Chapter 154
When I arrived at the gate of Soubu High School, a few students from the homecoming club had already left the school. I looked around a bit and found that Yukino was not packing her things to leave the school, but was walking in the corridor with Yui Yuigahama. They stopped at the door of a classroom with a sign that read “Human Heart Research Club”.
It was only then that I remembered that not long ago, Hiratsuka Shizuka had mentioned to me that Yukino had started a club at her urging. According to Shizuka, it was to change Yukino’s awkward personality and at least make her friends more friendly, of course, female friends. It seems that Yuigahama Yui was the first member.
But what does the Human Psychology Research Club do? Could it really be researching human psychology? Or is it researching the “human psyche” that only those with large breasts can win people’s hearts? While I was lost in thought, two beautiful girls walked into the activity room. The black-haired, mature teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka, was also inside, her long, slender legs crossed, seemingly reading some book.
”Where should I go now? I should have done it with Mrs. Kousaka again.” If it were just Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukino, I could go straight there, but there’s also Yuigahama Yui, a girl I’m not that familiar with yet. It’s better not to bother her for now and wait until we’re more familiar.
Should I go and see my sister-in-law, Yumiko Miura? Just as I was about to do so, a clear and melodious voice suddenly came from behind me.
”Uncle, is that you?” Along with the voice came the sound of running, the “clack-clack-clack” of small round-toed leather shoes rubbing against the ground. I turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a pretty and cute girl coming in front of me.
The girl breathed softly, her shoulder-length flaxen hair swaying slightly, her brown eyes filled with surprise, her pink lips slightly parted, and she wore the black long-sleeved school uniform of Soubu High School. The uniform was not buttoned up, revealing a red shirt underneath, with a white shirt underneath and a red ribbon on the collar.
Her lower body was naturally wearing the black and white checkered pleated skirt that came with the Zongwu High School. Underneath the skirt were slender, fair legs, covered in black knee-high cotton socks, and brown round-toed student shoes.
The pretty girl had her hands behind her back, one hand holding a shoulder bag, and the other hand bent to grasp the arm holding the bag. She leaned forward slightly, carefully examining me. The girl was very close, and I could clearly smell her fragrance. The small, round silver earrings on her ears shimmered.
”Hmm…” The pretty girl with short flaxen hair circled around me, carefully examining me, before finally standing up straight in front of me again.
”It really is you, Uncle!” The girl nodded affirmatively, a slight smile playing on her lips, her large brown eyes blinking.
”Are you the middle school girl I met in the park?” I thought for a moment and remembered the first time I saw this girl.
That was about a year ago. At that time, Yukino Yukinoshita was still a first-year student at Sobu High School. I had only known her for a short time. After Yukino came to my cat shop and left, I handed the cat shop over to a female employee to manage and prepared to do other things. When I walked to a nearby park, I happened to see a girl sitting on a swing with a low mood.
I entered the park and sat down on the swing next to the girl. The girl, who was in low spirits, was clearly immersed in her own world and did not notice my arrival at all.
”Ha…” To get the girl’s attention, I took out a bottle of milk tea, took a sip, and made a satisfying sound.
The girl sitting on the swing finally noticed my presence, looked up at me, and then ignored me. This confirmed my judgment; she was indeed a beautiful girl.
”This cute little girl, is something bothering you?” At my age, calling a middle school student a little girl is perfectly fine.
”Hmm?” The short-haired girl looked me over with a puzzled expression, her eyes revealing a wary look.
”Uh, I don’t have any bad intentions. I just saw a cute girl having some trouble, so I wanted to see if there was anything I could do to help.” I touched my nose and gave a helpless smile. I really didn’t intend to do anything; I just wanted to see if I could make a long-term investment.
However, my words made the short-haired girl even more wary. Why did I specifically mention a cute girl when I wanted to help someone in need? Doesn’t that easily give the impression that I have ulterior motives?
