"W-what?!" Yamada Ryo bit her tongue hard, forcing herself to wake up. She hadn't come here to eat anything.

Want to have dinner together?

Fuck you.

She, she did it to...!

"Yeah!"

When Naruzawa intentionally bounced his arm, a feeling of weightlessness first swept through Yamada Ryo's limbs, and a tingling sensation ran down his spine.

When he regained consciousness, Yamada Ryo instinctively grabbed Narusawa Kaede's head.

I felt the touch of a hand on my thigh, and a warm current flowed over my lower abdomen.

This is completely different from what I had planned!

The girl's entire body froze instantly.

Naruzawa Kaede was half-forced into burying herself in Yamada Ryo's arms, her nose almost touching her lower abdomen. The scent emanating from her was complex, not pungent, but exceptionally warm.

The familiar scent of Yamada Ryo carried another familiar aroma, one I'd only ever smelled at Eliza Shimizu's place.

Perhaps Liang used Eliza perfume?

No, now is not the time to think about these things.

They hugged each other like that, and suddenly their hearts calmed down.

Suppressing the itching on his legs and lower abdomen, Yamada Ryo stood on high ground and looked into the distance. He could see both Shimizu Eliza's sly smile and Hiroi Kikuri's cheerful and friendly smile.

Hiroi Kikuri's smile was so lewd.

Yamada Ryo's nose tingled, and her eyes welled up with tears.

The tears that I had forced back down in the internet cafe are now welling up again.

A warm current flowed from my heart to my limbs, and the warmth around me felt so familiar.

Burying his face in the soft fabric, Mingze Feng said with emotion, "Ryo, how should I put it... seeing you again, seeing you come out of there... it's truly heartwarming..."

Open, happy, and things like that.

Yamada Ryo tilted her head back, opened her eyes wide, and tried to hold back her tears.

Yamada Ryo's lips trembled as she said, "I'm not happy at all?"

What a joke!

Hugging, hugging and cuddling, who am I to you?!

Taking a deep breath, Yamada Ryo forced a stern expression, trying to regain her usual posture. But this posture made it impossible for her to be assertive.

Not to mention that Yamada Ryo had just recovered from his dejected state and still had dark circles under his eyes.

Mingze Feng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said, "Liang, it's so good to be able to hold you like this again."

Despite the strange feeling in his body, Yamada Ryo said defiantly, "Then put me down."

Then, Mingze Feng hugged her a little tighter.

Mingze Feng said, "...I was thinking that when I have some free time later, I'll pull you out even if it means breaking my leg. And if you can't be cured—of course I'll take care of your lower body."

Yamada Ryo: "I said I'm not happy! I don't want to!"

Mingze Feng: "......"

Yamada Ryo: "You...if you heard me, put me down right now..."

Mingze Feng: "......"

Then, Mingze Feng hugged her a little tighter.

Yamada Ryo: "Isn't this just being a pervert?"

Mingze Feng shook his head.

"Shall we eat together?"

"You, you put me down first!"

"You agree first."

"You and I..."

Yamada Ryo suddenly realized that the man holding her now was just as shameless as she was.

Yamada Ryo lowered her head, her face almost touching Narusawa Kaede's. The girl was practically grinding her teeth to powder, now displaying a fierce expression.

Mingze Feng walked on as if no one else was there.

Seeing his actions, Yamada Ryo immediately understood that Narusawa Kaede, that bastard, could definitely carry her through the entire supermarket, then take her to the checkout counter as if no one else was there, and finally say that it would all be paid for together.

Because she would do the same.

Are you buying girls here?!

For now, I'll agree.

Yamada Ryo's eyes happened to catch a glimpse of Hiroi Kikuri biting into an ice pop, and the words that were about to come out were swallowed back down.

An inexplicable anger welled up inside me.

Yamada Ryo pressed a corner of his mouth to his lips and said softly, "Give me a kiss."

"what?"

Naruzawa Kaede didn't hear what Yamada Ryo had just muttered. He was only focused on walking forward, and Yamada Ryo's voice was very soft, like a mosquito's buzz.

Raising his eyes, Naruzawa Kaede immediately saw the mischievous smile on Yamada Ryo's lips.

What does she want to do?

Mingze Feng saw that the girl lowered her head, her yellow eyes filled with a strange mockery, and her pinkish-white lips opening and closing.

Yamada Ryo said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Kiss me, right here."

If there is a moment of silence in the world, it must be these three seconds.

Mingze Feng almost thought he was hallucinating.

But Yamada Ryo, held high in his arms, still had a wicked smile on his lips, his eyes filled with provocation, and his upturned eyes looked cunning no matter how you looked at him.

