"Wake them up right now! Clean up outside first! I don't like dragging things out!"

"Yes! Hey! Wake up, Iori, it's time to get to work!"

"Damn it! We've all assembled on time, why are they resorting to violence!"

With a long slit pulled up on her cheek, Kitahara Iori was so shocked by the pain that she sprang up from the ground, accidentally waking up the innocent Chisa as well.

Without the slightest delay, he immediately grabbed that bastard You by the collar; he had to get justice for his suffering!

"You have the nerve to say that? Sleeping outside the shop on your first day, that's really something. Here's breakfast..."

"You're such a kind person, Yu!"

"Uh... what's going on? Has Iori been bribed by breakfast again?"

After struggling to his feet, Iori didn't want to know whether she had been subjected to violence, but breakfast after a hangover was definitely not to be missed!

However, to his surprise, You seemed to have a change of heart today, and the lunchbox he handed over was unusually well-deserved. Has this kid changed his ways?

"Eating so well even though it's not a holiday? Yu, hurry up and share the winning lottery ticket!"

"It's a pity we don't have such a thing! But Kohei, how have I treated you guys usually?"

Her professional smile instantly crumbled, and with a disgruntled expression, she tucked the heartless Iori and Kohei under her arms, looking at the two insatiable eaters with a mixture of threat and enticement.

"It's alright, but what are you up to?"

"It's just to promote GrandBlue's employee benefits, so please cooperate! Otherwise, I'll secretly heat up all your beer from now on!"

“How vicious!”

Upon hearing that Yu was actually going to steal the precious beer, Kitahara Iori and Imamura Kohei's eyes flashed with horror, and they instantly became serious and entered their scum mode, ready to be ordered around!

"Sister? What are Yu and the others doing? Mom didn't give him a hard time yesterday, did she?"

Having just woken up, rubbing her head, she saw the three members of the Pab club plotting something. Kotegawa Chisa's face fell, and she began to worry about her mother's future.

After all, hiring these scumbags might be the worst decision the other party has ever made. Hopefully, Yu isn't so despicable as to be heartless towards his own family!

"I don't know, but it should be... okay, right?"

Biting her lower lip with worry, Nanaka Kotegawa had doubts about whether Yu would be bullied.

Although I don't think Yu will suffer a loss, his opponent is his mother, his mother-in-law. It would be bad if he was bullied and didn't speak up!

Chapter 292 Yu is going to take over Dolphin?

"Kouhei Imamura... Ah! Please take care of me from now on!"

Hello everyone! X2

Please take good care of me~

At the Dolphin store, the new and old batches of employees met for the first time. Sayako Kotekawa leaned against the door with displeasure and raised her hand to introduce the newcomers: "This is Maki. She will introduce you to the specific work process."

"Hello everyone, I'm Maki, and I'm in charge of training and developing new recruits!"

When she first entered university, Kujo Maki was a local, and living by the sea for many years gave her a very natural wheat-colored complexion, slightly darker than that of Sayaka.

As for working in Dolphin, it was simply because I love diving and people think highly of me. Since my academic performance wasn't great, I decided to make it my main career, but...

"Although I had heard about it before, you guys really enjoyed your meal."

Despite the constant chatter around her, she added a couple of annoyed complaints after her lively self-introduction, "Have I fully adapted to life at the dive shop yet?"

"I don't know why, but I definitely feel a strange sense of affinity towards dive shops these days!"

"After all, I always sleep in the shop, so it's only natural that I'm used to it! *smack*"

With their mouths full of fried rice, Kitahara Iori and Imamura Kohei had expressions of complete entitlement on their faces, while even Chisa and Mana turned their bulging faces to the side while holding their lunchboxes.

Ultimately, eating at a restaurant is perfectly normal, isn't it? Even though this restaurant doesn't seem to be a mixed-use commercial/residential property...

"Haha~ Is that so?"

"Ultimately, it's a benefit for employees. After all, if we don't eat in the store this early, we won't have enough time, right?"

"Woo!"

As Iori pierced her heart, Kujo Maki's eyes instantly turned resentful as she recalled the rice ball she hastily stuffed into her mouth at home—that's right! With work starting at six, how could she have time to cook for herself!

