"Hmm? Is there something on my face? Did I not wipe it clean just now?!"
Watching Hoshino Sora stare at her, Kitagawa Marin tilted her head slightly, her hands behind her back as she stood tall, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion. Then, as if realizing something, she immediately covered her face with her hands, her eyes filled with shyness.
"Don't worry, it's wiped very clean. I just think you're strangely cute, so I couldn't help but look a few more times."
"I feel like you've gotten better at sweet talk than before, manager. The old you would never have complimented me as cute like this."
"Really? I've always been this straightforward, okay?"
"Liar."
Afterward, Hoshino Sora sent Kitagawa Marin home.
"Do you want to come in and sit for a while?"
Standing at the door, Kitagawa reluctantly watched Hoshino Sora prepare to leave, her cheeks slightly flushed, her hands grasping his, her eyes filled with a desire for him to stay.
"Next time. I need to go home early today. My sisters have already prepared dinner and are just waiting for me."
Looking at Kitagawa, whose face was slightly flushed and whose eyes held a hint of charm, Hoshino Sora pulled his hand away and took a step back.
If he went in now, another big battle would definitely break out. He had already planned out the whole process. Enter the apartment, sit on the sofa and chat for a while, when tired of chatting, he would go cook, Kitagawa would go shower, he would hear the sound of water and couldn't resist wanting to shower together, then knock on the door and ask if he could enter the bathroom...
And then, everything would naturally fall into place.
Although that would also be quite nice, he now wanted to go home and accompany Yaxiang Lixiang even more. Those two were looking forward to his return every day and had endured loneliness for half a month. Now was the time they needed his nourishment the most.
The video call from two days ago flashed in his mind, and Hoshino Sora's heart was ablaze. And because Kitagawa was his first experience, he wasn't very satisfied, even though he pretended to be very content.
After all, he couldn't let Kitagawa feel that he couldn't satisfy him; that would make her lose confidence.
"Then when can we go on another date?"
"In a while. I'm busy for the next week and even the next half month. If I can find time, I'll come find you immediately. Anyway, I already know where your house is."
Hoshino Sora looked deeply at the house number and said with a smile to Kitagawa, who had already entered the house halfway.
"Okay, this is my spare key. If you're coming, remember to tell me in advance. Of course, if you want to give me a surprise, I don't mind."
"Oh, and here, take this."
As she spoke, Kitagawa's face visibly flushed. Biting her lower lip slightly, she reached into her skirt. After some maneuvering, she handed Hoshino Sora a soft, cottony object.
"I will make good use of it!"
"Quickly put it away, it won't be good if someone sees it. I still want to live in this building."
Looking at Hoshino Sora, who was unfolding the soft, cottony object and admiring it carefully in front of her, Kitagawa, her face red, grabbed his hand and squeezed it tightly together. This was not something to display in the corridor!
"Alright, I'm going back now. Give me a kiss before we part."
Looking at the girl leaning against the door, tightly clutching his hand, her eyes filled with shyness, Hoshino Sora could no longer resist. He pressed forward, leaning his body against her, making her lean against the doorframe, and kissed her in a wall-slamming fashion.
Very moist.
"Hmm, wasn't that enough kissing just now?"
Shyly responding to Hoshino Sora's passionate kiss, Kitagawa pushed him away only when he started to get handsy. This wouldn't do; she couldn't go through another big battle.
Thinking of Hoshino Sora's valiant performance not long ago, Kitagawa felt her thighs tremble a little. That guy was much bigger than the pixelated ones she saw in games.
And his stamina was particularly strong. At first, it was a faint pain, which slowly turned into comfort. She still clearly remembered her pathetic appearance, trying to hold back her sounds.
Although she knew no one would come up to that residential building, it was still outdoors. There would still be feelings of nervousness, fear, timidity, and worry about being discovered.
This also caused her body to react intensely, giving her a unique stimulation. A few minutes after it was over, she couldn't even stand straight, and it took a long time to recover before she could move normally.
Starting with such a high difficulty, it was really hard on her.
"How could one kiss be enough? If I weren't short on time, I'd even want to hold you and kiss you all night. Well, I'm really leaving now. I'll bring you something delicious next time."
