"Hana, how about we have steak today!"
"Wow~ Are we going out to eat, Onii-chan?"
Uchiha Ryo directly took out a full two kilograms of fresh beef from the bag behind him. Today was to celebrate Shirosaki Hana moving over temporarily, so he prepared a lot of food in advance. After all, raising flowers and raising cats are two different things.
He can let the cat roam free, but not the flower. This flower must be taken care of meticulously.
If it really doesn't work... just throw Hana upstairs. Anyway, Yukino is already taking care of Rumi, putting Hana there can also be a companion for Rumi.
Wait! Maybe the age range for the saying "Children grow up watching their parents' backs" needs to be raised. At least he recently thought he saw a mini version of Yukino when he saw Rumi.
No! Can't let Hana follow Yukino. What if she leads the cute Hana astray too!
Thinking of this, Uchiha Ryo quickly ran into the kitchen with the beef and began to prepare the steak for later.
Not long after, the meticulously cooked steak was served on the table. Shirosaki Hana swallowed her saliva, looking at the slightly charred and crispy skin of the steak and the not fully cooked inside, it smelled incredibly delicious.
Sure enough, choosing to live at brother's house was correct. Although Sister Miyako from Hinata's family also cooks very well, she always demands some inexplicable rewards, such as making me try on various costumes.
It's better with brother. He prepared steak on the first day, and it is said he will take me out to eat tonight~
Shirosaki Hana sat on the sofa happily eating the steak. The moment she bit down, the juices of the steak overflowed! It had been since last time that Hana ate such delicious meat!
"Don't just eat meat, vegetables with roasted meat are also very delicious."
Uchiha Ryo wrapped the steak with tender lettuce and placed it on Shirosaki Hana's plate. By the way, he patted Hana's back to signal her to eat slower.
"There are also drinks and cheese for dessert after the meal. I told you to eat slower, don't take such big bites just to eat dessert! Steak needs to be chewed slowly."
Looking at the warm scene on the sofa, Enyun-chan in the corner couldn't help but sigh. So the scummy master can take care of people... Wait a minute! Then why not take care of me seriously? Now I even have to open cat cans myself.
[Hana, I helped you unscrew the bottle cap of the drink, want to pour it into the cup? Is the steak too big? I'll cut it into small pieces.]
[Enyun-chan, if you are hungry, open the can yourself, or go upstairs to find Yukino to solve it. What? Want me to do it, at your age! You should be self-reliant, okay?!]
The cat felt the disparity of the world...
Just then, the apartment door was pulled open, and Yukino from upstairs walked in with Rumi.
Seeing Uchiha Ryo feeding Hana steak in the living room, she said as if relieved. "I'm relieved that you are taking care of Hana normally."
"Otherwise? I'm very good at taking care of people, okay! Do you want to eat? There is still a lot of beef."
Tsurumi Rumi shook her head. "Yukino-oneechan and I ate before coming, and recently I'm on a diet, don't want to eat too much."
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't answer but looked like Rumi. Although the aroma of the steak was strong, she didn't intend to dine.
"Yukino, are you also on a diet?"
Uchiha Ryo looked at Yukino in surprise, as well as Yukino's flat... abdomen.
"Because of Rumi moving in, I prepared better meals recently, so inevitably... wait, where are you looking?"
Yukino sighed. It's not like she didn't want the extra meat to go to... where it should go.
Simply put, it's [First time being a mother?] Yukino, taking care of a child for the first time, made a mistake that everyone would make, which is being overly caring about diet.
Although Yukino's discipline is still strict, based on the common sense that children are growing, the food expenses of Yukino's family have more than tripled in the past month.
And Tsurumi Rumi is not Yukino who occasionally practices Aikido. Under the feeding of various high-end ingredients, although her figure doesn't show it yet, her face has obvious fleshiness.
So Rumi proposed to lose weight! And Yukino found that she was also a few kilograms heavier than last month, so the two hit it off instantly and started to re-plan healthy recipes.
Uchiha Ryo reached out and pinched Rumi's cheek. "I see, but being a little chubby is also good. How can being bony compare to being slightly chubby?"
Rumi shook her head and slapped Uchiha Ryo's hand away. "I don't want that. So coming here is also to remind you, Hana loves to eat originally. Even with a physique that doesn't gain weight easily, she might be overfed by you."
"So... take Hana with you in the afternoon, let's go jogging."
Shirosaki Hana, who was eating steak, raised her head and looked at her good friend. She didn't understand why her good friend losing weight would force her to join!
However, Uchiha Ryo smiled. Rumi's little thought is easy to understand.
First, the two are friends and will live upstairs and downstairs in the future, so meeting often is certain. And while one is controlling diet to lose weight, if the other side eats fish, meat, and cream cakes every day...
If you are the one losing weight, you will definitely try every means to make the other party join in, otherwise don't eat such good things in front of me!
Rumi looked at Shirosaki Hana seriously. Although very sorry, who let it be my weight loss period now, you just cooperate well.
Uchiha Ryo turned his head. "Speaking of which, Rumi has been living here for over a month, are you used to it?"
Tsurumi Rumi smiled. "Mom is completely relieved. After all, with Shinomiya-oneechan's help, I successfully transferred to the Shuchiin Middle School Division as an external student."
And she joined strongly with the number one score upon admission. This also led to Rumi not being ostracized because of her external student status after transferring. In the environment of Shuchiin, gentlemen who admire the strong are always more than villains who ostracize the strong.
"Then your mother is also relieved, right?"
"Mom is very relieved to leave me to Yukino-oneechan, and sends child support every month. But I still go home every weekend."
Uchiha Ryo nodded, then looked at Shirosaki Hana beside him.
"Accompany Onii-chan for a jog in the afternoon."
"Ugh... the calories of steak are not very high~" Shirosaki Hana didn't want to exercise together just after moving to brother's house.
Tsurumi Rumi pointed at the steak expressionlessly. "The high-end steak Ryo-oniichan bought has higher fat content, and you are drinking beverages. Especially the calories of dessert after the meal are actually higher than the steak."
"And Hana, you are clearly shorter than me, but weigh more than me..."
Shirosaki Hana was speechless... Even as a child who likes to eat, Hana is also a girl who loves beauty.
Tsurumi Rumi smiled. "How about it? Want to exercise with me~"
Hana raised her head. "Exercise then exercise, who's afraid of who! Wait for me to finish the dessert first!"
