Chapter 164 Secret

"Shouldn't I be here?"

Kanae blinked, looking at Aoi Kanzaki with a puzzled expression, and asked in return.

"no."

Upon hearing this, Kanzaki Aoi quickly waved her hand and explained, "That's not what I meant, it's just—"

Kanae Kocho tilted her head, looking curious, and asked, "Just what?"

No, there's nothing there.

In less than a second, Kanzaki Aoi concluded that the woman in Su Yan's room was most likely Shinobu Kocho.

However, she did not tell Kanae Butterfly, but chose to keep it a secret for Su Yan.

Perhaps it wouldn't be considered hiding anything?

After all, Shinobu Kocho was the first one to be with Su Yan, and Su Yan was brought back to the Butterfly Mansion by Shinobu Kocho.

"Well, in that case, Aoi, don't keep frowning, it'll make you look ugly."

Kanae Kocho didn't dwell on Aoi Kanzaki's attempt to hide her secret.

Seeing the furrowed brows on Kanzaki Aoi's face, she tried to comfort her while gently rubbing the corners of her eyes, attempting to soothe her worries.

Kanzaki Aoi asked anxiously, "Really?"

Girls are inherently creatures who love beauty, especially after they have someone they like.

Faced with Su Yan's other contractors, all of whom were top-tier beauties, she felt even more pressure.

"Of course I was just kidding," Kanae Kocho said playfully.

Kanzaki Aoi said wistfully, "Kanae-neechan~~"

"Xiao Kui, could you prepare breakfast for your older sister? She's really hungry."

Kanae Kocho stuck out her tongue, then changed the subject, clasped her hands together, and pleaded with Aoi Kanzaki, "Please, I just want to eat a bite of Aoi's cooking. This is my lifelong request."

"By the way, if possible, I'd like the main dish for breakfast to be salt-grilled saury."

"You've made way too many requests in your life, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, Kanzaki Aoi couldn't help but roll her eyes at Kocho Kanae.

Kanae Kocho clasped her hands together and looked at Aoi Kanzaki with a sincere expression, saying, "Oh, that's right."

"Alright, alright, let me check. It should be in the ingredients delivered these past few days, right? Saury—"

Kanzaki Aoi waved her hand helplessly, her face showing an expression that said, "I really can't do anything with you."

Kanae immediately hugged Aoi Kanzaki, brought her face close to Aoi's, and gently rubbed it against hers twice.

Then she said happily, "Xiao Kui is the best."

Kanzaki Aoi pushed Kocho Kanae away with some disdain.

Then his gaze fell on the large water tank in the kitchen used to hold the fish.

They quickly pulled out a fresh saury from it.

He grabbed the cleaver from the cutting board and cleanly and efficiently prepared the ingredients.

Although she couldn't overcome her mental barrier when facing evil spirits, she found herself exceptionally adept at applying the breathing techniques she had learned to cooking.

Even Kanae Kocho, who was watching Aoi Kanzaki make breakfast, couldn't help but wonder if, given time, Aoi might be able to develop a special cooking technique called "Chef's Breathing."

"That's amazing."

Kanae Kocho stood aside watching Aoi Kanzaki demonstrate her culinary skills.

While providing emotional support to Kanzaki Aoi who was cooking, she was also thinking about how she should bring up what happened last night.

Before long, Kanzaki Aoi had prepared the salt-grilled saury that Kocho Kanae wanted to eat.

Then he served the other person a bowl of miso soup and two small dishes of side dishes to go with the rice.

"Please use it."

Kanzaki Aoi took a towel to wipe the grease off her hands and said this to Kocho Kanae.

After such an intense workout last night, Kanae Kocho was really hungry.

The aroma wafting from the dishes in front of me made my mouth water.

After putting his hands together, he said "I'm going to eat" to the food in front of him, and then picked up his bowl and chopsticks and began to eat in small bites.

Although the portions of food she eats each time are small, she appears exceptionally elegant even just by the way she eats.

But in fact, Kanae Butterfly eats quite fast.

"Thank goodness, he's finally alive."

