Chapter 136: Chapter 116: The Madam Who Got Stuck in the Washing Machine (Seeking Monthly Pass)
The dull sunlight slanted in from the window outside,
On the streets of the community, the faces of students returning home from school were brimming with a longing for life.
Just coming from club activities, they all bore a sense of relaxed pleasure, chatting about the latest game cards and anime releases.
"Click."
Haruka Yuzan turned on the living room lights,
As dusk faded away, the villa suddenly brightened up.
"Let's hurry and have dinner,"
Reiko Onodera said, ladling soup for everyone, with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah!" Misaki Saki, that diligent girl, scampered over to help with the soup again,"Sister Reiko, let me help you!"
"Misaki is such a good girl." Seeing the little girl's behavior, Reiko Onodera couldn't help but think of her own daughter.
"Hehe, it's only what I should do." Perhaps her lips had rested enough, Misaki Saki had once again turned back into that sweet little girl.
----But only in front of Reiko Onodera and Chiba Shimizu.

Tonight's dinner was also sumptuous, with prawns, fish, and salad.
Lately, Misaki Saki would even order fresh ingredients online, deciding what she wanted to eat after waking up each day, and have it delivered from the convenience store to her home that very day.
It was just that in the Island Country, labor costs were high, and she had to spend quite a bit more than usual, but for Misaki Saki, the little wealthy girl, it was worth every penny as long as she didn't have to go out.
Indeed, a doujinshi artist's wallet is always well-padded.
Now it was just a matter of waiting for her new work to be published, then she could lie back and count her money.
The original author could only take seventy percent, while simply shooting a video would earn her eighty percent.
As for making videos... at first, there might have been some resistance, but after some time, it became a habit that was hard to refuse.
Damn it, she was slowly turning into the person she despised the most! Haruka Yuzan!
Hating her current self.
"What are you staring at me for... not eating?"
The young voice interrupted the boy's thoughts. Looking up, Misaki Saki was biting her chopsticks and staring at him, her cute little face filled with confusion and bewilderment.
While Haruka was in a daze, the suspicion in those beautiful eyes slowly began to shift towards the comical and sly,
If there weren't others around, that girl would surely say something sleazy again.
Such a waste to have a brain filled mostly with dross.
"I was just thinking, when can we see the great artist Misaki's work?"
Seizing the moment before the girl turned completely into an emoji, Haruka Yuzan quickly spoke up to interrupt her casting.
"Eh?"
Hearing the boy's words, Misaki Saki obviously froze for a moment, and her eyes, which were turning into blunt crescent moons, slowly returned to normal.
Blinking her confused big eyes,
She wasn't expecting that at all, she had thought Haruka Yuzan was reminiscing about the scene in the kitchen just now!
Was it her own wishful thinking?
"Yeah, Misaki, when are you going to publish your manga?" Reiko Onodera sipped her glutinous rice soup, her gaze on the girl full of envy and admiration.
The girl's profession was no longer a secret, and to madam, a manga artist felt like an unreachable artist from everyday life.
To be so young and able to publish her own work and make money impressed Reiko Onodera greatly.
Despite not knowing what kind of manga the girl drew...
"Eh!"
Coming back to her senses and realizing that everyone's attention was on her, Misaki Saki couldn't help but boast,
"Hehe! I've decided that I'll publish my work in two weeks!!!"
Standing up, her little head tilted back so you couldn't see her expression, her tiny body quivering with pride, she appeared supremely complacent,
"Then, everyone must address me as 'Great Artist Misaki'!!!"
Hearing the girl's words, Haruka Yuzan's eyes lit up, didn't that mean in two weeks he could live a life of counting money while lying down?
If that was the case, the follow-up funding issue for the coffee shop would also be alleviated…
"Misaki, you're amazing, we'll definitely support you then."
Reiko Onodera sincerely felt happy for the girl, but one sentence made Misaki Saki, who had been quite smug, deflate all at once.
"Ah?"
The boastful expression suddenly froze, those bright eyes turning into bean eyes, and she seemed to lose her spirit, extending her little hand, pointing at herself and then at madam, as if even the atmosphere behind her turned gray.
"Support... my work?"
"Yes, what's wrong? I'll definitely buy it, however many copies you publish, I'll buy them all…" Reiko Onodera said with a smile.
Even Chiba Shimizu gently nodded, though the young lady doesn't read manga, she'd still buy some to show support.
"Actually, I feel that, there's no need for everyone to waste money, my drawings aren't that good, there's no need to spend that money." Misaki Saki suddenly became very humble, scratching her head as she went from arrogant to modest, subtly sliding back into her chair, laughing while saying,
"And also, I only get to keep seventy percent, the remaining thirty percent goes to the publisher, you guys don't usually read manga, so there's no need to waste money, right, no need to waste, haha…"
Madam's comment nearly made Misaki Saki's acting facade slip, her doujinshi being seen by friends?!
