Gensokyo Population Revitalization Plan

While cooling her body and mind with cold water, Mengmeng pondered how to bring Nana into the amusement park plan.

She already knows about the mislabeling of the invention, while Nana is completely unaware.

(If a good opportunity arises, perhaps we can use this unexpected event to do something...)

"Splash—"

As she was thinking things through, the bathroom door was suddenly pulled open. Mengmeng instinctively covered her body and looked towards the door. Her wary gaze turned extremely awkward after she saw who it was.

"Sister...brother-in-law..."

"Hey~ Mengmeng, did you sleep well last night?" Mu Huai walked into the bathroom casually, without even trying to hide himself.

The man's alluring body instantly made Mengmeng's face flush red. She stammered, moving backward until she was pressed against the wall: "Um... I'm taking a shower..."

"I know, that's why I came in to shower with you."

Remembering that he had smiled in her direction before taking a shower yesterday, Mengmeng felt she had found the answer. She said in a resentful tone, "Sister... no, Mu Huaijun, you realized I was in the room yesterday, didn't you?"

"Your invisibility grass has long been ineffective against me. Although I can't see you with the naked eye, I can roughly sense which direction you and Lala are in."

"Honestly, deliberately bullying girls is a bad habit." Mengmeng glared at him, feigning composure.

"I won't bother with girls I don't like."

He answered casually, then walked under the showerhead to rinse his body.

Mengmeng's heart raced at those words. Thinking she was hallucinating, she quickly asked, "Mu Huaijun, what did you just say?"

He raised his hand and gently tapped her on the head: "Go soak in the bathtub quickly, do you want to catch a cold if you take a cold shower first thing in the morning?"

"Oh..."

She turned around, quickly put her right hand behind her back to cover her bottom, and cautiously soaked into the bathtub filled with hot water, letting out a comfortable sigh: "Such a comfortable water temperature..."

After cooling down her initially hot body with cold water, she was then immersed in hot water again, which made her feel as if every pore on her body was opening up, and she even wanted to close her eyes and have a good sleep.

Out of the corner of her eye, Mengmeng caught a glimpse of Mu Huai's sturdy back, which was covered with large and small deep red hickeys. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.

"Mu Huai Jun, your back looks like a piece of meat that has been thoroughly inspected and certified."

"Two-thirds of it was left over from apricots. Her gluttonous nature hasn't changed even in this aspect; she always likes to bite or suck on something."

After soaking completely in the bathtub, Mengmeng wasn't so embarrassed anymore. Her eyes darted around, and she asked him, "I have some herbal ointment here that can quickly remove skin scars. Do you want some?"

He shook his head and refused: "No need, these marks are perfect for teasing Xingcai."

After washing himself, Mu Huai also soaked in the bathtub and sat facing Mengmeng.

Her shy gaze swept over his chest, then she bit her lower lip and asked, "Why were you able to sit down without hesitation?"

"Aren't we family? There's nothing wrong with family members taking a bath together, right?"

Looking at his feignedly innocent eyes, Mengmeng finally realized that he was a master of pretending to be confused, so she simply went all the way and straightened her two bent little feet toward the middle.

"Um!?"

"Hehe, although your tone is calm, your body language is quite suggestive~"

As if she had found Mu Huai's weakness, she revealed a devilish smile and launched a series of attacks. Her purple eyes were also covered with a thin mist of water vapor, shimmering with a captivating light.

Not to be outdone, he reached out and grasped the peach-shaped tail that had somehow wrapped around his right hand. The soft, elastic touch felt like squeezing a jelly.

"That...was a foul..."

"It was clearly Mengmeng who attacked my weakness first, so now that I'm catching you by the tail, we're even."

The two were locked in a struggle in the bathtub, neither willing to let go first.

Their "battle" only paused briefly when Lala's energetic voice accompanied her into the bathroom.

"Oh? I thought only Mu Huai was taking a bath inside. I didn't expect you to be here too, Mengmeng."

"Big sister...you're taking a bath too?"

Mengmeng greeted them somewhat awkwardly. Her weak body clearly didn't allow her to get out of the bathtub immediately, so she could only pretend that nothing had happened and quietly soak in it.

"After all, I sweated a lot last night, and Mu Huai likes to get his sweat on people, so I have to wash off the smell before I go home."

Lala didn't care about the two of them taking a bath together, and went to the shower head to hum a cheerful tune while taking a shower.

"Oh...I see." Taking advantage of her sister's inattention, Mengmeng lowered her voice and pleaded with Mu Huai, "How about we...a temporary truce?"

He didn't speak, but ran his fingertips lightly across the surface of her tail twice, and a sweet, coquettish moan immediately escaped her lips.

"Ah! Huh!??!"

"Mengmeng, what's wrong?"

"I...I accidentally bumped my toe, it's okay, big sister."

"Oh."

An angry Mengmeng continued to argue with Mu Huai until Lala rinsed off the foam, then leaped into the air, did a 360° spin, and sat upright in his lap.

The plug instantly connected to the socket.

"Big sister!?"

"Holy crap?"

"Huh???" Lala looked down in confusion: "Why am I sitting on Mengmeng's feet?"

"My dear sister, there are very complicated reasons behind this..."

"Knock knock!!" Bana saw Anja politely knocking on the door and asking, "Lala, Kiki-kun, are you taking a bath in there?"

"Sorry, Anzai, it's full."

"Oh, then I'll wait for you to come out."

After leaving the bathroom, she muttered to herself in confusion, "What does 'Manchu' mean?"

Volume 3, "The Loser, the Alien Sisters, and Gensokyo High School": Chapter 84 Nana: You've all been cheating on me, haven't you?

After waiting for about half an hour, Hanami saw Mengmeng, Lala, and Muhuai walk out of the bathroom, and her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in surprise.