After swallowing a large mouthful of rice, Kanae looked at Aoi Kanzaki in front of her and exclaimed sincerely, "As expected, Aoi's cooking is the best! The best!"

"It's not that exaggerated."

Kanzaki Aoi shook her head and denied it, saying, "I'm still far from good enough."

That's true, but judging from the smile on Kanzaki Aoi's face when she heard Kanae's words, it was clear that she was very pleased.

Kanae looked into Aoi Kanzaki's eyes and said earnestly, "I don't care, in my heart Aoi's cooking is the best."

Kanzaki Aoi said, "Eat yours."

Seeing this, Kanae Kocho did not continue to speak, but silently enjoyed the breakfast in front of her.

With the last drop of flavorful soup, I ate it.

Kanae Kocho put down the bowl in her hand. Seeing that Aoi Kanzaki was about to help her clean up, she stopped her, saying, "There's no rush to finish this later. Let's talk about what happened last night first."

"What happened last night—"

Upon hearing this, the shame that Kanzaki Aoi had just felt, which had been dispelled by Kocho Kanae, surged back into her heart.

She quickly lowered her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Kanae-neechan."

"I'm sorry, Xiaokui."

Kanae Kocho also apologized along with Aoi Kanzaki when she spoke.

Their words overlapped in unison.

"?"

A question mark appeared on Kanae's face.

I really didn't expect that Kanzaki Aoi had done anything to wrong herself.

Kanae Kocho patted her round belly and asked Aoi Kanzaki timidly, "Did you put something in my breakfast?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant."

Kanzaki Aoi quickly waved her hand in denial, saying, "It was me before—I shouldn't have secretly followed Lord Su Yan without telling you—"

"this one?"

Kanae Kocho breathed a sigh of relief and said in a somewhat nonchalant tone, "I thought you were going to say something, but actually I already knew about this."

"what?"

Kanzaki Aoi was taken aback.

Kanae Kocho added, "And Su Yan already knew I knew all along."

"this----"

Kanzaki Aoi stood there, completely stunned.

Upon hearing Kanae's words, a mental storm instantly began to rage within him.

"Now that you've finished telling your story, it's my turn to speak, isn't it?" Kanae Kocho glanced at Aoi Kanzaki and said.

Kanzaki Aoi snapped out of her daze, looked at Kocho Kanae whose face was full of apology, thought for a moment, and nodded in response, "Go ahead."

"I should be the one apologizing for what happened last night."

Kanae Butterfly said apologetically, "I deliberately appeared to scare you away because I wanted to be alone with Su Yan."

Kanzaki Aoi's blue eyes widened instantly, and she looked at Kocho Kanae with some anger.

Seeing this, Kanae Kocho lowered her head even further.

Kanae Kocho said, "It's my fault for being so upset. If you're really angry, you can—"

"Stop talking."

Kanzaki Aoi shook her head.

She was a little angry at Kanae's actions, but only a tiny bit.

Even if he hadn't appeared last night, she couldn't have had Su Yan all to herself for the entire night.

If it had been any later last night, Su Yan would definitely have traveled back to Greed Island and started a night of debauchery.

Although she could have gone with them.

Moreover, that woman, Yuriko Takashiro, had invited her to join them on several occasions.

but----

She didn't dare.

Therefore, the anger in her heart was not as great as Kanae Butterfly had imagined.

However, seeing the self-reproachful expression on Kanae's face, Aoi Kanzaki suddenly thought of something.

Then, with a hint of hesitation, she asked a rather personal question: "Um, Kanae-neechan, did you two... you know... last night?"

'

Kanae asked, puzzled, "Which one is that?"

"That's it—"

Kanzaki Aoi glanced around.

She then leaned close to Kanae's ear and quietly explained to her what that meant.

Furthermore, he demonstrated the corresponding movements to Kanae Kocho in a very appropriate manner.

"Um."

Kanae blushed.

She looked at Kanzaki Aoi with an incredulous expression, as if to say, "How do you know so much?"

Then he lowered his head and softly responded.

Seeing the expression on Kanae's face, Aoi Kanzaki felt a sense of helplessness.

