On the long slope, Luo Shu held up the parasol that Kasumigaoka Utaha had forced upon him when he went out, and strolled to the top of the slope. Looking to the left, he saw a European-style villa garden.
He glanced at the chic blue and white residence across the wall, took a few slow steps, came to the gate of the villa, raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.
jingle!
The doorbell rang slowly, and then there was a click, and a formal female voice sounded:
"This is the Sawamura household. May I ask who you are?"
Hearing the sound, Luo Shu put away his parasol, turned his head to look at the camera on the doorbell, and said with a smile:
"Excuse me, I'm Luo Shu, who I had an appointment to visit this morning."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, the long railing door opened automatically with a rustling sound. Seeing this, Luo Shu opened his parasol, stepped through the gate, and walked along the road to the main entrance.
And there, a black-haired maid with neat short hair, narrow eyes, and a slightly sharp temperament was already standing there waiting quietly.
"excuse me."
The black-haired maid bowed to Luo Shu and said:
"I'm Rurikawa Chiyo from the Sawamura family."
"Please follow me next. Madam is waiting for you."
After Liulichuan finished speaking, she turned sideways, as if she was about to lead Luo Shu forward, but the moment she turned her head, she saw the slightly surprised look on Luo Shu's face.
"What's wrong, guest?" Rurikawa Chiyo asked, tilting her head.
"It's okay, I'm just a little surprised." Luo Shu responded casually without any intention of explaining, he just said "what a pity".
Seeing this, Liu Lichuan Chiyo nodded, without asking what "what a pity" meant, she just turned around expressionlessly and led Luo Shu forward.
The two crossed the hall, passed through the corridor on the right side of the hall, and stopped in front of the living room.
dong dong!
Liu Lichuan Chiyo knocked on the door and immediately said seriously:
"Madam, Mr. Luo Shu is here."
After the words fell, a response came from inside the door:
"Please come in."
Rurikawa Chiyo immediately pushed the door open and then stood aside.
Seeing this, Luo Shu nodded and walked into the living room.
As soon as he entered the room, Luo Shu saw Sayuri Sawamura, wearing a simple kimono with red and white stripes, sitting on a khaki sofa. She was fixing her hair and showing a friendly and sweet smile:
"Oh my, I didn't expect it was you, Luo Shujun, who came to visit~ I was really shocked when I received the call this morning."
"I'm so sorry to bother you."
When Luo Shu heard this, he stood aside and apologized.
Just as he expected, Sawamura Eriri never told her about his plan to make a "home visit".
Fortunately, he had given me a heads up in the morning and made an appointment to visit in the afternoon, so nothing went wrong.
However, before Luo Shu could finish his apology, Sayuri Sawamura patted the sofa next to her and said:
"Okay, okay, stop being so pretentious, come~ come and sit over here~"
After saying that, Sayuri Sawamura turned around and said to Rurikawa Chiyo who was standing at the door:
"Chiyoko, go and prepare two servings of afternoon tea for me. Use the best ones."
"Yes." Rurikawa Chiyo nodded, then closed the door and left.
At this time, Luo Shu walked calmly to the side and sat down opposite Sayuri Sawamura.
"Eh~~"
Sayuri Sawamura stretched out her tone, and stopped patting the sofa beside her. Instead, she rested her elbows on her knees, held her cheeks, and looked at Luo Shu and said:
"Is Luo Shujun such a conservative child?"
Looking at Sayuri Sawamura, who didn't look like an elder at all and was just like a naughty child, Luo Shu's eyelids twitched, and then he complained:
"Madam, do you really have no idea why I came here?"
Although Luo Shu knew that Eriri probably wouldn't be able to bring up the matter of 'home visit', he didn't believe that Sayuri Sawamura wouldn't be able to guess it.
With Eriri Sawamura's strength, the contents of her stomach should have been completely emptied by the woman in front of her.
"I don't know~"
Sayuri Sawamura drew out a long tail sound, and then smiled and said:
"Eri-ri didn't say anything, so I just didn't know. Can Luo Shu-jun understand what I mean?"
"I see. You know everything now."
Luo Shu nodded suddenly, as if he had confirmed something:
"That's right. After all, the Sawamura family is also a samurai family. It's normal for them to have channels to learn about the situation."
Compared with Yukinoshita, the local boss of Chiba, the Sawamura family is considered the "local boss" of Tokyo.
There is still a difference between the local tyrants in the capital and the prominent families in the countryside, especially when this prominent family is just a new one.
Seeing this, Sayuri Sawamura did not refute, but just smiled:
"So, what are you doing here today, Luo Shujun?"
Luo Shu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said:
“The first is to apologize.”
As for the apology for dragging Eriri into the mysterious side without authorization, after all, it was Luo Shu who pulled Eriri into the group out of considerations of his own interests.
"And secondly, we need to discuss what Eriri should do next."
