Merlin Where are you? I need your help.
However, Merlin did not respond to him. Only the light bulb on the ceiling seemed to have heard Kyosuke’s prayer and fell to the ground and shattered.

Chapter 17: Jianao: The future I was looking forward to has disappeared
In the eyes of Kosaka Yoshino, breakfast at the Kosaka family used to be a happy and cheerful one (except for Kyosuke). The head of the family, Kosaka Daisuke and Kosaka Yoshino, would show their daughter what a model couple who respect each other is every morning, even though it was actually Kosaka Daisuke who constantly showed his “henpecked” nature (Kyosuke’s words).
Sometimes, the Takasaka family table would also be joined by the future wife of the eldest son of the family, Sawamura Spencer Eriri (this adorable, super invincible, youthful, beautiful girl with twin ponytails (self-proclaimed), who only Takasaka Yoshino thinks is her own. And Eriri can also naturally integrate into the Takasaka family table, and can get along well with all the members of the Takasaka family, except Kirino.
In the past, Kanono was very worried about whether Eriri and Kirino could get along well, because the two children always quarreled every time they met. However, the relationship between the two children has improved recently. The two no longer quarrel and can communicate happily. Although the content of their communication is mostly animation and comics, which are things that only children watch. I really don’t know why a junior high school student who is a model and a high school student with excellent grades like this kind of thing so much.
However, Kano believes that this is a good start. She believes that the future of the Takasaka family must be as she imagined: the eldest son will work in a small and medium-sized enterprise after graduating from university, and finally become a small section chief after more than ten years of hard work, and then marry the well-behaved and sensible daughter-in-law Eriri. And her daughter will marry a gentle and caring man with her blessing. She can enjoy her old age surrounded by her grandchildren. This is the ordinary but happy future that Kano Takasaka has planned for herself and this family.
However, now Kano found that her plan had completely deviated from the direction. Since her eldest son started working outside, she always heard a lot of bad rumors about her eldest son. Although these rumors were selectively ignored by her and her husband, it was an indisputable fact that a beautiful woman who she did not know at all came to see Kyosuke during the spring vacation.
Although Kyosuke later explained to her that the lady was just a customer she met while working part-time, and that she came to see him because he had done her a small favor and she came to express her gratitude, Kano felt a little uneasy, but she still chose to believe her child.
But now this matter cannot be covered up at all. A woman who has never appeared before (even more beautiful than the last one) suddenly occupied the kitchen of the Takasaka family, which should have belonged to her, after she woke up.
Based on his decades of life experience, the woman in front of him with a pair of charming peach blossom eyes is definitely not a good person. At first glance, she is the mistress in TV dramas who destroys other people’s families.
She originally thought that this was her husband’s affair. If that was the case, it would be easy to just kick her husband out and return to her desired “future of the Kosaka family”. But in fact, this extremely beautiful woman claimed to be her son’s wife, which surprised Kano.
Are you blind, beauty? How can my stupid son be worthy of you? Please leave our house as soon as possible.
Seeing the woman who called herself Tamamonomae attentively picking food for Kyosuke and repeating the scene of “Ah~Hmm?”, Kanono sighed deeply. She didn’t know what this woman’s purpose was, but she had to admit that this woman’s love for Kyosuke was not fake at all, because even she couldn’t carefully pick out all the fish bones of the grilled saury and feed it to Kyosuke. If a girl didn’t think about the other person wholeheartedly all the time, she would definitely not do such a thing.
However, as Kanono looked at Eriri and Kirino who were gathering their energy to explode at the dining table, she felt that the “future of the Takasaka family” that she had been planning for her entire life would continue to deviate from today and would never be realized.
——————————————————————————————————————
Kyosuke thought this was probably the most comfortable and most difficult meal he had ever had in his life.
I say it is comfortable because Xiaoyu’s feeding play is really feeding herself, and she can even be called an expert in feeding. She will pass me side dishes in time according to my eating speed, and sometimes she will occasionally give me a spoonful of miso soup because she is afraid that I am too dry. And the angle of passing food is also very good, so I can eat the food as long as I stretch my mouth forward a little.
In the past, when Fumino fed me, although I was also very happy to eat, Fumino’s behavior was more about showing affection to me, and what to eat and how to eat were secondary. For example, when Fumino fed me in the maid cafe, she fed me too fast. Before I finished eating the food in my mouth, the next spoonful was against my mouth. So even though I was secretly happy at that time, I really didn’t feel very comfortable eating, and I ate in a hurry.
