"Bai Ye, do you want to help?"
"If you want to eat quickly, stay in the living room."
"oh oh!"
Eriri returned to the living room, shaking her twin ponytails, sniffing the lunch box, and checking the temperature of the electric hot pot with her hand. Her mood had visibly improved.
"The pot is hot, Bai Ye, hurry up!"
"It's coming, it's coming. Why are you rushing me?"
Bai Ye brought the mixed batter to the living room, slid the pan with butter, and then took the spatula handed to him by Ying Lili.
"Know how to cooperate and start eating early."
"When it comes to food, Yinglili, you're still reliable."
Eriri was kneeling on the cushion, supporting herself on the floor with her hands, greedily sniffing the aroma of melted butter. Upon hearing this, she raised her head and bared her teeth to express her dissatisfaction, her posture just like a little golden retriever.
"Hmph—I'm reliable in other aspects too, okay!"
"Yes, yes—thank you for your hard work on the forum."
Bai Ye saw through the desire deep in her eyes, and used his free right hand to stroke her little head, playing with her soft golden hair along the flow, and finally held her face and kissed her forehead.
"Raising" Eriri may seem simple, but it's not just about feeding her stomach, it's also about feeding her spirit.
I still remember that when I went to Sawamura's house on Monday, the drawings on Eriri's desk were enough to show her desire for recognition.
In one night, the drawing was completed from scratch.
It's like asking for a reward for helping out now, and a kiss on the forehead is more effective than a kiss on the lips. This is a recognition of her status and ability in the "Food Handbook" club.
A blush gradually crept up the girl's pretty face. Before she could hide the gleaming blue eyes, the familiar arrogance came out with the pursed cherry lips.
"What are you doing... kissing people casually again, are you a kissing maniac?"
I am a kissing maniac, and Eriri, you are a kiss-seeking maniac.
I've never seen anyone who loves to be patted on the head more than you.
"No... I was just lamenting that I can be considered a person who has both a cat and a dog."
“Die! Ouch!”
There were two small canine tooth marks on the shoulder. Bai Ye blew on them with heartache, scooped up the fragrant dough from the hot plate, and used his remaining hand to cover Ying Lili's teeth.
"Wait—let's take a look at today's results before we eat."
"You idiot, you just keep me in suspense." Eriri reluctantly picked up her laptop and logged into the forum. "Look, I don't think anything happened. The post is just there, so that's all."
Bai Ye had expected that the situation had not changed much, otherwise Ying Lili would have brought it up when she returned home.
The posts published by Fuzugawa Bunko and Kasumi Shiko were pinned high up, with the bright red font standing out.
He already knew the content of the post, and when he pulled it to the comment section, everyone was either sighing, sighing helplessly, or angrily criticizing Kasumigaoka's action of admitting her boyfriend, which vividly displayed the various aspects of life.
"Kasumigaoka is so brave to admit it. I thought she would handle her boyfriend's matter coldly. I really don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing."
"Shiyu's personality has always been like this."
"Don't you find it strange that you said this, Bai Ye? Look at the comments section, they're all in an uproar. There are so many little essays flying around saying that you've made Kasumigaoka into someone you can't mess with."
Having said that, Bai Ye felt that the direction of the forum was gradually changing in a direction that was favorable to him.
Many of the most highly praised comments were credited for this. The short essay, with its unique perspective, explained the difficulties faced by Teacher Kasumigaoka and her desire for recognition, winning everyone's empathy.
"I can tell it's Shiyu's work at first glance. There are so many small versions."
"That's right."
Eriri held the back of her head with her hands, looked up at the snow-white ceiling, and a myriad of thoughts flowed through her eyes.
"Kasumigaoka, she has really changed."
PS: Reward progress report 63 (4346/10000), 6 updates are owed, this is a normal update.
Thanks to [Dian Niang I Hate You] for the 3+3 spicy strips and [Saang Prison] for the 3+3 spicy strips.
There are too many things to do at the end of the year. I am really sorry for not updating yesterday. I will try to write the updates I owe you when I am free this Saturday and Sunday.
Also, the weather suddenly turned cold, and I have a headache tonight, which is annoying.
Chapter 501: Lonely and lonely night does not exist!
After a simple dinner, Kato Megumi suggested leaving.
Bai Ye sent her downstairs and was about to drive her back on his scooter when Kato Megumi called him from behind.
"Bai Yejun, I can go back by myself. I can still catch the last bus now."
Compared with previous club gatherings during school, Kato Megumi did not return home late today, but the record for the time she stayed outside was broken again.
Last time I went home before dinner, and today I went home after dinner.
Thanks to the double guarantee of the Sawamura family and Bai Ye's business license, her family did not doubt the source and authenticity of her late return home and her monthly salary of 150,000, and they praised the laptop she bought at her own expense.
When Kato Megumi turned around, Bai Ye called her and handed her the envelope.
"Xiaohui, this is your salary for this month."
Kato Megumi took the envelope, her expression didn't change much, but a hint of doubt appeared between her eyebrows.
"Is today the payday? I remember it was on the 25th last month, so it seemed like a week early?"
It was common knowledge that the society was short of funds. Bai Ye understood that even if he told everyone that their wages were in arrears, everyone would agree, and at most he would get a scolding that would make him laugh and cry.
But he has his own persistence and needs to have his own bottom line in this writing "society", read as "harem".
It is impossible to predict the long-term impact of "wage arrears" on the community at the moment, but it is known that it is a bad thing in the general public's perception, so the best way to deal with it is not to start this problem.
Seeing Kato Megumi accept the envelope directly, Bai Ye felt relieved.
