She was already beautiful, but with makeup she looked even more mature.
Shirakawa Natsu had already sent her a message before coming, telling her that she and Miyuki would be coming today.
Her makeup was clearly done for Miyuki.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Xia-kun, Jingu-kun." Hojo Kanna bowed politely to the two of them, her gaze fixed on what was behind them.
"Miyuki isn't feeling well and is in the car. She should be coming over soon," Shirakawa Natsu quickly explained.
This unexpected incident could cause Kanna Hojo to misunderstand that Miyuki doesn't want to see her, which would be troublesome.
"I see." Kanna Hojo's face showed obvious disappointment, but she quickly put on a smile and said, "Please come in."
"Hehe, this is a souvenir." Nao Jingu smiled and waved the shopping bag in her hand.
This is something the two of them grabbed from home when they went out.
"Jingu-kun, you're too kind." Hojo Kanna smiled and invited the two into the house. "I'm sorry, the house hasn't been cleaned these past few days. Please make yourselves at home, I'll go make some tea."
After she finished speaking, she turned and went to the kitchen.
As soon as she left, Jingu Nao leaned over and whispered, "Natsu, Kanna seems to be in a bad mood."
“Hmm.” Shirakawa Natsu shrugged. “Love isn’t just about sweetness.”
Kanna Hojo brought over some snacks and placed them on the coffee table.
Jingu Nao chatted with her with a smile. This girl could talk to anyone, whether it was celebrity gossip or international affairs. As long as Hojo Kanna answered one question, she could talk non-stop.
Like a lark, she chirped incessantly; thankfully, her voice was clear and melodious.
Kanna Hojo was clearly distracted, her eyes glancing at the door every now and then.
She was waiting for Mi no Kumi.
But Mi-no-Kami seemed to have vanished, and never reappeared.
Shirakawa Natsu knew that Miyuki had most likely encountered some problems while untying the rope.
However, the most likely scenario is that his pants are wet, making it impossible for him to come.
Hojo Kanna's eyes gradually dimmed, her smile became increasingly forced, and her exquisite makeup suddenly looked somewhat comical.
"I'm so sorry for calling you suddenly last time," Kanna Hojo said softly to Natsu Shirakawa.
"Uh." Shirakawa Natsu was taken aback, realizing that she was referring to the time when she was fixing the water pipes at Kimura Momo's house, which was the last time the two of them met.
"Jingu-san, I'm sorry, I had to call your boyfriend," Hojo Kanna said to Jingu Nao.
"Hehe, we were together that day." Jingu Nao chuckled and hugged Shirakawa Natsu's hand. "He went to find Kanna after he finished, and I was a little jealous."
"Uh." Shirakawa Natsumi's expression was strange. That day when she was fixing the water pipes, she said that the teacher had been in a car accident and had run away. How did she end up sleeping with him?
However, he certainly wouldn't expose his girlfriend's lie, and could only give an awkward laugh at this point.
“But I forgive him.” Jingu Nao smiled and hugged Shirakawa Natsu’s arm, shaking it slightly. “After all, he’s just that kind of good-natured person. If his friends are in trouble, he’ll be there to help them in a heartbeat.”
"Oh, that's great." Kanna Hojo patted her chest, which instantly surged with a wave of emotion. "It wouldn't be good if you two argued because of me."
"No way~" Jingu Nao looked up at Shirakawa Natsu: "I believe Natsu would never lie to me, hehe."
"Hmph." Shirakawa Natsu chuckled awkwardly.
"I really envy you two." Kanna Hojo looked at the two of them hugging each other, her eyes flashing with longing. "I don't even know what I'm doing."
"It's because of Miyuki, isn't it?" Shirakawa Natsu shrugged. "That guy is just like that, he's just not good at expressing himself with words."
Kanna Hojo shook her head, her voice low: "The feeling of loving someone is often something that can't be expressed in words. I loved him so much, but she... I sometimes wonder if this love is really worth continuing?"
"..." Shirakawa Natsu was speechless for a moment. It seemed that Inagawa Hanahi had not given her the CD.
She was unaware that Miyuki wanted to break up with her.
Kanna Hojo saw Miyuki and Hanahi Inagawa kissing.
Knowing she was coming today, she still dressed up carefully; in truth, she already had the answer in her heart.
However, since Mikoshi was not coming, she was clearly wavering.
