I, Kousaka Kyousuke, the Knight of the Helping Table

Page 35

“Get out of the way, Bedivere. This has nothing to do with you. Um, wait.” Gawain and Lancelot originally wanted to drive Bedivere away, but the two of them thought of something tacitly. So they smiled at Bedivere and asked, “Bedivere, we have a task for you.”

“Well, I have to go to the kitchen to help wash the cups, so I won’t bother you anymore.” Bedivere was very sharp and noticed that the two gorillas in front of him had ill intentions towards him, so he retreated and tried to escape. Unfortunately, his shoulders were held down tightly by Gawain and Lancelot.

“Don’t say that. Bedivere, we will take care of things like washing the cups. Now the organization has a mission for you, I hope you can accept it.”

“Okay… okay.” Bedivere realized that he couldn’t escape and could only obey their orders.

Mashu, who was watching the whole show, suddenly thought of something and secretly sent an email to Eriri asking her to go to Kyosuke’s house early tomorrow.

Kyosuke said goodnight to everyone at Camelot and went home with Tama. Bedivere changed into a long-sleeved sweater with a hood and followed them a little while after the two left.

——————————————————————————————————————

On the train back home, Xiaoyu lay in Kyosuke’s arms, which made Kyosuke bear most of the attention in the car. Kyosuke found that the people who didn’t look at them were office workers who fell asleep on the train because they were too tired from work.

Kyosuke gently stroked the other’s fox ears with one hand and kneaded the other’s tail with the other hand. It must be said that this feeling is really great. Kyosuke got addicted after just one touch. Although Kyosuke has touched girls’ heads before (mostly Eriri, Mordred and Kirino when she was a child), he has never felt this kind of furry touch before.

But it was a bit embarrassing to be looked at like this all the time, so Kyosuke whispered in Xiaoyu’s ear: “Hey, Xiaoyu, can’t you just get up from me? There’s still a lot of room on the side, you don’t have to stay in my arms.”

“No, how can a chair be as comfortable as my husband’s arms? Everything about my husband is the best?”

Kyosuke listened to the two people beside him gossiping about the old lady in a voice that seemed to be whispering but could actually be heard by the entire car.

“Oh, the young people nowadays…”

Kyosuke listened to the two aunties commenting on him and Tama with rather explicit words. It seemed that in their eyes, he and Tama were just like filming a special effects movie in public. He thought it was great that there were no strangers in the car. Kyosuke blushed a little after being told that by the two aunties, so he simply buried his head between Tama’s ears to avoid being bothered.

However, Bedivere, who was not far from Kyosuke, covered his mouth and used the smallest sound he could to call Camelot on his cell phone: “So, I have seen at least four people calling the police, saying that Kyosuke and the other two were openly committing indecent acts in public. Can you put Merlin down and deal with this matter first? Ah, what? The old man already knows about this? Okay, just pretend I didn’t say anything.” After knowing that a certain Crown B-rank agent had intervened, Bedivere decisively stopped caring about these trivial matters and continued to protect Kyosuke in secret.

——————————————————————————————————————

“I am back.”

“My husband and I are back home~”

Kyosuke used the key to open the door of the Kosaka family. As expected, everyone else in the house had already gone to bed. But Kyosuke didn’t care at all, he was used to this kind of treatment.

“Husband, aren’t you going to take a shower?” Xiaoyu watched Kyosuke change his shoes and then went straight to the shower room to throw his clothes into the basket next to the washing machine, then took out a set of clean pajamas from the laundry next to it and put them on. She was a little curious. She was thinking about going in to wipe Kyosuke’s back while he was taking a shower.

“No, they definitely didn’t leave hot water for me. I’ll take a shower tomorrow.” Kyosuke went to the bathroom to wash up, but first he took out a brand new set of toiletries from the mirrored cabinet and handed them to Tamamonomae.

“Mo~ Xiaoyu doesn’t need this? Xiaoyu, I can just use my husband’s stuff?~”

“Don’t even think about it. Although I’ve let you move in, you have to do these things according to my instructions.” Kyosuke flicked the other person’s head directly, “Also, you can sleep in the guest room when you go to bed later. I’ll prepare bedding for you.”

