Chapter 138 Prince of Tennis Tutoring
Chapter 138 Prince of Tennis Tutoring
Outside the courtyard wall, Liu Lianji had half of his head sticking out, holding a breakfast bag in his hand. When he saw her come out, he raised the things in his hand and said, "Lan, you haven't had breakfast yet, right?"
"Lian Er?" Zhao Lan stepped aside to let him in. "Why are you here at this time today? Was the morning training cancelled?"
"Put a break from training during exam week." He shook the notebook in his other hand. "You've been on leave for too long this time, and you've fallen too far behind in math."
Zhao Lan took the breakfast bag and chuckled, "So you're here to give me extra lessons?"
"Well, I'm about to go to school," Yanagi Renji changed into slippers and glanced towards the kitchen, "Are you cooking porridge?"
"Seafood porridge, perfect together." She turned and walked into the kitchen, putting the sandwiches he brought on a plate.
The little whirlwind was circling around his own little bowl impatiently, tapping his tail on her ankles.
"Don't be anxious, little guy. It needs to cool down a little longer."
As she spoke, she first went over to serve out Little Tornado's porridge and set it aside to dry, then she took out two bowls and served one to each of them.
She copied a few side dishes from home and put them up. Yanagi Renji had already washed his hands and came over to help her serve the food.
Just as they had set the table, the doorbell rang again. Glancing at the people outside, she was slightly surprised.
"Huh? Who comes here at this time?" Liu asked after seeing her expression.
Zhao Lan looked out the door, his lips slightly raised: "Hmm,... an unexpected combination."
The door opened and Yukimura Seiichi stood in front, his violet eyes smiling: "Good morning, Arashi."
Genichirō Sanada pressed down the brim of his hat and said, “Excuse me.”
Niou Masaharu poked his head out from behind Yukimura and shook the paper bag in his hand: "Puri~ I brought the Kanagawa specialty tamagoyaki."
"Congratulations! We all watched the game, it was very exciting. I didn't expect you to be such a good basketball player!" Kirihara walked out behind him and said with a smile.
Zhao Lan leaned against the door with his arms folded and smiled, "So many people have come. Did you guys plan this together? You knew I cooked a lot of food today, so you all came together?"
She glanced at the notebooks Yukimura and Sanada were holding.
It seemed that they were here to help her study as well. Zhao Lan smiled and let them in.
"Yanagaki?!" Yukimura looked past her and looked inside at Yanagi Renji who had just walked out of the restaurant.
Niou glanced at Yukimura beside him, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face. "It seems that there are people who are more active than us."
"It seems so." Yukimura glanced at Niou, who was eager to bring chaos to the world, and looked at Yanagi again.
Yanagi Renji looked calm. He glanced at the notebooks in Yukimura and Sanada's hands and said, "Then we are thinking the same thing."
Zhao Lan coughed lightly and looked at the two of them: "Don't stand at the door, come in and have breakfast together." After getting them slippers, she turned and went into the kitchen.
Yukimura walked in gracefully, and when he passed by Liu, their shoulders touched lightly.
He tilted his head slightly, his voice was gentle but with a force that could not be ignored: "Liu is really considerate, coming to deliver breakfast so early."
Yanagi Renji looked calm, "That's right, Minister. You come here so early to make up for the missed lesson."
Just as he turned around, he thought of something and turned back to look at Yukimura: "Considering Arashi's recent absence from class, I think it is very necessary to make a reasonable study plan."
Niou glanced at them, smiled, and turned to follow Sanada in front of him.
Walking into the restaurant, he passed by Little Tornado and rubbed its head: "So today's breakfast is seafood porridge, I'm in for a treat."
Zhao Lan ignored them. She copied the porridge in the pot into several portions and also prepared some side dishes.
Looking at the portions, plus the food they brought, it should be enough for them to eat before stopping.
"Leave this to me." Yukimura's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and he naturally took the thing from her hand.
On the other side, Liu came in and took out a teacup from the upper cabinet, "You guys go over first, I'll make some more tea."
Zhao Lan nodded, watching the two people move naturally as if they were in their own kitchen. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she looked at Ren Wang who happened to be walking over, and each of them walked out with a portion of food.
Behind them, Yukimura and Yanagi looked at each other, then followed them out carrying their things.
"Genichirō, wash your hands and eat first. We can fix those things after dinner."
"Okay, I'll be right there." Sanada put down what he was holding, turned and went into the bathroom to wash his hands.
Behind him, Niou suddenly looked at Sanada's back with a strange expression, "This conversation looks so familiar."
The conversation between the two was so natural that they didn't notice anything wrong. Yanagi and Yukimura glanced in the direction of Sanada with their eyes flickering.
After Sanada came out after washing his hands, the two of them shifted their gazes back and forth between Sanada and Arashi without showing any emotion.
Zhao Lan noticed the strange looks from the two people, she looked over and said: "Eat, look at the food on the table, can I be full?"
Sanada glanced at Yukimura and Yanagi, then lowered his head and started eating.
On the table,
Ren Wang looked at the cold-mixed crickets, cold-mixed beef, and wasabi octopus on the table with a look of surprise: "Wow, is this such a rich meal in the morning?"
Coming here today was indeed the right decision. He certainly didn't come to Zhao Lan to tutor her, he had another purpose, but it had to be kept secret for the time being and not let anyone know.
Yukimura smiled and put the Japanese confectionery he brought on the table: "I remember you said you wanted to eat this before."
Zhao Lan opened it and took a look. She was so surprised that all the flavors were her favorite.
She picked up a red bean dessert with glutinous rice skin and said, "I was just thinking about this yesterday. I didn't expect you to bring it today. Thank you, ~"
Zhao Lan prefers the steamed buns with taro and red beans inside. The ones with glutinous rice on the outside are also her favorite flavor.
"With the sandwiches Yanagi brought and Niou's tamagoyaki, there should be enough for us to eat. Everyone, please feel free to eat as much as you can."
Niou picked up a piece of jellyfish skin and put it in his mouth. "This taste... is really good!!"
Sanada ate a piece of porridge and nodded. "By the way, you are about to enter higher school. You have missed a lot of homework this time. We will come to give you extra lessons in the next few days. You must be well prepared and make up for the missed lessons before the exam."
"Yes, I understand. I am really sorry to bother you. The exam is approaching, and I hope it won't affect your studies."
Yukimura smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, our studies will be fine. We will help you with your homework."
"Thank you so much, everyone! You might as well eat here these few days. I will prepare three meals for you."
"That's too troublesome for you."
As they were talking, the phone on her desk rang.
Zhao Lan walked over to take a look and answered, "Atobe."
"You're such an ugly woman. You said you would call me when you got home, but you didn't call me until the evening. Not only that, but the line was always busy when I called. I went to bed and you hadn't finished the call yet..."
Yukimura, Sanada, and Yanagi, who had greatly improved their hearing after practicing, naturally heard the voice on the other end of the phone.
"Ah, I'm so sorry. I was a little late talking to Yuko last night," Zhao Lan interrupted him before he could finish.
Oh no! How could she have forgotten? The day before yesterday, this old man specifically reminded her to contact him when she came back.
