Tokyo landlord: why is the panties of the lady next door in my house?!

"Haruka, do your parents usually come here to see you?" Mariko Akiyama suddenly asked.

The same gentle eyes felt very comfortable.

"No, my parents are out of town, they won't come." Haruka Yuzan placed her finger on the password lock and smiled.

"Click," a sound came.

The gate opened, and the short winding path was covered with pebbles; Rika Onodera's eyes were filled with curiosity. Her mouth opened wide in awe of the beautiful scene.

The villa came with two small yards; the front yard was planted with various flowers and plants, and as the breeze passed by, the scent of flowers could even be detected in the air.

These were all tended by Mrs. Onodera.

On the other side of the yard was a small house, which Haruka Yuzan usually used as a storage shed to place large tools and such.

The appropriate temperature, the beautiful environment, and the tasteful decoration all made the residents feel comfortable.

Everything was new. The big beautiful house made the usually lively Rika Onodera a bit timid, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Mariko Akiyama's little hand.

Sensing the little one's nervousness, Mariko Akiyama felt somewhat helpless. It wasn't just her; even she couldn't help but marvel.

Haruka Yuzan, who had been standing by, also noticed this. He bent down and gently pinched Rika Onodera's cheek,

"Just think of this as your own home, okay? Little Rika?"

The boy's tone was very gentle, his voice magical, which relaxed the little girl.

"Mm... okay." Looking at the handsome brother in front of her, Rika Onodera obediently nodded her head.

Seeing this, Mariko Akiyama's eyes were even more unsettled. It seemed, Mr. Haruka liked Rika Onodera quite a lot. Was he not put off by the fact that Reiko had a daughter?

Or was his intention really pure? Was she overthinking it?

"Alright, let's go inside."

Haruka Yuzan stood up, took the little girl's hand, and walked inside.

The villa's mahogany door was half-open and not completely closed.

The group directly pushed the door and walked in.

The spacious and bright interior of the room surprised Mariko Akiyama even more. It was her first time entering such a big house.

The first floor was empty, with gentle sunlight shining through, as if it had just been cleaned. The furniture inside seemed tidy and clean.

The little girl who stayed by the lady's side felt even more so, with curiosity and restraint written on her face. Just when she had relaxed a bit, she became tense again.

The sofa under her was soft and comfortable; Rika Onodera blankly stared at the distant 100-inch LCD TV, which mirrored their silhouettes on its black glossy screen.

Her little short legs didn't know where to put themselves, and her hands never left her grandmother.

"Sister Reiko will be back in a while; you two sit here for a bit."

Your next chapter is on мѵʟ

Haruka Yuzan changed his shoes, came to the fridge, and said with a smile,

"Little Rika, do you want a drink? I have yogurt... "

"I... I..."

Hearing the boy's question, Rika Onodera didn't know what to say, and her big anxious eyes turned red.

The naturally cute little girl found it difficult to adapt to a new environment.

"She'll be fine with water." Mariko Akiyama promptly spoke up when the girl couldn't find her words, "Don't bother too much."

Although she could have leaned back on the sofa, the lady sat very upright, her slender waist bearing the weight of another long day; it was truly pitiable.

Haruka Yuzan shook his head with a bit of helplessness, took a bottle of yogurt from the fridge, walked over, crouched down, and smiled at the little girl who seemed a bit nervous,

Inserted the straw and brought it to the girl's mouth,

"Don't be nervous, Little Rika, have some yogurt. We'll eat when your mom gets back."

Glancing at the straw brought up to her mouth, Rika Onodera looked at Mariko Akiyama, who nodded, then took the yogurt into her hands.

Biting the straw, she took a deep sip, her eyes lighting up, and her expression really resembled Mrs. Onodera's.

"Is it good?" Haruka Yuzan asked with a smile.

"Mm! It's good! Thank you, Haruka brother!!" Rika Onodera sweetly replied, her large eyes curving into pretty crescents.

Her little short legs also dangled lightly in the air, appearing very adorable. Returning to her lively self just needed a bottle of yogurt or a phone!!

Seeing the little girl back to normal, Haruka Yuzan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It really wasn't easy to soothe a child.

She had been so lively when on video, and now having just brought her home, he had already had to calm her twice.

Indeed, was he not suited for taking care of children?

Though he wasn't good at it, some people were,

Like someone with a thick skin, incredibly talkative.

"Are you back yet?!!"

The few of them had only been in the living room for two minutes,

When a crisp and youthful voice came from the kitchen. They looked up to see a little person, not much taller than Reiko Onodera, smiling happily as she walked out of the room.

Blonde hair tied in two ponytails hung down to the waist, with a white headband on top, her similarly soft and cute face was visible, but the smile on it seemed a bit odd.