It wasn’t a big deal before when there was only Fumino, but now with the comparison, I feel that Fumino’s skills still need to be improved.
As for how difficult it was, Kyosuke didn’t think anyone would find it pleasant to eat while being stared at by two volcanoes about to erupt.
Xiaoyu had noticed that Kyosuke frequently looked at Eriri and Kirino during dinner, and she also noticed their ferocious looks. However, she didn’t take it seriously at all. After all, these two people were no match for her, and the threat they posed to her was far less than that of the woman last night.
But when she saw Kyosuke looking at the two people for the twentieth time, Xiaoyu finally exploded with anger, not towards Kyosuke but towards Kirino and Eriri. “Did you two let my husband eat well? If my husband didn’t eat well and was not in the mood for the morning class, can you two girls bear the blame?”
“Hey, sister Kirino, don’t you want to eat? If it gets cold, it won’t taste good.”
Xiaoyu put down Kyosuke’s bowl and chopsticks, and looked at Kirino with a smile on her face, who was holding the bowl but not moving.
“You don’t need to worry about it. I will eat it, thank you.”
Although Kirino knew very well that the other party’s calling her “sister” must be interpreted as calling her sister-in-law, the other party was older than her after all, so calling her “sister” was not completely wrong. But because of this, Kirino felt even more uncomfortable.
“Kirito, you must be polite.” Daisuke, the head of the family, finally spoke up, glaring at Kirino. Kirino felt a little intimidated by her father’s gaze, after all, the majesty accumulated over more than ten years was still very intimidating to Kirino.
“I’m sorry.” Kirino bit her chopsticks and apologized to Xiaoyu unwillingly, then she ate with big mouthfuls and deliberately made loud noises. Damn, it’s so delicious. Why does this woman have such good cooking skills? If she wasn’t an enemy, I would definitely fall.
“I’m sorry my daughter is a little willful.” After taming Kirino, Daisuke calmly apologized to Tamamonomae, “Thank you for the breakfast, it tastes delicious. But if possible, can you let my useless eldest son eat by himself? After all, he is no longer a child who needs his parents to feed him.”
“Thank you for your compliment, father.” Xiaoyu thanked Daisuke very solemnly, with perfect etiquette, just like a good daughter-in-law being praised by her parents-in-law.
Daisuke smiled and nodded. Seeing that Xiaoyu had no intention of feeding Kyosuke anymore, he didn’t say anything to Kyosuke.
Kyosuke felt that Daisuke was so easy to talk to because he was embarrassed to scold him in front of outsiders. If there were only family members around, he would definitely give him a “father’s back throw” first and then talk to him about reason.
“Eriri, you should eat it too. It tastes very good.” Daisuke finally tried to comfort Eriri who looked unwilling. After all, the woman in front of him was a guest and as a host, he could not blame the guest. So he had to slightly wrong Eriri who was familiar with his family. As for the joke that the woman in front of him said that she wanted to be Kyosuke’s wife, it was just a joke that he had heard, but it would be ridiculous if he took it seriously. He would know how good his son was. Although this brat did have some luck with women, it was not to the point where such a perfect girl would take the initiative to throw herself at him.
“Yeah.” After being comforted by Daisuke, Eriri lowered her head and silently ate the breakfast that Tamamonomae gave her. She felt a little aggrieved. From her understanding of Uncle Daisuke, she knew that the reason why he was so polite to the pink-haired woman in front of him was because he treated her as a stranger. But this still made her feel very uncomfortable, especially since the breakfast she was eating originally belonged to someone else.
When breakfast started, Tama realized that she had prepared one less person’s breakfast. She didn’t know that Eriri would come to eat, so she only prepared breakfast for the Kosaka family and herself. So Tama generously gave her portion to Eriri, and she made a mixed rice with the leftovers from preparing the bento.
Eriri enjoyed her breakfast with a depressed look on her face. It tasted delicious, even better than what her mother cooked. It was a pity that it was cooked by her love rival, not to mention that the portion she was eating was given to her by her rival. This made the always competitive Eriri very unwilling. She must ask Mashu-chan for some cooking skills when she goes to school. She must not lose to this woman in front of her. While eating, Eriri decided on the direction she would focus on next.
Kyosuke looked at the strange atmosphere in front of him. He knew that whatever he said was wrong, so he should just enjoy the breakfast prepared by Xiaoyu. He used chopsticks to stir the heart-shaped shredded radish a little and then spread it on the grilled fish. He picked up a piece of grilled fish with shredded radish and put it in his mouth.
