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

She looked at the boy in front of her with some confusion, wondering what he was going to do.

Xi Ling reached out and took off her sunglasses before explaining to her.

"I almost forgot, I need to help you with your social anxiety, Fanxia."

"Eh--"

Hearing Xi Ling's words, Fan Xia was also very unwilling, but no matter what she did, she was unable to snatch her sunglasses back from the boy.

She had no choice but to put on her shoes in a huff and follow behind him without saying a word, to meet up with Arisa and Ami.

On the way to a nearby family restaurant.

Arisa glanced silently at Honoka, who was tightly gripping Nozomi's small hand, and seemed quite interested in her socially awkward appearance.

After all, when she met Fanxia before, he was always aggressive and seemed ready to fight her right away.

Right now, with her sunglasses confiscated by Nozomi and her walking down the street, she's reverted to her typical otaku, socially awkward self, which Arisa finds quite novel.

However, she wouldn't take advantage of someone's misfortune and tease Fanxia now.

Ami, who had also seen Honoka's appearance, looked thoughtful, as if she was thinking about something.

Soon, the group entered a family-run restaurant with a fairly decent decor.

When the automatic door opened and the cool air from the air conditioner hit her, Fanxia felt for a moment as if she had returned home, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, the shop assistant came forward, which immediately made her nerves tense up again.

Fortunately, she is no longer going out alone and doesn't need to deal with strangers.

Ximiao stepped forward and shielded Fanxia behind her, speaking to the shop assistant.

"There are four of us. Could you please give us a seat that's a bit cooler, preferably next to the air conditioner? Thank you."

As for why he chose this position, we have to mention Fanxia, ​​who was already sweating bullets.

If she continued to provoke her, her clothes would probably get soaked. In addition, Fanxia was wearing a white T-shirt, and Ximiao didn't want Fanxia's more private clothes to be revealed from under the T-shirt.

Led by the shop assistant, the group sat down in a cooler spot.

"Oh, so Ms. Ami is also planning to move in here."

Fanxia was only just finding out that Ami was also moving in, and she was quite surprised.

But when she saw Arisa's unhappy expression, she felt a little smug.

At this moment, Ashi took a sip of lemonade to moisten her dry throat before speaking.

"After all, even with Peros helping to look after her, I'm still not entirely at ease letting her live alone all the time."

"Plus……"

At this point, Ami's wine-red eyes subconsciously glanced at Nozomi, who was sitting opposite her, with a somewhat meaningful look in her eyes.

However, Xi Ling didn't care too much about that. His eyes were fixed on the menu in front of him, even though he wanted to focus all his attention on it.

But Fanxia's restless, fair hands were under the table, caressing his thighs that had no excess fat.

This prevented him from concentrating on what he wanted to eat for lunch.

After a while, Ximiao finally couldn't bear it any longer and suddenly stood up, her restless little hand immediately falling down.

"Um, I'll go get some drinks."

After saying that, Nozomi walked towards the self-service beverage counter without looking back, the warmth of Honoka's fair little hand still lingering on her leg.

This caused a blush to rise on his face, and he had to drink an iced beverage to calm himself down.

but……

Thinking back to what he had done to Fanxia's pink lips while she was asleep, Ximiao couldn't help but wonder if this was his retribution.

Unfortunately, no one could tell him whether it was true or not.

Chapter 87 Remedial Study

That night.

It was also the first night that Arisa brought Pelos to stay in the apartment downstairs, after moving out from Nozomi and Honoka's place.

For the first time in a long time, only Nozomi and Honoka were left in the living room, sitting quietly on the sofa watching TV.

"After Arisa left, the house became quiet... I actually feel a little uneasy. What about you, Mio?"

"It is a bit... Even though I know Arisa is downstairs, I still feel a little lonely..."

Hearing what Fanxia said, Ximiao nodded slightly, agreeing with her statement.

But then, without warning, Sister Fanxia said...

"Let's sleep together tonight~"

"Eh?"

Wow, that's a really fast topic shift!

Just as he turned his head, intending to give Fanxia a proper talking-to, he saw that her beautiful eyes were also staring at him.

