Noble District, the Omaeda residence.
After arriving at the Omaeda residence via the transfer pillar, Duan Mu and Omaeda headed straight toward the dining room.
"Who exactly was the person you said wanted to see me?"
"You'll know when you see him."
Omaeda shook his head and did not elaborate.
Hearing this, Duan Mu did not continue asking. They were already here, so he would naturally find out who wanted to see him in a moment.
However...
Duan Mu looked at the "exceedingly magnificent" courtyard around him, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
The layout of this courtyard had really changed again!
Although Omaeda often invited him here for meals, Duan Mu felt unfamiliar every time he came.
Every so often, the Omaeda family would renovate the place, with the entire style arranged according to the tastes of whoever had proposed the renovation.
Sometimes it was Omaeda's parents, sometimes his younger brother and sister, and sometimes Omaeda himself...
These wicked nouveau riche!
"What do you think? The courtyard I decorated is pretty nice, right?"
Omaeda, who had been watching Duan Mu's reaction all along, grinned smugly. "You should feel lucky to have a friend like me. Otherwise, with that shabby shop of yours, you wouldn't be qualified to see this luxurious and noble courtyard even if you worked until you died."
Duan Mu ignored him.
The man had always been a man of terrible taste. As far as Duan Mu knew, apart from constantly inviting him over to admire the courtyard and observing his reaction,
he also loved having Shuhei Hisagi come here to eat leftovers, then watching Shuhei Hisagi's reaction to satisfy his own need to show off.
While chatting, the two arrived outside the dining room.
But before they could enter, two little girls ran out giggling.
