Chapter 293 "Counterattack" begins

Humming a tune, Goro and Tai both seemed quite happy. Seeing the three of them running around the house naked, Mirai frowned and asked, "Wait...wait, what are you doing?"

Goro and the other two walked up the stairs. Hime said nonchalantly, "Since we can't take a bath, we'll go play in the water. It's very comfortable." When he said the second half of the sentence, Hime even stopped and stood in front of Mirai to show off.

In the future, unable to bear it any longer, she stammered, "At least put on some clothes, you hear me?"

He smiled and pointed to the white line on the ground, saying, "On our side of the battlefield, we are free to do whatever we want."

Hearing what Aimee said, the three girls simultaneously looked down. Indeed, they were on their territory; what they wanted to do, the girls really couldn't say. Helpless, Ichigo and Mirai could only grit their teeth and watch Aimee make faces as he went upstairs. Mirai's face was incredibly gloomy; if they hadn't been the ones who had put the line on, Mirai probably would have rushed over and pinned Aimee to the ground and given him a good beating.

In the bathroom, Mirai scrubbed the floor while angrily saying, "What is that?"

Future gritted her teeth and scrubbed the floor, wishing she could use the ground as a weapon to grind it mercilessly. Yu Nai, however, remained unaffected, calmly saying, "Aren't they provoking us?"

Ichigo also said, "It was Goro's idea, wasn't it? Kazuta Hime wouldn't have come up with something like this."

Future stood up straight and said unhappily, "They're having so much fun playing in the water, but we have to clean the bathhouse. It's so unfair!"

Xin cleaned the basin, looking helplessly at the future and saying, "There's nothing we can do about it."

Yu Nai said, "It was our decision not to let boys use this."

Mirai turned to look at Ikuno and Kokoro and said, "That's true, but why do we have to do all the cleaning ourselves? It would be so much better if it were like eating and washing clothes, with someone else doing it for us!" Mirai raised the brush high and kept grumbling.

As the clock struck twelve, Ichigo, Kokoro, Mirai, and Ikuno stood at the cafeteria entrance, staring incredulously at the boys inside feasting. The boys, munching on their food with obvious delight, even made faces as if they were enjoying it immensely, enthusiastically showing off to the four girls outside. Goro turned around, looked at the four girls outside, and said with a smile, "Sorry, we've taken over this place. Anyway, we didn't put any girls' tape on it."

At first glance, the tape that originally divided the entire house in two was no longer the same. The tape had broken in the middle, and its position had completely changed. The area enclosed by the tape had completely shifted away from the cafeteria; the right side of the tape now only included the bathroom, while the cafeteria had appeared on the left side of the tape.

He glared and opened his mouth wide, stuffing a piece of cake into his mouth, clearly showing off to the girls. Taihe Goro, on the other hand, ate his meal normally, showing no intention of showing off. Zero sat next to Goro, helplessly watching the three boys arguing with the girls, but he didn't say anything. After all, Jing Chen had told him before that this farce would end soon.

"Ah, delicious! Today's food is especially delicious!" Yanmu said loudly on purpose, making the girls outside the door look on with helpless envy. There was nothing they could do; with the tape restricting their actions, no matter how much Yanmu acted recklessly, they couldn't do anything about it.

Future took a step forward blankly, gritting her teeth as she said, "Too cunning, not human!"

Goro smiled helplessly, "Indeed, then let's abolish all the previous rules and have dinner together, how about it?"

Ichigo and Ikuno immediately realized it was a trap, but Mirai, unable to resist the temptation, walked step by step toward the cafeteria. Ichigo noticed in time and rushed up to hug Mirai around the waist, saying, "Mirai, you can't go there!" Ikuno also reached out to help pull Mirai back.

Zero Two arrived at this moment, brushing past the girls and heading towards the cafeteria. Mirai was startled to see Zero Two walk past her. Zero Two curiously glanced back, then turned and stepped over the tape, disappearing into the cafeteria amidst Mirai's drooling gaze.

"No!" Mirai shouted as Ikuno and Ichigo dragged her back into the room. Kokoro stood there, not knowing what to do, and could only watch as Ikuno and Ichigo pulled Mirai upstairs before quickly following them.

Looking at everything outside, Zero felt helpless. Why be so stubborn? Goro also sighed, "He's really stubborn."

……

In the courtyard, Zero sat on the steps, watching Ling Zero Two step over the tape, and said helplessly, "Everyone is so stubborn. If this continues, things will get difficult. We need to think of something to do quickly."

Zero Two tilted his head back, a volleyball balanced on his forehead, and said, "Is that what Darling thinks?"

"Huh?" Zero looked up in confusion at Zero-Two, wondering what Zero-Two meant by those words.

Zero squatted slightly, then suddenly stood up straight, heading the ball high and saying, "I think it's the exact opposite." He then reached out and caught the ball steadily, a slight smile playing on his lips as he looked at Zero and continued, "It's not even enough."

Zero looked at Zero Two, puzzled, not understanding what Zero Two meant. At that moment, Jing Chen appeared beside Zero. Leaning against a pillar, still eating a lollipop, Jing Chen looked up at the sky and said, "I agree with Zero Two's idea. Rather than ending it here, let this confrontation last a little longer. This way, the boys and girls can try to see things from each other's perspectives. They're different from you, Zero. You can choose not to think from Zero Two's point of view, but they can't. They need to use this method to strengthen their bond; otherwise, if similar situations arise again, will this unit still be able to exist?"

"That's right," Zero Two said.

……

In the bathroom, Xin filled a showerhead with water, but her expression revealed that she was quite distressed by this cold war. Sighing, Xin didn't know what to do. Carrying the showerhead, Xin went alone to the greenhouse. This greenhouse was filled with various flowers. As soon as she opened the door, Xin saw a boy with long, silver-white hair standing with his back to her.

Seemingly hearing the door open, the silver-haired boy turned around and looked back, somewhat puzzled. She had never seen this silver-haired boy before, and how did he get here?

"You are... Xin, right?" the boy with long silver hair asked.

"You are..." Xin asked.

The boy with long silver hair smiled. "My name is Jing Chen. You may not know me, but I know you, my lovely Kokoro."

Xin closed the door, picked up the watering can, walked to Jingchen's side, squatted down to water the flowers, and asked Jingchen, "Do you like plants too?"

Jing Chen hummed in agreement and said, "This place is calming, and seeing so many flowers makes me feel very at ease. Did you plant all these flowers?"

Xin shook her head, and as she did so, she noticed that the books in her pocket seemed about to fall out. She quickly reached out to stop them and said, "No, these books are trained by specialists. I'm just responsible for taking care of them."

"Xin is very thoughtful." Hearing Jing Chen's words, Xin looked at Jing Chen with some doubt. Jing Chen smiled and said, "These flowers are blooming so beautifully all because of Xin's careful care. It must be hard work taking care of so many flowers."

Xin shook her head and said, "It's not hard work."

Jing Chen took the showerhead from Xin's hand and said, "This isn't the first time I've been here. Since you've borrowed Xin's carefully tended plants to relax, let me help out too."
