章節 177: Family First

After having dinner, Xiu Jin and Aoi bid good night and left the villa by the sea, giving Xiu Lan a ride back to the estate.

Midori had an awkward feeling when Manta arrived, as he addressed his real mother appropriately, then running to clutch onto her clothes. This awkwardness dissipated when Midori held Dmitri after Xiu Lan brought him to the villa.

After her parents left, Midori felt the need for her brother's little family to catch up on their own, so she also expressed her desire to leave.

Before she went into their car, her brother spoke with her.

"M'dori-chan..." he placed his palm on her head.

She pouted, hating the nickname. "Nii-san, I'm a mom now." She gently gestured by lifting her son who was fast asleep in her arms subtly.

Masaichi removed his hand as he chuckled. "Hai, hai. Remember to always put your family first. You need not learn through experience like we did."

Midori smiled then nodded. "Hmmn."

"Chūi shite kudasai.*"