Meanwhile, her long-abandoned, unresponsive "cat-stealing radar" was beeping.

"Mengmeng...you..."

Mengmeng knew that any explanation at this point would be like protesting too much, but she still wanted to fight for her innocence.

"Apricot, it's not what you think, I was just taking a bath in there!"

"Hmm..." Seeing that Anja remained silent, Bana turned to look at Lala, whose face was unusually flushed, before nodding and saying, "I believe you. You guys wait outside for a while. I'll take a shower and then we'll go home together."

"Ah."

On the bus back, Lala pulled Mengmeng to sit with her, giving up the chance to be alone.

As soon as the two sat down, Banai couldn't wait to grab Muhuai's arm. Although this was the first time in reality that she was taking the bus with him as a couple, she had already rehearsed it countless times in her mind.

Even through the two towering mountains, her slightly rapid heartbeat was still crystal clear, traveling up her arm to Mu Huai's ears. She raised her hand and gently pinched his waist: "Am I dreaming?"

He rolled his eyes in annoyance: "If I said it didn't hurt, would you think I was dreaming? Why don't you pinch someone else to test if it's a dream?"

"I... I'm also afraid of pain. If Lala hadn't been here yesterday, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to straighten my back today."

Recalling how she felt like a lone boat in a storm last night, Banai saw Anja say with lingering fear, "No wonder Lala said she needed help, I understand now."

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I'm not an alien."

She grunted twice, then poked his waist repeatedly with her fingertips: "I don't believe you! Tell me! What is your purpose in coming to Earth?"

“There’s nothing I can do now that you’ve figured it out…” Mu Huai suddenly put on a serious face and said, “Actually, I came to Earth to carry out a classified mission.”

"What mission?"

"Found someone."

"Who?"

"Hanami Anna".

"Ugh! I almost actually believed your nonsense."

When Banai saw Anja shyly punch his shoulder twice with her fist, a blush of shyness appeared on her face, and he felt as sweet as if he had drunk honey.

"How come I never realized you were so good at making girls happy?"

"Xingcai, why don't you think carefully about what you did besides eating when we were together?"

"..." She remained silent for a long time, then awkwardly turned her head away, unable to meet his gaze: "No... but things are different now, we're a couple, and I'll make it up to you later!"

"What exactly will the compensation be?"

"We'll see...we'll talk about it later!"

Noticing that Mu Huai's gaze lingered on her chest for a second or two, Yi Linqi Si-Qia Jiu<Jiu 8 Qun Ba Nai Jian An Nai jumped up from her seat as if her butt was on fire, and then switched places with Lala.

She was afraid that if she continued to sit next to him, she would only be forced to agree to even more outrageous demands.

......

When the group returned home, they learned from Nana that Remilia had left.

"She said she was tired of playing and that her brother-in-law couldn't be with her all the time, so she went back to find her head maid."

"Did she take the phone and the things she bought back with her?"

"Yes, we took them all, including the custom-made children's clothes that were delivered yesterday."

Mu Huai suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly asked, "Did she know that it was custom-made children's clothing?"

Nana proudly raised her chin: "She didn't know, but I figured it out, and then I used that to make fun of her."

Spicy!

He never expected that Nana would unwittingly betray him at such a time.

Afterwards, the promised stockings reward from Remilia at the Scarlet Devil Mansion will likely be gone, and it will probably become a choice between a whip, candles, or high heels as punishment.

"I just don't know if it's Sakuya coming or if she comes in person. If it's her... there might still be room for maneuver."

Mu Huai walked upstairs with a heavy heart, while Nana, watching the girls file into the living room, belatedly exclaimed, "Wait a minute! Didn't my brother-in-law go to work yesterday? Why are you all coming back with him this morning?"

"Sister, Anzu, what exactly is going on?"

"Don't rush, Nana." Mengmeng walked up to her with a "victorious" smile that annoyed her, and handed her the souvenir pendant she had bought at the amusement park yesterday: "I invited you before I left yesterday, but you insisted on playing a game with Miss Remilia."

"Huh? You only asked me if I was going out, but you didn't say I was going with my brother-in-law!"

"Is that so? Sorry, I forgot~"

Nana clenched her fists in annoyance: "You, you definitely did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"That's not true~" Mengmeng narrowed her eyes slightly, smiling like a cunning fox, "I just feel sorry for you."

Even though she knew she was being deliberately led astray, Nana couldn't help herself and took two steps back warily: "What's the pity?"

"My brother-in-law was amazing last night. The warmth and strength in his hands made me tremble. It's a shame you didn't witness it in person."

"Hmph! I knew you'd tell such dirty jokes, but don't forget, my sister and Anzu are right here. Your lie is exposed so easily, isn't it?"

Nana's question received no response, and Bana chuckled dryly at Anzu: "Um... I suddenly remembered I still have clothes to wash at home, I'll go back first!"

"I...I still have a new invention to finish, so I'm going upstairs too!"

The two people's reactions made Nana's heart skip a beat.

It seems that everything Mengmeng said was true, without any hint of fabrication.

She immediately pressed her sister against the wall and asked in a stern voice, "What exactly did you two do yesterday?"

Mengmeng gestured towards the commemorative pendant in her hand: "Where do you think you bought that pendant?"

"Amusement park?"

"That's right, congratulations on getting it right!"

"You two went to the amusement park behind my back?"

"Hmm~"

Nana took a deep breath, and the anger in her eyes vanished instantly. She wasn't provoked by the provocation; instead, she calmed down, released Mengmeng, and glared at her fiercely: "I'll settle the score with you later!"

After saying that, she walked straight upstairs, the wooden stairs creaking and making one wonder if they would break under her feet at any moment.
