Food Wars, My Dishes Don't Just Shine

This guy is really fearless, daring to jump from such a height.

"Well..."

Grabbing her by the back of her collar, Alice Nakiri swayed slightly. It was less than two meters away; she could easily handle it!

"What if you jump down like that and hurt your leg? We're here to have fun, but if we get hurt, we won't be happy anymore."

Seeing that Alice Nakiri had some reservations about his decision, Hakugen earnestly advised her.

A distance of less than two meters is indeed not very high, but there is still a risk of injury.

"Okay, got it."

Although she was a little annoyed by being stopped, Alice Nakiri knew that Shirai was concerned about her, so she made a face at him and didn't say anything more.

"The planks are in place, hurry up and get down."

At the same time, Hisako Shinto's voice rang out, and she gently lowered the plank, connecting the yacht to the beach to facilitate their passage.

"I want to be the first one back to the villa!"

Looking at the wooden planks connecting the two banks, Alice Nakiri's frustration dissipated slightly. She then jogged and jumped onto them, her face beaming with excitement.

"Alice is really lively."

Seeing this, Tadokoro Megumi couldn't help but sigh, and then stepped onto the wooden plank. The people around her followed one after another, walking on the beach in flip-flops.

"She's been like this for more than just a day or two."

Watching Alice Nakiri's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Erina Nakiri shrugged and muttered a complaint before quickening her pace.

Seeing her like this, those around her also felt the same way.

Not long after.

The group of nine returned to the villa.

Alice Nakiri took out her key, opened the door, then turned to look at Bai Yuan and the others, raised her hand in a V-sign, and showed a victor's expression.

"Hehe, I'm the first one."

"I understand. No one is going to compete with you for first place."

"I mean, I'm a little sleepy, so I'm going to take a shower."

"Teacher Baiyuan, would you like to join us? All the girls here are your girlfriends, so you won't even need towels at the hot spring today."

Upon entering the villa, the women became noticeably more talkative, chattering away.

Yoshino Yuuki appeared behind Shirabuchi without anyone noticing, her words carrying a strange allure, like a devil tempting people to fall.

"Ahem, that sounds great! Let's all soak in the hot spring together. We've been underwater for a long time today, so this is a good way to get rid of the chill."

Upon hearing Yoshino Yuuki's suggestion, Shirobuchi's heart stirred.

Yesterday, because of their presence, he didn't get to do much. Now that all the girls here are his girlfriends, he won't feel any guilt about touching them...

"stare..."

As Bai Yuan finished speaking, countless gazes fell upon him, some filled with inquiry, others with disdain.

Everyone knows he has ulterior motives, yet everyone is willing to accept them, which is undeniably a contradiction.

Many people even showed expressions of anticipation.

"Forget it, Ryoko is the main character today, so I won't compete with you. I'll go first."

Seeing the eager expressions on the faces of those around her, Tadokoro Megumi felt a pang of unease, sensing something was amiss. As she spoke, she strode towards the bathroom.

Today is a day for Shirayuki and Ryoko Sakaki to be together, so it's not allowed for everyone to be together.

"That's true, it's not good to steal Ryoko's thunder. I'll go upstairs to take a shower."

Upon hearing Tadokoro Megumi's words, Yoshino Yuuki finally realized what was happening and ran upstairs as soon as she finished speaking.

Seeing this, the others exchanged glances but said nothing, simply dispersing. No one was prepared to be a third wheel, much less want to ruin Sakaki Ryoko's first experience.

For a moment, only Shirayuki and Ryoko Sakaki remained at the scene.

"These guys are so presumptuous."

But you're right, today is the day you confessed your love, it's definitely a memorable day..."

Looking at Sakaki Ryoko, who was hanging her head as if she were shy and whose toes were slightly curled, Shirabuchi's heart raced.

Compared to someone who is very proactive, he definitely prefers someone who is more reserved and shy.

Especially someone like Ryoko Sakaki, who has the face of a mature woman and a figure as ripe as a peach, yet acts like a naive young girl.

Bai Yuan simply couldn't handle such a contrast.

"Hmm, how would you like to commemorate this, Professor Bai Yuan?"

For some reason, this thought popped into Ryoko Sakaki's mind, and she blurted it out unconsciously.

However, she immediately regretted saying it.

This sounds like she's asking for favors. Won't Teacher Bai Yuan think she's a terrible person because of this?

"Let me think, how about a cake? I bought some flour when I was cooking yesterday, which is perfect for making a cake. As for the cream, I'll call someone to deliver it."

