Chapter 116 Let Xiaohua come to my place.
At the Starlight Bar, Uchiha Ryo turned to look at the Bond Band members chatting over there. Goodness, it's true that four of them couldn't even get a full head of black hair.
Kita Ikuyo: "I'm so sorry for leaving so suddenly that day! If I could, I would do anything to make it up to you!"
Ichi Nijika: "Well, I can't think of anything to say this so suddenly."
Ijichi Hoshika, sitting at the bar, spoke directly. "Then work a day at the Starry Night Auditorium; we're short-staffed right now."
"After all, this isn't a place for children."
Uchiha Ryo silently drank his cola; the child wasn't talking about him.
Haruka Shirasaki touched her cheek. "Work's been so tough, why don't you come over for a few drinks?"
Ijichi Hoshika glanced at Shirasaki Haruka, then looked at Shirasaki Hana, who had run off to play with Nijika.
"This is supposed to be a music bar, is it really okay for you to bring elementary school kids here? And you over there, the guy who works here, come change your clothes."
Kita Yuyo nodded, then patted the head of the little flower beside her.
"I'll do my best!"
After Kita Ikuyo finished changing, Uchiha Ryo stroked his chin and nodded. "Manager, your interests are quite interesting."
Ichi Seika chuckled, "Although it's a temporary job, the girl did a pretty good job, and the maid outfit suits her very well."
Goto Ichiri didn't dare to speak. What was going on? Why did Kita-san suddenly change into a maid outfit? And why did Ryo-san look so interested?
Nijika Ijichi: "Kita-kun cleaned so well! People who are meticulous in their work are the best."
Goto Ichiri lowered her head even further! Yes... Kita-kun is the complete opposite of her!
Yamada Ryo, who was dozing off on the other side, nodded. "Only one day of work? Let's leave Kita here so he can rest every day."
Uchiha Ryo looked at Ichichi Hoshika, "Manager, do you still have maid outfits? I think Kotori could also do this job, and it would also be good training for her."
Goto Ichiri: "!!!"
Ijichi Hoshika: "Sure, let's go change our clothes too!"
Inside the starry sky, Kita's maid bustled about happily, while Lonely's maid frantically ran around, leaving Iji Chikatsu following behind.
Uchiha Ryo: "Tsk tsk tsk, still need to practice."
On the other side, Shirasaki Haruka looked at the cheerful atmosphere in the store and suddenly asked Iji Tomoka.
"Um... do you have any free time lately?"
Ijichi Hoshika looked at Shirasaki Haruka with a puzzled expression. "What are you doing? Don't be fooled by my current free time. I have to look after the shop almost every day. I don't want to go anywhere for the time being."
Haruka Shirasaki: "That's good. It's fine at the shop. What I mean is... could you take care of my child for three days?"
Ijichi Hoshika: "Huh?!"
After glancing at Shirasaki Hana, who was eating snacks with Yamada Ryo, Ijichi Seika shook her head.
"I don't want to bring it."
Haruka Shirasaki clasped her hands together. "Please! Just take her to school during the day and pick her up from the shop in the afternoon! Hana will be a good girl!"
Ijichi Seika shook her head again, then gave Ijichi Nijika, who was following the little lonely girl, a meaningful look.
"I still refuse. I don't want to take care of children anymore. I finally raised one, and you want to dump the child on me?"
Shirasaki Haruka: "Just three days—!"
Seeing that Ichiji Hoshika was completely ignoring her thoughts, Shirasaki Haruka suddenly spoke up.
"How about... we let Xiaojing take care of them for three days? Isn't she a teacher? She should be good at taking care of children."
Ichika Hoshika chuckled. "You really dare to let her, who has never taken care of children before, take care of Hana... You'll be in for it in three days."
Hiratsuka Shizuka taking care of children... Shirasaki Haruka smiled and dismissed the idea.
"Hey? Does your Hongxia have time?"
Ijichi Hoshika pointed to the four girls over there, "Their band is just starting out, you don't want to disturb them, do you?"
Uchiha Ryo cleared his throat. "Another glass of juice, please."
Suddenly remembering something, Shirasaki Haruka exclaimed, "Oh, right! Young Master Ling! You're Xiaojing's student, right? Are your family members busy with work?"
"Huh? Well... I'm not busy at home."
Shirasaki Haruka stood up and bowed to Uchiha Ryoichi, "Could you please take care of Hana for me? I promise I'll pay you afterwards."
Although Uchiha Ryo is a boy, this young master Ryo's interests are, after all,... like the butler Hayasaka, so Shirasaki Haruka feels at ease entrusting the child to him.
Moreover, as someone who can enter and leave the Shinomiya family and is a guest of the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, his status will not make things difficult for Hana.
Uchiha Ryo glanced at Shirasaki Hana not far away. "Don't Shirasaki-nee's other friends want to agree?"
Haruka Shirasaki sighed, "They're either busy with their careers or already have one at home. I can't very well ask my male friends for help... So, Young Master Ling! Can you take care of Hana for me for just three days?"
"Little Flower, come here for a second."
At that moment, Shirasaki Hana was standing by the trash can, watching the pink-haired girl playing the guitar inside. Upon hearing her mother's voice, she immediately ran over.
"What does Young Master Ling mean?"
Uchiha Ryo pondered for a moment.
"Alright then, let Xiaohua stay with me for three days."
Shirasaki Hana looked blankly at her mother, then at Ling-gege, who was very good at making desserts.
Haruka Shirasaki clapped her hands. "Great, Hana... Mommy will be staying at her workplace for three days tomorrow, so I won't be able to pick you up from school. Um... could you stay at this Ling-nii's house for three days?"
Shirasaki Haruka looked at her daughter, worried that Hana would be reluctant to leave her. What if Hana suddenly hugged her and said, "Mommy, don't go!"?
On one hand, there was the Shinomiya family's precious job, and on the other hand, there was her beloved daughter. Shirasaki Haruka suddenly couldn't bear to hand her over to someone else.
As soon as Xiaohua says, "Mommy, don't go," I immediately call the housekeeper and tell her that I can't do the babysitting job tomorrow! Even if I get fired by the Shinomiya family, I'll stay with my child!
Shirasaki Hana blinked. "Mom's going to work again. I could go play at Hinata's house." But Hinata's older sister was acting strangely. "What if it's this older brother who makes sweets at Goto Niri's house!"
"Okay! Mom, you can go to work without worry. I'll take good care of myself."
Shirasaki Hana nodded to her mother, then ran to Uchiha Ryo.
"Brother Ling, please guide me these next three days."
