People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Okay, I know. I know you care about my health. Don't worry, I know. I can only work this hard for another year or two."

"And then you retreated to the mountains to focus on cultivating immortality?"

"Pfft... No, that's not it. Then I had my own family, so I had to prioritize my family. Besides, I was working overtime to make up for my negligence. Actually, I wanted to just drop everything and run to you..."

Bai Yu sighed and said, "I didn't mean to blame you. Just take better care of yourself in the future, okay?"

"Um...by the way, I need to tell you something. Come closer..."

Bai Yu glanced at Yumiko, and then...

"Wow! As expected of Bai Yu!"

Bai Yu immediately grabbed Yumiko's leg, picked her up, and said with a smile, "Is there anything you want to say?"

Yumiko blushed but still smiled and whispered in Shiraha's ear, "I haven't had much time to spend with you these past few years. When we have our own family in the future... I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you..."

"Then you should take even better care of your health, so that you can grow a little longer..."

"it is good..."

Sonoko said with a hint of helplessness, "Watching these two together really feels like reading a romance comic..."

"Agreed..."

After jumping down, Yumiko glanced around before looking at Pandemonica and Masayoshi. The two were also taken aback. Masayoshi asked in confusion, "Yumiko, is there anything you want to say?"

Yumiko glanced at Shiraha before smiling and saying, "There is indeed something to say... Let's go watch the match first. I heard there were some unpleasant things that happened before today's match started."

"What?"

"Let's talk as we walk. By the way, Justice and Pander... you two are surprisingly interesting girls too."

Justice and Pandemonica were taken aback. Justice asked in confusion, "Huh? What do you mean?"

"Let's talk about it when we get there, Bai Yu. Mom was talking about you the other day."

"Hmm? Really? What did you say?"

"that is..."

Looking at the group of people chatting, Justice glanced at Pandemonica with a puzzled expression. Pandemonica then pushed up her glasses and said softly, "Lord Justice... I feel like I'm about to be talked to."

Chapter 908 Yumiko: What are you struggling with? (Please subscribe~)

At this moment, Yumiko and the others were all looking at the tennis match in front of them with surprised expressions. Yumiko and Sonoko were fine, but Lucifer and the others' worldviews were refreshed again.

"Huh?! Wait, what kind of fighting style is this?!"

"This posture...can human muscles be this flexible?!"

"Is this level of physical execution for real?!"

Hearing the surprised gasps from Nami and the others around her, Sonoko chuckled and said, "This is acceptable. It's just a matter of physical ability. If you saw something really that outrageous, wouldn't you be scared out of your wits?"

Yuno Gasai swallowed hard and said, "This is unlike any tennis I've ever seen before! What kind of tennis is this?! It's terrifying!"

The others also agreed. Sonoko thought for a moment and said, "I've seen him before. He's probably... Shiraha-nii! If I remember correctly, he's like a bomb."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's right. The people in Sonoko were terrified at the time, and afterwards they even spent 10,000 yen to buy a few tennis balls to see if there were any bombs inside."

Sonoko blushed, coughed lightly, and said, "Brother Baiyu... let's not talk about this anymore, please save me some face... I got scolded by my mom for buying a bunch of tennis balls to play with, and she cut my allowance..."

Lucifer said irritably, "There's no way you could put a bomb inside a tennis ball! But a tennis ball that looks like a bomb... that's a bit scary..."

Yuko Ichihara narrowed her eyes and said, "So... Yumiko, what was that unpleasant thing you mentioned earlier? What happened between that kid named Echizen and that strange Akutsu Jin?"

"According to Shusuke, Akutsu Jin injured Echizen Ryoma with a stone, and it hit him in the face..."

Nami and the others instinctively covered their faces, as it sounded very painful. Mordis said with a look of horror, "It sounds so painful! No wonder you have bandages on your face!"

After watching for a while, Bai Yu said softly, "Yumiko, did Shusuke do anything with the person who taught Yuta that half-volley tennis?"

Yumiko nodded and said, "Yes, Shusuke taught that guy named Kanzuki a lesson he won't forget. Shusuke completely crushed his confidence."

After thinking for a while, Bai Yu said softly, "So Shusuke is a genius type of player rather than a violent type. If it were that guy, he probably wouldn't dare to touch tennis again."

