"I'm feeling better, cough cough."

Shuangshi seemed to be still in a daze. Only after a while did she realize how impulsive her actions had been. It was the first time she had done something like this, and it did indeed give her a strong urge to vomit. She hadn't expected it to end like this. The thick, sticky feeling made her unable to hold back and she vomited directly into the trash can next to the bed, throwing up a large amount of indescribable stuff into the trash can.

After rinsing her mouth several times, she slowly drank the rest of the warm water before leaning against Amamiya's chest. At that moment, she was as delicate as Lin Daiyu, making people feel sorry for her.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be like that."

"I just wanted to try it once... The book said it would feel good. And... I wanted you to be able to rely on me a little more."

Sōse nestled affectionately in Amamiya's arms, never expecting things to turn out that way.

Although I don't know what book Souse is reading, Amamiya can guarantee that it's definitely not serious. Serious books always teach details.

Amamiya can assure you that Sōse has never practiced at all. Every time Amamiya touches Sōse's little teeth, he feels a little pain, but it is this unfamiliarity that stimulates Amamiya even more.

Lin Meng's feelings for Shuang Shi made him cherish her even more, as she was truly willing to do such a thing.

"So, what do you think, Lian? Tell me the truth."

Sōse touched Amamiya's face with both hands, as if to prove her point. She wanted to hear Amamiya's true thoughts, not just to deceive her.

"Quite unfamiliar."

Amamiya gave a practical answer, and Sōse's eyes dimmed slightly upon hearing it. Although she wanted to hear the truth, she was still somewhat unhappy after hearing it.

"But I like it."

However, Amamiya didn't finish her sentence. Her words, which started with a negative tone and then became more uplifting, brightened Sōse's dimmed eyes again. She turned to look at Amamiya and asked, "Really?"

"Really, I can feel your feelings. But please don't do this again next time."

Amamiya rubbed Sase's face with the back of her hand. Now that Sase was by her side, it was becoming increasingly easy to guess his emotions. This appearance of letting down all his guard was indeed somewhat unexpected for Amamiya, but it was also reasonable.

It was because she liked him, because she cared about him, that she was willing to give everything.

She would give everything for the people she loves, and feel genuinely happy when she receives positive feedback. Just like with Crychic, she loves it so much and is willing to give everything for it. She needs to care for others to feel secure; she is also a girl who craves love. She both yearns for love and hopes to give it.

She loves the other person, so she wants to help and satisfy them as much as possible. That's why when she notices that Amamiya's body is a little excited, she chooses to soothe it to calm Amamiya down. Doing so makes her happy and joyful. This is also why Amamiya feels that she is humble. Her love is about giving.

She herself didn't realize that, without her noticing, Amamiya had quietly usurped Crychic's place in her heart. She truly no longer held such a strong attachment to Crychic, after all...

Having received the same warmth, one will no longer be so attached to the past. People only cherish what they have lost, and when enveloped in happiness, one only wants to enjoy this wonderful time.

"Lian, could you grant me a small wish?"

"You said."

"It's just... I read in a book that..."

While she yearns to give, she doesn't give blindly; she also wants to receive some feedback from the other person. She knows that Amamiya is also a giving personality, and when facing Amamiya, she has to consider and even struggle with how to balance this relationship.

She can't bear to give too much and make the other person uncomfortable, nor can she accept that the other person is always taking care of her without satisfying her own sense of security. She lacks a sense of security too much; she can only feel secure by becoming someone others need.

She was always lonely, but she thought to herself, "If someone needs me, maybe my loneliness will disappear." So she started cooking, washing clothes, taking care of her mother, and at the invitation of her classmates, she joined the wind band club and learned to play the double bass, which she didn't know how to play.

But these actions can only temporarily alleviate loneliness. She still lacks love, she has no sense of belonging, and no anchor that can make her feel at ease. Once she has a sense of belonging, even if she is still alone, her heart is not empty, just like the month when she first formed Crychic.

Crychic disbanded, and she returned to a state of loneliness. She had no choice but to disguise herself again, to satisfy others, and to become someone else's 'mother'. So, at a young age, she had a faint sense of widowhood because the Crychic she loved was dead, and she had been keeping vigil for him.

Mygo couldn't reach the same level as Crychic in her heart. She couldn't let go of her ex. In her eyes, Mygo was more like her own child, someone who needed her care and love. Back then, Crychic had Xiangzi, so she didn't need to put in too much effort; she mostly enjoyed herself. But Mygo's group of troubled children needed her care and understanding. She had a child, but she was still a widow.

Until... that night, Amamiya appeared in her life, and Amamiya gave her a feeling—that she could relieve her loneliness without having to pay a price.

When Amamiya was around, the feeling of loneliness would dissipate because she had truly opened her heart to him. She had let down all her defenses and allowed Amamiya into her most private sphere. In turn, Amamiya eased all her doubts in that sphere. During those days, she was cared for by Amamiya like a child. This was a feeling she had never experienced before, and it was different from any other experience.

She liked Amamiya; she could sense that Amamiya was different from everyone else.

Everyone else was just a 'child' in her heart, but Amamiya... was the real 'husband'.

She gains a sense of security through mygo; she needs to care for others and wants to be needed. Just like taking care of Aine, caring for her lively and active nature, protecting her fragile, escapist heart, she can satisfy her need to be needed through this.

She could alleviate her loneliness by being by Amamiya's side, and she felt at ease in his presence. This made her want to be spoiled and wanted to release all the suppressed emotions in her heart. That's why she confessed her feelings to Amamiya in a willful manner, but didn't let him give any response.

