But at this moment, there was a very regular knock on the bedroom door, and then the calm voice of the little maid whispered softly behind the door:

"Master Nakano...I'm coming in..."

Nakano Mayu and Nanako looked at each other at the same time, both with horrified expressions on their faces.

Why at this time?

He suddenly remembered that when he was cooking during the day, he seemed to have asked the little maid not to go to bed in a hurry at night, but to pay attention to his text messages?

But after he drank too much, he sent him a text message asking her to come back to him at night when everyone else fell asleep?

It's over...

There are too many things going on tonight...

I forgot about this incident and went to the Mariana Trench!

"Lixiang, please wait a moment, I have no clothes on..."

He quickly responded softly towards the door.

"Yes." Li Xiang's soft reply immediately came from outside the door.

"Nini? Why did the maid come to see you so late..." Nanako put her hands on the bed and bit his ears.

The girl leaned forward, and her large shirt and panda were affected by gravity, and they all deformed downwards, making them unyielding.

Nakano Mayu glanced past, feeling guilty in his heart.

Is this something that my brother can see?

Isn’t this nonsense!

He directly covered Nanako with the quilt, pressed her little head and pushed her into the quilt. At the same time, he bent his knees to make the quilt bulge into a big bag to cover up his sister's slender body.

"You go in and hide for a while, and we can talk again after I coax Lixiang away."

"Nini, don't use so much force...um..."

Before Nanako finished speaking, Nakano Mayu had already called for ‘next person’.

"Come in, Lixiang."

"Click..."

There was a soft knock on the door, and Li Xiang, wearing a white cotton shirt, pajamas and pajamas, walked in from the door, although her face was calm.

But the young man who already knew this little maid thoroughly could still detect the fluctuations in her heart from the different sounds of her footsteps.

"Master Nakano..."

After Li Xiang entered, she just lightly covered the bedroom door without closing it.

And he stood far away from the bed, not within reach of his arms.

Tsk...

Seeing this situation, Nakano Mayu secretly smacked his tongue.

Doesn't this little maid think of herself as some perverted and anxious wolf?

Although I had thoughts about this during the day.

After all, men are...

Sometimes it is easier to lose control, especially when facing a beautiful girl with whom you have had a close relationship, it is even more difficult.

But now after experiencing this series of things, he is exhausted. He just wants to finish everything quickly and then have a good sleep. When he wakes up tomorrow, it will be a bright day again!

"I'm sorry Lixiang, because I drank too much in the afternoon and forgot our agreement..."

"Hiss..." When he said the promise, he suddenly felt a tightness on his thigh.

Judging from the feeling, it should be Nanako's little hand that pressed it. It didn't move around, but just left it quietly, as if to remind something.

Nakano Mayu took a deep breath instantly.

Don't play like this, my dear sister!

"Master Nakano, what's wrong with you?"

Lixiang's quiet eyes reflected little bits of light in the dark night, looking like a calm deep lake, deep and calm.

"No...it's okay. I feel a little thirsty. Can you help me get a bottle of oolong tea from the refrigerator?"

He forced a smile and said, trying not to reveal any flaws in front of the humanoid brain of the little maid.

Otherwise, it may be difficult to deal with the subsequent development...

"Okay, Master Nakano..."

The little maid was as always obedient and obedient in these little things in life. Although her expression was calm, she turned around and walked to the living room without any hesitation.

Nakano Mayu watched with a forced smile as Reika walked towards the living room. Then he immediately patted his sister who was huddled at his feet and reprimanded in a deep voice:

"Nanako, I said a few words to Reika and asked her to go back. This maid is too smart. If she is abnormal, it will be easy for others to see the clues... It is easy for others to misunderstand this kind of thing..."

"I'm not afraid of gossip, it's best if the whole world knows about it!"

Nanako's somewhat depressed reply sounded from inside the quilt.

Although he couldn't see his sister's expression, just by listening to the tone of his voice, he knew that his sister must have pouted and was a little unhappy.

"Don't be ridiculous!"

