In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 485

"Hua Huo Sauce~Hua Huo Sauce~~"

Before returning home, Uesugi Kai had been buzzing beside Hanamaru Hanabi.

In the supermarket, Hanamaru Hanabi held cauliflower in his hand, glanced at him and said, "Kai-kun, just tell me if you have something, as long as it's not an intimate matter, Hanabi can help you."

Uesugi Kai was stunned for a moment: "My favorability is still -5?"

"Yeah that's right."

"Why hasn't it risen recently?"

"It's only ten o'clock, okay?" Hanamaru Hanabi put the green cauliflower into the supermarket trolley he was pushing.

"Why didn't I feel it, forgot?"

"Don't talk about this, Mr. Zhao, Huahuo gave Mr. Zhao a hug in the morning."

"Only one, how is it enough?"

"Mr. Zhao, you must be content and always happy."

"alright."

Uesugi Kai couldn't help but glanced at her a few more times, his wife was always well-dressed, so delicate that just by looking at her, one could even faintly smell the fragrance of her body.

As if her fragrance was attached to her beauty, the body subconsciously reacted.

Although a bit exaggerated, Kaoru Uesugi does feel this way.

Looking at her somewhat ruddy face, I wanted to reach out and pinch it.

Ugh.

Uesugi Kai was thinking why he didn't take the opportunity to hold it for a while before, and now he has no chance, so he regretted it.

But thinking about it in another way, is it because of this sense of distance that makes the short moment of contact with her so precious?

Because you can't get it, you want it.

Because she got the ability to touch at will, she became accustomed to her existence.

She is too kind to herself and is willing to accept her actions at any time. For her own sake.

Kaoru Uesugi pushed a supermarket trolley and followed her, watching her back as she walked slowly to pick out fresh dishes

At this moment, she felt more like a virtuous wife.

Well, maiden wife.

She treats her so well, if she still feels flat towards her and dislikes her at will, wouldn't she be punished by heaven and earth?

Kaoru Uesugi finally knew why the hero in the movie "Flower Bridge" he watched a while ago was reduced to nothing.

Because he doesn't cherish, he hasn't learned to cherish whether it's his wife or his new love, and he wants to catch both, but in the end it's nothing.

"What did Kai-kun want to ask Hanabi just now?" Hanamaru Hanabi turned around.

"Illustrators of light novels, it's time for the character design and cover to work."

"Oh, this is it."

Kai Uesugi looked at her slanted eyes looking up to the ceiling, a little flustered, "Hanabi, you haven't agreed yet, have you?"

"Hanabi didn't say that." Hanamaru Hanabi turned his gaze and smiled at him.

"That's good." Uesugi Kai was relieved, he thought that Hanabi would reject him with favorability.

In fact, my wife should also draw some illustrations recently. She has been resting for a while, and fans are crying strongly on her Twitter where Mr. Hanamaru has gone.

Because she didn't say anything on Twitter these days when she was away.

I haven't sent a news even when I'm married.

Kaoru Uesugi feels that Hanabi doesn't seem to care much about running her own Twitter.

It seems that not long ago, someone secretly took a picture of her going out. It made her angry.

Hanamaru Hanabi: "When you go home, Kai-kun will tell Hanabi about the character design and other information."

"Ah."

"By the way, what's the heroine's name?"

"Hanabi Chiwa."

After Kai Uesugi said the name, Hanamaru Hanabi tilted his head slightly and winked at him.

"Is it really the heroine created with Huahuo as the prototype?"

"Sure, I will do what I say." Uesugi Kaoru paused for a second, and then smiled at her extremely cute face, "It's a pity, the heroine in the book is not a princess, and I can't satisfy Hua Huo Jiang's princess dream."

"Princess."

Hanamaru Hanabi blushed suddenly, turned around in a panic, and whispered to him with his back:

"T-That's not the case."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true! Kai-kun, stop asking."

Uesugi Kai smiled and looked at her panicked avoidance, and was even more sure that Hanabi-chan really liked the princess status.

In the past, when you called her Your Highness the Princess when you were shy, she would--

What a little girl.

Carrying big and small bags of vegetables home, Kai Uesugi started to help Hanabi make dinner.

Break the cauliflower into small pieces, cut the pork into small pieces, and prepare one each of green onion, ginger, cooking wine, soy sauce, light soy sauce, star anise, and dried chili.

Then, Kai Uesugi, who had prepared everything, watched Hanamaruka heat the oil in the pan.

Today's dish is fried pork with cauliflower, a classic Chinese dish.