She didn't want to know that much.

Unfortunately, on Greed Island, there is a passionate woman named Yuriko Takashiro.

He not only taught her a lot of knowledge, but also taught her many postures.

Yuriko Takagi is practically a demon, and the knowledge and techniques she was taught were nothing short of demonic whispers.

Unfortunately, I couldn't resist listening to it, so much so that whenever I had free time, I couldn't help but run to Greed Island to ask the other party for advice.

However, when it comes to the most important question, every time I ask the other person what their experience was like the first time, they always remain silent and just look at me with a meaningful expression.

It was as if she was encouraging herself to take the initiative to attack Su Yan.

So now that she finally has a chance to get under her thumb, she doesn't want to miss it.

So, Kanzaki Aoi curiously asked Kocho Kanae, "Was last night your first time, Kanae-neechan?"

"Um.

""

Upon hearing this, Kanae Kocho lowered her head even further.

"Could Kanae-neechan tell me what it felt like the first time?"

Aoi Kanzaki's lips curled into a smile, her eyes filled with curiosity as she looked at Kanae Kocho: "If you tell me, I'll forgive you."

"Oh, this."

Kanae Kocho paused for a moment, then puffed out her cheeks slightly and looked at Aoi Kanzaki, saying, "Aoi, you've gone astray."

Kanzaki Aoi asked, "Eh, is it not allowed?"

"OK!"

Seeing the disappointment on Kanzaki Aoi's face, Kocho Kanae gritted her teeth and agreed to the other party's request.

She beckoned to Kanzaki Aoi with her finger, signaling her to lean closer so she could whisper something to her.

At that moment, an unexpected voice interrupted their actions.

"Huh? Kanae, what are you doing here?"

Kanae Kocho and Aoi Kanzaki turned around in a panic to look in the direction of the sound.

The male protagonist of the topic they were discussing was Su Yan.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on both of their faces.

Kanae Butterfly quickly asked, "Su Yan? What brings you here?"

Su Yan pointed to the tableware he was holding and said, "Xiao Ren and I have finished breakfast, so we came to return the tableware."

"I see."

Kanae Kocho nodded, then asked somewhat hesitantly, "Um, you told Shinobu, right? Has Shinobu calmed down?"

"Well----"

However, Su Yan's voice sounded even weaker than hers when she answered the question: "I'd say it's reduced by half."

"half?"

Kanae Kocho tilted her head and looked at the man in front of her.

Su Yan scratched his cheek, his gaze darting around, somewhat afraid to look into Kanae Butterfly's eyes: "The other half is now in your hands."

"What do you mean by handing it over to me?"

Kanae's confusion deepened.

Su Yan, trying to evade the question, said, "Well, Shinobu will tell you later, or you can go find Shinobu now."

"I understand, I'll go find Shinobu now."

Seeing that Su Yan seemed to have some unspeakable difficulty, Kanae Butterfly didn't ask any further questions.

He nodded, but asked Su Yan about the location of Shinobu Kocho.

Then she turned to Kanzaki Aoi with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry, Aoi. I'll talk to you about that later."

"It's okay."

Kanzaki Aoi shook her head.

They didn't really care, since the male lead, Su Yan, was right there.

Even if Kanae Butterfly has the nerve to say it, she herself might not have the nerve to hear it.

After Kanae Kocho left, Su Yan put his arm around Aoi Kanzaki's slender waist and asked, "Aoi, what were you talking about?"

"Secret~"

Kanzaki Aoi smiled mysteriously.

Su Yan feigned displeasure and said, "Oh, so you guys have secrets you're hiding from me?"

"Lord Su Yan clearly hid it from me first."

Su Yan countered, "What have I been hiding from you?"

"Even though Kanae-neechan already knew about us, and you know she already knew, she still kept it from me."

Kanzaki Aoi looked at Su Yan with a resentful expression and said, "You made me so worried last night."

Su Yan shrugged and said, "Isn't it because you like this sneaky feeling?"