”Look, there are still parents with children playing up ahead, and there are other people in the park, so it’s relatively safe. Anyway, you don’t know me, and I don’t know you. Just think of it as talking to a stranger. I’d be happy to listen. After we leave this park, you and I probably won’t meet again, and even if we do, we probably won’t remember what happened today, right?”
The short-haired girl frowned and thought for a moment. With my natural affinity for women, and the fact that I didn’t seem like a bad person, plus the fact that her home and school weren’t nearby and that she had deliberately gone a bit further to vent her emotions, the short-haired girl decided to talk to me.
”It’s really not a big deal.” The short-haired girl’s small feet, clad in black knee-high socks, moved slightly, causing the swing to sway gently. I didn’t speak, but continued to listen to the girl’s words.
”It’s just that I’m being ostracized by my classmates. It was okay in the first year of junior high, but it got worse in the second year and now it’s the third year. I used to have one or two female classmates I could talk to in the first year, but now there are none left.”
”Even if I try to talk to them, they deliberately avoid me and give off an atmosphere of ‘get away from me,’ so I’ve stopped trying to talk to them now.”
”Although the boys don’t seem to mind talking to me, I always feel that talking to them would only make things worse. So I haven’t talked to any boys either. It seems that I really don’t have any friends at school.”
”But there’s only half a semester left. Once this half semester is over and I get to the new high school, things should get better, right?” The short-haired girl forced a smile as she said this.
”So it was bullying on campus. You did the right thing. If the girls who ostracize you find out that you get along well with boys, this bullying is likely to escalate, and you’ll have an even harder time then.”
”Right?” The girl had never told anyone about her situation at school, not even her parents. It was just emotional abuse, which she could endure. The girl had always treated herself this way, but the suppressed emotions needed to be released a little. So sometimes she would be alone quietly like this. Although the effect wasn’t very good, it was better than keeping it all bottled up inside.
Now that she’s told me this, her approach has been recognized, which has greatly relieved her emotional distress. It’s much more effective than comforting herself alone.
”Well, but I think you could be a little more proactive, girl. Instead of relying on such an unstable factor as changing the environment, it would be better to change yourself. This way you can adapt to the environment better, and it’s safer and more secure than just hoping to get into a different high school.”
”Change yourself?” The short-haired girl blinked her brown eyes in confusion, and the movement of lightly rubbing the ground with her round-toed leather shoes stopped involuntarily.
”That’s right. I think the biggest reason you’re being ostracized is because you’re pretty. It’s hard to guarantee that you won’t encounter this situation again when you go to high school. How will you deal with it then? Will you continue to endure it like this? People’s patience has its limits. I’m afraid that you’ll cause something bad to happen if you keep it bottled up.”
”Then what should we do?” Hearing me say that, the short-haired girl couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. Yes, what should she do if she encountered a classmate like that in high school? She had basically been comforting herself by saying that she was about to enter high school and had forced herself to get through it. If it was like that in high school, she definitely wouldn’t be able to handle it.
”Generally speaking, if you are a cold person, you should be able to face this situation calmly. Some aloof girls, who are like flowers on a high mountain, don’t have much contact with their classmates. They can be said to have a natural and strong resistance to this kind of cold violence, or they simply don’t care.”
“However, I don’t think you’re a cold person. It would be very difficult to change that.” I looked the flaxen-haired girl up and down. She didn’t look like one of those icy girls at all.
”Mmm, mmm.” The short-haired girl nodded quickly. She noticed that what I said sounded quite reasonable, so she listened attentively.
”Another relatively simple method is to actively blend in. This doesn’t mean blindly striking up conversations, but rather observing people’s expressions and deliberating carefully before finding the right point to insert yourself. This makes it easier to break into the inner circle.”
”After finding a breakthrough, first get to know one or two female classmates in your small circle. During this time, you should carefully observe their expressions and understand what they like so that you can get to know them more quickly. Once you have one or two ‘friends,’ you will have an advantage in your small circle and won’t have to be as cautious as you were at the beginning. However, you can’t be careless either. If you say something wrong, your beauty could easily attract jealous people to make things difficult for you.”