He didn't know how to answer the question, so he could only increase his tone and whisper fiercely.

"snort..."

The girl's body trembled in the quilt for a moment, and she snorted coldly but did not make any more sound, which was regarded as acquiescing to his words.

"call..."

Nakano Mayu just breathed out a sigh of relief, and before he had time to rest, the little maid who never did things sloppily had already returned with the coldest bottle of green tea.

"Master Nakano..."

The little maid stood beside the bed, unscrewed the cap of the oolong tea bottle and looked at him.

He quickly raised his hand and took it.

Because he knew that if he moved slower, the little maid might come over to feed him.

If it's normal, or if there isn't a little sister hidden under the quilt right now, y.

But now I really don’t have that leisure time.

He took the oolong tea and took two big sips, which completely relieved the dryness in his throat.

"Huh...thank you Lixiang..."

"It's a matter of duty..." the little maid finished speaking, took the oolong tea and put it on the bedside table, then turned to look at him: "Master Nakano, according to your instructions, the eldest lady and Miss Haneda have fallen asleep before I come over.

Yes, and I disguised myself with a quilt before leaving..."

Immediately, he tilted his head expressionlessly, as if asking him if there was anything else he could do.

The little maid stood beside the bed, her hands not folded in front of her belly as usual, but hanging naturally on both sides of her thighs.

Her jet-black hair, which was always tied into a neat bun, was now allowed to spread out in front of and behind her, almost reaching her waist.

The bright and shiny long hair reflected the bits of light coming from the window in the dark night, looking like mercury leaking out. Paired with the intellectual and elegant indifferent face of the little maid, she looked flawlessly beautiful.

This rarely seen 'skin' of a girl's pajamas made Nakano Mayu's throat, which had been relieved just now, seem to be dry again.

In addition, what does the little maid's expressionless words seem to imply?

What does it mean to pretend to be a quilt?

Does this mean that if you go back later, you won’t be discovered by others?

y?

like...

"ah..."

Suddenly, while deep in thought, he exclaimed in a somewhat high-pitched tone.

He immediately raised his hands and stretched, yawned, and continued the high-spirited exclamation just now: "Ahhhh..."

"Originally I wanted to trouble you with something, but I drank too much tonight and I still have a headache. You should go back to bed first... we will discuss the matter tomorrow..."

As he spoke, he pinched his thighs under the quilt. From the outside, it looked like he was moving his body.

"Well..." the little maid groaned, then bowed slightly and saluted: "Okay, then I won't disturb Young Master Nakano..."

"Knock knock knock..."

But before Reika Ehara could finish her words, there was another slight knock on the door of the bedroom that had been slightly closed when she came in.

"Nakano-kun, I know you haven't slept...can we talk?"

The voice of the girl from Baliu sounded from behind the door. Her usually clear and melodious voice seemed a bit deep and hoarse at this time.

Although the door was not closed, the girl did not push the door in out of politeness, but quietly waited for the answer from the door.

Asiba!

Nakano Maysuke and Ehara Reika looked at each other, instantly analyzed the situation in front of them, and made a tacit decision.

The relationship between the two cannot be discovered by others!

The soft eyes of the little maid standing by the bed suddenly became sharp. She scanned the layout of the room and then walked towards the large wardrobe placed on the wall without making any sound!

Nakano Mayu also replied loudly at the same time: "Sorry Hachiyanagi-chan, I'm not wearing pants, please wait for me a moment..."

He had no choice but to reply at this time.

Because the door was only slightly closed, if Hachiyanagi didn't reply, he would probably push the door open immediately to see if she was really asleep.

And if you refuse directly, such as "I'm sorry, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable now, can we talk about anything tomorrow?", given Hachiyanagi-chan's character, it is very likely that she will just push the door open and walk in.

And he couldn't get out of bed and talk to Hachiyanagi-chan outside.

Although Hachiyanagi-chan shouldn't think too much about such abnormal behavior, as soon as he leaves, Reika will definitely discover her sister under the quilt!

So the best choice is to temporarily stabilize the Yayanagi girl, wait for Reika to hide, and then solve them one by one in order!

