All Chapters of Do You Love Me, Uncle?: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

"Do you like it?" Kenji asked, slightly worried, because Akiko had been staring silently at the house in front of them ever since they got out of the car.But after walking around the car and seeing Akiko’s face, Kenji realized she wasn’t being quiet—she was simply too amazed. Her eyes sparkled with delight.The house in front of them wasn’t particularly grand, but it had a classic style that looked cozy. It was entirely made of wood and had a raised foundation, like Kenji’s old house. But in terms of size and shape, it was still far smaller than Kenji’s previous home.But Akiko didn’t think of that. What she remembered was the sense of comfort when she saw a house with a similar style."Did you buy this?"Akiko inquired, but she couldn't quite believe Kenji had managed it. They had fled so suddenly. It was impossible to prepare a house in such a short time. Even with plenty of money, purchasing a house cou

“Akiko-chan!”A voice called from outside, and Akiko immediately put down her knife. She had been cleaning fish to cook for dinner later.“Ha–i!” Akiko responded as she walked outside, seeing Miura waiting at the door, carrying a basket full of produce.“I wanted to share some of my harvest with you all. I just picked it earlier today," Miura said, lifting the basket and showing it to Akiko with a cheerful face.“Oh my, Miura-san. This is a lot. I... I can’t possibly accept this for free.”The basket was filled with two bundles of green mustard greens, more than five fresh carrots still covered in red soil, corn in husks, and vibrant red tomatoes. There was a lot.“Eeee… It’s just from my garden behind the house. I was cleaning it up and remembered you need to eat lots of healthy food. It’s really healthy, and I’m sure you’ll recover quickly,” Mi

Kyoko stared at Ryu—who had just stepped out of his car—from behind the glass wall and scoffed. Ryu was definitely walking toward the café where she was waiting, but his appearance was too flashy.Ryu had been the one who said he wanted their meeting to avoid drawing attention, yet just his arrival was enough to catch people's eyes.Kyoko rarely admitted that three-dimensional beings were handsome, but after meeting Ryu multiple times, she knew he was indeed handsome. He exuded a warm aura and seemed approachable.No wonder Misa was willing to lead the unofficial Ryusuke Sato fan club. Many female employees were clearly infatuated with him.But because of his attractive looks, it was obvious that their secret meetings would be difficult. He was too noticeable—and too friendly.Kyoko scoffed again when Ryu smiled at a woman who was staring at him. Charming, as always. The woman looked shy but then boldly approac

Akiko opened the car window, letting the breeze tousle her hair and touch her face. The wind was incredibly fresh, likely with zero pollution. Akiko had no doubts about its quality and inhaled deeply.Even when they were almost in Shiretoko city, the air still felt fresh. The medium-sized city to the north of Utoro village wasn't overly crowded, but it clearly showed more signs of life than Utoro.And this city was the closest large town that could be easily reached from Utoro. But it would still take at least three hours.“This is amazing!” Akiko expressed a bit of the enthusiasm that had been bubbling inside her as she looked around. It was a far cry from the bustle of Karuizawa—the only city she remembered—but there was still plenty to see.“A waterfall!” Akiko pointed to the rush of water cascading down a small hillside beside them.“Yes,” Kenji, who was driving, responded briefly with a smile. He

"Stand here," Miura guided Akiko, whose body was still wet.Eventually, someone had told Akiko to bathe to cleanse herself, and now she stood wearing only her undergarments, ready to put on the shiromuku.The kimono looked so pristine that Akiko was afraid she would soil it if she touched it. The fabric was not plain white; various symbols were embroidered on its surface."Cranes, cherry blossoms, orchids," Akiko named a few familiar motifs she recognized on the kimono. All were embroidered in the same white color as the base fabric, camouflaging the patterns when viewed from afar."These are objects believed to bring luck and good fortune," Miura said, lifting Akiko's arms up to make it easier to fasten the obi—the fabric belt that tied the kimono around her waist."Kenji's request arrived quite unexpectedly, so we had to take whatever shiromuku we could find. Fortunately, Ono-san has a friend who owns a kimono shop in the city, and he manag
