Shizuka Hiratsuka doesn't understand love!

"Wow!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was leaning against the head of the bed, slowly relaxing her still somewhat sluggish thoughts, suddenly thought of something and her expression became slightly serious.

Raising her hand to lift the quilt covering her, Shizuka Hiratsuka carefully looked at the sheets, which had some wrinkles but nothing strange about them, and nodded in relief.

"As expected, it's okay as long as you don't get completely drunk."

After casually spreading the quilt and twisting her neck left and right, Shizuka Hiratsuka picked up the mobile phone on the bedside and checked the time.

"Uh, at this time, it might be too late to go for a morning run." Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked and patted her face, her mind a little blank for a moment.

"Forget it, let's go wash our face first."

. . .

"Oh, Jing, are you up already?" Slowly walking down the stairs, Shizuka Hiratsuka saw Chris sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a cigarette in one hand and swiping her phone, not knowing what she was doing.

"Well, Chris got up early too. It's obviously a holiday, why don't you take a good rest?" He smiled and waved his hand, not taking the cigarette handed to him by Chris. Shizuka Hiratsuka would not smoke before morning exercise.

"It's okay. I don't want to sleep anymore after I woke up." Chris chuckled and shook her head, then exhaled a puff of smoke and her eyes naturally swept across Shizuka Hiratsuka's face.

"It's good to get up early. Look at Sister Yukiko, she always likes to sleep in." After teasing Yukiko who had not yet shown her head, Shizuka Hiratsuka stood up and moved her wrists and shoulders.

"By the way, Chris, I remember you said before that there is a fitness area in your villa."

"Well, yes. Why, Jing, do you want to do morning exercises?" Blinking, Chris crushed the cigarette in the ashtray and stood up.

"Well, although I don't have enough time to go out for a run, I still have the habit of exercising a little in the morning." Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was dressed neatly, nodded.

It should be said that since following her master to learn, Shizuka Hiratsuka has maintained her habit of morning exercises unless there are special circumstances that leave no other options.

"Well, come with me. The gym in this villa is quite big." Chris swept her long legs from the coffee table to the floor, walked to Shizuka Hiratsuka and said with a smile.

"Yeah." Following Chris's footsteps, Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly walked to the villa's gym.

"Oh, this is a very nice place." Looking at the room in front of her which was well-equipped and had ample space, Shizuka Hiratsuka twisted her neck excitedly with satisfaction.

"I'll just exercise here. If breakfast is almost ready, just call me." He immediately fell in love with the training mat in the middle of the entire gym, which was about 30 square meters in size, and the sandbags hanging from the ceiling. It was much better than the one at Yukiko's house.

"What's the point of hitting a sandbag alone? Jing, if you want to exercise, I'll accompany you." Chris said with a smile, shaking her head slightly.

"Eh!" Surprised, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned around and looked at Chris beside her.

Although she had known from Yukiko and Chris herself that Chris had some knowledge of martial arts, Shizuka Hiratsuka was just saying it casually when she said she wanted to spar with Chris.

Shizuka Hiratsuka still has a correct understanding of her own strength. Apart from being young and frivolous and enjoying the fun of fighting, Shizuka Hiratsuka has not fought with others for a long time since she became a teacher.

There is no way. All the bad guys in the Chiba area have been almost dealt with by Shizuka Hiratsuka. Even those who are strong in combat and are the capable men under Shizuka Hiratsuka's father are no match for Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Chris said that her hobby is fighting, but for Shizuka Hiratsuka, fighting is not just a hobby.

"I know I can't beat Jing, but wouldn't it be nice to do some simple exercises?" Seeing Shizuka Hiratsuka's hesitation, Chris said with a smile, then turned and walked to the locker room on the side, ready to change into clothes suitable for the battle.

"That's fine." Scratching her hair and looking at Chris's back, Shizuka Hiratsuka muttered to herself.

"Wouldn't it be fine if I just paid a little more attention then?"

. . .

"Ah~ I slept so comfortably." Yukiko, who had already finished washing up, slowly walked down the stairs in her pajamas.

"Eh? Where are those two?" Looking at the empty living room with some surprise, Yukiko walked to the window again and glanced at the equally empty beach.

"At this time, Xiaojing should be back from exercise soon, so where is Chris?" Looking at the time on her phone, Yukiko tilted her head in confusion.

"Huh?" Yukiko, who was thinking about whether to make a phone call to ask, suddenly blinked. She seemed to hear some strange noises.

Yukiko took a step forward with doubt in her heart and quickly followed the sound to a room with an open door.

