Since it was almost dinner time, Qingnobo originally wanted to keep Arima at their house for dinner, but Arima said that he still had some official business that he had to go home to deal with quickly, so he declined Qingnobo's dinner date.

Seeing that Arima was about to leave, Saito, who had been staying in the living room just now, also came to the door and saw Arima off with Aoto.

"Saito, Tachibana-kun, I'll leave it to you."

The unsmiling Saito did not respond to Arima's words.

He just nodded slightly.

Wow...

Qingto watched Arima open the door. After seeing Arima's figure disappear from his sight, he turned his head and looked at Saito, who was standing beside him and walking side by side with him.

Looking at this new member of the family who would live and eat with him and Kubei from today on, Aoto scratched the hair on the back of his head, then cleared his throat, turned around, and faced Saito

, Zhengse said:

"You should have heard about me and my name from Lord Arima, right?"

"Although you must already know who I am. But let me formally introduce myself."

"My name is Tachibana Qingden. From today on, I will ask for your attention."

After saying that, Qingden bowed slightly to Saito.

"...Please give me more advice." Saito turned to Aoto, half-closed his eyes, and returned Aoto's bow.

After formally introducing himself to his aloof bodyguard, Qingden straightened up and looked towards the kitchen, where the faint aroma of food was now wafting out.

"It's still a while before dinner is ready..."

"Saito, before dinner is ready, can you please do one thing with me?"

"……Please say."

"I have recently practiced a new rope-catching technique." Qingdeng slowly walked to a locker in the living room and took out a hemp rope from it, "I have been worried about not finding a suitable partner to practice with recently.

, can you please be my sparring partner?"

After saying that, Qingdeng tightened the hemp rope in his hands with both hands, making a crisp "pop" sound.
