Chapter 470 Hurting One's Pride
Chapter 470 Hurting One's Pride
"Isn't Yuko-neechan going to eat?"
Before long, the children, each with a takoyaki, noticed that Yuko had nothing in her hand and began to ask.
She even handed the takoyaki in her hand to Yuko.
"Thank you, but my sister doesn't like it," Yu Zi said with a smile, refusing their offer.
"Mmm, it's really delicious, Yuko, you should try one too." Shinobu, with a piece of meatball in her mouth, forked another piece and brought it to Yuko's lips.
"Try one!"
"Or is Yuko looking down on me?"
Yuko turned her head away and circled around Shinobu Kocho. Hearing what Shinobu said, she still couldn't go against Shinobu's insistence and said helplessly, "Just one."
Shinobu Kocho joked, "You want more, but we don't have any yet~"
"I wish you could think that way." Yu Zi rolled her eyes, brushed the hair behind her ear, and lowered her head slightly to bite the dumpling.
Wow, it looks so good!
Shinobu's eyes were shining. What's going on? Yuuko looks so alluring.
Wait a minute, Yuko is bending down to brush her hair because she's too short, right?
Shinobu's emotions fluctuated rapidly, and she sighed, "How is it? It's delicious, isn't it?"
Yuko was puzzled by her sudden dejected tone, "Does Ren regret giving it to me?"
"That's not true at all." Shinobu Kocho looked at Ikuko's straightened body and sighed again. "You wouldn't understand."
How am I supposed to understand if you don't tell me?
Yuko really wanted to ask that, but she felt that Shinobu Kocho was probably not thinking about anything serious, and was probably just grumbling.
Kanae swallowed a takoyaki, glanced at the two flirting, and then looked down at the few remaining takoyaki in the box.
What's wrong? These takoyaki taste bland now.
"Yuko, I'll forgive you if you eat just one more."
"Hmm? Have I offended you in any way?"
"Ah~"
"Aww."
"..."
Kanae clutched her heart; she understood what that feeling was like.
She now regrets staying behind and being the third wheel when everyone else had left.
If I had known she had made an excuse to leave earlier, things might not have been so easy now...
"Kanae, Kanae..."
Hearing someone call her name, Kanae subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound. Shinazugawa Sanemi, wearing the white and black kimono he had chosen that day and with a deliberately shaved head, stood stiffly in the distance calling her name.
Kanae paused for a moment, then took two quick steps toward Sanemi Shinazugawa, grabbed him, and led him toward the temple fair.
During this time, Sanemi Shinazugawa had no chance to resist at all.
"...Huh?" Xuanmi, who was hiding not far away cheering for his older brother, was completely stunned, then his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. "Huh?!?!"
He clearly wanted to encourage his older brother to go up and greet Ms. Kanae, and then naturally join the group. Why did those two disappear in an instant?
What should he do then?
Should he go to the temple fair alone?
"Hmm? What are you doing here, Genmi?" A cold voice came from behind.
“Miss Yu, Miss Yuko.” Genya turned around awkwardly. “Um, Miss Kanae and my older brother…”
"Oh, you mean those two love idiots?" Yuko looked into the distance, where she could still vaguely see their disheveled figures fleeing. "Let them be."
Xuanmi broke out in a cold sweat. So you think these two people are idiots?
Seeing that he was all alone, Yu Zi extended an invitation: "How about it? Do you want to come with us?"
Shinobu Kocho gently touched her forehead and said that her older sister was an idiot, but Yuuko was too, wasn't she?
She clearly wanted to be alone with Yuko.
Yuko wanted to as well, but she had already promised to take care of Nezuko's younger siblings, so it was inconvenient. Adding Genya wouldn't make a difference.
Moreover, who knows...
Genmiko couldn't understand what the two were thinking, so she nodded in agreement with Yuko's words: "Then I'll take my leave."
After all, he was the one who was abandoned, so naturally he longed to be taken in.
"Is there anything you'd like to eat? It's on me." Yu Zi glanced around and led everyone to the fried noodle stall next door.
sweat!
Are they treating him like a child too?
However, Ms. Yuko is still as kind as ever.
Although she often makes sarcastic remarks to her older brother, to be honest, Yu Zi is really good to people like them. As long as you are a good person, she won't give you a hard time.
Just like Tanjiro.
"That's troublesome." Xuanmi glanced at the children beside the two, scratched his head, and hesitated to refuse. "Who are these children?"
Yu Zi glanced sideways: "Hmm, you can tell at a glance, right?"
Genmi nodded, "Yeah, after all, he's basically..."
"That's right, it's Tanjiro and Kanao's child."
"Pfft~"
Xuanmi almost lost his balance and fell flat on his face.
Are you treating him like an idiot?
"How is this possible?!" Genya exclaimed. "This child is almost as tall as Tanjiro."
"Eek!" Perhaps it was because Genya looked too scary, coupled with his current shouting, that Hanako was so frightened that she hid behind the two of them.
Takeo and Shigeru didn't look too good either.
This guy... is so tall and strong, and looks so fierce, he doesn't seem like a good person.
Shinobu Kocho quickly comforted him, "Don't let his scary appearance fool you, his personality... isn't exactly great either."
Shinobu's face fell; this sudden turn of events almost strained Genya's back.
He was wrong; he shouldn't have followed.
“You can just call him Brother Xuanmi. He’s also a friend of your older brothers and sisters.” Yu Zi smiled and helped Xuanmi out of the awkward situation. “Don’t let his fierce appearance fool you, he’s actually a very nice person.”
Xuanmi breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Miss Yuko would also take a different turn like Miss Ren.
Upon hearing that they were friends of their older siblings, the four of them were not so afraid anymore.
How could my older brother and sister's friends be bad people?
“Brother Xuanmi”.
"Hmm, want some fried noodles? It's on me." Hearing this address, Xuanmi couldn't help but think of his younger siblings. His eyes dimmed for a moment, then he pulled out his wallet and said with great enthusiasm.
"?" Yuko asked Shinobu Kocho in a low voice, "Is it really necessary to go to such lengths to buy a bowl of fried noodles?"
Shinobu Kocho leaned in quietly and said, "Try to understand. A little adult who just got his allowance always wants to show off in front of his younger siblings."
"We shouldn't expose him; it will hurt his self-esteem."
Xuanmi's temple throbbed; he heard it!
He's been financially independent for a long time, you bastard!
After all, ever since he joined the Demon Slayer Corps, he's been killing demons to make money.
Having witnessed the miserable consequences of his older brother talking back, Xuanmi ultimately refrained from making a scene.
