Yutenji Wakamu was stunned for a moment.
"Who is Hachiman Kairin? Me?"
"if not?"
"But I'm not Hachiman Kairin."
"what?"
Ch198. Mu is a woman who could be my mother.
"Wow, does Mu's family not have anyone to cook? Mu seems completely unfamiliar with her own kitchen."
Ningzi leaned against the kitchen door, watching Wakaba Mutsu rummaging through drawers and cupboards looking for the salt shaker, and a strange sense of déjà vu arose within her.
I feel that I am more familiar with this family than I am with Wakaba Mutsu.
"I heard that Xiao Mu was very busy before, with ballet and piano lessons and other miscellaneous classes to attend. She seems to be doing much better lately."
"I turned them all down because I needed to spend more time taking care of Xiao Ning."
They actually turned it down...
This idiot.
"Hey, won't your uncle and aunt be upset with you?"
Toyokawa Ningko looked like a child who had made a mistake, covering most of her face with the half-open kitchen door.
"It's alright, I've already taken care of those things."
"Uh, okay, alright?"
"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with Xiao Ning. After all, it was my own choice."
Mu finally found a cutting board for chopping vegetables, on which he could still vaguely see the marks of his past knife practice.
"When you were little, I cooked for you like this. Do you remember?"
Although Ye Mu's chopping movements were clumsy, it was clear that she had some skill. Holding the cleaver, she chopped again and again, turning the poor cucumber into cucumber stones.
Amidst the overflowing juices, Wakaba Mutsu still had the leisure to chat.
"Ahem, when I was little... so many things happened when I was little, but I remember them vaguely."
This is a lie, but it's insignificant.
Toyokawa Ningko's only childhood memory is of her mother's embrace.
And the wicked Xiangzi who was vying with her for her mother's embrace.
The role of mother has been diluted, and Xiangzi, who consciously took on the responsibilities of an older sister, has taken on most of the functions of a mother.
For example, using it as a sleeping pillow or offering your embrace free of charge.
But how could that possibly be enough?
After Ningzi finished speaking, Mu did not respond. Only when Ningzi walked closer did she realize that Mu was seriously chopping vegetables.
Her small face was tense, her seriousness and effort written all over her face.
What an idiot... does he want to take on his mother's cooking skills?
Ningzi kept watching Mu until he put down the kitchen knife before she hugged him.
"Xiao Mu, you looked really cool just now, just like my mother."
"Sorry, did I remind Xiaoning of something unpleasant?"
"Nonsense, don't make wild guesses about things like that... I just wanted to talk to Xiaomu..."
Mu is so cute wearing an apron.
"Xiao Mu, can you try to be my mother... You look so much like her, the way you were just now, it makes me nostalgic."
"it is good."
Although Mu didn't know what to do either.
But agreeing wasn't difficult, so Mu gave Ningzi a quick and easy answer, along with the sense of security that came with it.
"Xiao Ning, do you want Mommy to hug you?"
Mu didn't experience much maternal love, but she imagined what it would be like if her mother were always by her side.
She was trying to portray a character she had imagined, and to give that character the most perfect makeover.
Eliminate all complaints, discard the possibility of taking out your anger on your child due to your own emotional instability, and finally apply the feedback you get from your series of dissatisfactions.
This is the kind of mother that Mu is now playing out of line.
"Mom, you just chopped vegetables, they look dirty, so I won't let you hug me."
"Is that so? Then I'll go take a shower..."
"Silly girl! I don't mind! Let me hug you... Mother..."
Ningzi wrapped her arms around Mu's neck.
Its neck was so slender that it looked as if it could be broken with the slightest force.
"Mom, do you know..."
Ningzi's voice was neither too loud nor too soft. She looked at the wall behind Mu, her amber eyes not only on Ruoye Mu.
"what?"
Mom, I heard your voice at the fast food restaurant today.
"It's okay, I like you."
You asked me to leave Mu, so I can think carefully about how good Mu has been to me.
However, people always grow and progress.
