Following the path from his memory, Bai Yuze slowly walked back the way he came.
Tuanzi returned home, closed the door, and leaned against it, pressing her hand to her rapidly beating heart.
At this moment, Tuan Ma also came out of the kitchen. Seeing Yui Yuigahama's unusual expression, she smiled and asked,
"Did Bai Jun leave?"
"Yes."
"Alright, it's good he left, otherwise I would have been embarrassed."
Tuan Ma had indeed gone to buy oysters, but because she was constantly thinking about her daughter's relationship with Bai Yuze, she didn't buy any other dishes... meaning the only food she bought was oysters...
It was his first time visiting, and serving a whole table of oysters to her daughter's boyfriend... she was afraid her daughter would be 'eaten' again... Moreover, young people nowadays are all strong and healthy; it would be terrible if she caused him to hold back.
Tuan Ma put all the bought oysters into the refrigerator and smiled at Tuanzi.
"Shall we go out to eat?"
"Yes!"
Bai Yuze turned a few corners and returned to Kushida Kikyo's house. He pressed the doorbell, and immediately, a thumping sound of footsteps on the floor echoed from inside.
Then the door was pulled open violently; the force of the wind almost gave Bai Yuze a cold. As if knowing, Bai Yuze immediately opened his arms to welcome Kushida Kikyo's hug.
With the soft jade in his arms, Bai Yuze smiled and reached out to stroke Kushida Kikyo's hair.
"I'm back."
"Welcome back."
Kushida Kikyo didn't let go after speaking. Instead, she leaned in close to Bai Yuze and sniffed carefully.
"Something's wrong!"
"Huh?"
"Nine out of ten, something is very wrong!"
Kushida Kikyo smelled a scent on Bai Yuze that wasn't hers. That smell could only mean two things.
One was a girl's body fragrance! The second was that some boy also used this brand of shampoo and shower gel!
But why would Bai Yuze, with nothing better to do, be hugging and cuddling with a boy? Just imagining it sent shivers down her spine. So! The scheming frog has been touching your belly!
Bai Yuze is having an affair!
"Bastard! Are you secretly seeing someone behind my back?"
Bai Yuze: ???
No, sis! Did you turn it on? Or has it never been off?
"Get in here!"
Kushida Kikyo practically dragged Bai Yuze through the door. Daring to have an affair behind her back? He must face family discipline!
Bai Yuze was dragged onto the sofa by Kushida Kikyo. She sat directly on him, looking down at him.
"Speak! When did this happen? Tell me everything!"
"Uh... if I had to explain it carefully, it's not exactly an affair, but rather..."
Bai Yuze hadn't finished speaking when Kushida Kikyo's foot, clad in a white sock, stepped on his face, forcing him to close his mouth.
"Bastard! You really are having an affair! Just wait until I teach you a lesson!"
Kushida Kikyo was so angry her teeth ached. She lifted her foot and tried to shove it into Bai Yuze's mouth. As for the issue of exposure, she didn't care at all; after being completely 'eaten,' why would she still care about that?
Bai Yuze rolled over to dodge, grabbed Kushida Kikyo's foot, and with a gentle tug, made her lose her balance. Bai Yuze immediately turned the tables, pinning Kushida Kikyo down.
No matter what Kushida Kikyo tried, it was useless. She was like a lamb fallen into a tiger's den, with only one fate awaiting her: to be devoured.
"Idiot." A tear slowly fell from the corner of Kushida Kikyo's eye. She deliberately avoided looking into Bai Yuze's eyes. "I worried about you so much, and here you are having fun with other women. If that's the case, I'll leave."
Kushida Kikyo was furious, and after the anger came the grievance. She had worried about Bai Yuze so much, sent him so many messages, and even ran to the police station to argue with the police.
The result... this is how Bai Yuze repaid her. Suddenly, she felt it would be better for her to rot away, like those delinquent girls who fall in love with bad boys, get abandoned, and then die confusedly on the street...
"Ouch!"
