Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 199 A Battle of Attrition! It's my turn, my turn! It's my turn to fight Kitahara!

The next day.

When the alarm clock on the bedside table struck 6:30, Kitahara Natsuhiro opened his eyes precisely on time.

His sleepy eyes stared at the ceiling, but after a few seconds they gradually regained their focus and became more lively.

He glanced at the beauties clinging to him like octopuses on either side and couldn't help but sigh, "A land of gentle pleasures, a tomb for heroes; from now on, even emperors will neglect their morning court."

"The people from my hometown were right."

If he could, he didn't want to go to work today; he just wanted to stay home.

After all, with two beautiful women serving you at home, who would want to go to work?

But not going to work is not an option. Of course, it's not that he's short of money, but that Miyano Akemi and Ai can't afford it.

The three fought fiercely until three or four o'clock in the morning before the battle ended.

Among them, Akemi Miyano took the brunt of the attack, while Ai, because it was her first time, did not receive special care from Natsuhiro Kitahara and escaped unscathed.

Even so, Ai was exhausted from the battle.

After all, she was just a researcher and didn't really have much physical strength.

But Akemi Miyano is different. She has received training from an organization and also practices physical exercises such as yoga.

Physical strength, flexibility, and endurance are all things that Ai Haibara cannot compare to.

So Akemi Miyano was full, or rather, stuffed.

However, Ai had eaten her fill, but due to exhaustion, she withdrew from the battle early on.

"Ugh, I really don't want to get out of bed."

Kitahara Natsuhiro looked at the ceiling, then turned to look at Miyano Akemi and Ai beside him.

If he could, he would be willing to remain immersed in this gentle embrace forever.

Going to work? What a load of crap!

But he needs to be more restrained; Miyano Akemi and Ai need to rest.

so.
Kitahara Natsuyu used his superpowers to control his body and flew out from inside without alerting the two people and by lifting the blanket.

When he came out, Ai and Akemi Miyano were still fast asleep, with traces of tears still remaining in the corners of their eyes.

These are all traces of last night's battle.

At this moment, Kitahara Natsuhiro quietly left the room with both feet on the floor and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Wow.
He turned on the shower, applied shower gel, and began to take a shower.

A short while later, Akemi Miyano, who was still fast asleep, twitched her eyelids and then slowly opened her eyes.

When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was her younger sister, Ai's sleeping face.

She looked at Ai's face, a genuine smile on her face, and gently stroked it: "Good morning, Ai."

"From now on, my sister and I can be together forever."

In the past, she would have called her younger sister Shiho, but now that Shiho has broken free from the black organization, it would be inappropriate to continue calling her Shiho.

So she readily agreed and called her sister Ai, or Haibara Ai.

The name was chosen by Kitahara Natsuhiro, and Ai liked it very much; she also thought it was great.

"By the way, is Xia Yu already up?"

At this moment, Akemi Miyano finally remembered that there should be another person in this bed, and that was Natsuhiro Kitahara.

Perhaps it's because I just woke up and my mind isn't fully awake yet, so I forgot for the time being.

But she remembers now, including what happened last night.

Just thinking about this made Akemi Miyano's face flush, and her body even reacted, feeling a tingling sensation.

It felt as if the afterglow of yesterday still lingered in my body.

"Xia Yu."

Akemi Miyano called out softly, then tucked half her head under the covers, leaving only her eyes covered with a layer of mist.

Suddenly, she looked towards the door, as if she had heard something.

"Is Xia Yu taking a bath? I'll go and help him."

As Kitahara Natsuhiro's maid, it was only natural for her to do these things, and Ai should have been invited to do them as well.

But Ai's body is too weak to withstand the attack, and she has not yet woken up.

Therefore, Akemi Miyano had no choice but to go alone.

She lifted a corner of the blanket, trying to get up, but as soon as she got up a little, she found that her body was a little sore and weak, and she had no strength at all. Her legs felt like cotton, and she couldn't lift them up at all.

"I can't get up, I can't get up at all."

"It's all Xia Yu's fault. I still haven't recovered." Miyano Akemi glanced at Ai again and said softly, "It's a good thing I'm here. If Ai were alone, I don't know what would have happened to her."

Then, she looked towards the door and said, "I'm sorry, Xia Yu, I can't help you today."

She had no strength left in her body; her legs felt like cotton, weak and powerless. Even if she wanted to help Kitahara Natsuhiro, she didn't have the strength.

So, she decided to go back to sleep.

Because she is really tired right now, her upper and lower eyelids have started to droop.

A short while later, Akemi Miyano fell asleep again.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped shortly after she fell asleep.

Wearing a bath towel and revealing his muscular upper body, Kitahara Natsuhiro walked out of the bathroom, drying his hair as he looked into the room.

"She's already awake, but she's fallen asleep again."

A person's breathing rate and heart rate are different when they are awake and when they are asleep, so he knew this when Miyano Akemi woke up, and even heard some of her mutterings.

