Chapter 290
"It's about a ten-minute walk from Shibuya subway station."
Yue Dao Lin said in surprise:
"So it's in Shibuya..."
"Wait, could it be that the place you live now is also here in Shibuya?"
Natsume Chikage nodded:
"Yes."
As he spoke.
He pointed in a direction again.
"It's right over there."
"But the distance is a bit far, and it's also a bit of a walk."
"I see." Yue Dao Lin blinked and silently noted that Natsume Chikage's home was in that direction in Shibuya.
Natsume Chikage asked:
"Senior Yue Dao, are you going to the subway station now?"
Yue Dao Lin smiled:
"Mm-hmm."
"The family driver is waiting for me nearby."
Natsume Chikage was silent for a moment after hearing this.
He couldn't help but lament that there really are so many wealthy young ladies in his school...
"Since it's on the way, I'll walk you over."
Yue Dao Lin smiled happily:
"Then I'll trouble you, Natsume-kun."
Soon.
The two arrived at the subway station.
Natsume Chikage discovered that there really was a luxury car waiting for Yue Dao Lin nearby.
"Natsume-kun, I'll be going first, see you tomorrow."
"Mm, see you tomorrow."
And the female driver, after noticing her young lady waving goodbye to the boy, took a deep look at Natsume Chikage before driving away.
Natsume Chikage didn't linger and quickly headed home.
However, before going home, he remembered to buy his sister some milk, vitamins, calcium tablets, and such, planning to let her supplement her nutrition every day so she could grow tall quickly.
He even bought a few extra cat treats, planning to feed the cat 'Nanio' on the way home to see if he could tame this special cat.
But regrettably.
'Nanio' didn't know where it had run off to.
Home.
"Auntie Miyuki... please come in." Natsume Ruri greeted her shyly.
"I'm sorry for the intrusion."
As she spoke, the beautiful woman, Kondo Miyuki, entered the room and placed the bag in her hand on the table.
"There are some desserts here, you can eat them in a while."
"... Thank you, Auntie Miyuki. Please sit down, I'll make you some tea."
"Mm."
Just after entering.
She noticed that the room where the Natsume siblings were living was truly too small.
It was basically the kind of three-mat small room that only impoverished salarymen or college students would live in.
Although the room had everything needed, it was exceptionally cramped.
However, it was quite clean.
Seeing this room, Kondo Miyuki couldn't help but sigh.
No matter what, the Natsume siblings were the children of her senior, and seeing them reduced to such a predicament, her feelings were very complex.
However, Kondo Miyuki didn't show any disdain; she sat directly on the tatami mat in a formal posture and asked gently:
"Sister Ruri, when will your brother be back?"
Guests rarely came to the house.
Natsume Ruri smiled and explained:
"I just contacted my brother, and he said he would be back soon."
Kondo Miyuki understood:
"Mm."
And it wasn't long after the two were chatting.
Natsume Chikage pushed the door open and entered.
"I'm home."
What came into view were the two people sitting in the middle of the three-mat small room: his sister and Kondo Miyuki.
Natsume Ruri seemed to have seen a savior and said happily:
"Brother."
"Welcome back!"
The beautiful woman—Kondo Miyuki smiled gently:
"Welcome back, Natsume-kun."
Natsume Chikage paused and asked in surprise:
"Auntie Miyuki, why did you suddenly come?"
Kondo Miyuki also knew that her sudden arrival would seem a bit surprising, but she still smiled and explained:
"Auntie was just thinking that I hadn't seen little sister Ruri for a long time, so I thought I'd come over to see her."
"Natsume-kun, you won't mind, right?"
Natsume Chikage shook his head and smiled:
"How could I."
He asked curiously:
"But how did you know where we live?"
Kondo Miyuki smiled tactfully:
"Actually, I asked your relatives... Some of them knew where you lived, so they told me."
Hearing the topic of the 'main family' relatives, both Natsume siblings fell silent instantly.
And Kondo Miyuki obviously understood that the Natsume main family did not welcome the two siblings.
Knowing they didn't like hearing about the main family, she quickly changed the subject:
"By the way, sister Ruri, how are your grades at school recently?"
Natsume Ruri smiled modestly:
"Auntie Miyuki, my grades are very stable, still in the top ten of the school."
Natsume Chikage rubbed his sister's head and smiled:
"More than that, actually, she's first in the whole school."
Kondo Miyuki widened her eyes and said in surprise:
"First in the whole school, that's great."
"So for your tuition, sister Ruri, should there be a school scholarship?"
Natsume Ruri smiled slightly:
"Mm."
"The school gives me a full scholarship."
"Tuition, books, miscellaneous fees, and so on are basically all covered."
Kondo Miyuki smiled with relief:
