"Um?"
Hachiyanagi Akisu raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise in her eyes.
"Really, after adding a little sake to Nissan, the taste has an indescribable feeling. It does not destroy the umami, but it tastes more aftertaste..."
"of course..."
The corner of Nakano Mayu's mouth was slightly raised, and he tried his best to suppress his proud expression, and said as if nothing had happened: "The soup before was like a beautiful JK but without any temperament. She picked her toes in public and spread her food all over the floor. Although at first glance, It will feel amazing, but over time you will get tired of it.”
"And after adding this little sake, it's like adding an elegant ladylike temperament to the originally rude and beautiful JK. No matter how you look at it, you won't get tired of it..."
"Well..."
After hearing this, the girl pondered for a moment and then asked, "So Nissan still likes eldest girls?"
"..."
Nakano Mayu tilted his head, looked at the serious-looking girl, and asked hesitantly: "Weren't we talking about cooking just now? Why is your focus in such a strange place?"
"Because when Nissan just mentioned the temperament of a young lady, his expression looked very...well...very subtle..." the girl explained calmly.
"No...nothing. I don't have any special hobbies. It doesn't make any difference to me whether I am a young lady or something else..."
He put down the small plate in his hand and said nonchalantly: "The main thing is that I like it. If you like it, it doesn't matter even if you are a goddess..."
"god..."
When the girl on the side heard his bold words, her eyes widened and she asked in shock: "Nissan actually likes... likes gods... this type?"
A black line appeared on the forehead of Nakano Mayu who was originally calm.
"Akiho, I'm using a metaphor, a metaphor!"
"Puch..."
When the girl saw him breaking through his guard, she suddenly smiled, with a rare playful look on her face.
"Nissan Kawaii..."
Seeing the girl's slightly playful smile, he realized that Mingsui, a usually serious guy, was joking with him just now.
It surprised me that...
Is this guy Akiho also capable of joking?
But that's right. Although Akiho always looks calm and calm, much more mature than the cute ghosts in the Yaliu family, after all, she is just a little girl who has just entered middle school...
Thinking of this, a smile similar to the girl's appeared on his lips, and he raised his hand to stroke the girl's short, ear-length hair that was tied into a ponytail for cooking.
The girl's original playful smile disappeared in an instant, and even her body stiffened. Her red lips murmured slightly, not knowing what to say.
Naturally, Nakano Mayu didn't notice the subtle change in the girl's expression, and just counterattacked in a similar manner: "Akiho-chan looks very kawaii when she smiles..."
"Ni...Nisan..."
Akiho suddenly took two steps back, out of the reach of Nakano Mayu's palm, and then said expressionlessly:
"You can say whatever you want to the opposite sex... but it's not okay to say such things..."
"Um?"
Nakano Mayu retracted his palm in surprise and turned to the little girl in front of him whose height was only just up to his chest. His tone unconsciously contained a doting tone: "But Akiho-chan is still just a girl now, and she can only be regarded as a younger sister to me. , not considered to be of the opposite sex..."
"..."
Hearing this, Hachiyanagi Akisui bit her lower lip and did not answer.
After a while, the girl reached out and took the small plate and spoon from his hand, and at the same time said lightly: "Nisan, please wait in the living room for a while, you can eat soon..."
There seemed to be a faint sense of coldness and alienation in the girl's words, as if she had returned to the unfamiliarity when they first met, as if the playful demeanor just now was all his illusion, which made Nakano Mayu's eyebrows slightly raised.
Did you just say something wrong?
He looked at the girl who turned around and started cooking the ingredients again, feeling a little confused.
"Okay... then I'll call Riho and the others..."
"Well, that's troublesome for Nissan..."
Nakano Mayu walked out and walked slowly alone in the corridor on the second floor of Hachiyanagi's house.
I shouldn’t have said anything wrong just now, right?
Do you want to ask Akiho-chan later and apologize to her?
Maybe you feel wrong?
Nakano Mayu, who was confused, frowned and walked towards Riho-chan's room, and happened to meet the girl who had finished combing her hair on the way.
"What's wrong? Pervert-san is frowning so tightly. Is he dissatisfied with our Yatsuryu family?"
The girl came up and made a joke with a smile.
When Nakano Mayu heard the girl's teasing, he rolled his eyes: "The only thing I'm dissatisfied with is you, a daughter of the Yayanagi family. You don't even understand the basic common sense of asking for help from others. If you do this again next time, I will be angry." oh..."
"Pooh..."
Hachiyanagi Risui spat softly, walked up to him, and asked him as if nothing had happened:
"Then why are you looking so sad? Are you on your period?"
"Idiot, men don't have their menstrual periods!"
"whee..."
The girl laughed playfully and pulled him toward the living room.
Nakano Mayu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't tell her what Mingsui might have been angry with him about just now.
After all, they are sisters. When these words get out, Risui may go to Mingsui to chat, which will make Mingsui feel that she is a man who likes to gossip behind his back.
I'd better send a message to ask Mingsui tonight...
After all, she is a little girl, and her anger should go away quickly...
But he still doesn't quite understand the reason why Mingsui suddenly became cold...
Do you think it's rude to compare her to a younger sister?
Nakano Mayu scratched his head and followed Riho back to the living room.
"By the way, Mingsui asked me to call you just now that it's almost time to eat..."
"Well, it's almost time. Then you wait for me here. I'll go talk to my mother and help Akiho prepare the dishes..."
While the girl was talking, she put aside some debris on the low table in the living room, and then walked out.
"Don't you need to call me Aiho?"
Nakano Mayu asked in a daze.
"No, that guy will come up when he smells it..."
"Is that so? Let me help you prepare together..."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out with Riho-chan.
The girl didn't stop her when she saw this, and the two of them came to the kitchen together.
Mingsui was wearing a small apron and was rinsing her palms by the sink. When she saw the two walking into the kitchen side by side, her expressionless face changed slightly, and she pursed her lips and said:
"Sister, Nissan...it's just right, it's time to eat..."
After saying that, she took the initiative to carry the dishes and walked out. When she passed by Nakano Mayu, she nodded slightly, as if what Nakano Mayu was struggling with just now was his own illusion.
Nakano Mayu scratched his head and looked at Mingsui's back leaving the kitchen with some confusion.
"What's wrong?"
Riho Hachiyanagi was about to serve the food when she accidentally caught the sight of the boy next to her and subconsciously asked, "Is there anything dirty on Akiho's back?"
"No...no...I just think Akiho-chan's apron is quite cute. I can buy one for Nanako..."
"It's really cute. My mother buys all the daily necessities at home. She just likes these cute things..."
"Then I'll ask Aunt Kaori where she bought it later..."
Nakano Mayu looked back thoughtfully, turned around and said.
