Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

The whole family was happy and blessed for her birth and took care of her as she grew up.

Similarly, children who grow up in such a warm family do not have a spoiled little girl's temper that can easily explode. They are well-educated, emotionally stable, have strong empathy, and can put themselves in other people's shoes.

Once you gain her approval, she will treat you with a sincere heart.

Shijo Shinki could have just done the same as her and asked someone to investigate Kitahara Takashi.

But she didn't.

She trusted her own judgment, and also trusted that Watanabe Takashi would not lie to her.

This is the biggest difference between her and Shijo Shinki.

"I'm really jealous, Mahiru."

Kashiwagi Nagisa lowered his eyelids and listened absentmindedly to Kitahara Takashi's report.

The next day, when the first ray of sunlight came through the gaps between the curtains in the early morning.

A figure suddenly sat up.

The figure lifted his upper body from the bed and placed his slender legs wrapped in cute wrinkled pajamas on the floor. Then the rustling sound of clothes could be heard.

After quietly changing her clothes, Nakano Yotsuba gently opened the door, walked out of the room, and tiptoed down from the second floor to the entrance.

After she changed her shoes, she looked up and saw that Nakano Nino had appeared in front of her at some point, staring at her silently without saying a word.

"what!!!"

Nakano Yotsuba screamed in fear.

He leaned back and fell to the ground.

Seeing the person in front of her clearly, Nakano Yotsuba slapped her chest and said, "Nino, you scared me to death!"

"You haven't done anything wrong? What are you afraid of?"

Because she was not wearing contact lenses, Nakano Nino could not see clearly and her eyes narrowed unconsciously, making her look extremely aggressive.

"By the way, where are you going so early in the morning?"

"Go, go for a run."

Yotsuba's guilty gaze wandered.

It was true that she went for a run, but she wasn't telling the truth either.

Deep down, Yotsuba didn't want her sisters to know about Kitahara Tsuyoshi.

A boy she knew before was like this, but he was snatched away by the other sisters after they found out.

She didn't want this to happen to her again.

Afraid that Nino would continue to ask questions and see the flaw, Yotsuba hurriedly said, "Nino, do you want to come with me?"

"No, I still need to sleep. I was watching TV series last night and I'm so sleepy." Nakano Nino covered her mouth with her little hand and yawned.

"By the way, why don't you have breakfast first?"

Even though they had already stayed up late, Nino Nakano didn't mind staying up a little longer, making breakfast and then going to bed.

"No, I have..." Midway through her sentence, Nakano Yotsuba rolled her eyes and changed the subject: "Nino, can I have some cookies?"

She felt a little embarrassed for always eating Kitahara Takashi's food.

"Of course you can. Are you full?"

Nino was a little hesitant.

In the whole family, the one who eats the most is Satsuki Nakano.

The second is Nakano Yotsuba.

She exercises so much every day and eats a lot.

"can!"

Yotsuba took off her shoes again and pushed Nino to the kitchen.

Nino always felt that Yotsuba was weird, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

*

After turning an intersection, Yotsuba broke into a jog.

Under an old locust tree, Nakano Yotsuba saw the quiet boy who was holding the dog and reading a book.

"Kitahara-kun!"

Before he ran to her, Yotsuba shouted from afar.

The cool breeze of early summer blew the silver hair. The handsome boy raised his head, his eyes slightly curved, the corners of his lips raised, and he raised the book he was reading and waved it gently.

The wind whistled past my ears, and along with it the throbbing of youth.

60. Kitahara Takashi, what kind of man are you? (Please vote)

"Kitahara-kun, here!"

She ran to Kitahara Tsutomu, but before Kitahara Tsutomu could give her breakfast, Nakano Si took out some biscuits that looked very exquisite from his pocket.

Beiyuan Zun raised his eyebrows slightly and pointed at himself: "For me?"

"Yes!"

The four-leaf chicken nodded frantically like pecking at rice.

"I've been eating your breakfast all the time, but there's nothing I can do to repay you."

After hearing this, Kitahara Tsutomu's eyes became complicated.

This stupid kid.

Don’t you know that free is the most expensive?

