Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 837 - 495: Hakodate Dinner in the Snow2

Actually, from the first ti he saw his sister, Uesugi Sakura thought she was such a small creature, fragile and delicate.

Hands, face, feet... she seed more fragile than a kindergarten child.

With this thought in mind, he couldn’t help but start to tease her little hands.

She would cry for the things she wanted, and he would try his best to satisfy her.

Perhaps because of the ti spent interacting with her, this little one beca especially clingy every ti she t him, her gem-like eyes sparkling with an indescribable light, observing everything in the outside world.

Listening to her baby’s babbling, he always thought back to his younger self.

Was he also this pure and innocent back then?

"Want to eat fruit?"

"Ya ya ya~"

Uesugi Sakura tried to take a grape from the table, slowly peeled it, and fed it to her, and she used her saliva-covered little lips to bite the grape into her mouth.

She’s really still so young, but Uesugi Sakura can already imagine her in the future, holding her sumr howork and asking her older brother [how to solve this problem?].

"Ya ya ya~"

Uesugi Sakura understood this as her wanting more to eat.

Mrs. Uesugi put the wagyu beef into the pot and said to Uesugi Sakura quite emotionally: "Since Sakura moved out, his interaction with Shin has decreased a lot, yet Shin has never forgotten her brother."

"Family bonds are ties," Mrs. Hanamaru said while turning ingredients in the pot with her chopsticks, "So people are unforgettable once you’ve t them... As long as you get along well in childhood, you’ll care for each other later."

"That’s certainly true."

Uesugi Sakura embraced Uesugi Shin, who was playing with his phone, and asked the nearby Hanamaru Hanabi:

"Hanabi, do you think, what matters more in a family, blood or emotions?"

"Of course, it’s emotions."

Hanamaru Hanabi stared at him without turning away, slightly frowning, probably upset about him not answering her call earlier, "Blood is just one of the ties that deepen emotions, but if emotions are gone, no matter how strong the ties, one day they may break."

Mrs. Hanamaru said: "Sakura, don’t the news always talk about weird murder news? Even if they’re mother and son, they can’t get along and even end up on irreconcilable opposing sides."

"Emotions are the most important." Mrs. Uesugi agreed and nodded repeatedly.

Uesugi Sakura was noncommittal, only emotions make a family.

The aroma of sukiyaki soon wafted from the pot, with the bubbling chicken broth base below boiling and forming bubbles, and beef slices being tossed around like waves.

The rising heat made Uesugi Sakura feel warmth after spending a long ti in the snowy weather, and the room filled with the scent of at gradually felt warm and cozy.

Once the beef in the pot was nearly boiling, Uesugi Sakura discreetly placed a piece in Hanamaru Hanabi’s bowl with a pair of chopsticks.

When she withdrew her gaze after clutching her chopsticks, she noticed the extra beef slice in her bowl and glanced towards Uesugi Sakura.

Her violet eyes seed to be saying sothing, carrying a hint of irritation.

Uesugi Sakura smiled: "Don’t be angry, it’s not intentional, consider this a peace offering."

Hanamaru Hanabi looked at the beef he put in her bowl and imdiately said with her stylish voice, both cute and quite dissatisfied: "This isn’t enough..."

"Alright, I’ll give you more."

Uesugi Sakura smiled gently, as if following his words, reaching his hand out to add another beef slice into Hanamaru Hanabi’s bowl, carefully selecting the best tenderloin part of the beef.

"Want more?"

"Yes." Hanamaru Hanabi said, eating the beef while seemingly holding her breath.

"Okay." Uesugi Sakura agreed with her.

It seems her anger hasn’t dissipated.

It’s really strange, she’s clearly annoyed, and he’s trying to appease her, yet he finds her much cuter now?

The way she bites into the beef slice, her face, eyes, and eyebrows all conveying her displeasure, and the way she occasionally glares at him with her beautiful eyes during the al...

All of it is endearing to the extre.

"Hanabi-chan."

"What?"

"Still want more?"

"Yes."

"Then I’ll feed you."

Hanamaru Hanabi took a mont to gather herself, first glancing at the two ladies feeding the little ones, then turning back to look at him, the light in her eyes seed to say, can’t you see the mothers are over there?

Uesugi Sakura was clearly just teasing her, "It’s okay, we have such a good relationship, they know it anyway."

"No."

"Don’t be afraid, I’ll feed you."

"No."

"Really, don’t be afraid, feeding my own wife is nothing—"

As Uesugi Sakura spoke, he suddenly noticed Hanamaru Hanabi looking at him with a happy smile, making him forget what he was about to say next.

"Why did you stop, Sakura?"

"I..." Uesugi Sakura swallowed his words upon seeing her cute smile, then pondered a bit before whispering to her, "Really here?"

"You were the one who said it, Sakura."

"Really?" Uesugi Sakura was just teasing her, he didn’t an it seriously.

"Of course, hurry up."

When Uesugi Sakura picked up her bowl, grasped his chopsticks, he realized he had fallen into her trap.

The art of feigned refusal.

Uesugi Sakura picked up a piece of beef, dipped it in the broth, and slowly brought it to her mouth, watching her look at him with adorable eyes, her expression brimming with satisfaction.

"Good...tasty?"

"Tasty." The girl said, biting into the beef slice.

She even deliberately raised her voice to attract the attention of the two mothers opposite.

Obviously, she succeeded, as Uesugi Sakura had already caught sight of the two mothers giggling.

They looked just like university girls who couldn’t help but gossip after seeing a juicy piece of news, only with a touch of maternal care.

"Hanabi wants more." Hanamaru Hanabi urged him again.

Uesugi Sakura: "..."

Listening to her cute voice, Uesugi Sakura, bound by the gaze, had no choice but to comply.

"More." After finishing, she imdiately called out again.

"More."

"More."

Hanamaru Hanabi’s smile grew cuter and happier.

After repeating like this three tis, the smiles of the two mothers turned into undisguised discussion.

Even if Uesugi Sakura were more thick-skinned, he wouldn’t want to display such sweet affection between couples in front of the two mothers.

Too embarrassing.

"Ahem," Uesugi Sakura put down the bowl and straightened his posture, "Hanabi-chan, eating more will make you gain weight."

"Sakura, what are you talking about?" Hanamaru Hanabi looked surprised, "Hanabi isn’t full yet, who was it just now who said he would feed his own wife?"

anwhile, Mrs. Hanamaru was just about to burst out laughing, she held Hanamaru Hanami and lifted her head, teasing the slightly embarrassed Uesugi Sakura opposite, "Little Sakura, you should just satisfy Hanabi, she must be starving."

"I..." Uesugi Sakura was montarily speechless.

Mrs. Uesugi also quickly smiled and echoed, "Yes, yes, Sakura, who asked you not to answer the phone just now, hurry, do as Hanabi-chan says."

Urged by the two mothers, Uesugi Sakura’s gaze returned to the elegant young girl before him, her sitting posture very demure, knees together, hands placed above, as if awaiting him to feed her.

"Sakura?"

"Sakura, hurry up."

"Yes, yes, hurry up."

The two mothers spoke with bits of laughter intermixed, almost unable to hold back.

Aei and Chiaei seed sowhat puzzled by the sight, but it didn’t prevent them from recognizing the scene’s atmosphere.

Under the gaze and urging of several people, Uesugi Sakura felt his scalp tingle.

He felt as though the bowl and chopsticks on the table were becoming as heavy as if filled with lead.

This situation...

How could he possibly feed it in?