Kushida Kikyo glared angrily at Bai Yuze. This scoundrel in front of her not only betrayed her but also wanted to bully her. He was going too far! She, Kushida Kikyo, was no pushover!
Then her butt received another slap, and she instantly quieted down...
"What are you thinking about all day?"
Bai Yuze was a bit helpless. Based on his understanding of Kushida Kikyo, if he didn't intervene and interrupt, a melodramatic romance revenge plot would probably be fully concocted in her mind.
"Hmph, do as you please, kill or dissect me. I won't even flinch if you do it first and then kill me!"
Kushida Kikyo's nonchalant attitude made Bai Yuze laugh. Bai Yuze released Kushida Kikyo and instead pulled her into his arms. To prevent her from escaping, he held her a little tighter.
Seeing no escape, Kushida Kikyo stopped struggling.
"Thank you for everything you've done for me, Kikyo. You worked hard."
"Heh heh, I wouldn't dare. After all, it would be truly impolite to disturb your enjoyment."
Kushida Kikyo's mouth was as if poisoned, but if her sharp tongue wasn't aimed at Bai Yuze, its power would probably be even greater.
Bai Yuze cupped Kushida Kikyo's face with both hands and smiled at her.
"Do you want to hear what happened?"
"Bastard, is this something glorious to share?!"
Since Kushida Kikyo's cheeks were covered by Bai Yuze's hands, her pronunciation was more or less amusing.
"Then are you willing to listen?"
"Listen! Why wouldn't I listen!"
Kushida Kikyo also got excited. She wanted to see what kind of abilities the person who could steal her boyfriend had. Was she prettier than her? Better body? Smarter? Or could she endure more? Was she more skilled?
But shouldn't men prefer someone inexperienced and gentle? That would offer a greater sense of a first-time experience and conquest.
"Let me think, it probably started from the first dungeon..."
Bai Yuze recounted everything he had experienced to Kushida Kikyo, including the dungeon he had just been through.
Kushida Kikyo fell into contemplation. Bai Yuze initially thought she was quite bothered and was about to speak when Kushida Kikyo spoke first.
"So... I wasn't the one whose corner was dug, but rather I was the one who dug someone else's corner first?"
Kushida Kikyo's expression was first calm, then surprised, and finally, she was smiling?!
Bai Yuze: ???
"What kind of strange focus point is that?"
So he told Kushida Kikyo a story for so long, and that's all Kushida Kikyo noticed?
"So, did I dig someone else's corner?"
Kushida Kikyo was incredibly serious; this answer seemed very important to her.
"Uh... I guess so!"
"Ah haha, then it's fine. As long as I'm not the one being cheated on."
Bai Yuze: ???
Kushida Kikyo's mysterious behavior completely baffled Bai Yuze. Was there any difference between the two?
"Hmph hmph! I'll forgive you this time! There are two more, right? Only these two are allowed, no more!"
This was Kushida Kikyo's maximum tolerance. She could dig someone else's corner, but no one could dig hers.
It is well known that rules are meant to be broken, especially by those who like to set rules; they are the ones who most enjoy breaking them...
"Alright, I'll reluctantly forgive you. Don't let it happen again! Let's eat!"
Kushida Kikyo happily got off Bai Yuze, but she hadn't gone far when Bai Yuze grabbed her hand.
Kushida Kikyo uncharacteristically felt a pain in her lower back. She stiffly turned her head and smiled at Bai Yuze.
"Heh heh, stop messing around, it's time to eat."
"I'm not messing around. Your business is done, but mine isn't! For example, the matter of you putting your foot in my mouth..."
"Huh? Wasn't that a reward?"
Kushida Kikyo feigned ignorance, all the while trying to escape Bai Yuze's grip on her wrist.
"Is that so? Then I'll give you a good reward!"
Bai Yuze directly picked up Kushida Kikyo. Seeing this, Kushida Kikyo quickly reminded him,
"We haven't eaten yet!"
"It's fine, I'll just eat you."
Bai Yuze turned off the gas stove in the kitchen, then carried Kushida Kikyo upstairs.
This was more of a 'yes, but no' situation, not a firm 'stop!'.
