My love index is at its maximum.

There was a noticeable pause on the other end of the microphone before Kurisu Kirikawa's strange voice finally rang out.

“You used to call me Chestnut, but now you suddenly call me ‘Auntie,’ which has completely caught me off guard.”

"Since she's with Tazaki, she's naturally a generation younger than you, so isn't it normal for her to call you 'Auntie'?"

"Look at how smug you are..."

Kurisu muttered sourly before her tone became more formal.

"Xiaowei suddenly said she's going to a sanatorium tomorrow. What triggered her?"

“I’m not quite sure about that,” Kana Shimamoto asked in an extremely casual tone. “You called me to ask me to keep an eye on her?”

"Of course, you know Xiaowei's personality. If she gets carried away, she can easily make a decision without thinking. Keep an eye on her and try to persuade her if necessary."

"Leave it to me."

As she hung up the phone, Shimamoto Kana shook her head in front of the mirror for a while, checking her hairstyle. The lingering feeling in her body finally subsided, replaced by a surge of joy. She stretched and told herself that she couldn't get carried away yet and that she still had to work hard tomorrow.

So she looked at herself in the mirror and gave herself an encouraging smile.

Tomorrow has come...

I'll find a way to strip Hanami naked and have her with Tazaki... I don't believe that once we're lying together, she'll still be so arrogant, and there will be no longer any distinction between our statuses.

As for Xiao Wei...

Ok.

Let her be a loser for a day tomorrow, and then we can teach her a lesson slowly the day after tomorrow when we have some free time.

Come on!

Kana Tazaki, you can do it!

……

After leaving the bathroom, they went down to the living room on the first floor, where the three of them sat around the table eating ramen, the air filled with the rich aroma of broth.

Kana Shimamoto took a deep breath: "Wow, it smells so good."

The three of them turned to look.

She had just finished showering, and her waist-cinching bathrobe clung to her voluptuous figure, parting at the knees to reveal her smooth, delicate calves. Her bare feet, without even slippers, made her appear even more petite and adorable.

Wow!

Shiori Ninomiya exclaimed exaggeratedly, her expression full of envy.

"Shimamoto-sensei is so beautiful!"

She spoke with envy, but beneath her long eyelashes, the little cutie's eyes shone with a jewel-like brilliance, brimming with an indomitable fighting spirit.

Kana Shimamoto walked over and gently patted her head: "Shiori is cute too."

"Come sit here and try the ramen that Shiori cooked herself!"

Shiori Ninomiya scooped out a bowl of ramen and placed it in front of her.

"Then I won't be polite." Shimamoto Kana smiled gently, first brushing her long hair behind her ears, then scooping up a spoonful of soup and putting it in her mouth. The thick soup slid down her throat, the movement of her throat bones appearing very charming.

Seeing Tsukasa Tazaki slurping half of his ramen, he forgot to continue slurping.

After taking a sip of soup, Kana Shimamoto wiped her mouth with a napkin and said elegantly, "It's an unforgettable taste."

Under the table, Shiori Ninomiya quietly reached out her small hand, blushing, and ran her palm over Kana Shimamoto's soft, plump thigh, carefully savoring the texture.

Kiki just likes this plump, fleshy feel?

It's very good...

Will Shiori eat more meat in the future?

If I grow up to be as gentle, skillful, and beautiful as Ms. Shimamoto...

While touching herself, Shiori Ninomiya pondered what her future would be like, her expression somewhat blank.

As if completely oblivious to anything amiss, Shimamoto Kana looked at Shiori's excited expression, like an elementary school student anticipating a trip, and said with a smile, "Shiori is so cute."

"what?"

Shiori Ninomiya looked up and said instinctively, "Shiori will grow up."

Kana Shimamoto gave her a knowing look and said, "Oh, you've grown up."

"Once you grow up, you won't be a child anymore!" Shiori Ninomiya slurped up a big mouthful of ramen and muttered, "By then, I'll be a little smarter and won't get fooled anymore!"

After saying that, she raised her head and glared at Tsukasa Tazaki.

"Hey, hey," Tsukasa Tazaki said innocently, "I didn't lie to you."

"Humph!"

Ninomiya Shiori threw a tantrum, tossing her little head.

“Minister,” Tsukasa Tazaki turned his head to look at Sakura Kuriyama, who was sipping her soup, “what just happened?”

Kuriyama Sakura, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head and responded to him with a cold gaze that even Shimamoto Kana felt chilled, "Just now, Shiori went upstairs to look for you."

"……Um?"

Tsukasa Tazaki tilted his head back, as if calculating how much material was used to build the ceiling above him, pretending not to hear what he said.