”In general, it’s about paying attention to the small details the other person shows. This will help you understand them faster and make a better move. Before they reject you, you can blend in with them, and then there won’t be any problems. Of course, this will be more tiring, since there are quite a few things to consider.”
”Won’t this be a little difficult?” The short-haired girl blinked. It sounded quite difficult. Could she do it?
”You can start practicing now. Middle school students are more expressive of their emotions than high school students. High school students are still students after all, which is much easier than for people who have entered the workforce. So it’s not too difficult. Just don’t do anything rash when you’re unsure.”
”Pay a little more attention to the timing. It’s not that everything is suitable to do right away. It should still be relatively easy to blend into the girls’ small circle.”
”Is that so? Then I’ll give it a try.” The short-haired girl nodded, a little uneasy, unsure if she could do it.
”Actually, there’s no need to worry so much. Maybe, like you said, you’ll meet a group of friendly classmates when you go to high school, and then you won’t have to go through all this trouble.” Seeing the girl’s nervous look, I couldn’t help but reach out and gently pat her head.
”Oh, I’m sorry.”
”It’s okay, hehe. Anyway, I think your method is pretty good. I’ll give it a try. Better safe than sorry.” The short-haired girl shook her head and then smiled playfully.
”That’s right. A young girl like you should smile more. It’s not good to look so gloomy like before.” The girl’s playful smile brightened my eyes, and I exclaimed sincerely.
”I’ve realized my initial wariness wasn’t wrong. Uncle, you really are a bit of a pervert.” The short-haired girl’s brown eyes darted around as she spoke with feigned seriousness.
”Is this what you call lewdness?” I glanced at the short-haired girl speechlessly. Girl, you still don’t know what true lewdness is.
”Hehe.” The short-haired girl stuck out her tongue. Perhaps because she had finally settled her mind, the girl’s behavior was completely different from when they first met.
”Alright, it’s getting late. It’s not good to be late. Young lady, you should go home now.” After that, I chatted with the short-haired girl for quite a while, and soon it got dark.
”Hmm, is it already this time? Thank you so much for today. Goodbye, sir.” The short-haired girl stood up from the swing and bowed to thank me.
”Goodbye.” I smiled and waved. The short-haired girl quickly left the park. When she reached the park entrance, she waved goodbye to me again. This was probably the scene of our first meeting.
”I didn’t expect you to still remember me, uncle.” The flaxen-haired girl’s eyes lit up when she heard that I still remembered the scene of our first meeting.
”I always remember cute girls quite clearly, and besides, you remember me too, don’t you? But you’ve changed quite a bit, I almost didn’t recognize you.” Although it wasn’t to the point of a girl changing drastically as she grew up, the girl’s temperament had changed a lot compared to when I first met her, giving off a more cheerful and playful feeling.
”Uncle, you’re still a bit of a smooth talker, you know how to charm girls.”
”I’m just stating the facts. By the way, judging from your school uniform, you’ve become a student at Zongwu High School too?”
”Well, actually I went to the park a few times before, but I didn’t see you, Uncle. So when I applied to schools, I applied to Soubu High School, which is nearby, to see if I could run into you again. You know, I put in a lot of effort to get into Soubu High School.” The short-haired girl wrinkled her nose, as if she was recalling the days when she buried herself in her studies.
”Then I am truly honored to be remembered by such a lovely girl as you.” I never expected that the reason the girl took the entrance exam for Soubu High School was for me. But thinking about it, Soubu High School is a pretty good high school anyway, so meeting me was probably just a side effect, right?
”I mainly wanted to let you know that the method you taught me was useful.” The short-haired girl shyly brushed her shoulder-length brown hair aside with her delicate hand.
”So you’re doing pretty well in class now.” Judging from the girl’s current performance, her new high school life should be going well, at least better than in junior high.
”Well, after a period of hard work, I guess I’ve made it into the girls’ little circle.” Saying this, the short-haired girl stuck out her tongue proudly. She had finally escaped the predicament she faced in junior high school. Since she had only told me about this, I was the first and only person she could brag about.
