After finishing the handover work, Mayumi Saegusa and Yunyi returned home around 8 p. m.
As soon as the two entered the house, they saw the twins sitting on the sofa, looking at them with resentful eyes.
" Kasumi? Izumi? What's wrong with you two?" Mayumi Saegusa asked, puzzled.
"Big sister, have you forgotten your dear little sister since you got a boyfriend?" Kasumi Saegusa said resentfully, her gaze towards Yunyi sending chills down Yunyi's spine.
"Seriously, Kasumi, what are you talking about!?" Mayumi Saegusa was even more confused. What's wrong with these two kids today? Did they get upset?
"Cough cough~"
Just then, Yunyi, who was standing behind her, coughed lightly twice.
" Mayumi, they must be hungry. We didn't keep anything ready to eat at home, and we got back quite late..."
"Ah!"
Mayumi Saegusa exclaimed in surprise, then put on an embarrassed expression and looked at the twins, saying, " Kasumi and Izumi, I'm sorry. My older sister had a lot of work today, so she was a little late. Please wait a moment, I'll go make dinner for you right away!"
Seeing that Mayumi Saegusa didn't even bother to change her clothes, taking off her jacket and heading into the kitchen to start working, Yunyi naturally couldn't just sit and wait. Together, they quickly prepared dinner.
After filling their stomachs, Kasumi Saegusa and Izumi Saegusa's resentment subsided considerably, but the incident also served as a reminder to Mayumi Saegusa.
" Yunyi-kun, the election is coming up soon, and I'll be busy with the final work for the Student Council. So, could you come back earlier to cook dinner for Kasumi and Izumi?"
Seeing Mayumi Saegusa clasp her hands together in a pleading manner, Yunyi naturally wouldn't refuse. However, the two little ones opposite her trembled slightly when they heard Mayumi Saegusa's words.
Although their movements were subtle, Yunyi still managed to catch them.
"What, you two little ones don't like what I made? How about I give you some pocket money so you can take care of yourselves for dinner before going home?" Yunyi suggested.
His suggestion piqued the interest of both Kasumi Saegusa and Izumi Saegusa. However, Mayumi Saegusa decisively rejected it on their behalf the next moment.
" Yunyi-kun, Kasumi and Izumi are, after all, children of the Saegusa Family. It's alright with Mr. Nagura accompanying them on their way to and from school, but if we let them run around freely, it might be a bit dangerous."
Hearing Mayumi Saegusa say that, the twins lowered their heads in disappointment. Indeed, Saegusa's identity could bring them certain advantages in many ways. But at times, it was also a sword hanging over their heads.
" Kasumi and Izumi, you don't need to be so afraid of Yunyi-kun. He won't hurt you, understand?" Mayumi Saegusa reminded her two younger sisters again.
"Okay, sister," the twins replied, but their voices sounded somewhat reluctant.
Mayumi Saegusa wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but Yunyi secretly stopped her. He knew very well why these two little ones were dissatisfied and afraid of him, and those things couldn't be dismissed with just a few words from Mayumi Saegusa.
"It seems I need to find an opportunity to have a good talk with these two kids," Yunyi thought to himself.
After dinner, Mayumi Saegusa and Yunyi returned to their room. Seeing Mayumi Saegusa in her pajamas, still busy with her terminal, Yunyi couldn't help but ask, "Is there really that much Student Council work to hand over?"
"That's not it, Yunyi-kun. It's just because of Azusa's personality. I'm worried that she won't be able to take on the responsibilities of Student Council right away, so I want to help her prepare more," said Mayumi Saegusa.
"I see. But I don't think you need to go into such detail. Anyway, with Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba there, the Student Council won't cause any trouble," Yunyi said nonchalantly.
" The Student Council won't cause any trouble, but what about the Public Morals Committee? Yunyi-kun, Mari is really annoyed by your presence. She tricked me into repeating a year again today." Mayumi Saegusa snorted, somewhat exasperated with her boyfriend.
Yunyi rolled his eyes, leaned back and lay down on the bed, ignoring Mayumi Saegusa, which made the little vixen so angry that she slapped him a few times.
Logically, appointing Kanon Chiyoda as the chairperson of the Public Morals Committee would be the wisest choice. However, given Kanon Chiyoda's personality, she might actually clash with Yunyi. From this perspective, she doesn't seem to be a suitable candidate.
In recent days, Mari Watanabe has been extremely worried about her successor. She has even started to consider the possibility of having Yunyi directly succeed her as the chairperson of the Public Morals Committee.
Of course, not only did Mayumi Saegusa disagree with her proposal, but Katsuto Jumonji also voiced his opposition. Ever since Katsuto Jumonji raised his objections to Mayumi Saegusa that day, he seemed to be paying more attention to Yunyi. However, all of this was done in secret, so not many people noticed.
As for the official document that Katsuto Jumonji mentioned at the time, Mayumi Saegusa had also brought it up with Koichi Saegusa. However, Koichi Saegusa told him that he had not received any official document from any of the Ten Master Clans to the Saegusa Family, which reassured Mayumi Saegusa quite a bit.
However, as is often the case with bad news, it always comes with good news, Mayumi Saegusa was no exception this time. Koichi Saegusa had no objection to her moving out of the Saegusa Family to live with Yunyi, but her mother, the current matriarch of the Saegusa Family, was somewhat angry. Especially since Koichi Saegusa had also made her other two daughters move out, this deepened the noblewoman's dissatisfaction with Yunyi.
Fortunately, Koichi Saegusa intervened and explained the situation, dissuading the Saegusa sisters from immediately returning home. However, she also relayed a message to Mayumi Saegusa through Koichi Saegusa, asking her to bring Yunyi back to the Saegusa Family as soon as possible.
By the time Mayumi Saegusa finished her work and lay down, Yunyi seemed to have fallen asleep. Just as Mayumi Saegusa poked Yunyi's bare upper body reproachfully, Yunyi suddenly opened his eyes.
"Ara- Yunyi-kun, pretending to be asleep is against the rules, you know," Mayumi Saegusa Nanagusa complained irritably.
"Don't pretend to be asleep, I was just resting with my eyes closed."
As Yunyi responded from the darkness, the atmosphere in the room gradually warmed up.
