I endured the humiliation and humiliation while being besieged by the ghost story elder sister.

"You almost burned the kitchen down, didn't you?"

He knew that Fanxia, ​​who was used to never lifting a finger, would definitely mess up the cooking. It seemed that he would have to find some time to teach her properly.

Just as he was thinking this, Sister Fanxia brought the tablet to him and said aggrievedly.

"Look, Mio~ it's this video of her making pudding at home, it looks so simple..."

Nozomi could only take a quick look. It was indeed very simple, but Honoka probably messed it up when she was making the caramel.

But if she never gets to eat the little pudding she's been longing for, she might burn the apartment down one day.

Left with no other choice, Nozomi sighed and had to agree.

"If you really want some mini puddings, I'll make a few for you after I finish making dinner~"

"Really?! Mio is the best!"

After saying that, Fanxia suddenly hugged Ximiao, who was washing the pot, and showered him with kisses on his smooth face.

As a result, he ended up with Fanxia's saliva on his cheek, although he didn't really mind it.

However, because they needed to clean up the kitchen, which Fanxia had made a mess of, the two of them ate dinner a little later than usual.

After dinner, I made several jars of mini puddings for her and put them in the refrigerator. Then, Ximiao was about to take a bath.

Just as he was about to enter the bathroom, he suddenly turned around and looked at Fanxia, ​​who was about to get a change of clothes, and said expressionlessly.

"I'll wash it myself today!"

"Hey~ Why! No way~"

Faced with Fanxia's almost childish tantrum, he firmly and righteously refused.

"This is the result of Fanxia-nee making a mess of the kitchen today, and I'm still angry!"

Upon hearing this, Fanxia, ​​who had originally planned to shamelessly follow him into the bathroom, immediately wilted and sat down on the sofa, looking sullen.

Seeing that Sister Fanxia had calmed down, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Now, he could finally take a nice hot bath, something he hadn't done in a long time.

However, he first needs to remove the two bandages stuck to his body.

After a long time.

Having already finished showering, Ximiao walked out of the bathroom wearing loose pajamas. Seeing that Honoka-nee was dressed like that and looked very comfortable, he followed suit.

As for the result, it did feel very comfortable, just a little cold, but after he went back to his room and covered himself with the blanket, there was no major problem.

On the sofa, Fanxia glanced at the boy's fair thighs unintentionally, then coughed lightly as a reminder.

"Ahem~ Mio, have you forgotten something?"

"what?"

But after seeing Fanxia point to her shoulder, the boy suddenly realized.

"Sister Kefan, you haven't taken a shower yet. Shouldn't I give you a massage after you shower?"

"Now! Right now~ My shoulder was really sore when I was helping to clean up the kitchen just now. It's all because you're so demanding of me, Mio."

"..."

Who made them have to clean the kitchen? Don't they have any self-awareness?

However, Nozomi didn't say it out loud.

After sighing, he walked barefoot to the sofa and sat down on Fanxia's lower back.

"You can't always have me massage your shoulders~ That's just treating the symptoms, not the root cause, Fanxia-nee..."

"Okay, okay~ You're so long-winded. Oh, by the way! Mio, isn't your school having a sports meet next week? I happen to be free that day, so I'll go check it out~"

Fanxia, ​​who was lying on the sofa with the boy pressing her shoulders, said this.

Nozomi didn't seem to care much, and simply responded instinctively.

"Then I'll see if Arisa can prepare an extra bento box, or rather, I can make that day's bento box myself..."

"Eh?"

Author's note: Ahhh!

Once the weekend was over and the reviewers were back at work, they deleted several of Rabbit's chapters!

Ahh, rewriting! o(╥﹏╥)o

Chapter Thirty-One: The Sports Meet

With the opening of the two-day sports meet at St. Martin's Private High School, a host of parents accompanied their children to the school.

then.

Early in the morning, in her apartment in Roppongi, Honoka was already eagerly waiting, having changed into the clothes she would only wear when going out.

Meanwhile, Mio was leisurely in the kitchen, wearing an apron, preparing lunch boxes for three people.

A few days ago, after he told Arisa about this, she refused to make a bento for three people without hesitation and said she wanted to eat the bento made by Himo herself.

