Uneasy daily life

Shoko Makinohara was staring straight at her with her round eyes wide open.

"When a child is tired, they should go to sleep quietly. Do you want me to tell you a bedtime story? I don't know how to, you can search for one online..."

"Between my fiancée and my girlfriend, who do I have a better relationship with?"

Makinohara Shoko asked.

"?"

Koga Tomoe paused for a moment, taking it as a child's slight jealousy, patted the other's forehead, and joked, "Of course, your fiancée is closer. Go to sleep, senpai's little fiancée."

"..." Shoko Makinohara blinked and said softly, "If Sakuta has a girlfriend, he won't be too heartbroken even if he loses his fiancée, right?"

"what?"

Koga Tomoe was a little confused. Are kids these days so imaginative? What do you mean by not having a fiancée? Are you going to play house and call off the engagement?

"Well……"

Before she could answer, Makinohara Shoko suddenly shrank deeper into the blankets, covering half her face, and blinked her eyes twice: "...What if I don't want to give Sakuta to you?"

Koga Tomoe was speechless for a moment, then decisively used her adult privilege and patted the other's head again: "What are you thinking, little kid? Go to sleep."

My senior and I were just pretending to be a couple, so why are some young girls jealous of us? That's strange.

"Um……"

Shoko Makinohara closed her eyes and said softly, "Sakuta worked really hard, remember to praise him for me."

"Yes, yes, yes... Senior is clearly a very mean-spirited guy, yet he said my butt feels good underfoot. I didn't expect it to be so popular with kids."

When Koga Tomoe thought back to their first meeting, her senior was taking care of a lost little girl... Hmm, there's a very high possibility that her senior is a lolicon?!

……

……

At the zoo, Azusagawa Kaede looked at the small animals with curiosity and excitement, followed the others up the road, explored different areas, and made her way to the top of the mountain.

Making a movie? How will it be filmed? Will we see the Panda Warrior and Bell Cat?

Kaede looked around, her anxiety about her brother not being around gradually fading as she played, turning into joy and anticipation.

Yukino Yukinoshita held her left hand, Yui Yuigahama held her right hand, and Hachiman Hikigaya, carrying snacks and drinks, followed slowly behind, wondering when he could go to the zoo with Komachi...

"Huh? There's a police cordon here."

Yui Yuigahama looked at the police tape that had been put up on a small road. She stared at the words on it, her expression strange, and said, "There's a bad cat inside. Trespassers will be killed..."

"How could a cat be bad?" Azusagawa Kaede puffed out her cheeks.

Hachiman Hikigaya remarked, "For the captain, cats have always been bad, haven't they?"

"Although Shirakami's feline phobia has been cured, he's still not very affectionate towards cats, and cats aren't very affectionate towards him either." Yukino Yukinoshita stepped across the cordon without changing her expression. "It seems like Shirakami is filming up ahead. Let's hurry over there."

The group crossed the cordon and walked up the mountain along the path carved out by the stone slabs. After passing through a well-greened forest with few wild animals, they soon saw a group of people carrying various equipment ahead.

The group quieted down and moved closer in silence.

After passing through the woods, the scenery suddenly opened up before us. Looking out from this cliff, our view stretched to the horizon, and from above, the scenery in all directions came into view.

A man and a woman stood not far from the cliff. The man looked weary and somewhat dejected, his expression devoid of joy or sorrow, yet exuding an air of world-weariness. The woman was in her prime, her smile gentle and sweet, naturally drawing people in. The two looked at each other, seemingly speaking to each other.

"Are they bad guys and that older sister?"

Kaede Azusagawa still has some impression of Mai Sakurajima.

"Let's go over there, don't disturb the filming..."

Before Yukino Yukinoshita could even finish speaking, her expression froze.

The woman raised her hand to hug him, pulled him close, tilted her head back, touched him with her toes, pressed her body against his, and kissed him.

Yukinoshita Yukino: “?”

Chapter 85 Of all the heroes under heaven, only Yingyi is worthy of mention!

Kissing scene!

A kind of separation agent between couples, an obstacle that actors can't overcome if they want to fall in love!

Whether male or female, when actors are paired up, they inevitably have to consider this cruel question—what if the other person wants to film a kissing scene? Generally speaking, this is indeed part of the job, and theoretically it is a legitimate dedication to art!

In reality, watching your lover kiss someone who isn't you, while this scene is filmed and recorded by the entire crew and projected onto a big screen, where it can be seen by anyone at any time, is like being slapped on the head by a minotaur...

Reason and emotion are locked in a fierce battle; I'm pressing my scalp down and rubbing it frantically.

I feel a bit sour and unhappy, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Yukino Yukinoshita stood rooted to the spot, her gaze icy as she stared at the two on set, radiating a chilling aura. Yui Yuigahama and Hachiman Hikigaya's faces twitched violently, instinctively pulling away slightly, fearing an imminent bloodbath. Yui frantically looked around, her thoughts in disarray, while Hachiman remained calmly silent, lest he get splattered with blood. Kaede Azusagawa, on the other hand, stared wide-eyed, curiously and shyly at the kissing scene… Is filming… filming movies really this amazing?

