Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 740 - 446: Wanting Children, Barbecue Restaurant Gat

"Hey, Hanabi-chan didn’t co?"

Uesugi Sakura glanced at Hanamaru Hanabi and noticed she didn’t intend to explain her identity.

"Yeah, she’s at school. I heard she’s busy handing in assignnts."

Kobashi Rikai listened with so doubt, she clearly rembered that her friend from the painting departnt, who was in the sa class as Hanamaru Hanabi, was holed up in the dorm next door. They shouldn’t have classes...

Could it be an elective?

"I see," Towa Rina said with a smile, "No worries, we can go eat, Hanami-chan and you are here, now we’re just waiting on Yuuri and Yuno, as soon as they’re here, we can head over."

"Okay." Uesugi Sakura nodded.

Tashiro Yuuri and Tashiro Yuno, the twin sisters, didn’t keep everyone waiting long. They arrived at the red gate to et everyone five minutes later, and being the last to arrive, they apologized to the group.

"It’s okay, it’s okay." Towa Rina waved her hand cheerfully.

Uesugi Sakura looked at the two of them.

They were wearing the sa clothes, looked identical, and even had similar personalities.

At work, Uesugi Sakura often mistook the two of them, calling them by the wrong nas.

Later, after getting slightly more familiar, Uesugi Sakura learned their subtle differences.

Yuuri is the older sister, with a green and white striped cord on her wrist, while Yuno has an orange and white one.

"Sakura-kun~" Hanamaru Hanabi noticed his gaze.

"What’s up?" Uesugi Sakura turned his head.

"So, Sakura-kun likes twins, huh? I guess if there were two Hanabis... Sakura-kun would be happy to death." Hanamaru Hanabi put a finger to her lips, with a slightly surprised yet obvious expression.

Uesugi Sakura: "..."

The seven of them arrived at a barbecue restaurant.

After ordering, they sat at a rectangular table.

Uesugi Sakura noticed three charcoal grills in front of them and sat with Hanamaru Hanabi in the seat against the wall.

"Did the manager not co?" Uesugi Sakura asked Towa Rina, rembering that the manager had said they would be treated to a barbecue al.

"The manager is busy with renovations. She was supposed to co, but suddenly felt she must personally oversee the renovations to feel at ease." Towa Rina said, setting the tableware for Todaka Keichiro beside her.

"Ah, thanks."

"No worries, it’s on the company expense today, eat as much as you like."

"?"

Todaka Keichiro looked surprised, "Why didn’t you say so earlier? I was eyeing that A5 Wagyu beef at the counter, it’s as large as my upper body, huge!"

"Then go order it!"

"Alright!"

"Wait a bit, do you want a beer?" Towa Rina held Todaka back, smiling as she asked.

"Yes, definitely!"

Sitting opposite, Kobashi Rikai couldn’t help but remind him, "Don’t eat so much, didn’t your stomach just heal last month?"

Todaka Keichiro felt happy hearing Kobashi Rikai’s concern.

"Alright, then no drinking."

Suddenly having a sister showing concern felt indescribably heartwarming.

"Really, thinking of drinking... after all I said before... you..."

"I rember, I rember,"

Todaka Keichiro nodded vigorously and got up to set the tableware for Kobashi Rikai as a gesture of apology, "Don’t worry, don’t worry! I’m quite healthy."

Towa Rina couldn’t help but ask him, "Did you have a stomach problem?"

"Yeah, last ti after eating sashimi, I had a stomachache in the middle of the night." Todaka Keichiro replied sitting down.

"Was it very painful?" Tashiro Yuuri had her tableware ready, just waiting for the waiter to bring the beef and skewers.

Todaka Keichiro nodded, and after setting up for Kobashi Rikai, he returned to his seat, "At first I thought it was sothing I could endure, but when the pain hit, I couldn’t even walk."

Tashiro Yuno said plainly, but curiously, "So, you called an ambulance while enduring the pain...?"

