Tokyo landlord: why is the panties of the lady next door in my house?!

Chapter 216 Lady Otome: I am very satisfied with Haruka's performance today!

If your daughter, still school-aged, brings home a boyfriend, how would you feel?

Haruka Yuzan didn't know, but... looking at the expression of the dignified man in front of him, he could guess a little. He asked himself if the roles were reversed, he might have already started considering where in Tokyo Bay to "sleep with the fishes."

Green hills, clear waters, a torii-styled garden architecture stands erect in the middle of the lake.

A few people gathered around a stone table, seated in the courtyard.

Light yellow tea poured from the spout of the pot, held by slender, delicate hands. A mature and composed beautiful woman kneeled at one side, her kimono, worn on her body, had an unspoken elegance and nobility.

"Mr. Haruka, please enjoy the tea,"

"Thank you, Lady Otome,"

Haruka Yuzan took the teacup from Lady Otome's hand, the tea's ripples reflecting the gentle and handsome features of his face, as well as Otome Mizuko sweetly latching onto Haruka's arm beside him.

"Relax, feel at home here,"

Lady Otome revealed a warm and caring smile, a motherly radiance slowly emanating from her, deeply moving everyone present.

"You chat, I'll make tea,"

That gentle demeanor made it hard to associate her with the decisive and ruthless Miss Otome's mother.

If one said Mizuko's personality didn't inherit from Lady Otome... then whom did she take after?

Haruka Yuzan sipped the tea, his eyes inevitably glancing at the robust man sitting opposite him.

The simple striped kimono hung loosely on him. He sat upright, his muscles well-defined and... that countenance that remained tightly closed.

From the moment they arrived up until now, Otome Toyama hadn't said a word. However, even though he appeared to be meditating, the pressure he gave off was still not to be underestimated.

It seemed... as if he was waiting for them to initiate the conversation?

Otome Mizuko harrumphed and symbolically loosened her grip by two millimeters, that was the heiress' bottom line.

Lady Otome shook her head somewhat helplessly at this. Her impression of Mr. Haruka was quite good; however, with the father right there, shouldn't she show some restraint?

Moreover, not long ago the two had argued over Haruka Yuzan, wasn't this intentionally provoking trouble?

With a soft sigh, Lady Otome felt more helpless towards the father-daughter duo, both with strikingly similar temperaments.

"Ahem,"

At this moment, Otome Toyama, who had been keeping his eyes shut, couldn't bear it any longer and slowly began to speak,

"Mizuko, you need to be mindful of your image! How can the future helmsman of the Otome family reveal such a disposition? How will you command respect?!"

As he spoke, his eyes slowly opened, the sharp gaze made one shiver involuntarily.

Without a word, it would've been fine, but once he spoke, those two millimeters the young lady had loosened were immediately taken back.

"I like Haruka, why can't it be like this? Today is about meeting you, and since we have, if there's nothing else, we'll be leaving,"

She said, actually ready to get up and leave right away.

Otome Toyama had not expected his daughter would actually say such a thing.

On normal days, although they rarely communicated, for the most part, Otome Mizuko was always a polite and sensible perfect heiress.

But... as soon as it was about Haruka Yuzan, his once calm and astute daughter would completely abandon that rationality, becoming impulsive and irritable.

She had even had a big argument with him not long ago!!

His only heir, seemingly perfect in all ways, but why was there such a huge flaw when it came to matters like these!
