Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　As for Erina and the others, I'll need your help taking good care of them. Although it's hot in summer, it's also a peak season for colds, so remember to cover yourself with a blanket at night.

　When Bai Yuan stood up to see him off, Nakiri Senzaemon simply waved his hand slightly to let him sit down, then strode towards the outside of the villa, as if afraid that the other party would try to persuade him to stay.

　Although the person drunk in the courtyard was his granddaughter, he trusted Bai Yuan's character. Besides, the three of them were already a couple, and all the things that should and shouldn't have happened had already happened, so he didn't need to waste his energy on internal conflicts.

　At this moment, Bai Yuan stood at the entrance of the villa, watching Nakiri Senzaemon leave, and only turned back when he could no longer see him.

　"Each of them, they clearly can't hold their liquor, yet they've gotten this drunk. Getting drunk after just one bottle of beer, isn't that a bit too weak? Not a single one of them is easy to deal with!"

　Looking at the girls lying haphazardly in the courtyard, Bai Yuan sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

　If it weren't for the fact that everyone present was incredibly good-looking, and even their drunken state was adorable enough to make you want to hug them, he would absolutely not have wanted to clean up this mess for them.

　!

　"Brother Bai Yuan... I really like you so much..."

　The first person to be dealt with was Alice Nakiri.

　The girl lay on the table, breathing evenly, her mouth slightly open as if drool was dripping from the corner of her mouth, and she kept murmuring Bai Yuan's name, expressing her affection in her dream in a charmingly innocent way.

　"Then let your favorite Bai Yuan carry you back to your room, but please, don't throw up on me."

　Seeing this scene, Bai Yuan originally wanted to say a few words of criticism, but now he had no such thoughts at all. While talking, he picked up Nakiri Alice in a coaxing tone.

　"Hehe, okay..."

　Alice Nakiri's voice was muffled, a characteristic of drunkenness, as she spoke without thinking.

　Looking at her like this, Bai Yuan couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little nose. He thought she was quite cute, a stark contrast to her usual appearance.

　Soon, Bai Yuan opened the door to Nakiri Alice's room and threw her heavily onto the bed.

　As her body touched the soft bed, Alice Nakiri wore a satisfied expression, her limbs clinging tightly to the blankets like an octopus.

　"Brother Bai Yuan, you can't escape now!"

　He was still muttering incoherently, whether it was drunken ramblings or sleep talking, clearly mistaking the bedding in front of him for Bai Yuan.

　Otherwise, they wouldn't be holding on so tightly.

　Bai Yuan stood in front of the bed, looking at the slightly open collar of Nakiri Alice, revealing a stunning glimpse of white beneath, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.

　Five minutes later, Bai Yuan left the room, his face filled with a satisfied expression.

　Although we are an old married couple and have had many in-depth conversations, it is still strangely exciting to tease each other without the other's knowledge!

　Fortunately, Alice Nakiri didn't know, otherwise she would definitely call him a pervert!

　Of course, it's also possible to feign reluctance while secretly being overjoyed; based on past experience, this is highly likely.

　"Making a respectable man like me do this kind of thing, really..."

　Looking at the girls lying drunk in front of him, many of whom were already in a relationship with him, but many more were not, it would be very impolite to make a move on them rashly.

　However, considering their usual way of getting along, although they haven't officially become a couple, it's almost the same as being in a relationship. All it takes is a confession to win them over.

　Moreover, he had subjected them to many harsh punishments during their daily training, so his current act of feigning modesty was simply disgusting.

　Having figured this out, Bai Yuan bent down and expertly picked up Mito Ikumi, who was lying on the table, while a hint of confusion appeared on his face.

　Was this guy dressed that scantily clad just now?

　With her arm touching her skin, she could clearly feel the other person's body temperature, and Mito Ikumi unconsciously let out a soft moan because of this warmth.

　Her body writhed slightly from the way she was being held, and her wheat-colored cheeks flushed red, making her look very cute.

　However, Bai Yuan didn't care about these things at the moment. What he cared about was Mito Ikumi's previous attire. In his memory, she should have been wearing a coat.

　"It's so hot, I'm taking my clothes off!"

　Just as Bai Yuan's thoughts were drifting away, wondering why this guy suddenly had one less piece of clothing, he heard Mito Ikumi's distressed mutterings in his ear.

　Then the girl's body began to twist more violently, and her hands started to wave around restlessly, immediately drawing Bai Yuan's attention back.

