My retirement life in Neon

It's just that Xiu couldn't possibly treat her the same way he treated Chihiro. The difference between the two was not only in status, but also in nature.

However, Lin Zi'an didn't show anything. Instead, he smiled and said to Mai Takaishi: "I haven't seen you for a while."

"I've been studying a lot lately and I won't come out to play." Mai Takaishi turned around and stuck out her tongue mischievously.

The Takaishi family had a legacy in the past. Even if the most basic skills were lost, there was still a lot of knowledge about cultivation that was passed down.

Especially Takaishi Shuichiro has been secretly collecting that knowledge, so he naturally has to pass it all on to Mai Takaishi, the heir.

Since Lin Zi'an left the Takaishi ancestral home, Mai Takaishi has been learning everything about those things at the request of Takaishi Shuichiro.

Until Lin Zi'an arranged this dinner, Takaishi Shuichiro took this opportunity to send Mai Takaishi here.

First, he can get in touch with Lin Zi'an, which can be said to be a hundred benefits without any harm.

In addition, Takaishi Shuichiro could see that after a long period of study, young people like Takaishi Mai could not calm down, so it would be good to take this opportunity to go out for a walk.

"Very good, studying should be easy for you." Xiu answered casually, and then suddenly asked as if he remembered something: "By the way, where is your sister? I heard that she hasn't been to school for a while."

"Sir, don't you know? Momoe~" Takaishi Mai put away her expression just now when he heard him ask this, and then smiled and said: "If she didn't tell you, please allow me to keep it secret for now."

Lin Zian watched Takaishi Mai turn back and lead the way honestly, and immediately felt that there was something wrong.

But just now he suddenly remembered that he was questioned by Tsuji Tomie before, and he had no interest in Momoe Takaishi, the eldest lady, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Zian didn't react much, but Reina became nervous.

Sister? Last name Takaishi?

Reina searched her mind and finally found someone related to this from her memory.

The woman who claimed to be the fiancée of Onii-chan.

Reina immediately became alert and looked at Mai Takaishi's back.

No wonder she seemed so familiar with Onii-chan, what was her relationship with Onii-chan?

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Reina's face changed several times.

Reina followed behind, and Lin Zian didn't pay attention to her, but Michiko saw her daughter's reaction for the first time.

"Ah~" With a sigh, Michiko pulled Reina's hand a little harder to bring her out of her thoughts.

Reina immediately felt the strength in her hand suddenly increase, and then looked at Michiko.

Michiko's face was normal, and she didn't show anything.

Lin Zian knew nothing about what was happening behind him. He was not a pervert, who would pay attention to others all day long.

"Sir, please!" Mai Takaishi took them to the door of a room and opened the shoji door herself.

"This room~" Lin Zian walked in with a smile. Wasn't this the room where Yukino Takemi brought him to, and left him hanging here for half a day?

The decoration here has not changed, it is still the same.

Lin Zian doesn't think that the Takaishi family can't afford better decoration, but maybe they just like this simple style.

"Sit anywhere." Lin Zian found a place and sat cross-legged, looking at the Oda mother and daughter who came in and said.

Reina sat next to him as soon as she came in, and Michiko had to sit on the other side of Reina.

In this kind of place, she has to keep an eye on Reina and can't let her mess around.

"Sir, please order the dishes." Takaishi Mai was obviously ready long ago. She sat directly opposite Lin Zian and took out a menu and pushed it in front of him.

"You guys order whatever you want to eat." Lin Zian didn't take the menu, but pushed the menu to Reina.

He always felt something was wrong, and he didn't feel like eating anymore.

Isn't it something wrong again? Every time I want to eat seafood, there is a problem?

Lin Zian didn't ask Takaishi Mai directly what happened. He didn't want to expose the Oda mother and daughter to these things.

Seeing that Reina was struggling to order anything after looking at the menu for a long time, Lin Zian asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to eat anything?"

"No, I just don't recognize these dishes." Reina returned the menu to him.

"Uh!" Lin Zian didn't pay attention to what was written on the menu just now, but he had said before that he wanted to eat seafood, and if Takaishi Shuichiro wasn't stupid, he would arrange it.

But Reina said she didn't recognize these dishes?

After taking the menu and looking at it, Lin Zian understood what Reina meant.

The menu only had the names and quantities of the seafood, no prices, and no pictures. This menu should be newly made.

Lin Zian smiled knowingly. The chef dared to write like this, which means he can make those dishes with this kind of raw materials.

In other words, if you dare to say it, he will dare to do it.

So confident? This chef seems to have something.

Not knowing what he was thinking, he pushed the menu back to Mai Takaishi and said, "The first question is shrimp. Let him serve the three most delicious ones first."

Since he was so confident, Lin Zian didn't mind being the examiner to test this person's water.

"Yes!" Mai Takaishi smiled and left the room after hearing this.

When Reina saw Mai Takaishi leave, she hurriedly asked, "Onii-chan, how do you know her?"

Lin Zian knew what Reina wanted to ask, so he said, "Because of work contacts, I know her grandfather."

"Then..." Reina was not satisfied with the answer just now. She was about to continue asking, but was interrupted by Lin Zian.

"Okay, just an ordinary acquaintance." Lin Zian put his hand on Reina's head and rubbed it gently, "Let's eat first."

"Oh~" Reina said helplessly. The momentum had been interrupted by Lin Zian, and she couldn't ask anything else.

Michiko next to her covered her mouth and chuckled at Reina's appearance, looking a little gloating.

Not long after, Takaishi Mai came over with a tray.

It can be seen that she often does this kind of thing. Lin Zian probably thinks that Takaishi Shuichiro often gathers friends here, and Takaishi Mai was arranged to be a waiter beside him.

Don't think that being a waiter is shameful. Being a waiter in such a dinner party is something that many people can't even think about. Only the true heir of the Takaishi family is qualified.

It looks like a waiter, but this is Takaishi Shuichiro inheriting his network of contacts to Takaishi Mai. How many people who can sit at Takaishi Shuichiro's table are simple people?

The simplest example is Yukino Takemi.

Takaishi Shuichiro is too senior.

As for Takaishi Momochi, the little princess who was pushed out, Lin Zian doesn't want to know too much.

There are many bad things in such a big family, and even he doesn't want to know deeply, after all, human hearts are not good things.