He figured that since he hadn't signed up for any events and there was no penalty for being late during the sports meet, it wouldn't be a big deal if he arrived a little late.

But...

In order to take the same train as Arisa, he still had to get up early to brush his teeth and wash up, and then prepare the bento boxes for the three of them to eat today.

After he had carefully placed all three lunch boxes into his schoolbag, Ximiao went to the entrance to put on her shoes.

Then, I walked towards the station with Sister Fanxia.

"Hey~ Mio, have you participated in any activities?"

On the way, Fanxia, ​​who was visiting Ximiao's school for the first time, seemed exceptionally excited. Even though she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, he could feel that Fanxia was in particularly high spirits today.

"I only signed up for the long jump, which is relatively easy. After all, I can't just not participate in anything!"

With that, the two boarded the tram heading towards the school.

A girl, also dressed in a uniform, was already seated on the train, waving and greeting Nozomi.

But when she looked at Honoka, who was standing next to Himeko, wearing sunglasses and a mask, her gaze suddenly turned provocative.

For some reason, the moment the two met, Ximiao felt that the temperature in the carriage seemed to drop a little, but then the feeling quickly dissipated.

It was as if he were imagining things.

"Yo~ Long time no see." Arisa greeted Honoka with a forced smile.

"Is this Arisa? Mio is at school, so I'll have to rely on you to take care of her."

however.

When Fanxia took her seat, both girls looked at the boy who was still standing and patted their thighs in unison, signaling him to come over.

When had Hio ever seen anything like this before...?

For a moment, he didn't know what to choose. One was his girlfriend, and the other was the older sister who gave him a place to stay.

After thinking for a while, Nozomi, unable to bear it any longer, silently walked to the other side and sat down, choosing no one.

Even so, the two of them were still unhappy, feeling that it was because of the other's presence that Xi Ling couldn't come to their side.

The carriage was instantly filled with a strong sense of tension, making Xi Ling, who was standing to the side, not dare to look in their direction at all.

To be honest, this was the first time he had brought Fanxia to meet Arisa.

When he was sick last time, Arisa visited him at his apartment, but afterwards, Honoka seemed to have no reaction at all.

Having learned from his previous experience, even though he didn't know what had happened, he knew that the two had met once before, which gave him the courage to let them meet again.

But now...

Looking at the two people glaring at each other, almost ready to fight, he couldn't help but regret his decision.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened along the way.

They just glared at each other, making a show of defiance, and then did nothing more.

Just when he thought everything would be alright, as the tram arrived at the station and he got up to get off, Arisa and Honoka grabbed his wrists, one on each side.

But Xi Ling didn't dare to say a word against it.

He could only let the two of them go to school like that.

Fortunately, Fanxia saw that the school was crowded with people early in the morning, including not only students but also a group of parents.

She looked at Xi Ling's small hand that she was holding and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so she let go of her hand and her eyes became somewhat evasive.

She seemed afraid that others might misunderstand something, which amused Arisa, who was standing to the side.

"That's it?"

"..."

As for Xi Ling, a slight blush appeared on his fair face, which was particularly eye-catching because of his light golden hair.

In addition, his adorable mixed-race features, including a cute face and light blue eyes, drew curious glances from all the parents.

"Let's hurry up and go to our class's camp to grab a spot."

With that, he led Fanxia and Arisa away as if fleeing towards the area of ​​Class 1-A.

After choosing a shady spot, Ximiao spread the picnic blanket he had prepared on the grass, handed his schoolbag containing his lunch to Fanxia for safekeeping, and then went to change his clothes.

For a moment, only Fanxia was left at the campsite, sitting alone on the picnic blanket. Although she was a little socially awkward, she was able to manage with the help of sunglasses.

However, what intrigued her was why there were other similar people in the school, and not just one.

"Besides that filthy devil, is there anyone else? It seems that having that wicked woman by Mio's side isn't such a bad thing after all..."

At least, with her by his side, he can be protected to a large extent.

however.

The few of Fanxia's kind were nearly driven mad with fear when they sensed that in addition to the demon, another formidable being had arrived.
