Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 784 - 468: Since I can’t increase the favorability,

Returning ho and finishing the dinner made by Hanabi, Uesugi Sakura begins to continue outlining his novel.

It takes two hours to barely finish five thousand words.

The general plot is that the protagonist suddenly loses his childhood friend who ventured with him in Tokyo and was like a kindred spirit.

In such a situation, a phone call from the hospital informs him that his single mother has passed away in the hospital. Having struggled in Tokyo for ten years, all that remains in his hand is the 2 million yen his childhood friend had given him to help.

Looking at the bank card containing 2 million yen, and recalling her smiling departure yesterday, he finds it unbearably glaring.

In utter despair, he wanders into a coffee shop and ets a girl full of hope.

Uesugi Sakura exhales a murky breath, reviewing the manuscript he wrote.

Hanabi always said there was no need to kill off the protagonist’s childhood friend, but Uesugi Sakura thinks that the extre contrast of the childhood friend smiling and drinking the day before the accident makes it easier for readers to empathize with the protagonist’s emotions rather than viewing his life from a spectator’s perspective.

Having completed this work, Uesugi Sakura closes his notebook, stands up, leans against the balcony, and gazes at Tokyo’s night sky, enjoying the night breeze.

The cool breeze rustles, with a sea of lights in full view.

Uesugi Sakura watches the night scene for a while, then turns around, leans against the balcony, and watches Hanamaru Hanabi practicing yoga in the living room facing the television.

He doesn’t know when she started, but recently, whenever she has free ti at ho, she practices yoga.

This is quite good too; it unlocks more pos-... no, it’s beneficial for her health.

Uesugi Sakura promptly restrains the idea that popped into his head, pushes open the balcony door, and steps inside the room.

TV: "First, open your shoulders, move your shoulders back and forth widely, inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth, and slowly relax your body..."

Hanamaru Hanabi kneels on the yoga mat, following the television yoga instructor’s moves to slowly change her posture.

Such good flexibility.

Uesugi Sakura sits on the sofa behind her, propping his face with his right hand, admiring her movents.

Little Hanabi doesn’t have specialized yoga attire; she wears Uesugi Sakura’s shorts and a loose white T-shirt to start her yoga session.

His wife has a really good figure, no, rather than saying it’s really good, it’s more like her bare feet exposed outside, a bit...

Enticing.

Those small, pink feet occasionally lift, tiptoe, close together, or curl inward.

Uesugi Sakura feels like the padding on her soles is not pressing the yoga mat, but his long-unsoothed body.

He really wants to hug her from behind.

But...

With his current -20 affection, suddenly hugging her will surely lead to a sudden drop in affection, like earlier in the afternoon.

Affection... affection...

To be honest, when it actually cos to increasing affection, Uesugi Sakura doesn’t know what to do.

What thods did he use in the past to make Hanabi happy?

Uesugi Sakura pondered hard.

...

TV: "When you exhale, lower your head, good, hold it..."

Hanamaru Hanabi held the position following the yoga teacher on TV for five minutes and then realized that the half-hour yoga session on the TV had ended.

[Thank you all for watching today, see you next ti, thank you.]

Hanamaru Hanabi took a deep breath, then knelt on the yoga mat, closed her eyes, and quietly rested.

...

"Here, have one."

Hanamaru Hanabi opened her eyes when hearing his voice, finding Uesugi Sakura in front of her, holding a plate of washed grapes, feeding one directly to her mouth.

"Sakura-kun, so sudden."

"Ah? Really?" Uesugi Sakura feigned ignorance, smiling at her and said, "Actually, I suddenly felt hungry, so I thought of washing so fruit to eat. Such a coincidence, I ca out and saw you just finished yoga. I thought you must be tired, and being the good man I am, of course I couldn’t neglect my wife, so I ca over to personally feed you one."

"Really...?" Hanamaru Hanabi cast him a questioning look.

"Really, really."

Uesugi Sakura replied smiling, "Co on, eat quickly."

Looking at the grapes he was offering with a smile, Hanamaru Hanabi was about to take a bite when she suddenly rembered sothing, pouted her face, and puffed out, "Sakura-kun, you can’t call wife, the affection is only -20!"

"Alright, alright," Uesugi Sakura quickly fed her the grape, "I won’t call you that."

Eating the grape, Hanamaru Hanabi: "Mmm, mmm mmm..."

Uesugi Sakura looked at her small face and smiled, "Wife is so cute."

Hanamaru Hanabi puffed her cheeks again.

Uesugi Sakura quickly said with a smile, "I know, I know."

After feeding ten grapes, Uesugi Sakura looked at her with anticipation.

With Hanamaru Hanabi changing the TV channel, being stared at made her uneasy, she asked, "Sakura-kun... why are you staring at Hanabi?"

"What do you think...?" Uesugi Sakura maintained his smile, posing as a caring boyfriend in front of her.

"I don’t know." Hanamaru Hanabi shook her head.

"That, that thing, the thing starting with good."

Hanamaru Hanabi understood what he ant.

"Sakura-kun, you want affection points?"

"Yes! Yes! That’s it, of course, using a chance to increase affection points to exchange for the privilege of sleeping with you tonight isn’t bad either." Uesugi Sakura grinned confidently.

...

The roar of planes occasionally echoed in the distant edge of the sky outside the window.

Uesugi Sakura stared at the dark living room ceiling, sleeping on the sofa with a life-sized shark plush.