It tasted great, and Kyosuke believed that everyone at the table knew it, but at the same time, Kyosuke swore that no one present was in the mood to enjoy this extraordinary breakfast.
In the end, the Takasaka family’s breakfast, which was supposed to be full of warmth, ended in an eerie silence because of Tamamonomae’s intervention.

Chapter 18 Xiaoyu: Everything is under my control
After breakfast, Kirino left early because of club training. Before leaving, she deliberately glared at Xiaoyu. However, Xiaoyu seemed to not understand her gaze at all, and smiled and bowed to Kirino at the door to say goodbye.
“Sister Kirino, please take care. My husband doesn’t have work today, so I will prepare a rich dinner. Please come back early today.”
“Hmph.” Kirino responded with a sound and turned and left.
After seeing Kirino off, Tama returned to the kitchen to help Kaneo wash the dishes. Eriri, who was originally chatting with Kyosuke there, wanted to help after seeing Tama’s performance. However, she found that the sink was too small, and it was enough for two people to wash the dishes. It was totally unnecessary to squeeze in. This unnecessary feeling made Eriri feel a little isolated.
So when the three of them were finally ready and said goodbye to Kano at the entrance, Eriri still seemed very depressed.
““Then we go.””
“Everyone, be careful on the road.”
Kanono found that Eriri stayed at the back and did not leave with Kyosuke and Tama. Looking at Eriri who looked depressed, Kanono secretly made a gesture of encouragement to her.
“Eri-chan, come on, don’t lose to Tama.”
“Ah.”
Hearing Kano’s encouragement, Eriri nodded vigorously and quickly followed Kyosuke. She didn’t realize that Kano used the nickname “Tamamonomae” when referring to Tamamonomae.
After sending the children away, Kanao returned to the kitchen and found Daisuke still reading the newspaper leisurely.
“Husband. Aren’t you worried?” Jianao looked at Daisuke angrily.
Daisuke put down the newspaper and asked, “What are you worried about? Are you afraid that the girl is from our family and is here to steal our money and kill us?”
“Not really, but it feels like a dream that a girl I don’t even know suddenly came to my house and said she wanted to marry Kyosuke.” Kanao had a confused expression, and she seemed like she still couldn’t believe that everything that happened in the morning was real.
“Yeah, I was totally shocked when I woke up in the morning.” Daisuke recalled the scene when he met the other party in the morning. When Daisuke saw a stranger appearing in the kitchen for no reason and fiddling with something in the refrigerator, he thought it was a thief and almost called his colleagues to catch him.
However, when she saw him, she was not flustered at all. Instead, she smiled attentively and invited him to sit down at the table. Then she introduced herself as Kyosuke’s fiancée and moved into the Kosaka family since yesterday. Although her words were full of loopholes, for some reason, Daisuke at least believed that she was not a bad person like a thief.
Afterwards, Daisuke was very moved when he saw the girl busying around in the kitchen. At that moment, Daisuke really hoped that she was his daughter-in-law, but unfortunately he knew in his heart that this was completely impossible.
“I just feel sorry for Eriri-chan. It seems like she has no chance against Tama.” Kanano was a little confused about Tama. If it weren’t for Eriri, she would have been the perfect daughter-in-law. Although she didn’t spend more than three hours with Tama, Kanano already felt that she had all the attributes a perfect wife needed, such as beauty, virtue, and filial piety.
Kanano had always thought that Eriri was a very good daughter-in-law, but as the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. Compared with that child named Tamamonomae, Eriri’s current data as a wife is a bit far behind the other in all aspects.
“Hmph, you’re being too nosy. Kyosuke isn’t the kind of person you think he is.” Daisuke snorted, thinking that his wife’s worries were completely groundless. “And I don’t think that girl will really marry Kyosuke. I’ll ask my colleagues at work to help look up the information of the girl named Tamamonomae later today.”
“Are you saying that the girl approached Kyosuke with other purposes? But our family is not wealthy or high-ranking. I really can’t think of what purpose Xiaoyu has in approaching us so deliberately.” Kanao was a little worried about what Daisuke said. She didn’t want to believe that Xiaoyu was a bad person.
Have you already called her by her nickname? That girl’s friendliness is really scary. Even before breakfast, you were still firmly on Eriri’s side.
