In crossover anime, who isn't a childhood friend?

"She's eating at the restaurant and hasn't come over yet. Let's speak quietly, it'll be fine."

Shihua was relieved.

"I am fine."

"Are you really alright?"

"It's really nothing."

When pressed for answers again, Shihua's cheeks flushed.

Before last night, she subconsciously believed that her first experience of sexual intercourse would be accompanied by a tearing pain.

This is not an exaggerated imagination, but a clear description found in standard textbooks for physiology and hygiene courses.

In addition, she also has practical experience.

This experience does not refer to herself, but rather to the actual conversations she heard from her classmates.

The girl's sighing words drifted silently to Shihua's ears. She ate her meal normally without changing her expression, showing little emotion, because at that time she felt that such things were too far removed from her own experience.

But she soon realized that her understanding was wrong; many things are experienced differently by everyone.

In short, Toka did not experience the kind of pain that she could not accept.

"It's good that you're alright. I just made a quick breakfast, so make do with this for now. I'll make a more substantial lunch later."

"I won't settle for less..."

Shihua immediately retorted, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness that she herself didn't even realize.

Her gaze fell on the golden toast and the colorful salad.

"I really like your toast. It's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The vegetable salad is also refreshing, low in fat, nutritious and filling. It's perfect for me right now as I'm trying to control my weight."

As she spoke, she subconsciously reached out and touched her flat stomach.

Yuan Qianye was amused by her actions and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the tip of her pert nose with the back of his fingers, a gesture that was intimate and natural.

"Why worry about controlling your weight? You're just right now, you're beautiful."

He paused, his tone becoming serious.

"Get some rest and listen to me. You don't need to worry about anything at home today. I'll take care of everything. Clearing the dishes, cleaning the rooms, doing laundry... Your only task is to rest in bed and recharge."

He specifically emphasized the words "restore vitality".

Shihua frowned slightly, somewhat unconvinced.

"But I feel like I'm actually fine, I'm in great spirits. Although... cough..."

She seemed about to say something, but stopped herself in time, her blush deepening.

"I'm feeling a little unwell, but it's completely within my tolerance range! Have you forgotten what I used to train for? I've been training in dance for over ten years, so I have a great foundation and my physical fitness is much stronger than the average girl. I'm not that delicate at all."

She tried to emphasize her physical fitness by citing her past experiences, but her slightly flushed ears betrayed her lack of confidence.

No, the reason you can still talk back to me like this and act like you're super strong is purely because yesterday I held back at least nine-tenths of my strength and unleashed an entire ocean of power. Otherwise... cough cough, never mind, it's too early to talk about that now.

Qianye doesn't plan to discuss the difference in strength with Shika in depth for the time being. Anyway, the two of them have already officially broken through that barrier and crossed the most important boundary. They still have a long time to spend together, and she will soon be able to deeply understand this cruel fact through practice.

"Just listen to me. I have more experience in this than you. You'll recover faster if you rest well. Besides, even if you don't feel any problem, you'll definitely feel a little unnatural when you walk. You don't want Rikka to notice that something's wrong, do you?"

"..."

Tohka imagined the scene, and Rikka, with her big, round eyes, asked curiously, "Sister, why are you walking so strangely?" "Did you twist your back?"...

She felt a chill run down her spine.

The second half of Yuan Qianye's sentence precisely hit her weak spot and concerns.

She sighed helplessly, her shoulders slumping.

“…Okay. You’re right.” She chose to compromise.

However, Yuan Qianye's confident statement that he had more experience in this area than she did was intended to use his experience to strengthen his persuasiveness and get her to rest.

But when Shihua heard this, it made her feel a subtle bitterness in her heart.

Where did this experience come from? It goes without saying.

Thinking about his relationship with Saeko Busujima and Utaha Kasumigaoka, Toka felt as if a tiny thorn had gently pricked her heart.

Seeing that Toka's previously resigned expression suddenly faltered slightly, and her beautiful eyebrows raised almost imperceptibly, Gen Chiya keenly caught this subtle change in expression.

But now that the words have been spoken, they are like water spilled, impossible to take back.

Fortunately, Shika is not the type to hold a grudge and become relentlessly jealous.

She has always been rational and tolerant, possessing the gentle demeanor of an older sister.

