Chapter 162 - The Hiiragi Family is Amazing (2/2)
“Gosh, these rich ladies…”
“Senpai, your plates empty? What do you want? Cabbage, tofu, crab, fish balls…”
I guess that since she can’t compete in terms of family, she’s changed her method of appeal.
“Okay, anything is fine.”
“Alright.”
“Haruka-san as well, if you continue cooking, it’s going to be all finished you know?”
“I’m fine. Don’t hold back and eat up.”
“…Seiji-kun calls her Haruka-san.”
Kanata muttered causing Sana to purse her lips.
“Until now, you’ve always called her Sensei in front us.”
“You told me not to mind, so that’s what I’m doing.”
““Hmph!””
They’re looking at me with cold eyes.
“Detestable, those riajuus. Right, Kana-chan?”
“…Yeah, it really is.”
What should I do?
“Thanks for waiting! Who wants some sukiyaki meat?”
Sana, Kanata, and Rei-chan all instantly raised their hands.
“Then, let’s start with Rei-chan.”
“If you eat beef with marbling like that when you’re still so young, you’ll end up turning into a terrible adult, you know?”
“Fufu. It’s fine, I’m already a fine lady. I’m different from a child.”
“What are you talking about? You’re the youngest one here.”
I watched as Rei-chan covered the shining—or at least seemed to shine from my point of view—meat with plenty of egg. It looks so good…
“Senpai, open your mouth. Aaaahn. Come on, aaahn.”
“Is it okay?”
“Hey wait. You should just eat it yourself.”
Sana quickly spoke out.
“It’s my meat, so I get to choose what to do with it.”
“Gununu…”
Once I opened my mouth, high class meat covered in egg was placed in my mouth. The mellow egg and the sweet and spicy stock… and then, the beef that seemed soft enough to melt the instant it entered my mouth. It’s amazing… What is this… this is the taste of happiness… Hiiragi-chan watched over our exchange with an expression that said that it couldn’t be helped.
“T-then, Sana will also do that for Nii-san.”
Hiiragi-chan’s smiling expression cracked.
On the other hand Natsumi-chan began to laugh.
“S-Sana-chan, isn’t it fine for you to eat it yourself?”
“…It’s Sana’s meet, so Sana can choose.”
“…Saa-chan, Sensei has a black aura coming out of her. There’s also that bleeding into her smile.”
Taking a glance at her, I found a smile that seemed to rumble audibly.
“…S-Sana will eat her own portion…”
The black aura was scattered, and the rumbling stopped. Natsumi-chan was laughing the whole time while saying, “So, Sana is a no?”
“T-that’s not what siblings should be doing, right?”
Hiiragi-chan pouted slightly. After that, a person who seemed to be the head chef came in to carefully cook each piece of meat one by one. Somehow, it doesn’t seem like the sukiyaki that I’m used to…
“Sensei, if you marry Nii-san, the Sanada family can’t provide the same sort of accommodations as this, are you fine with that?”
“Yeah. No problem.”
“H-hmm… such a lovey-dovey couple.”
The condition for marrying Hiiragi-chan was for me to marry into their family, but I guess it’s fine not to say that for now.
“It’s frustrating… but the meat is good…”
Sana was making a complicated but happy expression.
