Rikki's Legs Really Were Something

The title of "stepmother in a prime-time drama" is well-deserved.

"You didn't dial the wrong number. She's a very nice person, and she likes the lamp very much," Riki said.

Nagasaki Sose seemed to be deep in thought. If Riki's mother even liked lamps, then she definitely wouldn't have any problems either.

Their phones were confirmed to be able to send messages, perhaps due to the time travel aspect, but only Sakiko's phone could make direct calls.

Nagasaki Sose returned home, changed into slippers, and confidently sat on her bed, picking up her phone to chat with Riki's mother.

Nagasaki Sose: [Hello Mom, my name is Nagasaki Sose, and I'm Riki's only girlfriend. Nice to meet you. I'm currently learning Chinese, and I hope I can talk to you in Chinese too.]

Aunt Lu: [It's okay, I understand Japanese.]

That's great.

And the first impression seems pretty good?

Nagasaki Sose felt a surge of pride.

Nagasaki Sose: [I really like cooking, so I can cook for Riki with my mom sometime.]

Lu's mother: [He really likes Braised Eggplant.]

Huh?

Is that so?

Nagasaki Sose: [Indeed.]

Lu's mother: [I remembered wrong, I think he likes scrambled eggs, he's easy to please.]

"..." Nagasaki Sose.

She was sweating.

Nagasaki Sose: [Looks like I remembered it wrong too. He says everything I make is delicious, so that's probably why I remembered it wrong.]

Lu's Mom: [(smiling)]

That expression looks a little uneasy.

Nagasaki Sose sat up straight, sweat beading on her forehead.

Aunt Lu: [It's alright, I have a very good impression of Su Shi, except for that blue-haired girl named Sakiko.]

Nagasaki Sose: [May I ask how many people you've spoken to?]

Aunt Lu: [For now, it's just the two of you, you and Sakiko. You're talking to Sakiko on the phone. Sakiko is really amazing; no wonder you were so eager to call me 'Mom.' It's normal to be afraid of her.]

"..." Nagasaki Sose fell silent.

At least... Riki's mother's attitude was still very good.

Right?

Nagasaki Sose's expression stiffened.

I can't sleep tonight.

Two flowers bloomed, each... (I forgot the rest).

When Riki arrived at her front door, she heard Toyokawa Sakiko's voice from inside. Opening the door, she saw Toyokawa Sakiko sitting calmly at the table, smiling and talking on her phone. When she saw Riki return, Toyokawa Shoko gave a soft shushing gesture with her index finger and winked.

I understand, I'll go under the car first.

It won't disturb your phone call with my mom.

"Yes, Aunt Lu, Riki has helped me a lot. I wouldn't have made it this far without him. Thanks to him, I can sit here and talk to you." Toyokawa Sakiko said with a gentle smile.

"I usually do the cooking, but Riki helps out too, even though he's a bit clumsy. Yes, he is a little awkward in some ways, but that's all that matters, Riki."

"When would you like to come over for dinner? I'm afraid it will be a little while... Okay, then please take care of me in the future."

Toyokawa Sakiko hung up the phone, looked up at Riki, and chuckled, "Riki's mother is a very intelligent person. She startled me a little; I thought I was talking to my grandmother. But... she was careful not to mention anything that would upset me. She's much gentler than my grandmother."

It seems the two supreme beings had been battling for quite some time before I arrived at their home.

You didn't talk on the phone for an hour, did you?

It seems they are evenly matched, so there shouldn't be any problems with the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship in the future.

Toyokawa Sakiko suddenly burst into tears, stood up, and gently hugged Riki.

"Sakiko?"

Toyokawa Sakiko said softly, "Riki, your mother is truly a very gentle person. This is the first time I've ever felt that way."

Unlike the Toyokawa Family, this was normal and kind concern.

Riki patted her head and said, "Of course, how could a woman who can raise me be a bad person?"

Although she remains a major enemy of our Lu family.

"Mm." Toyokawa Sakiko wiped away her tears and smiled at Riki.

"Let's start making dinner."

Riki Toyokawa Sakiko started cooking dinner. Mujica had finished another performance yesterday, and although the money wasn't much, it was starting to fill Sakiko's wallet a little better. At least it wasn't just Riki eating meat; Sakiko was starting to eat meat too.

Unfortunately, it's just pork.

"Next chapter, beef!" Riki declared, setting her sights on the future.

In the next episode, I won't eat beef!

The following day, Hanasakigawa's day off, Shiina Riki was very anxious at home.

Are we really going to call Riki over?

Shiina Riki hesitated for a long time, then suddenly thought of Sakiko and Sose, and felt a pang of anxiety. Had he... fallen behind?

No, no, no, but that's way too outrageous!

Shiina Riki hesitated once again, torn between two opposing forces: the fear of being surpassed by Sakiko and Suze, and his own sense of shame. The scales swayed a few times, and finally, Sakiko and Suze's side swayed slightly to the side.

"He didn't say what he'd do, so I'll just call him over and have him teach me composition," Shiina Riki decided.

If I get too shy later, I can just kick Riki out!