”It seems the female classmates you’ve encountered aren’t very easy to get along with.” If most of them were relatively friendly, the short-haired girl probably wouldn’t need my advice. It just goes to show that being good-looking can sometimes cause some trouble.
”I don’t know why I’m so unlucky.” Touched on a sore spot, the short-haired girl couldn’t help but pout her cherry lips slightly.
”Consider it a test for you. Being able to handle interpersonal relationships well will be helpful for your future.”
”That’s the only way to put it. By the way, uncle, are you free now? I’d like to treat you to something at a nearby dessert shop as a thank you.” The short-haired girl slung her backpack over her shoulder, clenched one small fist in front of her chest, and opened the other, giving a light tap to come up with the idea of treating everyone.
”I do have time, but I only said a few words at the time. If you really want to do it, you’ll have to do it yourself. So you don’t need to treat me. How about we split the bill?” It just so happens that Yukino and Shizuka are both busy with club activities right now, so the girl’s invitation came at the perfect time.
”Anytime is fine. As long as you’re kind enough to talk, I’ll treat you. Okay, let’s go.” The short-haired girl slipped behind me and pushed my back with her small hand.
”Okay, I’ll treat you next time.” The girl had already said that much; it would be rather impolite to refuse.
”Hehe, that’s more like it. Let’s go.” Seeing that I agreed, the short-haired girl walked quickly behind me to my side, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
”Ah, we’ve been talking for so long, and I haven’t even introduced myself yet. Now that we’ve met again, Uncle, can we learn each other’s names this time?” The short-haired girl exclaimed after taking only two steps, and hurriedly said to me.
”Indeed, it was my oversight. My name is Jian, but you can continue to call me Uncle if you like.” Since the girl had taken the initiative to speak, I naturally didn’t mind.
”Okay, then I’ll continue to call you Uncle. My name is Isshiki Iroha. If you don’t mind, Uncle, you can call me Isshiki or Iroha.” Isshiki Iroha nodded happily and then said her name.
”Iroha Isshiki… Hmm, I’ll call you Isshiki then.” I said after thinking for a moment.
”Okay, um… Uncle, I also want to ask, what were you doing at our school gate just now? Were you waiting for someone?” Iroha asked curiously, her hands behind her back.
”Yes, I’m waiting for a friend.” Because Yukino is shy, even though many students have seen me and Yukino together and have made some guesses about our relationship, Yukino has never admitted it and warned me not to say anything more, or she would bite me to death.
Yeah, I remember teasing Yukino back then, saying that if you could “bite” me to death, I could try. She understood my teasing, and without saying a word, Yukino pounced on my neck. Naturally, I taught her a good lesson (and beat her up).
So many times, students from Soubu High School would come over and ask me curiously if Yukino and I were boyfriend and girlfriend. I neither denied nor admitted it. Of course, I don’t mind telling people I’m close to. Although Iroha Isshiki isn’t a bad girl, we’re not that close yet. If we were close, she would probably be able to tell what Yukino and I are doing without me saying it.
”Is it a male friend or a female friend?” Iroha Isshiki asked as she slowly walked away, turning her head to look at me.
”It’s a female friend.” There was no point in hiding it, so I just said it.
”Female friends…” Iroha Isshiki muttered thoughtfully to herself.
”What? Is there a problem?”
”No, huh? We’re almost there. Let’s hurry up, Uncle.” Iroha Isshiki waved with a smile, then pointed ahead and jogged a few steps.
”Hurry up, Uncle.” Iroha Isshiki turned around and waved to me.
”We’re here.” I quickened my pace and entered the dessert shop with Iroha Isshiki.
In the dessert shop, I sat facing Iroha Isshiki. The girl’s slightly long school uniform sleeves reached the middle of her palms. She rested her hands on the table, her delicate hands supporting her head, with two of her slender white fingers gently tapping.
