Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 276

At this point, although the comic has not yet been published, Su Qing can be considered a comic artist for the time being.

So that very evening, he immediately shared the good news with Mahiru.

The other person seemed even happier than he was, jumping and skipping into his arms; this was probably one of her ways of celebrating.

For the next few days, life remained as peaceful as ever.

Hachiman still often hunches over, and only when Saika stares at him with displeasure will he straighten up properly, looking exactly like a henpecked husband.

Whenever this happened, Su Qing would laugh at his friend from the side.

However, perhaps because he had spent a lot of time with him, Hikigaya's skin had become a bit thicker.

Instead of feeling ashamed, he curled his lip and said with some disdain:

Even if someone is henpecked... the prerequisite is that they still have a 'wife', right?

Su Qing was speechless and had to swallow a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

Fortunately, he and Mahiru would always choose to have lunch together during lunchtime.

The chosen locations are usually mostly from Class C, where Su Qing is.

If there's any other change besides that, it's probably that Yui goes to the Service Club more often at lunchtime.

Speaking of this girl with pink hair, she still maintains her energetic appearance every day after her self-study trip.

When she sees Su Qing, she greets him with a smile and her usual strange "Hey hello~", and she chats with him naturally, cracking jokes.

He stopped asking Su Qing questions about his studies, and the various candies he used to keep in his schoolbag were gradually disappearing.

Su Qing knew all of this, but she didn't say anything.

One morning, Su Qing arrived unusually early. Sitting in her seat, she would occasionally stare blankly at the girl's desk next to her...

……

Time flies, and Saturday is here in the blink of an eye.

Today is the day I've been invited to the Hikigaya family's house.

On the night before she left, Su Qingcai tried asking Maju if she wanted to come along.

After asking for details and learning that Saturday was supposed to be his club "gathering," the girl declined, saying she had other things to do.

Su Qing didn't mind, and left after saying goodbye to Mahiru.

After the other person left, the girl secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the door and ran back to her room, where a tablet and a stylus were on her desk.

As for the phone, it was placed on a stand, where some basic drawing tutorials from Bilibili were playing on pause.

Mahiru sat down, put on her headphones, and continued her journey as a "manga artist's assistant."

She hadn't had much experience with this before, but because of Su Qing, she learned that being a cartoonist is a very tiring and troublesome job, and usually requires at least one assistant.

But Su Qing did not.

She even specifically asked if she would look for him if he debuted.

But the other party refused decisively, saying that it was unnecessary and would only slow down his manuscript production speed.

The girl thought to herself that the other person was really clumsy. Why not take advantage of the opportunity to lighten the workload a little?

It's okay if the manuscript takes a little longer to be published.

If you urgently need money, she still has some left...

Forget it.

Su Qing probably wouldn't accept that kind of situation, right?

Moreover, I seem to be quite "clumsy" myself.

Because she started from scratch and was self-taught, her progress was not smooth; in fact, she faced numerous setbacks.

Not long after, Mahiru looked down at her "failed work" and sighed softly.

In fact, she had started studying secretly a few days ago, but after several days she hadn't made much progress, and even she couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

But this is actually quite normal.

Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. For example, even a genius like Su Qing can't cook, but Zhen Zhou can easily win him over with her stomach.

In fact, failure and setbacks are always to be expected.

Mahiru, who was lying on the table, blinked her tired eyes, looking somewhat lazy and cute.

But then, as if she had just thought of something, she quickly opened a photo in her album.

Then his thumb gently stroked the face of one of the men above.

That was Su Qing, and in the photo she was being lovingly embraced by the other person.

Mahiru stared for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing, looking very happy.

The girl then bit her lip lightly and patted her cheeks gently, as if to cheer herself up.

Like a fish that has drunk water, she began to concentrate on her studies again.

……

……

Chapter 332 Komachi

?

Since it was a group activity, everyone first went to the agreed-upon station to meet, and then walked together to the destination.

After successfully meeting up with Yukino and Yui, Su Qing and the two of them traveled together to Hikigaya's house.

Unlike them, who lived in a residential complex, Hachiman's house was a two-story detached house, which is considered a detached house in Japan. Based on this alone, Su Qing could deduce that the other party's family background was not bad.

