Chapter 778: Love of Lawyer Eri Kisaki
After some communication, the misunderstanding was resolved.
It turns out that the reason why Xiaolan felt that Kisaki Eri was a little strange today was because the blue cat Xiaonan was sick. For a barrister who likes to place his emotions on pets, this is a very serious matter.
She was worried that her relationship with someone would end in failure, just like the sick blue cat.
That's why I'm so irritable today and my emotions are more sensitive than usual.
After finding out the truth, Xiaolan's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye: "So, so, mom, you are not..."
"of course not!"
Fei Yingli was embarrassed and angry, "What do you think I'm doing?"
Xiaolan lowered her head in shame: "I thought my mother had a new love..."
"You..." Feiying was so angry that she couldn't speak. She caught a glimpse of Hanyu Nan's expression of trying not to laugh, and she felt even more ashamed and angry.
In the awkward silence, Hanyu Kusunoki coughed lightly and said, "How about... we eat first?"
Hibiki glared at him: "You knew that a long time ago, didn't you?"
Hanyu Kusunoki blinked innocently: "I just think it's not polite to follow my mother..."
"Nan!" Xiaolan punched him in shame and anger, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you." Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and put his arm around her shoulders, "But..."
He looked at Hibiki Eri and said meaningfully, "Aunt Eri really should consider her personal issues."
Hibiki Eri's heart skipped a beat: "What nonsense..."
"That's right!" Xiaolan suddenly took Hanyu Nan's arm and looked up proudly, "If mom wants to find someone, she has to find someone like Nan!"
Fei Yingli: "..."
Hanyu Kusunoki: “…”
This silly girl, does she know what she is talking about?
But the two of them didn't know that Xiaolan had other thoughts in her mind at this time.
She said that on purpose.
She is very clear about how excellent her boyfriend is.
It can be said that there is no other man in this world who is better than Nan. Apart from being a little fickle, he has no shortcomings.
With such high requirements, my mother naturally couldn’t find it.
This way, she can always have her mother all to herself!
Thinking of this, Xiaolan hummed with pride in her heart ~ People say that I am stupid, but most of the time, this girl is very smart.
……
Kisaragi Eri really didn't see through her daughter's little thoughts.
She just thought that her daughter simply thought that Hanyu Kusunoki was excellent, so she made such remarks, and she did not realize that Xiaolan had a little idea in her heart that she wanted to monopolize her mother.
Hanyu Kusunoki seemed to be thinking about it, but he certainly wouldn't say it out loud. After all, this was a good thing for him in a sense.
Coming out of the pet cafe, Xiaolan was still mumbling: "Mom, I'm not against you finding a new partner, but at least he has to be as good as Nan..."
Kisaki Eri blushed and said nothing.
Hanyu Nan looked at the similar profiles of the mother and daughter, one youthful and lively, the other mature and elegant, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose slightly.
It seems... we are one step closer to our goal.
"Mom, are you listening to me?" Seeing that her mother didn't respond, Xiaolan couldn't help but pout and raised her hand to wave in front of Kisaki Eri, trying to get her attention.
The barrister came to her senses at this moment. When she looked up, she noticed the faint smile on someone's mouth. Her eyelids twitched for no reason. She felt that her dignity as an elder was challenged.
After all, I am their mother and mother-in-law.
"Xiaolan, Xiaonan..."
"Hmm? What's wrong, mother-in-law?"
"Mom, do you also think what I said makes sense?"
"Hehe~" Hibiki Eri suddenly chuckled and said slowly: "It's nothing, I just think that since it's rare for you two to come to see me, then don't go out to eat. Let's go home and eat. I will cook a big meal for you personally."
As she spoke, she deliberately emphasized the word "feast".
Hanyu Kusunoki: “…”
Xiaolan: “?!!”
"Mom, I suddenly remembered that Sonoko asked me to go shopping!" Xiaolan grabbed Hanyu Nan's wrist, turned around and was about to run, saying very quickly: "We'll come to see you another day!"
"Stop." Hibiki pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, and the lenses reflected a cold light. "It's a rare opportunity for you to come here, how can you leave without having a meal?"
Hanyu Nan felt Xiaolan's grip on his hand tighten instantly. He looked down and saw that the girl's face was pale and beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead, as if she had heard some horror story.
"Aunt Eri," Hanyu Kusunoki forced a smile, "Actually, we..."
"Nan-chan," Ki Eri interrupted him, a dangerous smile on her lips, "Didn't you just say that it was an honor for you to have lunch with your 'mother-in-law'?"
The "mother-in-law" bit very hard, with an obvious threat.
At this moment, Hanyu Kusunoki only felt a chill on his back.
He glanced at Xiaolan secretly and found that the girl's eyes were wandering, and she was ready to abandon him and run for her life at any time.
The barrister’s cooking skills are just like her battle record – undefeated!
The only difference is that one has never lost in court, and the other has never lost in cooking, but in a terrifying way.
No one can finish a meal cooked by the Undefeated Queen herself intact. Every attempt is like a thrilling adventure, and the result is often "unforgettable".
"Um..." Hanyu Kusunoki tried to struggle, "How about we go to a restaurant to eat? It's my treat."
"No need to bother." Hibiki took out the key from her bag, and her smile became more gentle. But in the eyes of Hanyu Kusunoki and Xiaolan, this smile was like the smile of a devil. "I just learned a few new dishes recently, and it's a good opportunity for you to try them."
"New, new dishes?!" Xiaolan's voice was out of tune, and the horrible memories of being dominated by her mother's cooking flashed through her mind - the unidentified object that was as black as charcoal but claimed to be "steamed fish", and the bowl of "vegetable soup" that emitted a strange green light...
"Let's go." Hibiki Eri turned and headed for the parking lot, "My car is right in front."
Xiaolan and Hanyu Kusunoki looked at each other and saw despair in each other's eyes.
"Nan..." Xiaolan pleaded softly, "Think of a way..."
Hanyu Nan took a deep breath and suddenly covered his stomach: "Ouch! My stomach hurts! Maybe I ate something bad this morning..."
Without even turning her head, Hibiki said, "I have stomach medicine at home, it works very well."
"I suddenly remembered that the gas at home was not turned off!"
“The best fire chief I know.”
"me..."
"What do you mean by 'I'? Nan, run!"
Without any hesitation, Xiaolan grabbed Hanyu Nan's hand, turned around and ran, so fast that it seemed as if some ferocious beast was chasing them from behind.
