When Chen Xiaofeng and Minato got home, it was already past eight o'clock.
Because she had to prepare for the school festival, she didn’t go home until after school time. Qiong was in the next class, and there didn’t seem to be anything she needed to help with. She came home early and was currently working in the kitchen.
Arturia is cooking dinner.
"You're back." Yu said hello after seeing Chen Xiaofeng and Minato sitting on the sofa in the living room.
By the way, although Yu is the envoy of the underworld and can be regarded as a minor god, gods are not omnipotent. Things made by Yu are called "dark cuisine" in the underworld - such things are not so much
It's food, rather than a weapon. This is why Yuu is watching TV leisurely in the living room instead of helping in the kitchen.
Minato once asked Yu to help because he didn't understand. However, the result was predictable - the whole family asked for leave the next day.
"I'm really sorry, because my brother and I made you have dinner so late." Minato said apologetically.
"It's nothing, Xiaoqiong just came back." You said.
"Really?" Minato smiled, and then shouted towards the kitchen, "Lily, Xiaoqiong, do you need my help?"
"No, dinner will be served soon."
"That's it, let me help with the tableware." Minato walked into the kitchen without hesitation.
Only Chen Xiaofeng and You were left in the living room.
Speaking of which, Chen Xiaofeng hadn't been alone with You for a long time. The awkward atmosphere made Chen Xiaofeng not know what to say.
Fortunately, I spoke first.
"Chen Xiaofeng, what happened at school today?" You asked, picking up the black tea on the coffee table.
To talk about what happened... Chen Xiaofeng recalled: First, he was fooled by Yang Ping into agreeing to wear a maid outfit on the school festival, then he was "molested" by a group of girls, and finally Luo Jia said something strange to the north of the teaching building.
If so... All in all, Chen Xiaofeng's school life is quite fulfilling.
"Not bad, everyone is very friendly and caring about me, and Minato is in the same class as me. Even though Minato is my sister, most of the time I have to rely on her to take care of my brother... Of course, there is no such thing
Things would be even better..."
Chen Xiaofeng whispered the last half of the sentence.
"I didn't ask how you were, but who you had contact with today."
"I've met a lot of people, including Yang Ping, Xiao Qiong, and a lot of girls... Oh, by the way, there's also Luo Jia." Chen Xiaofeng answered honestly.
Chen Xiaofeng himself couldn't explain it. He was always like a "good boy" in front of You. He would answer honestly whatever You asked.
"I highly recommend girls..." Yu's eyes turned strange.
"Don't get me wrong! Yes, I came here to confirm some information due to the request of the school festival!"
You looked at Chen Xiaofeng in disbelief. Chen Xiaofeng's evasive eyes betrayed his guilty conscience.
However, Yu did not continue to make a fuss about this.
"In other words, you have contacted someone?"
"Ah, well, that's it. What's wrong, Yu, asking these questions all of a sudden?" Chen Xiaofeng, who breathed a sigh of relief, asked back.
"It's nothing, I just feel a familiar smell on you today." You drank black tea.
"Taste?" Chen Xiaofeng didn't know why.
"Oh, I remembered." After thinking for a while, Chen Xiaofeng patted his head and said, "That Luo Jia is Ling Han's sister. Do you have any impression?"
"Yes, he is an ordinary person."
"Hey, you are wrong, Yu. That guy is the envoy of the underworld just like you."
"Angel of God?"
Yu's eyes widened in disbelief, and just when he was about to ask more questions, Minato's voice came from the restaurant.
"Brother, Yu, it's time to eat!"
"Yeah, it's coming!" Chen Xiaofeng couldn't wait to run to the dining table, "Wow! Fried pork chops, curry and vegetable salad, super rich!"
However, compared to Chen Xiaofeng who was in a good mood, You's expression was much more solemn.
"Eh? What's wrong? Yu-chan?" Artoria noticed Yu's strange behavior and asked with concern.
"Ah, it's nothing." Yu shrugged and stood up from the sofa.
After a sumptuous dinner, Chen Xiaofeng walked into the bathroom after Minato said, "Brother, let's take a bath first."
Lying in the large bathtub, Chen Xiaofeng's body finally relaxed.
"This kind of high school life... is really too tiring!"
Chen Xiaofeng buried his mouth in the water and blew bubbles.
However, having said that, as a boy, he actually handed over the task of clearing the table to a girl, while he took a leisurely bath... Thinking of this problem, Chen Xiaofeng felt a sense of failure in his heart.
"Sure enough, I should have been tougher and took over the task of clearing the table."
Chen Xiaofeng stood up and walked out of the bathtub.
"It's better to end it quickly."
Chen Xiaofeng murmured in a low voice and stretched out his hand to the soap.
Knock knock knock——
The knock on the door was accompanied by Yu's question.
"Can I come in? Chen Xiaofeng."
Chen Xiaofeng was at a loss when he suddenly heard Yu's voice. However, before Chen Xiaofeng could answer, the bathroom door was opened.
He hurriedly rolled up a towel, and then he saw Yu's figure.
Although through the thick mist, Chen Xiaofeng could still vaguely see Yu's snow-white skin, her slender and luxurious limbs, and her thighs sticking out from between the gaps in the bath towel.
Yu rolled up the area below her chest with a bath towel. After closing the bathroom door, she walked towards Chen Xiaofeng, who had his eyes wide open.
"Chen Xiaofeng, in return for letting me live here, I will wipe your back today."
"No, no, no, no need!"
Chen Xiaofeng refused in a panic, showing himself naked in front of the girl, but it was a very embarrassing thing, even if the other party was a woman, it would still be embarrassing - no, it's more embarrassing than strange.
"Don't worry, Chen Xiaofeng, Minato, Qiong, and Lily are cleaning up the dining table and kitchen, so no one will notice." You said calmly.
"That's not the problem, okay!" Chen Xiaofeng reincarnated and jumped into the bathtub, hiding his body under the water.
"It's just a back rub. Chen Xiaofeng, are you too shy?"
Chen Xiaofeng now seriously doubts You's nerve. A woman wearing only a bath towel gives a man wearing only a bath towel - this kind of scene seems to only happen in those informal bathing centers, right?
"This is not a matter of shyness! Yu, I think you should know the difference between boys and girls! Even if you don't care, I will still care!"
"Sure enough...Chen Xiaofeng...you...do you hate me?" Yu suddenly stared at Chen Xiaofeng with tears in his eyes.