”Uncle, who are you waiting for? I don’t know, do I even know them?” Iroha Isshiki asked, her eyes gleaming with curiosity.
”Her name is Yukino Yukinoshita, and she’s a year older than you, Isshiki. I don’t know if you’ve heard of her.” Anyway, I didn’t say she was my girlfriend, so I guess I haven’t revealed anything.
”Yukino Yukinoshita… Hmm? Could it be that you’re talking about that second-year high-class beauty, Yukino Yukinoshita, the one everyone’s talking about at school?” Iroha Isshiki’s brown eyes widened slightly as she asked in surprise.
”Yes, it’s her.” I nodded affirmatively.
”Huh!? That’s the school’s famous cold beauty, you actually know her, uncle.” Even she, a first-year student, had heard of Yukino Yukinoshita’s name, which shows how famous she is at Soubu High School.
”Iroha, you’re not bad either. Don’t I know you too?” Iroha is indeed no worse than Yukino. It’s just that cold beauties and proud beauties are more likely to become famous.
”Hehe, Uncle, are you teasing me?” Despite her words, Isshiki Iroha’s narrowed eyes and upturned lips indicated that she was quite satisfied with the answer.
”I’m just telling the truth.” I shrugged, and just then, the food that I and Isshiki Yu ordered was served.
”Iroha, I’ll treat you to some homemade desserts next time,” I suddenly thought, looking at the cream pudding in front of me.
”Uncle, can you make desserts?” Iroha Isshiki stopped touching the pudding with her delicate hand, which was holding a small spoon. She didn’t realize I could make desserts.
”Hmm, it tastes pretty good. You’ll see when you try it.” For a girl, I naturally bring out my specially made desserts; the taste is sure to be unforgettable for her.
”Okay, I’m looking forward to it.” Iroha Isshiki nodded happily. Chatting with me was probably the most relaxed conversation Iroha Isshiki had besides with her parents. At school, she often had to read people’s expressions and moods, so it was impossible for her not to feel tired at all. She was very happy to have a friend with whom she could get along easily.
Next, I chatted with Isshiki Iroha while we ate. When the club activity was almost over, I said goodbye to Isshiki Iroha, exchanged phone numbers, and said we would meet again next time.
Just as I was about to go back to Soubu High, my phone suddenly rang. The caller ID showed it was Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was with Yukino and the others. I answered the phone immediately.
”Hey, Xiaojing, what’s up?”
”Oh no! I told you not to call me that on the phone. What if the students hear me?!” Hiratsuka Shizuka quickly walked out of the activity room and looked around the corridor. The activity room was relatively secluded, and no one was passing by, which made Hiratsuka Shizuka relax a little.
”It was just a slip of the tongue, I’ll be more careful next time.” Judging from Hiratsuka Shizuka’s tone, I could imagine her swinging her iron fist as she quickly walked to the side.
”That would be best.” Hiratsuka Shizuka snorted lightly. When it was just the two of them in private, she didn’t mind me calling her that, and even liked it a little. But it wouldn’t do at school. It would damage her authority as an iron-fisted teacher, and it would also make her a little embarrassed.
”Jing, you still haven’t told me why you called me.”
”It’s all your fault for interrupting. Today, Yukino’s club was officially established, and I’m planning to treat them to a meal to celebrate. Do you want to come?” You should know that when she first brought up this idea, Yukino Yukinoshita seemed uninterested, but Yui Yuigahama was a little tempted. This kind of club dinner is a good way to strengthen the relationship between club members.
However, seeing that Yui didn’t seem very interested, Yuigahama Yui didn’t readily agree. Fortunately, she had the idea of inviting me along. After she mentioned it, Yukino Yukinoshita’s expression changed slightly, and she nodded in agreement. So she immediately called me.
”Of course I wouldn’t miss such a good thing. Wait a minute, I’ll be right there. See you later, Xiaojing.” After saying that, I immediately hung up the phone and went straight to the gate of Zongwu High School.
