I am a businessman from all over the world, not a profiteer!

Shoko Toyokawa looked at it with curiosity. Although Xingyun said that they were small robots, they looked like cute elves in fairy tales.

"Chirp."

Manjiu nodded and then led the way for Toyokawa Shoko.

After taking the elevator to the restaurant floor, Shoko Toyokawa was attracted by the fragrance and felt a strong hunger in her stomach.

"Just in time, the meal is ready. It's plain noodles with tempura. I wonder if it suits your taste."

Xingyun took off his apron as he spoke. With the help of Wang Quan, his cooking skills had undoubtedly reached the level where he could make glowing dishes!

It was just that creating glowing food in this world was somewhat shocking, and he wasn't ready to reveal his identity to Toyokawa Shoko so soon...

When Toyokawa Shoko saw the chopsticks handed to her by Xingyun, her expression froze for a moment, and then she reacted and took them.

"Thanks……"

"So you can thank me honestly?"

Xingyun looked at Toyokawa Shoko curiously. She had lost all her previous sharpness and had become very soft and gentle.

It seems his knocking worked?

"...I'm sorry for saying so many self-righteous things to you earlier. I calmed down in the bathroom."

Toyokawa Shoko took the initiative to apologize to Xingyun. Not to mention what happened before, the fact that he was willing to cook for her was already something worth being grateful for.

After all, in Japan, not many men are willing to cook for women.

"It's okay. A good child is one who can correct his mistakes."

Xingyun reached out and rubbed Toyokawa Shoko's hair, feeling it was still a little wet. He instantly realized that this was because there was no hair dryer in the locker room.

In order to dry her hair, she probably used the towel to wipe it for a long time...

"You eat first, I'll help you dry your hair."

Xingyun walked to the cabinet next to her, pretended to take out a battery-powered hair dryer and comb from the System Mall, walked behind her to help blow dry her hair, and at the same time used a comb to help comb her hair carefully.

"Um... I'll do it myself. I won't bother you."

"It's okay. You haven't eaten anything today, right? You should eat first."

Shoko Toyokawa was about to retort that she had actually eaten half a piece of bread in the morning, but when she thought about what was going to happen next, she decided to obey Xingyun.

Maybe this way he will be gentler to me in the future.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Xingyun thought that she had finally learned to accept other people's kindness. He happily helped her comb her silky blue hair and took out two hairbands to help her restore her hairstyle.

Shoko Toyokawa felt Xingyun's fingers sliding through her hair, and his movements of combing her hair were very gentle and skillful.

She couldn't help but recall the scene of her mother combing her hair...

When her mother was still alive, she would also comb her hair gently like this.

"Noodles don't taste good when they're cold, eat them while they're hot."

"kindness."

Shoko Toyokawa picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks, blew on it and put it into her mouth. The perfect seasoning instantly whetted her appetite.

What delicious noodles, even better than the ones she had at Toyokawa's house!

The overall taste of the noodles was very soft, and the temperature made her feel warm but not hot enough to burn her mouth, which made Toyokawa Shoko move her chopsticks faster and faster. She even couldn't help but hold up the edge of the bowl and drink a few sips of the delicious noodle soup.

"Would you like another bowl?"

“Please…”

Toyokawa Shoko lowered her head and whispered that she had wanted to decline, but the deliciousness of this bowl of noodles made her unable to help but speak out her feelings.

"Well, wait a few minutes. Let's eat some tempura first."

Feeling him rubbing her head a few times, Shoko Toyokawa watched him pick up the apron on the chair next to him and put it on, then walked into the kitchen.

"He seems to be a gentle person..."

Shoko Toyokawa placed her hand on her warm abdomen, and her previously cold body was now warm.

At some point, she wasn't as nervous as before.

After eating another bowl of plain noodles, Toyokawa Shoko wiped the soup from the corner of her mouth with a tissue and looked at Xingyun to express her gratitude.

"Thank you for the treat. This is the most delicious meal I have ever had."

"As long as you like it, it's getting late, and it's almost time to rest. Staying up late is a girl's enemy!"

When she heard the word "rest", a trace of nervousness flashed across Toyokawa Shoko's face, but she quickly suppressed her inner uneasiness and showed a firm look.

"I understand."

"Well! Then follow me."

Xingyun looked at the very obedient Xiangzi and felt more and more sorry for the child. Such an obedient and good child, but it was a pity that he had such a useless father.

Taking Toyokawa Shoko back to the lounge floor, the room for people to rest had already been completed thanks to the efforts of the barbarians.

Xingyun walked into the room, looked around at the environment, and nodded with satisfaction.

"The decoration here is pretty good, so why don't you sleep here today, and I'll be next door...?!"

As he was about to leave the room, he heard a door closing behind him. He turned his head in confusion and saw Toyokawa Shoko unbuttoning her skirt.

"???"

"Ah, did you ask me to help you take it off? I'm sorry, I don't have any experience in this area, so I don't know..."

Toyokawa Shoko looked at Xingyun cautiously, the dim light in the room helping to hide the blush on her cheeks.

Xingyun was stunned by this scene, and his brain instantly understood why she was so soft and sticky.

Did she think that contract was that kind of deal?!

"Your parents...?! Forget it, Ms. Toyokawa Shoko, just sit here and don't even think about sleeping tonight!"

Xingyun's face was red at this time. Don't get me wrong, he was just angry!