Compared to the 24-hour convenience stores where you have to queue up with office workers to heat up your drinks, these guys seem surprisingly unprofessional, but their treatment is surprisingly great!

"Ah, if Ms. Maki hasn't eaten, I have some leftover bento boxes here."

"May I?"

Her eyes lit up instantly, completely unaware of the veiled malice in Miyazawa Yu's smile. Kujo Maki, as a sunny and cheerful girl, never hid her desires, especially among her colleagues!

"I want!"

"Cough cough!"

Maki coughed twice to remind him, but he didn't notice. However, the senior manager, Ms. Heipi, keenly caught the death stare coming from behind the manager's sunglasses!

Her not-so-bright little brain turned a couple of times, glanced at her senior colleague and then at the shop manager, suppressed the joy on her lips, accepted the bento box, hid it behind her back, and immediately switched to work mode.

"In short, this is a new store that's about to open for business, you've all heard that, right?"

"Ah."

"You heard right!"

"So! We need to do a rehearsal before the official opening, and therefore we need you to play the roles of the 'difficult customers'!"

A small blackboard was dragged over, and Kujo Maki patted the to-do list on it. Kotekawa Sayaka explained at the same time, "This is to test the staff's ability to adapt to unexpected situations."

"I see, that's a very meticulous plan. Then I'll play the role of a shop assistant..."

With his arms crossed and looking at the densely packed to-do list on the blackboard, Miyazawa Yu had only raised one finger and was about to make a suggestion when his sentence was abruptly cut off.

"You play the customer, and Chisa and Nanaka will play the shop assistants with us. That's the assignment!"

"Well, we can't really play the role of a troublesome customer. We've been working as shop assistants for so long and all the customers we've encountered have been very friendly!"

Had her intentions been detected? Shaking her head regretfully, Miyazawa Yu had originally intended to showcase her superb customer service skills, but she hadn't expected the counterattack to come so quickly.

"Don't worry about that! I heard it from another GrandBlue store manager, Kotegawa! You guys are all a bit slow!"

"..."

Maintaining her smile, Miyazawa Yu stood frozen in place before stiffly turning to Kujo Maki to confirm, "Uncle Toshio? Hahaha! He must have been so busy he made a typo~"

"No! Actually, we got the photos from Uncle Toshio beforehand!"

She handed over a photo of Miyazawa Yuu naked and Iori Kohei drinking together, and Kujo Maki clenched her fist and affirmed, "If they keep going like this, they'll definitely be considered abnormal!"

"...Haha, look, the head and body don't match, it must be photoshopped..."

"Uncle Toshio even said that you can change size anywhere, and we were even planning to set up a stage in the store so you could perform for customers 24 hours a day to attract business!"

The photo was tightly held in the center of his palm, and veins bulged on Miyazawa Yu's forehead. The feeling of his underwear being pierced came back again!

Uncle Toshio is really mischievous, leaving him no room to establish a persona at all. Is this the kind of mutual respect and cyber protection between husband and wife?

"Heh~ you little brat!"

Feeling triumphant, Saya Furudekawa, who had been feeling down for a long time, suddenly felt pleased to see this little brat get his comeuppance and raised an eyebrow, revealing an undisguised wicked smile.

Now that I think about it, my husband's kind-hearted nature isn't so bad after all. I'll go home and visit once Dolphin is on track. I'm still a little missing him...

"Hiss... Did Aunt Sayawa break the ice just now?"

"So scary!"

On the other side, quite frightened, Yoshihara Aina and the remaining three members of Pab huddled in a corner, looking at Furudekawa Sayaka with terrified eyes.

You have to understand that this is someone even colder than Chisa, a true aloof beauty whose expression didn't change at all when mother and daughter met, yet she actually revealed such an evil expression!

Even though only one night has passed, just how heinous must You have done to feel such intense pleasure in revenge!

"To be honest, I've never seen her with such a smug look on her face before!"

Speaking of shock, Chisa was the one who found it hardest to accept it among the four. As the second daughter, she had the absolute right to speak about the extent of her mother's icy demeanor.

"Iori! Quickly use your invincible scumbag thinking to analyze what heinous thing Yu has done. Should we call the police?!"

"Wait! Calm down!"

Raising his hand to block the flustered Chisa, Kitahara Iori covered half his face with a sharp look in his eyes, his CPU clearly running at maximum power!