"All night might be a bit too much, bye-bye…"
Hoshino Sora stroked Hayama's little head, waved goodbye to her, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. Hayama, on the other hand, quietly muttered a complaint, then watched his retreating figure, gently touching her lips with her fingers, feeling the warmth, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Yay! Manager, my manager, we're really dating! It feels a little unreal, that confession earlier was so great! Like? Like! I super like the manager!"
Closing the door, Kitagawa Marin could no longer control her emotions, happily jumping and bouncing around, her mouth stretched almost to her ears, and her hands excitedly swinging up and down.
"Manager! No, I should call him Hoshino-kun now, or Sora? Hoshino-kun is more conventional, Sora is more intimate. I'll call him Hoshino-kun first, and then suddenly call him by his first name later, he should be even happier.
Or should I just keep calling him manager? After all, that's our exclusive pet name. Ah, I can't wait for our next meeting!"
She executed a graceful spin and jump in the living room, then landed steadily on the sofa, burying her face in a pillow, using the coolness of the pillow to force herself to calm down. Of course, the main reason was that her movements were too big, causing her some pain, as she had just done that, and she hadn't recovered very well.
"Shower!"
Crossing her thighs, rubbing them slightly, Kitagawa gritted her teeth and gasped, her mind filled with the madness in the corridor. But there was still some… that couldn't be cleaned completely. Even though it wasn't her period, to be safe, she should still go to the pharmacy tomorrow.
Actually, at first, Hoshino Sora was unwilling to stay inside, but she felt that the first time had to be inside, so she clamped her legs to prevent him from leaving, and the result was predictable.
Closing the curtains, she walked into the bathroom while taking off her clothes. Looking at herself in the mirror, covered in marks, Kitagawa's face radiated happiness.
In her opinion, these were marks of love.
They were an expression of happiness!

"Welcome back!" * 2
Ya Xiang: "Do you want to eat first?"
Rika: "Or shower first?"
"Or, do you want to eat us first?" * 2
On the other side, Hoshino Sora returned home and looked at his two sisters, dressed in naked aprons, kneeling at the entrance, speaking sweet words one after another, with a subtle expression.
He seemed to have seen this scene somewhere before.
And this time, Hoshino Sora could finally speak his truest thoughts. He closed the door with a loud bang, then began to take off his shoes and clothes.
"I want to shower while eating my sisters, and then eat in the bathroom."
"Do you want to do all three at once?"
Looking at each other, Yaxiang Lixiang's eyes held a hint of surprise. They really hadn't expected that answer.
"Sora is truly a greedy child~"
Biting her finger, Ya Xiang said, standing up and taking the clothes he had changed out of. Rika followed closely behind.
"However."
"Since you're home for a rare visit, just spoil us to your heart's content!"
They rushed forward and hugged Hoshino Sora's body, their heads slightly raised to meet his gaze. As their eyes met, their blissful night life began.
——————
When he woke up again, it was already morning. Sunlight spilled onto Yaxiang Lixiang. The two sisters were tightly embracing each other, thinking they were holding Hoshino Sora.
"Sora? Where is he, did he leave…?"
It wasn't until Ya Xiang woke up and opened her eyes that she realized she was holding Rika. She immediately let go with a hint of disdain, then her gaze searched the room.
"Where's Sora?"
Because Ya Xiang's movements were too loud, Rika slowly opened her eyes as well. She first yawned lazily, then also began searching the room, her tone filled with confusion.
"He must have gone back to school. He didn't even say goodbye to me again. This child is really not cute!"
Her cheeks puffed out slightly. Thinking that Hoshino Sora had snuck away again, Ya Xiang stamped her feet twice in annoyance. She had planned to say goodbye to him in the morning, but she didn't expect him to leave without a word again, just like last time.
"Sniff, sniff. There's a delicious smell outside…"
Compared to Ya Xiang's silent annoyance, Rika twitched her nose twice, then jumped out of bed and opened the room door. Outside, a rich tide of fragrance, the moment the door opened, like a wolf seeing a sheep, desperately surged into the room.