Tonight, I must have a good sleep!

Even when Jesus comes, he can’t stop me!

"Creak..."

The wardrobe that had been used for many years made a sharp creaking sound when Reika opened the door on the left, which frightened Nakano Mayu, who was in a daze, and shook his shoulders.

But the little maid remained calm. After pushing the hanging clothes aside, she got in nimbly and closed the wardrobe from the inside. The whole process was completed in less than ten seconds!

"Huh..." After seeing the little maid hiding efficiently, Nakano Mayu exhaled a breath of turbidity out of habit.

Um?

Why does the scene of exhalation feel so familiar?

Then he secretly pinched his thighs and warned his restless sister again.

At the same time, he glanced at the cabinet where Lixiang was hiding, and made a calm gesture.

After he was sure that everything was safe, he maintained a somewhat nervous smile and said: "Hachi... Hachiyanagi-chan, come in..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the half-open door was gently pushed open by a tall and graceful girl.

After the girl entered the room, she did not close the door to seal the room. Perhaps out of reserve, she just opened the door lightly.

In Nakano Mayu's impression, the Hachiyanagi girl has always been elegant and generous, and she often makes some dirty jokes with him, and seems to have a good relationship with everyone.

But he knew that this was just a mask the girl put on in order to expand her business.

The inner character of the girl is closer to the neon traditional Yamato Nadeshiko type, not the kind of Yamato Nadeshiko whose outward behavior and temperament are so gentle.

Rather, it is inner persistence and sincerity towards emotions, which are closer to the character of traditional women.

This is something that Nakano Mayu has always admired.

"Nakano-kun...I want to talk to you..."

Riho Hachiyanagi just stood at the end of the bed, pursed her lips, and looked determined.

After the boy left just now, she lay on the bed for a while, trying to force herself to fall asleep.

But as soon as she closed her eyes, bits and pieces of her time with the boy would appear in her mind, and memories would linger in her mind.

Among these memories, joy and happiness account for the vast majority.

Occasionally I get a little depressed and angry.

Most of these negative emotions just passed away in a flash, and they would be coaxed away by the young man in front of them, or they would be adjusted out by themselves.

All that is left are sweet memories.

But all the memories are finally condensed into the back of the young man who left resolutely after hearing himself ask the words "Will you be responsible for me?"

The back figure gradually moved away in the darkness of the backlight, and finally disappeared before her eyes.

The subconscious tears falling from the corners of her eyes also made her completely confirm her feelings.

When she thought that she might drift away from the boy in the future and have no contact with him anymore, and that she might eventually meet him by chance on the street and exchange a good word with each other, her heart felt like a knife.

The gesture of a little daughter crying silently is not the inheritance of the Hachiyanagi family!

Now that his true intention is clear, Riho Hachiyanagi is willing to work hard for it!

Even if the chance is slim, try your best!

With this belief, she quietly climbed out of bed, came downstairs, and knocked on the boy's door.

...

Nakano Mayu felt his heart tighten when he saw the girl's perseverance mixed with a lonely expression.

Of course he knew the reason for the girl's expression at this moment.

He already knew how much of a blow his rejection would have to a young girl.

Although he felt very sad, long-term pain was better than short-term pain for things like feelings.

By being vague, I can take advantage and drag the girl with me.

But if you wait until later, when the girl's love is deeply rooted, and then realize that you can't give the girl the future she wants, and then refuse or even leave, that will be the greatest harm to her!

"..."

I just didn't expect Riho-chan's feelings for me...

It can make her determined to come down to find him even after being clearly rejected by him...

His heart was full of melancholy, he was distressed and helpless, and he didn't know where to start.

"Hachi...Riho-chan..."

After stopping his speech for a moment, he sat up straight on the bed and said in a deep voice, "I know what you want to say..."

"But now...I can't make a decision for the time being..."

"Although I also know that what I said is shameless, for me now, I really can't make a promise to you..."

"Feel sorry..."

Riho Hachiyanagi listened silently, without interrupting or making any humble gestures such as begging or begging.

