A Fairly Nice Christmas

"I'm starting!" *4

After exchanging greetings, the four began to enjoy their dinner.

Shuichi Kanda the first to pick up the soup and take a sip, finding it quite delicious.

"Ichinose's cooking is really good, it's delicious!"

"Hehehe, thanks for the compliment. What do you think, Shuichi?"

Before Shuichi Kanda could speak, Kushida began to praise him.

"Forehead..."

Before Shuichi Kanda could speak, Kamuro, sitting opposite him, put down his soup bowl. "It's not as good as Shuichi's, but it's still alright."

"Haha, I'll keep trying."

Then Ichinose took a sip of the soup and nodded, agreeing that it didn't taste as good as the chicken soup she had before.

"If Honami wants to learn, I can teach you how to cook."

"Really? Then I'll thank Shuichi in advance!"

Ichinose immediately showed a very happy expression, but...

You two, stop staring at me like that.

"Ahem, Kikyo and Masumi want to learn..."

"No need, one person who can cook is enough for a family." Before Shuichi Kanda could finish speaking, Kamuro Masumi refused outright, "Anyway, Shuichi will cook for me, right?"

Although what you said is all correct, it's still wrong for you to say it now...

"Even if Kamuro is Shuichi's childhood friend, you can't expect Shuichi to cook for you every day, can you? That would be really bothersome for me."

Kushida Kikyo's statement is also quite significant; are you two asserting your dominance against each other?

"Shuichi, I'll study hard and then cook for you!"

However, Ichinose's statement also drew the attention of the other two.

Then, the three began a new round of fighting over the prize.

Since Shuichi Kanda hasn't established a relationship with anyone, all three of them have a chance, and none of them want to give up on this opportunity.

And Shuichi Kanda...

They didn't dare to interrupt and could only eat in silence.

Despite Kamuro's words, Ichinose's cooking skills are truly excellent, comparable to the cafeteria food, and she's definitely at a level where she could open a restaurant.

"Shuichi, what do you think?"

What?

Shuichi Kanda, who was engrossed in eating, looked completely bewildered. "What do you mean, 'I think'?"

"What do you think we should do, Shuichi?"

Kushida, realizing that Kushida Shuichi Kanda hadn't been listening at all, immediately reminded him.

Faced with the gazes of the three, Shuichi Kanda forced himself to reveal his thoughts.

"Well, I think it's good that everyone gets along harmoniously." At this point, you absolutely must express your opinion. "After all, everyone is my wings!"

This is simply saying the most arrogant things in the most cowardly tone...

Then, after the atmosphere quieted down for a moment...

"Is Xiuyi planning to have his cake and eat it too?"

Kushida tilted his head.

"Are there three?"

Ichinose also said somewhat quietly.

Sure enough, even these two people wouldn't just give away the person they like, especially since this person doesn't have a girlfriend yet.

"I think it's a good idea."

Kamuro's words resonated with both Kushida and Ichinose; they both saw disbelief in each other's eyes and looked over at the same time.

Shuichi Kanda hand, was thrilled. "Masumi! I love you!"

"Kamuro, what did you just say?"

Kushida's tone was skeptical; she couldn't believe what Kamuro had just said.

This guy's planning to have three girlfriends at the same time, huh?!

You actually agreed?

Are you really that humble?

"There's nothing wrong with that, is there? The Kanda Family has quite a large business, so supporting a few more people won't be a problem."

Kamuro spoke calmly, completely unconcerned about the three people's shocked expressions.

"What does the Kanda Family's business have to do with me?" Shuichi Kanda looked confused.

However, he didn't care about that. He had a system behind him. Putting everything else aside, as long as he had the opportunity to create Value-Added Bank in the future, assets and such were just trivial matters.

That's why Shuichi Kanda dared to say those things. After all, if he couldn't even guarantee a basic standard of living, Shuichi Kanda wouldn't dare to make such a boast or make such a request.

"But are you really willing to give Shuichi away?" Kushida's face showed a resentful expression. She had known about Shuichi Kanda's ambition for a long time, but she had never given him an answer.

"What can we do? Who told this guy to be such a womanizer! He falls in love with every girl he sees!" Kamuro said, giving Shuichi Kanda fierce glare.

Shuichi Kanda could only silently endure it without saying a word, while thinking to himself, "Masumi, as expected of my childhood friend, she understands me so well, but I don't fall in love with every girl I meet."

However, Masumi hadn't expected Shuichi Kanda to stand by him. He didn't think he'd mentioned anything like this before, so why was this happening?

Helping me build my harem?

Masumi!

You have the bearing of a first wife!

If I were the king, then you would be the queen!

Kushida was still unwilling to accept it, Ichinose was still struggling with his decision, while Kamuro was leisurely eating his meal.

