Nomiyama looked at the table full of food, suppressed his appetite, and looked up: "Eriri, where's Haruno?"

Eriri Sawamura pulled up a chair and sat down: "I said I was going to buy you some blood-nourishing medicine."

"Oh." Nomiyama stepped outside. "You guys eat first, I'll go get her."

"Whatever." Eriri Sawamura replied casually, too lazy to pay him any attention, and simply picked up her chopsticks to start eating.

Yukino Yukinoshita watched him leave, broke her chopsticks apart, picked up a piece of fish and put it into her lunchbox. She asked a question: "Eriri, do you really want me to break up with him?"

Eriri Sawamura swallowed the food in her mouth without looking at her, and continued to pick up food with her chopsticks: "Just like you said before, 'I will come back to you sooner or later.' I know that even if you leave, it will only be for a short time, but a short time is enough."

"In fact, only in this way can I have a chance to surpass you."

Looking at Eriri, who had changed so much, Yukino looked at her with a hint of inquiry in her eyes: "Eriri, is it okay for you to tell me like this?"

Eriri Sawamura chewed and swallowed, then looked at her with a grin, her mouth still greasy.

"What are you thinking, Yukino? Being jealous of you is one thing, wanting him to like you the most is another, but liking you is yet another."

“We’re best friends, so why would I hide anything from you? As for that jerk, I’ll kick him to the curb once I’m done with him.”

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Eriri's vivid expression, a gentle smile blooming on her lips. She lowered her head, picked up a piece of chicken, and put it into her lunchbox.

"I see."

"But Eriri can't possibly stop liking him, can she?"

Eriri Sawamura's tone was playful: "That's true, so be careful not to give me any openings, or I won't be polite."

Yukino Yukinoshita swallowed her food, slightly puzzled: "Eriri, aren't you bothered by the problems around him?"

Eriri Sawamura chewed and chewed: "It's not that I don't care, it's that I can't change him. From my point of view, it's impossible for him to separate from you. I can't turn back time either. All I can do now is to win more of his favor."

"At least the three of us are still together, aren't we?"

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at the white rice in her lunchbox: "How did we end up running into him..."

"Then you're giving up? Or going out to relax? It's okay, don't worry, I'll take good care of him."

"Eri, don't talk while you're eating. You're a lady from a noble family."

“You learned bad habits from him.”

"He has changed."

......

Standing downstairs at the hospital building, Nomiyama yawned, felt the autumn breeze, and then silently crossed his arms.

He didn't feel anything physically, but perhaps because he had lost a lot of blood in the afternoon, he felt that the weather was a bit cold.

What are you doing outside?

Yukino walked up to him from the hospital entrance, looking at him with his arms crossed, slightly annoyed.

"Waiting for my girlfriend to go to work." Nomiyama turned and walked into the hospital building, heading towards the elevator.

"What job? When did I start working at a hospital?" Yukinoshita Haruno walked up to him.

"The class my girlfriend was in." Nomiyama pressed the elevator button, leaned against the elevator, and looked at her. "What did you buy?"

"Pork liver porridge, duck blood soup." Yukinoshita Haruno reached into the convenience bag, took out the duck blood soup and chopsticks, and handed them to him. "Eat them, it's good to warm up."

"Hmm, I'm really hungry." Nomiyama took the food, opened the disposable food box, and, not caring whether it was hot or not, took a big gulp of soup.

"Hungry? Where's Eriri? Didn't she go to the cafeteria to get food?" Yukinoshita Haruno frowned.

Nomiyama picked at the duck blood, chewed, and swallowed: "They're eating upstairs. I wanted to come find you first."

"Oh? Not waiting for you?"

"I let them eat first. Everyone was hungry, there was no need."

"Letting an injured person go downstairs? Yukino is becoming less and less lovable."

"Who can argue with that?"

"So, boyfriend, what's up?"

Nomiyama threw the empty box into the trash can and stepped into the elevator.

He pressed the button for the fifth floor and looked at Yang Nai who followed him in, his tone slightly helpless: "You clearly don't want to part with her, so why do you have to say those hurtful things?"

Yukino Yukinoshita leaned against the elevator, remained silent for a while, then looked up at the two people reflected above the elevator: "It's a long-suppressed emotion, an instinctive release of feelings."

Nomiyama also looked up, then met her gaze from above: "That will only make both of us uncomfortable."

Then Yukino asked about something else: "And what about you? When Yukino said she hated you, what were you thinking?"

Nomiyama answered quickly: "I suddenly didn't want to take that blow anymore."

"I see." Yukinoshita Haruno lowered her head and stepped out of the open elevator door. "Don't worry, boyfriend. She and I are like sisters. Some things will become clear once we talk about them. Don't worry."

"Oh." Nomiyama stepped out of the elevator.

He walked down the corridor, looked at the person in front of him, and said, "Actually, there's something else I want to tell you."

Yukinoshita Haruno didn't turn around: "Hmm? You tell me."

"You're not just those fleeting moments of affection; fleeting moments of affection can't pry open the door between me and Yukinoshita."

Yukino stopped in her tracks, watching him walk past her and then stand in front of the ward waiting for her.

So that's how it is. So that's why you kept it in mind when I said I only received a little bit of affection.

"Hehe, brother-in-law/boyfriend, ditch Yukino and come to my side. Big sister tastes better than little sister."

After saying that, Yukinoshita Haruno proudly puffed out her chest.

Nomiyama ignored her and pushed open the door to enter the ward.

He walked quickly a few steps and sat down in his seat.