"Thank you, and your breakfast."

Although he felt unworthy of it, Kitahara Tsutomu still accepted it.

At worst, I can give Siye a discount when charging.

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri will give 100,000, and Yotsuba, you should give 99,000.

"What's today?"

When Yotsuba saw Kitahara Tsuyoshi's men, she happily took the bag of breakfast from Kitahara Tsuyoshi.

Now what she looks forward to most every day is the breakfast made by Kitahara Takashi.

Every day is like opening a blind box, which is exciting.

"Today we have steamed rice cakes and tofu pudding." Kitahara Tsutomu took a bite of the soft and sticky steamed cake and stammered vaguely.

After thinking about it, he added: "Salty."

Just as Yotsuba was about to open the sealed box, suddenly, a dog's paw pressed down on her hand.

Siye looked up and saw Xiaoha also looking at her eagerly.

If your owner has a gift, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t have one too.

What about it?

A man and a dog looked at each other with big eyes.

Every time Kitahara Takashi saw this scene, he wanted to laugh.

"It's asking you for a gift."

"what?"

Yotsuba's mouth dropped open.

When Xiao Ha saw her expression, he seemed to understand and widened his eyes in disbelief.

No, isn't it?

"Sorry, Xiao Ha, I forgot to prepare it for you." Just as Si Ye was about to reach out her hand, she saw Xiao Ha grinning with a ferocious expression.

"Woof woof woof woof (Don't get close to me)!"

Dogs also hold grudges.

He is just leaving this out, as long as he keeps saying this, you will never be able to step into the door of the Beiyuan family again!!!

"I'm sorry, I'll go buy you some dog food right now."

When Kitahara Tsutomu saw Siye standing up and really going to buy some for Xiaoha, he held his forehead helplessly and said, "Where are you going to buy dog ​​food so early in the morning?"

Siye was stunned and looked at Beiyuanzun inquiringly: "Then, what should we do?"

"On the way back, just go to the convenience store and buy a bottle of yogurt."

Xiao Ha barked again: "Woof woof (two bottles)!"

Beiyuan Zun looked at Xiaoha expressionlessly and warned, "Don't force me to slap you so early in the morning."

Xiao Ha's body trembled, and he retreated behind Siye, with a look of aggrieved look on his face.

Look at him, look at him!

"Okay, okay, I'm not sad anymore."

Siye patted Xiaoha's head with a distressed look on his face. "How about this? After you finish your run, come back with me. I have some uneaten Wagyu beef at home. I'll feed it to you when I get back."

As Xiao Ha listened, light gradually appeared in his eyes.

mom!

This mother has made up her mind and no one can stop her!

After hearing this, Kitahara Tsutomu suddenly felt that breakfast was no longer delicious.

Is it too extravagant to feed dogs Wagyu beef?

He can't bear to eat Wagyu beef.

The only chance he had to eat Wagyu beef was with our sister Ying.

"Are humans really worse than dogs?" Kitahara Tsutomu thought gloomily.

Kato Megumi was right.

Is this woman a god?

By the way, Yotsuba-san, does your family still need a dog?

He is the kind of person who can play with a smartphone, eat when he is hungry, drink water when he is thirsty, run home when it rains, and sleep when he is tired. He is a 394-month-old bootlicker.

"No, you really plan to go home with her."

After running, Kitahara Tsunari wanted to send Yotsuba back home.

Yotsuba was worried about being seen by her sisters, so she immediately refused.

When they were about to say goodbye at the traffic light, Xiao Ha refused to go back with Beiyuan Zun and insisted on following his new mother.

It looks like it will go wherever its mother goes, sharing the hardships with it.

If Kitahara Tsutomu knew the truth, he would almost believe this dog.

"Would you please stop embarrassing me?"

Kitahara Tsutomu looked at Xiaoha holding onto the four-leaf leg and howling in the street, and he really regretted saving it.

Yotsuba patted the little dog's head and said, "Kitahara-kun, why don't you let it come back with me?"

She also likes Xiao Ha very much.

She can't keep a dog, but it's okay to leave it at her house for a day or two.