When the oil smokes, Hanamaru puts the onion and ginger into it, and the fragrance bursts out.

Then add dried chili and star anise, and fry until fragrant.

At this time, the gas stove is turned to medium heat, and the pork belly is fried until the body turns white and slightly curls.

Then, she put in a spoonful of soy sauce and a spoonful of cooking wine, and continued to stir-fry until the sauce in the pot boiled, and finally poured in the drained cauliflower, mixed the cauliflower and pork together, and stir-fried evenly over high heat.

A spoonful of light soy sauce, a spoonful of sugar, put away the vegetables.

Kai Uesugi watched her put the iron pan in one hand and the shovel in the other to put the stir-fried vegetables on the plate, these actions were already familiar to her.

After that, they simply fried two side dishes, and the two came to the living room together with the plates.

Kai Uesugi picked up sliced ​​meat and cauliflower with chopsticks, and ate them warmly with white rice.

Hanamaru Hanabi looked forward to it: "How is it?"

"Well"

Kaoru Uesugi savored the food carefully, the aroma of the meat, the softness of the vegetables, the smoke from the stir-fry and the slight sweetness blended together in his mouth, and the fragrance overflowed.

"It's fragrant, very fragrant," he said with a smile, "I feel that Chinese stir-fried dishes, Huahuo sauce can be cooked after a few days of learning."

After Uesugi Kai said this, he took another piece of meat and white rice and ate it into his mouth.

"As long as Kai-kun likes it." Hanamaru Hanabi showed a cute smile.

Harm, only a wife can eat this taste.

Kaoru Uesugi thought of the discounted bento from the supermarket that he ate this morning, the cold food and rice, and the cold, smokeless industrial-grade hamburger meat.

How could these things be more delicious than the dinner my wife made for myself.

Can this also be called a meal?

Uesugi Kai no longer feels that this is satisfying his hunger, but enjoying the happy life of having a wife.

Hanamaru Hanabi saw him eating anxiously: "Mr. Kai, eat slowly."

"No, I won't be able to eat it tomorrow morning. I can only eat it for a short time at night. Eat more!"

After eating, Uesugi Kai took the initiative to cut Hu Hanamaru Hanabi's bowl to take to the kitchen.

"Let me wash it, Hua Huo Jiang has worked so hard, let me help."

"OK then."

Hanamaru Hanabi watched him enthusiastically take over the packed bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and smiled sweetly at him.

Then he turned around and took back yesterday's clothes from the drying table.

Waiting for a series of housework, after finishing the work, it will be almost 9 o'clock in the evening.

"Didn't Kai-kun say he wanted to help with the character design?" Hanamaru Hanabi came to the balcony with a computer in his arms.

"Wait a minute!" Kai Uesugi said to her, blocking the computer screen.

"what happened?"

"Wait until I check again."

Hanamaru Hanabi: "Then Hanabi will go back to the bedroom and wait?"

"Okay, you rest for a while, I will call you in half an hour."

"Ah."

Write, check.

Half an hour later, Kai Uesugi finally finished revising the final context of the first volume of the novel.

He slid the document page on the laptop to the top, and looked at the words "Love of Flowers and Fire" written on it.

He propped his face with one hand and stared at the words carefully.

When Huahuo comes over later, will you see what you mean by the title of this book?

He said it was a love letter to her or something, I'm afraid she would feel embarrassed if she knew it.

Hey, forget it, let's call her.

If you know it, you will know it.

Kai Uesugi got up and came to the bedroom door at home, knocked on it, "Hanabi-chan, it's done."

"Ok."

Hanamaru Hanabi agreed, and after a while, she came out holding her computer and digital tablet.

The two came to the balcony of the living room together.

The balcony window was closed, but the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows leading to the living room were opened.

There is no way, because it is too cold, and it is really unbearable not to turn on the hot air conditioner.

- Not working in the bedroom because the night view from the balcony is better.

Hanamaru Hanabi turned on the computer, clicked on the drawing software she usually used, and then asked Uesugi Kai: "So, who will make the first character design first?"

"The hero, Akizuki Katayama." Kai Uesugi spelled out the hero's name in katakana.

Hanamaru Hanabi immediately created a document: "Well, I have a name, what is his personality like?"

"Work hard," Uesugi Kai thought for a while, "He is a person who works hard, but is hit by reality because of too many scruples. He is not used to lying, and he is already 26 years old."

Hanamaru Hanabi: "Body shape?"

Uesugi Kai: "Medium build, not too fat, not too thin."

