บท 1152: Taniguchi Household

Yukari saying that without missing a beat made the guy’s face turn sour instantly. He then forced a smile, trying his best not to look affected.

“I-is that so? Congratulations.”

As he forced out those words, he then looked at me. Most likely, trying to compare himself to me. Seconds later, he looked down and shook his head bitterly.

His expression said it all. He’s aware that he wouldn’t be able to contest me. Especially when Yukari stuck to my side like this.

I also didn’t need to say anything. Yukari already got this guy handled. The development of her character has already reached this point. She’s not going to be so timid and easy to push around anymore.

“Thank you, Mikami. Uhm, he’s Ruki. He’s the one I told you before.” Yukari then introduced me. But instead of looking at the guy, her eyes remained fixated on me. She had a very refreshing smile as though she resolved one of her regrets.