Yumiko sighed and said, "I guess that's Shusuke's anger and gentleness... Even when he's furious, he won't resort to violence to solve problems. That's something you really understand..."

Lucifer and the others looked puzzled and said, "Exactly the same?"

Rindou Kobayashi waved his hand and said, "Bai Yu's way of solving things is: if there's nothing wrong, come to him; but if there is, if it can be resolved with fists, don't bother with reasoning..."

"Uh..."

Bai Yu tilted his head and said, "Generally speaking, anything that can be considered a serious matter usually requires someone to be taught a lesson. Let's go, there's no need to continue watching."

Yumiko nodded and said, "Okay, you all go ahead and get busy. I have some things I want to tell you. Zhengyi, Mengmeng, Pande, I have something I need you to do."

"Eh?" x3

The three of them, including Zhengyi, were stunned. After a moment of hesitation, Lucifer leaned close to Yumiko and whispered, "Yumiko, it's up to you now..."

Yumiko smiled and said, "Lucifer, you've improved a lot! Justice, Mengmeng, and Pande, the three of you come with me. Bai Yu... I owe you one more time..."

Bai Yu shook his head and left with a reluctant Sonoko. Mordis and the others also said goodbye and followed after them, leaving only Zhengyi and the other two standing there with puzzled expressions.

Yumiko smiled at the three somewhat nervous people and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing. Let's go find a place to have a cup of coffee."

Upon hearing about coffee, Pandemonica agreed without hesitation, while Zhengyi asked with a puzzled look, "Yumiko, what do you need the three of us for?"

"You'll see when we get there. To be honest, Pander, you're the one I should have been looking for the most, without a doubt."

Pandemonica was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Why did you specifically call me out?"

"You know perfectly well, don't you? Come on, I'll drive. You're all coming with me today."

"Oh..." x3

On the other side, Yuko Ichihara asked doubtfully, "Lucy, do you think Yumiko's words were useful?"

"It might not be useful for anyone else, but it will definitely be useful for Yumiko. Right, Yuno!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Lucifer tilted his head and said, "Yuno, have you decided where you want to go to school? Sora isn't here, so you can choose whatever you want."

After hesitating for a long time, Yuno Gasai said softly, "I want to go to Shuchiin, but will Sora get angry if I say that?"

"No, at most it'll just mean one less person to accompany her to school... wait... it seems like Shuchiin and Sumeragi are on the same route for a long stretch, so you can go to school together. And after school... Yuno, you could pick up Sora."

"Hmm... but is it possible to run into her? Shuchiin is a bit farther than Kozakura."

"It should be possible, after all, if you're good enough for Shuchiin Academy, you should be able to have some privileges."

Yuno Gasai thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "Alright... then I'll choose Shuchiin. As for which class... I hope there will be some normal classmates."

Bai Yu said gently, "You should just go to Kaguya Shinomiya's class. Yuno, you think so too, right?"

"Hmm! I was a little hesitant at first, but if it's what you think, Shiraha... then I'll choose Kaguya Shinomiya's class!"

While they were chatting happily, Yumiko led Zhengyi and the others towards a coffee shop. Yumiko whispered, "Pande..."

"Ok?"

What are you really thinking?

"what?"

"So, what are you struggling with right now?"

Chapter 909 Yumiko's Five Questions, the Decisive Question (Please Subscribe~)

The atmosphere inside the car was unusually quiet. Riven looked completely bewildered, utterly unaware of what had happened. Justice sighed, somewhat helplessly, while Pandemonica froze.

After a long pause, Pandemonica asked softly, "Yumiko, what kind of dilemma are you referring to?"

"As for you three... to be honest, your personalities are completely different, yet you three have the same result in the same situation."

Justice adjusted his sunglasses and said softly, "I think I know what you want to talk to us about..."

"We're here, get off the bus."

Riven looked completely bewildered throughout, utterly unaware of what was happening. Those who know her are aware that she is now on the same side as Justice and Pandemonica.

Yumiko and her three friends clearly attracted a lot of attention, resulting in this scene: Yumiko appeared very easygoing and gentle throughout, followed by one person who looked elegant and noble, and two other handsome men with different styles.

