Chapter 100 Shiina and Suoh's Meeting
Natsuo wasn't surprised that his identity as a light novel author and illustrator could be discovered; given the Suoh Yuki family's capabilities, it would be a piece of cake.
It was unexpected that Suoh Yuki was a book fan.
And the reason she came to him for help was actually this!
However, it's not necessarily a bad thing; having common topics makes it easier to get along.
After finishing their crepes, the two went to the furniture store.
Yuki Suoh didn't have trouble making choices and picked out the furniture easily.
Xia Sheng paid, set a delivery time, and the two left.
Natsuo is no longer short of money, so he naturally pays for Suoh Yuki's daily necessities, since she is his cousin.
But the real reason was that he was happy to have a lovely roommate.
He was most looking forward to the unexpected events that would happen if they lived together.
Suo Yuki might be able to help him achieve it, so what's wrong with him spending a little money?
This is called investment.
After leaving the furniture store, the two randomly chose a restaurant for lunch.
Yuki Suo really likes spicy food; she even asked for chili to be added to her beef rice bowl.
Beef rice bowl with chili peppers?
The shop assistants were dumbfounded, but the customer is always right, so they did as instructed.
Xia Sheng ordered the regular omelet rice, which he had never tried before but had always been interested in.
But after eating it, I found it wasn't very good.
It's possible that the maid didn't cast a magic spell to make the food taste better, or it's possible that the restaurant's cooking skills are just not good enough.
But the regular kind is edible.
"Cousin, do you need me to cast a spell on you?" Suoh Yuki, who was enjoying her meal, noticed Natsuo's bland expression, understood the situation, and asked with a grin.
"Forget it, we're outside." Xia Sheng shook his head and refused.
"Oh, so it'll be fine at home then, right?"
"If you can make omelet rice," Suoh Yuki said enthusiastically. "Hmph~ Cousin, are you underestimating me? I do know a little bit of cooking~ I'll make you omelet rice tonight! I'll even use my magic to make it taste better!"
"Really? Then I'll be looking forward to it."
"I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Suoh Yuki's personality suddenly became more positive and lively, and Natsuo couldn't even remember when it started.
Anyway, she's lost the reserve and ladylike demeanor she had when we first met.
Is it because the two of them have become more familiar with each other?
He did indeed prefer Suoh Yuki to be like this; if she were too quiet and ladylike, she would seem too aloof.
After dinner, the two went to the supermarket to buy Suoh Yuki's toiletries and groceries.
Yuki Suo can cook, and tonight she plans to show off her skills as a way of thanking Natsuo for taking her in.
After buying their things, the two of them each carried two bags and went home.
Back home, Natsuo went to his room to start writing, while Suoh Yuki tidied up the room by herself.
It's not appropriate for him to help in a girl's room.
He wouldn't mind helping if Suoh Yuki invited him, but unfortunately he didn't.
During this time, Natsumi was not disturbed by Suoh Yuki until the afternoon when the furniture store called to inform him that the items had been delivered.
Xia Sheng saved the document, left the room, and went to Suo Yuki's room to knock on the door.
"My cousin Suoh."
"Cousin, what's wrong?" The door opened, and Suoh Yuki, who had changed into casual clothes, came out.
She was only wearing a t-shirt and shorts, which made her look particularly relaxed.
"The furniture has arrived. I'll go downstairs to meet them. Get ready."
"No problem, there's nothing wrong with my room, it's all tidied up."
"Okay then." Xia Sheng nodded with relief and turned to leave.
The main items were two tables and a wardrobe, and there were only two staff members present.
Xia Sheng didn't help; he could have moved it all by himself, but it was someone else's job, and there was nothing he could do to interfere.
Twice a day... Xia Sheng waited at the door, and soon the things were all moved.
Because of the quiet, the door to Shiina Mahiru's house slowly opened, and she peeked out, just in time to see two staff members getting into the elevator and leaving.
This floor is reserved for only her and Xia Sheng's families.
Shiina Mahiru looked towards Natsuo's house and met his gaze.
"Mahiru, are you alright?" Natsuo asked as he approached her.