The window was half open, and the wind blew in casually, rustling his bangs.

“Alright, don’t blame him,” Shimamoto Kana said, half of her body leaning back in the chair, her large bathrobe spread out. “I was the one who asked him to come in. If you have any grievances, take them out on me.”

Shiori Ninomiya turned around and glanced at her beautiful hair hanging down from the back of the chair.

"Ms. Shimamoto ate it!" she protested, pouting.

“That’s an advantage of being an adult,” Shimamoto Kana patted her shoulder reassuringly. “After all, that guy is a complete older man enthusiast.”

At this moment, Tsukasa Tazaki finished counting the materials used for the ceiling and lowered his head.

Looking at the little cutie's puffed-up cheeks, he said as if he was going to throw caution to the wind, "From the perspective of temptation alone, older sisters are indeed older than high school girls."

The voice just fell.

His left and right feet were stepped on.

Needless to say, the two girls each kicked him, causing him so much pain that he almost jumped out of his seat.

"And the key point is," Tsukasa Tazaki said, enduring the pain and giving up, "that a quiet and dignified woman like Ms. Shimamoto can be so captivating when she displays such passionate and wildly chaotic behavior at crucial moments."

"what?"

Shiori Ninomiya instantly turned to look at Kana Shimamoto, her large eyes filled with endless youthful confusion.

The naive country girl really didn't understand this.

and so……

How crazy and confused is Shimamoto-sensei?

"Tazaki!"

Kana Shimamoto blushed and scolded him.

How she plays in private is a private matter. If we were to expose this other side of her, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

Kuriyama Sakura cursed "pervert" and turned her head away, her face flushed.

"Hey, tell me about it..." Shiori Ninomiya leaned closer with a curious look, grabbing Kana Shimamoto's arm and refusing to let go. "As her teacher, you must teach your students this kind of thing!"

"Too close..."

Kana Shimamoto covered her chest with one hand and turned her body slightly to the side.

"Hurry up, or Shiori won't be polite!" Ninomiya Shiori's gaze gradually became aggressive as she scanned Shiori's body from head to toe, her voice becoming thick and sticky. "Hehe, just like how Sakura treated me back then, I'm going to treat Shimamoto-sensei the same way now."

Kana Shimamoto asked curiously, "How did she treat you?"

Before Shiori Ninomiya could even speak, Sakura Kuriyama rushed over and grabbed her wrist: "Alright, it's late, we need to go to sleep, goodbye!"

In that instant, Tsukasa Tazaki seemed to see the air around the two beautiful girls filled with pink bubbles.

He couldn't help but clasp his hands together and ask loudly, "Is what I'm about to see something I can watch?"

Under the scumbag's ambiguous gaze, Kuriyama Sakura turned her head and smiled gloatingly: "Enjoy yourself tonight, but don't expect the club president to plead for you tomorrow!"

"Uh, what?"

A sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in Tsukasa Tazaki's heart.

But Kuriyama Sakura didn't answer him. Instead, she grabbed Ninomiya Shiori and ran back to her room.

"What day is tomorrow?" Tsukasa Tazaki scratched his head in confusion.

"I don't know." Shimamoto Kana shook her head, a gentle smile on her face. "But it's okay. Even if it's the end of the world, your wife will stand by your side."

Tazaki Tsukasa felt a warmth in his heart: "Long live the wife!"

Regardless of the future, he had to show his wife what he was capable of tonight... He reminded himself, stood up, bent down, and picked up Shimamoto Kana.

Kana Shimamoto looked into his eyes, and he looked into hers.

He hugged her waist and legs, then lowered his head to kiss her lips.

"Go back to your room..." Shimamoto Kana whispered, her shoulders trembling slightly before she closed her eyes, feeling utterly powerless.

Her lips pressed together, the light casting the shadow of her eyelashes onto her oval cheeks, which trembled slightly.

After the kiss ended, Tsukasa Tazaki carried her back to the second floor, and without turning on the lights, went straight to the soft bed.

The bed sheets were spotless and smelled fresh.

In the dimly lit room, Shimamoto Kana's snow-white body danced like a butterfly in the darkness, intoxicated by the overwhelming pleasure. Her body was glistening with sweat, her hair disheveled, making her alluringly beautiful.

……

At dawn the next day, Tsukasa Tazaki had a strange dream.

He dreamt that Hoshino Hanami, Kikawa Yui, and Tono Sachiko suddenly appeared, and they all spent a happy Valentine's Day together...

After waking up, he recalled the contents of his dream.

It seems... something extraordinary happened in between, but he has no recollection of it.
