A sense of resistance came, and Ayase Eli felt... something pressing down on her?

 Having just woken up, the girl's mind was blank. She moved her body slightly, and a peculiar feeling finally pierced through the hazy blur and struck her heart.

 The surroundings were warm.

 Ayase Eli sensed something was wrong; why did the blanket feel so heavy?

 They were all feeling suffocated by the pressure.

 She opened her eyes and took a closer look.

 Instantly, his two bright blue eyes widened in surprise!

 In front of me... is a shoulder!

 Eli Ayase was incredulous. She turned her head and saw a profile.

 Arashi Sanzenin's handsome face came into view, followed by Eli Ayase...

 The girl was instantly bewildered.

 This wasn't a blanket at all, it was a man, and...

 The man was fast asleep, but he grabbed her arm and even hugged her. Ayase Eli's mind went completely blank.

 She looked around blankly, her heart filled with overwhelming shock.

 What... what on earth is going on?!

 How did I end up here with him?!

 And... there were two of them...

 Eli Ayase could hardly imagine such a thing.

 Because she attended an all-girls school, Otonokizaka, she rarely interacted with boys, not counting the elderly teachers and security guards at the school. She had mixed feelings about it.

 Because I usually respect this person.

 And the person I respect is currently...

 This feeling is indescribable.

 Eli Ayase reached under the covers and touched herself, immediately blushing.

 I must... have become a woman by now, right?

 My mind went blank again, and I no longer wanted to think about it.

 It was at this moment that a flood of memories suddenly rushed into my mind.

 Eli Ayase recalled what had happened last night. First, she became very strange, and then she felt sleepy, so she simply lay down on the table and fell asleep for a while.

 Then... then...

 I was awakened by a noise, and then I saw...

 I actually did such a thing...

 Carefully moving away from the man's embrace, Ayase Eli broke free, her delicate feet touching the floor as she found her clothes...

 My panties are ripped...

 Ayase Eli clutched her skirt, completely unsure of what to do next...

 Someone...someone, please help me!

 ..

464. After Ayase Eli got up...

 Ayase Eli stood there, her cute face showing a hint of fear, unsure of what to do.

 She was very hesitant.

 His gaze wandered aimlessly, and just then, suddenly, the blanket in front of him bulged up.

 "Ha... Ah~"

 Tojo Nozomi stretched, her long hair cascading down her back like black pearls, though the ends were a little messy.

 "Nozomi..." Ayase Eli called out softly.

 "Shh...!" Nozomi Tojo made a shushing gesture, put her fingers in front of her and blew a breath, then picked up the clothes next to her and slowly put them on.

 Eli Ayase obediently shut her mouth...

 She watched her friend finish getting dressed.

 She tiptoed down and patted Eri on the shoulder.

 "...What exactly is going on?" Eli Ayase asked, bewildered.

 "Keep your voice down, Eri-chan," Nozomi Tojo whispered. "Don't wake him up."

 Eli Ayase immediately fell silent. She glanced at Arashi Sanzenin, who was sleeping comfortably, raised her eyebrows, and revealed a complicated expression.

 Ah, this man...

 Why? Why... why did it turn out like this?

 “Eri-chan.”

 "Huh?" Eli Ayase looked at her friend.

 Tojo Nozomi pursed her lips and pointed to the door.

 Eli Ayase instantly understood what she meant: Go outside and talk.

 She nodded, and the two of them quietly and slowly walked out of the room.

 After entering the living room, Nozomi Tojo turned around and carefully closed the door; the soundproofing in the luxury apartment was excellent.

 Eli Ayase was about to speak.

 "Wait for me, Eri-chan."

 The girl nodded.

 Nozomi Tojo turned and went into the room next door, and came out half a minute later.

 When she came out, Nozomi Tojo was holding a pair of panties in her hand. They were white with small lace trim and folded into a ball shape.

 Ayase Eli blushed slightly, then realized she was still in a vacuum and felt a little chilly.

 I instinctively squeezed my legs together.

 "Put this on first, I'll go get you a glass of water."

 Eli Ayase nodded and took the panties from Nozomi Tojo's hands.