The reason I was sure it was my spot was because my lunchbox was piled high with chicken, duck, and fish, while the chicken, duck, and fish in the other lunchboxes had already been eaten.

He lowered his head and quietly ate his food.

"Don't run away, brother-in-law/boyfriend, I think my suggestion is good."

Yukino Yukinoshita walked into the ward, completely ignoring the gazes of the other two, and only looked at the person who was eating heartily with their head down.

Receiving no response, she didn't bother to care and simply shrugged and walked to her seat.

She took two steps, looked at the dining table, and froze.

Why are there only green vegetables left?

......

Nomiyama checked the movement behind him and, finding no one, leaned closer and whispered, "Eriri, what did you and Yukinoshita talk about?"

Eriri Sawamura glanced behind her, then leaned closer and whispered, "We didn't talk about anything, just... told Yukino how much I like her?"

Nomiyama frowned: "What do you mean, 'how much you like her'? Aren't I number one?"

Eriri Sawamura sneered: "Heh, you stinky second son."

"I'm your boyfriend, what are you doing?"

"Can't your boyfriend be number two? No, you're number three, and Mom is number one."

Nomiyama nudged her: "It should at least be higher than Yukinoshita, right? Wouldn't third place be too low?"

Eriri Sawamura kicked him, her voice sharp with malice: "No, you can only rank third."

Nomiyama gasped, "Hiss, if you make any friends in the future, will I end up being ranked fourth?"

Eriri Sawamura seemed to remember something: "Oh right, Megumi, Megumi is third, and you're fourth."

Nomiyama fell silent.

Eriri Sawamura seemed to remember something and changed her lines again: "No, no, you don't deserve to be fourth. There's also Mai. You should be fifth."

"You're not going to put Yang Nai ahead of me in line later, are you?"

"No way, Yang Nai will definitely be last in line. Ha, you sly fox."

"You really have a strict hierarchy here..."

"That's called having clear likes and dislikes."

Yukino glanced at the two people whispering in front of her, and her eyelids twitched.

Am I the one who stole the fish? Wasn't I the first one there?

Yukino glanced at her sister, unsure what to say, and simply walked on quietly.

"What? Don't know what to say?" Yukinoshita Haruno looked away and turned to her younger sister beside her. "Just say what you want to say. It's so troublesome to always try to guess what you're thinking."

Yukino Yukinoshita was silent for a moment, then said, "I still don't know what to say."

“Be bold, there’s nothing you can’t ask. ‘Does my sister really hate me?’ What’s so hard about asking that?” Yukinoshita Haruno smiled. “It’s just a matter of getting one answer anyway, so I won’t hide it from you.”

Yukino Yukinoshita's lips moved slightly, but she ultimately remained silent.

"You noticed it, so you didn't dare to face it. Yukino, you really don't seem like a member of the Yukinoshita family. If it were me, I would definitely respond with equal hatred, no matter who it was."

Yukino Yukinoshita murmured.

"Silly little sister."

Yukino Yukinoshita was slightly startled when her wrist was grabbed and looked at her older sister who was approaching.

Forehead to forehead, azure against azure, autumn wind blowing through long and short hair.

Yukinoshita used her free hand to pinch her younger sister's cheek, pulling on that soft flesh, laughing softly, her voice gentle as well.

"No one says that love can't outweigh hate."

Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes widened.

......

Nomiyama pushed open the door and stretched: "I'm back."

Welcome home.

Hearing the sounds from the living room, Nomiyama wasn't surprised. He simply put on his slippers and walked over there, saying to the people behind him, "You guys take a shower first, I'll go make some milk tea, so we can drink it after we're done showering."

After taking a few steps, Nomiyama met Kei's gaze and pointed to the kitchen: "Want to come along, Kei?"

Kato Megumi glanced at the person behind him, then ignored him and simply got up to follow him: "Okay."

"Wow, they're a young couple."

Yukino Shino gave a sarcastic remark and stepped into the house.

Anyway, she just wanted to disgust the two people behind her.

"Megumi, put more sugar in my cup." Eriri Sawamura walked into the house, ignoring Haruno's words.

"My less sugar." Yukino Yukinoshita didn't care about her sister's antics; she just thought a little more about it as she went inside.

For example, he seems to have had a habit of drinking milk tea at night since junior high school, but he hasn't really studied it much. It looks like he needs to learn a little bit about it.

Taking a step, Yukino Yukinoshita walked up the stairs, preparing to go to his bedroom.

There are his stored envelopes and letters, as well as the gifts and books they exchanged over the years; it's a good place to pass the time.

Yukino Shino slowed her pace slightly, waiting for her younger sister to catch up. When they were side by side, she nudged her with her elbow and said, "I heard him say that Yukino has many sealed letters with him?"

Yukino Yukinoshita stopped in her tracks; she suddenly didn't want to go anymore.

Eriri Sawamura, who was waiting on the other side, immediately reached out and grabbed her, displaying the gentle demeanor of a well-bred young lady: "Yukino, we are best friends, it's only right that we share secrets."

Yukinoshita grabbed the other wrist and smiled.

“We are dearest relatives and friends, like brothers and sisters.”

......

Kato Megumi heated the milk, then turned to look at him, who had changed his clothes: "Kazehaya, is everything resolved?"

Nomiyama took a large container from the kitchen cabinet, poured the filtered black tea into it, and replied, "Hmm, about right?"

Kato Megumi noticed his relaxation and placed the milk beside him, saying, "I see."

Nomiyama turned to look at her and began to complain, "Yukinoshita went too far. She kept slashing me with a knife."
