As lunchtime approached, Akino and Hirano-kun went to Yokohama's Zhonghua Street to buy traditional medicine and then followed the pharmacist's instructions to prepare it.
Aiko stayed with her grandmother the whole time, and seeing her big brother actually returning, and Hirano-kun also here, Aiko was very happy, hugging Akino's arm while occasionally glancing at the handsome Hirano-kun nearby.
The Hirano Family has good genetics; Hirano-kun is handsome, and his sister Hirano Seiko is pretty, totally lacking the shriveled demeanor sometimes associated with East Ocean people.
"Big brother, I saw your friend."
"Aiko, he's not just my friend, he's also my teacher."
Teacher?
Aiko could hardly believe it.
Ye Qiu was sitting there drinking tea and eating snacks, not expecting the middle-aged woman to stand respectfully beside him.
When Akino and Hirano-kun returned, Akino said, "Mr. Ye, do you want to eat at home or go out?"
"You decide, I want to explore in the afternoon."