"You two should get some rest. Don't worry about me."

"I'm not some pampered young master who never lifts a finger."

Kitahara Natsuyu smiled, and the will-o'-the-wisp instantly burst into flames on his body.

The hair, which was still wet, dried instantly, and even the water droplets on the skin evaporated.

Being half a ghost is that convenient.

After evaporating the water droplets from his body, Kitahara Natsuyu re-entered the room, took out a set of sportswear from the closet, put it on, and looked at Miyano Akemi and Ai on the bed, smiling: "I'm going out, Ai, Akemi."

Immediately, he slowly left the room, gently closed the door, left home, and went to work.

However, since there were people at home, Kitahara Natsuhiro didn't make breakfast at home. Instead, he went to a convenience store near his apartment and bought a few sandwiches and a carton of milk. That was his breakfast for the day.

He also sent text messages to Yukiko and Akiko Yonehara while having breakfast.

He hadn't forgotten that Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko had slept together yesterday.

He originally wanted to join, but was rejected by Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko together.

In the end, I didn't play Dou Dizhu with the two of them, but instead played Dou Dizhu all night with Ai and Miyano Akemi.

It's truly wonderful!

Buzz buzz.
Not long after the text message was sent, Akiko Yonehara sent another text message.

【Get up! We're making breakfast now, we'll be off to work in a bit. Are you up yet?】 Akiko Yonehara.

Buzz buzz.
At that moment, Yukiko's text message arrived.

[I'm up. I'm making breakfast with Akiko. Was that the text message you sent to Akiko just now?] Yukiko.

Looking at the text messages on his phone, Kitahara Natsuyu took a bite of his sandwich and muttered, "They've already started calling him Akiko. Looks like your relationship has progressed rapidly tonight."

"Damn it, why won't I be involved?"

If she had participated in Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko's late-night conversation, there might not have been the maid incident involving Akemi Miyano and Ai Haibara.

But that's okay, we can postpone it.

And he's quite curious now about what Yukiko and Akiko Yonehara talked about last night.

So he started typing and replied to two identical text messages.

What did you talk about last night? Would you mind telling me?

Click to send.

Soon.

Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko, who were in the kitchen, received a text message from Natsuhiro Kitahara. After seeing the message, they smiled at each other and sent the same message at the same time.

This is a secret!

Kitahara Natsuyu looked at the text message on his phone and sighed, "Sigh, women just like to act mysterious. If they don't want to say, they don't have to."

"I shouldn't have asked." He was now regretting it; he shouldn't have asked what the two of them had talked about last night.

Asking now has piqued my curiosity.

Although it wasn't intentional, Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko unintentionally became riddle solvers.

"Never mind, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'm going to work."

Kitahara Natsuhiro put away his phone, quickly finished his sandwich, and then strode towards the school.

the other side.

Akiko Yonehara and Yukiko also brought breakfast to the table at this time.

Two bowls of beef noodles and one serving of pickled radish.

The noodles were bought at a convenience store, and the beef was, of course, braised beef made by Kitahara Natsuhiro himself.

When Yukiko tasted the first bite of beef, she felt it was a little sour.

Of course, it's not because the beef is sour. The beef is not only not sour, but it's also very delicious, with a perfect balance of saltiness and a hint of spiciness, making it ideal for breakfast right after waking up in the morning.

Next, she tasted the pickled radish. It was sour and a little spicy, but it suited Yukiko's taste perfectly.

Looking at the mouthwatering food, Yukiko felt surprisingly full.

"Did Xia Yu make all of these for you?" Yukiko turned to Akiko Yonehara and asked.

Upon hearing this, Akiko Yonehara looked up at her, noticed something on her face, and then a sly glint flashed in her eyes: "Yes, Xia Yu made all of this for me."

"And Xia Yu spends the night here every weekend."

Damn it, who asked you that?!
Moreover, Xia Yu also stayed overnight at my place; everyone is starting from the same point.

In reality, Yukiko knew that she and Akiko Yonehara were not even on the same starting line.

Age and such are irrelevant; just the fact that Akiko Yonehara has a home makes her far better off than her, because she is currently living in a suite at the Beika Hotel and doesn't have her own home at all.

As for the Kudo family home in Beika-cho 2-chome, that's not her home, but the home of Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Shinichi. She, Fujimine Yukiko, is just an outsider.

No, I need to have my own home now. If Xia Yu comes to stay at your place on weekends, then he has to come to stay at mine on weekdays.

But she had no money.

Although I've worked in the restaurant for quite some time, I haven't saved much money.

Sometimes when she had time off, she would go shopping with Chris and buy some things. To thank Chris, she would treat her to a meal.

So her work during this period didn't allow her to save any money; she was still penniless, just like before.

Now she knows she can't continue like this.

She had to find a way to turn this situation around; women couldn't stay poor forever, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to snag a man.

First and foremost, you need to have your own home.

