Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

Hanabi Hanabira let out a lazy morning whimper from her little nose, slightly raised her chin, and said softly:

"Kai-kun...it itches..."

Uesugi Kai pressed his face close to her soft cheek: "Hanabi was fidgeting again tonight. Do you know how many times I had to pull the sheets?"

Their faces were very close, and Hanamaru Hanabi's eyes were slightly closed, her drowsiness not yet dissipated.

"Fireworks... didn't want it to be like this either..."

"Isn't it comfortable to sleep while holding me?"

"No way..."

"Why does Hanabi always hug this shark in the mornings?"

"It was a gift from Kai-kun...it's so cute..."

He pressed his chin against her fair and defined collarbone, inhaling the girl's fragrance along her jade-like neck.

"Little Fireworks... still smells so good."

Hanabi Hanabi's face flushed red: "Kai-kun... don't say such strange things..."

......

"I missed the wedding yesterday, is that okay?"

Hanabi Hanamaru stretched her neck to meet his close-set head, the intimate gesture filling her heart with a warm, ticklish feeling.

"It's alright... As long as Hanabi has Kai-kun with her..."

Hanabi Hanamaru gradually awoke from her sleepiness, turned around, and looked at him with her two little hands curled up on her chest.

A button on the thin nightgown at the chest was undone, creating a subtle and hazy beauty.

As their eyes met, Hanabi Hanabi was defeated, blushing and lowering her head.

Kai Uesugi couldn't resist hugging the girl's soft waist, looking at her delicately pursed cherry lips, and kissing her.

......

"Time to get up."

Hanabi Hanamaru's violet eyes sparkled. She bit her lip, hesitated for a long time, and then said shyly, "Kai-kun...can I...?"

"No."

......

"Bad guy...."

Hanabi Hanamaru lowered her head, her thin nightgown disheveled, as if someone had been crumpling it.

"Kai-kun... he's been fidgeting all night..."

Her cheeks were flushed, and she crossed her arms and legs.

“You also pull my blanket at night.”

"It's because Kai-kun touched me randomly that Hanabi felt itchy, which is why she's like this..." Hanamaru Hanabi suddenly realized.

"You snuggle into my arms all night, how can I not hold your waist while we sleep?"

Uesugi Kai grabbed her little feet that were wrapped around her legs and pressed her pink and soft toes.

Hanabi Hanabi looked down at her little feet that were being held and said, "Hanabi just wants to sleep with Kai-kun by her side... I can fall asleep peacefully with Kai-kun by my side."

“But if Kai keeps touching her, Hanabi will get very itchy and won’t be able to fall asleep.”

It's itchy again.

"Little Firework, do you want to feel itchier?" He suddenly gave a strange smile.

Hanabi Hanamaru saw his mischievous grin and instinctively shrank back, tentatively saying, "Kai... Kai-kun, don't do anything bad..."

“Soon.” Uesugi Kai smiled.

"Haha~ Kai, Kai-kun... no!"

Hanabi's adorable face immediately lit up with a smile, and she reached out her little hand to stop him, "No, no! Don't tickle Hanabi's feet."

###Chapter 172 Qixi Festival, and Before Qixi Festival###

Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

Kendo is just a tool for Uesugi Kai to make money; without money, he would have to be kept by Hanabi.

Uesugi is definitely not the kind of guy who likes to live off women.

It's pretty good, though.

Several high school girls in sailor uniforms sat together in the classroom, chatting with each other.

"After Qixi Festival and the sports festival, it'll be summer vacation. Hey, have you thought about how you're going to spend this summer vacation?"

"What else can we do but stay home and study?"

"Oh? A whole summer vacation? That's too tiring. It's too hard not to relax."

"Well... that's true, but I have a goal for higher education. I'll be a senior in high school next year, so how can I not work hard?"

"I think students are divided into different classes in their senior year of high school, right?"

"Yes, I heard that the shifts are scheduled according to the deviation value."

"We won't break up, will we?"

"If you don't work hard this summer and just want to play, this is what will happen."

"..."

"So there's no other way? I don't want to try."

"Don't want to work hard? Hehehe~ I can give Reia-chan a suggestion—Reia-chan, you're pretty, how about you go to Kabukicho and find a drunken old man? Being a priestess wouldn't be bad!"

"Go to hell! What kind of advice is that?"

"Haha, didn't Reia-chan say she didn't want to work hard?"

"My family isn't short of money! Who wants to listen to your ridiculous advice!"

"Not bad, not bad. I think with your looks and figure, Lingai-chan, you'd definitely be very popular among older men."

"You die too!"

"Haha~"

Several high school girls in sailor uniforms were laughing and wrestling together, their soft, cloud-like pleated skirts fluttering in the wind.

In this situation, boys usually peek.

During the break between the second and third periods after the morning assembly, Uesugi Kai came out of Haneda-sensei's office and glanced at the overcast sky.

The gentle plum rain that soaks the courtyard soothes the soul.

The plum rain season, which lasts for dozens of days, is named after the ripening of unripe plums around the summer solstice.

The only downside is the humid air, which makes it difficult to dry clothes.

Hanabi Hanamaru walked out of the classroom, and Kai Uesugi stopped her and several of her female classmates.

"I like you."

Xiaohuahuo's face is easily flushed, so it turned red again.

She clutched her Chinese textbook tightly to her chest, looking very embarrassed.

"Kai-kun...why are you suddenly bringing this up...?"

Hanabi Hanabi's close female classmates were all around her, looking at Uesugi Kai with surprise at her calm expression.

Just because they're engaged... does that mean they can be this open-minded?

This is in the hallway! How can someone just casually say something that others would have to muster up the courage to say?

Seeing that it wasn't working, Uesugi Kai continued, "Excuse me, everyone, I'd like to talk to Hanabi."

After the girls left, Hanabi Hanabi stood with her two little leather shoes side by side in the corridor, looking up at him.

"Kai-kun...?"

Seeing her confusion, Uesugi Kai explained, "Tomorrow is Tanabata, and I'm practicing confessing my feelings to you."

Hanabi Hanabi's beautiful eyes sparkled: "But Hanabi... I already promised Kai-kun."

"What did you promise?"

Little Firework knew he was up to no good, and remembering what happened the day before yesterday, she hugged the book tightly, took a deep breath, and said softly:

"You bad guy..."

The sound was still so faint.

Hanabi Hanabi has been calling him a bad guy ever since the day before yesterday.

There's a reason for this, of course—when you spend a lot of time together, you'll inevitably encounter some unavoidable things.

For example, if I go to see her in the morning and I have a key, I accidentally see her changing clothes and underwear when I open the door.

White legs, white back, white...

The process... well... it's hard to describe.

Uesugi never imagined that he would actually encounter such a fan service scene that only exists in anime.

As a normal high school student, I have to say—it's very nice.

So he stood still, waiting for Xiaohuahuo to react.

......

Seeing that he seemed to be recalling something, Hanabi Hanabi blushed, her weak voice as soft as ever:

"You bad guy..."

Then, with her head down and holding the book, she continued on her way, passing him by.