　Just as he was about to try to steady Mito Ikumi, he was caught off guard and didn't even have time to stop her from tearing open her sash, and then carelessly tossing it to the ground because she found it troublesome.

　"this..."

　Looking at the scene before her, Mito Ikumi, who was being held in his arms, finally showed a relaxed expression after untying her bra straps. She leaned more fully against him, her hands tightly wrapped around his neck, as if she felt the cold.

　That's normal; anyone would feel cold in that state.

　"If a third person saw this, no matter how I explained it, they probably wouldn't believe that I didn't do anything."

　I wonder what Little Meat Charm will think when she wakes up tomorrow and sees me like this. She'll probably think I took liberties with her.

　He opened the door to Mito Ikumi's room, led her to the soft bed, covered her with a blanket to keep her warm, and picked up the underwear from the yard, folded it neatly, and placed it by her bedside so that she wouldn't have trouble finding her clothes when she woke up the next day.

　Before leaving, Bai Yuan had many thoughts running through his mind. He then stopped, turned around, and returned to her, gently pinching her chin with his hand.

　In this situation, there's bound to be a misunderstanding!

　Since that's the case, let's just let the misunderstanding be true, that way he won't lose out!

　The thought crossed Bai Yuan's mind: the girl's figure was alluring, and at this moment she was completely naked, revealing everything she possessed.

　It's safe to say that no man could remain unmoved upon seeing this.

　However, Bai Yuan only glanced at it a few times with a complicated expression before turning around and leaving the room.

　It's not about being pretentious, it's just that the relationship between the two is not...

　That's enough to make him do something like that.

　Mito Ikumi wasn't his girlfriend after all; their relationship was more like that of master and apprentice. It would be too beastly of him to make a move on her directly.

　It's not too late to do this after we officially start dating. Given how much Mito Ikumi likes him, she'll probably confess to him soon.

　Of course, everything needs to be done step by step.

　Although Mito Ikumi had a high level of affection for him, he could easily scare people away by doing some outrageous things.

　As a teacher, he must maintain his aloof demeanor and wait until Mito Ikumi is completely smitten before revealing his true self.

　This stark contrast is what makes it so irresistible!

　As he pondered this, Bai Yuan couldn't help but hum a cheerful tune.

　"Teacher Bai Yuan."

　Just then, a slightly sweet call pulled him back to reality, and soon he found Kikuchi Sonoka waiting at the villa entrance.

　The other person was holding a beautifully wrapped bouquet of red roses. When she saw his gaze, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and then she jogged over to him.

　"How did you come."

　Looking at the Kikuchi Enka in front of him, Bai Yuan's expression showed a hint of surprise, clearly not expecting her to appear here.

　"Can't I come?"

　Seeing Bai Yuan's surprised expression and hearing his question, Mujichi Yuanguo immediately looked aggrieved, then blinked her eyes and looked at him pitifully, as if she had been treated unfairly.

　"I never said anything like that. You just didn't tell me you were coming so I could have come and pick you up."

　Seeing Kikuchi Sonoka's aggrieved little face, and thinking that he hadn't taken her with him when he went to China, and that she must be feeling a little lonely in Japan, Bai Yuan felt a pang of guilt and gently hugged her.

　"Is this flower for me?"

　As he hugged her, he accepted the flowers from Kikuchi Sonoka. Bai Yuan's face showed surprise; in his memory, this was the first time he had ever received flowers from a girl.

　He's the one who usually drives them...

　"Of course, boys also have the right to receive flowers. This is a gift from me to you."

　After the hug ended, Kikuchi Sonoka's face turned slightly red. She then handed over the flowers in her hand, tilting her head and revealing a bright smile.

　"Thank you."

　It's said that girls are more attractive when they tilt their heads at a 45-degree angle, a statement that Bai Yuan used to find utterly ridiculous.

　But now, seeing it with his own eyes, his suddenly accelerated heartbeat confirmed his belief.

　The girl, who specially prepared flowers for him and smiled at him with her head tilted at a 45-degree angle as the breeze blew, appeared innocent and beautiful.

　"Don't be so polite with me. You've given me so many flowers, and I'm only giving you one now. If you like them, I'll bring you a bouquet every time we meet from now on."

　Seeing Bai Yuan's moved expression, Mujichi Sonoka was clearly a little surprised, so she raised her hand and waved it in mid-air, speaking with a smile in her eyes.

　"After I settle them in, you go to your room and wait for me."

