However, Shirakawa Sawahei was also sowhat relieved that Asano Fūsei took the Black Hearted Lolita away. Just now, Hayakawa Sawaba’s second question clearly showed she didn’t care about the little lolita, and given her fiery temper, it’s hard to say she wouldn’t burst out, prompting her mother to include her as well.
Quivering with anger! Can our loli ever catch a break? When will the sister complex go extinct?
Oh wait, my mom shouldn’t be called a sister complex... eldest daughter complex?
Quivering with anger! When will the second daughter finally stand up!
"Hayakawa, let ask, you’re probably in a pretty good mood right now, aren’t you?"
"Get to the point." The Evil Little Arrogant put on a serious face, seemingly using her actions to refute Shirakawa Sawahei’s query. Seeing Miss Kaori like this, Shirakawa Sawahei actually breathed a sigh of relief, feeling reassured.
Phew, relieved, the Little Arrogant Study Girl isn’t really angry.
There won’t be another offense on Hayakawa Kashi’s grudge list... though whether or not this one is added seems to make no difference. Offending Miss Kaori once or ten tis, the only difference is that the forr is a quick death, whereas the latter involves prolonged suffering...
"Nothing much, just checking in on you." Shirakawa Sawahei said, waving his hand, "I’m heading to the office; our three-way conversation was just interrupted."
Hayakawa Kashi rembered sothing and asked with interest, "Wait a minute..."
"You know that woman inside?"
"Who? Mrs. Tsukimi?" Shirakawa Sawahei replied, "She’s Tsukimi, our Calligraphy Club Director’s mother."
"Oh, I see."
Miss Kaori nodded and curved her lips, like she had found sothing amusing. Seeing this, Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but wonder, "Miss Hayakawa, are you plotting against again?"
"Absolutely not, just think Shirakawa, you look kind of cute like this."
"But you just said I was annoying."
"That was just a mont ago." The Little Arrogant raised an eyebrow, "Now is now."
"So, does that an I’ve beco cute from now on?"
"Not really." Miss Kaori laughed, her eyes sparkling with charm, "You’re only cute for an instant."
"Then my history of cuteness is quite brief." Shirakawa Sawahei comnted dryly, "And, do girls really describe guys as cute?"
"It’s a new adjective I learned recently. I heard it’s the highest level of praise."
"You’re learning vocabulary from TV shows, aren’t you? The language teacher would be turning in their grave." Shirakawa Sawahei looked skeptical, asking, "Did you find out sothing and kept it from ?"
"I thought Shirakawa would have figured it out by now?" Hayakawa Kashi countered.
Shirakawa Sawahei paused for a second, suddenly recalling that mysterious group investigating him earlier, hesitating before asking, "Wasn’t it them...?"
"Shirakawa’s misunderstanding runs deep. You always thought it was the Tsukimi family targeting you?" Hayakawa Kashi said softly, "You should have ntioned this assumption to sooner; it would have saved you from racing down the wrong path."
"..."
The Evil Little Arrogant’s odd taphor darkened Shirakawa Sawahei’s expression, and he frowned, "Not Tsukimi Yamadori? She admitted to investigating before."
"I know she looked into you, but she doesn’t harbor any malice."
"How do you know?"
"The Tsukimi Family wouldn’t go behind your back to target a penniless guy." Hayakawa Kashi cast a light glance at him, adding, "Besides, you have quite the relationship with their heir..."
"Heir? Tsukimi sakurazawa?"
Shirakawa Sawahei was montarily stunned. He had thought about the extraordinary background of the crying monster before, but given his imagination, at most, he thought she was a mafia princess...
As expected, the crying monster never disappoints in backstabbing.
Another tycoon heiress? Which conglorate is the Tsukimi family? Please point it out so I can rember.
Hayakawa Kashi noticed the look on Shirakawa’s face and knew he was once again racing down the wrong path, reminding, "The Tsukimi family isn’t a conglorate."
"But calling them a conglorate wouldn’t be inaccurate either."
"What?"
"You know Asakusa Temple?"
Shirakawa Sawahei nodded, "The oldest temple in Tokyo, with considerable status... wait..."
"You’re not telling Asakusa Temple belongs to the Tsukimi family, are you???"
"No, it’s just an analogy." Miss Kaori said casually, "Their family runs temples, and they’re the landlords of a large area."
Shirakawa Sawahei: "..."
I wanted to continue interacting with you all as an ordinary person, but you all, one by one, just had to show your hands and reveal your cards all at once, right???
Are you all billionaires?
The two sisters of the Hayakawa family are tycoon heiresses, the crying monster is a temple heir, and I’m the only ordinary person among you, like a clown, without a background, only a shadow to my na...
Well, luckily enough, there’s Little Transparent and Lazy Fish Girl to keep company...
Thinking of this, Shirakawa Sawahei suddenly felt a pang of sadness. It’s like finding a fellow lazy brother to idle with joy every day, only for that brother to suddenly tell you one day that she’s going back to inherit the family fortune and can’t idle with you anymore...
Wow, if Shirakawa Sawahei didn’t have good ntal resilience, this would have been a direct knockout by the crying monster.
Temples in Neon are generally historical, which ans they’ve accumulated significant wealth and land over a long history. Although they may not appear as wealthy as so conglorates, lacking in liquid assets, they have deeper resources compared to conglorates.
Perhaps one’s family casually produces a kimono that a forr shogun once wore, or a random piece of calligraphy that’s a recognized historical treasure.
No wonder when Tsukimi Yamadori apologized earlier, the tea she gave made Asano Fūsei marvel. With their family’s resources, they indeed don’t lack such things.
"Shirakawa, you seem to be regretting sothing?" The Little Arrogant laughed lightly, "Could it be that you regret not seizing the opportunity to form a close relationship with Tsukimi?"
"Yeah, when you think about it, who wouldn’t feel a bit disappointed missing out on a chance to save 150 years of hard work."
"Who said I was regretful for that reason." Shirakawa Sawahei replied with annoyance, "If I wanted to save 150 years of effort, why didn’t I seize the chance to court Hayakawa?"
"Is Shirakawa flirting with now? Should I be bashful?"
"No, just correcting Hayakawa’s wrong deduction."
"Well, although I shouldn’t say this, getting Shirakawa to conclude that I’m easier to pursue than Tsukimi sakurazawa is indeed my fault."
"I never said that. My point is that the benefits of pursuing Hayakawa surpass those of pursuing Tsukimi." Shirakawa Sawahei added, "And I haven’t assessed the difficulty of pursuing either of you."
"I can swear to that."