Ah, that's Hiroi behind me, isn't it?

Even without turning around or looking anywhere else, Naruzawa Kaede figured out what Yamada Ryo was thinking.

Blinking, Ming Zefeng no longer suppressed his smile and asked with a grin, "Liang, are you sure it's just a kiss?"

That smile reminded Yamada Ryo of Eliza Shimizu, and he had a feeling that she was up to something.

Yamada Ryo thought it over. Being kissed wasn't a big deal. Compared to being slapped repeatedly in front of Hiroi Kiku, it was worth it.

"What, you don't dare?" he said, his words a provocation.

Then, in the time it took Yamada Ryo to even blink.

Mingze Feng held the hem of the girl's dress.

A sliver of her fair skin was visible.

When you bring your cheek close, you can feel the heat emanating from the inside of the clothes.

Upon arriving here, the air is completely filled with the scent of Yamada Ryo.

chirp~

A gentle touch landed on Yamada Ryo's lower abdomen, carrying a slight warmth that vanished in an instant. The sudden breath from his nose caused a muscle to involuntarily contract.

Yamada Ryo's brain went blank for a moment.

no--

Not lips?!

Where did you kiss me?!

"That counts as a kiss."

As Naruzawa Kaede spoke, he licked the corner of his mouth. This scene, witnessed by the girl, made Yamada Ryo feel like dying. She didn't know how others would react.

My biggest mistake today was not taking a shower yesterday.

No, that's not a valid thought.

Yamada Ryo was completely bewildered. When she came to her senses, she was so angry that she almost jumped off Narusawa Kaede's arms: "You're cheating! It doesn't count!"

"You didn't explain it clearly yourself."

"Remember to mark the locations next time. I'm good at attacking point B. I'll show you my skills then—hiss—wait, wait a minute..."

Suddenly, a small hand pinched my earlobe.

It wasn't Yamada Ryo; the girl was still sitting in his lap, her hands carefully cradling Narusawa Kaede's head.

On the other side, Hiroi Kikuri was standing there. Her popsicle was gone, presumably she'd finished it. She put one hand to Narusawa Kaede's ear and said...

"Don't start your day with such vulgar language."

Chapter Thirty-Two: Taking a Solid Step Towards a Grand Harem

Hiroi Kikuri's gaze was slanted.

Mingze Feng realized that he was being asked to cooperate, but... how to cooperate?

At that moment, Hiroi Kikuri arrived suddenly, and Yamada Ryo struggled a bit before Narusawa Kaede gently placed her on the ground.

As her feet touched the ground again, Yamada Ryo's legs were still a little weak. She looked at Hiroi Kikuri's hand that was gripping Narusawa Kaede's ear with some concern.

Kikuri Hiroi loosened her grip and said, "Girls don't like hooligans, right, Ryo~"

Although he didn't know what Hiroi Kikuri was thinking, Yamada Ryo could sense a friendly signal.

Between Narusawa Kaede, who was deliberately teasing her, and Hiroi Kikuri, who came to protect her, Yamada Ryo narrowed her eyes and made a decision in two seconds.

"Yeah, Feng... he's a scoundrel."

Mingze Feng wanted to argue for himself: what's wrong with couples playing a little perverted games?

But before Narusawa Kaede could speak, Hiroi Kikuri hugged him tightly. She first pulled Narusawa's arm into her bosom, holding him with one hand, and then reached out her free hand to Yamada Ryo.

For a moment, silence fell between the three of them.

Mingze Feng suppressed his breathing, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a layer of cold sweat break out on his back.

Some people... are hesitant to move.

The main reason is that this scene felt so familiar.

The last time the three of us went downhill, and the tragic scene is still vivid in my mind.

The way that person left.

The way Hiroi Kikuri looked when she went downstairs that night...

We need to find a solution that involves three people and lasts a lifetime.

Mingze Feng could even hear the pounding of his own heart in his ears.

Yamada Ryo narrowed her eyes, pondering the other person's meaning. She felt that what she was seeing wasn't quite real.

If you want to stand by Feng's side, then let's all do it together.

If you want to have Feng all to yourself, then leave now and see who Feng will stand by.

—That's roughly the idea.

But she had already done so in the past month. In the past month, she had managed to pull half of Mingze Feng over to her side.

Is this... really okay? For the past month, Kaede has just been going back and forth between herself and Hiroi Kikuri.

If...we're together...

Yamada Ryo glanced at Shimizu Eliza, who was watching the scene unfold.

Although she hasn't played yet, Yamada Ryo has a feeling that she'll have to be added to the team sooner or later.