“No, I want to sleep with my husband.”

“Be obedient. There is only one single bed in my room. You can’t sleep on it.”

“It’s okay. I don’t have to sleep on the bed.”

“You…” Looking at Xiaoyu’s extremely serious eyes, Kyosuke gave in.

“Okay, you can sleep on the floor. But first, don’t blame me if you feel cold in the middle of the night.”

“Okay, my husband is the best~” Xiaoyu happily threw herself into Kyosuke’s arms.

Am I really that good? Kyosuke looked at Tamamonomae and always felt that her feelings for him were a little unreal. When he was with Fumino before, although Fumino was also very nice to him, she was definitely not as clingy as Tamamonomae.

After washing up, Kyosuke took out the bedding used to entertain guests from the guest room while Xiaoyu was washing up and spread it on the floor of his room. Although it has not been used for a long time, Jianao would take these bedding out to dry every once in a while, so it is not a problem to use them directly. In order to prevent Xiaoyu from feeling the cold floor after falling asleep in the middle of the night, Kyosuke specially laid two layers of mats.

“Thank you, husband.” Xiaoyu happily fell on the mattress and looked at Kyosuke with a longing look, “Husband, Xiaoyu, can I use your quilt? Xiaoyu hopes to fall asleep surrounded by the smell of your husband.”

“Don’t even think about it.” Kyosuke flatly rejected Xiaoyu’s proposal and went straight to bed, rolled up the quilt and went to sleep. He deliberately faced the wall inside the bed with his back to Xiaoyu who was kneeling there. Because a lot of things happened today, Kyosuke, who was already physically and mentally exhausted, fell asleep quickly.

After Xiaoyu confirmed that Kyosuke was asleep, her happy smile immediately turned sad.

She looked at Kyosuke who had fallen asleep with a sad expression in her eyes. Husband, do you really not remember anything? At that moment, Xiaoyu had the urge to wake Kyosuke up and tell him everything, but as soon as she had this thought, she felt a strong pain in her chest. This made Xiaoyu fall to the ground with her chest in pain.

pain.

pain.

it hurts.

This pain from the soul made Xiaoyu want to scream out loud, but she looked up at Kyosuke who was already asleep, and was afraid of waking him up, so she had to choose to endure it silently. Even if she had health problems, Xiaoyu didn’t want to make Kyosuke worry. What’s more, this was originally her own business, and it had nothing to do with Kyosuke.

After a long time, Xiaoyu seemed to finally succumb to the pain. She used up her remaining strength to whisper, “I know, I won’t tell you, so please let me go.”

As if he understood Xiaoyu’s mumblings, the severe pain in his chest gradually subsided.

“Ugh… Damn it. It’s so close.” After regaining control of her body, Xiaoyu was still lying on the ground gasping for breath. It took her a long time to muster the strength to stand up again.

Xiaoyu came to the bed and looked at Kyosuke who was sleeping soundly. At this time, Kyosuke, who was already sleeping soundly, turned over unconsciously in his dream and faced Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu looked at Kyosuke’s handsome sleeping face and smiled happily. She gently spread out the quilt that was wrapped in a mess because of Kyosuke’s bad sleeping posture, helped Kyosuke cover himself again, and made sure that Kyosuke’s whole body was in the quilt.

“Finally I see you again, my husband. Xiaoyu, I really missed you.”

Xiaoyu placed a hand on Kyosuke’s forehead, and her hand emitted a faint blue light.

I’m sorry, my husband. Xiaoyu, I can’t tell you the truth, so I hope you can recall it yourself. Recall the beautiful memories that once belonged only to us.

At this time, under the electric pole outside the Takasaka family’s house.

“A-choo—” Bedivere sniffed hard. Although it was already spring, it was still very cold on the streets late at night. Bedivere regretted not bringing a coat to keep warm.

Are you catching a cold? After sneezing once more, Bedivere looked at the window of Kyosuke’s room and couldn’t help but feel sad about his situation.