Reaching out and pushing open the door, Yukiko's eyes slowly widened.

On the cushion in the middle of the room, Shizuka Hiratsuka and Chris were entangled together. Shizuka Hiratsuka held Chris's arm with one hand and supported her other hand on the cushion next to Chris's head. Chris's free hand was around Shizuka Hiratsuka's neck.

Their legs were crossed and stacked, with a faint blush on their faces. The only sound in the room was their intertwined breathing.

"Ah, Sister Yukiko, are you finally up?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, Shizuka Hiratsuka raised her head and greeted Yukiko with a smile.

"Good morning, Xiaojing, Chris." With a decent smile on her face, Yukiko walked into the room step by step.

"You guys, are you sparring?"

"Well, I have nothing to do in the morning, so I just want to move around." Shizuka Hiratsuka lifted herself up from Chris's body by supporting herself with her arms. At the same time, she held Chris's hand and pulled her up.

"Good morning, Yukiko." Chris stood up and nodded to Yukiko, then lowered her head to tidy up her clothes which were a little dislocated due to the fight.

What neither Hiratsuka Shizuka nor Yukiko saw was the look of pity that flashed across Chris's eyes, her expression hidden behind her hair.

"Really? Didn't I tell you, Xiaojing, don't bully others?" Yukiko took a step forward and helped Shizuka Hiratsuka pull up her wrinkled clothes. She felt a little weird in her heart.

"I'll go take a shower and then prepare breakfast." After tidying up her clothes, Chris smiled at the two of them and walked out of the room first.

"Sister Yukiko, Chris's fighting skills are very good." Rubbing her wrist excitedly, Shizuka Hiratsuka said to Yukiko beside her.

"She almost..."

"Xiao Jing."

"Ok?"

"You have to remember, never put a girl under you, especially a girl you have a good relationship with, okay?"

"Eh?"

Chapter 23 I was so moved that I almost cried

Although she was a little curious about why Yukiko suddenly said such inexplicable words to her, after asking repeatedly and getting no answer, Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Yukiko's smiling face helplessly and scratched her head.

"Okay, okay, don't think too much. Just take care of yourself. Go wash up properly. We'll have breakfast soon." Yukiko smiled and pushed on Hiratsuka Shizuka's shoulder. She had no intention of explaining at all.

"Okay, okay, I get it, don't push me."

"Go quickly, you're all sweaty." Seeing Shizuka Hiratsuka walking up the stairs slowly, Yukiko's smile slowly disappeared.

"Oh, what should I do?" Yukiko muttered with a headache, holding her chin.

Unlike the carefree Shizuka Hiratsuka, Yukiko, who is more meticulous, knows very well that the look in Chris's eyes when she was pressed on the mat in the gym just now when she looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka was not an ordinary look.

"Forget it, there's no rush. Xiaojing is just here to play and will go back to Neon later. Chris is unlikely to go to Neon, so maybe I won't have to worry about her then." Shaking her head, Yukiko felt a little uneasy and could only comfort herself in this way.

At the same time, in the bathroom of the master bedroom on the second floor.

The misty hot air slowly rises, constantly changing with the water drops falling from the shower head.

The fair body appears and disappears in the mist, which not only does not affect the beauty of the skin but makes it even more seductive.

Letting the warm water hit her body, Chris raised her hand and smoothed her wet hair to her back, her eyes full of aftertaste and enjoyment.

"My angel~" The face of Shizuka Hiratsuka who was so close to her just now and the breath spraying on her collarbone kept flashing back in her mind. Chris couldn't help but close her eyes in a daze.

. . .

"Chris, you are so slow." Sitting next to the dining table, Yukiko smiled and looked at Chris who was slowly walking down the stairs.

"Xiao Jing has been washing for a long time, and you just came down. You were obviously the first one to go up."

"It's okay, I usually take a quick shower. As for Sister Yukiko, doesn't it usually take her almost half an hour to take a shower?" Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled and shook her head. She knew her own personality and she didn't want to spend too much time taking a shower.

"I haven't had such a full activity in a long time. I couldn't help but soak in the bathtub for a while longer." With a faint blush on her face, Chris looked inexplicably lazy and seductive as she chuckled and walked to the dining table and sat down.

"You don't have to wait for me."

"It's okay, food tastes better when eaten together." Waving her hand casually, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was already a little hungry, picked up the knife and fork and started eating without hesitation.

"By the way, Shizuka, Yukiko, I may not be able to join you on the next trip." Chris seized the right opportunity and spoke softly while eating the breakfast on her plate in small bites.