"No... back then, because my parents just got married, Rikai moved to live at my house for a while, in the room next to mine. When she found out I had a stomachache, she carried downstairs and hailed a taxi by the roadside, and it was already 3 AM."

Towa Rina got more curious, feeling like she was onto big news, she asked Kobashi Rikai sitting opposite, "Kobashi-san, you... could carry Todaka?"

Kobashi Rikai still seed very embarrassed about the incident:

"N-no, it wasn’t a big deal, it was an ergency... I didn’t think much, I must have just gritted my teeth and got through it."

Uesugi Sakura gave a look at Kobashi Rikai, then at Todaka Keichiro who was smiling.

No wonder Todaka Keichiro said he liked her; she carried a guy downstairs in the middle of the night and called a cab to take him to the hospital, probably accompanying him late into the night.

And that was just when Todaka was freshly heartbroken.

It’s hard not to develop feelings when these two events stacked together.

After hearing all this, Hanamaru Hanabi whispered to Uesugi Sakura:

"Sakura-kun’s friend really likes his sister."

"Yeah." Uesugi Sakura nodded, taking a plate of fresh beef.

"But Hanabi doesn’t have high hopes for them." Hanamaru Hanabi’s smile was cute, only audible to the two of them seated closely.

"Why?" Uesugi Sakura sat back down, lowering his voice to ask.

Hanamaru Hanabi beckoned with a smile, leaning close to his ear and whispered:

"Because~~ the little fox likes Sakura-kun."

Uesugi Sakura was stunned for a few seconds, then imdiately sat upright, turning to face the smiling Hanamaru Hanabi, only mouthing silently:

"Really?"

Hanamaru Hanabi didn’t say anything, just nodded with a simple smile.

The people at the table were engaged in a lively discussion about Kobashi Rikai, continually asking Todaka Keichiro more about the details of that day.

At this mont, no one noticed Kobashi Rikai glanced at Uesugi Sakura while everyone was discussing her.

When Uesugi Sakura turned his head, they caught each other’s gaze for a mont.

Kobashi Rikai quickly lowered her head, with her hands on her lap, and it was hard to tell if it was because of the warmly lit dark barbecue restaurant, but her cheeks were a bit flushed.

At such a scene!

Uesugi Sakura’s heart tightened in an instant.

Oops.

Uesugi Sakura realized, oops.

It’s over, completely over!

Too troubleso!

He began to fully understand the situation.

He hurriedly turned back to Hanamaru Hanabi, still smiling, and whispered: "Hanabi-chan, what should I do?"

"Is Sakura-kun asking Hanabi?" Hanamaru Hanabi’s smile was still charming.

"Yes, yes, give so advice. I never noticed before, but when Kobashi and I made eye contact just now and she quickly lowered her face,

those sparkling eyes, and the gleam inside, they don’t lie.

Knowing the look in Hanamaru Hanabi’s eyes when she looks at him, Uesugi Sakura clearly understood.

"Sakura-kun didn’t believe before?

"I..." Uesugi Sakura was stunned, montarily speechless, lowered his voice and explained, "At the ti, I really didn’t notice, I thought she saw as that kind of senior."

"Sakura-kun didn’t notice while teaching her to make coffee every day?"

"..."

Uesugi Sakura knew Hanamaru Hanabi was deliberately teasing him, and she seed a bit jealous.

"I didn’t look her in the eye... she always kept her eyes on the coffee while learning." Uesugi Sakura tried to explain.

"Sakura-kun~~" Hanamaru Hanabi deliberately elongated her voice, her smile was unbearably cute, "What kind of feelings do you think she has for you?"

"Junior to senior?" Uesugi Sakura was unsure.

"Even if it’s junior to senior, juniors tend to gradually like their seniors. Haven’t you seen many examples in TV dramas even if you haven’t spotted any around you? Senior-junior romances~~"

"I..."

Uesugi Sakura wanted to say he rarely watched morning dramas, "Hanabi..."

"Sakura-kun has to solve this problem himself."

"Solve it myself?"
