Yinglili, who was aroused to have a rebellious psychology, didn't notice this at all. She just wanted to teach that hateful person a lesson, and the result——

--grumble.

His right foot suddenly slipped on the tile.

"Ah ah!"

When she secretly sighed that something was wrong, her body had already fallen forward.

The feeling of floating out of balance made her heart suddenly tighten. In front of her eyes was a hard bathtub filled with hot water, and her beautiful little face was reflected on the smooth water.

thump--!

She jumped into the bathtub, and hot water surged from all directions instantly, getting into her nose and mouth.

"--Fool!

"

The young man's voice came from a distant place.

Then, a pair of strong arms hugged her and pulled her out of the water.

Oh no!

"Cough cough, cough cough... puff cough..."

Yinglili coughed violently because she choked on the water, and her eyes were stung by the water and couldn't open them.

"Hey, how are you? Does it hurt anywhere?"

Someone's voice came to my ears, with a warm breath.

From the hands holding her arms, she felt a body temperature higher than her own.

"Cough...gu, bah bah..."

She rubbed her eyes, tried to open them, and looked up.

What appeared in front of her was that person's face, so close that she could clearly see her reflection in the other person's eyes.

The water surface rippled slightly, and along with the faint sound of water and the boy's breathing, there was a strong hormonal smell.

And she was leaning on him at this time. Through her swimsuit, the other person's body temperature and body outline were clearly transmitted to her, eroding her consciousness with overwhelming aggression.

"Yu...suke...?"

Ying Lili murmured, her consciousness still not fully recovered, she just instinctively stretched out her hand to find a solid support point to support her body.

The next second, Kato Yusuke's body shook violently.

Before she could react, the other party helped her up, jumped out of the bathtub, picked up a towel from the floor, wrapped it around her waist, and left the bathroom without looking back.

"... Lend me the bath towel for now, and I'll bring you a new one later."

Along with the heavy footsteps, the sounds outside the door gradually faded away.

Yinglili finally woke up, looked down at her right hand, and shook it while recalling the touch just now.

After five seconds.

"Liar—!?!?"

Her cheeks turned red, as if all the blood in her body was concentrated on her face, which was very hot.

…

Half an hour later, Yinglili put on new clothes and left the bathroom.

The fireplace in the living room is burning with a warm fire, making the atmosphere very peaceful.

Under a weak desk lamp, the young man leaned back on the sofa, covering his face with one hand, exuding an atmosphere of contemplation.

Her steps froze for a moment, then she walked up, sat down next to him, and timidly called out: "Yusuke..."

"..."

Kato Yusuke put down his hand, turned his face slightly, and then sighed dejectedly, "Is there a school uniform after the swimsuit? Are you cosplaying...?"

Ying Lili pouted but said nothing.

She threw off her slippers with a "click" and faced someone in a duck-sitting position. Her twin ponytails, which had been specially protected with conditioner, hung down close to her shoulders, lying softly on her legs covered in black knee-high socks.

.

So the young man asked again: "You are dressed like this at night, and you don't want to sleep?"

"leave me alone……"

"Unfortunately, the purpose of my coming here is to take care of you. If you feel annoyed, just endure it for one more day. You will be liberated when you return to Tokyo."

"...I hate this statement."

"Yes, then just pretend I didn't say anything. Then, were you injured in the bathroom just now? Like you sprained your foot or knocked something somewhere."

Yinglili shook her head and muttered: "...I'm not injured, I just choked on the water a little."

Kato Yusuke deliberately said in a relaxed tone: "Even kindergarten children know not to run around in the bathroom. It's a shame that you can do that kind of behavior."

"That's not all because of you!"

"Is that so? It turns out that the whole problem lies with me, the person you broke into the bathroom for no reason? Do you need me to kneel down and apologize to you?"

"……Are you angry?"

"That's not true, but please don't do this next time."

As soon as they finished speaking, both parties fell into an awkward silence.

In the silence, only the clock was ticking.

In order to prevent this atmosphere from spreading, Kato Yusuke turned on the TV and randomly found an animation to play.

They just watched the animation absently until the grandfather clock, which symbolized twelve o'clock at midnight, rang.

"Yinglili, this is for you."

The young man picked up a paper bag from the small coffee table next to him and handed it over.

Yinglili took the paper bag, took out the contents, and found that it was a box of chocolates.

"Happy birthday to you, Yinglili."

"Eh……?"

Yinglili was suddenly stunned, "...what do you mean?"

Kato Yusuke scratched his cheek and explained:

"How should I put it? Actually, this was originally a White Valentine's Day return gift for you. I forgot to give it to you before, but today happens to be your birthday, so..."

Yinglili pinched the chocolate in her hand and said after a while:

"Insincere... How could anyone put together a White Valentine's Day gift and a birthday gift? It's super perfunctory..."

Kato Yusuke couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Well... we have been staying in the villa these days and have no chance to prepare, otherwise I will supply you with it later."

"real……?"

"Well, really, if you have anything you want, you can tell me."

"That……"

Yinglili put down the chocolate, lowered her head and pretended to think for a while, gently holding the hem of her skirt with her hands, and then she mustered up the courage to raise her head.

"I want you to sleep with me tonight... on the same bed... kind of..."

Her voice became quieter and quieter, until it was almost completely silent.

Kato Yusuke was silent for a moment, "...What is this?"

"That's it! I want you to sleep with me—!"

"reason?"

"This, this... that... of course it's because I like you... ah, you're so annoying! Why do you have to ask me to tell you!" the girl said angrily.

Kato Yusuke looked at her intently and asked in a calm tone: "I just want to sleep with you?"

"Huh……?"

Ying Lili was stunned by the question, her body twisted uneasily, she pointed her fingers in front of her chest, lowered her head and whispered: "Besides this... I want you and me..."

There was silence for a while.

After a while, Kato Yusuke stood up, put his arms through the girl's back and legs, and picked her up from the sofa.

Yinglili's body trembled, startled by this sudden move, and placed her hands on her chest uneasily.

"Eh? Huh? Um... Yusuke? Where are we going?"

The young man looked at her deeply and said, "Do what you want to do."

After finishing speaking, he raised his feet and walked forward.