Hanamaru Hanabi: "Okay, Kai-kun, is there anything else you want?"

Kai Uesugi touched his chin, looked at the Tokyo Tower outside the window and thought for a while: "The appearance is above average, but because of a bad life, his face is rather haggard."

"Kai-kun, Hanabi would like to remind you, it's better for the male lead to be more handsome."

"Huh? Why?"

"The former editor of SG Bunko, Chuanhe, said to Hanabi that because the reader is the protagonist, the protagonist must have a matching appearance with the heroine, and must be excellent. The gentle male protagonist in the past is no longer good. .”

Kai Uesugi: "So it is necessary for the characters to be outstanding in appearance and aggressive? Otherwise, why would the heroine like him?"

"Ah."

"But...it doesn't feel like it fits well with my previous story."

Hanamaru Hanabi: "It's okay, I've read Kai-kun's story Hanabi, it's fine for the male lead to appear more melancholic in front, and it's okay to be outstanding in other aspects."

"alright."

Anyway, it is his wife who paints, Uesugi Kai should listen to his opinion more.

Listening to him, Hanamaru Hanabi put the tablet upright, held the stylus in his hand, and drew a rough outline with just a few strokes.

"is this OK?"

"I'll take a look."

Uesugi Kai looked at it, this hook line, this line!

The feeling of the male protagonist came out all at once, but he didn't look like a decadent male protagonist, but a male protagonist in his heyday.

This style of grasping the wrist and looking down, the slight curl of the hair, the sense of movement is ready to come out.

"Doesn't it feel a little too handsome?"

Hanamaru Hanabi pondered for a while: "Well, Hanabi thinks it's good."

As she spoke, she moved a few more strokes on the details of the actor's movements and expressions.

Eyes, posture, not the handsome and handsome of Danmei, but handsome and clean for men.

"."

Okay, Uesugi Kai completely shut up.

Handsome is handsome, this male coach makes men and women speechless.

"That's the rough version, what do you think, Kai-kun?"

"can."

Hanamaru Hanabi clicked Save, and then created a new document, "Is the heroine next?"

Uesugi Kai nodded: "Yes, Hanabi Chiwa."

"Hanabi Chiwa." She always felt that the name sounded a little weird to herself, so she couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked him, "Kai-kun, what's the name of this novel?"

"Love of Flowers and Fire"

"Your Majesty."

"Don't worry," Uesugi explained, "Others will only think it's fireworks or something, not you."

"But it's named like this. Kai-kun's light novel is not a light novel at all."

"Hey, Hana-chan, the editor of Kadokawa Club said that this name is okay. He said that my light novel is not an ordinary light novel, like "I want to eat your pancreas". , even with such a strange name, isn’t it still popular?”

Hanamaru Hanabi took some time to accept: "Okay. Then. What is Hanabi Chiwa's character design like?"

"She is a female employee of a coffee shop. She has short hair, purple pupils, only likes to wear skirts, and also likes sharks. What are you interrupting me for?"

"Your Majesty."

Uesugi Kai smiled indifferently: "It's said that it was based on you."

Hanamaru Hanabi pouted angrily: "But, this is completely Hanabi himself."

"do not like?"

"Um"

"Then I'll change her favorite hobbies a little bit, and I can change everything else, but the setting of short hair and purple pupils cannot be changed, can I?" Uesugi Kai tried to get her to agree.

"Barely. That's it"

"Okay, let's make a happy decision like this."

Next, Uesugi Kai slowly said some details, and let Hanabi slowly modify it according to the impression.

Hanabi's artistry is excellent, and even a rough sketch can make people see her overall style clearly.

In the end, the two finalized a cover art for the first volume of the novel together. It was a picture of Hanabi Chiwa jumping in the air, showing scissors hands and smiling happily to the camera.

The body is flying, wearing a high school girl's sailor suit, the gap between the sailor suit and the pleated skirt just reveals the belly button, and the smile is very sunny.

"Is this the general action?"

"Ah."

After the modification, Hanamaru Hanabi nodded.

Kaoru Uesugi likes this vigorous movement, and this is still a draft. If it is officially completed, with Hanamaru Hanabi's control over the colors, she can even make this painting full of vitality.

Uesugi Kai couldn't help but hugged Hanamaru Hanabi's neck beside him: "Honey, you are too kind to me."

"Kai, Kai-kun." Hanamaru Hanabi tried his best to push him away, "Let go!"

"Don't let it go, I won't let it go."

"Mr. Kai, don't be childish."
