Chapter 616 Purchasing(2/2)
"You don't need to say that. Anyway, I did it voluntarily, and Yusuke, you will also take back my share of the purchase. We each get what we need."
The girl expressed disapproval, looking back and forth on the dazzling array of shelves.
Due to family circumstances, Hui often takes the initiative to cook at home.
There is no special reason for saying this, it's just that the girl's family occasionally forgets to prepare her due to her invisibility.
Over time, the master developed excellent cooking skills.
As for Kato Yusuke, he lives alone and has to go out for shopping regularly.
Based on this situation, it is actually very convenient for both of them to go shopping together.
For example, supermarkets often launch large-volume specials, but the portions are too much for one person.
And if two people come together, they can share it equally with each other.
The advantage of this is that the girl can buy an extra copy of the special product that is limited to one per person.
When Megumi does a lot of shopping, Kato Yusuke can also help her take back things she can't carry.
but……
'This should be considered an excuse specially created for me.'
He couldn't help but whisper in his heart.
Living alone, coupled with the days when he was isolated, he had no time to cook. He only ate instant noodles, frozen food and fast food every day.
It was precisely because he saw this that Hui offered to help him cook.
Whenever they go shopping together, the girl will come directly to his home and help him prepare several side dishes and dishes that are easy to store.
Frankly speaking, Kato Yusuke felt very sorry and guilty for the other party, and felt very sorry.
On the contrary, Hui always maintained an understatement attitude, which made him unconsciously dependent.
Subtly, the other party seems to have entered his life and become an indispensable existence...
"Yusuke, do you still have toothpaste there?"
"Well, it seems we're almost running out."
"Then I'll put it in the basket. Also, I remember that there doesn't seem to be much stock powder left. Do you want to buy it?"
"want."
"Where's the miso paste?"
"Sorry, I want that one too."
"Hmm~~ Let's buy some kombu and bonito flakes too, right?"
"It doesn't matter to me, but that doesn't seem to be a necessity, right?"
"Having said that, you really like miso soup, right? This is a rare opportunity, and I want to try making miso soup for you using the dashi I made myself."
"Wouldn't that take a lot of time? Just use dashi powder instead as usual."
"However, the stock you make yourself will taste much better than the stock powder. Anyway, we have a lot of time today, how about you try more sophisticated cooking occasionally?"
"good……"
Kato Yusuke scratched his cheek and just watched Megumi add various things that he wouldn't have noticed in a timely manner into the shopping basket.
This feeling is very strange and nostalgic, as if the two of them have already lived together.
As he thought, a certain girl's face suddenly appeared in his mind, and was erased in the next second.
"The regular dishes are the same as usual. I will prepare the same dishes as at home. But is there anything in particular you want to eat tonight?"
"It will be all right."
"This answer is the most nerve-wracking..."
Hui puffed up her cheeks slightly and muttered dissatisfiedly.
Kato Yusuke felt warm in his heart and said without thinking: "I don't think too much about it. As long as it's the food cooked by Megumi, I think it's delicious."
"..."
The girl narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at him with unclear meaning.
"You actually said it so firmly... If I made you the natto you hate, would you be able to eat it too?"
"——I'll eat it if you do it." Kato Yusuke answered without any hesitation.
Hearing this, a smile flashed in Hui's eyes, and then she lowered her eyes gently.
"...What, I won't do anything disgusting, so today's dinner is Oyakodon and miso soup~?"
"Parent-child rice bowl..." Yusuke Kato couldn't help but look surprised, "He's not a child..."
"There's no rule that says adults can't eat parent-child rice bowls, right?"
Hui tilted his head slightly and blinked narrowly.
"Besides, didn't you just say that no matter what I make, I will eat it?"
"..."
Kato Yusuke looked at her face, laughed dumbly and said: "Ah, that's true, then I'll leave it to you."
"Well~~ let's go buy ingredients now."
"Can I say something?"
"What's wrong?"
"Should I push the shopping cart?"
After hearing this, Hui looked at the cart in her hand and his face in turn, and then smiled helplessly.
"...Ah, although I think there is no need to bother you so much, but since Yusuke said so, why don't I bother you?"
"No trouble."
Kato Yusuke said and walked up and took the cart from her hand.
The girl looked at his actions with some amusement. Just as she was about to lift her foot forward, her right hand hanging by her leg was suddenly taken up by someone.
"……Huh?"
Looking down, she saw a big palm wrapping her hand.
She twitched slightly, but did not twitch. The other party's grip seemed to be loose, but in fact he would not let her escape easily.
"——Let's go, didn't you say you were going to buy ingredients?"
Kato Yusuke pushed the cart with one hand and said without looking sideways, not mentioning his little movements at all.
A brief moment of silence.
"...Would it be difficult to walk like this?"
"It doesn't matter, I will lead the way."
"Even if you say that, do you know where the ingredients section is?"
"You'll know by walking around. If it doesn't work, I can ask the staff for directions."
"Oh~~That doesn't reassure anyone at all..."
Kato Yusuke still wanted to quibble, but he heard this sentence.
"...Anyway, I remember that the food area seems to be on the south side, let's go that way."
Hui said, coming up to him and pointing in the direction with his free left hand.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and replied: "Yes, my lord!"
"Hey, don't use that weird name."
"Got it, Commander!"
"Ah, if you keep doing this, will I get angry?"
The two of them walked forward together, shoulder to shoulder.
This period of time that one person only finds troublesome becomes an exciting time for two people.