"Eh~~"
Sayuri Sawamura slightly widened her eyes, then looked Luo Shu up and down, and then asked in a low voice:
"Excuse me, in what capacity did Luo Shujun come here?"
"Is it the teacher?" Sayuri Sawamura asked cautiously, observing Luo Shu's expression from time to time: "Or... more intimate?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu pondered for a moment, then said:
"It's closer than you think."
"If I may, I would like to apologize to you as someone who is 'destined to be entangled for life.'"
Sayuri Sawamura's eyes were already sparkling at this time, and her expression was like a hunter who saw a rabbit hitting a tree, a bird pecking at corn, and half a foot in a trap. She said with joy that she had finally harvested the harvest and was about to be freed:
".' I accept your apology."
"It's just that... Luo Shujun seems to have deliberately used a very misleading expression~~"
Sayuri Sawamura finished speaking meaningfully, then paused and added:
"Has my Eriri realized it?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu's mouth twitched and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Sayuri Sawamura, who had been paying attention to Luo Shu's expression, understood something instantly and sighed:
"I see. I know the situation now. As expected, that child is really a cause for concern."
Even the son-in-law has come to visit, but the daughter is still confused. In this situation, even Sayuri Sawamura, who was the initiator of Eriri's character, felt helpless.
"Yeah, it's really a headache."
Hearing Sayuri Sawamura complaining about Eriri, Luo Shu couldn't hold back his words:
"I've already explained the risks of entering the mysterious side, but she's still confused. Although I don't mind her enjoying a normal life, it's a bit of a pity to see her wasting her talent."
Without any training, he has excellent abilities upon awakening. This talent is already considered excellent among the mysterious (Wang Nuo) side.
Normal martial artists and Yin-Yang masters who want to reach an 'excellent' level of ability basically have to start from childhood at the age of six or seven, and focus on practicing until the age of thirteen or fourteen before they can achieve something.
Even so, children who practice cultivation must have some talent. If their talent is average, they may have to wait until they are 30 or 40 years old, when they are old enough to get married and start a family.
Perhaps because her power was gained overnight, Eriri's personality seems much more casual, and she gives off a feeling of giving up.
For Luo Shu, it is very dangerous to play badly on the mysterious side. Only the strong ones are qualified to do so.
After listening to Luo Shu's complaints, or rather the first sentence, Sayuri Sawamura seemed to have figured something out and reminded Dao Kuang:
"How about letting Eriri become Luo Shu-kun's canary?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu's expression suddenly became extremely subtle.
He took a look at the serious look on Sayuri Sawamura's face, and his face twitched involuntarily:
"Ma'am, you are a bit extreme!"
——I just wanted Eriri to realize that she needs to be strong, but you want her to die! ! .
Chapter 77 She likes it very much!
"excuse me."
Rurikawa Chiyo carried a plate and placed a small plate of yokan, three small plates of mochi, two cups of black tea, and some toothpicks in front of Sawamura Sayuri and Luo Shu, then took her leave.
Sayuri Sawamura used a toothpick to pick up a piece of yokan, put it into her mouth, covered her mouth and chewed it for a while, then swallowed it, put down her hand and looked at the silent Luo Shu opposite her and said:
"Were you startled by me?"
"A little."
Luo Shu sighed, then said with an awkward but polite smile:
"After all, Canary....Alas..."
Luo Shu didn't want to say anything more. He thought about it carefully and felt that Canary was quite suitable for Ying Lili.
As long as he can protect her, Ying Lili will continue to be a special book artist and continue to run wild on the road of painting.
If you think about it carefully, this might have been the Sawamura family's previous strategy.
Thinking of raising his only daughter to this state, Luo Shu couldn't help but admire him:
"Madam is really generous."
"Don't say such irritating words."
Sayuri Sawamura seemed a little angry. She stabbed the mochi hard with a toothpick and snorted:
“I tried my best!”
"But I don't know what happened to that child. She has learned all my husband's laziness and my shortcomings, but she has not learned any of my strengths."
Are you sure it's just a tiny flaw? And not just a tiny bit? Luo Shu looked a little suspicious.
"It's really... I'm so mad."
Sayuri Sawamura complained softly, then put the mochi into her mouth, swallowed it, and said:
"The only thing to be thankful for is that the child has some talent for acting. At least, the fact that the Sawamura family's daughter is a lady from a wealthy family is still recognized."
A lady from a noble family? Luo Shu had a lot of questions in his mind.
Seeing him like this, Sayuri Sawamura's expression became subtle and she explained:
"It's the personality she displays in school. Isn't Luo Shu-kun in the same school as Eriri?"
"I taught myself." Luo Shu responded.
"Self-taught?" Sayuri Sawamura suddenly realized something, "That's right, Fengzhizaki is just a 'school' after all."
Saying so, Sayuri Sawamura shook her head and smiled at Luo Shu:
"So, Xiao Luoshu, um, it's okay to call you that, right?"
