My love index is at its maximum.

After a short rest, it was almost noon.

After lunch, the three of them took the elevator to the planetarium on the thirteenth floor, where a pilgrimage poster for the single-player game "Persona 5" was displayed at the entrance.

In this game, players can pursue different beautiful girls in side quests, and then take them to the planetarium in the Sunshine 60 building in Ikebukuro, where they can lie under the immersive starry sky CG images to unlock the lap pillow achievement.

That's exactly what Tsukasa Tazaki came for!

They booked the entire planetarium, and after all the other tourists had left, the three of them, guided by staff, walked into a world of dazzling starlight, as bright as a torrential downpour.

All the lights were off, the air conditioner was blowing at a gentle pace, the ceiling was filled with stars, and there was complete silence.

"It feels so real," Tsukasa Tazaki exclaimed, lying down on the lawn.

The grass was fake and didn't have the fresh scent of real grass, but it was soft enough, so the experience was still quite good.

"Does it feel like there are only the three of us left in the whole world?" Qichuan Wei lay down on his left, her legs stretched out, her fair feet crossed, in a completely relaxed posture.

Kuriyama Sakura lay down on the far right: "That's hardly a good thing."

After they finished speaking, the three of them, each with their own thoughts, fell silent and looked up at the twinkling stars, which were so beautiful they resembled a clear, bottomless river of light.

If only Yui Kikawa weren't here...

If only Kuriyama Sakura weren't here...

If only the adorable boss lady, Shimamoto-sensei, were here... Oh, and the silly Shikami too.

No, that's my sister-in-law!

Tazaki cursed himself under his breath and stretched out both hands at the same time.

The black stockings on her beautiful legs felt delicate and soft to the touch, with smooth and flowing lines. They were so soft that it was easy to become completely captivated and unable to extricate oneself from them.

Kuriyama Sakura turned around and clamped Tazaki Tsukasa's hand to keep him from moving. The lingering tenderness warmed her heart, and she felt like she could fall asleep at any moment.

The white-stockinged legs felt firm and bouncy to the touch, with a touch of flesh; pressing them produced a slight bounce, just as perfect as their owner.

Yuya Kikawa turned around, grabbed his hand, and placed one hand on Tsukasa Tazaki's lower abdomen, pulling him closer to her.

Tazaki simply pulled his hands back and put his arms around the two girls' shoulders. Feeling the warmth emanating from the two girls, he temporarily put aside all the responsibilities he had to bear and fell asleep peacefully in the quiet.

The two beautiful girls struggled for a moment, but in the end, their noses touched his shoulder, and they both drifted off to sleep.

Today’s results are as follows.

Yui Kichikawa won first but then lost, while Sakura Kuriyama lost first but then won, resulting in a draw between the two.

And after three shows—the Tsukasa Tazaki Aquarium, the Haunted House, and the Planetarium—…

We've won so much!

Chapter 223 The Counterattack Begins Now!

On August 22, the day before the typhoon arrived, Tokyo's weather was unusually clear.

After finishing his morning run, Tsukasa Tazaki asked the bodyguard at the door for a bottle of Pocari Sweat and slowly walked back to the backyard along the path while drinking it.

The courtyard is so spacious that it can make you lose your way. There are bamboo groves, ponds, stone lanterns and small hills, as well as moss, insects and kittens. Everywhere is full of novelty and fun.

It was still early, and a thin mist hung in the air everywhere.

The last rays of summer sunlight fell silently, draping the whole world in a layer of milky white golden gauze.

Like a fish swimming upstream, Tsukasa Tazaki drifts along the river of time.

When the golden retriever was young, he had a very lively personality. She was mischievous and liked to run rampant. It was common for her to climb trees, dig out bird's nests, and water ant holes with boiling water. In order to protect the cowardly little boy, she even rolled up her sleeves and chased and beat the children of her generation while sweating.

But from the day she became the heir, her life began to become heavy and bitter.

I felt frustrated but couldn't express it.

All I can do is ask myself again and again, is life always so painful?

Is it only like this when I was a child?

Fortunately, she didn't know what "growing up" meant at that time, otherwise she would have definitely received the answer "it's always like this".

Cherry blossoms fall and bloom again, moss turns yellow and green again, and the girl grows up with each passing year, how fast time flies.

Tsukasa Tazaki picked a golden rose from the garden and walked towards her room, humming "Under the Cherry Blossom Tree".

An unprecedented love

But there's a kind of warmth.

The bicycle path home

Listening to your singing along the way

As the song progressed, it automatically veered towards "sperm donation in Thailand" and "cucumbers being transported across the ocean in plates"...

Pushing open the door, August sunlight streamed through the glass windows, softly and evenly bathing the entire bed, the pristine white sheets shimmering. The door to time was pushed open from the inside, old and new light mingling together, as if one could reach out and touch a dreamlike, beautiful scene.

Kikawa Yui was sleeping on her side in bed.

She had delicate features, fair skin, and beautifully shaped lips that were slightly pursed. Her golden hair spread out on the pillow like golden sand.

