I endured the humiliation when I was besieged by the ghost story big sister

After all, Arisa didn't know that if Shimiao came out of the kotatsu now, the problem she would face would not just be that lunch would become very bad.

After thinking for a moment, Xi Mio spoke righteously to Arisa sitting opposite her.

"You have to have a little more faith in Auntie Asi. It's just a rice cake. As long as it's cooked, dipped in condensed milk and crushed peanuts, it will be delicious anyway~"

Although Arisa took the initiative to talk to him, which made Xi Mio inexplicably happy, but now... is not the right time!

I saw that Xi Mio suddenly clenched his fists and seemed to be very uncomfortable. After seeing this scene, Alisa couldn't help but worry about what happened to him.

However, after just a while, he sat up as if nothing had happened, reached out to take a tangerine, and continued to peel the peel.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Fan Xia on the side suddenly stood up, said something, and walked towards the toilet.

All these suspicious signs from the two people appeared in front of Arisa. She only needed to think about it for a little while to roughly guess what had happened.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and the next moment, a gleam of light flashed in her beautiful wine-red eyes.

In just a moment, she was able to see what was going on under the kotatsu.

I saw Xi Mio sneakily cleaning the dirty area with a tissue, as if she didn't want to be discovered by others.

and……

The leggings and panties were gone, and she finally understood why Xi Mio looked so reluctant when she asked him if he wanted to help in the kitchen.

It turns out that this is really not very convenient. I got up and went to the kitchen.

Seeing this, a bad idea suddenly came to Arisa's mind.

After Fanxia washed her hands and sat back down, she had no intention of continuing to bully Ximiao and planned to let him go for the time being.

At the same time, after being busy in the kitchen for most of the day, Yashi finally figured out what the tutorial on cooking rice cakes written on the phone meant.

She tasted the baked rice cake and found it tasted very good. It was the best dish she had ever tried.

After putting all the baked rice cakes on a plate, she added some sugar she had found and brought it to the living room.

"Here I come~ roasted rice cakes, come and try them, how does it taste~"

"Then I'm not welcome!"

Xi Mio spoke first.

Holding chopsticks and looking at the grilled rice cake on the plate, it looks very good. Why did Arisa say that the ending of letting Aunt Asi cook will be very miserable?

I don't understand these mother and daughter...

however.

Just as Xi Mio picked up a piece of rice cake, dipped it in a little sugar, and was about to put it into her mouth, her hand suddenly stopped.

The touch was completely different from Sister Fanxia's cold little hand just now, as if there was a layer of soft cloth between them.

But when he turned his head and looked at Sister Fanxia beside him, wanting to ask her what she was doing, he found that Sister Fanxia was eating rice cakes attentively.

Just like now, the one who was secretly bullying him under the kotatsu was not Sister Fanxia.

and many more……

As if she discovered something, Xi Mio suddenly raised her head and looked at Arisa who had been looking at her with a smile since just now.

When I saw the gleam of light flickering in her wine-red eyes, I understood who was causing the constant touch under the kotatsu.

But he couldn't say anything because Aunt Asi was sitting next to him. Even though the discomfort he felt was getting stronger, he had to pretend to be calm.

"Mio? You look so bad, what happened?"

Alisa asked knowingly.

Chapter 38 School Starts

Ever since the New Year, Xi Mio has had a certain psychological trauma towards the kotatsu in the house...

He didn't know how many times he had made the kotatsu dirty. Every time he put his feet into the kotatsu, he would subconsciously recall the time when he was bullied by Sister Fanxia's little hands and by Aresa's jailer.

"Alas - school starts tomorrow. Why does it feel like this winter vacation has passed so quickly?"

I saw Xi Mio lying bored on the soft sofa, with her head resting on Sister Fanxia's thigh, and she let out a sigh that all students would make before school starts.

"It's winter vacation after all, which is only about a month. We went to Hokkaido for two weeks, so naturally it felt like the vacation was much shorter."

"That's right..."

If the time they spent in Hokkaido was included, Xi Mio felt that the vacation was quite long.

"So, have you finished your homework, Mio?"

"Of course~ I finished my homework a few days ago when we came back from Hokkaido."

Just as Xi Mio was lying on the sofa, chatting leisurely with Sister Fanxia.

downstairs.

Because her relationship with Nozomi had become somewhat bad in recent times, Arisa had been absent-minded all day, but as the New Year passed, her mood also eased a lot.

After all, there is nothing that can't be solved by a little bit of practice. If there is, just do it a few more times.

Although the issue between her and Xi Mio had been resolved, she still had a large portion of her homework left to do.

This made the girl feel very distressed. She stayed in her room all day, doing her homework. The huge workload made her want to go upstairs to ask Xi Mio for help more than once.

But if that's the case, wouldn't it seem like she went out of her way to reconcile with him just to get Xi Mio's help with her homework?

"Ahhh-"

Even though Yashi was sitting in the living room, he could hear his daughter's helpless, furious and collapsed screams coming from the room.

……

The next day.