Having made up my mind, the first step to becoming independent and self-reliant was to rent a house, and then Xia Yu took me there.

"Take over" means exactly what it says: from Monday to Thursday, Kitahara Natsuhiro will be brought over, and from Friday to the weekend, it will be Yonehara Akiko's time.

Although she was a woman, she was not very greedy.

Because she knew that if she was greedy, she wouldn't be able to get up the next day, her body would feel sore and weak, she would have no strength at all, and she would feel like a ball of cotton.

Of course, she was quite comfortable before the change occurred.

So, excessive drinking really does lead to trouble!

"So that's how it is!!!" Yukiko smiled insincerely, but was very angry inside.

Seeing Yukiko's expression, Akiko Yonehara decided not to continue provoking her, as doing so could easily lead to problems.

Moreover, as the first wife, she should be tolerant and not petty or jealous!
"If you like some too, Fumiyo-nee, you can take some. I still have quite a few here; one person can't eat that much." Akiko Yonehara smiled slightly.

“Okay,” Yukiko agreed immediately.

Upon hearing this, Akiko Yonehara's smile froze, becoming somewhat unnatural.

Hey, I was just being polite, why did you agree?
My beef, my pickled radish—these are all gifts of love from Xia Yu. Why are you forcibly taking them away?

You despicable woman.

But since things had already come to this point, and she had already said what she wanted to say, she naturally couldn't take it back, after all, she also cared about her reputation.

So, it's given! It's given!
“Then, Sister Wendai, you can pretend to be a bit like that later!” Akiko Yonehara said.

"Then thank you, Akiko-chan." Yukiko smiled happily.

Hmph, you pretending to be generous. When I get back, I'll eat your beef and your pickled radishes to my heart's content, and make you suffer.

And this could be considered a kind of NTR (Netorare)!

"You're welcome, you're welcome!"

Akiko Yonehara gave a slightly fake smile.

They really are just fake besties.

Didan Primary School.

After arriving at the school, Kitahara Natsuhiro, as usual, began to patrol each classroom, then quietly appeared at the window near the corridor and looked inside.

In the past, seeing Kitahara Natsuhiro suddenly appear by the window would have given them a fright, but now they wouldn't, because they've gotten used to it.

There is a physical education teacher at the school who is known as the Ghost.

It was thanks to Kitahara Natsuhiro that the learning environment at Teitan Elementary School improved significantly.

However, this also made Kitahara Natsuhiro less fun.

After all, Gastly is meant to scare people! Now that the students aren't scared anymore, the fun of patrolling is a little bit less.

Ding-ling-ling
Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

Just as the bell rang, Kitahara Natsuyu happened to be patrolling his own class, Class 1-B.

At the same time, the teacher inside the classroom announced the end of get out of class, picked up the textbook, and walked out, showing no intention of extending the class.

The moment he stepped down from the podium, the entire classroom erupted in noise. The students were completely liberated, but the liberation was limited to ten minutes.

After encountering Kitahara Natsuhiro at the door, he smiled and nodded, then walked towards the office.

Kitahara Natsuhiro stood by the window and looked inside.

When he looked into the classroom, the students inside saw Kitahara Natsuyu and immediately became well-behaved.

However, there is one person who is not so well-behaved, and that is Conan.

Conan looked at him with a complicated expression, then got up, went outside, and stood in front of Kitahara Natsuhiro.

"Teacher Kitahara, I have something I want to talk to you about," Conan said, looking up.

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu nodded: "Okay, come with me."

Conan nodded and followed Kitahara Natsuhiro until they arrived at a secluded place.

As Conan and Kitahara Natsumi were leaving, Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko also ran out of the classroom and saw the two leaving.

"What does Conan want with Kitahara-sensei? Is he asking him to treat him to dinner?" Genta exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko rolled their eyes at Genta and said in unison, "Conan isn't that kind of person."

"He must have something on his mind, that's why he contacted the teacher."

"Yes, that's it."

at the same time.

Kitahara Natsuhiro and Conan arrived at the corner of the stairs. There were few people there, making it a good place to talk.

"Conan, is there anything else you want to tell me?"

This time, Kitahara Natsuhiro did not refer to himself as a teacher, so he now treats Conan as his son.

It's normal for a father to answer his son's question.

However, Conan was unaware of this.

Conan took a deep breath and said with a serious expression, "What I want to say is, if you bully my mother, then I will definitely not let you get away with it."

“My mother can be a bit reckless at times and seems a little silly, but she’s a good woman and a good mother.”

"So my mother asked you for help, Kitahara-sensei."

After saying that, Conan bowed deeply and ran away in a flash before Kitahara Natsuhiro could say anything.

Kitahara Natsuhiro watched Conan's 'escape' and chuckled to himself.

"I don't need a little kid like you who's just turned 18 to teach me this kind of thing."

"I, Kitahara Natsuyu, will never let my woman down!"