 She heard the sound of water being poured into a cup. Eri unfolded her panties, pursed her lips, and seemed lost in thought.

 She sighed and lifted her leg... but at that moment, suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her, like an electric shock. Ayase Eli's body swayed, and she gasped in pain.

 She suddenly lost her composure.

 She walked to the sofa, sat down, lifted her feet to put on her panties, and rested her chin on her hands.

 Feeling... a sensation she had never experienced before, Ayase Eli couldn't help but laugh.

 A glass of water was placed in front of her.

 Without thinking, Eli Ayase picked up the cup and drank it down.

 She looked somewhat sullen, her head down, and she didn't say a word.

 Nozomi Tojo smiled.

 "Eri-chan, is there anything you want to say?"

 "..." Ayase Eli was silent for a while: "Nozomi, don't you feel anything?"

 Nozomi Tojo shook her head.

 "You've always been like this. Don't hesitate and stay where you are, because no matter what you do now, you can't change the facts, can you?"

 Hearing her friend's rather calm words, Ayase Eli pondered for a moment.

 That's true, but...

 "What's wrong with that?" Nozomi Tojo tried to comfort her friend: "Didn't Eri admire him a lot before?"

 Upon hearing this, Eli Ayase felt both annoyed and angry.

 “That’s right, Xiaoxi. It’s because I admire him so much that I’m so disappointed now. How could this happen…”

 As Ayase Eli spoke, her voice suddenly softened.

 "...There's nothing we can do about it." Tojo Nozomi said calmly, "Why are you thinking about this? Why don't we talk about solutions?"

 Eli Ayase raised her head, her eyes sharp.

 But then, Nozomi Tojo continued, "Does Eri know what problem we're facing right now?"

 Eli Ayase nodded, but then she shook her head.

 "I have no idea……"

 Seeing her friend's dejected look, Tojo Nozomi sighed inwardly.

 She also felt a bit confused. How did things turn out like that yesterday?

 This is utterly illogical! This isn't a TV drama. Tojo Nozomi is certain she's not some brainless, stupid, and idiotic "triple-A" woman; she couldn't possibly do something like this. It seems there's probably... something else going on.

 "Do you understand now?" Tojo Nozomi asked herself. The answer was naturally no. The breakthrough was the man sleeping in the room. She was certain he wasn't an ingrate.

 He shouldn't abandon a woman after starting a relationship, and this person is undoubtedly capable of doing so.

 Perhaps Ayase Eli doesn't know his background, but she does. Her grandfather also said that the members of this family are always true to their word, and what they say will never change.

 Thinking of this, Nozomi Tojo looked at Eli Ayase.

 She didn't know these things, and she couldn't say these things. Tojo Nozomi understood her friend, and she considered it carefully.

 "Eri-chan, now that things have already happened, leave it to me, shall we?"

 "Huh? This won't do."

 Eli Ayase couldn't accept those words for a moment. "When that guy gets up, I'm going to give him a good talking to!"

 Tojo Nozomi said with a wry smile, "I think he'll be just as confused as we are."

 "What?!" Eli Ayase's eyes widened in disbelief. "How dare he do this?"

 "Because it's unusual."

 "Abnormal...?"

 "Hmm." Tojo Nozomi tried her best to appear calm. "We're acting strangely, and so is he. If he really is that kind of person, would Eri respect him?"

 Eli Ayase shook her head...

 It's precisely because you're attracted that you develop respect for someone...

 ..

465. Eriri remained silent...

 Tojo Nozomi suddenly laughed.

 "And besides..." she said half-jokingly, "Don't you think it would be better if Eri stayed with me forever?"

 "Huh?" Eli Ayase blinked her eyes, clearly taken aback.

 "..." She looked at Tojo Nozomi, not quite understanding what she was saying at first, but then suddenly blushed and her eyes widened.

 "Xiao Xi, what are you saying?!"

 "Besides, being with this person makes the whole family feel more relaxed." Tojo Nozomi grabbed her friend's arm, giving her a sense of security.

 "This is a matter of feelings, isn't it?" Ayase Eli sighed inwardly.

 Even now, she was still filled with disbelief. She slowly sat up straight, and her facial features softened.
