Chapter 38 Night, Preparation
Chapter 38 Night, Preparation
Night was falling.
After dinner, in the living room on the second floor.
After eating her fill, Qingshui Ai lay contentedly on the sofa, like a carefree salted fish.
"Xiao Zhen, your cooking is absolutely delicious."
"Come here and let your older sister give you a hug, as a reward."
Shimizu Ai reached out her hand, like a tyrannical and incompetent ruler, and touched Hoshino Makoto, who was sitting next to Shimizu Setsukatsu.
"Smack."
Shimizu Setsukatsu lightly patted the back of Shimizu Ai's hand.
"Auntie, what are you doing?"
Shimizu Ai withdrew her hands, and seeing the cold gaze that Shimizu Setsukatsu cast at her, she subconsciously shrank to the side.
"Look at you, what kind of things are you saying? You don't act like an older sister at all."
"Shimizu Ai, I really need to teach you a lesson. I think you've got too much free time on your hands."
Shimizu Setsukatsu sat on the sofa, arms crossed, eyes slightly narrowed.
"I've already decided on your tutor. Isn't your older sister a university student at the University of Tokyo?"
"Spring break is coming up soon, so I'm planning to have your older sister recommend a few good students from your school to give you some good tutoring."
"Ah!" Shimizu Ai sat up straight immediately.
"Auntie, isn't spring break supposed to start this Friday? Why are you finding me a tutor?"
Shimizu Setsukatsu glanced at Shimizu Ai, seemingly having seen through her inner thoughts.
"Shouldn't we take advantage of the spring break to catch up on lessons?"
As if struck by a sudden thought, Shimizu Ai said in disbelief:
"Auntie, does this mean I have to attend tutoring every single day of spring break?"
"No, Auntie, I'll go crazy!"
For Ai Shimizu, having to attend extra classes every day during spring break was pure hell.
"Auntie, please don't make me have to attend tutoring classes every day during spring break. I can do anything."
Shimizu Setsukyo rubbed her temples, her pretty face slightly furrowed.
She sighed softly, "Am I some kind of devil? How could I possibly make you tutor me every day?"
Shimizu Ai's eyes lit up.
Shimizu Ai starts laughing.
"We have two days of tutoring every three days, and then we take three days off and two days of tutoring."
Shimizu Ai is no longer laughing.
"Alright, that's enough about that. I'm going to take a bath now."
Shimizu Setsukatsu stood up and casually ruffled the hair of Hoshino Makoto, who was sitting next to her.
"Xiao Zhen, don't listen to your third sister too much. She'll say anything."
On the other side of the sofa, Ai Shimizu was secretly listening.
She didn't refute this, because Shimizu Setsukyo was right.
Unlike her older sister, Shimizu Rin, who is a homebody, Shimizu Ai has always been cheerful.
However, he restrained himself somewhat in front of Hoshino Makoto.
That's normal. Who wouldn't restrain themselves in front of an attractive person of the opposite sex?
As soon as Shimizu Setsukatsu left the living room, Shimizu Ai moved closer to Hoshino Makoto.
"Xiao Zhen, come here and let your big sister give you a hug."
Ai Shimizu said matter-of-factly, "Isn't it normal for a younger brother to hug his older sister?"
"Sister, I'm not a child anymore."
Hoshino Makoto refused Shimizu Ai's request.
Yesterday, when Shimizu Setsugeki hugged him, Hoshino Makoto felt a little awkward.
It's as if I'm just a plaything in a woman's hands.
For Shimizu Setsukatsu, she is concerned about both her height and age.
Hoshino felt that in this aunt's eyes he was probably just a child.
So when Shimizu Setsugeki hugged him, he only felt a little awkward.
But to Shimizu Ai, his older sister, he was no longer a child.
In terms of height, I reached Shimizu Ai's chest.
In terms of age, he is her younger brother.
Although this younger brother is only in name.
"Then can I have my cheeks pinched by my older sister?"
Shimizu Ai did not feel disappointed after being rejected by Hoshino Makoto.
It seems like what she just said was actually a joke.
Of course, this is fake.
