Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Steamed Oyster Slices with 4 Sauces

"No way." Shirakawa Sawahei pouted, "She and I are just friends."

"Still, it’s not just any friendship, right? Childhood friends, perhaps? I often see this setup in anime." The driver uncle reminisced, "Helping a childhood friend move house under the watchful eyes of your parents, such a nostalgic scene..."

Shirakawa Sawahei: "..."

Who would’ve thought that the driver uncle was actually a true-blue otaku.

"She and I aren’t childhood friends; we only met in high school."

"Ah, then it’s more like a fateful encounter," the driver uncle reverently said. "That’s the trait of the main girl..."

"...You should focus on driving..."

He actively broke off the conversation with this otaku to prevent his face from getting any darker. The rest of the ride was silent, and the car soon arrived at the compensation apartment of the landlord’s granny.

A hotel-style apartment, two stories high, with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows offering an extreme panoramic view, allowing the homeowner to overlook the whole city. The interior decor of the apartment was quite simple and elegant, with lush green plants thriving in the corners. The arrangement of sofas and tables gave off a warm feeling, as if crafted by a professional interior designer.

It seemed a bit like one of those mansions from "The Quintessential Quintuplets"...

Upon entering, Shirakawa Sawahei realized the size of this apartment—far beyond his expectations—he silently sighed, thinking about how much he owes to the kindness of the landlord granny.

If rented to others, the granny could certainly earn much more money.

Oh well, he’ll find a way to repay her kindness someday.

After tossing a small koala hanging on him onto the sofa, Shirakawa Sawahei began calling the moving company’s staff to bring in all the luggage.

Ise Yu Yuzhijin was dazed by the toss and felt bewildered, but she didn’t have the energy to argue with Shirakawa Sawahei and soon fell asleep on the moon-white sofa.

By the time she woke up, it was already around one or two in the afternoon.

People who pull all-nighters often can’t sleep for long. The lazy girl got up and looked around, only to see Shirakawa Sawahei sitting at the dining table in the distance, eating an omurice delivery.

He glanced at Ise Yu and asked, "Awake?"

"Let’s eat."

"Oh...Shirakawa, have the moving company people left already?"

"They’ve been busy all morning; are they supposed to stay for dinner?" Shirakawa Sawahei paused, "Your stuff has all been moved to your room, which is the one in the middle."

"Oh oh...Shirakawa, what are you eating?"

"Omurice."

"Is it good?"

Shirakawa Sawahei gave her a sidelong glance, "Your portion is in the kitchen; don’t think about stealing mine."

"No way~ It’s normal to care about what my roommate is eating..." Ise Yu cheerfully said, "Where are the chopsticks?"

"Over there."

"Ah~ The fridge is so empty, it feels so insecure...Shirakawa, let’s go shopping later."

Shirakawa Sawahei wiped his mouth and nodded, "Even though my sense of security is not derived from the fridge, we do need to buy some essential daily necessities."

"Right, toothbrushes, towels, shampoo, body wash...a new home should bring a new atmosphere! Finally, I don’t have to put up with my mom’s tacky taste! I’ve decided! I’ll choose the bath soap scent I like!"

"And maybe we should also visit the neighbors..."

"But this apartment has one unit per floor, we don’t have neighbors next door...the granny really helped us out, renting such a large apartment at a not-so-expensive price! What a deal!"

"..."

"We should check out the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, just to have a contact."

The lazy girl nodded upon hearing this, quickened her pace of eating, and spent a few more hours simply arranging her things in her room.

"We should take our time with fine decorations! Right now, it’s most important to shop for snacks!"

Ise Yu clapped her hands and asked, "Shirakawa, is the internet here set up already? Is there WiFi?"

"It’s set up."

"That’s good..." The lazy girl said contentedly, "Without the internet, I wouldn’t be able to work, and summer comic is approaching; I can’t mess up at this crucial time!"

"...What does your work have to do with the internet?" Shirakawa Sawahei sneered, "Some people even go to the mountains for inspiration to draw."

"You can’t say it like that! Even though drawing doesn’t require the internet that much, I need the internet during breaks to comfort my empty heart~"

"..."

He was too lazy to listen to this lv4 lazy bum discussing her lazy theories. Seeing that she was ready, he just grabbed the girl and headed out, shopping for daily necessities.

"Shirakawa! This is delicious, try some!"

"Look quickly! Shirakawa, that’s a trending doll! They actually sell it here. Damn, my room can’t fit any more dolls...Shirakawa, you..."

"No way, I’m not putting silly dolls in my room."

"What’s that...they’re obviously cute...Hey! Shirakawa! Over there, there’s good stuff! Hurry..."

As soon as they entered the supermarket, Ise Yu couldn’t suppress her excitement and completely let herself go. She dragged Shirakawa Sawahei along, strolling joyfully.

It was still early, and there was some time left before the supermarket rush hour. Shirakawa Sawahei pushed the cart from behind while the lazy girl in front pondered over odd issues like whether to buy large or small bottles of shampoo. Occasionally, she would stop Shirakawa Sawahei, who was trying to shake her off, and ask about the relationship between towel texture and skincare.

The cute little Ise Yu even pretended to linger in the discount area for a while, humming the Doraemon theme song softly while picking discounted goods, seemingly indicating she was calculating costs independently from her parents. But after a moment, Shirakawa Sawahei heartlessly dragged her away.

To any passerby, aside from the occasional expression of speechlessness from the boy, this pair seemed like a long-term couple. The lively and adorable girl paired with the cool and handsome boy quickly caught the eyes of many.

Another house move, hoping the next time I move, it will be when I own my own house in this city.

"How much longer are you going to shop?"

"Buy a bit more~ It’s a rare chance to live independently!"

"Enough, no matter how happy you are, there has to be a limit. Get rid of the ten bottles of shampoo in your basket!"

"Nani! I can’t give any of these up. They are brands and scents I carefully chose...it’s like choosing between the palm or back of your hand, totally unable to decide..."

Upon hearing this, Shirakawa Sawahei coldly replied, "If they can’t be given up, then I’ll have to give you up..."

"..."

Hearing this, the lazy girl sensibly emptied the excess shampoo in her basket and quietly followed Shirakawa Sawahei.

Hmph, if I don’t buy it here, I’ll just buy it on Amazon later...

Ise Yu Yuzhijin whispered to herself, following Shirakawa Sawahei back home with bags full of goods.

"Ah...so exhausted...Shirakawa, when are we visiting the neighbors?"

Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at her; she seemed still not out of the moving excitement, even though she complained about being tired, she was still full of energy.

He should have helped her carry fewer things earlier.

"We have class tomorrow, let’s go there after dinner."

"Great! I’ll cook!"

Excitedly, Ise Yu Yuzhijin took on the cooking task, but Shirakawa Sawahei reached out to stop her.

"Let’s order delivery instead."

"??? Why! One of my values in this home is to cook, you know? You’re stripping away my life’s worth?"

"Your life’s worth is too easily stripped away." Shirakawa Sawahei mercilessly retorted, "You only know how to make omurice, but I had it for lunch."

"For dinner, I want something not egg-related, understood?"

Ise Yu Yuzhijin was clearly not ready to give up her life’s worth: "How about I use ketchup to write a heart shape for you? I learned this from maid cafes! I even bought ketchup earlier!"

"Don’t think a cute girl drawing a heart on omurice and writing a word can fool me." Shirakawa Sawahei disdainfully replied, "I’m not some otaku, I’m not that easily fooled."
