Looking at Kaori, who seemed like she might choke herself, Yusei felt somewhat speechless.
"Finish swallowing the food in your mouth before you speak."
Kaori made an extra effort to eat the food in her mouth and washed it down with a big gulp of milk tea before feeling much better. She looked at Yusei in confusion.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be picking up girls right now?"
"So, your impression of me is 'a playboy'?" Yusei shrugged, not bothering to explain much.
He looked at Nishimura beside him.
"Please step out for a moment. The treatment won't take long. I have a secret medicine, and she'll recover very quickly."
"Ah? Oh, alright, alright." Nishimura still didn't understand what kind of medicine could cure a terminal illness in the blink of an eye.
But for now, she could only choose to believe Yusei, treating it as a last resort.
She left the hospital room and closed the door.
Yusei then looked at Athena, "Nana, what needs to be done?"
"Mhmm, it's very simple, Husband. First, lower your head." Athena looked up at Yusei.
"Lower my head, like this?" Yusei gradually lowered his head until it was just slightly above Athena's.
At that moment, Athena suddenly stood on her tiptoes, and a soft sensation was transmitted.
Yusei was somewhat startled but did not refuse.
For the next two or three minutes, the young girl with zero romantic experience watched this scene, receiving a full serving of 'public affection'.
After Yusei and Athena finished, Kaori pointed a trembling finger at Yusei.
"You... you beast! She's still so young!"
"Small is even better, isn't it?" Yusei deliberately put on an interested expression, "Besides small ones, I really like your type too."
"If you dare try anything, I'll scream loudly! The hospital is full of people!" Kaori looked at Yusei warily.
Yusei laughed heartily, then looked at Athena, "Nana, hurry up and fix her, then let's go home."
Athena lifted her head, looked at Yusei, a mysterious curve on her lips, "Husband, what are you saying? At a time like this, it should be you who does it."
"Me? But I don't have the ability to cure someone's terminal illness?" Yusei was puzzled.
"This one has already transferred the power to Husband just now."
"Uh, that kiss?"
"Correct."
"This one does not wish to kiss anyone other than Husband. Even if the other party is female, this one is very resistant." Athena said calmly.
Hearing this, Yusei naturally wanted to reward Athena, but according to her words, this ability required him to kiss Kaori...
Yusei subconsciously glanced at the corner of Kaori's mouth, where there were still some cake crumbs...
The corner of Yusei's mouth twitched slightly. He slowly walked towards Kaori.
"Wipe your mouth clean."
"Huh?" Kaori was stunned, before she could react, a tissue was already roughly wiping her mouth.
Before she could angrily ask what Yusei was doing, she felt her words being completely blocked.
"Mmph!"
Her first reaction was to push Yusei away with all her strength, but it was clearly useless.
Kaori struggled desperately but couldn't push Yusei back a single step.
Gradually, she found this experience strangely wonderful.
It was as if it could make one intoxicated. In this moment, she forgot all her worries, her illness, her fear of death.
It seemed that at this time, she felt incredibly fulfilled.
"Mmph..."
After what felt like a long time, Yusei released Kaori and looked at the girl on the sickbed.
The girl's face was now flushed crimson, timid and hesitant, not daring to look at Yusei.
It wasn't just fear, nor just shyness, but an expression twisted together from multiple emotions.
Yusei inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there was nothing strange about the other party, and he only tasted sweet chocolate and milk tea.
"How do you feel now? Your body should be fine, right?" Yusei asked.
Kaori was still caught between a maiden's shame, indignation, and strange feelings. Hearing Yusei's words, she was momentarily stunned.
Only then did she suddenly feel that her body seemed different.
She tried getting out of bed, standing on the floor. What she felt was no longer weakness in her legs, but the firmness of stepping on solid ground.
Kaori looked at her own standing body in disbelief.
"I... I'm healed?"
"That's right, your body is healed, completely recovered." As Yusei spoke, he opened the door and let Nishimura back in.
The moment the teacher saw her student actually out of bed and walking, her eyes nearly popped out.
"It's really cured?!"
She could hardly believe it, but soon she came back to her senses and bowed ninety degrees to Yusei.
"Thank you so much, Shinomiya-sama!" Her memory wasn't bad, so of course she remembered Yusei was the young master of the Shinomiya Family.
Yusei didn't explain, nor could he be bothered to explain, simply nodding directly, "I've fulfilled my promise. Now it's your turn."
After saying this, Yusei looked at the girl by the sickbed, pointed at his own lips with a teasing gesture, and then left.
Seeing Yusei's action, the girl's face turned red. She glared fiercely at his retreating back.
'It was that damned guy who took my first kiss!'
But then she thought of something and hesitated.
'Yet, he was also the one who saved my life...'
Hesitating for a moment, she was about to say 'Thank you', but Yusei had already left the room, and she didn't manage to chase after him.
Kaori seemed somewhat lost. Soon, she looked at her teacher.
"Sensei, earlier he mentioned a 'promise'. What promise was that?"
With her student cured and her legacy hopeful, Nishimura was very happy.
"This? It's simple. It's to create music for a game."
"A game?"
"Mhmm. Violin music isn't just for performances, and it can be used in various aspects."
"Sensei, that's not what I meant. I wanted to ask if that game is something he is making himself?"
"Eh? I really don't know about that. But it should be, right? After all, the Shinomiya young master couldn't possibly be working for someone else." Nishimura said with a smile, rubbing her student's soft head, "Even though you're better, remember to pay attention to rest during your rehabilitation training."
Kaori nodded absentmindedly. After a long while, as if she had decided something, she looked at her teacher.
"Sensei, can I go with you to learn how to make violin music for the game? I'm very interested in this too."
