She was somewhat amused and exasperated. She shook her head, then continued to look down and earnestly clean Luo Chen's ears.
Although the person in question was already asleep, it didn't affect her work at all. About half an hour later, she gently stretched.
He carefully laid Luo Chen down on the bed and then covered him with a blanket.
Looking at Luo Chen's handsome face as he slept soundly, Hinatsuru Akina gently said, "Goodnight, young master."
Squeak.
I turned off the lights, closed the door, and left the room.
Chapter 258 The lady is so virtuous!
Luo Chen didn't know when he fell asleep last night, but anyway, Hinatsuru Ashina's ear-cleaning skills were truly exceptional.
Very comfortable.
I was enjoying myself so much that I fell asleep.
When she slowly opened her eyes, she was met with a slightly chubby, adorable loli face.
"Oh ho ho, Master~!"
Hina Tsuru Ai noticed that her master had woken up and happily greeted him.
"Hmm..." Luo Chen sat up in bed, shook his head to wake himself up, and glanced around. The room was empty, except for Chuhe Ai, an elementary school student.
"Where is Lady Chuzuru?" Luo Chen asked subconsciously.
"Oh, Kasan?" Hinatsuru Ai looked puzzled, but still answered obediently, "Preparing breakfast. Kasan asked Ai to come and watch over Master. When Master wakes up, we'll go eat breakfast together."
Luo Chen suddenly realized, feeling both amused and exasperated. He cursed inwardly, "What are you thinking? Hinatsuru Akina left last night."
Why is he suddenly asking this kind of question now?
"Master~! Oh, Kassan's breakfast is super, super delicious! I love it the most, and I'm sure you'll love it too!"
Chuhe loves to show off her mother's breakfast-making skills.
Luo Chen smiled, ruffled the head of the little crane, and said, "Take me to the washing area, and we'll go there after I've washed up."
"Ok!"
The young crane nodded its little head vigorously, leading the way and taking Luo Chen to the washing area.
On the way, Luo Chen wondered why it was so far from his room just to wash up.
After arriving at the destination, I understood some of it.
"Ai, you didn't take me to the place where Lady Chuhe washes up, did you?" Luo Chen looked around the bathroom and saw that it was clearly for women.
Various cosmetics, towels, and two pieces of clothing that seemed to have just been changed all demonstrated the purpose of this place and its owner.
"No, Ai also washes up here 〃々."
Hinatsuru Ai shook her head seriously and said, "After all, Master isn't an outsider, so of course we can't wash up outside!"
What a flimsy excuse... Luo Chen sighed helplessly, but he didn't care. After Chuhe Ai found a disposable toothbrush and cup, he began to wash up.
After everything was over, Hinatsuru Ai took him to the restaurant.
"Please have a seat, Master."
A primary school student eagerly pulled out a chair and said with a smile.
"Shall we dine in the inner hall?"
Luo Chen touched the tip of his nose, feeling somewhat flattered. Actually, he thought it was quite nice to eat out with everyone.
To my utter surprise, Hinatsuru Akina cooked breakfast specifically for him; it was truly...
"The young master is here?"
Hinatsuru Akina came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of breakfast.
She was still wearing a black yukata, but now she had a cream-colored apron over her shoulders and gloves on her hands.
After setting down the plate of pastries, Hinatsuru Akina smiled slightly and said, "Try some of my pastries too. They're definitely not as good as JS Ken's, but they're my family's traditional recipe."
Seeing how casual Hinatsuru Akina was, Luo Chen thought for a moment, then decided not to be coy anymore, smiled, and readily nodded: "Okay."
I picked up the pastry and took a bite.
It's very crispy.
The taste is quite strange, a mixture of sweetness and a hint of bitterness. When you eat it, it's bitter at first and then sweet.
A very strange taste sensation.
However, it is precisely because of the bitterness before the sweetness that this pastry's aroma and sweetness surpasses that of most other pastries.
The most peculiar thing is that, precisely because it is bitter before sweet, the sweetness that follows doesn't feel cloying at all.
After Luo Chen finished eating, he slowly opened his eyes and found that Hinatsuru Akina and Hinatsuru Ai, one big and one small, were looking at him eagerly.
Luo Chen chuckled, touched the tip of his nose, and said, "It's delicious. Madam is too modest. This pastry is absolutely comparable to the pastries JS researched before."
"Hehe! Ai knew Master would love it too!" Hinatsuru Ai happily raised her hand, poured out a small bowl, and said cheerfully, "I'll give some to Ayano and the others!"
Holding a small bowl full of pastries, the young crane ran out with nimble steps.
Hinatsuru Akina watched her daughter leave before turning her gaze away, smiling, and saying, "Young Master, please wait a moment, the rest will be ready soon."
"Yes." Luo Chen nodded naturally.
Let's wait until everything is served.
On the table are: first, family-made pastries; two servings of steaming, milky tofu; two perfectly grilled steaks; two slices of cheese bread; and two servings of sweet miso soup.
"Young Master, do you prefer miso or milk for breakfast?" Hinatsuru Akina asked, not sitting down immediately after serving breakfast.
“I’m not a picky eater,” Luo Chen said.
"Is that so?"
Hinatsuru Akina nodded, then turned and went to the kitchen, bringing over a glass of hot milk. She said, "Well, young master, please choose whatever you would like to drink."
So the choice has been thrown back at us.
Luo Chen blinked, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Lady Chuhe is truly too virtuous!"
Things can always be done perfectly, which is very satisfying.
Hmm... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the cold and strong-willed woman, Hinatsuru Akina, when they first met.
It's such a world of difference compared to now.
"Young master, please give it a try. I haven't made breakfast in a long time, and my skills have become quite rusty."
Hinatsuru Akina said with some shame.
"No, I think the breakfasts Madam makes are so delicious that just looking at them makes one's mouth water."
Luo Chen smiled and praised him, while cutting off a piece of steak and tasting it.
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Beyond the far moon, such craftsmanship could probably be considered the pinnacle!
I also tried a bite of cheese bread.
fragrant!!
Since both miso and milk were served, Luo Chen really didn't know which one to choose. He felt that leaving the other one uneaten would be disrespectful, so he simply took a sip of both.
"Puch!"
Seeing Luo Chen's appearance, Hinatsuru Akina couldn't help but laugh, shaking her head and softly sighing and teasing:
"I never expected that the young master, who is always so elegant and doesn't seem like his age, would have such an adorable side."
Chapter 259 He hated her to death, yet he was also incredibly grateful.
"Have it?"
Luo Chen looked up, blinked, and under Hinatsuru Ayana's smiling gaze, silently continued eating.
Hinatsuru Akina stopped talking, put her hands together in gratitude, and then began to eat as well.
Finished breakfast.
Luo Chen wiped his mouth and said, "Madam Chuhe, I must excuse myself for a moment. I have brought so many people with me this time, and I need to personally arrange everyone's activities for the next two days."
"An event?"
Hinatsuru Akina said casually, "Young Master, you don't need to worry about such trivial matters. As the core base of the Hinatsuru family's hot spring resort, we have enough waiters here. Moreover, I made a simple arrangement last night to ensure that everyone can have a good time here."
Luo Chen was taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "Madam is too thoughtful."
Hinatsuru Akina's eyes flickered, her emotions subdued, and instead, with a hint of nervousness and worry, she asked, "Young Master, are you worried that I'm meddling?"
"Hmm?" Luo Chen gave Hinatsuru Akina a strange look and shook his head: "Of course not. I'd love to be able to relax."
"Really?" Hinatsuru Akina asked.