”Ken that bastard.” Hiratsuka Shizuka spat inwardly. It hadn’t been long since I started calling her Shizuka again. Hearing the busy tone coming from the phone, she decided to teach me a lesson later and let me know that she wasn’t as easy to bully as those little girls.
”You came really fast.” Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had just ended the call, was about to take Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Yuigahama to her car to wait for me. However, she didn’t expect that she would see me when she led the two students to the vicinity of the school gate.
”Since I’ve been invited by two beautiful ladies, I definitely have to come quickly.” The three of them reacted differently to my words. Hiratsuka Shizuka rolled her eyes at me, Yukino Yukinoshita remained aloof, as if she was already used to my words, while Yuigahama Yui scratched her cheek a little embarrassedly.
”Now that everyone’s here, let’s get in the car quickly.” Hiratsuka Shizuka unlocked the car and sat in the driver’s seat first. As I hesitated whether to sit in the passenger seat or the back seat, Hiratsuka Shizuka gave me a wink.
”Yuihama, please sit here. I need to talk to your mother about the celebration tonight,” Hiratsuka Shizuka said to Yuihama after giving me a wink.
”Ah, okay.” Yui Yuigahama quickly walked to the passenger side, her full breasts bouncing, which made Yukino raise her eyebrows.
”Yukino, let’s get in the car too.” I opened the back door for Yukino. Yukino gave a soft “hmm” and got into the car, gathering her pleated skirt with her hands. Seeing this, I was originally going to close the door and walk to the other side to get in, but when I saw that Yukino deliberately sat on the inside, I chuckled and got in directly, closing the door behind me.
”Fasten your seatbelts, let’s go.” Hiratsuka Shizuka stepped on the gas and started the car. At the same time, she made a phone call to Yui Yui’s mother using a Bluetooth headset.
While Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yuigahama Yui were focused on the phone, I openly observed Yukino Yukinoshita. She was still wearing the black school uniform and pleated skirt of Soubu High School, and her jade-like legs, clad in black stockings with white trim, were leaning to one side, with a glimpse of fair thigh flesh peeking out between the skirt and stockings forming an absolute territory.
”By the way, Yukino, what does your Human Heart Research Club do?” Taking advantage of the fact that Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yuigahama Yui weren’t paying attention, I quietly placed my hand on Yukino’s black stocking thigh. The stocking felt soft and smooth, and her thigh felt plump and smooth; the combination was simply wonderful.
”…” Yukino Yukinoshita immediately widened her blue eyes and looked ahead with a slight panic. She was slightly relieved when she saw that the two people in front of her were not paying attention to the back row. Then she glared at me fiercely with her blue eyes.
Seeing Yukino’s expression of “What are you doing? How can you act like this in this situation?” made me chuckle mischievously. And the feel of her was just too good.
”What? Is there something you’re embarrassed to say, Yukino?” My hand slid down to Yukino’s black stockings and calves. After saying that, I mouthed “that way we won’t be found out.”
”…No, it’s nothing. It’s just that Hiratsuka-sensei suddenly asked me to start a club or something. I wanted to refuse, but I happened to be a little curious about this kind of thing, so I started this club.” Yukino Yukinoshita bit her cherry lips lightly. Seeing that I had no intention of stopping, she could only helplessly continue.
”Is that so?” It’s quite unusual for Yukino to suddenly become curious about the study of human nature, given her personality. If you asked me to start a cat-loving club, I wouldn’t find it strange at all, but the way I was stroking Yukino’s slender legs in stockings made me lose all interest in asking any further questions.
”Yes, that’s it.” Yukino Yukinoshita glanced away with her blue eyes, feeling a little guilty. Actually, the reason she started this club was simply because she heard Hiratsuka Shizuka say, “Yukino, don’t you want to better capture that bad guy’s heart so he won’t be flirting with other women all the time? How about starting a Heart Research Club? Under this guise, we can study how to better capture that bad guy’s heart.”
Of course, she didn’t admit it was because of that at the time. She told Shizuka Hiratsuka that she started the club because she was interested in this area and wanted to understand the complex psychology of people.