"It's not that easy... What's going on at your house?" Shiina Mahiru changed the subject and asked softly.
"The furniture store's delivery service just now."
"Furniture City?"
"I almost forgot to tell you, my cousin is coming to stay here for a while, so I bought her some furniture," Xia Sheng explained.
"Do you have a cousin?" Shiina Mahiru asked in surprise.
"You know my mom's relatives too."
"Do I know him?"
"The freshman representative at today's opening ceremony is named Suo Yuki."
"Suoh Yuki?" Shiina Mahiru paused for a moment, looking at him uncertainly.
"Is she your cousin?"
"Yes, shall we go and get to know them?"
"I.-
"Cousin, come help me... Oh, who is this?" At this moment, Suoh Yuki came out of the room.
"Cousin Suoh, let me introduce you. Her name is Shiina Mahiru, and she's your senior."
"Hello, Shiina-senpai. I'm Suo Yuki, my cousin's cousin. I hope you'll take care of me in the future." Suo Yuki walked over and politely bowed slightly to Shiina Mahiru.
She reverted to her former self as a well-mannered young lady.
"Hello..." Shiina Mahiru looked Suo Yuki up and down and nodded slightly in response.
During the opening ceremony, she didn't pay much attention to Yuki Suoh, since she wasn't in the mood. Only now did she realize that the other girl was cute and elegant, a true beauty.
Even though the clothes he wore were very simple.
Is she Xia Sheng's cousin?
"Cousin Suoh, what did you need me for?" Natsumi asked.
"Oh, I'd like to rearrange the wardrobe and desk. Could you help me move them?" Suoh Yuki asked politely.
"It's nothing... Mahiru, I'll go help her now."
"OK."
After watching the two return to their room, Shiina Mahiru remained standing there, lost in thought.
Is Xia Sheng going to live with this beautiful girl from now on?
Although she is my cousin.
But living together as a single man and woman, and with her only cousin... Shiina Mahiru is a little worried.
However, she suddenly remembered something: when did Xia Sheng start calling her by her name?
Natsuo was unaware of Shiina Mahiru's worries. After helping Suo Yuki easily arrange the furniture, he prepared to leave.
"Cousin, wait a minute~" Suoh Yuki's tone became casual again.
"What's wrong?"
"That Shiina-senpai was really pretty, was she my cousin's girlfriend?" Suoh Yuki raised an eyebrow, her expression teasing.
"I'm still single," Xia Sheng replied, shaking his head.
"So, your cousin doesn't have feelings for her?"
"This is none of your business," Xia Sheng said irritably, flicking her forehead before walking out the door.
"Wait, cousin."
"Is there anything else?" Xia Sheng turned to look at her.
"Cousin, just call me by my name from now on. We are cousins after all."
"Okay, there's hope then."
"Mmm!" Suoh Yuki nodded in satisfaction.
"Hurry up and get ready, I'm really looking forward to your omelet rice."
"No problem!" Suoh Yuki gave a playful salute.
Xia Sheng shook his head and went back to his room to continue writing.
In the evening, Suoh Yuki tidied up the room and prepared to cook dinner.
Xia Sheng was bored, so he sat in the living room watching her demonstrate her cooking skills.
I must say, Yuki Suo actually looks quite convincing in an apron. At such a young age, she already has the air of a housewife.
No one dislikes a young, petite housewife.
Natsumi kept watching her cook, and he lost all interest in chatting with Yui.
ding dong~
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Xia Sheng got up to open the door.
Outside the door stood the pretty Shiina Mahiru.
"Mahiru, what's wrong?"
"Have you had dinner yet? If not, I can cook more..." Shiina Mahiru asked, tilting her head as she heard the sounds coming from inside.
"Is this... your cousin cooking?"
"Yes, she said she wanted to show me her cooking skills," Xia Sheng replied truthfully.
"In that case, it seems I don't need to do it..." Shiina Mahiru's eyes flickered, and her expression showed obvious disappointment. She turned to leave.
Xia quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back: "Who said you don't need to do it?"
"What do you mean?" Shiina Mahiru looked at him in confusion.
"You forgot, I have a big appetite, and I'll always need you."
