, it's all too delicious right now. Every bite of the food is so good I could eat a bowl of rice with it. I was already a little hungry, and now with all this delicious food, it's perfect with both drinks and rice. Who cares about anything else? A ninja isn't someone who can tolerate everything!
Shiranui Hanzo was also very shocked. After taking a bite of the dish, he knew that the person who made the dish was incredibly skilled. This dish was the most delicious he had ever eaten, and it was truly amazing.
Instead of eating first, Shiranui Hanzo chose to try the sake, and the aroma of the sake instantly captivated his taste buds; the sake was truly amazing.
Seeing Mai Shiranui enjoying her meal so much, Hanzo Shiranui chuckled softly. This restaurant is great, very good indeed...
Lucifer chuckled and said, "Sure enough, seeing someone enjoying their meal always inexplicably lifts my spirits."
"This must be what they mean by good moods being contagious. And my husband's cooking is absolutely delicious; I never get tired of it."
"There are so many kinds of dishes. Not to mention what we've eaten so far, what we even know is just the tip of the iceberg. Once we've tasted them all, we'll want to eat other dishes we've eaten before. The first person to turn food into a dish is definitely someone who deserves to be remembered."
"Indeed..."
Yuko Ichihara breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What are Yukari and the others doing? Why haven't they come over yet? I wonder if they're having another banquet today? I'm really impressed with them. They can have a banquet just by cooking a pot of tofu, adding some vegetables, grilling some fish, and adding some sashimi. They're so leisurely."
"That's what they say, but most of them are usually very free, extremely, extremely free. If you're talking about being busy, it's probably the Servants and Shikigami who are busy."
"Speaking of which, I really think Ran and Sakuya have it tough, but Eirin is the most troublesome. Yukari is just lazy and cunning, Remi is a bit willful, but she's changed a bit now. But Kaguya... sigh..."
"So Eirin really has it tough. She's putting all her focus on Kaguya. To explain it in Eirin's mind... Kaguya has a husband who spoils her; Gensokyo is like a retirement home for her, and Mokou is too lazy to fight her. So she just lets Kaguya be. As long as it's not too embarrassing, she can do whatever she wants."
Tsunade said with a hint of helplessness, "To be honest, most of the time it's really hard to believe that Kaguya was once the Moon Princess. She doesn't seem like it at all."
"So... by the way, Tsunade, there's something I suddenly remembered that I wanted to ask you."
"Ah? What's the matter?"
"Tell me, if Grandma Mito hands over the Nine-Tails, do you still plan to keep the time flow at its normal rate, or will you synchronize it?"
Tsunade pursed her lips and said, "Well... let's not adjust it. This way, it'll be more convenient if Nawaki comes to notify us if anything happens. Even if there's a life-or-death crisis, we still have several months until our wedding. So, let's keep the time flow at the normal rate."
"That's true, but do you think there will be another one?"
"Maybe... Konan and the others also asked me to keep an eye on the Sand Villages. Sigh... What if a real war breaks out... I definitely don't want to go back to fight..."
"Then don't go. Find one of your sisters to go and settle things for you. Just let it all go in one go."
"But... ugh... so annoying! I'm not going to think about these things anymore, I'll deal with them when they happen! But no matter how I think about it, it's still more convenient to have different timings. Once Nawaki has settled down, we can consider going completely in sync."
"Things will work themselves out in the end. We'll see when the time comes. Don't worry too much."
"Um...."

Chapter 305 Azazel is about to cry, and Grefia is about to set family rules (Please subscribe~)
Little Sadie and Domino's dishes are also ready to be reported soon: shredded pork with garlic sauce that combines sour, sweet, spicy and salty flavors, practically perfect for eating with rice; spicy and delicious beer duck; dry-fried green beans that are dry, fragrant and spicy; and cold beef salad that Domino ordered as an extra appetizer.
None of the dishes were particularly exquisite, but each one shared two common characteristics: they were not only good with drinks but also with rice, not to mention the shredded pork with garlic sauce.