“What are you thinking? I didn’t say that the child is a bad person. But you can also see that the girl is definitely not the daughter of an ordinary family. Before you came, I talked to the girl. Although she didn’t tell me the truth, I still guessed some information from her words. I guess she is probably the eldest daughter of a Chinese family. She probably ran away from home after having a quarrel with her family. Later, she was penniless and slept on the street. She was seen by Kyosuke who was returning home from work. Your son brought her home out of kindness. She is more of a debt of gratitude to your son.”
Although Daisuke said that it was impossible for Kyosuke and Xiaoyu to be together, he still had the idea that it would be nice if that girl could really become his daughter-in-law. Recalling the warm scene of that girl and Kano washing dishes together after breakfast, Daisuke had the urge to make that scene a daily routine.
It seems that his son Kyosuke will be of marriageable age next year. Should he wait until Kyosuke turns 18 to register directly? Do it first and then ask for permission. In this way, even if the girl’s family comes to find him later, they will be unable to do anything about the marriage after seeing the fait accompli.
Daisuke suddenly realized that his idea was very dangerous, and quickly shook his head to drive this terrible idea out of his mind.
If Kyosuke heard Daisuke’s speculation, he would feel that Tama’s ability as a heroic spirit was too cheating. Even this kind of plot that only happened in comics would make people mistakenly think it was correct, and even made Daisuke and Kano subconsciously think of making Tama really become their daughter-in-law.
After Daisuke told her his guess, Kano felt something was wrong, but she couldn’t tell what it was. After a long silence, Kano looked up and saw that the time on the wall clock was already very late, and then she realized that Daisuke hadn’t left for work yet.
“Oh, it’s already so late. Are you taking a day off today? You’ll be late if you don’t leave now.”
“It’s okay, there’s no rush today.” Daisuke slowly finished the barley tea on the table, then got up and went to the room to change into a suit.
“What’s going on today?”
Daisuke put his clothes back on before answering Kanano’s question. He said hesitantly, “Well… there’s a new foreign guy in the police station. The boss assigned me to take him to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department today to handle some formalities.”
“This is really strange. Doesn’t your boss know that you are not good at dealing with foreigners? Why does he let you do this kind of thing?” Jianai knew very well that her husband was an idiot with foreign languages.
“Who knows. But fortunately, the young man speaks fluent Japanese, and he doesn’t seem like a foreigner at all. Thanks to this, communication between us is not a problem at all.” For Daisuke, the biggest problem in dealing with foreigners is the language. As long as there is no language barrier, he doesn’t care whether the other party is a foreigner or not. For example, Mr. Spencer, who also speaks fluent Japanese, is a good friend of Daisuke.
“But in that case, aren’t you going to pick him up? It’s a bit late to leave now. It’s not good to make others wait for you.”
“No, the guy said he would drive over to pick me up later. Looking at the time, it should be almost time.”
Sure enough, less than 10 minutes after Daisuke put on his clothes, the doorbell rang.
“Ding dong~”
“Senior, I’m here.” A very energetic voice came from the intercom.
“What a coincidence, that kid has arrived.” When Daisuke heard the voice, he knew that it was his junior who had arrived.
After hearing the bell, Jianai opened the door quickly and saw a tall blue-haired young man standing at the door. Although he was wearing a blue leather jacket and a braid at the back of his head, he looked more like a gangster than a policeman. However, his handsome appearance and straightforward personality that could be seen from his cheerful smile made Jianai have a good first impression of the young man.
“Welcome. You must be Daisuke’s new junior, thank you for coming to pick him up. Um…” Kanao then remembered that Daisuke did not tell her his name.
“Good morning, beautiful lady. My name is Cu Chulainn. I’m the new subordinate of Senior Daisuke. You must be his wife, you look so young.” Big Dog greeted Kanao with a sunny face.
“Oh my, you actually called me a beautiful lady. Qiu Linsan, you are so silly, I am not that young anymore.” Although Jianao was very happy that the other party praised her, she felt a little embarrassed by the other party’s excessive praise.
“I’m telling the truth. You are really young, sister-in-law.”
Da Gouzi didn’t think that what he said was exaggerated at all. Compared with a certain purple-haired old lady, Jianai was indeed countless times younger.
“Ku is right, Kanao, you have always been young.” At this time, Daisuke came out of the house after being dressed neatly and patted Kanao on the shoulder, while secretly giving Cu Chulainn a thumbs up.
“Hehe, what the senior said is absolutely right. Sister-in-law should have more confidence.”
Jianao felt a little shy because of the flattery from the two of them, and her face turned slightly red.
“Well, Ku. Let’s go. We have a lot of things to do today.” Daisuke waved goodbye to his wife, then got into a blue Toyota with Cu Chulainn.