Seeing Yukino’s reaction, I knew the real reason wasn’t just that. However, with Hiratsuka Shizuka looking after her, there shouldn’t be any problems. So, I pinched Yukino’s supple black stockings hard as punishment. That was fine; girls should always have their own little thoughts, it’s not a bad thing.
”Hmm…” Yukino Yukinoshita felt a numbness in her calf and let out a soft moan. With other people around, she couldn’t say anything directly, so she could only continue to warn me with her eyes.
Such a warning look was of no use to me. I continued to gently caress Yukino’s thigh-high stockings with my hand, from the shinbone covered by the stockings to the calf muscle, and then from the calf muscle back to the shinbone, making an extremely faint rustling sound.
Just then, Hiratsuka Shizuka’s call with Yui Yuigahama’s mother ended. Yukino Yukinoshita, realizing this, hurriedly mouthed “stop,” her pink cherry lips slightly parted, as if tempting me to step forward and kiss her.
I mouthed “reassuring” and then chatted with Yukino casually. Yukino knew she couldn’t persuade me to stop, so she had to cooperate to avoid arousing suspicion from Yui and Shizuka.
Gradually, under the skillful caress of my hot, large hands, a blush crept onto Yukino Yukinoshita’s milky-white face, and her breathing became slightly rapid. Yui Yuigahama, sitting in the front seat, probably didn’t notice, but Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was looking back in the rearview mirror from time to time in the driver’s seat, seemed to have noticed something, and her expression was a little strange.
Seeing Yukino Yukinoshita’s slightly flushed face, Shizuka Hiratsuka guessed that it was most likely me causing trouble, but she couldn’t say anything now, lest she embarrass Yukinoshita. With that in mind, she stepped on the gas, wanting to reach her destination as soon as possible.
The car suddenly sped up, and coupled with Hiratsuka Shizuka’s strange expression, it was clear she had figured something out. To this, I could only shake my head and smile. What were they all thinking? Yuigahama Yui was there; I wouldn’t do anything more outrageous.
If Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukino Yukinoshita knew what I was thinking, they would definitely roll their eyes at me and give me a look that said, “Who knows what this big pervert is up to?” They’ve both learned their lesson the hard way.
With Shizuka driving fast and the shop not being far away, she quickly arrived at her destination.
”We’re here, get out of the car.” Hiratsuka Shizuka found a place to park the car. Hearing her words, Yukino finally breathed a sigh of relief. I glanced at the large hand that was still rubbing against her thigh-high stockings and calves, shrugged, and reluctantly withdrew the large hand.
Yui Yuigahama and I got off the bus one after the other. Yukino Yukinoshita had her face a little red, so she put her hands on her face to cool it down before getting off the bus. Seeing this, I went to the other side and opened the bus door. But as soon as Yukino got off the bus, her legs went weak.
”Are you alright, Yukino?” I quickly helped Yukino up; the girl leaned against me, her fragrance filling the air.
”You have the nerve to say that? It’s all because of you.” Yukino Yukinoshita complained softly, then quickly stood up.
”Xiaoxue, are you alright?” Yui Yuigahama asked with concern as she happened to be looking over.
”I’m fine, I’m just a little weak in the legs from standing up all of a sudden.” Of course, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn’t reveal the real reason, so she made up an excuse to get by.
”That’s good.” Yui Yuigahama originally wanted to come forward to check on Yukino Yukinoshita’s condition, but she stopped in her tracks after glancing at me. Although she can be a bit slow at times, she’s not stupid, at least not in terms of emotional intelligence.
”It’s good that you’re alright. Let’s go inside and talk first.” At this moment, Hiratsuka Shizuya got out of the car, closed and locked the door, swung the car keys, and said to the three of us with her hands on her hips.
Looking at the restaurant’s name, hmm, it’s a high-end barbecue restaurant. As expected of Xiaojing, she’s quite unconventional. I guess there will definitely be plenty of beer later. While thinking to myself, I followed Xiaojing into the restaurant with Yukino and Yui.
