Tokyo landlord: why is the panties of the lady next door in my house?!-Chapter 367 - 226 The Spice Girl Sisters

Hearing the little girl’s words,

Haruka Yuzan now wasn’t sure if he should stop, but the pint-sized person in front of him still tried to move forward without regard, so he had to maintain his original posture.

"You know her?"

Facing the boy’s confusion, Arisugawa Hoshina also felt speechless and patted her forehead lightly. She sighed softly before slowly speaking,

"Okay, Mai, this is your brother, not a bad person. Stop causing trouble."

"Huh?"

Arisugawa Mai halted her just-now action, scratching her little head in confusion, "But, but I clearly saw him touch Sis’s waist!"

The little one blinked her large eyes, her features bearing a resemblance to Arisugawa Hoshina’s,

"But, but Sis, you said you didn’t have a boyfriend, right?"

Haruka Yuzan heard this and, before Spice Girl could speak, he took it upon himself to initiate the conversation,

"Hello there, Mai!"

As he spoke, he bent down, revealing a very kind smile, "I’m your sister’s boyfriend, Haruka Yuzan."

That statement instantly made both sisters blush.

"You, you, my sister clearly said she didn’t have a boyfriend...."

Being approached so suddenly by the boy, Arisugawa Mai’s face turned red. "And besides, my sister said, all handsome guys are liars!"

After saying this, the little girl ran off to the back of Arisugawa Hoshina, gripping tightly to Spice Girl’s upper garment, her head peeking out without the courage she had shown before.

"So, is brother a handsome guy?"

Haruka Yuzan grinned, these cute little creatures are of course meant to be teased!!

"You, I, you, you...."

Sure enough, after hearing his question, Arisugawa Mai’s face reddened even more, her speech became nervous, and she visibly started to panic.

Although she was an introverted little one, she had mustered the courage just now to protect her sister, hadn’t she?

What a good child indeed.

Arisugawa Hoshina looked at Haruka Yuzan with some speechlessness and then rubbed the little one’s head, "Don’t worry, Haruka is just joking with you, he’s a good person."

He’s a good person?

Although it sounded a bit odd, Haruka Yuzan still displayed a gentle smile, "Rest assured, Mai, I really am a good person."

"Hmph!!"

Arisugawa Mai hmphed twice but still wouldn’t come out from behind Spice Girl.

Seeing this, Arisugawa Hoshina let out a sigh of helplessness, "Mai, why are you here today..."

"Dad came back, Mom said to let me go out and play first."

Arisugawa Mai obediently said, but when the little girl mentioned her father, her eyes darted away, and that evasive look didn’t escape Haruka Yuzan’s attention.

There were domestic issues involved, weren’t there?

After hearing her sister’s words, Spice Girl clearly froze for a moment, a flicker of impatience crossing her eyes, and she muttered,

"Dad came back?"

"Yes, Dad came back, and Mom told me to go out first...."

As she spoke, Arisugawa Mai suddenly lifted her head, looking at her sister with eyes full of concern,

"Sis, you better not come home today... Dad, he...."

She didn’t finish her sentence, only tentatively glancing at Haruka Yuzan before quietly closing her mouth.

But Haruka Yuzan naturally guessed the meaning she wished to convey.

Those kinds of family relations one usually sees only in news reports and television dramas.

No wonder Hoshina, who was actually a very pure and kind person, chose to portray the tough image of a delinquent girl.

Was Spice Girl just a guise to protect herself?

It seemed as if painful memories flooded Arisugawa Hoshina’s mind, and from deep within, a loathing for that fear emerged.

After a long silence, she eventually exhaled slowly,

"It’s okay, Sis is back now, leave it to me to handle."

After speaking, Spice Girl reached out and patted the little girl’s head.

"Hmph!" Arisugawa Mai seemed to really enjoy the touch from her beloved sister, comfortably nuzzling into the girl’s palm like an obedient little kitten.

As Arisugawa Hoshina looked at her blissful sister, her eyes softened with a mixture of distress and resolve, as if she had made a firm decision, she whispered,

"Mai, you have to believe in Sis, I will definitely make sure you have a good life in the future, I promise."

"Mhm, I’ve always believed in you, Sis!" Arisugawa Mai nodded earnestly, but her clear, sparkling eyes betrayed a glimpse of hesitation and worry,

"Sis, let’s just play outside a bit longer, wait until Dad leaves before we go back..."

"It’s okay, don’t be afraid."

Arisugawa Hoshina comforted her sister in a soft voice, and at this moment, Haruka Yuzan also stood out, stepping up to the sisters and while wrapping his arm around Spice Girl’s supple waist, he smiled warmly at Mai,

"Don’t worry, Mai, everything is still in my hands, otherwise why would I be here today? Leave it to me."

Maybe it was Haruka’s friendly smile or the fact that he was a male, giving a sense of security, but the previously worried Arisugawa Mai, upon hearing his words, nodded vigorously.

It seemed... the worry and fear in her eyes diminished greatly.