Suddenly, in a flash of inspiration, he widened his eyes and analyzed some useful information.

"Ugh, don't you guys think Yu is being a little too enthusiastic towards Maki? It's like..."

Pointing at Yu, who had resigned himself to the situation but whose gaze was locked in a fierce confrontation with Aunt Sayaka, he said in a deep voice, "Just like with us, this guy isn't trying to possess Dolphin too, is he? Just like Grand Blue!"

"What!?" X4

……

"There's really nothing we can do. Let's go. Iori and Kohei are being treated like weirdos!"

On the other hand, having been betrayed by Uncle Toshio, Yu Miyazawa had no choice but to temporarily abandon his patriarchal persona and return to his normal form to greet the other guys who had been assigned as guests.

Outside the Dolphin store, looking at the other three silent men with their heads down, he tilted his head in confusion and asked, "What's wrong? If it's nothing, just come in normally. After all, we're unwelcome guests..."

"Yu..."

With her eyes hidden under her bangs, Yoshihara Aina slowly walked up to the poor child, cupped his cheeks in her hands, and looked up with tearful, pitying eyes.

"I know your aunt doesn't accept this and it makes you resentful, but this isn't Izu. Possession will only make everyone unhappy!"

"Huh? What are you saying..."

"No need to explain! We already know that you suffered a lot at Aunt Sayawa's house, right!"

Iori and Kohei had even started sobbing. Yoshihara Aina lovingly pulled Yu's head into her arms to comfort him, her arm veins bulging, but to little avail.

"Wait a minute! You guys must have misunderstood something!"

Not wanting to experience the feel of fake breasts, Miyazawa Yu straightened her body speechlessly, while Aina's small arms and legs couldn't be pulled at all by the muscles.

He reached out and lightly flicked her forehead, then, taking advantage of her pain, he whispered, "I wasn't bullied. Even though it's a sofa, my mother-in-law thoughtfully prepared beer for me!"

"Then what are you..."

"Hmm...it's complicated to explain, but in short, I hope to infiltrate my mother-in-law's daily life and gain her approval through my actions, understand!"

"It's so hard to understand, love and all that!"

Chin resting on his hand, Kohei Imamura, who didn't even have a girlfriend, naturally couldn't understand why Yu's way of winning over his future mother-in-law was so unconventional, but...

"If you need any help, just let us know. Although we're not good with words, we can still say a few nice things!"

"You guys..."

Although it was all for nothing, seeing the scoundrels who were willing to lend a thumbs up and help, Miyazawa Yu nodded with relief: "Yeah, I understand!"

Chapter 293 We are a very loving couple!

Meanwhile, inside the shop, Nanaka Kotegawa and Sayaka were calmly looking at each other, expressing their attitudes through their actions without saying a word or making any gestures.

"...I didn't bully him. Although he slept on the sofa, at least he had a pillow."

For Sayaka Kotekawa, her daughter's gentle gaze was incredibly captivating. After making several feints to cover her embarrassment, she finally couldn't help but speak first.

There was no way around it; his eldest daughter was just like her father to an extreme. Although she didn't say anything, her tender and affectionate eyes could always make the aloof Xuesong inadvertently bend over.

"Looking at me like that won't do any good... Chisa! Why haven't those boys come in yet? Is it really that hard to play the role of a difficult customer?"

"..."

The longing in her eyes as she looked at her mother was shattered. Kotegawa Chisa narrowed her eyes, feeling like she was being used as a punching bag. Sure enough, her older sister really had a firm grip on the family hierarchy.

However, her heart, which had been pounding with anxiety because of her strict mother, also calmed down a little.

Compared to an ice queen who never says a word and hides all her thoughts behind sunglasses, a mother who breaks the ice and lets her guard down is more likely to make people feel close to her!

"Um... I'll go and urge them!"

"Well, never mind. After all, they're guests. Maybe being late is part of the problem?"

"..."

Chisa Kotegawa paused in her act of turning to open the door, vowing that if Iori dared to fool her so capriciously, she would definitely hit him hard on the back of the head with whatever was at hand.

But her mother decided against it, because her fingers, which were twitching slightly from the repeated jumping, were tucked behind her back. She obediently stood with the local shop assistant, waiting for inspection.
