...The so-called calmness is just a surface phenomenon. In fact, if Qingyou fails to hold on at any link, such as losing his energy when teaching cocktail making, or failing to coax the young lady in the fitting room, the result will be terrible.
Or I can hint to the principal at school next week to give me more workload, and just work overtime on the weekend.
Qingyou can't bear going through this tribulation every week.
Come back home.
Airi answered the phone, it seemed to be a call from her father. The old bastard Chihaya Genichirō often assigned work to his daughter at various times. Qingyou didn't care, but opened the system interface to check the progress of Shimamura Hitomi's task.
Hitomi Shimamura's charm value is temporarily fixed at 77, which is 80 points away from the task requirement of 3, which means that in addition to changing the hairstyle, the clothes purchased later are also useful.
"Anyway, as long as I can temporarily reach 80 points, I can find an opportunity at school to give her a hairpin or something... No, it would easily cause misunderstandings. I can just find an excuse to let her try."
Just when Qingyou was deciding on a strategy, the system couldn't help but pop up and complain: "Host, you are too cowardly. It's normal for friends to give each other a small gift."
"Am I a coward? I just cherish my life, okay? No one knows more about hatchets than me."
The hatchet could come from any angle and in any way.
In this life, Qingyou must cut off all emotional ties and eliminate all ambiguity.
"Tong, if you have nothing to do, you might as well do more scanning and help me find tasks to collect energy points."
"Master Host, this is exactly what I want to report! The scan and analysis of Chihaya Airi is almost complete, which means that the host can start her quest line soon!"
This news made Qingyou a little happy.
Originally, he didn't care that Chihaya Airi didn't have a quest line. After all, Airi already played the role of providing shields and exploding gold coins. There was really no need to provoke her for the quest reward.
Now Qingyou needs energy points to kill the thief Cao Ayano, so if Ai Li can give him some energy points, it will be enough to solve the urgent problem.
The eldest lady is not easy to mess with, but there is no risk of being chopped by a hatchet when fighting with her. Even if all the women in the world fall in love with Qingyou, Ai Li will definitely be an exception. Qingyou is so sure of this.
Qingyou had been urging the system for several days regarding Chihaya Airi's mission. He didn't have much hope at first. After all, this guy was an unconquerable character, and the system was the "Prodigal Son System", which at first glance could be described in three words: irrelevant.
I didn't expect to have such a pleasant surprise. It was worth it for Qingyou to be under so much pressure these days.
Chapter 38: Chihaya Kiyohiro, who loves his fiancée, posts a message to try to piss off Ayano
At Chihaya's residence, Airi's phone calls are usually played through the custom-made audio system in the house, which is in line with Airi's unrestrained and bold style at home.
People always need to compromise. Being a manager in a consortium is too busy and depressing, so they like to run wild when they get home. Qingyou can understand this very well. He fully understands the hard work of the eldest lady. Japanese-style companies are inherently particular about every detail and have complicated procedures. Genichirō also intends to make use of his daughter, so the result is naturally that she is busy every day.
Normally, when Ai Li answers the phone, Qing You will go back to the private room to avoid her, or Qing You might be playing with the katana, so they don't affect each other.
With the door half open, Qingyou leaned against the door frame. The room was on the second floor, and one could see lush vegetation outside.
Chihaya Kiyoyu looked into the distance, holding a can of iced happy water, sipping it happily, and listening to what the eldest lady downstairs was arguing with her father.
"...Excuse me, father, I just hope that the other party will leave some leeway. This is not weakness at all."
"It's not your place to go back on your word and ask the other party to change the terms of a deal you've already agreed on."
"You negotiated this for me. I never agreed to it!"
Airi seemed a little excited, and Qingyou listened to a few words and judged that they were probably discussing something about Takagi Akane.
After the call ended, Qingyou walked down the stairs and said to Ai Li, who was sulking on the sofa, "I don't think you need to worry too much. That kid has been out there for two years, so he probably isn't as crazy as he was in junior high school."
"I don't understand. I just want her to be transferred to another class and not be too close to Qingyou-kun..."
"If she wants to cause trouble, she can do so as long as she is in Chihaya Academy. Whether she is my student or not will not have much impact. And you are also aware of your father's temper. He hates it most when juniors ask to adjust the plan because he thinks they will push their limits and the whole plan will become ineffective in the end."
