Chapter 248 Natsume’s Dating and Izumi’s Disagreement

"Eat." Asai also came to the kitchen door at this time, leaned against the door, and said to the steaming food on the table: "Aren't you hungry? I specially cooked it for you, why don't you eat it?"

Natsume Naoki looked at the crumbled parsley in the food and felt an unbearable taste spreading in his mouth.

It can't be described in words, it's similar to a sweetness that makes your temples bulge, making people instinctively lick their tongues and want to scrape off the taste buds on them.

This feeling is like people who don’t eat coriander see coriander, and people who don’t eat garlic see minced garlic.

It was like biting a piece of ginger disguised as meat when I was very hungry.

"This must not be parsley, right?" He still had some luck: "Last time it was just chopped basil."

Parsley looks like cilantro, while basil looks more like mint.

Natsume Naoki hates parsley but not basil.

"You'll know after you taste it." Asai still looked kind and raised his eyebrows, "Or is it that the food I worked hard all morning to cook is not to your taste?"

This was a question. Natsume Naoki shrank his neck and did not dare to answer.

If you dare to say no, it is equivalent to complaining that your mother's cooking is terrible, and you will have to cook the next meal yourself, which will be the lightest consequence.

"Do I look like that kind of person?" Natsume Naoki thought for a moment and suddenly said seriously: "Let me ask you, who cooks in our family?"

This sudden question made Asai frown, "What?"

Isn’t this asking knowingly?

"Just answer my question." Natsume Naoki said seriously.

Asai chuckled softly, wanting to see what tricks he was going to play: "Can you cook? Isn't it difficult for me to cook?"

"So, this family cannot live without you. Without you, there will be no one to cook, and the cat and I will starve to death."

As he spoke, Naoki Natsume took Asai's wrist and pulled her out of the kitchen, to the living room and sat on the sofa.

Then he said sadly: "You have been here for more than half a year. You have cooked three meals a day for these six months. Did you miss one meal one day?"

"Ah."

She snorted in her nose, but her eyes narrowed.

When you provoked yourself and ended up eating boiled eggs, you didn't say a word about it. Didn't you still hold the cat and go on a hunger strike like a resentful woman?

Then I would secretly follow the cat in the middle of the night to eat the snacks it had hidden, and let the cat beat him up.

Are you starting to praise people again?

Since my enlightenment returned, I have always lied.

It is always said that one's nature is hard to change, but I never thought that even if one loses his memory, as long as the lost attributes are replaced, the person will still be the same person.

When she was a child, she knew that Brother Naoki was the best at coaxing people. Not only did he coax little girls of the same age into being stunned, but even the surging female teachers in the kindergarten held him in their arms and kissed him every day.

But people change.

For example, I am no longer the little follower who agreed to be his girlfriend for a day just for a lollipop.

A few words are still far from enough.

As Natsume Naoki praised Asai, he quietly looked at Asai's expression and found that she was indifferent no matter what he said, and his heart sank deeper and deeper.

Nanami school doctor, what on earth did you show Asai?!

I usually don’t say more than five nice words, and even a big mistake should be smoothed over!

For example, if she accidentally throws her underwear into the washing machine along with her socks, just say a few nice words and go with her to buy another pair of underwear another day and it will be over.

He even occasionally let slip something about breast pads. At most, he held her hand and sat there. After five minutes, he calmed down and put down the slippers in his hand.

He looked at the perpetual calendar on the wall. It was almost twelve o'clock, and Asai still looked neither salty nor bland. Without oil and salt, it was useless to say anything.

I kept saying the words um and ah over and over again, and at most I nodded to show that I was still listening.

There was no other way, Natsume Naoki decided to use a trick.

"You have paid too much for this family, and I haven't even cooked a meal for you." Natsume Naoki was very sincere.

"How about I cook you a meal this noon?"

"what are you planning to do?"

Asai didn't say whether he agreed or disagreed first. He raised his head and asked, "It's too disrespectful to ask you what you plan to do. If I ask the question another way, what will you do?"

"Hey, hey, this is a bit disrespectful." Natsume Naoki said sternly: "I still know how to fry instant noodles. Boil them in water first, then put them in cold water and set aside, and then fry them in oil."

"There is no instant noodles at home." Asai said bluntly.

It's ironic to the maid that she keeps instant noodles at home. The next handful of noodles is better than instant noodles.

Natsume Naoki was stunned, how could there be no instant noodles.

I relied on that thing to survive the entire last year.

send!

I don't know anything except the twelve ways to eat instant noodles. I can't even control the heat of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Either there are broken shells in the eggs or too much salt.

Seeing Natsume Naoki's dazed expression, Asai showed a smile.

See, without me you can't even eat.

"Then...I invite you, let's go out to eat." Natsume Naoki thought for a moment and suddenly said.

The tone suddenly slowed down, it was no longer to escape from Parsley, but simply to make Asai happy.

"Do you remember the last time we went out to eat?"

"Um."

Asai will never forget everything about his birthday in this life.

On the day when they turned eighteen, they went shopping and had to eat outside because of the rain. It was the first time they had lunch together.

In the evening, because of Natsume Naoki's unexpected cake, I made too much dinner that day and was very full, but the cake was very sweet.

"Let's go have dessert." Natsume Naoki smiled: "It's been almost half a year since I went out to go shopping and eat. After all, you are also a girl. It's not good for you to always deal with housework at home."

"I remember that you loved desserts. You ate all the cake on your birthday night by yourself."

Upon hearing this, Asai tilted his head slightly, and an imperceptible blush flashed across his face.

He said it as if he was good at eating.

It's just because the cake that day was of great significance - the cake for my coming-of-age ceremony was given by my favorite person.

"No need to waste money." Asai finally said softly: "I lied to you. In fact, I haven't eaten yet. I'll eat the ones with parsley, and I can make another one for you."

"That's just right." Natsume Naoki smiled slightly and said in his prime, "You can have more belly and eat more desserts."

Asai looked at him seriously.

Ah, very good.

It's still the way I like it, and I like it more and more.

She nodded slightly, got up and changed her clothes.

Natsume Naoki also packed up. If nothing else happened in the afternoon, he would go to watch a movie after dinner. In short, it would take a long time to go shopping. It would be best to walk from Shinjuku to Shibuya, and then from Shibuya to Arakawa.

The purpose of a date is to bring two people closer, but Natsume's outing is the other way around, for two close people to go out and relax.

Not dating is better than dating.

"Don't say such things next time."

"What kind?"

"About desserts and cakes...it sounds like I have a big appetite."

"Okay, okay, that... about the school nurse, I think it's a misunderstanding. I actually didn't..."

"Needless to say, the phone is no longer repaired and it's time to get a new one."

"I'll help you pay."

"I have my own money."

“Revenue from YouTube subscriptions?”

"Um."

"It's not necessary. You are considered a member of my family when you enter my house. As long as you are a maid for one day, I should bear your expenses."

"You mean family?"

"Yes, family."

"Family...Okay, I listen to you."

The sound faded away and he quickly closed the door and left.

The younger sister was shaking in the cage with her eyes wide open, thinking to herself, what will I eat if you two leave?
