My fiancée Yukino

"..."

After a few seconds of silence, Luo Bai turned to look at the exquisite face so close to his and asked, "Do you want to take a shower, or do something else?"

Yang Nai smiled and stuck out her tongue: "Anything is fine~~"

Before Luo Bai could answer, Shi Yu said, "Count me in if you're taking a shower. I was just thinking of changing my clothes."

After saying that, she took off her black pantyhose.

"I'm sweating a little."

Seeing this, Luo Bai knew that he had no choice but to take a bath.

And so, he carried Yang Nai upstairs, with Shi Yu following closely behind.

Seeing this, Shinobu Kocho shook her head helplessly and asked Yukino beside her, "What about us? Taking a bath isn't something that can be done in half an hour."

Looking at Hoshino Ai, whose cheeks were puffed out in frustration, Yukino chuckled and said, "You ate a bit too much today. Let's go for a run together. Mai, what about you?"

"Count me in."

After stretching her body, Mai said, "I'm going upstairs to change into some sportswear. I really need to get some exercise. I've been studying for exams these past few days and haven't had much time to exercise."

An hour later, the girls who went out for a run returned, and Luo Bai came downstairs at almost the same time after taking a shower.

Looking at Hino and Utaha, whose faces were rosy, Shinobu squinted and said, "You're... done taking a bath?"

Yang Nai had long since developed a thick skin. He walked over with a smile, sat down, and said, "Yeah, we're all done bathing. It's even more comfortable to take a bath together in winter, right, Shiyu?"

Shi Yu nodded, then walked over to the sleeping Xia Shi and Tina, and picked up the two little girls, one in each arm.

“I took them upstairs. Although the air conditioning was on, it’s still better to sleep in the room if they want to sleep.”

I initially thought the two girls were just a little sleepy, but I didn't expect them to fall asleep as soon as they got back.

After Shi Yu carried the two girls upstairs, Luo Bai checked the time and said, "It's 5:30. Let me start preparing dinner. What would you like to eat tonight?"

Yukino said, "Let's not eat too much tonight. Let's just have a simple hot pot, with less meat and more vegetables, and make the broth light."

Yukino's suggestion was met with unanimous approval. After eating all sorts of strong-flavored food all day in Tresson, it was definitely time to eat something light and simple.

"Hot pot? That makes things easy. You just finished running, so go take a shower first. We still have meat at home, but we're out of vegetables. I'll go out and buy some."

With his car keys in hand, Luo Bai prepared to head out.

Yang Nai followed Luo Bai, and the two of them went to the supermarket together.

They bought some vegetables and some high-quality beef and mutton, paid the bill, and quickly left the supermarket with their purchases.

As soon as they arrived at the parking lot, the two saw Hiratsuka Shizuka standing in front of the car with her arms around him.

"Oh my, Xiaojing? What are you doing here?"

Turning around, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at the two and said, "I knew I wasn't mistaken, it really is your car. Are you out shopping?"

Yang Nai laughed and said, "Yes, I just got back from the Thanksgiving in Teresa. I bought some ingredients to make hot pot at home. Xiao Jing, it's such a pity you had to attend some seminar, otherwise you could have come and had fun with us. Are you done with work now?"

"Yeah, it's over. I was just about to come here to get something to eat when I saw the car parked here."

Luo Bai and Yang Nai exchanged a glance and then suggested, "Hiratsuka-sensei, you haven't eaten yet either, right? How about we come over to our place and have some hot pot together? It'll be more fun with more people."

Upon receiving Luo Bai's invitation, Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was already quite familiar with him, naturally did not refuse and said with a smile, "Then I'll have to bother you. It is indeed a bit boring to eat alone."

So the two cars drove back to the villa area one after the other.

When everyone arrived, the others had also finished showering and were surprised to see Hiratsuka Shizuka's arrival.

Taking the ingredients from Luo Bai, Yukino looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka and asked, "Hiratsuka-sensei, how did the seminar go?"

"That's fine, since I have to come here every few months." Hiratsuka Shizuka took off her coat, revealing her curvaceous figure in a sweater, and shrugged helplessly. "But there's good news too. I'm getting a raise soon, and maybe in another year I'll be the head of the grade."

"That's really good news!"

Yang Nai happily took Hiratsuka Shizuka's arm and led her to the living room.

"Let's go, let's chat for a while, then we can eat soon!"

Volume 1: Chapter 503 Hot Pot (1/2)

Twenty minutes later, the hot pot will be ready, and we can start eating.

