Riki pushed open the door and returned to the room with Toyokawa Sakiko.

"I'm so tired." Toyokawa Sakiko wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled gently at Riki. "Summer is here, and the air is so hot and humid. I sweat even after walking a little bit. Riki, do you want to take a shower?"

People who say this usually want to take a bath.

Furthermore, girls with larger breasts tend to sweat more easily due to the cleavage.

"Sakiko, go ahead. I'm not in a hurry," said Riki.

Wait, if it's urgent, can I take a bath with Sakiko?

"Thank you," Toyokawa Sakiko said with a smile, opening the window in the room. A gentle breeze blew in, making the wind chimes hanging on the window tinkle, and the chirping of cicadas came from the distant trees. The sun was shining brightly.

She had only lived with Riki for a little over ten days, but it felt like an eternity. The suffocating days that had previously weighed on her were finally over.

As Toyokawa Sakiko finished washing up quickly and changed into her home clothes, she came out and suddenly heard the sound of glass breaking next door.

"Huh?"

Toyokawa Sakiko paused for a moment, instinctively.

The room next door was also hers... no, to be precise, it wasn't just her room alone; it was originally the room she shared with her father.

Dad's back?

Toyokawa Sakiko suddenly felt a little flustered and quickly looked at Riki in the room. When she saw him, she felt much more at ease. She walked over and took his hand, her shoulders trembling slightly.

"Riki, is my father back?" Toyokawa Sakiko asked Riki in a trembling voice.

She could ruthlessly part ways with her former bandmates, and as a high school student, she could withstand pressure and negotiate with a group of adults. However, when facing her parents, she was still powerless, still the weak Toyokawa Sakiko.

"Yes, it's right next door," Riki nodded. "He came back just as you went to take a shower."

Toyokawa Sakiko gripped Riki's hand tightly.

"Riki, shall we wait here until he leaves?" Toyokawa Sakiko said softly.

"... good."

Riki hesitated for a moment.

He actually wanted to go out and have a man-to-man battle with Toyokawa's father; he had even bought a baseball bat a long time ago, just in preparation for this situation.

But seeing Sakiko's trembling appearance, he was still willing to sit down and stay by Sakiko's side.

The rooms here aren't well soundproofed, so you can hear Toyokawa's father rummaging through things and talking to himself from next door.

"Isn't this the period when scholarships are awarded? Where did she hide the money?"

"I'm not going there to lose money, I'm going there to make money from Pachinko. Kids don't understand anything!"

"Why is she keeping so much useless stuff? Where's the money?!"

No rush, I'm building up my rage bar.

Riki frowned as she watched Toyokawa Sakiko gradually calm down.

"It's okay, he doesn't know you're living with me next door," Riki said.

If they came knocking on your door, it would be easy to handle; Riki used a series of moves to send him to the hospital.

"Hmm." Toyokawa Sakiko nodded gently, but clenched her fists again upon hearing the familiar voice from next door.

That person hasn't changed at all since leaving the Toyokawa Family.

The sound of rummaging through things continued for more than half an hour before stopping. He slammed his fist on the table in frustration, walked out of the room, and slammed the door shut.

Toyokawa Sakiko breathed a sigh of relief.

I've finally left.

With that person by her side, she felt the dark days she had just left the Toyokawa Family were still with her, making her heart uneasy.

Suddenly, Toyokawa Sakiko saw Riki get up and pick up a baseball bat, and quickly asked, "Riki, what are you doing?"

She didn't want Riki to end up in jail because of the violence.

Her father wasn't worth trading one for one with Riki.

In Toyokawa Sakiko's heart, Riki was far more important; she was her only pillar of support, and without Riki, she wouldn't even have the will to live.

"Don't worry, Sakiko, I don't want to trade one for one with your old man, that's just too much of a waste, it's not even as cost-effective as a 648." Riki turned to look at Sakiko and smiled, "But I can still help you vent your anger a little."

Toyokawa Sakiko paused for a moment.

Venturing...?

Riki stepped outside and saw Feng Chuan's father walking and cursing on the street. She turned back and shouted to Sakiko, "Sakiko, take the baseball out of the cabinet and throw it for me."

"Huh?" Toyokawa Sakiko hurriedly pulled a baseball from the cabinet. "Is this it? What do I do with it?"

"Throw it, throw it this way!"

It was the first time Toyokawa Sakiko had ever thrown a baseball, and in a panic, she threw the ball toward Riki.

Riki swung the baseball bat hard, sending the baseball flying through the air with a whooshing sound. It slammed into Feng Chuan's father's back, causing him to cry out in pain and fall to the ground.

"Whose kid is playing baseball around here? Don't they know this is a residential area?!"

Riki turned to the dazed Toyokawa Sakiko and said, "Now we're accomplices. If we get caught, you can't betray me."

Toyokawa Sakiko was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and looked at Riki. A smile gradually appeared on her face, and she nodded vigorously. "Yes!"

Although he did something bad.

Moreover, it was something he would never have done before: helping Riki bully someone, and that person was even his own father.

But... it's so enjoyable!

I'm so happy.

With her hands behind her back, Toyokawa Sakiko looked at Riki and smiled, "I love you the most."

It's a universal truth that Toyokawa Sakiko loves Riki.

It is only natural.

Toyokawa Sakiko walked to her old room, opened the door, saw the mess inside, sighed deeply, tied her hair back, rolled up her sleeves, and started cleaning the room.