It's a spicy and delicious beer duck. The spicy flavor complements the tender and flavorful duck, which is dripping with broth. It's not only fresh and delicious, spicy and appetizing, but also has a subtle beer aroma.
Picking up a piece of meat and skin, the tender duck meat, dripping with broth, was so tempting that it made my mouth water. As for the cold beef salad, there was nothing special to say about it.
Beef is thick, fragrant, juicy, and chewy – all these words can be found in beef head. Cold-dressed beef doesn't need many other ingredients, but it's already a powerful weapon against alcohol and food. A plate of cold-dressed beef and a plate of peanuts are enough for two grown men to drink and chat all night.
Of course, three meat dishes also need vegetable dishes. There are many dishes that can be served with alcohol or rice, but dry-fried green beans should not be skipped. Dry-frying itself makes the green beans crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The minced meat and various ingredients are also mostly dry ingredients.
These ingredients combined create an extraordinary flavor: dry and fragrant, a quality rarely seen in most dishes. It's dry, fragrant, spicy, and refreshing, perfect for pairing with drinks and stimulating the appetite. It's a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, and even vegetarian dishes can be just as satisfying as meat dishes.
You can tell this by looking at Domino and Little Sadie; the two of them are practically glued to their chopsticks, taking a bite while their eyes are fixed on other dishes.
Azazel smacked his lips and said, "They're eating so deliciously... It's a pity they're already full, otherwise I really would like to try every dish."
Lucifer said irritably, "There's plenty of time in the future, and didn't you say you were going to ask questions? Now that your husband is done with his work, you're not going to ask anymore."
"Yes, yes, yes! I was just watching them eat! I...I..."
Bai Yu smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous. If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer them."
"Mmm-hmm! Which...which question was it again? The second one! Yes, yes, the second question! It's...wait, what?! Another customer?! No way! I've finally gotten to the point where I'm about to start!"
Seeing Azazel's wailing, even Grefia couldn't help but subtly raise the corners of her mouth. The next moment, a cheerful voice said, "Oh dear, oh dear, it seems you arrived just in time."
Lucifer and the others naturally recognized who had said those words. Sure enough, the next moment, Yukari Yakumo and the others walked in. The group was surprisingly complete, including Kaguya and the others.
"Lucy-neechan! Yuko-neechan! Tsunade-neechan! Grayfia-neechan... and this one... must be Azazel-neechan? Good evening!"
Kaguya made many friends in Gensokyo and was the group's darling. She played around Gensokyo every day, and her personality became more lively. Lucifer smiled and said, "Kaguya, good evening! How have you been lately?"
Kaguya, holding Fujiwara no Mokou's hand, said with a smile, "It's great! Everyone is so nice to me. I'm happy every day. And I've made so many new friends, and... and so many more. In short, it's great!"
"That's good. You've come at the right time. Azazel was just about to give my husband an exclusive interview."
"Just in time... Oh my! Grayfia, looking at you like this, you really do look a lot like Sakuya."
Sakuya Izayoi blinked as she looked at Grayfia in her maid outfit. It really felt like looking in a mirror. Although Grayfia's figure and appearance were different from hers, there was a strange sense that they were very similar.
“Greefia, she suits you very well.”
"Thank you. Also, Sakuya, there's something I need to discuss with you."
"what?"
Gurefia stood up, placing her hands naturally on her lower abdomen, adopting the demeanor of a typical well-bred young lady, and said, "Sakuya, I'm planning to have you draft a set of family rules and regulations before the next family meeting. What do you think?"
Those watching the spectacle, including Yukari Yakumo, felt a jolt of alarm. This was bad! This was bad! Sakuya Izayoi was known as the perfect maid, and now there was Grayfia too! Good heavens! Was this some kind of forced labor camp for lazy bums?!
Sakuya Izayoi tilted her head and nodded, saying, "That's a great suggestion. Let's set the number at a low one for now, and we can discuss it in more detail over dinner. Actually, I've been planning this since after the proposal, but I'm missing a zero that we can work on together..."
"Okay, also, Purple..."
Yukari Yakumo's eyes lit up as she said, "What? You want me to participate in the planning too?! I knew Grayfia, you're absolutely super reliable..."