"Eh?"

Seeing that Shiro was seriously considering making a cake to celebrate their anniversary, Ryoko Sakaki looked surprised.

It was already past nine o'clock when we were on the boat. After a period of sailing, and then from the beach to the villa, it was now past ten o'clock. Should Bai Yuan make her a cake at this time?

Isn't it a bit too late?

"What's wrong? Do you prefer chocolate or strawberry? Or something else?"

Bai Yuan's voice was filled with curiosity, somewhat puzzled as to why Sakaki Ryoko was standing there in a daze, and he simply asked her what flavor of cake she wanted.

"What flavor? It's late at night, the original flavor is fine."

Seeing that Shiroyuki's expression was serious and not like he was joking, Ryoko Sakaki also began to think.

Eating chocolate late at night can easily lead to weight gain, and other flavors will leave a strong taste in your mouth, which you're likely to notice when kissing.

The two were not an old married couple who would go to bed after eating cake.

After officially establishing their relationship, Ryoko Sakaki knew better than anyone what the next step should be.

So she planned to brush her teeth properly after eating the cake to freshen her breath before embarking on a wonderful dream journey with Bai Yuan.

"it is good."

Hearing Ryoko Sakaki's words, Shiroyuki nodded slightly and went into the kitchen to prepare.

"and many more."

Suddenly, Ryoko Sakaki grabbed Shiro's hand as he was about to make a phone call, her voice short and urgent.

"what happened?"

Bai Yuan put down his phone with a puzzled expression.

"Can we save it for tomorrow? I'm a little full tonight."

Ryoko Sakaki told a little lie; the real reason was that she didn't want her breath to smell when kissing, not only her own but also Shiro's.

After all, it was her precious first experience, and she didn't want to leave any flaws.

"Of course, you're the oldest today."

Seeing that Ryoko Sakaki was a little hesitant, Shirayu gently brushed away the strands of hair that had fallen across her forehead, revealing her smooth forehead.

"Okay, let's take a bath together then."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Sakaki Ryoko was delighted, and then looked up at him and said.

"Yes, or rather, I actually hope so."

As he spoke, Bai Yuan picked up Sakaki Ryoko and strode towards the hot spring.

"Wait, I haven't gone back to my room to get a change of clothes yet!"

A sudden feeling of weightlessness washed over her, and before she knew it, Bai Yuan had already picked her up. Remembering that her clothes were still in the room and hadn't been brought over, Sakaki Ryoko blushed.

"It's okay, don't worry about these minor details."

"How did it become a trivial matter..."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Sakaki Ryoko's face flushed even more, and she couldn't help but retort.

However, she didn't dwell on it too much, since he was always there for her no matter what happened.

Even if it's embarrassing, we'll both lose face!

"This hot spring is really nice; it's not only large, but the water temperature is just right."

In the changing room, Bai Yuan took off his clothes and spoke to Sakaki Ryoko beside him. At this moment, the girl was still holding her underwear.

"Teacher Bai Yuan, please don't turn around suddenly!"

Bai Yuan suddenly turned around, startling Sakaki Ryoko so much that she couldn't help but scream. She instinctively clutched her chest and took a few steps back, leaning against the wall.

"What's wrong? Didn't I already see everything yesterday, things you should and shouldn't have seen? Now you're shy? You were so lively yesterday."

Seeing Ryoko Sakaki's behavior, Shiro was speechless. They were already in a relationship, yet she was acting like this. He then took two steps forward and handed her the soap.

"You were definitely watching me yesterday. I knew it was you when the towel tore! I suspected it was you then, since you were the only guy there. I didn't expect it really was you."

Taking the soap from Shirai, Ryoko Sakaki was a little puzzled, wondering what the white cube was for, but now was clearly not the time to worry about that.

Under Bai Yuan's gaze, her expression slightly hardened, and in the end she even lowered her hand, no longer bothering to hide it, and began to speak in a sarcastic tone.

"There was nothing I could do. It happened so suddenly that I didn't know where to look, and my eyes just fell on you, who were right in front of me. It was beyond my control."

Looking at Sakaki Ryoko, who was standing in front of him with her hands on her hips and staring at him, Shiroyuki coughed awkwardly twice and gave an excuse that was hardly an excuse.

"Oh, that's beyond our control."

Ryoko Sakaki deliberately drew out her words, clearly indicating her distrust of him.

What is this soap used for?

"What else can soap be used for? Of course, it's for taking a bath."