"Didn't the Toyokawa Family take care of your father?" Riki asked.

Toyokawa Sakiko shook her head slightly. "Dad... was kicked out and has nothing to do with the Toyokawa Family anymore."

She hesitated for a moment before adding, "We're not even related by blood."

He married into the family.

Riki nodded. So Sakiko still has half of the Toyokawa Family's DNA, which is probably why Sakiko's grandmother was willing to help her instead of Toyokawa's father.

This reasoning is very blood-based, very Japanese.

When will we see a classic Japanese anime about fatalism?

For example, Toyokawa Sakiko has to marry Riki in every timeline.

Riki went to take a shower. After taking the subway back, he played baseball again, which made him sweat a lot. The rush hour on the Japanese subway is on par with Guangzhou – pure hell on earth.

Toyokawa Sakiko cleaned her previous room and returned to the room she shared with Riki. Seeing a message on Riki's phone on the table, she called out to Riki in the bathroom, "Riki, you have a message on your phone."

"Could you reply to this for me?"

Riki replied from the bathroom.

Toyokawa Sakiko picked up Riki's phone and unlocked it with her fingerprint. Riki had previously registered her fingerprint on the phone, so she could also unlock it. She said that she had no secrets from Sakiko and could see everything except the browser history.

Toyokawa Sakiko was puzzled; weren't chat messages more important?

Why is browser history more important to Riki?

What does he usually watch?

Sakiko was very curious, but she was a girl with a high sense of morality. Although she could look, this was the first time she had picked up Riki's phone. The messages on the phone were a group chat of Riki's band members, and the group chat was called 'Uchiha Clan (Clan Extermination Version)'.

Are they close enough to call each other family?

Rokko: [Uchiha - Riki, Bao, lend me your thesis on Ma Chao for reference. Ma Chao's is too technical; I always feel that his attempt to overthrow the principal's autocratic rule could easily harm innocent bystanders.]

Toyokawa Sakiko had also learned quite a bit of Chinese recently, thought for a moment and replied: [Sorry, Riki went to take a shower and is temporarily unavailable. It's better if you do your own homework.]

The group chat fell silent for a long time before all the members popped up and tapped Riki with WeChat's "Tap" feature.

Rokko: [Idiot Riki, are you cosplaying?]

Toyokawa Sakiko sensed that he was a little flustered, but she didn't know why.

Toyokawa Sakiko replied again, "[He'll be back soon, don't worry. Also, you shouldn't use foul language; that's uncivilized behavior.]"

The group chat remained silent for a long time.

This is definitely not something Riki would say.

Rokko: [... Ahem, hello, could you send a voice message to prove it?]

He still harbored doubts.

Toyokawa Sakiko pressed the voice prompt button, secretly glancing towards the bathroom. Seeing that Riki hadn't come out yet, she blushed and whispered, "Hello everyone, I'm Riki's wife. I like him very much, please don't bully him, okay?"

Her voice is youthful and energetic, soft and with a JK (high school girl) vibe.

You don't even need to see her posture; you can tell she's a super pretty girl just by hearing her voice.

The group chat remained silent for a long time before members started sending out clown emojis of a character gradually putting on a red nose. The speed at which they flooded the chat caught Toyokawa Sakiko off guard. What was going on with everyone?

Even the group chat name has been changed to 'Gotham Dark Knight'.

Rokko: [Riki, come back here! (crying loudly) She just wanted to lure you out of the Goblin Cave to level up. These holy maidens are all up to no good. Don't be fooled by them! (crying loudly)]

Why does it feel like Riki is more like his pillar of support? Sakiko felt a little flustered.

Riki came out of the bathroom and saw Toyokawa Sakiko looking helpless.

"?" Riki.

*****

Are there any tickets left? (Peering in)

Chapter 163 Giving the Light Artificial Respiration

"Riki, I... I'm going to take another shower. I sweated a lot while cleaning the room."

Upon seeing Riki, Toyokawa Sakiko quickly put down her phone, blushing and waving her hand, saying, "Also, don't listen to the voice messages I sent; I sent them to the wrong person."

"?" Riki.

Seeing Toyokawa Sakiko run back into the bathroom, Riki was completely puzzled. What had Sakiko done?

Teacher Da Xiang, can't you even check my browser history?

No, I clear my browsing history every time I finish watching. With Teacher Da Xiang 'Aine meager knowledge of modern electronics, it's impossible for him to recover the browsing history unless he finds a C programming expert.

Riki looked at the messages in the group chat on his phone. A series of messages were telling him to come back. Haicheng University was giving out gold bars and Succubus. He shouldn't be fooled by the saintess outside.

Riki sent a three-bean emoji: a smiley face, a finger, and a clown.

Regardless of their continued spamming in the group chat, Riki glanced at the bathroom and tapped on Sakiko's voice message. What exactly did Sakiko say that made them so defensive?

Does this mean that Teacher Da Xiang's darker side has reached its ultimate evolution in his customer service career, to the point that even they can't handle Teacher Da Xiang direct and scathing insults?

"Hello everyone, I'm Riki's wife. I like him very much, so please don't bully him, okay?"

Riki sighed after hearing this; no wonder they were so vulnerable.

Sakiko Gate, magnificent!

The summer breeze in June was warm, and the pretty girls on the street were all wearing short sleeves, revealing their fair arms. The sound of cicadas chirping was incessant.