"

"7

Kanzaki Aoi opened her mouth, but was immediately rendered speechless by Su Yan's words. She changed the subject, saying, "Was that person in your room just now Shinobu Kocho?"

"Yes."

Su Yan nodded, not thinking there was anything to hide about it.

After all, this wasn't the first time Shinobu had stayed in her room all night.

This happened on my very first night at the Butterfly Mansion.

The difference lies in...

That time, the person who slept with her was Kanae Kocho.

This time, Shinobu Kocho was simply forced to sleep alone in her own room for one night.

After receiving a positive reply from Su Yan, Kanzaki Aoi became even more curious.

He continued, "So last night you were with Kanae-neechan and Shinobu-sama?"

Su Yan looked at the curious girl with confusion: "Why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing, I'm just a little curious. Kanae-neechan is so gentle, she'll definitely agree to your perverted request, but Shinobu-sama—"

Kanzaki Aoi hesitated before saying, "I really can't believe that someone with her personality would agree to do something like this."

"What does Shinobu agree to?"

Su Yan shook his head: "I was only with Kanae last night."

"That----"

Kanzaki Aoi wants to ask, why did Kocho Shinobu appear in your room?

However, before she could ask the question, Su Yan had already guessed what she wanted to ask and interrupted her directly, saying, "What happened this morning was an accident."

Although he didn't intend to hide the fact that Shinobu Kocho was in his room, he kept quiet about what happened to Shinobu Kocho last night.

Thinking of this, Su Yan couldn't help but sigh at the saying that women are made of water.

This statement seems to be perfectly embodied, especially in the girls of the Butterfly Mansion.

They all look like giant salamanders.

It's so moist and juicy!

Kanzaki Aoi asked curiously, "What accident?"

"Secret~"

In response, Su Yan simply used the same answer that Kanzaki Aoi had used to brush him off.

the other side.

Kanae Kocho has also found her younger sister, Shinobu Kocho, in Su Yan's room.

Fortunately, Su Yan had already cleaned the room beforehand.

So apart from a slight odor, there's nothing wrong with it.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

However, Kanae Kocho didn't have much experience in this area and didn't notice anything wrong with it.

"I'm sorry, Shinobu, I was wrong. Can we make up with my sister?"

Kanae sat down on the edge of the bed, grabbed Shinobu's hand, and before Shinobu could speak, offered a sincere apology.

Shinobu Kocho frowned slightly, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes.

She was initially somewhat reluctant to take revenge on Kanae Kocho.

But when I heard the other party say the word "reconciliation," I couldn't help but think of that scumbag Su Yan.

The slight reluctance in my heart vanished instantly.

However, she did not show it in front of her older sister, Kanae Kocho.

Butterfly Shinobu held her hand and said calmly, "Don't be silly, we're the closest of sisters, aren't we?"

How could I blame you?

"Really?"

Kanae's eyes lit up.

However, I still had some doubts about Shinobu Kocho's attitude.

"Of course it's true."

Shinobu Kocho changed the subject, saying, "But it's impossible to say I'm not angry at all."

"Shinobu, punish your older sister. If that will make you feel better."

"it is good."

Shinobu's decisive voice made Kanae's heart leap into her throat.

It wasn't until the other party offered a punishment plan that her heart was able to return to normal.

Shinobu Kocho deliberately pondered for a while in front of Kanae Kocho before revealing the punishment plan she had already devised: "Then I'll punish you by forbidding you from sleeping with me or with that scumbag Su Yan tonight."

"Can."

Kanae Kocho agreed without hesitation.

After all, she suffered so much last night, and her body still feels a little sore.

Forbidding her from being with Su Yan tonight actually helped a lot; otherwise, given her current physical condition, her only option would have been to ask Su Yan for favors.

But this kind of thing—

As traditional as she is, she's still not entirely able to accept it.

And this is perfect, because she can sleep with Kanzaki Aoi tonight and finish telling her what she didn't finish saying earlier.

She achieved three things at once; Kanae Butterfly was simply winning big.

However, what she didn't notice was...

The moment she agreed to Shinobu's request, a barely perceptible smile flashed in the other person's purple eyes.