"A, a whole night? I...I'll try my best!"

"You try your best!"

Xingyun couldn't stand it any longer and knocked her forehead. Who on earth did she think she was?!

"Woo!"

Toyokawa Shoko covered her forehead with her hands, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she looked at Xingyun timidly.

"I just hired you as the band's manager, what on earth are you thinking about?!"

"Eh?"

Shoko Toyokawa couldn't help but open her eyes wide, and her face became redder than before.

Could it be that she had misunderstood all this? !

"Sit upright on the bed. I'm going to lecture you today! As a girl, you need to learn to love yourself!"

Xingyun looked at Toyokawa Shoko and suddenly felt his blood pressure rising. He wanted to scold her severely to wake her up!

121

Chapter 121 Toyokawa Shoko: Does he like me?

"Do you know you're wrong?"

"understood……"

"What's wrong?"

"I...I shouldn't be so unself-respecting, woo!"

Toyokawa Shoko covered her slightly red forehead and looked at Xingyun with a wronged look on her face.

Although he looked angry at the moment, she did not feel scared in her heart. Instead, she felt close to him.

This feeling, like being scolded by a parent, gave Toyokawa Shoko a sense of warmth of being cared for.

During the three months since she left Toyokawa's house, she encountered obstacles everywhere in society and deeply experienced how cold and ruthless this society is.

It is precisely because of this that Xingyun’s concern at this moment is particularly valuable.

But there is no kindness without reason in this world. Why is Xingyun so good to me?

Judging from Xingyun's financial resources, he might be the one he knew at the Fengchuan family's banquet before.

But with his looks, she shouldn't forget him after just meeting him once...

Could it be that Xingyun was a little fat before, which led to his inferiority complex and he didn't dare to see her, so he just secretly paid attention to her. Now that he has lost weight and become a super handsome guy, he returned to Tokyo to find her, but unexpectedly met her in a down and out state on the street?

It's like fate unfolded...

"dare you laugh?"

Seeing Xiangzi laugh, Xingyun tapped her forehead again.

"I'm sorry...Mr. Xingyun."

"Your mistake was compromising with the bad guys. If someone threatens you with your family, you must not give in no matter what! The best solution for this kind of thing is to call the police! You are the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family, you must learn to use your social status! Your grandfather only drove your father away, he didn't sever ties with you!"

Xingyun preached to Toyokawa Shoko that this is the world view of the girl band, and the moral values of ordinary people are all at an upper-middle level!

Otherwise, a young lady like her who looks strong on the outside but is actually weak on the inside would probably suffer a lot even if someone from the Toyokawa family was secretly watching over her.

However, since he has been taking care of Xiangzi for so long, no one has come to visit him. It seems that the Toyokawa family really did not secretly protect their eldest daughter.

Is the public security level in the girl band world that high?!

"But……"

When the topic of the Toyokawa family came up, Xiangzi subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to refute, but was immediately interrupted by Xingyun!

"No buts! Your father is your family, but your grandfather is not? Have you been back to see your grandfather recently? Your father lost his wife, but your grandfather also lost his beloved daughter! Did you consider your grandfather's feelings when you ran away from home? He is already so old this year!"

Although Xingyun thinks that Xiangzi's grandfather's methods are a bit extreme, Xiangzi's father is indeed a waste, so it's no wonder that he dislikes him.

The guy was obviously still conscious when he smashed the car. He was simply giving up on himself and was heading for jail from the beginning!

That's why Xingyun didn't want Xiangzi to help her father pay off his debts.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Thinking of her grandfather, Shoko Toyokawa lowered her head in frustration. She really didn't consider her grandfather's feelings.

Although Grandpa was very ruthless in his dealings with her father, he was still very kind to her...

"Okay, now that you've realized your mistake, I'll stop preaching. You must be tired, so get a good night's sleep today. I'll wake you up at 8 o'clock tomorrow."

Looking at the girl's soft expression, Xingyun couldn't bear to continue talking. He tapped her forehead lightly with his fingers and then walked out of the room.

"thank you……"

Toyokawa Shoko looked at Xingyun's back with reluctance. She quite enjoyed the feeling of being lectured, which made her feel like "home".

"No need to use honorifics. I'm only two years older than you."

After watching Xingyun close the door casually, Toyokawa Shoko lay on the soft bed. After her tense mind relaxed, she instantly felt a strong sense of sleepiness.

Sleeping in this room without the smell of alcohol, I feel like I can have a good dream tonight...

"Mom...I..."

Recalling her mother's last words of advice, Toyokawa Shoko gradually fell asleep.

Outside the door, the Mangekyō Sharingan flashed in Xingyun's eyes, and the illusion was almost taking effect. He opened the door again and looked at Toyokawa Shoko lying on the quilt in the room, and sighed helplessly.

After covering her with the quilt, Xingyun turned off the lights in the room, looked at the girl with a smile on her lips while she was sleeping, and used his fingers to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"I wish you a sweet dream tonight..."

The next day, Toyokawa Shoko woke up from her dream reluctantly, and a tear rolled down the corner of her eye.

In the dream, her mother did not die of illness, and her father did not become an alcoholic and degenerate. She lived a relaxed and happy life with everyone in the band every day, and even performed at a martial arts hall.

"But why is there no Mr. Xingyun in my dream?"

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Shoko Toyokawa took out her cell phone and checked the time: 7:26.
