Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 910 - 534: Christmas Eve Approaches (Part 2)2

Hanamaru Yuuki smiled but said nothing.

Alright... just a teenage girl’s curiosity.

Forget it... he didn’t want to scold her for anything.

As long as she doesn’t cross any lines, she can do whatever she likes.

Although little Hanabi secretly called her a fox yesterday... the bond between the two sisters is really not bad; they’ve been playing together since childhood, and Yuuki is the kind of girl who’s obedient and listens to her older sister.

She can make clear distinctions between right and wrong, just a little bit of a young girl’s stubbornness.

"Do you want so breakfast?"

"Yes, yes, I do. Is brother-in-law making it? Is his cooking as good as my sister’s?"

"..."

That’s exactly the sore spot, Uesugi Sakura thought his cooking skills were on par with her hand-drip coffee skills.

"There’s a bento box I bought yesterday at noon in the fridge, still uneaten."

"Weird." Hanamaru Yuuki looked puzzled.

"Weird about what?"

"Brother-in-law has sister helping with dinner, so why specifically buy a bento? And, a few days ago, he even slept on the sofa..." Hanamaru Yuuki made a detective-like pondering gesture and then snapped her fingers, smiling at Uesugi Sakura, "Did brother-in-law have a fight with sister?"

Uesugi Sakura instinctively wanted to say no.

But in fact, they did.

He didn’t really want to lie to the little girl.

"There was a bit of a quarrel."

"Really?" Hanamaru Yuuki covered her mouth in surprise, "Let guess, it must be brother-in-law’s fault, right? Sister would never upset anyone."

"It was my fault..." Uesugi Sakura said, feeling like the energy drained out of him.

"Well, well, brother-in-law is actually a scumbag! From now on, the good man image of Yuuki’s heart will have a question mark, what’s the reason?"

"That’s sothing you don’t need to ask."

Uesugi Sakura dodged her, went to the fridge, took out three bento boxes, and put them in the microwave to heat.

Hanamaru Yuuki lightly hopped over to his side, "Brother-in-law, tell Yuuki~~"

Uesugi Sakura stared at her with dead fish eyes, "Who would bring out their own black history to tell, would you?"

"I would." Hanamaru Yuuki nodded decisively.

Uesugi Sakura crossed his arms, "Then tell ."

Hanamaru Yuuki put her index finger to her chin, thought for a mont, and said with the style of a lively girl, "Ugh... does doing *it* over 5 tis a week count?"

"...???"

Uesugi Sakura had a complete look of stunned disbelief.

Hanamaru Yuuki remained utterly unfazed, "Does brother-in-law think girls don’t need it?"

"No, I didn’t think that."

"So, did brother-in-law lose the bet? If brother-in-law thinks this black history isn’t heavy enough, I can also tell you about the other day when the toy I bought fell during use, accidentally in the living room, and Shinetsu discovered it. Back then, Shinetsu glanced at the toy my sister accidentally left behind, covered in stains, and even swallowed nervously."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Total silence.

Completely speechless!!!

Uesugi Sakura’s expression was complex, unable to articulate exactly how he felt.

Oh Yuuki... you, you, you, you’re a girl, and totally a beautiful girl, too.

Things that are basically social suicide, you speak of so lightly?

"Pfft—" Hanamaru Yuuki suddenly covered her mouth with both hands and laughed, "Brother-in-law’s expression just now was so weird."

Is it not supposed to be weird?

It would be strange if it wasn’t weird.

This kind of thing—

Uesugi Sakura cald down, "So, Yuuki, were you lying to ?"

"What else? Brother-in-law, you wouldn’t actually believe I had that kind of experience, right? Or are you thinking... hearing Yuuki would do such a thing, you linked it to ’even pretty girls do this,’ beca curious, and found it novel?"

Hanamaru Yuuki quickly added, "The latter part is fake, but the forr is true. The later plot I found in a manga book from Shinetsu’s room. Even my reserved little brother, upon entering puberty, would fantasize about pretty girl sisters? Or did the manga artist just happen to draw that topic?"

Uesugi Sakura looked speechless. The teenagers and girls of this era are a bit terrifying, is it because of too much information exposure?

"I just think you need so proper guidance."

"Brother-in-law, you sound just like my mom." Hanamaru Yuuki took several steps back, a frightened expression on her face.

"I’m beginning to sympathize with your mom; you need to be disciplined."

"No way! I ca here to Brother-in-law for refuge," Hanamaru Yuuki hid behind the fridge, peeking out, "If Brother-in-law becos like my mom, I’ll have my sister kick you out for a few days."

Uesugi Sakura laughed, "Who do you think Hanabi would kick out for a few days?"

"Humph, I know Sister loves Brother-in-law very much, but Yuuki has a way to make Sister do it!" Hanamaru Yuuki waved a finger in the air with her eyes closed, exuding a strange confidence.

The expression she wore definitely showed she had sothing up her sleeve.

Uesugi Sakura couldn’t help but be curious about what trick she could pull to have Hanabi kick him out for a few days.

Hanamaru Yuuki added, "Of course, Yuuki wouldn’t do anything that would harm Sister. Brother-in-law understands what Yuuki ans, right?"

"I understand." Uesugi Sakura nodded, knowing she ant she wouldn’t do anything Hanabi disliked.

"Alright, Brother-in-law, back to the topic, why did you make Sister angry?"

Uesugi Sakura glanced at the microwave tir, then at Hanamaru Yuuki, took a deep breath, and slowly recounted the story.

...

Uesugi Sakura, wearing gloves, took out a bento box from the microwave.

Hanamaru Yuuki thought for a long ti, "So, Brother-in-law forgot and didn’t co ho, missing the birthday party Sister planned for you. It’s understandable, but still a mistake."

Uesugi Sakura nodded, "You can think of it that way."

"Even though I understand Brother-in-law, I still feel sorry for Sister."

Uesugi Sakura handed a bento to Hanamaru Yuuki, "Here."

"Thank you, Brother-in-law." Hanamaru Yuuki suddenly noticed that Uesugi Sakura had been staring at her for a while, she smiled and asked, "What’s up? Do I have rice stuck on my face?"

"Ah—Yuuki."

Uesugi Sakura sighed deeply and then looked seriously, "Maybe you think what you said just now was cool, but your brother-in-law is telling you that so things shouldn’t be said so carelessly. It affects others’ impressions of you and can lead to strange ideas about you...

"I’m your brother-in-law, we’ve known each other for seven or eight years. So jokes, when you tell them to , I won’t mind... but if you say these things to others recklessly, or if you get deceived by sweet-talking from your boyfriend into doing things like taking photos or videos you shouldn’t, you’ll regret it."

"Brother-in-law... are you concerned about Yuuki?"

"I am concerned about you, since you are Hanabi’s sister and a living person. I don’t want to hear soday that you were threatened by your boyfriend... Even if, I say even if, the police help you get justice, and the Hanamaru family manages to control the spread online, there will always be people who know, right?"

"Yeah, that’s true." Hanamaru Yuuki listened earnestly.

"So, no more jokes like that, okay? It makes people think you’re a frivolous girl."

"But... except for the latter part, the forr is true." Hanamaru Yuuki said shyly.

Uesugi Sakura’s head was full of lines, "Even if it’s true, you shouldn’t say it! Alright, eat here yourself, I’m going to deliver food to your sister."

"Okay, take care, Brother-in-law~"

...Take care what, I’m in my own ho, aren’t I?

Uesugi Sakura shook his head, feeling a bit helpless with this quirky and energetic girl Hanamaru Yuuki.

Yet, fate gave her such good looks that when she was being cute, it was hard to get annoyed.
