I don't know if the Jade Silkworm has been with me for too long, but it seems its emotional intelligence has improved and it's now perched on such a great spot.
This twin-tail sailor suit girl is bouncing in front of me, causing waves that make Xu Fan feel a bit dazzled.
This kind of intense staring, if it were the past, with Asao Mai's fiery temper, she would definitely have to kick Xu Fan's butt hard twice.
But now, the little bug clinging to her chest scared her into tears, where would she have the time to care about these things?
"Hurry! Quick!"
Now, with a pair of watery big eyes staring at Xu Fan, she started pleading.
"Alright then..."
Seeing her begging him to take action, Xu Fan couldn't refuse and reluctantly agreed, walking towards Asao Mai.
Bang!
However, before Xu Fan could lift a finger, Asao Mai's eyes went dark and she fainted right in front of him.
"This..."
Evidently, the young lady fainted from fright before he could rescue her.
Looking at his hand frozen in mid-air, Xu Fan couldn't help but pout.
Why couldn't you hold on a bit longer?
I was just about to help you get it out.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Fan whistled and summoned the Jade Silkworm.
Putting away the Jade Silkworm, Xu Fan looked at the sailor suit girl lying on the ground and couldn't help smacking his lips.
"That's really a headache..."
If I just leave this young lady here, who knows what trouble she might cause for me when she wakes up.
Having just arrived in Ancient Nara, Xu Fan doesn't want any mishaps.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Fan bent down and directly lifted the young lady.
"Tsk tsk, the Island Country people indeed develop quite well."
While exploring the young lady's body, Xu Fan quickly found her personal belongings.
Phone, wallet, keys. Xu Fan retrieved the citizen ID from the wallet and finally learned her name.
Asao Mai.
From the citizen ID, he could see her address in Ancient Nara. After pondering for a while, Xu Fan decided to take the young lady home first.
After making the decision, Xu Fan carried the unconscious Asao Mai out of the alley.
He hailed a taxi and headed to Asao Mai's residence.
A roughly ten-minute drive brought Xu Fan to his destination.
Retrieving the key from Asao Mai, Xu Fan opened the door and entered the house with her.
The place Asao Mai lived in wasn't big, a typical Japanese one-room apartment.
This size of a room is just enough for one person to live.
But as soon as Xu Fan entered, the innocent eyes staring at him made him feel a bit dazed.
"Ha... hello?"
Four little girls were curiously looking at him. Xu Fan locked eyes with them, took a moment, and then greeted them.
Perhaps these four little girls are Asao Mai's sisters. Xu Fan felt a bit awkward seeing their curious eyes.
Not knowing how to explain his relationship with Asao Mai?
Your sister just robbed me, and then we became good friends?
"Are you Onee-chan's boyfriend?"
Before Xu Fan could speak, the little girls, perceptive for their age, proactively guessed Xu Fan's identity.
Looking at Asao Mai sleeping in his arms, Xu Fan instantly understood why they said so.
"You found out..."
Too lazy to explain further, Xu Fan went along and admitted it.
"Onee-chan is asleep, so don't be noisy, okay?"
Greeting the little girls, Xu Fan laid Asao Mai on the tatami.
Now that she's been taken home, Xu Fan believed she wouldn't cause any trouble for him, so he exhaled and prepared to leave.
However, turning around, he discovered that those four big, watery eyes were still watching him.
Gurgle... gurgle...
Although shy with a stranger like Xu Fan, their growling stomachs directly told Xu Fan why they were staring at him.
"..."
These four little girls were probably waiting at home for Asao Mai to return and cook for them, waiting all this time.
Asao Mai didn't know when she'd wake up, and seeing how the four tender little ones were hungry, Xu Fan really couldn't just leave them.
Shaking his head, amused and exasperated, Xu Fan said, "You guys wait here obediently, big brother will make something tasty for you."
Patting their little heads, Xu Fan turned to the fridge.
The fridge didn't have much, but just enough to put something together to fill these four kids.
Xu Fan took out the ingredients, brought them to the kitchen, and started cooking.
Before long, four steaming dishes were ready.
"The food's ready!"
Calling out, Xu Fan carried the four dishes to the table.
Clearly, the four little girls were really hungry, and without Xu Fan prompting, they obediently came to the table.
They picked up their chopsticks, ready to eat.
But on second thought, they paused, put down their chopsticks, and ran over to Xu Fan.
"Th... thank you to Onee-chan's boyfriend for making us tasty food."
The little girls, with their tender voices, thanked Xu Fan in unison.
Their cute thanks made Xu Fan feel that all the effort wasn't in vain. Smiling, he patted their little heads, "Alright, we're all family, no need to be formal."
"Let's eat!"
With Xu Fan's permission, the little ones climbed onto their chairs, sat steadily, and started eating.
Not wanting Xu Fan to just watch, the little girls took turns using their chopsticks to feed him as well.
Sitting at the table, Xu Fan observed the room while looking after the four little ones.
Judging by the room's layout and size, Xu Fan guessed that the household was likely just Asao Mai and these four little girls.
Asao Mai wasn't that old, and taking care of four little ones alone must have been quite a financial burden.
No wonder she used the spring knife to rob me.
"Onee-chan, you're awake!"
Lost in thought, suddenly, the four little girls cheered.
Xu Fan looked back and saw that Asao Mai, who had been lying on the tatami, had woken up.
Clearly, she was puzzled why her robbery victim was at her house.
And how she got home.
"Onee-chan, your boyfriend's cooking is super tasty!"
"Onee-chan's boyfriend is awesome."
Asao Mai was puzzled, but the four little girls gathered around her.
Their chirping chatter left her bewildered.
When... did I suddenly have a boyfriend?
