A newbie's anime life diary

Before the other person could turn around, Xuehui slammed the door shut, cutting off Hiratsuka Shizuka's screams.

Half an hour later, Xuehui secretly opened the door, glanced at Hiratsuka Shizuka who was still sitting there watching TV without responding, breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked out openly. He took a can of orange juice from the refrigerator and sat down next to Hiratsuka Shizuka on the sofa.

"Have you forgotten something?"

A deep voice asked, and Xuehui paused, put down his drink, turned around, and stared at Hiratsuka Shizuka from head to toe several times.

Short-sleeved shirt, hot pants, big bust, slim waist, long legs—perfect!

"I was just joking. Sister Jing is not fat at all, and has a great figure."

"You're smart enough to know what's good for you, but you'd better kneel over there!" A smile flashed across her face, and Hiratsuka Shizuka pointed at the single sofa next to her with an ice cream spoon.

"Um...that..."

"Quickly! Go!"

“Yes…” Xuehui rolled over smoothly and knelt down on the single sofa.

Yeah, it takes some getting used to.

Looking at the obedient Yuki, Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded in satisfaction and said, "You're pretty good, kid."

"??"

"Don't play dumb with me. I never expected you to fall for that kid, Yukinoshita." Hiratsuka Shizuka said with a playful smile, but unconsciously tightened her grip on the spoon.

"...You were eavesdropping! That's unethical!"

"It's your own fault for not lowering your voices," Xiao Jingjing shook her head, indicating that she wouldn't take the blame.

"But you clearly turned on the stereo!"

"That thing works on me?"

Xuehui was speechless. Hiratsuka Shizuka's hearing was beyond normal; she had overheard countless whispers from more than ten steps away in the school.

"I completely forgot about that. I have to say, you're stronger now." Shaking his head, Xuehui looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka with a wry smile. "So, Shizuka-nee, what do you want to say?"

"Is it something you want to do? You're really not going to confess? I think with your abilities, that girl should be interested in you."

"No need, this is fine now." Xuehui shook his head again, a smile on his face.

"When did you become so cowardly?" Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned, as if she had thought of something. "Are you worried about your family? If you want, you can come back. My mother told me that she has the final say on the division of the family now. She never wanted any family members to be wandering outside."

Hiratsuka Shizuka's mother is currently in charge of a branch of the Hiratsuka family. As for why it's not her father in charge, it's because he married into the family, which is quite common in large families.

If you really want to count, I'm just a distant relative. However, I had met that distant cousin briefly at my parents' funeral. It's said that she strongly opposed my father's departure, but unfortunately, she didn't have any real power at the time, so she didn't succeed.

Looking back now, I think this might be one of the reasons why Hiratsuka Shizuka became her guardian.

"That won't be necessary. I don't feel a sense of belonging there anyway. You can take care of my family, Sister Jing."

"Hmph, all you do is say nice things." A slight smile appeared on Hiratsuka Shizuka's face. She had already expected the other party's rejection, so she didn't care.

"But you've really let it go? Hmph, come to think of it, hasn't that third-year student Kasumigaoka Utaha been coming to see you a lot lately? Could it be that she's really taken a liking to you right away? Young man, it's not good to be indecisive."

Hearing the obvious teasing, Xuehui smiled wryly and said, "Please stop talking, okay? It's impossible. Although I've talked to her quite a bit about the novel, I won't fall in love with her so quickly."

"So you're saying things get unpredictable over time?"

"You're a Chinese language teacher, I can't argue with you."

Xuehui immediately conceded defeat; he was no match for a professional teacher in playing word games. But deep down, he wondered if they could continue spending time together, and he might just fall for the slightly cunning Kasumigaoka Utaha-senpai, since he already had a good impression of her.

He shook his head. "Let's talk about this later; there's no telling what will happen."

Ultimately, the topic came to an end without resolution. Knowing that Yukiteru was very opinionated, Hiratsuka Shizuka knew that she had already asked these questions to the limit, and unless he wanted to, she would not get any answers if she continued.

At night, with nothing to do, Yukiteru went to bed early, leaving Hiratsuka Shizuka in the living room, staring blankly at the television screen.

By the time I realized it, it was already past 11 o'clock.

Standing up, preparing to go back to her room to rest, as she passed by Yukiteru's bedroom, Hiratsuka Shizuka unconsciously stopped and reached out to open the door.

She walked in silently, and by the moonlight, she saw Xuehui, who was fast asleep under a thin blanket.

"You're such a hassle. How am I supposed to compete with my own student for this?"

I shifted my feet...

Since that's the case, let's just do it this once.

With a hint of helplessness, Hiratsuka quietly climbed into bed, lifted a corner of the blanket, snuggled close to the boy beside her, and slowly closed her eyes.

"What am I doing...?"

Half an hour later, Yukihiro, who had been asleep, opened his eyes and looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka beside him, as well as her soft breathing.

'Although I encountered Yukinoshita Haruno and some things were exposed, I also discovered some other things. That time it really wasn't just about being drunk.'

"I feel like there are more and more things troubling me." Yukiteru muttered to himself as he looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka's sleeping face.

Seemingly disturbed, Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned in annoyance while sleeping and snuggled closer to Yukiteru.

'She's really cute when she's asleep. Oh well, I don't want to think about it anymore.'