It makes you look good but makes you lose money.
"Because I'm worried..." A playful smile appeared on his face. "The workload these past two days has been typical of office workers. In order to prevent Xiaohui from finding a reason to resign, I, a black-hearted boss, have no choice but to pay her salary first."
Kato Megumi tilted her head, her eyes becoming even more confused.
"If the general practice to retain me is to withhold my salary, then I will keep working in the hope of getting paid."
Bai Ye was stunned.
"It seems to make sense... No!"
Bai Ye understood the other party's "evil intentions" and his eyes were instantly filled with fear.
"Xiaohui, you actually want to use this method to stir up resentment between Shiyu and Eriri. As long as I am killed, you can legitimately take over my property. This is terrible... too terrible (?ó﹏ò?)"
Just ignore the detail that you need to get married to inherit the family property.
"Hey, have you been noticed?"
A look of surprise appeared on Kato Megumi's unchanging face, and her slightly raised eyebrows concealed the tenderness that overflowed in her eyes.
"What a shame! In this case, I'll just have to work harder from now on~~"
"That's right, Xiaohui, don't play too much during school days. It's not good for your body and mind."
"But if I play games alone, school days are the most fun..."
"Let's play together later! I have countless 18... No! It's a much more interesting and good game!"
After making an appointment with Kato Megumi to meet tomorrow at noon, Bai Ye returned to the room and was met with Eriri's surprised gaze.
"Bai Ye, did you go swimming?"
"Where can I find a swimming pool in this pitch-black place?"
"Then why are you like you were fished out of water?"
"Just a trip to hell and back."
……
Bai Ye took a comfortable hot bath and returned to the living room to see Eriri who was concentrating on painting.
Some things don't need to be explained too clearly. When Eriri came here today, he predicted what would happen tonight.
Especially since Eriri is very thin-skinned when it comes to sex, it's best to retain some mystery.
"Aren't you going to take a shower?"
"I showered in the evening." Eriri tilted her head back, her twin ponytails draped over the back of the chair. "I was planning on taking a nice bath, but once I got into the bathroom I realized there wasn't a bathtub. The bed had already been moved, so why not add a bathtub?"
"Replacing the bathtub? Hey, you thought you were buying a tub? How can it be as easy as eating or drinking water?"
"A bathtub is just a large tub."
"Can you even lift the bathtub?!"
Replacing a bathtub is not something you can do just by having money right now, and spending money to fake a bathtub in a house that doesn't belong to you is a loss no matter how you think about it.
Because Bai Ye didn't have the habit of taking a bath in China, he didn't care whether there was a bathtub when he came to Neon to choose a house. This apartment happened to not have a bathtub, but instead had a more spacious living room and kitchen.
If he had anticipated this day two years ago, he would have rented a large house with a bathtub large enough to accommodate several people.
Bai Ye took out an envelope from the closet and handed it to Eriri.
"What is this? Where's the restaurant coupon?"
"Your restaurant coupons are enclosed in envelopes, and they're so thick?"
"I don't have a restaurant at home." Ying Lili said stubbornly.
She knew what was in the envelope, which was why she felt so overwhelmed the moment she saw it.
Although she is always teased by Kasumigaoka as a "useless lady", she is actually a real noble lady and has the best knowledge in this area.
"How much is in it?"
"This month's salary plus the comic convention income is almost 100 million yuan."
"What if I suddenly don't want to collect it?"
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that there would be a day when he would be rejected by the foodie Li.
"Don't you want to buy Jump, snacks, and pay back your aunt's tablet loan? Stop looking so worried. A silly mascot is the best for you."
Surprisingly, this time Eriri didn't get angry at being called a "mascot" and her expression remained normal.
"I don't want to accept it because I want to buy JUMP."
"What's going on in your head?" Bai Ye moved a chair and sat in front of her.
"Think about it, one million seems like a lot, but it's not too much either. I have to buy so many comics, novels, figurines, games, and snacks every month. I don't think one million will last long."
Eriri pushed up her non-existent glasses, and a shrewd look flashed in her azure eyes.
"You should always plan ahead. I'll leave 100 million yuan with you. I'll charge you 10 yuan in interest every month. You'll also be responsible for the snacks. Don't feel like you're losing out. Look, I'm the campus beauty of Fengzhiqi after all. There are many boys who want to flatter me, but they don't stand a chance. You should be content with what you have. Do you understand?"
Bai Ye couldn't help laughing at Eriri's words which were completely out of character.
Because this is the only way to hide his feelings.
"I have a deposit of 100 million yuan, and I collect 10 yuan every month as interest. You've made a good calculation, Eriri. You won't starve anywhere."
"Of course!" Eriri raised her little head. "Financial management isn't something you can do easily! If you admire me, I'll give you some delicious snacks and teach you some secrets. I guarantee you'll make a fortune, Bai Ye."
"Okay, since you're willing to teach me, Eriri, I'll..."
Bai Ye bent down, rustled a little, and then put the snack to Ying Lili's mouth.
The girl with twin ponytails covered her face with her hands, her cheeks looking like a ripe apple.
"I didn't say I wanted to eat this... wuwu——"

There will be more in the evening
Chapter 502: Half asleep and half awake, welcoming the dream girl
The reason why a beautiful dream is a beautiful dream is that, first, it accomplishes unrealized things, and second, it allows us to relive unforgettable beauty.
Bai Ye felt like he was half asleep and half awake. He was awake because he remembered that it was Eriri who accompanied him last night, and he was dreaming because he couldn't understand why the girl in his arms was so soft and insubstantial.