To be honest, he admitted to this messy relationship, but admitting it doesn't mean he admits everything! Normally, everyone keeps to themselves, except for a certain twisted older sister. They usually don't pay attention to what intimate things Bai Jun does with other people. They feel a bit like "out of sight, out of mind." Bai Jun isn't the type to dance in such a minefield, so having several girlfriends doesn't really bother him much.

There is now.

Filming a kissing scene? In front of everyone? And then showing it on a big screen and sending it to other people to watch?

Mai Sakurajima! You promised to accompany me slowly and wait patiently, even if it meant marriage or divorce, right?

No, according to the promise, I shouldn't be unhappy about this, but I'm just unhappy, I can't help being unhappy, and no promises or agreements matter...

Hmm, I can't figure it out, I just can't! Why did I agree to something like that back then? Was I an idiot? Was I a love-struck idiot? Now I can't even be honest about my unhappiness.

In short, it's all the white fungus's fault!

As Yukino Yukinoshita tried to disinfect herself with her eyes, she suddenly noticed an acquaintance on set!

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't notice her younger sister running to the film set. She was standing with her arms crossed, squinting as she watched, her right hand gently stroking her smooth chin, her attention completely focused.

There's another trick to this? Well... lately, while I was on set using the guise of gathering material to get free meals, I had a condescending attitude and happily participated in the filming. Occasionally, I would tease Hehua and Huajiang with Hunqiu, and lend a hand when Hunqiu went crazy. Everything was quite interesting.

Tsk, I knew about Sakurajima Mai's plans beforehand, but I didn't feel anything special when I found out. It's only now that I've seen it with my own eyes that a series of complex emotions have involuntarily welled up in my heart—what, Sakurajima Mai dared to bully me to my face, she's already courting death; what, this bastard dared to take a different path right in front of me, I'm going to wreak havoc on the harem; what, she even has this trick up her sleeve, if Sakurajima Mai can film a kissing scene, I can film one too!

Feng Bin and Hua stared wide-eyed, their faces flushed, their hearts pounding wildly.

She would glance at Bai Ying from time to time, wishing she could take her place; she would glance at her sister from time to time, wishing she could take her place as well.

Then, unable to figure out who he wanted to replace, his thoughts became overloaded, and he experienced a brief mental block.

This is too bold!

Amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd, the white-clad figure and Sakurajima Mai locked eyes, each speaking words of farewell to the world in their usual tone. The former's lines occasionally carried a hint of humor, yet her gaze remained lifeless. The latter diligently mimicked a similar tone, controlling her expression, attempting to make her gaze more profound, hoping her eyes would hint at the upcoming plot developments.

Then a kiss.

From a plot perspective, this is a surprise attack, an abrupt and long-suppressed emotional outburst, a final kiss before parting ways... It must be unexpected, even exceeding the expectations of the haters and the audience, to fully express the emotions through a single kiss.

Mai Sakurajima was seriously thinking, acting, and performing the role she had conceived in advance.

She suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh, sighed softly, and looked away, asking, "If I leave this world, will anyone be sad for me?"

“Of course, there will be sympathy, pity, sorrow, and lamentation, and then everything will go back to normal,” Bai Ying replied solemnly. “People will sympathize with the losers, but they will only stand on the side of the winners, even if they themselves are losers. It’s so contradictory and absurd…”

It's now!

Mai Sakurajima suddenly turned around, went straight to hug him, stood on tiptoe, tilted her chin up, and slightly tilted her head. She was carrying out the action she had planned for so long, quickly gathering her emotions and feelings…

Perhaps it's due to her personality and experiences, but she lacks initiative, has no interest in seizing every moment, nor in clinging to titles, and doesn't have many conflicting thoughts. She only cares about the emotional connection between herself and her hater, the feeling of liking and being liked. She's neither as concerned with every minute as Yukino, nor as conflicted about true feelings as Haruno.

They are too idle and have not yet embarked on the journey of pursuing their dreams, so they care a lot about whether their relationship can spark a flame.

However, when it comes to feelings of liking someone, I'm no less enthusiastic than they are.

I like you more than you think, and I hope you're in my dreams.

Mai Sakurajima's gaze was exceptionally gentle. Caught off guard by Bai Ying's gaze, she raised her beautiful face, a youthful smile that contrasted sharply with her world-weary makeup. She leaned closer, her forward body pressing Bai Ying back half a step, her hands naturally wrapping around his waist, gently pressing against him...

The emotions in his heart overflowed, condensing into a deep love in his eyes. His gaze passed over the white figure's shoulder and he unexpectedly encountered Yukino Yukinoshita.

what?

In the instant Mai Sakurajima was stunned, her cherry blossom-like lips gently touched the corner of Bai Ying's mouth.

More captivating than the sensation on their lips is the unconscious breath-holding and the close proximity of their gazes.

And there is Yukinoshita Yukino.

Mai Sakurajima's face instantly turned bright red.

"Card--!!"