She didn't want to hear Amamiya's answer; she just wanted to maintain the status quo. She didn't even dare to hope for anything more. She just wanted stability and didn't want any change, because change would hurt her too much, whether it was her family or her band.

She craved the stability of this situation, which is why she didn't make unrealistic demands; she chose to give and alleviate Amamiya's stress. But ultimately, she was still greedy at heart—it's human nature and quite normal. She just wanted Amamiya to fulfill a small wish of hers… to comfort herself.

Hearing Sōse's words, Amamiya couldn't help but sigh. (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)

I don't know when it happened, but it seems like my debts have piled up again...

There are so many more girls I can't let down now.

That night, he gave up thinking, because it would make him feel better.

He was simply fulfilling Shuang Shi's small wish, allowing her to lean happily against his chest and fall asleep.

Wow, it can spray this high!

Inwardly, I couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, Amamiya was like a heartless fool, watching the water fly high and splash onto the bed. If the bed hadn't been big enough, she wouldn't have been able to continue sleeping.

As for feelings... I'll leave that to tomorrow. Today, I just want to escape.

After all, I really couldn't make any promises before that agreement ended.

Another debt has been incurred...

The two of them didn't get up early the next day, which was unusual, mainly because it was Saturday.

Since they didn't have to go to school, they didn't need to get up early. The two of them woke up after 10 a.m.

The two of them didn't stay out late yesterday; they slept so comfortably that they ended up sleeping for quite a while longer.

When Shuangshi woke up, she went to look for her mother, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that her mother was not at home.

She would indeed feel a little awkward if her mother were still at home, since Amamiya was also there. She wouldn't mind either of them being home, but it was the combination of both of them that made her feel awkward.

I never expected that such a low-probability event would happen...

"Let's have something good to eat today, Lian. What would you like to eat?"

"I don't have any particular preference. Are you planning to cook?"

"Soda yo~"

Shuang Shi smiled with her eyes narrowed. She was already quite used to cooking for herself, so she changed into a more refreshing outfit to prepare for the meal.

Cooking in pajamas easily leaves you smelling strongly of pajamas, so she decided to change and put on an apron. However…

Amamiya's gaze couldn't help but fall on Sōse's thighs. Sōse, wearing short sleeves and shorts, revealed her fair legs, making it hard for Amamiya to look away.

Sōse noticed Amamiya's gaze, but she just chuckled and turned to go to the kitchen to prepare a meal.

"By the way, what about the room?"

"Household services will be provided!"

The housekeeper comes every day; you can just leave these tasks to them.

Housekeeping services usually include laundry and cooking, but Shuangshi plans to do it herself. She originally intended to practice these skills from a young age so that she could be a more skilled housewife after she got married.

Although it's highly unlikely she'll become one, her mother is just too amazing. The probability of her marrying an ordinary person is quite low; at the very least, it would have to be a marriage between equals.

When it comes to matching social status... Lian doesn't seem to have any problems, right?

In the kitchen, Sōse couldn't help but chuckle when she thought of this. The thought that she and Amamiya were in almost the same situation made her feel itchy inside.

Ah, I'm daydreaming again~

Sosei made curry chicken rice for lunch, which was mixed with diced mushrooms, potatoes, carrots and onions. It looked quite delicious. After taking a spoonful and tasting it, Amamiya couldn't help but nod and admit that it tasted very good.

It’s delicious indeed.

Watching Amamiya happily eating lunch, Sōse also enjoyed his meal. He could even taste a hint of sweetness in the curry he put into his mouth.

It must be the taste of love.

After finishing the meal, Amamiya snatched the bowl from Sase's hands and ran to wash it. Amamiya felt it was a bit unfair to make Sase wash the dishes after cooking.

So it's fair and just: one person cooks, and the other washes the dishes.

Sōse didn't insist on washing the dishes himself. Standing behind Amamiya and watching him wash the dishes, Sōse felt quite pleased with himself and looked very happy.

After finishing their meal, the two stayed at home for a while before Amamiya left Sase's house.

He had other things to do in the afternoon, so naturally he had to leave.

Shuangshi wasn't too reluctant to part ways, after all, it wasn't like they would never see each other again; they could still see each other every day if they wanted to.

Today's farewell is for tomorrow's reunion, but before leaving Amamiya, Sosei kissed him one last time.

After Amamiya left, Sōse returned to her quiet room. However, unlike usual, she didn't feel lonely.

A different state of mind leads to a different perception of the surrounding environment. Leaning back on the sofa, she couldn't help but raise her head, wondering where she should go today.

"So refreshing~"

The phone rang, and as soon as Shuangshi answered, he heard that cloying voice, which made him sigh: "What?!"

"Want to go shopping? Hehe~"

Shibuya?

"Yes, Shibuya Mai Iqi⑧Barin (Seven) Lu c Seal~"

"Okay, see you at the same place."

After hanging up the phone, Shuang Shi got up to change her clothes. Of course, she wouldn't stay at home all weekend; she still had to go out and have fun eventually.

Otherwise, it would be so boring in this empty room.

"Where's Pochi? Hasn't he arrived yet?"

When Amamiya arrived at the starry sky, he discovered that some members of the band had not yet arrived.

I tapped the heads and found that Boqi was nowhere to be found.

"She seems to still be on her way. Her home is quite far from here, so she'll be a little slow."

Hongxia offered an explanation, her nose twitching slightly as she spoke: "Brother Lian smells really strange today."

"Indeed, it has a high-end feel."

"Do you have dog noses...?"

Amamiya remarked as Nijika and Ryo leaned close to her and began to smell her. Seeing the two of them sniffing Amamiya, Kita curiously joined in as well.

"Ah! This scent... if I remember correctly, it's a really high-end shower gel, what's the brand again..."