"My agent suddenly told me that there was a job I needed to handle and I couldn't refuse."

"After all, little Chris is a hot star now. I'm actually surprised that you can take a day off to play with us." Yukiko said softly, chuckling and nodding.

"Thank you so much for your hospitality, Chris. I had a lot of fun." After swallowing the food in her mouth, Shizuka Hiratsuka laughed heartily.

"I won't say anything too polite. Chris, if you ever come to Neon, please let me know. I'll be the host then and will definitely treat you well."

"Then I'm looking forward to it." Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka's little face, Chris also smiled.

"Look forward to it! If you ask me about fun things to do in Neon, there's nothing I, Shizuka Hiratsuka, don't know!~"

. . .

"Chris is a really nice person." Turning her head slightly, Shizuka Hiratsuka said as she looked at the villa that was gradually getting smaller in her sight.

"What's wrong? You can't bear to let go of me after only knowing me for two days?" Yukiko said jokingly, glancing at Shizuka Hiratsuka with amusement.

"What? Isn't it a happy thing to meet a new friend who you get along well with?" Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the woman next to her with disdain. She was either causing trouble or on her way to causing trouble. She put her hands behind her head and leaned lazily on the passenger seat.

"Indeed, we are friends who get along very well with each other." Yukiko's eyes were a little subtle. Looking at her best friend who was lazy and didn't look very feminine at first glance, but was very masculine when she looked closely, she felt a little itchy.

"Really? Xiao Jing, this carefree guy has no idea how much I worry about her. If I hadn't been watching over you, you might have said goodbye to your single life in the Lighthouse Country!"

"Hmph~" Yukiko couldn't help but snort as she felt more and more unbalanced the more she thought about it.

"What's wrong, Sister Yukiko?" Shizuka Hiratsuka opened her eyes strangely and asked curiously, looking at Yukiko, whose hair was puffed up for no reason.

"Didn't Yusaku-nii call you this morning to say good morning?"

"No!" Yukiko looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka with disdain and suddenly felt a little bored. What was there to be angry about with this guy who didn't understand women's hearts at all?

Even when Shinichi was little, he told himself that Shizuka Hiratsuka felt more like an uncle to him.

"Xiao Jing, where are you planning to go for fun in the future?" Shaking her head, Yukiko felt that it would be better to change the topic to something that both of them could communicate about.

"Well, now that I'm here, I might as well go check out those famous tourist attractions on the Internet." Blinking, Shizuka Hiratsuka sat up straight, took out her mobile phone and swiped it casually.

"Last year, I came here with Shinichi, Ran, and the others. We've already covered some of the ground. This time, let's go see some other places we haven't been to."

"Going to a tourist attraction? That's fine too. Let's go home first and then plan the route." After hearing Shizuka Hiratsuka's arrangement, Yukiko nodded slightly. She knew that for Shizuka Hiratsuka, the natural scenery was more interesting.

"Will you come with me, Yukiko-san?"

"What's wrong? Is it not possible~" Yukiko looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka unhappily, and held the steering wheel with one hand, while she was about to poke Shizuka Hiratsuka's plumpness with the other hand in dissatisfaction.

"Drive carefully!" Shizuka Hiratsuka said helplessly, raising her hand to slap Yukiko's hand away.

"I just don't want Yusaku-nii to blame me for kidnapping his wife for so long."

"Don't worry about him. The most important thing to me right now is Xiao Jing~"

"Really, I'm so moved I'm about to cry~"

"Hehe, I'm glad to know!~"

PS: Do you want to guess the new character that will appear in the next chapter?

Prompt word: Dubai, white hair ~

Chapter 24: I am a woman too!

"So, Xiaojing, you are really happy traveling in the Lighthouse Country."

A soft moaning sound came from the phone, and Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the clouds outside the window and shook her head helplessly.

"Really, Yang No, why are you so angry again? I asked you at the time if you wanted to come with me, and it was you who said you had work to do and couldn't leave."

"I, I really do have a job! Don't you know how hard it is for me, Xiaojing? You actually despise me now!" What Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't expect was that after hearing her words, Yang No on the other end of the phone became even more angry.

"I didn't, it was Yang No..."

"Xiao Jing is a bully!"

"How could it be, it's..."

"Bullying!"

"...I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing. Haruno is so busy and works so hard, I shouldn't say anything sarcastic." Shaking her head helplessly, Shizuka Hiratsuka said to the phone with a helpless look.

"How about this, after I get back to Neon, we drive out for a couple of days? Work should also be balanced with rest, right?"