Okay, let's do it that way!

Shiina Riki sends Riki a message: [Riki, come to my house and take a look at the music.]

Chapter 154 Rikki's legs are indeed...

How long did Shiina Riki struggle with Tsundere inner conflict before finally sending this message?

Riki didn't understand yet, but this was a once-in-a-century change, a golden opportunity to take down the stern and domineering Rikki. So he stepped onto the bicycle he had borrowed from Kaname Runa's house and started pedaling like a madman!

"Riki, you're in such a hurry!" Kaname Runa, licking her ice cream in front of her house and looking at Riki with her heterochromatic eyes.

Who's getting impatient?

"I'll return your bike tonight. I'm heading to Rikki's house now. Do you want me to bring you some food?" Riki, not wanting to Kaname Runa, asked her while sitting on the bicycle.

"Popsicles," Kaname Runa said.

Is meat okay?

No way! Cat is still a middle school student. If I say dirty things to her, I'll become a novice myself. I'd be damned!

"Okay, then wait for me to come back," Riki said.

"Riki, you've been getting along really well with everyone lately," Kaname Runa said to Riki. "I also want to get along well with Riki."

What are you talking about? Isn't our bond as thieves already very deep?

"I want to go out and play with Riki by myself," Kaname Runa said.

Okay, let's go to a family-friendly restaurant and order two kids' meals. Don't you dare steal my toys then!

If you have any Batman merchandise, you should give me yours too. I'm a long-time Batman fan, and I'm from Haicheng, no explanation needed.

It's settled then, okay?

Riki rode her bicycle, and talking to the cat was still easy; she didn't feel any gravity at all, just like talking to Cat Spirit.

"Ding-dong~"

Footsteps came from behind the door. Shiina Riki opened the door and peeked in. Seeing Riki, she said, "Come in."

Rikki, I'm coming in.

Riki followed Rikki into her room. Shiina's older sister's room was still closed, just like Riki's imagination of a college student on the weekend—a Salted Fish.

"Here, I only have Oolong Tea in my room."

Take out two cups and pour in Oolong Tea.

Shiina Riki was wearing a loose white sweatshirt with a panda print, revealing her long, fair legs. It looked like the kind of clothes she liked to wear at home. On the table was the Panda Pendant she had gotten with Riki earlier, and on the computer screen was music production software, which looked like the result of a whole night's work.

"Working so hard?" Riki asked.

"Since it's a song that the lantern will be playing at the school anniversary celebration, of course we have to put in a lot of effort." Shiina Riki turned to Riki and said, "Come and take a look too, I need your... um, your help."

Riki sat closer and helped Shiina Riki revise the piece for a while, leaving both of them a little stiff. Fortunately, the progress was encouraging. Shiina Riki stretched, revealing her soft, white belly, and said, "Let's call it a day..."

As she was saying this, she suddenly realized that she and Riki had gradually gotten very close while talking about music, and she could clearly see Riki's eyes. Then, when Riki kissed her, she was looking at him.

"Alright, you should go back now," Shiina Riki said, pushing Riki, but she couldn't budge him.

Riki looked at Shiina Riki.

Rikki knew what he was thinking. Her face flushed with anger, she paced around the room, pointed at Riki, and said, "Hurry up and finish this, do you hear me!"

It won't be fast, buddy, you've put too much stamina into it.

Riki sat on Shiina Riki's bed and let Rikki sit on his lap. He finally felt what Rikki's perfect body felt like. Her peach-shaped buttocks were incredibly elastic. Looking at her face full of embarrassment and annoyance, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her again. Shiina Riki closed her eyes and gently kissed him back. Then she suddenly frowned. How come this guy is so skilled?

Sakiko's face immediately flashed through her mind.

At that moment, Shiina Riki felt something pressing against her thighs. Realizing what it was, her ears turned bright red, and she didn't even dare to look down at her thighs.

"What should we do next?" Shiina Riki whispered.

"You move, or I'll do it..."

"No!"

It feels even more dangerous if you come!

Shiina Riki felt like a scorching volcano was pressing between her thighs, her face flushed red, and she knew that this thing was about to...

"Rikki, are my vitamins in your room? I'll come in and check..."

Suddenly, Riki and Shiina Riki in the room heard Shiina's older sister's voice; the doorknob had already been pressed down.

"Wait!" Shiina Riki suddenly shouted, startling Shiina's older sister so much that she dared not speak, and the doorknob sprang up again.

"W-what's wrong?" Shiina's older sister asked, bewildered, from outside the door.

Rikki, why have you become so fierce? Are you in a bad mood?

Shiina Riki's face turned bright red. How could she let her sister see her and Riki in this situation?

"No, absolutely not! I don't have any vitamins in my room!"

"Hey, but didn't you take the wrong one before? Let me go in and check."

"No!"

Shiina Riki's body stiffened; she was still sitting on Riki, and they were doing that.

"Wait, wait a minute," Shiina Riki said hurriedly to Riki, "My sister is outside."

No, the shells are already loaded and they're right at our doorstep.

Even if Riki were a marshal, he couldn't control the soldiers below him anymore.