After bringing out all the dishes, Luo Bai went upstairs and brought Xia Shi and Tina downstairs.

After sleeping for a while, when Luo Bai opened the door, the two of them were already awake, but they still stayed in bed and were unwilling to get out. Luo Bai had to carry them downstairs.

When we arrived at the restaurant, everyone was already seated and waiting.

Hiratsuka Shizuka sat next to Haruno, looking at the photos and videos she had taken that day on her phone for Thanksgiving.

Seeing Luo Bai carrying two girls in each arm, she smiled and said, "You really spoil them. It looks like your children will be pampered to the extreme when they are born."

Luo Bai placed the two maids on chairs, shrugged, and said, "It's still a bit early, but I think it should be. Alright, let's eat."

The soup in the pot had already boiled, and everyone happily picked up what they wanted to eat and put it into the pot.

Although it's called a clear broth hot pot, it's not just plain water. They specially prepared broths like mushroom broth and corn and pork rib broth, and the taste was quite good.

After eating two slices of beef covered in sauce, Ping

Tsukasa Shizuka took a sip of beer, let out a comfortable sigh, and said, "Hot pot is still the best, but I'm home alone and I'm too lazy to make it."

Yang Nai said with a smile, "You really are lazy, but if you have time, just stay here with us. Don't worry, we won't charge you for food."

Hiratsuka Shizuka glared at Haruno and said irritably, "Then no need. It's fine to come over once in a while, I'm not a useless person who can't even cook for myself. Speaking of which, Mai has finished her exams, and her results should be out soon, right?"

Mai smiled and nodded: "Yes, it will be released at the end of the month. But after the exam, Yue-nee told me that she would keep an eye on it for me and would notify me when there is any news. I should know earlier than the official announcement date."

"That's really great, but you'll be going to Tokyo for school soon. Will you find it hard to adjust?"

Mai shook her head and chuckled, "No, that won't happen. It's quite convenient to come back. I'll practice flying on my broomstick during the holidays. Once I'm skilled, it'll only take me ten minutes to get back."

Hiratsuka Shizuka then remembered that everyone seemed to have learned magic, and she had met Elena before; she was indeed a very powerful witch.

As for Hiratsuka Shizuka herself, she didn't learn magic from Luo Bai and the others, but she did learn breathing techniques. After all, she preferred martial arts to magic, and her training was going quite well. Her body, which had gradually become tired from work in recent years, was slowly recovering.

As her health improved, Hiratsuka Shizuka's figure naturally became younger and better as well.

However, his fighting skills have also increased, so he still hasn't made much progress in blind dates.

When it came to practicing flying, the other girls also became interested.

Hoshino Ai said excitedly, "Brother Luo Bai, let's go to the base to practice flying tomorrow. Besides school, I'll be working more often from now on, and I want to learn to fly so that I can fly back quickly after I finish working in Tokyo!"

After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai said, "Sure, we don't have much to do tomorrow, Sunday, so let's go to the base. But in the afternoon, we might have to go to the orphanage in Chiba to house the Cursed Children. The new elementary school built for them will open in April, and then they can go to school with the ordinary children they've recruited."

Everyone agreed without any problem, since the children were all very lovable and would have a lot of fun playing with them.

Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded and said, "Could I be included among those cursed children?"

“Sure, then Mr. Hiratsuka, why don’t you come with us tomorrow morning? We’ll have lunch at the base, and then go to the orphanage together in the afternoon,” Luo Bai said with a smile. “Those children are all very smart. If nothing unexpected happens, many of them will take the entrance exam for Soubu High School when they go to high school. You might even be able to teach some of them in the future, Mr. Hiratsuka.”

Since Hiratsuka Shizuka had dinner and drinks at my house today, it wasn't really appropriate for her to drive home alone, so she had already decided to stay here for the night.

I've stayed here several times, and I'm quite familiar with Hiratsuka Shizuka.

After listening, Hiratsuka Shizuka put down her chopsticks and counted on her fingers.

"Those kids are only nine or ten years old now. When they go to high school... that'll be six or seven years from now. Tsk tsk, I hope I'll be married by then."

After saying that, Hiratsuka Shizuka picked up her glass and gulped down all the beer in it, letting out a burp.

"Continued Cup!"

Luo Bai smiled and shook his head, then opened another bottle of beer and handed it to Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"Although I'm still single now, I don't think it's likely that I won't be married in six or seven years, right?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's companion, Haruno, nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, that's unlikely. By the way, Shizuka, my family won't let me go on blind dates anymore. How about I ask my parents to introduce you to someone? Compared to your family, I think my parents are more reliable."