"Please don't say things like that again," Jingu Nao laughed, putting one arm around Shirakawa Natsu's arm. "Loving someone isn't about what they've done, but about who they are now, how they're loyal to love, how they're charming and debonair. That's what it means to fall in love with someone."
Jingu Nao glanced at Shirakawa Natsu as she spoke and smiled, "Of course, both people will change in a relationship, but it would be too selfish to make the other person a certain way of being a prerequisite for love."
Kanna Hojo paused for a moment, then nodded gently: "I'm sorry, I'll try to accept Miyuki."
"Hehe." Jingu Nao rubbed Shirakawa Natsu's hands together: "I also like the fact that Natsu is a fan of black stockings."
"Ahem." Shirakawa Natsu coughed lightly. It was too inappropriate to talk about such personal fantasies in public. But then he suddenly realized that Jingu Nao had started wearing ultra-thin black stockings every day, and suddenly felt that she was an angel.
The two chatted for another ten minutes or so, but Mikoto still didn't arrive.
"Then we'll be going now." Seeing that Hojo Kanna had regained her confidence and had achieved her goal, Shirakawa Natsu didn't want to stay any longer. She thought it better to go back and play with Jingu Nao's jade feet.
"Okay." Kanna Hojo quickly stood up. "I'll see you off."
Chapter 103 Absent-minded
"Absolutely not." Shirakawa Natsu quickly waved her hand, took Jingu Nao's arm, and said that Miyuki was still outside, and asking her to deliver it would only cause unnecessary trouble.
"It's alright, I haven't been out for a walk for many days either." Kanna Hojo picked up a coat from the side and put it on.
Shirakawa Natsu knew that she wanted to take the initiative to see Mino Shiki. This girl seemed introverted, but in fact, she would do everything in her power to win love.
"Okay, let's go together then." Shirakawa Natsu saw that she had put on her trench coat and knew that she couldn't stop her, so she took Jingu Nao's hand and went out together.
The three of them went out together. Shirakawa Natsu looked around but didn't see Miyuki or her jeep.
"Could this guy have left it in the car and driven back first?" Shirakawa Natsu began to suspect. Even if Miyuki hadn't gone, he was already at his limit at the end, just one step away from giving up.
It's not impossible for her to drive herself to a secluded spot to generate electricity.
"I plan to go to school next week." Kanna Hojo placed her hands on her stomach and walked with a very ladylike gait.
"Hehe, that's great, Kanna's body is alright now, right?" Jingu Nao waved her hands back and forth, a stark contrast to Hojo Kanna.
"Yeah, it's just a common cold." Kanna Hojo smiled as she walked to the side. "Actually, I was fine by the third day, but Mom saw that I wasn't feeling well, so she kept me at home for a few more days."
"Oh dear, dating Miyuki will definitely give you a taste of the bitterness of love." Jingu Nao grinned mischievously, "But in the end, it will surely be sweet."
"Thank you." After saying that, Kanna Hojo looked up and then froze.
Shirakawa Natsu was also stunned. He saw a Jeep parked in the aisle ahead, and a black sedan parked next to it.
Inagawa Hanahi stood opposite Minoki, and the two stared at each other.
"What kind of chaotic scene is this?" Shirakawa Natsu's expression was strange, and she immediately turned to look at Hojo Kanna.
Her smile froze, and sure enough, it turned gloomy in an instant.
Shirakawa Natsumi felt a sudden panic. He had personally handed the CD to Inagawa Hanahi. If he wasn't mistaken, this was the first time the two had met since then, and it was at Hojo Kanna's doorstep.
The whole thing started to get weird.
While everyone was at a loss, Inagawa Hanahi suddenly raised her hand and slapped Mino Shiki across the face.
The slap was extremely heavy, and a handprint instantly appeared on Miyuki's face.
Miyuki did not resist. After staggering for a moment, she immediately straightened up and quietly looked at Inagawa Hanahi.
"Hey, you!" Shirakawa Natsu immediately couldn't stand it anymore. Even if she was a mafia boss's daughter, he couldn't tolerate her hitting his brother.
At worst, I'll just hide next to the perverted fox with Jingu Nao. Does the perverted fox think I'll just stand by and let her get bullied?
A figure beside him was even faster; Kanna Hojo ran a few steps to stand in front of Mikoto, blocking his way.
Like an enraged lion, she stared intently at Inagawa Kahi: "What right did you have to hit her?"
Shirakawa Natsu secretly gasped. Usually, Hojo Kanna would blush when talking to people, and the last time she saw Inagawa Hanahi, she kept her head down the whole time.
