"It's because Xiaohui doesn't like to go out and play, otherwise maybe you and Xiaoxin could be childhood sweethearts now."

Mrs. Kato joked from the side, slightly raising the corners of her mouth with a teasing expression on her face.

"Mom, what...what are you talking about?"

Kato Megumi's cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes revealed shyness, and she spoke in a low voice.

Kato Megumi thought, if she and Shin-chan were childhood sweethearts, would they be like in the novel, going to the same high school, becoming a couple, and even getting married?

Kato Megumi lowered her head slightly, with a hint of longing and shyness in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

"Xiao Xin, how is your mother doing lately?"

Mrs. Kato asked about Misae's recent situation with concern.

Recently, these housewives have been busy with their own things and haven't had afternoon tea and chatted together for a long time.

Mrs. Kato sighed, with a hint of regret in her eyes.

"My mother is alive and well." Xiaoxin answered casually with a nonchalant look on his face.

"Really? That's good."

Mrs. Kato looked embarrassed and shook her head slightly. It seemed that for Shin-chan, as long as he wasn't dead, it wasn't a big deal.

"Oh, I almost forgot. This is the gift my mother asked me to bring to you. Please take Ah Hui to school."

As Shin-chan spoke, he took out some high-end ham.

"Xiao Xin, I should ask Hui to take you to school. I think you said it the other way around."

Mrs. Kato raised the corners of her mouth and a smile appeared on her face.

"That's what they say. Well, don't stand here anymore. Come in and find a place to sit down, drink some tea and then talk."

"It should be Mrs. Kato who said this. We should say 'sorry for disturbing you'. Shin-chan really hasn't changed at all." Masao shook his head with a helpless look on his face.

"Okay, now it's time for the young people to spend time together."

Shin-chan took Kato Megumi's hand and walked straight into the house, pretending to close the door.

"Xiao Xin, that's too much. He is also a young man, he just looks a little more mature."

Zhengnan was holding on to the door, trying to prevent it from closing. He looked aggrieved and said with a sad face.

"Are you going to lock me out too? I have meat stewing in the pot."

Mrs. Kato pointed at herself with a helpless look on her face, as if to say, "Don't forget me."

Kato Megumi looked at the scene in front of her and didn't expect that even her usually steady mother was being led by Shin-chan.

The corners of Kato Megumi's mouth rose slightly, she lowered her head slightly, a few strands of hair fell on her cheeks, she tried hard to restrain her laughter, but her shoulders trembled slightly involuntarily.

When everyone entered the living room, Zheng Nan frowned slightly, with a nervous look on his face, and his hands and feet were placed uncomfortably. Xiao Xin, on the other hand, had a relaxed look on his face and sat casually on the sofa.

"Zhengnan, why are you so sad so early in the morning? Was your girlfriend dumped again?"

Shin-chan raised an eyebrow, a curious look on his face.

"That's not the case! My expression is normal."

Zhengnan quickly retorted, with a helpless look on his face and speechless eyes.

"By the way, Shin-chan. I watched the morning news today. I didn't expect you to be so capable that you could make the congressman confess in person."

Zhengnan opened his eyes wide and an expression of admiration appeared on his face.

"I've seen it too. Shin-chan is really amazing."

Kato Megumi nodded slightly, an expression of admiration on her face, and agreed softly.

"Over the years, Shin-chan's experiences have always been legendary, really like the protagonist in a comic book." Zhengnan said with envy.

Masao is one of the few people who knows part of Shin-chan's story. After all, the five of them in the Kasukabe Defense Team have protected the world several times. Masao's face showed a look of reminiscence.

As they grew older, they drifted away from Shin-chan, and their lives gradually became ordinary. Masao lowered his head slightly, looking a little lonely.

"What's wrong with Zhengnan? Why are you so listless? Was your girlfriend dumped again?"

Seeing him like this, Xiaoxin said comfortingly.

"Xiao Xin, why do you always criticize me? Do I really have to be dumped by my girlfriend?"

Zhengnan frowned slightly, an angry look on his face.

"Isn't that right?" Xiao Xin showed a puzzled look on his face.

"Yes, I'm such a useless man." Zhengnan burst into tears instantly.

"Don't quarrel, don't quarrel."

Kato Megumi looked a little flustered and gently advised.

"Fight? This isn't a fight. If this is considered a fight, I'll be pissed to death sooner or later next to Shin-chan." Masao sighed, a helpless look on his face.

"Kato Megumi is so gentle. I really envy Shin-chan's luck with women, which is as good as ever." Masao said with an envious look on his face.

"Is Shin-chan popular with girls?"

Kato Megumi asked softly from the side, she didn't know why she suddenly cared about this issue.

"Yes, Shin-chan has had many suitors since kindergarten, like Ai, Peng, Miho..." Masao said excitedly.

Zhengnan has always been like this, seeing Xiaoxin receive a love letter makes him happier than when he himself receives one. Zhengnan slightly raised the corners of his mouth, with an excited look on his face.

"is it?"

Kato Megumi whispered softly, her eyes dimmed instantly, revealing a deep sense of loneliness. She bit her lips lightly with her pearly teeth, and her soft lips were slightly bitten, as if she was suppressing the complex emotions in her heart.

Then, her head slowly lowered as if pulled by an invisible force, and a few strands of hair fell down, covering half of her face.

"Jeongnam, that's why you're so useless."

Shin-chan said helplessly as he looked at Masao and started talking about the past again.
