Chapter 187 At Dawn, a Heart-Pounding Scene
The next morning, Kazuka Toyohama, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a gentle knock on the door.
"Master, are you awake?"
Hearing her older sister's voice, the girl rubbed her sleepy eyes a few times and instinctively tried to respond.
Suddenly, a large, strong hand covered her mouth.
Feeling the heat emanating from the large hand, and gazing at Bai Chen's handsome face, which appeared even more striking under the sunlight.
Toyohama Kazuka instantly recalled what had happened the previous night.
{Baka, how did I end up sleeping here last night...}
Just as Fengbin and Xiang were inwardly condemning themselves for their lack of ambition, a slight "click" sound suddenly rang out.
Although the sound was not loud, it sounded like thunder to her at that moment.
She turned her head sharply, and when she saw the doorknob slowly turning, the color in the girl's face disappeared rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Just as she was wondering what to do, Bai Chen suddenly lifted the thin blanket covering him and gestured to her.
Confused and disoriented, Toyohama Kazuka didn't have time to think much about it and quickly crawled inside.
While hiding inside, she didn't forget to gather her clothes.
Almost at the same time he crawled inside, the door was opened.
Wearing a pale white lounge dress, Mai Sakurajima, who was charming and beautiful even without makeup, slowly walked in.
Upon seeing Lin Chuan leaning against the headboard, reading a book, a gentle smile appeared on her lips: "Master, breakfast is ready."
Slightly shifting his body, Bai Chen looked up at the beautiful woman, as radiant as a rose after the rain, and nodded gently.
"Okay, thank you for your help, Mai."
Upon hearing this, Mai Sakurajima smiled and said, "I'm a little uncomfortable with Master being so polite~ Let me help you change and wash up."
As she spoke, she moved her shapely, ivory-carved legs slowly toward him.
Kazuka Toyohama, wrapped in a thin blanket, heard footsteps getting closer and closer.
My heart leaped into my throat, and my palms were soaked with sweat.
Given her current situation, if the other party finds out, it will all be over.
Just as she was beginning to feel despair, Bai Chen's voice, which was usually incredibly hateful but now sounded so pleasant, rang out again.
"No need, I'm fine on my own."
"Alright then, I'll go wake He Xiang up first."
"Well, let's go!"
After a moment, the footsteps could be heard gradually fading away until they disappeared completely.
Fengbin Hexiang breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly peeked out from under the thin blanket.
After taking a few deep breaths of fresh air, she suddenly noticed Bai Chen's amused gaze.
{Baga~}
She cursed under her breath, then quickly grabbed her clothes and dressed.
After all, my older sister had said before she left that she would wake me up.
If we don't hurry, we'll be exposed.
Under the pressure of life and death, Feng Bin and Xiang went all out.
It took less than a minute to get everything sorted out.
Finally, after giving Bai Chenji a disdainful look and a heavy snort, he quickly left.
Watching the girl's flustered figure, Bai Chen's lips curled into a faint smile of amusement.
Only after his figure had completely disappeared did he slowly withdraw his gaze, humming an unknown tune, and leisurely begin to tidy up...
In a bedroom filled with girlish charm, Mai Sakurajima frowned slightly as she looked at the empty bed.
Just then, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind her: "Sister~"
Her delicate brows gradually relaxed, and Mai Sakurajima slowly turned around: "Tomikazuchi..."
As he was speaking, his movements suddenly stopped.
When Feng Bin and Xiang arrived in a hurry, their hearts skipped a beat upon seeing this.
Could it be that something went wrong?
Fortunately, her years of performing career have honed her extremely strong mental fortitude.
Therefore, although she was terrified inside, she did not show it on the surface.
With her little head tilted slightly to the side, Feng Bin and Xiang asked innocently, "Sister, is something wrong?"
"Wako, your clothes..."
Reminded by this, Toyohama Kazuka realized that due to her earlier panic, all the buttons on her pajamas were out of place.
You can still faintly see some beautiful scenery.
A blush suddenly appeared on her face, and Feng Binhexiang gently stuck out her pink and delicate little tongue a few times.
"I got up in such a hurry that I accidentally put on the wrong clothes."
Seeing the other person's expression, Mai Sakurajima's words, which were already on the tip of her tongue, instantly turned into a helpless sigh...
The next moment, she stretched out her snow-white, soft hand and gently rubbed that cute little head a few times.
"How old are you, girl? You're still so reckless."
"Luckily, Bai Chenjun didn't go out this morning, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing if we had run into each other."
Upon hearing this, Feng Bin and Xiang couldn't help but secretly grumble to themselves.
{That bastard has seen way more than that.}
However, on the surface, she still nodded her little head slightly, looking like a well-behaved little sister.
"I understand, I'll be more careful in the future."
Mai Sakurajima was very satisfied with her attitude.
Her movements became increasingly gentle as she said softly, "Hurry up and get ready. We'll have breakfast after you're done."
"Hmm~"
A moment later, when the two women arrived in the living room, they found that Bai Chen was already sitting at the dining table.
Looking at Feng Binhe, who had changed into a white dress, her brows showed less of her youthful innocence and more of her charm.
Bai Chen smiled knowingly, "You seem even more beautiful after just one night apart, Mai, what do you think?"
Kazuka Toyohama, who instantly understood the implied meaning, trembled slightly.
Meanwhile, Mai Sakurajima was equally aware of what had happened between the two.
After carefully examining his charming and lovely younger sister, he nodded slightly.
"Hmm~, it does seem to be prettier now."
Her translucent ears drooped, turning a deep crimson like blood, and the girl's voice was as soft as a mosquito's murmur.
"No, no, Onii-chan, please don't tease me~"
After a short while, he teased her a few more times.
Bai Chen said no more and focused on finishing the food in front of him.
Sitting opposite her, nibbling on her sandwich, a blush rose on her long, slender, snow-white neck...
Five or six minutes later, Feng Bin and Xiang, who had quickly finished their sandwiches, suddenly stood up from their seats.
"I've finished eating, it's time to go to class."
After saying that, he casually picked up his schoolbag from the sofa.
She hurried away, her short, white legs, as tender as freshly peeled bamboo shoots, taking her steps.
Judging from his figure, he seemed to be fleeing in panic...
Chapter 188 Teaching Mai the Way of Tea
As she watched Toyohama Kazuka leave, Sakurajima Mai's smile gradually faded.
Instead, a faint sense of melancholy prevailed.
"Bad master, are you feeling smug right now?"
He slowly walked to her side, gently extending his right arm to embrace her.
With a gentle smile playing on his lips, he showered Sakurajima Mai with sweet words, successfully turning her from gloom to joy.
At that moment, Bai Chen caught a glimpse of the exquisite tea set on the table that had not yet been put away.
He gently teased the adorable little pet with his right hand and asked in a soft voice.
Is Mai studying the tea ceremony?
"Hmm~, Master, do you also know about tea?"
"Know a little bit."
This isn't just Bai Chen bragging; one of his ex-girlfriends was a descendant of a tea ceremony family.
He learned a lot from the other person back then.
While I wouldn't say I've reached a high level of expertise, I've certainly achieved some success.
In a country like Japan, where people learn half of everything, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a "dimensional reduction attack."
On the other side, upon hearing Bai Chen's words, Sakurajima Mai couldn't help but purse her lips.