Yesterday, he called her "good sister" so affectionately so many times in her ear, so she naturally had to show the same composure.

"Is it the same for Saeko and Utaha?"

"What?"

"It's because you're the one who'll be demanding that you lie down and rest obediently between you."

Yuan Qianye nodded without changing his expression, lying: "Yes, of course."

After recalling everything, it's clear he can't be blamed.

Such a sight only aroused his deepest affection for Shika. Although he felt it wasn't enough, he could barely endure it because of his desire to protect her at this moment.

"I see..." Toka seemed thoughtful about Minamoto no Chiya's reply.

Gen Chiya fed Toka a small piece of toast: "Are you very concerned about their affairs?"

"Mmm, mmm..." She chewed and swallowed: "I'm just a little curious, what I care about most is you."

"What's wrong with me?"

"I always thought... you were a germaphobe."

"Oh—" Yuan Qianye instantly understood: "It means..."

"stop……!"

Shihua's face flushed bright red instantly, as if it were about to bleed.

She suddenly reached out and covered Yuan Qianye's mouth tightly, her beautiful eyes wide open, filled with shame, anger, and a strong warning, as if to say: You dare to say it and see!

Saeko and Utaha are probably used to it by now.

But Shika was only a beginner and couldn't get past her own sense of shame.

Yuan Qianye shrugged and spread his hands, indicating that he would not talk nonsense, which made her breathe a sigh of relief and slowly let go of his hand.

Chiya wanted to continue feeding her breakfast, but Toka took the plate from her.

"Because it's Tohka, it doesn't matter to me. Besides, Tohka, didn't you do the same thing to me before?"

"I'm sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't have brought this up. Let's end it here."

Shihua was so ashamed that she lowered her head to a 90-degree angle with her body.

"I'll just say one last thing, which is also a little-known fact."

"What are you trying to say now?"

"You know what? Actually, putting aside stereotypes and talking about science, the human mouth is much dirtier than anything else, so..."

"Stop talking!"

"Okay, okay, let's change the subject. Just thinking about what Shihua will be like when she becomes a mother makes me really look forward to the future."

"go out."

Yuan Qianye laughed happily, leaned over and gave Shihua a quick kiss on the side of her face.

"Put it by your bedside after you finish eating, and I'll come and put it away for you later."

After saying that, he left the room.

Shihua had no choice but to take another deep breath, and touched her face with the back of her hand. It was burning hot, just like when she had a cold.

Shortly after that, Gen Chiya came over and asked Toka what she wanted for lunch, and then took Rikka out to the supermarket.

Shihua, still feeling bored while lying in bed, got up and went to the living room.

She silently felt the effects of those few steps, touching her lower abdomen with her left hand, and realized it wasn't as serious as Qianye had described.

She took smaller steps and slowed her movements, confident that Rikka wouldn't notice anything amiss.

I'll make lunch myself when they get back.

With that thought in mind, her gaze naturally drifted to the balcony.

Her clothes, already washed, were tucked among other garments, swaying gently in the breeze.

This guy is really quick.

I just don't know if Rikka's clothes are also hand-washed by him.

Volume 2:

Chapter 001: A New Stage in Life

Since getting through that ordeal with Toka, the relationship between Minamoto Chiya and Toka has progressed rapidly and become extremely passionate.

After resting for two days and waiting until her health was fine, Toka took the initiative to approach Rikka, subtly suggesting that she could relax more carefree during her last few days of vacation.

After all, once she enters high school, her academic workload will suddenly increase, and she may also have to consider club activities. At that time, her time will not be as relaxed as it is now.

Rikka nodded, somewhat bewildered, not quite understanding Toka's implied meaning at first.

Having no other choice, Toka simply brought out the fruit she had bought in advance, along with some homemade crispy cakes and pastries, and placed them on the table for Eriri to deliver to her house as a way of thanking her for her care over the years.

Please continue to guide me in the upcoming new semester.

Then, at the very end, Toka turned her head away slightly, looking a little guilty, and mumbled a final suggestion: if Eriri wanted you to stay, you could stay overnight at her house.

Having said that much, Rikka naturally understood.

She was completely unaware of what was slightly strange about her sister, and only felt delighted.

Because she had stayed overnight at Eriri's house before, her older sister wouldn't be so open-minded; instead, she would worry that Eriri would cause trouble for others.
