"Since someone has helped you, you should show some appreciation, right?"

"Yes."

"So what are you still standing there for?"

"Ok."

Ryoko Hamabe stood at the door of Watanabe Yu's house with a lunch box, and recalled the words her grandmother had said to her.

It's not that she was unwilling to give the gift, but she just felt that giving the return gift herself would make her feel indescribably embarrassed.

Come on!

I cheered myself up in my heart.

Ryoko Hamabe raised her bare hand and gently knocked on the door of Yuu Watanabe's house.

Chapter 28 Should I invite her to dinner? (Two in one)

"coming!"

As a man answered the door, the door opened with a click, and Watanabe Yu's figure appeared in front of Hamabe Ryoko.

"Hamabe-senpai, what are you doing?"

Looking at Hamabe Ryoko in front of him, a hint of doubt appeared on Watanabe Yu's face.

Logically speaking, at this time near dusk, the only person who would knock on his door would be Hamabe Ryoko's grandmother.

"A thank you gift from last time."

Ryoko Hamabe handed the lunch box in her hand to Yu Watanabe.

Inside was the fried pork chop she had made for him after get off work in the morning, before going to the hospital to take care of him.

"Thank you."

Watanabe Yu took the lunch box from her hand generously and said thank you.

In fact, he wanted to say something like "It's just a piece of cake" at first, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

Given Hamabe Ryoko's personality, she would feel much more comfortable if he accepted her kindness frankly.

People who are forced to have strong personalities by the environment are usually like this.

"You're welcome."

Seeing that Watanabe Yu readily accepted the lunch box, Hamabe Ryoko's expression became visibly relaxed.

Before Watanabe Yu answered, she was really worried that he would refuse to accept it no matter what.

"Where's grandma?"

Watanabe Yu picked up the towel around his neck and wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was now approaching May and the temperature was getting higher and higher. It was still spring, but the temperature was already approaching summer.

He was cooking in front of the stove just now, and it was no exaggeration to say that he was sweating profusely. The old-fashioned electric fan that only made noise and produced a slight breeze was completely useless.

"She's in the hospital."

When talking about her grandmother Rie Hamabe, Hamabe Ryoko subconsciously lowered her eyebrows, and a hint of sadness flashed across her eyes.

She didn't want her grandmother to lie in bed at all.

"You just came back from escorting?"

Watanabe Yu took up the conversation.

That night, Hamabe Ryoko said that she would go to the hospital to accompany the patient in a few days.

"Yes."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded and gave an affirmative answer.

In fact, to be more precise, she had just gone up to the second floor and hadn't even had time to enter her own home.

"Have you got a meal yet?"

Watanabe Yu keenly grasped the crux of the problem.

If Hamabe Ryoko just came back, then this girl probably hasn't eaten.

and……

He raised his eyebrows and looked out into the night outside.

It's almost half past seven now. If she waits for her to go home and cook before eating, it will basically be eight o'clock in the evening.

"Not yet. I'll do it when I get back."

Ryoko Hamabe heard the hidden meaning of Watanabe Yu's words, gave a comforting smile, and chose to decline calmly.

She knew very well that there was not much food left in the refrigerator. The ingredients purchased on Wednesday had been sold out. The only thing left was half a bowl of uncooked rice in the rice bag.

But just rice is just rice.

She felt embarrassed to owe Watanabe Yu any more favors.

[Strong-minded people never reveal their difficulties, even if the ingredients she purchased that day were all gone]

[Different strategies should be used for different people]

[Being a little tougher should be good]

[The romance options have been updated, and the options with too high difficulty have been postponed]

【Would you like to invite her to dinner? 】

Tsk.

You finally made a choice for once, A Tong!!

"I just prepared the meal, want to eat together?"

Yu Watanabe extended the invitation.

Because he was financially more comfortable now, and today was the weekend after exam week, he cooked a few more dishes today, hoping to reward himself.

He remembered very clearly that when they went home that day, they talked about Chinese food.

At that time, he consciously paid attention to the micro-expressions on Hamabe Ryoko's face. When he mentioned Chinese cuisine, she listened very seriously.

She seems to have quite an interest in Chinese cuisine.

Of course, it could also be that the egg fried rice he sent her that day left a deep impression on her.