Qingyou analyzed calmly. It must be said that he had a very accurate eye for people. Even Ai Li, the only daughter, had only this understanding of her father.
"Instead of begging your father to relax his demands, a better strategy is to take the opportunity to make demands on him, which is a way of bargaining that your father is more likely to accept."
"Qingyou-kun is very good at gambling."
"When people are alive, they have to face the game of all parties."
"So, regarding our father's urging us to have a child as soon as possible, how do you think we should play the game, wise Qingyou-kun?"
"Ah, weren't you just talking about Akane Takagi?"
"Before that, my father mentioned it again, saying that he hopes to hear the good news that I'm pregnant within the year... Ahhh, the old man is really annoying! Why do you want to have a baby at such a young age?"
"Haha, it's as if you have to give birth to a child even if you are not young anymore." Qingyou added ruthlessly, "For example, five years later, if your father is really in a hurry to give birth, he might urge you every day."
"..."
Ai Li showed disgust on her face, gnashing her teeth, and her expression was a bit disgusting.
"Some things are so rooted in the minds of others that no matter how hard we try, we can't change them... like Akane Takagi's class, or induced birth," Kiyoh said seriously, "I promise to treat Akane Takagi calmly and never bring shame to the Chihaya family."
"You better be."
Ai Li got very angry when she thought of that bitch who would stare at Qingyou in a seductive way in class every day.
However, Qingyou-kun has been performing quite well recently, which has reduced Aili's anxiety a lot.
Speaking of performance, Ai Li suddenly remembered the promise she made before leaving in the morning, and her tone suddenly became playful: "I am very satisfied with Qingyou-kun's performance in the mall today. Now, it's time to fulfill my promise and give Qingyou-kun a reward."
"Well, actually, you don't have to..."
"What you promised must be done. This is the creed of the Chihaya family."
"Ok."
"Go get a wooden tub for soaking feet and a basin of hot water."
Qingyou did as he was told.
The wooden barrel has a heating function and the water temperature can be set to Aili's preference.
"So what's the reward?"
"Wash my feet."
"I know, but what's the reward?"
"Washing my feet is a reward. Isn't it honorable enough for a man to wash my feet?"
Looking at Ai Li's matter-of-fact look, Qingyou deeply felt the cognitive gap between people.
I really want to curse, "Pushin woman steamed shrimp head", but Ai Li is not ordinary. Besides, looking at the perfectly shaped feet in the water, Qingyou is really a little bit overwhelmed.
The fair and delicate skin, distinct joints and ligaments outline firmness and charm.
As if she was a little tired from shopping, Ai Li stretched and moved her ankles unconsciously, like a swimming carp, stirring up ripples in the wooden barrel.
Qingyou put the towel on her thighs, took out her mobile phone and took a photo from behind and to the side over her shoulder, capturing the wooden foot-washing tub in the picture.
Then, under Aili's puzzled gaze, he tweeted the photo and considerately blurred the footbath bucket.
The eldest lady doesn't like people commenting on her bare feet.
"We should show our affection from time to time, so your father won't get suspicious," Qingyou explained.
"Do you think he is doubting us?" Ai Li's eyes flickered.
"I think the frequent mention of having children, including the appearance of Akane Takagi, are all tentative. Fortunately, you didn't react indifferently to Akane Takagi's appearance, otherwise he would be even more suspicious."
Ai Li thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. Indeed, she and Qingyou seldom showed intimacy to others. Although this was consistent with her usual image, it was always safer to show affection.
Besides, if you think about it carefully, letting others know that Qingyou washed her feet... is not unpleasant.
Instead, there is a kind of joy in declaring sovereignty, well, sovereignty over the toy pig!
Qingyou has a more vicious idea. He wants Ayano to see the news and make her angry to death.
After all, Ayano believes that Qingyou and Airi have no feelings for each other. The more so, the more rebellious Qingyou becomes. Let her see the loving relationship between Chihaya and her husband and realize her wrong thoughts.
Qingyou, who was in a good mood, hummed a pleasant tune, dipped her rolled-up sleeves into the warm water, and grabbed Aili's small feet.
