As Miyuki mentioned taking a day off to watch movies at home, Lena finally came back to her senses, realizing that she had come to visit Miyuki, but somehow it turned into Miyuki comforting her instead!
“Speaking of which, didn’t you say last night that your house was being renovated? Is it finished now?” Lena glanced around the room.
Actually, from the moment she entered the house, she was a bit puzzled. It wasn’t her first time visiting Miyuki’s home, so she didn’t notice any differences from before, let alone any traces of renovation.
If she had to point out something…
“Also, I noticed there’s an extra pair of slippers on the shoe cabinet at the entrance. Do you have a guest over?”
A few months ago, before becoming the chief designer, Lena had lived with Miyuki, so she was very familiar with Miyuki’s habits.
Miyuki was very attentive and detail-oriented when it came to home management. She would never leave things lying around randomly. Now, with an extra pair of shoes on the shoe cabinet that Miyuki hadn’t put away, it could only mean that there was an additional person in the house.
Moreover, the reason Lena couldn’t help but ask now was that the pair of slippers were obviously men’s.
“Oh, you mean that?”
“Remember I told you I have a younger brother? He recently came over from our hometown and is living with me.”
“Younger brother?”
Lena was a bit surprised, but after thinking carefully, this younger brother wasn’t out of the blue. Miyuki had indeed mentioned him to her several times before.
At that time, based on Miyuki’s tone and demeanor when describing her younger brother, Lena had secretly complained that Miyuki was definitely a doting sister who spoiled her brother.
“So now he is…”
“He should be at work, right?”
“Work?” Lena was a bit surprised. With Miyuki’s current wealth, did her brother still need to work?
In response, Miyuki smiled and explained, “He’s similar to you, I guess. He’s also new to this city and is still adapting. So I thought I’d let him go out and work hard to get used to it first. And how should I put it? Well, my brother is quite tsundere. If I directly arranged for him to work at the Alliance, he probably wouldn’t accept it.”
“Since that’s the case, I won’t bother with such unnecessary steps. Anyway, with his abilities, I guess it won’t take long for him to reach a similar position~”
Although Miyuki’s tone was very ordinary, Lena could still easily hear the pride and confidence she had in her younger brother from those words.
If it were someone else, Lena might not believe it. Starting from scratch wasn’t that simple. But since it was Miyuki, if the older sister was so outstanding, the younger brother should be the same.
Lena knew about Miyuki’s legendary story. This older sister had truly come to the city alone, started from scratch, and relied on herself to establish the Forest-Alliance.co. Later, with the success of “Fallen Chronicles II”, she had firmly established her footing and became a big company in the industry. It was a legendary journey.
As it was getting late, Lena chatted with Miyuki for a while longer before getting up to leave.
“Lena, be careful on the way back. If there’s a chance, I’ll let you meet my brother and get to know each other. As the chief designer of our Alliance, who knows, he might be your fan too!”
“I see, I will be waiting then”
Lena nodded. When changing her shoes in the entrance hall, she glanced at the slippers on Miyuki’s shoe cabinet again and suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart.
What is this feeling again?
Now that Miyuki’s younger brother has come back to visit her, Miyuki has family to accompany her and is no longer alone.
But I… I am still all by myself…
When Miyuki was also alone before, Lena didn’t feel it. But now, with the sudden addition of a younger brother in Miyuki’s home, in comparison, it seemed to make her feel even more lonely.
As if sensing Lena’s loneliness, the blonde woman at the door still stopped her before she left.
“Also, Lena, don’t just let me introduce my brother. I’m still waiting for you to introduce your man to me too when you find him~!”
Faced with Miyuki’s teasing smile, Lena knew that the other party was trying to comfort her. However, the loneliness and emptiness in her heart indeed made Lena’s determination in this regard even stronger.
She nodded and puffed out her chest with great vigor, saying, “Hmph, don’t worry, Yuki. This young lady only needs to make a slight effort. What man can’t I, Lena, bring back? Just wait, in no time, I’ll find him and bring him to you in no time!”
Faced with her pink-haired best friend’s bold declaration, Miyuki naturally applauded with both hands, looking very expectant, and said, “That’s right, that’s right. Lena, not only in our Alliance but among all the players of ‘Fallen Chronicles II,’ you are also a goddess-level figure. Dealing with a man, isn’t it a piece of cake for you?”
“Not to mention, you have me too!”
“Lena, I will also secretly support you~!”
The emotional exchange between the two mature women finally came to a satisfactory conclusion. Lena hummed a tune and drove away from Miyuki’s home.
The pink-haired woman drove while pondering how she could find that young man again. Although Miyuki said to believe in fate, Lena still preferred to control her own destiny.
But what Lena didn’t know was that, in fact, just less than a hundred meters away from her car, the fate she wanted had just passed her by.
At the entrance of the community, the young man who had gotten off work walked in with his head down.
Renji arrived at the door with a very complicated and heavy heart.
He had gotten off work early today for one thing.
Before opening the door, Renji took out a signed photo from the lining of his clothes, looked at it again, and then, as if making up his mind, opened the door.
“You’re back?”
“Why so early today? Wait a little longer. A friend came over to visit not long ago, so it took some time. Dinner will be ready in about fifteen minutes. Why don’t you take a shower first?”
Renji looked at Miyuki, who poked her head out from the kitchen. Although she was wearing an apron, her alluring figure with curves in all the right places under her home clothes still made people’s mouths water, wishing they could eat her as dinner.
Moreover, after last night, Renji was a bit sensitive to the words “take a shower” and felt that a certain part of him had already started to ache.
Taking a deep breath, Renji knew that he couldn’t continue to make this mistake, especially last night, which was too crazy and too unfair to Miyuki!
Although it was Yuki who took the initiative to request it.
But I… Renji shook his head vigorously, feeling immensely remorseful for his beastly behavior last night.
My actions were completely disrespectful to Yuki!
With even greater determination, Renji very seriously told Miyuki to stop cooking first, as they needed to talk.
And when the two of them sat down at the table in the living room, the first thing Renji said was…
“Sister Yuki, I…”
“Have someone I like now.”