[Rewards have been issued: Music Comprehensive (Elementary)]

A cold mechanical sound rang in his ears.

"...it will disturb you."

Hamabe Ryoko bit her thin lips lightly, and there was some hesitation in her slightly cold voice.

Obviously, the cold wind whistling through the icy valley is no longer as cold and rejecting as it was at the beginning.

"It's just an extra pair of chopsticks." Watanabe Yuu stepped aside, bent down and opened the shoe cabinet, "As for the slippers..."

He looked at the pair of slippers that the Saint Miss had worn before, took them out, and placed them on the ground.

"Wear these."

This is the only pair of extra slippers he has at home.

I think the Saint Lady wouldn't mind this kind of thing.

"… Sorry to bother you then."

Ryoko, you are such a loser. Why do you start owing favors to others so easily again?

After cursing herself several times in her heart, Hamabe Ryoko walked into the entrance and changed into the slippers that Watanabe Yu had placed on the ground.

only……

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the slippers looked a little weird.

But she herself couldn't tell what was wrong.

To give a less appropriate example, it's like wearing clothes that other girls have worn.

But considering Watanabe Yu's personality, I should be the first girl to come to his house.

So, it’s an illusion.

She pursed her thin lips.

Walking along the corridor into the room, Hamabe Ryoko took a look inside the room, then turned around and walked to the stove with her long legs.

She couldn't just sit there and wait for food.

"Help me carry it over."

Seeing that Hamabe Ryoko came to the stove on her own initiative, Watanabe Yu didn't hesitate to hand her the spicy diced chicken and scrambled eggs with tomatoes that had just been served on a plate.

"hai~"

Hamabe Ryoko responded, took the two plates steadily, turned around, walked to the small square table on the tatami, put down the two plates, and then turned around and went back swiftly.

"There are two more dishes."

Watanabe Yu raised his eyes and motioned to Hamabe Ryoko to bring the remaining spicy and sour potato shreds and the sliced ​​braised beef over. He turned on the faucet in the sink as he wanted to wash the pot first.

He braised the braised beef yesterday, so it should have been well flavored.

Without exaggerating, the taste of the braised beef is not much different from those ten-year-old shops except that it lacks a little soul.

After all, he used the same bagged marinade.

Believe in the power of technology and hard work!

"Ah."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded slightly, picked up the two dishes obediently, put them down in front of the small square table, then turned around, as if she wanted to make another trip, but at Watanabe You's "No need", she obediently sat back on the futon.

After washing the used pot, Watanabe Yu wiped his hands with a towel, then picked up two sets of bowls and chopsticks, and the washed fruits and walked to the small square table and sat down.

As a person born in Shu, if conditions permit, he will never deprive himself of food.

"For rice, it's here."

Watanabe Yu raised his chin and motioned the latter to look at the rice cooker placed next to the small square table.

What he meant was that if she needed it, she could add it herself.

But the next second, he seemed to remember something, and he took the initiative to open the rice cooker, filled a bowl of rice, handed it to Hamabe Ryoko in front of him, then took the bowl from her hand and filled his own bowl with rice.

Ryoko Hamabe is different from Ayana Amamiya. The latter comes from a wealthy family and is much more generous and open about such small details. If Ryoko Hamabe were asked to add the extra ingredients herself, she would probably feel embarrassed and would only add a little bit.

"……Thanks."

Understanding what Watanabe Yu meant, Hamabe Ryoko took the rice and said thank you in a low voice.

"If it's not enough, add more yourself."

Watanabe Yu covered the rice cooker and reminded the latter.

When eating, unless you need to lose weight, you must eat until you are full.

Ryoko Hamabe has a good figure and doesn't need to lose weight.

"I'm gonna start now!"

Putting her hands together and saying the necessary pre-meal gestures in a ceremonial manner, Hamabe Ryoko picked up the chopsticks, took a look at the bright red spicy chicken, and after hesitating for a long time, she skipped the dish and chose the more friendly-looking scrambled eggs with tomatoes instead.

"This one isn't as spicy as you think."

After putting a piece of spicy chicken into his bowl with chopsticks, Watanabe Yu took a bite of it.

But the next moment, he himself was stunned for half a second.

Didn’t I say this not long ago!?
