Chapter 358 Bathing at Eri Kisaki's House
In the kitchen at Hibiki Eri's house.
This was not the first time that Shimizu Koji had come here, so he was familiar with the placement of dishes, seasonings, pots and spoons, etc., at least there would not be a situation where two people would be in a rush.
He did not do anything else, just simply helped wash and cut vegetables.
At first, Hibiki Eri felt a little uncomfortable, but after seeing that Shimizu Koji was really honest and dutiful, like a well-behaved and sensible boy, she felt relieved and secretly felt a lot more relaxed. She even had a very strange feeling, but that feeling, Hibiki Eri herself was unwilling to think about and ponder.
Looking at the chopping board, Shimizu Koji had already cut and arranged the shallots, potatoes, and green peppers, and the potato shreds were crystal clear, but this was obviously not the dish she originally wanted to make.
Originally, Hibiki wanted to make stewed potatoes with rice and fried food to satisfy herself. However, she couldn't say anything directly to Shimizu Koji's rash behavior of helping her change the menu. She couldn't just say that she just wanted to steam potatoes, otherwise she would completely expose her embarrassing cooking skills to outsiders.
Even last time, she just seemed to be a little unskilled in seasoning. Hibiki lifted the hair by her ear, hesitated for a moment, turned back to the refrigerator, took out five eggs, and then smashed them into a large bowl, added some water, and stirred slowly.
Shimizu Koji just took a look and didn't care. He turned and walked to the sink, intending to clean up the sundries just now.
Hibiki's kitchen is not big, or most Japanese apartment kitchens are not too big, a strip, so if Shimizu Koji wants to walk to the sink, he will inevitably pass by Hibiki.
Seeing what Shimizu Koji was going to do, Hibiki Eri silently took a step forward while stirring the egg liquid in her hand, trying to make way for Shimizu Koji. However, as soon as she moved her feet, her slippers slipped and she fell backwards uncontrollably.
"Ah!"
There is no doubt that if Hibiki Eri fell straight to the ground, she would have to sit at home and rest for seven or eight days, not to mention breaking a bone and going to the hospital.
Shimizu Koji was also stunned when he saw this, and then he hurriedly took a big step forward and stood directly behind Hibiki Eri, holding her up with his body.
But Hibiki Eri held her, but the bowl in Hibiki Eri's hand still flew up, and because the space was small, if she took a step back, she would be against the wall, and Shimizu Koji was holding Hibiki Eri, so it could only be said that there was no way to avoid it, and the bowl hit her on the shoulder.
With two "bangs--pa--", the bowl first hit Shimizu Koji's shoulder, and then fell directly to the ground. The scattered porcelain pieces and the yellow egg liquid made the entire floor dirty in an instant.
And Shimizu Koji was not spared. His clothes and pants were also splashed with yellow egg liquid.
"Are you okay, Ms. Fei?"
Shimizu Koji shook Fei Eri in his arms vigorously, and all this was just a short moment. Fei Eri woke up from a dream, and the familiar chest and body temperature behind her made her more flustered than she almost fell down just now. With a whoosh, she stood up from Shimizu Koji's arms and ran away.
"I, I'm fine, I'm fine, ah, Koji-kun, you--"
Fei Eri turned around and was calming down. Suddenly, her eyes were stunned and she saw the yellow stains on Shimizu Koji's body. They were very clear, and they looked wet and had strings, which were particularly dazzling.
Needless to say, Shimizu Koji can no longer wear this outfit.
"It's nothing, just that the clothes are dirty, I hope you're okay, Ms. Ki."
Hisa Eri blinked her beautiful eyes, looking at Shimizu Koji's sunny smile, and the panic in her heart slowly subsided.
"Dirty clothes are a big problem. By the way, Koji-kun, don't be so polite. Just call me auntie."
As Hibiki Eri said this, she took the initiative to walk forward and carefully looked at Shimizu Koji's clothes. Shimizu Koji smiled innocently, scratched his head, and looked quite shy and said, "Auntie Eri, isn't this a bit too old?"
Hibiki Eri paused, looked up, and saw Shimizu Koji's expression, "Huh? Koji-kun, do you still care about these things?"
"However, Koji-kun, you are quite different now from when we first met. At the beginning, I thought you were a very cold boy."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. You know the bathroom. Go take a shower by yourself. Put the clothes you change into the washing machine. You should be able to wash them."
Hibiki Eri's attitude was like that of a gentle elder, and Shimizu Koji just nodded quietly, like a filial and obedient young man.
However, when he reached the kitchen door, Shimizu Koji hesitated, "Well, how can I change clothes after taking a bath?"
Hisagi Eri's eyes did not change, and it seemed that she had already thought of a solution, "There is a bathrobe in the bathroom, so I'll ask you to wear it for a while. After dinner, I will help you take out the clothes and dry and iron them."
"Oh, okay, I know, Aunt Eri."
"Well, go ahead, I'll clean up the kitchen, and when you finish taking a bath, the meal will be almost ready."
Hiki Eri was moved by Shimizu Koji's simplicity and innocence. Moreover, in that situation just now, Shimizu Koji also saved her crucially and did not take the opportunity to make a move. He was very obedient and honest. Therefore, that time was really just an accident, so let it go.
Therefore, Kisaki Eri temporarily put aside the grudge in her heart and planned to entertain Shimizu Koji seriously. However, when he heard that she wanted to prepare the meal during this time, Shimizu Koji, who was originally walking with peace of mind, could not walk again.
"Huh? What's wrong, Koji-kun?"
"Ah"
After struggling for a moment, he still didn't want to break this short and harmonious atmosphere. Shimizu Koji chose to hold it in. At most, he would just eat a few bites less.
Anyway, Kisaki Eri also wanted to eat it, and he couldn't force him to eat it even though he knew it was not delicious.
"Nothing, I'll leave it to you, Auntie Eri."
"Well, no problem, don't worry, I know what you're worried about, Koji-kun. I've made a lot of contacts recently, and I'm pretty sure about the seasoning."
Hisa Eri chuckled confidently, which was both the confidence in seeing through what Shimizu Koji was thinking and the confidence in her own cooking skills (seasoning).
When she said that, Shimizu Koji smiled awkwardly, nodded in approval, and walked straight to the bathroom.