"I like you too."
There's no point in constantly doubting.
I no longer question what kind of people Mutsuka Wakaba and everyone else are.
Thank you for letting me hear your voice again, just like I said to you.
Go to hell! And I wish you happiness in that place.
I hope to live to be a hundred in my next life.
Your daughter is taking good care of your other daughter.
"Xiao Ning, are you feeling unwell again? Should we go and see her again?"
Musatsu opened Ningzi's eyes and noticed that the child's eyes had become red.
Mu ran her thumb across the corner of the other person's eye, wanting to say something that would touch their heart, but then realized it didn't seem quite right.
"No need, I'm perfectly fine. Xiao Mu, could you say that to me one more time?"
"Which one?"
"It's just... I like you, and I wish you happiness, just these eight words, is that okay?"
I like you, and I wish you happiness.
"Thank you... From what perspective did Mu say that?"
"Your family."
"Love you."
"Yeah, I love you too. Let's go sit outside for a while. Xiao Xiang should be here soon. If you're bored, there's a Switch on the sofa."
"Eh?"
Ningzi was picked up by Mu and carried to the living room.
This living room is interesting; it's the scene of Ningzi beating Ningzi and Ningzi.
In the empty space, Toyokawa Ningko seemed to see a little madwoman with long blue hair choking herself, slapping herself, spinning around in circles, rolling on the sofa, muttering and cursing herself all the while.
That's the way it is.
Looking at the game console covered in dust on the table, and at Wakaba Mutsu who had already left again, Ningzi took out her phone, completely bewildered.
"Or... I'll just wander around the internet."
What kind of electronic pet will the internet recommend to her today?
The figure in the kitchen was blurry, and the girl on the sofa kicked off her stockings.
Ningzi looked at the text message sent by Yutenji Wakana and realized that it had been several hours ago.
[Ryomen Sukuna: Nene...cough cough, are you feeling better now?]
[Neko: Huh? 】
[Ryomen Sukuna: Looks much better. By the way, when is the next video shoot? What you said earlier was a bit vague, I didn't quite understand... Basically, you're telling me to step up my efforts, right?]
I'll enlarge your head.
Wait, wait, increase it?
[Neko: I have a super brilliant idea, do you want to hear it?]
[Ryomen Sukuna: What?]
[Neko: Let's make a video this time that's really something new! Like...]
【Ryomen Sukuna:? ? ? 】
[Neko: You come to be my mother, and then kill me.]
Ch199. Battle Form: Toyokawa Shoko
"No? What did you say? You're not Hachiman Kairin? Huh? Are you kidding me?"
Toyokawa Shoko felt like her trigeminal nerve was about to explode.
She's been holding her breath ever since, silently repeating "forbearance and avoid confrontation" to herself hundreds of times a day...
She wanted to wait until she was more mature, or until she had saved enough money to live on her own, before confronting Hachiman Kairin, the representative of Tokyo's dark side, face to face.
I didn't expect her to show up on her own today even though I didn't go looking for her... But what's with this "she's not Hachiman Kairin" thing?
Is this woman suffering from amnesia? Or does she also have a...twin sister?!?!
Toyokawa Shoko raised her phone and pointed it at Yutenji Wakana.
"Is this photo of you?"
That was a highly edited photo of Yutenji Wakamae.
"it's me."
"is it?"
"Yes, that was when I first started in the live streaming industry."
"this is not you."
"If it wasn't me, then it must be you, sister. I've seen this before; it's a scene from that movie... So you're playing a role-playing game with me now?"
Yutenji Wakana, still not understanding what was going on, raised an eyebrow, as if she had figured out what Ningzi was doing.
So you just wanted to play, huh? You should have said so earlier.
They were making such a racket, it scared the living daylights out of me.
"you!!!!!"
Toyokawa Ningko almost choked on her breath.
Role-playing? Huh?
Are you... brain-dead?! Or did you actually do this kind of thing with Xiao Ning? Huh?
ha?
ha? ?