They can at least be considered middle class.

After pressing the doorbell, the owner's voice quickly came from inside the house.

It was a girl's voice, still somewhat childish, with a hint of urgency, "Coming, coming, please wait a moment longer."

Not long after, the door opened with a "click".

Then, a petite girl with eyes exactly like Hachiman Hikigaya came into view.

Having guessed everyone's identities, she smiled sweetly, revealing a pair of cute little tiger teeth.

"Are you my brother's friends? Nice to meet you. I'm Komachi Hikigaya, his sister."

"Oh...you've arrived."

Hachiman also came up behind Komachi and greeted Su Qing and the others.

"Sorry for bothering you."

Yukino nodded slightly.

Because the weather was getting colder, Komachi didn't keep everyone waiting outside for long. She quickly invited everyone inside and they sat on the floor around the fireplace in the living room.

"Hachiman, is everyone here?"

Just then, another female voice came from the kitchen. She was very young and clearly not the mother of the Hikigaya siblings.

"Now that everyone's here, it's the first time so many people have come to our house. It feels quite strange."

Hachiman scratched his ear, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"Silly brother, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and serve tea to the guests, or go to the kitchen to help Sister Caijia. In short, stop standing there like an idiot!"

Komachi seemed very dissatisfied with her brother's behavior, and ordered him with her hands on her hips.

"learn……"

"I'm fine... I just finished my work. I'm always grateful for your help, so I thought I'd come here early to repay you."

Saika came out of the kitchen with a smile to help Hachiman out of the predicament, carrying a plate of snacks and tea.

Seeing this, Hachiman immediately stepped forward and took it, saying, "Let me help you carry it..."

"Well, thank you."

Saika smiled at Hachiman, who immediately blushed.

"Don't push me..."

At the kotatsu, Yukino was attacked by a ball of slimes and muttered to Yui in a low voice.

The kotatsu (heated table) isn't very big; there's only enough room for one person to sit in each of the four corners, but two girls could squeeze in.

Moreover, with winter approaching, it's even warmer to squeeze in.

Therefore, the current seating arrangement is: Yukino and Yui, Saika and Komachi, while Su Qing and Hachiman, being boys, sit alone.

"Won't that solve the problem?"

After adjusting her position, Yui asked.

"Sorry... the kotatsu table at home is a bit small."

Noticing this, Komachi said somewhat apologetically.

"It's okay, it's okay, Xiaoxue and I are used to this!"

Yui replied instinctively, but unexpectedly found the situation somewhat awkward.

"What are you talking about...?"

Yukino sighed and glanced helplessly at Yui.

Although there seems to be nothing wrong with it, it feels "strange" to say it in this context.

"It's alright, it's alright, I understand you two, you really have a good relationship!"

Komachi wasn't entirely aware of the specifics, but she still kindly smoothed things over for him.

"Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Yukino Yukinoshita, the club president."

Because she entered so hastily, Komachi didn't actually know who was who.

"Su Qing, your brother's friend."

Su Qing said succinctly.

"I am Yui Yuigahama... Edo Edo, one of the members of the club?"

Oh, by the way, we were in the same class after Xiaoxue.

Yui thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how to position herself, so she simply introduced her class.

Because Saika arrived early, she was not introduced again.

After the self-introductions, it was time for the much-anticipated snacks and casual conversation.

Komachi explained the purpose of the invitation.

With tears in her eyes, she said:

"Waaah, I never thought my silly older brother would make such great progress in his second year of college and make so many friends all of a sudden."

Komachi, I was so excited that I couldn't help but ask him to invite you all over.

He is truly grateful for everyone's care and support!

"Pfft, you idiot bro."

Su Qing couldn't help but laugh.

"Please don't portray me as so pitiful..."

Hachiman tried to gain some say, but Komachi's death stare made him shrink back.

Seeing her lonely older brother quiet down, Komachi nodded in satisfaction.

"Komachi is telling the truth, so your rebuttal to me scored very low in Komachi's eyes! But you cut your losses in time, so you can get some points back."

After saying that, Komachi grinned and showed off her little tiger teeth.

"You two siblings have a very good relationship."

Su Qing's eyes revealed a look of reminiscence as she sighed.