Chapter 16 Mi Jiang: Waking up in the morning and having a beautiful wife to make breakfast is my lifelong dream

“Your eyes are bright, your private eyes are beautiful…”

The melodious singing woke Kyosuke from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes, sat up and turned off the alarm clock on the bedside table.

“Ah~ yawn”

Kyosuke, who was not fully awake, couldn’t help yawning. He scratched his hair and tried to recall the dream he was having before he was woken up by the alarm clock.

Kyosuke felt that he had a very beautiful dream last night, in which he seemed to have made an agreement with someone. But it seemed that he woke up at the most critical moment, and when he woke up, he had no memory of what happened in the dream.

Although the dream scene felt so real when he was in the dream, he couldn’t remember what happened in the dream after waking up. This feeling of being unable to see through a window paper even though it was right in front of him made Kyousuke feel very uncomfortable. He scratched his hair hard to make his hair, which was already a little messy due to his bad sleeping posture, even more messy to vent his dissatisfaction.

Kyosuke let out a sigh of relief while holding his hair, then jumped out of bed. He planned to put aside these troubles and get up to go to school. When Kyosuke took a look at the floor beside his bed while taking a change of school uniform, he found that the quilt he had prepared for Tamamonomae yesterday had been neatly folded and placed aside, but Tamamonomae herself was nowhere to be seen.

“I thought she would attack me at night, but she turned out to be very well behaved.” Kyosuke thought that since Xiaoyu was so insistent on sleeping in his room, she would definitely attack him at night. He was even prepared to be worse than an animal, but she really listened to him and went to sleep directly. Kyosuke didn’t know whether to be thankful or regretful for Xiaoyu’s behavior.

Kyosuke came downstairs with a clean school uniform. When he left the room just now, he looked at the time and found that he still had plenty of time, so he planned to take a shower in the bathroom before eating.

“Ok?”

Kyosuke found Kousaka Yoshino standing at the kitchen door, looking into the room with an embarrassed look on her face. From Kyosuke’s line of sight, he could also see Eriri and Kirino in the kitchen. Kirino had her back to him so he couldn’t tell her expression, but Eriri was standing sideways, so Kyosuke could see her open mouth in surprise.

Kyosuke felt that the only person who could make these people behave like this at home was Tamamonomae. It looked like Tamamonomae was making breakfast in the kitchen?

When Jianao saw Kyosuke coming over, she quickly grabbed Kyosuke’s shoulders and asked, “Kyosuke, can you explain to me what’s going on?”

Kyosuke did not directly answer Kanono’s question, because he knew that he was in the wrong regarding Xiaoyu’s matter.

“Um, what’s the matter?”

Jianai pointed to the kitchen and said, “You are still trying to make excuses. Take a look for yourself.”

Kyosuke poked his head into the kitchen and found that Xiaoyu had tied a white apron over her original blue kimono and was busy in front of the stove while humming a little tune.

In addition to Eriri and Kirino standing at the door, Kousaka Daisuke was sitting at the dining table next to the stove. Although he was holding a newspaper in his hand, his attention was not on the newspaper at all. Instead, he used the newspaper as a cover to secretly observe Tamamonomae who occupied the kitchen.

At this time, 5 trays were placed on the table, each with a ready-made breakfast: a bowl of rice, a bowl of miso soup, a grilled fish, a portion of Japanese cold tofu, and a small bowl of natto. Each plate of grilled fish also had grated radish as a side dish. The sharp-eyed Kyosuke even noticed that one of the radishes was specially made into a heart shape.

Of course, what surprised Kyosuke more than the breakfast was the lunch box that Tama was preparing. Compared to the shabby curry lunch box that Kanae occasionally prepared for Kyosuke (leftovers from the evening meal), the lunch box that Tama prepared was obviously much more luxurious. At least as far as Kyosuke could remember, except for preparing New Year’s dishes on New Year’s Day, the family never used this three-layer lunch box in front of them.

The two bottom layers have been covered, and Kyosuke has no idea what’s inside. However, from the colorful third layer that is still being prepared (Kyosuke has already seen sashimi, sweet shrimp sushi, and fried chicken nuggets), he can imagine that the two bottom layers must be extremely gorgeous as well.