"Anyway, there's still plenty of time. You can take your time to consider it. If you give up, that would be even better. That way, Shuichi will be mine alone."

Kushida and Ichinose, who were still hesitating, were provoked by Kamuro's words.

For Kushida, Shuichi Kanda's position is irreplaceable; it's unlikely that any other boy would accept her true personality.

For Ichinose, Shuichi Kanda of a kind. How could she possibly give him up so easily?

What if Kamuro is playing a trick? What if she's just deliberately agreeing with Shuichi Kanda's idea to make him back down?

In short, we absolutely cannot give up now. As long as Shuichi isn't married, I still have a chance!

Even if you get married, you might still get divorced!

After calming down, Shuichi Kanda secretly glanced at the three of them.

It feels like... the matter is resolved just like that?

As expected of you!

Masumi!

Chapter 225 A Pretty Good Christmas

In his previous life, Shuichi Kanda had heard a saying.

That means Japanese girls have a guaranteed minimum payment; as long as you have money, they can act in front of you for a lifetime.

Shuichi Kanda's reaction to this behavior was: Isn't this fine too?

If I'm rich for life, wouldn't that be like marrying the perfect wife?

What? That's not enough? You actually want a bicycle?

After dinner, Kamuro, Kushida, Ichinose tidied up and left, leaving the dishes unwashed as punishment for being a philandering man.

To be honest, Shuichi Kanda didn't expect the problem to be solved so easily.

Hmm, not quite, it should be a temporary solution?

However, nothing that he didn't want to see Matoba. If Kushida or Ichinose really intended to get rid of him completely, Shuichi Kanda didn't know what to do. He hadn't considered that kind of thing for the time being.

So it's really great that things have stabilized for now. Let's just let things develop naturally and wait for things to mature.

Moreover, Kamuro always intentionally or unintentionally reveals things about the Kanda Family, but she won't say anything when pressed, which gives Shuichi Kanda a real headache.

Am I not an adopted son? But Kamuro's attitude is that he treats me as the next head of the family.

Furthermore, Sakayanagi has stated that, according to legend, the current heir of the Kanda Family possesses knowledge of the past. Doesn't this align with the past version of Time TV?

Shuichi Kanda found it strange, but he had no clues to investigate.

Kamuro is very obedient, but when it comes to this kind of thing, he completely shuts up, and no amount of coercion can change that.

Shuichi Kanda was washing the dishes while lost in thought, the doorbell rang again.

Knock knock knock!

"Hold on."

After rinsing the soap off his hands with tap water, Shuichi Kanda opened the door.

I thought it would be one of the three who had returned, but it turned out to be Kei Karuizawa.

"Oh, it's you! What brings you here so late at night?"

"Yes, there are some things."

Karuizawa breathed on his hands, sending up puffs of white smoke.

"Come on in. Aren't you girls cold? You're dressed so lightly. I promised to protect you, but you're asking for trouble, so don't blame me."

The three people I saw today were alright; at least they were wearing tights to keep warm. Karuizawa, you're really brave, running around outside with bare legs.

"Huh? Kanda, are you worried about me?"

Karuizawa had just entered the room, immediately showed a look of surprise.

Isn't it obvious? Shuichi Kanda felt that Karuizawa seemed a bit strange.

"What would you like to drink? Coffee? Tea? Or cocoa?"

"Cocoa!"

"Okay, please have a seat."

After Karuizawa entered the house, Shuichi Kanda first filled the kettle with water, then turned on the power, and then continued to turn on the tap to wash the pots, pans, and other utensils.

Then the water boiled, and Shuichi Kanda to Karuizawa.

"It smells so good!"

Karuizawa sniffed it and praised it, which also drew a sigh from Shuichi Kanda.

"It's just regular cocoa."

Shuichi Kanda placed his cocoa on the table to cool, then picked up Jump magazine and started reading.

As for what Karuizawa wanted to do, Shuichi Kanda didn't ask. She would tell him when she wanted to, so there was no need to ask further.

Shuichi Kanda couldn't possibly look after everyone, so he had to cultivate their habit of coming to him for help whenever they needed it, so that Shuichi Kanda could guarantee their safety.

Miyake does this very well; whenever he encounters a problem he can't solve, he directly asks Shuichi Kanda opinion.

Secondly, Kushida's resolve is also very high... no, that guy shouldn't say he's very resolved, but rather that he feels it's faster to have Shuichi Kanda solve any problems.

However, since the bet incident with Horikita, she hasn't caused any major trouble, so things have been relatively quiet lately.

As for Kamuro, he has at least 20 million points, so Shuichi Kanda is more worried about Ichinose.

Class A...

Thinking of this, Shuichi Kanda sighed silently.