This time, even though her lover was being attacked, she bravely stood in front of her and used her body to block Inagawa Hanahi.
"Hmph." Inagawa Hanahi snorted coldly, her gaze sweeping over the two of them: "I will never appear in front of you again, and never let me see you again."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and got into the black sedan.
Soon, with the roar of an engine, the car disappeared at the intersection.
"Kami, does it hurt? Let me put some medicine on it for you." Kanna Hojo stopped Mikoto's hand, then seemed to remember that the two of them were still arguing, so she lowered her head, but still wouldn't let go of his hand.
Shirakawa Natsu glanced at Miyuki and noticed that there was no wetness between her legs and no bulge on her neck.
It was obvious that she had disposed of the ropes while the two were inside.
Although I don't know why she's here with Inagawa Hanahi, they don't seem to be having a good time.
Furthermore, she has adopted a stance of never speaking to Inagawa Hanahi again.
Shirakawa Natsu suspects it's related to that CD, but these are just suspicions; we'll have to wait for Miyuki to ask her privately for details.
However, after this little incident, Kanna Hojo became noticeably more proactive towards Mikoto.
After all, with their rival gone, the thorn that had been lodged in their hearts was removed.
"Then I'll head back first." Shirakawa Natsumi wisely took Jingu Nao's hand, leaving the two of them some space: "Kanna's family still has some sweets, they taste pretty good."
Miyuki glanced at Hojo Kanna, who was looking down with her head down and her cheeks flushed, then took out her car keys and handed them to Shirakawa Natsu: "I'll take a taxi home myself later."
"Okay." Shirakawa Natsu took the keys and got into the car with Jingu Nao.
Mikoto's height is only one centimeter different from his. He sat in the driver's seat, which was exactly where Mikoto sat. He didn't even need to adjust the seat, which was very convenient.
"Hehe, Nao's going to eat something delicious." Jingu Nao started gesturing excitedly after getting into the passenger seat.
"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Shirakawa Natsu smiled, shifted her position, and then suddenly felt a damp, cool sensation coming from under the seat.
"?" Shirakawa Natsu's face showed a big question mark, but she didn't dare to lower her head.
"Natsu, are you feeling unwell?" Jingu Nao noticed his unusual behavior and asked curiously, "Nao can drive too."
After saying that, he made a gear shifting motion with his right hand.
Shirakawa Natsu felt that the way her small hands were making that gesture was very abnormal, but now was clearly not the time to think about such things.
I felt the coolness under my buttocks; it was a bit slippery, not ordinary water.
Forcing a smile, she said to Jingu Nao, "I'd rather eat Nao, why don't we go home?"
"Hehe, Natsu is a pervert~" Jingu Nao laughed and rested her head on his shoulder: "Okay, but Nao has to eat Natsu first."
"Mmm." Shirakawa Natsu was already cursing Miyuki to the heavens in her heart. She had to talk to her that night. This cold and beautiful older sister was becoming more and more perverted. Her brother was gradually opening the door to something strange, and she had to stop her in time.
Kanna Hojo took Minozaki home, had her sit on her bed, and then put an ice pack on Minozaki's face: "Don't put any medicine on your face, it might be an allergic reaction. The swelling will go down after a while."
"Thank you," Miyuki said softly.
"Hmm." Kanna Hojo lowered her head, and the room fell silent again.
“Just now…” Mi no Shi suddenly spoke.
“No need,” Kanna Hojo interrupted, looking at Mikoto. “I believe you.”
Miyuki paused for a moment, then nodded.
Kanna Hojo leaned on her shoulder: "Do you love me?"
“Yes.” Miyuki nodded firmly without any hesitation.
Kanna Hojo smiled, as if a weight had finally been lifted from her heart, and said softly, "That's great."
She looked up at Miyuki, her heart starting to race.
Their lips gradually met in a kiss.
After a long while, their lips parted, leaving a glistening thread.
"Kishi, can you stay here with me tonight?" Kanna Hojo asked, blushing.
Miyuki frowned and said, "Auntie will come back, right?"
"N-nothing...it's okay." Kanna Hojo blushed. "She doesn't know, and it's normal for two girls to sleep together."
After she finished speaking, she buried her head in Miyuki's arms, blushing with embarrassment: "I... I've been studying hard these past few days, and I even asked Mom to buy abalone for me to practice..."
“Mm.” Miyuki nodded.
The two fell onto the bed, their clothes scattered all over the floor.