Xiaoyu cut a finished omelette into pieces, and put the three middle pieces in plastic wrap into the lunch box to prevent the smell from mixing. Then Xiaoyu put the remaining omelettes one by one on the grilled fish plate on the breakfast tray that had been completed earlier.

When Daisuke was passing the portion in front of him, he stood up and made room for Xiaoyu.

“Thank…thank you.” Daisuke thanked Xiaoyu vaguely.

“It’s okay, father. This is what I should do.” Xiaoyu wagged her tail happily when she heard Daisuke’s praise.

“Cough cough. Cough cough.” Hearing Xiaoyu calling him “father”, Daisuke was so scared that he started coughing.

Eriri and Kirino looked at Kyosuke angrily, and Kyosuke shook his head innocently to indicate that it had nothing to do with him.

“Ah, father, are you okay? You should take care of your health. Xiaoyu is looking forward to you presiding over the wedding of Xiaoyu and Kyosuke.” Xiaoyu patted Daisuke’s back gently and said with concern.

“Cough, cough, cough.” Daisuke coughed even more violently, and the newspaper was crumpled up by him.

Kyosuke felt that the looks in Eriri and Kirino’s eyes were enough to kill people.

After sharing the extra omelette (the one with the heart-shaped grated radish was given an extra piece), Xiaoyu returned to the stove and covered the finished three-layer deluxe bento with a lid, and carefully wrapped the entire bento box with a cloth. During this time, Eriri opened her mouth several times to speak but no sound came out.

After everything was done, Xiaoyu, who was concentrating on her work, looked up and saw Kyosuke.

Tamamonomae took off her apron and said to Kyosuke, “My husband, breakfast is ready. Please wash up and come over to eat.”

Looking at Xiaoyu’s smiling face, Kyosuke sighed: What a beautiful picture!

“Husband…Kyosuke!!” Eriri finally couldn’t bear it anymore. She rode directly on Kyosuke’s neck and kept hitting Kyosuke’s head with her hands.

Kyosuke was caught completely off guard by Eriri’s sudden attack, which made him lose his balance. He quickly held onto the wall to steady himself, and said to Eriri on his neck, “Eriri, please come down quickly, it’s very dangerous.”

“No way. If Kyosuke doesn’t explain this matter clearly, I will never let you go.” Eriri completely ignored Kyosuke and continued to hit Kyosuke’s head with her hand.

“Please stop.” Xiaoyu couldn’t stand what Erili did. She angrily scolded Erili, “You will cause great trouble to your husband. Please come down immediately.”

Although Xiaoyu’s words were polite, her tone was quite firm, as if she was planning to take action herself if Eriri didn’t let go.

Rather than the completely unfamiliar Tamamonomae, Kirino decided to stand on the side of the more familiar Eriri, and she stopped Tamamonomae who was about to step forward.

“Who the hell are you? You showed up in my house for no apparent reason and are giving orders here.”

Tama held her chest with one hand (Eri’s output was even more powerful) and touched her face with the other hand. She looked at Kirino with a gentle gaze, as if an elder was looking at a younger person, and said, “You must be my husband’s younger sister, Kirino. I am your brother’s fiancée, Tamamonomae. If you don’t mind, you can call me sister-in-law (姉さん).”

“Fiancée!!” Everyone present was shocked by Xiaoyu’s words.

“Kyosuke, what are you doing? Human trafficking is illegal.” Mom, don’t you have any confidence in your son?

“Boy, do you really have to let me arrest you myself?” Dad, shouldn’t you be happy that I found you a gentle and beautiful daughter-in-law?

“You big pervert!!” Kirino, can’t you think of another word besides pervert? You’ve been calling me that since you were 10 years old, aren’t you tired of it now?

“Kyosuke, give me back my youth!” Eriri, I swear to the light bulb on the ceiling that I never wanted your youth.

Looking at the surprised expressions of everyone in the Kousaka family (plus a golden retriever), Kyosuke felt that things had become very troublesome.