"I just want to tell you that I like you..." Instead, he looked at the young man with soft and firm eyes, and said calmly: "You only need to answer me... do you like me?"

"..."

Seeing that the boy didn't answer, she bit her lower lip tightly and asked again sonorously: "You don't need to consider any other factors, just answer me from the bottom of your heart... Do you like me?"

"Well..."

After hearing the girl's words, Nakano Mayu lowered his head and pondered.

"Don't you even have the courage to tell the truth? Nakano-kun!"

After hearing the words, he was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the girl, and at the same time said slowly and hoarsely: "I like... I like it, but now I..."

"Since I like you and you like me, what is it that makes you so confused? Senior panda? Or the eldest lady of the consortium?"

Riho Hachiyanagi smiled when she heard this, her tone was not aggressive, it was just like the tone they usually used when teasing each other, clear and playful.

Seeing that Hachiyanagi-chan's expression had recovered a little, he felt a little more relaxed.

Although the two have not communicated clearly yet, it is at least a good start.

"Although my...my panda is not as big as my senior's, it is...not too small either. You...you have seen it before...I kid you not...the moderate ones are not...

Not bad..."

The girl suppressed her shyness and showed her most sincere affection.

"Although I don't have the assets of a eldest lady, I will work hard to make money. If you don't want to go out to work in the future, I will also work hard to make money to buy a big house, a condominium or an apartment, and hire a housekeeper..."

"You should also be aware of my earning power. It is more than enough to provide a comfortable life for the whole family. You can just do what you want to do. It doesn't matter even if you don't want to do anything. I will..."

The girl's big red and swollen eyes were half-closed, her chin was slightly tilted upward, and her expression was serious.

The words he spoke were direct and passionate, as if he was imagining what the future would be like with him...

When Nakano Mayu heard this, his heart softened, and he pinched his sister who was starting to cause trouble again. At the same time, he glanced at the left side of the closet where Reika was hiding.

Why are there so many pitiable girls around me...

The senior sister is very stupid. She believes everything he says. It seems that even if he sells her to Africa to mine, she will still be chewing hard steamed buns from the mining area while worrying about whether she has enough money to spend in Tokyo.

Feel.

Qiansha looks smart most of the time, but she always has a silly air when facing herself. She easily trusts her life in her hands, as if she has never worried about what she will do if she is bribed by her father or an enemy of the consortium.

What will happen...

There are also sisters, maids, Zhiqiu...

"well..."

He looked at the girl with a happy expression and a warm smile in front of him and sighed softly.

The hardest thing to bear is the kindness of a beautiful woman...

"Riho, I know what you're thinking..." He waited quietly for the girl to finish what she was thinking before speaking.

"..."

On the other hand, the girl who had been talking endlessly suddenly seemed to be stuck. She stood there in a daze, her hands clasped in front of her belly, looking a little nervous.

"I..." Nakano Mayu was about to speak.

"Wait, please wait a moment..." The girl from Yaliu suddenly interrupted: "Don't rush to give me the answer, I..."

"Knock knock knock..."

Just when the two people's eyes met and they were about to express their feelings, there was a knock on the door that was slightly closed by the girl.

"Nakano Nissan, are you asleep?"

"Akiho?!"

Both of them opened their eyes wide at the same time. After being stunned for a moment, the tenderness in the girl's eyes suddenly transformed into the look that Nakano Mayu was very familiar with, the way the girl looked at the mountains of kitchen waste piled up in the back alley of the izakaya.

"Mingsui came to see you at this time? So you entered my room just now to find Mingsui?!"

The girl leaned close to his ear and said through gritted teeth in a low voice, with anger in her eyes.

"Misunderstanding!" Nakano Mayu also lowered his voice, but wanted to explain in a very urgent tone.

"Nisan Nakano, are you here, eldest sister? Is Nisan asleep?"

The two looked at each other, and then they realized why Mingsui stayed up so late at night and came to his place.

He probably got up to pee and found that the eldest sister was not in the room or the bathroom. The eldest sister, who was a little worried about being drunk, found him after searching around.