"Sora, what delicious food are you making? I've never seen it before."
Looking at Hoshino Sora still busy in the kitchen, Rika stood behind him with her hands behind her back, then turned sideways, her gaze curiously fixed on the freshly steamed rice noodle rolls in the pot.
"Rika-nee, you're awake. This is Chee Cheong Fun, Cantonese cuisine. I added shrimp to it. I guarantee you'll love it so much you'll never want to leave! But before that, you should go back to your room and put on some clothes.
Although it's summer now, you can still catch a cold if you're not careful, and I can't control myself when you're like this."
Hoshino Sora pinched Rika's nose and said gently, chatting while using a spatula to scoop up the translucent rice noodle sheets from the iron pan, then rolling them into long strips and cutting them in the middle.
After drizzling with the secret sauce, the aroma instantly doubled, and the steaming fresh shrimp rice noodle rolls were complete. Ya Xiang also changed her clothes at this time, holding Rika's clothes, and ran out of the room.
"Put on your clothes before you come out! This is… it smells so good!"
Her cheeks were slightly puffed out, clearly displeased with Rika's sneaking out.
As she spoke, she twitched her nose, then noticed the steaming Chee Cheong Fun on the nearby table, emitting an enticing aroma. Her stomach immediately rumbled.
"This is Chee Cheong Fun. Go wash up. It'll be cool enough to eat by the time you're done."
Hoshino Sora's voice was gentle. Looking at Rika, who had just put on her clothes under Ya Xiang's urging, he reached out and urged the two to go to the bathroom to wash up. After thinking for a few seconds, he followed them in.
"Ah, well, Rika-nee, I'm still here."
After the two sisters finished washing up, Rika suddenly walked towards the toilet nearby. Ten seconds later, Hoshino Sora, who was still washing up, heard the sound of water, which made him unable to help but complain.
"Can't hold back, can you? And you've seen everything there is to see, Sora. You can have me anytime you want."
"It's too early in the morning for that. I need to get ready and head back to school. Things will get busy next week, so I need to prepare the menu for the lodging training in advance."
Hearing the sound of a skirt being lifted from behind him, Hoshino Sora didn't turn around but continued brushing his teeth, his mind pondering the lodging training.
As the first major event after entering Far Moon, Hoshino Sora naturally wanted to do well and become the most dazzling person during the lodging training. However, to do well, he needed to prepare in advance.
Although he didn't think he would fail this assessment, blind arrogance would only destroy a person. Hoshino Sora thought this, then spit out the water in his mouth and left the bathroom.
A minute later, Rika also came out and, seeing Ya Xiang and Hoshino Sora waiting for her at the dining table, immediately quickened her pace and walked over.
"Let's eat!"
With everyone present, Hoshino Sora picked up his chopsticks, put his hands together, and then used his chopsticks to break open the rice rolls in front of him, dipping them in the secret sauce and eating with great relish.
"So delicious! Is this called rice rolls? The shrimp are springy and refreshing, the rice rolls are tender, smooth, and fragrant, and the sauce is savory. How can breakfast be this delicious?"
As the rice rolls entered her mouth, a rich, fresh flavor filled Ya Xiang's oral cavity. This was a taste she had never experienced before, which was normal, as rice rolls were rarely sold on the streets of Neon.
At least they had never seen them.
"Sora, ah~ Let me feed you."
Picking up a piece of rice roll with a whole large shrimp on it, Ya Xiang intimately made a feeding gesture. Feeding her younger brother was one of her joys as an older sister!
"How sly! I want to feed him too!"
With one word after another, Hoshino Sora's mouth was instantly filled with the love of his two older sisters. Only when he raised his hand to refuse, indicating he couldn't stuff any more in, did the two of them contentedly put down their chopsticks.
"Eating a bowl of rice rolls early in the morning makes my whole body feel warm. It's like seeing a group of very lively fresh shrimp swimming and playing in rice milk. What a peculiar feeling!"
"Another serving!"
"Me too!"
"Please wait a moment, I also made pork, beef, and egg ones. You can have whatever you want!"
Opening the steamer next to him, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but reveal a proud smile, especially seeing the two sisters' adoring expressions, which made his pride surge even more.