Shimizu Ai really wanted to hug her younger brother.
But she felt that her younger brother would probably reject her idea.
Being rejected by her younger brother is very embarrassing for an older sister.
That's why she tentatively said it in a joking tone.
Just like confessions between young people, sometimes they are said unintentionally or in a joking tone.
Even if rejected, you can easily let it go without affecting the relationship.
Of course, the simple-minded Shimizu Ai didn't think of it this way.
She just didn't want to feel embarrassed if her request as the older sister was rejected.
"Pinch the face?"
Hoshino Makoto blinked.
"That's right, it's normal for a younger brother to let his older sister pinch his cheek, isn't it?"
Shimizu Ai's smiling eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation.
Last night, Hoshino Makoto fell asleep in the computer chair in Shimizu Ai's bedroom, with his head resting on her lap.
Shimizu Ai wanted to pinch her younger brother's cheek.
Unfortunately, Hoshino woke up before the final step was taken.
Moreover, these past two days, Shimizu Ai has seen her aunt Shimizu Setsukatsu pinching Hoshino Makoto's cheeks from time to time.
My aunt can do it, and so can she.
Hoshino opened his mouth, wanting to refuse Shimizu Ai's request.
He didn't dislike or resent Shimizu pinching his cheeks.
If Shimizu Ai hadn't asked him and had just done it directly, Hoshino Makoto wouldn't have said anything.
After all, she is my sister in name only.
This isn't some intimate gesture.
But now that Ai Shimizu has taken the initiative to ask, this formal action makes him feel that he has no choice but to express his attitude.
No! How could I have such a thought?
Hoshino Makoto suddenly realized that his thinking was narrow-minded.
When Shimizu Ai took the initiative to ask him, wasn't it more out of respect for herself?
Besides, it was just a pinch on the cheek, not some shameful intimate gesture.
Hoshino Makoto agreed to Shimizu Ai's request.
He nodded: "Sister, you can pinch it."
He agreed! Xiao Zhen actually agreed.
Shimizu Ai blinked, excited.
[You've agreed to Shimizu Ai's request, excitement level +5]
[Ai Shimizu is extremely excited, excitement level +6]
Two notifications for Qing Shui Ai's emotional value popped up.
What's there to be excited about?
Auntie and second sister Shimizu Rin have pinched it countless times.
In internet parlance, Hoshino Makoto felt that his third sister was a bit like an innocent college girl.
"Little brother, I'm coming."
Shimizu Ai reached out her hand without hesitation, as if afraid that Hoshino Makoto would change his mind, and pinched her younger brother's cheek.
[Shimizu Ai finds your cheeks quite pleasant to pinch, liking level +6]
[Shimizu pinches your cheeks, satisfaction +3]
Shimizu Ai pinched Hoshino Makoto's cheek. She looked at the outstanding young boy in front of her, his pale and cute face letting her rub it.
This feeling is just so amazing.
No wonder Auntie always likes to pinch Xiaozhen's cheeks.
"Sister, are you done?"
"Squeeze it again."
"Sister, I think I heard the bathroom door open."
"alright."
Upon hearing Hoshino Makoto's words, Shimizu Ai immediately became obedient.
If her aunt saw her like this, she would definitely say that she doesn't act like a proper older sister.
Hoshino didn't mishear.
Less than half a minute later, Shimizu Setsukatsuki, having finished her bath, came out of the bathroom.
"Xiao Zhen, Xiao Ai, do you want to take a shower now?"
"If you don't shower, I'll turn off the bathroom heater."
Shimizu Ai raised her hand: "Auntie, I want to take a bath."
Finish washing up quickly so I can go live sooner.
Shimizu Ai went back to her room to get her clothes, and then went to take a shower.
Only Hoshino Makoto and Shimizu Setsukatsu, who had just finished taking a shower, remained in the living room.
Shimizu Setsukatsu wore a simple short-sleeved shirt, her voluptuous figure swaying gracefully.
She sat next to Hoshino Makoto, holding a hairdryer, and dried her hair.
"Auntie, I'm going to play with my second sister."
At that moment, Hoshino Makoto suddenly spoke.
