Chapter 671 A mission for you


Chapter 671 A mission for you

"Let's eat; you seem to have enough energy now."

But if he has been working hard this entire time, she doubts donuts will be enough for him. Oh that's right. Sumire broke free from his hold and walked over to the kitchen. She took out some sandwiches from the fridge.

It was a sandwich with vegetables and grilled meat stuffed inside.

"I'm sorry this isn't much. My nausea was bad, so I couldn't cook-" Sumire paused, seeing his expression, and averted her gaze. "What is it?"

"I just thought of the perks of having a talented wife."

Sumire stepped on his foot, and Yuhi yelped in pain. "Hey now, I am complimenting you."

"It's only a sandwich, your exaggerating."

Besides, she is quite sure his pretty childhood friend has cooked for him. Sumire recalled the article of them participating in a recent cooking show together.

Yuhi sighed, stood up, and brought her back to the couch. "Alright, you're having your mood swings again." He trailed off and caressed her hair. "I am tired after working so hard. Can't you be nice even if you have to pretend?"

Oh, her heart seemed to melt hearing those words. But she recalled what she saw on the net.

"Hey Yuhi-san, have you seen your friend recently?"

"Cas? We were on a program together a few days ago."

Oh, he isn't hiding it. She felt him flick her forehead. "Don't be jealous. Your cooking is a hundred times better. I even asked the show director if you could be the female guest next time, and he agreed. Hino will send you the details."

Sumire blinked, hearing those words. He is pushing away her jealousy before she even gets a chance to properly get jealous. Moreover, he even got her work. She wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly.

"I love you, my dear."

"Mmm." Yuhi nodded. "That's better. Rather, are you going to eat?"

She opened the box, and her eyes brightened. "There are so many to choose from; which one should I have first?"

"Whichever you like, and if you feel too sick, you can save the rest."

As Sumire bit into the doughnut, she beamed happily. Now that she thought about it, her cravings have increased recently. Is it because she is bored at home but has more time to surf the net. Yuhi-san would buy her the food no matter what new craving she got.

She put the doughnut down and hugged him tightly.

"My dear, I must have saved thousands of people in my past life. I am so lucky to be your wife."

Yuhi gently caressed her hair and patted her back. "Your schedule will be very busy when the house arrest is lifted. But do you want to come with me and see the venue?"

".."

She may even try on the dress at the wedding venue. Sumire felt her face redden at the mere thought. Oh, to think this day is actually happening.

"I think I'm dreaming."

"Silly girl, you-" Before Yuhi could finish his sentence, they heard the sound of her phone.

Sumire, however, froze hearing the ring tone. She immediately answered it angrily. "Aki! Where on earth have you been? How could you leave everything to Atushi? He isn't even part of our group."

She heard familiar laughter on the other end and sighed. "This isn't funny; you know those people are taking serious action."

"As expected of you, riri, you're so well informed."

"And so? I would curse you to death if you didn't find anything worthwhile on your adventure."

"Now, now. I have something useful. Are you alone?"

Sumire glanced over at Yuhi; she pulled the phone away for a moment. "I'm just going to step out, okay?"

"Sure."

She headed towards the balcony and briefly looked back to see him eating the other sandwiches. Well, it's not like she can't just tell him later. Sumire slid open the double doors and stepped out onto the balcony.

"What is it?"

"Recently, there were rumors about a large-scale arms deal. You heard about that, right?"

"Yes, some guns were smuggled in from overseas. I am guessing you went over to stop the trade?"

"It was a coincidence that I did."

Her eyes twitched, annoyed hearing those words. This person has an unusual ability to make her angry.

"But when I went there, the guns were missing."

"Huh?" Sumire exclaimed. "Wait, how many?"

"Five thousand."

At those words, Sumire sighed. Five thousand guns went missing, and they are not normal guns either. Guns from overseas are most likely more advanced. This is no good; even half that amount is enough to start a large-scale war.

"Find them, no wait. We need to narrow down the search if that many went missing."

"I already did, Tokyo."

Sumire already had a bad feeling when she saw his caller ID but of course.

"Then I'll deal with it."

"As expected of the real leader." Aki trailed off. "And so are we getting Yuhi's help on this?"

"No," Sumire muttered. "Now isn't a good time for Yuhi to be involved in a large-scale operation. What he is doing is already risky enough; thankfully, the media are focusing their attention on cooking up a false love triangle."

"But is it false? What if he is cheating on you-"

"If you say another word, I'll cut off your tongue or fill your head with bullets." Sumire threatened.

"So scary, but you should bring someone with you just in case."

"Alright, is that all?"

"I'll mail you some more details, Riri; remember to value lives."

"I know."

She ended the call with those words and looked up at the sky. A clear sky and yet a huge cloud. It will probably rain; however, tonight is probably the best time to strike and do this job. Yuhi-san will be busy until tomorrow morning.

'I have to finish up quickly and then head back before he returns.'

Her thoughts broke off hearing a knock on the door, and she opened it. "Are you finished?"

"Yup." Sumire clung to his arm. "My dear, do you remember what you said? You said after we eat, you will attack me with kisses."

"Hah, but what should we do? I'm tired."

"Then I'll be the one doing the attacking." Sumire beamed happily. "What type of position do you like?"

She suddenly felt Yuhi lift her up. "You're provoking me too much. I guess you know what will happen?"

"That's what I want."

If only she could spend more peaceful days like this with Yuhi-san with nothing happening. However, she recalled Aki's distressed tone. Even though he tried to sound like his usual self, she sensed how tired and exhausted he was.

It's not like him; he has always remained calm ever since they first met.