Ai Li's feet were very clean, with no dust to rub on them. The main function of foot soaking was to relieve fatigue, so Qingyou held both of her feet with both hands and lightly pressed the acupoints near the heels with his fingers, which was a method of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
Immediately, a charming hum came out of Ai Li's throat, tickling Qing You's heart.
However, at this time, Ai Li was more flustered than Qing You. The embarrassing sound that came from her subconscious comfort made Ai Li feel ashamed.
She said it was a reward for Qingyou, but in fact, after Qingyou pinched her feet last time, she couldn't forget the comfortable feeling, but she couldn't ask him for it actively because she couldn't afford it.
So I found an excuse for reward and enjoyed it again.
The result was a greater pleasure than the last time.
Fortunately, Ai Li glanced at Qing You and found that Qing You was also pretending to be calm, so she pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Being able to touch the coveted feet in the water, a certain little pig must be so happy that he is about to faint."
"Yes, yes, I'm so happy. Is the intensity appropriate?"
"improvise."
"Then keep this pace for now. Miss, if you are tired, you can take a nap."
go to bed?
The last time she accidentally fell asleep, Ai Li had sworn to herself that she would never let her guard down against Qing You again.
Ai Li opened her phone to check updates to avoid falling asleep.
Qingyou took the opportunity to check the system in his mind, and the first of Chihaya Airi's series of tasks had already appeared.
Qingyou, who was used to the unreliable style of the system, was mentally prepared, but was still shocked by the task description.
Chapter 39 Qingyou is worried about Ai Li's calf
[Mission Name: The Hidden Danger of Chihaya Airi]

What, the red-eyed demon has a hidden illness?
For a moment, Qingyou felt happy subconsciously, but soon turned to worry.
This seemingly contradictory emotion is like when you face that boss who is a jerk but pays you a generous salary. You hate him even if you hate him, but it’s best not to cause any trouble, otherwise who will make up for the salary I’m missing?
Qingyou clicked on the panel to check the specific situation. A bunch of medical terms flooded in. Qingyou, who had no professional knowledge in this area, read it for a long time before he realized that Ai Li might have neurogenic lower limb muscle weakness.
In other words, there is a chance of being in a wheelchair at a young age.
Doesn't this mean that Qingyou will have to push her wheelchair to take care of her, push her to work during the day, push her for a walk at night, and push her to go to the toilet in the middle of the night... Ugh! Don't do this!
Unless you add money.
But then again, even if he could pay more, Qingyou still felt that it would be easier to get along with a young lady who wasn't in a wheelchair. At least he could play games in peace at night.
Thinking of this, Qingyou gradually increased the strength of his hands, causing Ai Li, who was playing with her mobile phone, to frown.
"Why are you suddenly so strong? Are you trying to take revenge on me this way, Qingyou-kun?"
"Of course not." Qingyou paused, organized his words, and then said seriously: "Miss, do you occasionally feel soreness, numbness and weakness in your calves? Even if you are not too tired, you will have similar symptoms."
"Who told you that?"
"I know a little bit of Chinese medicine. It was the old chef who was good at Chinese cuisine who taught it to me." To explain his familiarity with Chinese cuisine, Qingyou made up an old man who was his childhood friend. If there are any skills that are difficult to explain, don't ask, just say they are produced by the old chef.
Ai Li was silent for a moment, and did not see any hypocrisy in Qingyou's eyes.
About two months ago, Ai Li secretly went to the hospital for a checkup based on the symptoms described by Qingyou. The doctor was a close confidant of the Chihaya Group who had been serving the company for many years and was trustworthy.
Theoretically, no one except her father knew about Airi's problem.
This information is naturally kept strictly confidential. As the daughter of Chihaya Genichirō, she must never show her weak side to the outside world.
Being sick is also a form of weakness.
Tsk, Qingyou-kun actually saw through it...
"It's not your turn to worry about it." Ai Li said disdainfully, "The doctor has already made a treatment plan for me."
"It must have had little effect."
"..."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Ai Li's face, and Qingyou knew that he had guessed right.
Since it is a hidden disease worthy of the task of systematic digging out, it certainly cannot be cured easily. This is certainly not to say that the doctors of the Chihaya Group are not good enough, but even the most advanced technology can sometimes be unable to handle something as delicate and complex as the human body.
"Let me give it a try. I'll give Miss a massage regularly every day. I believe it will definitely get better."