"By the way, haven't mom and dad come back yet?"
Hoshino Sora voiced his confusion. They had been playing wildly precisely because their parents weren't home, moving from the bathroom to the kitchen, then from the kitchen to the living room, and finally to the room.
"They came back and stayed for a few days last week, then said they were going to Huaxia. Dad really loves Mom. Mom just mentioned wanting to try Huaxia's cuisine, and the next day Dad took her there."
"Mom looked so happy!"
Rika added.
"Is that so? That guy's quite something. Huaxia, huh? I'll take you guys there if I get the chance. To be honest, it's quite good there. All sorts of delicious foods emerge endlessly. Compared to that, Neon falls far short."
Thinking of the long-standing Huaxia cuisine, any one culinary style could easily outperform Neon. Even though he was born in Neon in this life, Hoshino Sora's heart remained in Huaxia.
He inexplicably felt a sense of being in Cao's camp but his heart being with Han.
"Okay."
"Then I'll really look forward to it."
"Exactly! International travel? Come to think of it, we've never left Tokyo before."
Looking up at the ceiling, Ya Xiang Rika's eyes were filled with anticipation. International travel, just thinking about it made one excited. Not only could they experience the customs of different regions, but they could also taste delicacies from all over the world!
"Anyway, I'll take you to travel the world then!"
Hoshino Sora had a vision: after becoming a world-class chef, he would travel to various parts of the world to learn from masters, eating and learning cooking techniques from chefs everywhere.
At the same time, he would also bring his wives, forming a harem. During the day, they would enjoy gourmet food, and at night, they would enjoy the girls. That life would be boundless joy, reaching the pinnacle of his ideal life!
"Mhm."
Ya Xiang Rika nodded lightly after hearing this, clearly buying into the grand promise Hoshino Sora painted for them. Their faces showed expressions of anticipation, and their minds began to fantasize about a wonderful world tour with their younger brother.
After breakfast, Ya Xiang began to clean up, while Hoshino Sora returned to his room, taking out his game console for the first time in a while to play small two-player games with Rika to pass the time.
Later, Ya Xiang joined in, and the three of them played until the afternoon before Hoshino Sora reluctantly left.
Occasional relaxation is necessary.
Sitting on the bus heading to Far Moon, Hoshino Sora thought this, stretching lazily, his gaze drifting out the window. At this moment, the bus slowly came to a stop.
Then, he saw a familiar figure at the bus door.
"Oh, it's Xiao Hui. Long time no see."
With her two braids swaying, wearing a casual jacket, and carrying a large bag, Hoshino Sora, sitting in his seat, enthusiastically waved and greeted her.
Since that day he escorted Tadokoro Megumi back to the dormitory, they hadn't seen each other for a long time. It seemed Tadokoro Megumi had performed well after that assessment and hadn't been eliminated yet.
"Ah, Hoshino-kun, what a coincidence to meet you here. Thank you for what happened last time. Without you, I might have been expelled."
Looking at Hoshino Sora, who was sitting at the back of the bus, with a surprised expression, Tadokoro Megumi scurried forward and sat beside him. Because he had helped her fly through the last time, she could be said to greatly admire Hoshino Sora.
"It is quite a coincidence. Don't worry about that. Anyway, I also needed an A rating. By the way, Xiao Hui, what are you out doing?"
"Buying daily necessities and ingredients. Look at this, wagyu beef at 20% off from the supermarket! It's really super affordable! It's just that so many people were trying to get it. Everyone was waiting for this wagyu to be marked 20% off."
Thinking of the intense showdown with the aunties at the supermarket not long ago, Tadokoro Megumi patted her chest with lingering fear, but in the end, she still won.
"Is that so? You must have had a tough time."
"Hoshino-kun? What are you out doing?"
"I went home for a bit, then tried a very good sushi restaurant and learned some new things."
Hoshino Sora answered truthfully, then chatted casually with Tadokoro Megumi.
Without the pressure of expulsion, Tadokoro Megumi had returned to her normal state. Facing Hoshino Sora's humorous conversation, a happy smile occasionally flashed across her face, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