The director of "The Untamed" shouted, and Bai Ying and Sakurajima Mai suddenly separated: "Ms. Sakurajima! Your gaze just now was very good, keep it up, but don't stare blankly for no reason! Maintain the tenderness and deep affection, keep the smile that is both innocent and mature, you're being too shy! And you, little brother, don't get lost in your beauty! Act like your heart has been pierced and your emotions have been awakened! What's with you two looking like single dogs in love? Keep breathing, be lively, dynamic, and changeable! Don't stand there like statues!"

"no problem!"

Bai Ying licked her lips: "With my acting skills, I only need three hundred more takes to pass!"

"Then I'll deduct 300% of your salary!"

Mai Sakurajima blinked, noticing the white figure shaking his leg, toes touching the ground. She stroked her hair with interest and smiled gently: "It seems like Black Fan isn't very skilled. Shall we take a break?"

"No need!" The white figure waved her hand, closed her eyes to clear her mind of the jumbled thoughts, then opened them again and unconsciously looked at Sakurajima Mai's lips. She closed her eyes again to sort out her thoughts. "Just a mere Hero Plus, watch me go all out!"

"Good! Very spirited!" Okita shouted through a megaphone. "On your marks! Now, let's begin again!"

The production team got back to work.

"You still have a chance to back out."

With a faint smile, Mai Sakurajima spoke while subtly shifting positions, as if using her actions to express her instinctive avoidance of death.

"Yes, everyone says that when someone commits suicide, there must be a moment when they regret it, and that's become a common understanding."

Bai Ying naturally switched places, each holding their own opinion with Sakurajima Mai, seemingly engaged in a heated debate, yet also engaging in casual conversation: "Everyone says to be yourself, but no one lets others be themselves... I don't even have the strength to back out anymore, and I won't have the chance to back out later either."

True despair is not anger, not pain, not roaring, but indifference to everything.

Showing life from withered trees to bloom... Hmm, being able to find the corresponding feeling and template, the only thing to do is figure out how to resist the light kiss and beauty attack of the hero plus.

The goal is to convey the momentary shock, excitement, and renewed vitality.

The white figure, who had been bowing his head in contemplation, naturally moved to the opposite side. He then raised his indifferent, lifeless gaze and said, "You don't think I'll go back on my word; you think I should go back on my word, you want to go back on my word—if you're hesitant, then stop. Continue to savor the bitterness that remains of your life..."

Huh? A hero?

The white figure's gaze passed over Mai Sakurajima's shoulder and landed on Yukino Yukinoshita, who was silently staring at him from the set.

Mai Sakurajima kissed him in an instant, their lips involuntarily deformed under the pressure, their most thrilling feelings coming from the breaths that brushed against each other.

"Card--!!"

The director of "The Untamed" was furious, frantically raising a megaphone: "Can't you guys kiss? Tilt your heads a little more, turn your heads to the side! Show your faces to the camera! Nose to nose, forehead to forehead, lips to lips, are you trying to fight?! My brother's astonishment and change in expression are good, but the change is too big and too fast! Show the process of change, show the beauty of life in change!"

"Again!"

Again? !

Yukino Yukinoshita's breathing became heavy, and her gaze began to shift from coldness to murderous intent, but she maintained her proper politeness and quietly waited for them to finish their work for the day.

Inside the venue, Mai Sakurajima smoothed her hair, covering her slightly flushed ears. She chuckled and lowered her voice, "Black Fan, is this all the acting you've got? Or do you want to kiss me a few more times?"

"Ridiculous. It's obvious that you're lusting after my good looks and want to kiss me more often. Besides, just touching the lips is only a kiss. What's important is the eyes and the actions. If you insist on saying what you felt during the kiss, then I can only say that your kiss was a bit rough, making me worry that my lips would get cut and I'd get mouth ulcers."

Bai Ying muttered a comment that made Sakurajima Mai's forehead throb, and she retorted loudly, "Director of Mo Dao Zu Shi! Aren't you a single dog? What do you know about acting? Do you even know how to kiss? No, you don't! You're just not satisfied!"

"climb!"

Okita Masahiro shouted, "The most beautiful love is the love in our imagination! You guys, film that imagined love! I'm judging from the perspective of an audience member and director, not from the perspective of a kissing master! Are you ready? If you're ready, start right now! Ms. Sakurajima, my brother, give me your best acting skills!"

The third kissing scene!

Mai Sakurajima and Shirokage adjusted their emotions and started performing again, but things weren't going very well.

"Cut—Let's start again! Sakurajima-san, suppress your shyness a little more, suppress it! My brother's eyes are too composed, show me more of that emotional depth!"

This is the fourth kissing scene!

"Cut! Where's the dialogue? Your lines and tone are so dull, the communication doesn't convey any negativity! The kissing scene is the finishing touch, but you guys better draw the dragon properly first!"

This is the fifth kissing scene!

The director of "The Untamed" was clearly inspired and had entered a meticulous polishing mode—this was Mai Sakurajima's first on-screen kiss, and with his younger brother's script as a bonus, plus his own super director mode bursting with inspiration, he was sure to create a classic scene lasting dozens of seconds!

Perfect! It must be even more perfect! I must impress the audience with my amazing talent!

"Cut! Achoo—!"