Yukino nodded in agreement: "That's right, Hiratsuka-sensei, your family... well, your aunt and uncle are definitely lacking when it comes to introducing potential partners."

Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't seem to mind. The two families had always had a good relationship; otherwise, as a teacher, she wouldn't have gotten along so well with her student, Haruno.

After pouring herself a beer, Hiratsuka Shizuka said, "Sure, then I'll trouble you. But now, I'm not as anxious as I was a year or two ago. I'll leave it to fate."

It's good to leave it to fate. It's true that mindset is very important. You can't rush these things.

After confirming tomorrow's activities, everyone continued to enjoy their meal.

Dinner didn't end until after 8 p.m.

After tidying up, everyone sat leisurely in the living room and watched a movie together on the large projector.

After watching the movie, it was already past ten o'clock, time to rest.

As for the little ones at home, they were already sleepy and went upstairs to rest around nine o'clock.

Yawning, Shinobu Kocho linked arms with Luo Bai and said, "I'm tired, I've had a lot of fun today, I need to rest."

Then, everyone went upstairs to wash up and rest.

After taking a shower, Luo Bai went to Shinobu Kocho's room.

Although Yang Nai dragged Luo Bai and Shi Yu into taking a bath together during the day in the afternoon, it didn't hinder Luo Bai's nightlife.

Volume 1: Chapter 504 Morning Training, Individual Preferences (2/2)

On Sunday morning, at seven o'clock, Luo Bai and Shinobu Kocho opened their eyes at almost the same time.

Leaning against Luo Bai's chest, Shinobu Kocho smiled and kissed Luo Bai on the cheek, looking at him and saying, "Good morning, Luo-kun, it's time to get up."

Luo Bai hugged Butterfly Ninja tightly and lingered for a while before getting up with her and leaving the room.

At this moment, besides Luo Bai and Shinobu Kocho, only two other people are up at home: Yukino and Kanao.

Both of them were used to waking up early, and they had already changed into their sportswear, holding two wooden swords, and were practicing sparring in the yard.

Of all the people, Yukino has been consistently practicing, and her swordsmanship has improved rapidly.

Although he hasn't actually used his skills, his level is already quite good, basically reaching the strength of a Class C swordsman in the Demon Slayer Corps, but he mainly lacks practical combat experience.

Seeing that Yukino has been persevering, Yukino is considering taking Yukino to the base more often when she has free time, and having her practice with some teammates to increase her combat experience.

Having ability but lacking experience is indeed a great pity.

Once Yukino has further mastered the swordsmanship she has learned, her strength should be able to improve further, at least reaching the level of a Rank B swordsman.

However, if you want to improve further, you need to improve your breathing techniques as well, which is not something that can be achieved in a short time.

In the courtyard, Yukino kept attacking, while Kanao calmly used her wooden sword to parry, easily blocking all the attacks.

"That's it."

Kanao gently pressed down the wooden sword in Yukino's hand and said softly, "Yukino-neechan, let's call it a day. It's about time."

Yukino nodded and wiped her forehead.

Sweat beaded on his forehead, he straightened up and said, "As expected, I still can't break through your defenses, Kanao."

Kanao put away the wooden sword and said, "Yukino-nee's foundation is already very good, but her flexibility is not good enough and can be improved further."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Luo Bai and Kanao standing at the door.

Good morning, sister and brother.

Luo Bai walked over with a smile and handed two towels to Yukino and Kanao: "Good morning, what time did you get up?"

Yukino took the towel and wiped herself, saying, "It's 6:30. I haven't been up for long. Even if it's only ten minutes of sparring, it will take a lot of energy."

After leading the two into the house, Luo Bai looked at Yukino and said, "Yukino, after breakfast, let's all go to the base together. I have an idea. Would you like to practice more with other opponents of different styles?"

"Real combat...?"

Within seconds, Yukino understood Luo Bai's thoughts. She did indeed lack practical experience, which made it difficult for her to fully utilize the damage she had lost.

Without any hesitation, Yukino agreed.

"No problem, I want to participate in the training!"

Shinobu looked at Yukino with surprise, then smiled and said, "In that case, let's go find Hinatsuru and the others later. The way ninjas fight requires a lot of energy to deal with, and it can put pressure on you. But before that, you should take a shower."

Yukino and Kanao nodded and went upstairs together.

Luo Bai and Kocho Shinobu didn't do any training. After a short run, they went to the kitchen together to prepare breakfast.