"No, the hair is sticking up. Please fix it as soon as possible."
"Um...we...we overslept, due to some factors, some factors..."
Despite saying that, Yukari Yakumo quickly straightened her long hair. Grefia nodded and said, "Alright, Azazel, you can ask me any questions you have, but watch your temper."
"Uh... I... I know... But the second one... Ah! This is so unfair! Why are there more people here?!"
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Gion?! Nojiko?!" x2
Gion nodded and said, "Yeah, we felt it wasn't good to come too early, and we were busy at the orange grove earlier. What's up? This is the Azazel you mentioned before... Eh? Grayfia, your outfit..."
Lucifer laughed and said, "Alright, alright, let's talk about it later. You guys find a place to sit down first. This girl is going to cry if we don't get anything out of her soon."
"Huh? What's going on? Never mind... Nojiko, let's find a seat first."
"Okay! Hmm... I'm exhausted today. I didn't even have time to take a proper shower, I just took a quick cold shower and came over."
"Then you can go to my room to shower later. Let's not go back today. I just wanted to ask Tina some questions. We'll talk about whether to go back or not tomorrow."
"it is good!"

Chapter 306 Bai Yu's Answer, the Excited Crowd (Please Subscribe~)
After Momousagi and the others found a place to sit down, they didn't rush to order food. Instead, they chose to observe for a while. Azazel was about to speak when he looked at the door, opened his mouth again, and then immediately turned his head to look at the door.
"Hey, just ask what you want to ask. They'll be here in a while. It'll either Booz or Hancock. Don't worry about it."
"Oh... well... the second question, um... how do you view feelings, or rather, how do you view love, in general?"
"Beautiful!"
This was a sentence that Yakumo Yukari and the others shouted in unison in their hearts. Momousagi and the others also looked at Shiraha with some curiosity. Shiraha paused for a moment and then smiled and said, "As expected, it's a different kind of question from Lux."
Can this question be answered?
"There's nothing wrong with that. How to view love is not a difficult question to answer. To put it bluntly, love is about gaining in loss, learning to lose in gain, and finding lasting peace of mind after a fleeting moment of excitement."
Lucifer and the others blinked, pondering the meaning of those words, while Mai Shiranui, who was watching from the sidelines, tilted her head, looking thoughtful.
Azazel blinked and said, "As expected of you, your answer is the most profound I've ever asked anyone... What do you mean?"
"Liking someone is about enjoying the beating of your heart. You'll be surprised by a gift, look forward to a date, and your heart will race when you hold hands. You'll think about many things."
"A constant yearning for more of these thrills, more surprises, more experiences, more love—a youthful yet intense yearning, like a campfire constantly burning wood, hot, bright, flickering, with wood added continuously to keep it burning and maintaining its fervor."
"And love still has these things, but we learn to grow, to enjoy everything we receive—the other person's care, surprises, and expectations—and to also learn to make corresponding contributions in return: time, space, and feelings. It is relative, mutual, and something that both parties work together to cultivate."
"Years later, I might still be moved by a sudden surprise, and I might still feel happy because of an intimate gesture or term of endearment during a date. But deep down, will I feel at peace, or will I still feel an intense burning passion?"
"Yes, but I suddenly realized that sometimes, just the right amount of warmth is the best. It's something that's been warming you without warning, something you suddenly notice, like a small campfire that's been quietly burning, just right in a peaceful environment."
"Responsibility, respect, companionship, dedication, tolerance, support, recognition, listening, and a little bit of liking that has never changed but has become more reserved and matured. However, everyone's definition of love is different because everyone's thoughts, abilities, and life are different, but this is my answer."
Lucifer and the others listened quietly, because they suddenly realized that they were very happy, with a faint sweetness in their hearts, but... more than anything, they felt a sense of peace, an extraordinary sense of peace, so much so that a faint smile quietly appeared on their faces without them even realizing it.
"As expected of you... Third question, as the sole manager of this restaurant that can be described as the hub of all worlds, what are your thoughts on other worlds?"