The next moment, the woman's familiar, delicate fragrance wafted towards him, and before Xi Ling could even react, Fan Xia pushed her down onto the sofa.

"Sister Fanxia?"

Her pale blue eyes stared at Fanxia, ​​who was now pressing down on her, and she was very puzzled as to what she was doing.

“When Arisa was here before, Mio, you didn’t give me a proper shoulder massage in ages…”

"Shouldn't you be lying down, Fanxia-nee?"

Nozomi struggled, trying to break free of the wrist that Honoka was holding down, and said irritably.

however.

He only heard Sister Fanxia whispering in his ear.

"I have to switch places with Mio every now and then, otherwise it'll get boring~"

"..."

downstairs.

In Arisa's bedroom.

The girl lay lazily on her soft bed, her delicate white feet kicking wildly, making the once neat bedding and sheets look very messy.

At this moment, Arisa's expression was somewhat helpless.

Although she was happy to be able to live downstairs from Ximiao, she had now lost the opportunity to sneak into Ximiao's room every night and do naughty things.

This made her feel somewhat disappointed.

Arisa, who had been lounging on the soft bed for a long time, suddenly sat up as if she had just remembered something, and took two magazines from the bookshelf next to her.

One of the books has a poster cover taken when Nozomi first went to work there, while the other book has photos that Ami commissioned to be taken.

"This is the only thing we can use as a temporary measure... I was hoping that Mio would wear these clothes herself and show them to me."

She couldn't help but murmur to herself.

While Arisa was quietly using a magazine to solve her immediate problem, in another bedroom, Ami, wearing only a thin black gauze nightgown, was sitting at her desk, writing something in her diary with a fountain pen.

After all, she had lived for so long that even with her excellent memory, she would inevitably forget some things.

To solve this problem, without realizing it, Asami developed the habit of writing a diary.

Although it was impossible to tell what A was thinking when she took a bath with Xi Ling in the morning, when she was alone in the bedroom, the blush on her mature and pretty face just wouldn't go away.

"What are you thinking... that's your daughter's boyfriend..."

Asumi slapped her cheeks hard, trying to calm herself down. Her eyes flickered slightly before she put down her pen and closed the thick diary.

Only she herself probably knows what she wrote inside.

……

After Arisa and Aunt Ami moved to the apartment building below Nozomi's, some time passed.

Having finished her monthly exams with a sense of certain death, Arisa looked at her newly handed-out report card with a grim expression.

Although she was mentally prepared that her monthly exam results would be much worse than her midterm exam results, she never expected them to be so unbearable to look at.

Sitting next to her, Xi Ling performed as consistently as ever, maintaining her position as the top student in the grade. However, she didn't seem to care much about it.

"Let's go, Mio, let's ask the teacher for another day off. It's time to cram for the final exams."

"Ugh—not again?"

Upon hearing what Arisa said, Nozomi immediately recalled that she not only had to tutor Arisa, but also had to work part-time to help the girl reduce stress.

Before Ximio could complain, Arisa grabbed his wrist and pulled him toward the teacher's office.

After successfully obtaining the leave slip, Nozomi first went to Hanako's place to tell her, and then followed Arisa onto the train back to Roppongi.

He didn't even need to go back to the apartment; Arisa, sitting behind him, had already started groping him.

Sitting on the girl's lap, Xi Ling stared intently at her restless little hand with her pale blue eyes and whispered something.

"Wait...this is a tram, don't do anything reckless!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Arisa's dark tail was already wrapped around his fair thigh, as if teasing him, rubbing against him haphazardly.

This caused Himio to feel an itch. She tried to get up, but the girl's arms were wrapped around her waist, preventing her from escaping.

At that moment, Arisa, who had brought her pink lips close to Nozomi's ear, spoke slowly.

"I'm just collecting interest. You haven't even paid the price for Mio's wish to make her your girlfriend yet, and now you think you're all grown up and want to go back on your word?"

"No way!" Xi Ling replied irritably, but fine beads of sweat kept appearing on his fair forehead.

"Really? Then you'd better behave and not move around."

"..."