"Four mochas, with milk but no sugar, a mixed-color macaron, a fruit salad, and almond coconut gingerbread. That's it."

After placing her order, Yumiko interlaced her fingers, rested her chin on the back of her hands, and said softly, "Pander, Justice, and Momo, I'll just ask five questions."

"What?" x3

Yumiko smiled and said gently, "I just want to know how you view family ties? I want the most honest answer."

The question surprised all three of them. Yumiko said gently, "Mengmeng, why don't you go first?"

Riven was taken aback. After a long while, she said softly, "Family... To be honest, I don't know what family is. For me personally, I am someone who wanders around looking for my place. My world is only about betrayal and moving forward."

"But... since I came here, I can feel that my wandering has come to an end. I'm not sure if this is my final destination, but I know that if it is, I will be very happy."

"I don't know what family is, but I do know that I'm happy when I'm with everyone, and I feel relaxed every day. That's what I want to protect. I don't know if the emotion that influences this thought is family..."

Yumiko nodded, glancing at Masayoshi and Pandemonica. After a long pause, Pandemonica whispered, "Family... I'd rather be with my family than with outsiders..."

After Zhengyi stammered for a while, Yumiko simply smiled and then said gently, "So, the second question is, how do you view love?"

This question made Riven blush instantly. Pandemonica looked at Yumiko, who was smiling, and after a long while, she said softly, "Love is something that can make even the most composed person go crazy, lose sleep, and lose all sense of right and wrong... It can also make a person's heart race at times and feel at peace at others."

A hint of surprise flashed in Yumiko's eyes before she looked at Riven. Riven whispered, "I guess it's not that I hate it. I miss it when I can't see it, but I feel at ease even if I don't do anything when I see it. Sometimes it even makes my mind feel a bit chaotic..."

Yumiko nodded without speaking. She looked at Seigi again, who this time silently adjusted her sunglasses and said softly, "Yumiko... my answer is... it's probably that you can always have a crush on someone you don't dislike..."

Yumiko paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Masayoshi, it's surprising that you can say some interesting things. So, the third question is, what are your concepts of family?"

Yumiko looked directly at Riven, who paused for a moment before scratching her head and saying, "Home...a home is where everyone gets together, right..."

A resolute glint flashed in Pandemonica's eyes, and she said softly, "If I had to choose a place to call my home, I think I have no other choice but here."

Yumiko looked at Masayoshi and said gently, "Masayoshi, what do you define 'home'? Is it a free party venue? A place to eat? Or a fun toy?"

Justice paused for a moment, and this time Justice remained silent for a long time, so much so that Riven wondered if Justice had been switched. Just as Yumiko was about to speak, Justice smiled and said, "Home? Home is probably a place where there's always a light on for me no matter how late I play."

Yumiko smiled and said, "So, one last question: what are your thoughts on Shiraha?"

There was no surprise or doubt; all three were unexpectedly calm, so calm that Yumiko was momentarily stunned. Just as Yumiko was about to speak, she heard Riven softly say, "Bai Yu... Bai Yu is probably the one who gave me kinship and a home..."

Yumiko chuckled and said, "Mengmeng, do you dislike Bai Yu?"

"I don't dislike it..."

"If Bai Yu were to go on a long trip, would you be interested?"

"meeting...."

Do you usually feel at ease when you see Bai Yu? Like, you feel like nothing will happen.

"Um...yes..."

Riven was also stunned. Yumiko said softly, "So... about the bunny girl from before, were you... confused?"

Riven fell silent. Yumiko glanced at Pandemonica again before speaking gently, "I won't ask any more questions. I just want to know one thing: have you ever had a sleepless night because of something Shiraha did?"

"I..."

"Sleepless nights, just scrolling through my phone liking posts, writing comments and then deleting them...is that right?"

Pandmonica fell silent as well. Yumiko said gently, "Pander, it seems you've found the source of your dilemma. Justice, what do you think?"

"I... okay... I have indeed been attracted to you... Yumiko, you...."

Yumiko waved her hand to interrupt Masayoshi, and said gently, "One last question... Do you like this feeling of inner turmoil?"

This question left all three of them frozen in place. Yumiko simply chuckled and shook her head. She really felt like she was taking care of these three children.
