Chapter 315: Big Sister, Are You a Masochist?
Jashin-chan's birthday fell on a Thursday, a weekday, but Ryohei Tanaka gave her a day off.
In the evening, he prepared a sumptuous dinner, and after dinner, he even arranged a birthday cake for her.
He treated her quite well!
After the birthday celebration—
Yurine took out the prepared gift, smiled at Jashin-chan with rare tenderness, and said: "Happy birthday."
"Is this... for me?"
Jashin-chan stared wide-eyed at the gift handed to her, a bit incredulous, then accepted it, feeling flattered.
"What the heck! You..."
She found herself quite moved!
"I don't know if you'll like it."
Yurine smiled gently.
"Hmm? What did you give me?" Jashin-chan looked up at Yurine, then unwrapped the gift expectantly.
Ryohei Tanaka and the others smiled and watched from the side; the scene was very heartwarming for a moment.
"..."
"A scarf!"
Soon, Jashin-chan pulled an orange-red scarf out of the bag and nimbly wrapped it around her neck.
She felt it and said happily: "It's quite warm~."
"A very practical gift," Medusa said with a sweet smile, her hands behind her back.
"Mmh."
"The price of this scarf is 10,500 yen..."
Yurine held up a slender white finger to Jashin-chan and said seriously:
"My birthday is the day after tomorrow. Jashin-chan, remember to give me a return gift worth more than a hundred times this value, otherwise, I'll beat you up."
"—Ha!?"
Hearing this, Jashin-chan instantly couldn't be happy anymore. She looked at Yurine in disbelief and bristled:
"What kind of joke are you making!? A hundred times! You should be secretly laughing if I can give you a gift of equal value!"
"I don't care." Yurine spat out three words lightly.
Jashin-chan shouted: "I don't care either!"
"Anyway, if I don't receive a gift worth more than a hundred times the value, I'll beat you up!" She threatened calmly.
"You might as well beat me to death right now!" Jashin-chan leaned back in anger and responded furiously.
(#`皿´)
"Hmm? As you wish!"
Hearing this, Yurine clenched her fist and made a gesture to punch her.
Startled, Jashin-chan shuddered and quickly hid behind Ryohei Tanaka, using him as a shield, and said aggrievedly: "Kin, quickly control your woman; she's too excessive!"
"Okay, okay, I'll control her."
Ryohei Tanaka agreed verbally, scooped up the 'charging' Yurine by the waist, and easily carried her on his shoulder.
He casually held onto Yurine's slender and beautiful legs, turned his head, and said: "I'll go upstairs and teach her a good lesson."
Then, he carried Yurine, who was feigning struggle, away.
"Uh..."
Those who were originally laughing and watching the fun suddenly stopped laughing.
"Whoa—! Feels like being forcibly fed a huge mouthful of dog food!"
Persephone II placed her left hand on her soft little belly and covered her mouth with her right hand, putting on an expression of 'I'm stuffed, I really can't eat anymore'.
"And it was the kind that caught us off guard..."
Yusa smiled helplessly.
Minos crossed her arms, agreeing:
"Impossible to guard against!"
"..."
"So envious of Yurine, getting to be taught a lesson~."
When it came to Lucoa, the atmosphere instantly changed.
Everyone couldn't help but look at her—
"Big sister, are you a masochist?"
Quetzalcoatl looked at Lucoa and asked seriously.
"I'm not, just kidding, purely a joke!"
Lucoa hurriedly waved her hands to deny it, deeply afraid of being mistaken for a masochist by Quetzalcoatl, who might then make a move on her.
That would be bad!
"Oh."
A look of disappointment actually appeared on Quetzalcoatl's usually expressionless face.
Seeing this, Lucoa couldn't help wiping the sweat from her forehead.
"Eh~, do you guys still want to eat the remaining cake? (´﹃｀)"
When it came to Elma, the atmosphere changed again.
"I want to eat!"
Kanna raised her hand with a blank, cute expression.
"I don't want any more."
Kyon-Kyon shook her head.
"I can't eat anymore either." Ran-Ran rubbed her belly, responding with a happy face.
The others also spoke up successively, indicating they didn't want any more—among them, Pecola wanted to eat but couldn't fit it in, so she could only regretfully give up.
So in the end, the remaining cake was split half-and-half between Elma and Kanna and devoured completely.
...
Room 305.
"Click—!"
Ryohei Tanaka closed the door and locked it.
He turned on the air conditioner in the room, carried Yurine to the bedroom, and threw her onto the bed.
"I just promised Jashin-chan I'd teach you a good lesson..."
Ryohei Tanaka took off his jacket, draped it over the back of the single sofa nearby, raised the corners of his mouth at Yurine, and teased:
"Yurine, will you cooperate?"
"Mmh...!"
Yurine sat up from the bed in a duck-sitting posture, put her hands on her waist, looked at Ryohei Tanaka amusingly, and scolded:
"Actually asking me to cooperate with you... Ryohei-kun, do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
"How do you have the nerve to say such things?"
"...Relying on thick skin?" Ryohei Tanaka tilted his head.
"I can tell!"
Yurine leaned back tactically, then saw Ryohei Tanaka approaching...
"..."
One must do what one promised others. Ryohei Tanaka spanked Yurine's butt hard, then engaged in a live-action 1v1 PK with her.
By the time the two finished fighting and came out of the bathroom, it was already 11 PM.
Ryohei Tanaka turned off the ceiling light in the bedroom, leaving only a few ambient lights, and lay on the bed with Yurine.
"This weekend, want to go spend some time just the two of us?"
He suddenly spoke.
"Where to?"
Yurine moved her gaze away from the phone screen and turned to look at Ryohei Tanaka.
"Nagano Prefecture, Achi Village."
Ryohei Tanaka shook his phone and said: "I checked the weather forecast. The weather will be very good for the next two days, very suitable for camping."
"I want to go!"
The corners of Yurine's lips curled up, and she turned sideways to hug Ryohei Tanaka.
Ryohei Tanaka smiled and said:
"Then I'll book the campsite first. We'll drive there on Saturday, departing from Tokyo... stay one night, and come back on Sunday. Afterward, I'll throw you a birthday dinner!"
"Ryohei-kun."
"Hmm?"
"I'm very happy! How do you want me to reward you?"
Yurine looked at Ryohei Tanaka with lingering eyes, a charming smile appearing on her face.
"Kiss me."
Ryohei Tanaka tapped his cheek lightly with his finger.
"Mua—!" Yurine immediately leaned over and planted a forceful kiss on the spot Ryohei Tanaka pointed to.