This is a princess trapped in a sleeping curse, waiting for a prince to awaken her with a kiss.

Tazaki Tsukasa squatted by the bed, gently rubbing the tip of her delicate nose with a flower, the sunlight enveloping the two of them like a warm wax ball.

It's a little itchy~

The princess squinted and rubbed her nose, then slowly opened her eyelids, revealing her magnificent sapphire eyes.

“Happy, playful…” Tsukasa Tazaki’s gaze met hers, and he said like sunshine, “My heart moves with you.”

Qichuan Wei looked down at the flowers, expressionless: "Go tell your aunt."

“Okay.” Tsukasa Tazaki stood up and walked towards the door. “I’ll go tell Auntie again. She’ll definitely be so touched that she’ll hug and kiss me.”

One step, two steps, three steps...

Just as I reached the door, a shout came from behind me, as expected.

"Taka! Tsukasa! You come back here right now!"

Shamelessness vs. arrogance; shamelessness wins the first round.

Tsukasa Tazaki locked the door, kicked off his shoes, and rolled into bed under the thin blanket.

The moment their bodies touched, Kikawa Yui, who had been so angry that her chest heaved, immediately became docile and curled up in his arms.

Two seconds later, she gave Tsukasa Tazaki a disgusted shove: "You're covered in sweat, you stink!"

"Why aren't you going for your morning run today?" Tsukasa Tazaki put one hand under her waist, pulled her close, and gently rubbed his chin against her forehead.

"I can't get up."

"Being in a relationship really does make people lazy..."

Yui Kikawa looked up in his arms, puzzled: "Hoshino-sensei is like this too?"

"Of course. She's also become very lazy, and as always, she can eat a lot. It's hard not to worry that she'll get as fat as a pig."

"Dump her."

"Don't even think about it!"

“But you’ve dumped other women, so I can’t convince myself to be with you.”

Looking into her clear and determined eyes, Tsukasa Tazaki felt a deep headache coming on: "It's okay, anyway, Yui will always be my older brother!"

"I don't want to be the eldest brother..." Qichuan Wei shrank her neck and buried her face in his chest again. "Why are you so greedy? Isn't one of those good girls enough?"

"Even if there can only be one, it's Hoshino... Ouch, that hurts!"

Kikawa Yui loosened her grip on his waist and bumped her forehead against his chest twice to express her dissatisfaction.

"Big brother, spare me!" Tazaki Tsukasa groped around for a while before she stopped, blushing. They moved closer together and found the most comfortable position for each other.

They didn't say anything more, just quietly embraced each other, enjoying their last day together as a couple.

A gentle breeze lifted the curtains, and the oak leaves rustled softly.

Tsukasa Tazaki glanced out the window. The sun was shining brightly in Chiyoda Ward, making the lush green plants in the garden shimmer and reflect the light.

With such beautiful weather, it's definitely the perfect time to go out on a date.

As he thought about today's itinerary, he poked at Qichuan Yui's lower abdomen with his finger: "Get up quickly, let's go for a walk."

"Where to?" Yui Kichikawa's voice was lazy, with a cute sense of nonchalance.

"How about Jiyugaoka? Tokyo's little Venice, a dessert forest, a kingdom of general stores, the most ideal place to live in the 23 wards... You'd feel like you've wasted your trip to Tokyo if you didn't go and explore it."

"Don't go."

"Are you planning to sleep in your room all day?"

"It's not impossible."

"Kuriyama-kun won't be coming with us today."

Kikawa Yui suddenly opened her eyes and shouted at him, word by word, "I'll change my clothes right now!"

"Minister, you're fierce as a tiger..." Tazaki Tsukasa suppressed a laugh as he watched Kikawa Yui change her clothes.

A white long-sleeved shirt, a black skirt that reaches the knees, with a slightly flared hem—a mature design—paired with white over-the-knee stockings and brown boots.

The overall image is high-end and elegant, yet not too ostentatious, with just the right amount of temperament.

Tsukasa Tazaki rolled out of bed and hugged the blonde girl who was applying lipstick from behind.

“Xiao Wei has grown up.” He lifted the silver necklace around Qi Chuan Wei’s neck with one hand, and slipped the other hand under the hem of her shirt, gently pressing on her slender and firm waist.

Yui Kisaki trembled slightly, then gently placed her hand on the back of Tsukasa Tazaki's hand. Looking at the boy in the mirror, who was half a head taller than her, and at the cheap and ugly chain, she slowly closed her eyes and gently leaned into his arms.

"I'm actually a few months older than you," she asked curiously. "Why do you call Xiaowei so naturally, and it doesn't sound out of place to me?"

"Didn't I already tell you? You are my adopted daughter..."

Kikawa Yui raised her eyebrows slightly.

A warning of iron fist sanctions.

"No..." Tsukasa Tazaki quickly changed his words, "Yui is my virtual girlfriend, the girlfriend I've watched grow up since she was little."