Reaching out, Yukiteru carefully embraced Hiratsuka Shizuka and closed his eyes again.

I feel dawn.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had slept exceptionally well last night, woke up on time, urged by her biological clock.

Opening her eyes and looking at the room that was clearly not her own bedroom, she finally realized that she didn't know how she had ended up sleeping in Xuehui's bed last night.

'Aaaaaah! How shameless!'

Seeing that she was now alone in the room, Hiratsuka Shizuka quickly got up, walked out of the room, and finally breathed a sigh of relief as she listened to the sound of the spatula in the kitchen.

"He's not angry, is he?"

With a touch of trepidation, she walked over.

Let's leave it at that for now and elaborate on it later...

Chapter 84 Two People Who Lied Through Their Eyes

Xuehui heard it as soon as the door opened. He took the poached eggs out of the pan, turned around and looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka who was slowly walking into the living room. He smiled and said, "Good morning, Shizuka-nee."

Although it was just a casual greeting, Hiratsuka Shizuka blushed the moment she saw Yukiteru after doing something so shameful the night before: "Good...good morning."

Seeing Hiratsuka Shizuka's reaction, Yukiteru knew perfectly well that he had listened to every word she said last night. He knew that some things couldn't be said, otherwise, given Hiratsuka Shizuka's personality, she would definitely get angry.

For now, turning a blind eye is the best option.

Having made his decision, Xuehui clapped his hands, walked up to Hiratsuka Shizuka, looked her over, and said, "Shizuka-nee, you shouldn't have been drinking last night, right? I didn't smell any alcohol. How did you end up in the wrong room?"

'Huh? That's it?'

I originally thought Xuehui's performance would be even more exaggerated, but he only asked this one question?

Once she calmed down a bit, Hiratsuka Shizuka quickly regained her composure and said, "Um... I woke up in a daze last night to go to the bathroom, and somehow ended up in your room. But why didn't you wake up?"

"I'm a heavy sleeper," Xuehui replied matter-of-factly, then looked at the other person and narrowed his eyes, "You...you didn't do anything to me last night, did you?"

"Smack!"

As if a certain trigeminal nerve in her brain had been misdirected, Hiratsuka Shizuka lowered her head and placed her hand on Yukiteru's shoulder.

"Kid, what did you say?"

"It's nothing! Jing-jie, go wash up, breakfast will be ready soon!"

Before the other person could react, Xuehui immediately turned around and rushed to the kitchen.

"Hmph!" After a cold snort, Hiratsuka Shizuka strode into the bathroom with the air of a victor. After closing the door, she pondered, "Next time, could I really do something?"

Well, older single women often have some impure thoughts when they're around younger men.

On the other side, Xuehui was busy in the kitchen and breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to get away with what happened last night.

"Luckily I woke up early today, otherwise if Sister Jing had discovered her sleeping position herself, I would definitely have been the one in trouble."

As Xuehui prepared his lunchbox, he recalled the scene of Hiratsuka Shizuka lying on top of him when he woke up a few mornings ago.

Although he had held Yukino's hand before and had been linked arm-in-arm with Utaha Kasumigaoka, being woken up in bed with such a mature older sister was still too much of a shock for a young boy in his adolescence.

It took Xuehui immense willpower to resist the temptation of those long, white legs. He took a cold shower for more than ten minutes in the bathroom to recover.

"You can come over later, but please reconsider staying overnight. Otherwise, I'll really lose my virginity. Although I could definitely accept it if my first time was with Jingke."

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She quickly cleared her mind of the lewd thoughts, took out the stir-fried meat slices and packed them into a box. Just then, Hiratsuka Shizuka finished washing up and came out.

Yukiteru didn't take last night's events to heart, and Hiratsuka Shizuka noticed this, finally returning to her usual self.

After breakfast, the two got into the sports car and headed to school.

Hiratsuka Shizuka's sports car was already common knowledge at Soubu High School; all the students and teachers knew about it. This mature and beautiful female teacher was also a wealthy heiress, so seeing the sports car coming and going was no longer as surprising as it had been at the beginning.

After parking the car, the two walked towards the teaching building, and on the way they happened to run into Yukino Yukinoshita, who had come to the school alone.

"Good morning, Hiratsuka-kun, Hiratsuka-sensei." Seeing the two walking from the parking lot next door, Yukinoshita stopped to say good morning, which was rare for her. There were very few people in the whole school who could receive such treatment.

"Good morning."

"Good morning." The two greeted Yukino Yukinoshita as well, and then walked together.

Yukiteru remained calm and walked quietly beside Yukino Yukinoshita, while Hiratsuka Shizuka watched this scene with a strange feeling.

I feel both annoyed and regretful.

Halfway there, Hiratsuka Shizuka said goodbye to the two and went to her office, leaving the two to go up the stairs.

“I saw your sister last night.”

"!!" Although she didn't speak, Yukino Yukinoshita's face clearly showed surprise. It seemed that her expressions only became more varied when Yukino Yukinoshita was mentioned.

Of course, it wasn't a happy expression on his face.

After a few seconds, she realized: "Hiratsuka-sensei's guest last night was her?"

Xuehui nodded and said, "It seems that he skipped class for a day and went out to play. Then he went to Sister Jing's house for dinner and dragged me over to be his cook. He didn't even give me a little bit of compensation. I had to buy the ingredients myself."