Nakano Mayu quickly looked at the girl.

Riho Hachiyanagi probably realized the truth of the matter at this time, and the emotion just now was just a subconscious reaction.

In fact, you will know it after just a little thought.

The third sister is in Form One and has just turned fourteen.

No matter how crazy Nakano-kun is, he wouldn't attack a fourteen-year-old girl...right?

"What should I do?" Nakano Mayu asked, biting his ear and speaking urgently.

"I...I'll hide first. You said I'm not here. You must never let Mingsui know that I came to your room in the middle of the night. I will go back secretly after Mingsui leaves..."

The girl turned her head, raised her hand to rub her itchy ears, and looked around the room.

"What's wrong with Akiho-chan..."

"Eh? Has Nissan woke up? I got up and found that my eldest sister was missing, and I was a little worried..."

"Oh...Riho isn't here with me. Wait until I put on my pants..."

Nakano Mayu quickly responded in a confused tone, sounding as if he had been awakened.

At this time, he was also worried that Akiho-chan would push the door directly in, so he responded quickly.

Although Mingsui had always been very polite and respectful to him, when it came to her eldest sister's safety, the little girl would definitely not leave like this.

If you don't respond, you will definitely come in directly. Pretending to be asleep will definitely not work.

And it's not possible to go out and look for it with Akiho. The reason is the same as when Hachiyanagi-chan knocked on the door.

Although Reika won't come out after he leaves, Hachiyanagi-chan will definitely come out, and her sister on the bed won't be able to hide it...

Then all his hard work for a long time was in vain, and the sunk cost was too high!

The main thing is that it’s not closed!

Be sure to lock the door before going to bed next time!

Nakano Mayu thought secretly.

"I'm very sorry for disturbing Nissan late at night. I'll just go in and confirm..." Mingsui said politely.

Nakano Mayu took this opportunity and turned to look at Hachiyanagi-chan, only to find that she had made the same choice as the little maid and was walking towards the closet!

After all, the only places in my room where I can hide people are under the bed and the wardrobe.

Any girl probably doesn’t want to get under the bed in the middle of the night, so choosing a wardrobe is a very normal thing... What a ghost!

There is a maid hidden in the closet on the left now!

"Right to the right!" He hurriedly said in an attempt to save himself. After all, there was a door to the left and right wardrobes, and there was a wooden board in the middle. As long as the little maid didn't make any noise: "The left side is full of clothes!"

"Shh, please keep your voice down!" Riho Hachiyanagi saw that he was speaking in a hurry without caring about the volume, and quickly reminded him with his mouth.

At the same time, she opened the closet door on the right with a creaking sound, and with her motor skills that she had maintained through years of exercise, she nimbly got in.

"Nissan, what did you say? Mingsui didn't hear clearly..."

"Ah...it's okay, I'm just asking why Hachiyanagi-chan is still running around so late..."

While he was talking, he reached into the quilt to comfort his sister who had been curled up for a long time and started to become restless again after witnessing two 'big dramas'!

"Well..."

But the fingers that reached into the quilt were wrapped in a somewhat moist and warm feeling.

Stupid sister, do you want to cause trouble at this time?

Just as Nakano Mayu was about to open his mouth to let Mingsui in, a conversation suddenly came from outside the door.

"Mingsui? It's so late and you haven't slept yet. What's wrong?"

"Sister Nishimiya, good evening, because I just got up and found that my eldest sister was missing. I was worried that she was still drunk and running around, so..."

"Yachiyanagi-san is in Nakano-kun's room?"

"Nissan just said he wasn't here..."

"Huh... That shouldn't be there. You can go to the courtyard outside first and have a look. It might be in the courtyard..."

"Hmm...that's right, sister probably didn't run into Nissan's room..."

"Well, let's go and have a look..."

Then there was the sound of Akiho-chan's footsteps leaving, and Miss Nishimiya's indifferent tone of inquiry: "Nakano-kun, I'm here...can I go in directly?"
Chapter completed!
