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

She breathed out white steam, her face still flushed: "Kai-kun, where are we going to find her?"

"Where? Are there any places she likes to go?"

Hanamaru Hanabi shook her head.

"No?"

"Hanabi doesn't know where Yuuki likes to go; she's been abroad for the past few years..."

"What should we do? We can't possibly search every corner." Uesugi Kai frowned and pondered, but after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out where Kai liked to stay.

The school? A place I loved spending my childhood? Or the Tokyo Skytree?

"Kai-kun".

"What, have you thought of fireworks yet?"

“We can ask Shin-zuki. Yuuki-chan is his older sister, he'll definitely know.”

"Okay, I don't have his phone number, you should ask him quickly."

"Ah."

Hanabi Hanamaru patted her clothes and finally found her phone in the right inner pocket. She quickly unlocked it, found her contacts, and found Hanamaru Nobuyuki's phone number in the Hanamaru family section.

She made the call, holding the phone to her ear.

The call was quickly connected, and a very polite voice came from the other end:

"Is this... Hanabi-neechan? Why are you calling me all of a sudden... Merry Christmas in advance, neechan. By the way, is Kai-nii with you? If he is, please ask you to give him my regards."

###Chapter 536 The Eve of Christmas (4)###

Kai Uesugi opened his eyes.

What comes into view is an empty ceiling, with the morning light that the gauze curtains have failed to block.

He lay there on the bed in a daze for a long time, then suddenly reached out with his left hand to the side.

No.

Nothing at all.

It was completely empty.

Kai Uesugi sighed.

Damn it, I've lost my morning perks for the past few days.

You know, back then, all I had to do when I got up was stretch out my paw to the side and I could touch the places she wouldn't normally let me touch.

He could also gently rub her, like when he sneaked up on her while she was sleeping.

Then I'll give her a good morning kiss on her small, silly, and adorable sleeping face.

Seeing her face flushed with cherry blossoms makes me feel happy all day long.

As for now... that's all.

They're all gone.

It's been gone for several days!

No, I have to ask her why she doesn't want to sleep with me. With that thought, Uesugi Kai threw off the covers, put on her slippers, and left the bedroom.

Just then, Hanabi came out of the restroom on the second floor, and the two bumped into each other.

"Kai-kun, —"

Just a second before Hanabi Hanabi was about to say good morning, Uesugi Kai reached out his right hand and pinned her against the wall.

With a thud.

The girl's entire back was pressed against the wall.

Hanabi Hanamaru hunched her shoulders, gripping the wall behind her with both hands, looking at the handsome face that kept getting closer to her with a little fear.

"Kai, Kai-kun... Good morning..."

"Okay, good morning."

The morning light in the corridor diffused across his profile.

The warm, inviting light and the assertive pose of the wall slam reminded Hanabi Hanamaru of the morning dramas she usually watched on Fuji TV.

The male lead is handsome, and the female lead blushes.

Then the male lead kissed the female lead shyly.

No way! What is Hanabi thinking!

I can't think about these things...

Kai Uesugi noticed that Hanabi Hanamaru suddenly started to shrink back and deliberately brought her face closer.

"Tell me, why don't you want to sleep with me anymore?"

"Kai, Kai-kun...their noses are too close..."

"You don't like me being so close?"

"No, I didn't say I didn't like it..." she said softly, turning her face to the side and shrinking her head to avoid his burning gaze.

"Since you don't dislike it, then sleep with me tonight."

"Can't......"

"Huh? Why? I'll turn into a cat for you to pet, I'll use my arm as a pillow for you, and I didn't say anything when you stole my blanket at night. Also, don't you like to sleep with your legs wrapped around me at night?"

Hanabi Hanamaru was visibly stunned after hearing this, and asked blankly, "Are these things possible...?"

"of course."

Kai Uesugi leaned his head even closer, his nose brushing against her snow-white neck on her shoulder: "Don't let Hanabi-chan's usual sweet and soft appearance fool you, she reveals her true colors at night."

The breath on her neck tickled her skin, and Hanamaru Hanabi retorted in a weak voice, her face flushed:

"No, no, that's not true..."

"Resist what? Isn't this adorable? Hanabi needs to understand that."

Kai Uesugi stepped forward and bit her earlobe, exhaling a warm breath.

Hanabi Hanamaru visibly trembled, and in an instant, it felt as if an electric current had passed through her body, causing her to go limp.

"Kai-kun..."

Even her soft, weak voice carried a tender, shy blush.

Perhaps it was the filter of love, but the girl suddenly thought his face was incredibly handsome, and she suddenly longed to be close to him, to be enveloped by his voice, and to be... gently kissed...

No! Why am I thinking about these things again... I can't think about them!

Because of her height, Hanabi Hanabu's petite body was now huddled under his wall-pinning gesture.

Kai Uesugi could sense the girl's subtle changes, so he used his left hand to pinch her chin and pull it toward himself.

Hanabi Hanamaru raised her chin, her bright purple eyes trembling in panic. Seeing his mouth getting closer and closer, she quickly closed her eyes.

Gradually, she felt the warmth of his breath, but just as their lips touched and Hanabi Hanabi was ready to kiss, he suddenly pulled away.

Hanabi Hanamaru suddenly felt her body lose all strength, and the tightness in her heart was instantly drained away.

The sweetness that her soft lips hadn't yet expressed was fleeting. She subconsciously pursed her lips, wanting to savor it, but there was nothing she could do.

Finally, he opened his watery, violet-colored eyes.

"Kai-kun..."

The word "Kai-kun" was drawn out a little, like a young girl's reproach, or a sweet reminder.

Seeing her pursed, soft lips, Uesugi Kai said in a serious tone:

"You'll only get a good morning kiss if you sleep with me tonight."

His true intentions were revealed, and Hanamaru Hanabi snapped out of her girlish reverie.

Quickly push your hands against his chest.

"No, Hanabi is doing a self-examination."

"Self-reflection? Reflect on what? Hmm? Tell me about it."

Kai Uesugi realized that pinning her against the wall like this gave him a strong sense of masculine dominance, and because of Hanabi Hanabi's weak personality, this dominance was even more pronounced.

Hanabi Hanabi almost shrank into a tiny girl under his wall-pinning.

"I can't say..."

"There is nothing to say."

"That's right, you just can't say it..."

"If you don't tell me, I won't kiss you."

"Fine, then don't kiss me..." Hanabi muttered softly, turning her face away again to avoid his gaze.

This action seemed more like out of fear.

"So you won't kiss me then?" Uesugi Kai smiled.

He knew what Little Firework was afraid of.

As she pushed him away with her two small hands, he leaned close to her ear and said, "Hanabi-chan really likes children. Does Hanabi-chan know how children are born? I don't have a match today, so I can spend the whole day with you in the room playing with the kids."

Hanabi Hanamaru blushed instantly.

Uesugi Kai pressed his advantage, forcefully questioning:

"Speak quickly! Otherwise, I'll turn Hanabi's little belly into a little house tonight!"

"So lewd..."

"What?" She spoke so softly that Uesugi Kai didn't hear her at all.

Hanabi Hanabi puffed out her cheeks slightly, then said in a still weak voice, "Hanabi... doesn't want to become a perverted girl..."