Early in the morning, Xi Mio got up, packed her schoolbag, and changed into her winter school uniform.

After preparing breakfast, he sat on the steps at the entrance for the first time in a long time and shouted towards the living room.

"Sister Fanxia~ I'm going to school!"

Then, he also heard Sister Fanxia in the living room respond.

"Be careful on the road~"

Then he picked up his schoolbag, walked out the door, and took the elevator downstairs.

Since Arisa had moved downstairs from his house, the two no longer needed to go to the tram to meet.

I saw Xi Mio coming to the door of Arisa's house and gently ringing the doorbell.

After a while, I heard footsteps, and someone came over and opened the door. What came into view was the expressionless and cute face of Boros.

After seeing that it was Xi Mio, she walked into the house without looking back, leaving Xi Mio standing at the door, wondering whether she should also go in and wait for Arisa.

While Xi Mio was hesitating, Alisa, who had changed her clothes and was holding a school bag, also came out.

But what puzzled the boy was that there were two dark circles under Arisa's pretty face, as if she didn't sleep well last night.

He didn't ask any more questions, but after Arisa put on her shoes, he went into the elevator with her.

Just as he was going downstairs, he heard the girl next to him yawning several times and sounded very sleepy.

Xi Mio couldn't help it anymore, so she asked.

"Arisa, did you sleep very late last night?"

"...That's not the case."

"Is that so? Then why do you look so listless?"

"Because I didn't sleep at all..."

"Eh?"

After hearing what Arisa said, Xi Mio was stunned. She didn't quite understand why she stayed up all night the night before school started.

So after they walked to the station and got on the train to school, Arisa leaned on Xi Mio's soft hair, which still had a slight scent of shampoo, without saying a word, and fell asleep.

"Hiss... Although I know there's a big height difference between us, it still feels so weird..."

Although there was no one else on the tram except the two of them so early in the morning, they still felt a little ashamed.

Xi Mio had no choice but to close her eyes and take a nap, imitating Arisa, so that time would pass faster.

It was not until they arrived at the school station that Hiro shook the soundly sleeping Alisa awake, and led the still dazed girl out of the train.

The thick snow on the streets showed no signs of melting.

The dry and cold air blowing in her face made Arisa sober up a little. She then sneezed and looked unwell.

Just as she took out a tissue from her schoolbag and wiped her face, she suddenly found that the hem of her clothes was pulled by someone.

She turned her head and looked at Xi Mio beside her, only to find that he had already taken off the scarf from around his neck and handed it to her.

"This is?"

"I'll put it on you. You've been staying up late and caught a cold. If it suddenly falls off during class, it will be terrible."

"..."

Although I know that Xi Mio gave me the scarf with good intentions, what he said always felt weird.

But she still took the scarf handed to her by Xi Mio and wrapped it around her neck.

In addition to blocking the cold wind from constantly seeping into the gaps in her collar, she could also feel the boy's residual warmth remaining on her scarf.

It seems like it feels pretty good...

Thinking of this, Arisa couldn't help but pull at her scarf, wrapping it a little tighter, as if she could still smell the scent of Xi Mio.

An inexplicable blush appeared on the fair and pretty face. Unfortunately, without his scarf, Xi Mio could only lower his head to prevent the cold wind from penetrating into his clothes through his collar, so he could not see what Alisa looked like.

Only when they walked into the school building did they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I don't know why, but it seems to be particularly cold here in Xijing this year."

"Eh? Wasn't it like this before?"

Hearing what Arisa said, Xi Mio, who was here for the first time, couldn't help but ask with some confusion.

"Of course not. In the past, even if there was snow in Xijing, it would only last for a day or two and then melt away. Xiao Mio, look, this year, even the temple fair was forced to be cancelled because of the snow."

Well... although she roughly guessed that it was because the Snow Girl herself was in Xijing that the probability of a snowstorm was greatly increased, it would be better not to say it out loud for now.

After changing into indoor shoes, the two returned to the classroom of Class A of Grade 1. The long-missed classroom and the familiar deskmate really made people miss them.

The two of them thought of this at the same time.

Author's words: School has started

Chapter 39 Returning to school life

"Arisa? Arisa! Wake up! The get out of class is over and it's time for lunch break. Hurry up and eat your lunch!"

Looking at Arisa who was still lying unconscious on the desk beside her, Xi Mio said helplessly.

But fortunately, after catching up on sleep for the whole morning, Arisa has managed to recover from the low health state to low health state, and has regained some energy.

Although she didn't know why, she slept for several classes and the teacher didn't notice her sleeping on the desk.

Xi Mio could only attribute the reason to the fact that the devil Alisa used a little trick to prevent the teacher from noticing that she was dozing off.

The girl next to him stretched hard, rubbed her eyes, and then took out the lunch box specially made by the cat maid from her schoolbag.

Xi Mio was no longer surprised by the luxurious-looking lunch box.

He didn’t know before that this bento was made by the cat-girl maid. He once thought that it was prepared by Alisa early in the morning and he ate it happily.