　Looking at the girls lying haphazardly in the courtyard, Bai Yuan spoke to Mujichi Yuanguo.

　The villa also has a room prepared for Kikuchi Sonoka, but this guy doesn't come often. Now that he's here, we naturally have to pamper him a bit to quell the raging fire burning inside him!

　"Let me help too. Two people are always faster than one."

　Kikuchi Sonoka spoke as she walked over to the drunken Erina Nakiri, helped her up from the ground, supported her arm with her shoulder, and placed her hand on her waist.

　"I'm not drunk..."

　Suddenly being manipulated like this, Erina Nakiri murmured as if in a dream, while her body struggled violently, causing Sonoka Kikuchi to lose her balance and almost fall to the ground.

　"Leave Erina to me. You take care of Megumi and the others. Those guys won't go on a drunken rampage."

　Seeing this, Bai Yuan quickly caught Kikuchi Sonoka's body and pulled Nakiri Erina, who was being held by her waist, into his arms.

　"Okay, leave it to me. There won't be any problems this time!"

　Seeing this, Kikuchi Yoko couldn't help but smile awkwardly, clearly embarrassed that she hadn't done a good job.

　"Don't worry about it. Erina has boundless energy and doesn't like being touched by others casually, especially when she's drunk. It's normal for her to be subconsciously wary."

　As Bai Yuan spoke, he raised his hand and gently patted Erina Nakiri's back, then picked her up in a princess carry and held her firmly in his arms.

　Nakiri Erina, still half-asleep from being drunk, felt the movement beneath her and her eyelids twitched slightly. After confirming that the person who had picked her up was Shiro, a relieved expression immediately appeared on her face.

　After that, she not only stopped struggling, but also adjusted to a comfortable position in Bai Yuan's arms, revealing a contented expression.

　The evening breeze was chilly, and the alcohol made her feel hot, but because of her slender figure, Erina Nakiri was still a little cold. Now, Shirabuchi's warm embrace was just right.

　Beside her, Kiko watched this scene, recalling the moment she had her arm around Erina Nakiri's waist, and the feeling she had...

　His reaction was so strong that he couldn't help but purse his lips.

　"You feel much better now, don't you?"

　Seeing the girl's contented expression, Bai Yuan reached out and smoothed her hair, then carried her back to the room, placing a kiss on her forehead.

　At the same time, Kikuchi Sonoka also brought Tadokoro Megumi into the room. The two worked together and quickly dealt with all the girls in the yard.

　"I'm so tired. I did a lot of exercise. I'm sweating so much and I smell really bad. I'm going to take a shower."

　Feeling the heat emanating from her body, Kikuchi Sonoka stretched out her clothes, letting her ample breasts sway, before preparing to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

　She didn't want to be with Bai Yuan smelly, as that might make him disgusted, which was an outcome she absolutely couldn't accept.

　"No need, in fact, this is just right."

　Seeing that Kikuchi was about to leave, Bai Yuan reached out and grabbed her wrist, while leaning his head closer and taking a deep breath with a look of ecstasy on his face.

　"What do you mean by 'just right'?!"

　Seeing Bai Yuan's expression, Kikuchi Sonoka blushed, then asked a question with her answer in mind, her eyes sparkling with shyness.

　"Of course, it's just the right taste, it's really amazing! That subtle, contradictory feeling, like sea salt milk foam, with a hint of sweetness wrapped in a slightly salty and crystal clear texture."

　Bai Yuan closed his eyes, looking intoxicated, while constantly twitching his nose to smell the aroma.

　The rising body temperature after exercise made the scent even more vivid, like butter melting in the sun, warmly seeping into his nostrils.

　"Your description is so embarrassing."

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Kikuchi Sonoka's face visibly flushed, and her body felt a tingling sensation as if she were being electrocuted.

　"You feel ashamed now? There's more to come that'll be even more embarrassing!"

　Seeing Kikuchi Sonoka's shy and timid appearance, Bai Yuan's face revealed a hint of excitement. This was the expression he wanted to see!

　"Even more shameful..."

　Kikuchi Sonoka gasped softly, then was swept up in Bai Yuan's arms, who lifted her slightly higher while taking deep breaths in front of her.

　An epic lung-breaking experience.

　The sea salt milk foam has a subtle sweetness with an occasional hint of tartness, like the fruity acid that bursts out when you bite into a wild cherry—a fleeting sensation.

　However, it is precisely this slight sourness that makes people want to explore it more deeply.
