In crossover anime, who isn't a childhood friend?

Because she was a friend of the boss, the employees below let her in without notifying her.

"Oh, you're here, Yukino. Perfect timing. I'm going out to buy some things and will be right back. Please wait here for a bit."

Are you alone? I'll come with you.

"No need, it's so cold outside, why would you come along?" Yuan Qianye refused directly, but then suddenly had a mischievous thought and pointed to the door of the lounge: "Eri is resting, you can help me take care of her for a while."

"?"

Eriri? Taking a break? Here?

After finishing speaking, Yuan Qianye continued to explain something, ignoring Yukino's questioning gaze.

He waved, put on his coat, said "I'm counting on you" and quickly left.

What is this all about...?

They made plans in advance but then suddenly left. And Eriri, what a coincidence that she came here today too.

It's almost the end of the year, shouldn't she be busy drawing New Year's greetings for her fans...?

Chiya specifically mentioned taking care of Eriri, which means Eriri isn't feeling well right now?

Yukino's concern for her friend outweighed her doubts, and she stopped thinking about it.

She was familiar with Qianye's office; when he first moved here, he had specially invited them all to come and visit.

She knew that it was his private resting place, with a small bookcase, a single bed, a small coffee table and a sofa, nothing that was shameful.

So she simply pushed the door open and went inside.

The moment the door opened, a wave of air that was warmer and even a little hotter than the outside office rushed in.

At the same time, an indescribable, subtle, slightly sweet and fishy smell, a unique odor she had never experienced before, mingled in the air and suddenly entered her nostrils.

The scent was quite strong, with a strange, unsettling aggressiveness that made Yukino feel slightly dizzy for no reason, and her whole body felt a little hot.

All the curtains in the room were drawn, making the room quite dark.

But you can also see that Eriri is sleeping on that single bed, with only her small head showing, her golden hair cascading onto the pillow, and her body curled up in a ball.

As you get closer, you can see more clearly that she is trembling as she lies on the bed, and her breathing is heavy and uneven.

Oh no, could Eriri really be sick?

Qianye is going to buy something; is he going to buy medicine for her?

The thought had just crossed Yukino's mind when she felt a pang of tenderness, but she immediately noticed something else amiss.

A subtle, slightly sticky sensation came from under her feet, causing her to instinctively look down.

Through the faint light filtering through the crack in the door, she saw that the polished floor seemed to reflect an abnormal luster.

That reflection... is that a water stain?

She instinctively turned to the trash can beside the bed, which was stuffed full of crumpled tissues, almost overflowing.

My gaze then drifted to the clothes rack beside the bed, where several garments were haphazardly draped. On the outside was the light-colored coat Eriri had worn that day, followed by a scarf, then knee-high socks, a skirt…

At the very top of the skirt, that's... a safety short?!

And that light-colored lace lingerie casually draped on top, with shockingly little fabric and a daring design?!

Yukino's face flushed red instantly, and she immediately understood everything!

He cursed Yuan Qianye in his heart and immediately turned and left.

Eriri vaguely heard a sound, opened her eyes, saw Yukino's back, and subconsciously said, "Yukino..."

"..." Yukino's steps froze, and she still couldn't leave.

…………

256: And she calls you "Auntie"~ (6k)

"Yukino..."

Eriri's voice, still hoarse from just waking up, ultimately stopped Yukino from rushing out the door.

She couldn't bring herself to pretend she hadn't heard anything and force herself to leave.

She turned around stiffly and met Eriri's deep blue eyes, which were unusually moist due to the lingering emotions.

Yukino looked away somewhat uncomfortably, but eventually walked back to the bedside and stopped a step away from the edge of the bed.

"I'm sorry, Eriri, did I disturb your rest?"

Yukino stammered a bit when she said the word "rest," and Eriri felt a little embarrassed listening to her.

Both of them were so embarrassed that they wished they could disappear into the ground, but they had to pretend that nothing had happened.

That guy...!

Recalling the meaningful smile that Minamoto Chiya gave her as he left, Yukino couldn't help but curse him fiercely in her heart again!

What do you mean by taking care of Eriri!

Eriri is in this state because of you! Why did you have to drag me into this embarrassing situation?!

What a perverted bastard! A noisy toad scurrying about in the pond! And a bedbug filled with a slimy, unidentified substance when you cut it open!

"No! I should be the one apologizing..." Eriri struggled to get up, causing the blanket covering her chest to slip down.

Seeing Yukino's gaze unconsciously turn towards her because of her voice, she quickly and frantically looked away.

Eriri instantly realized what was happening and quickly pulled the blanket back up, wrapping it tightly around her body!

But it was too late.

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Yukino had already clearly seen the densely packed, interwoven, ambiguous dark red marks on Eriri's exposed, delicate skin... "affectionate" marks!

Especially on the most conspicuous area of ​​his chest, various marks of varying depths were clearly visible, like a wild beast marking its territory! It was an unmistakable declaration of the fierce battle that had just taken place!

This gave Yukino no chance to be slow to react; combined with the information she had previously gathered, she understood it instantly!

"Th-that! No! Yukino, let me explain! It's not what you think!"

Eriri was so flustered she was incoherent, her face flushed crimson.

"I came to see Qianye today... no, I really didn't come here just for that! We... we've been so busy lately, we haven't seen each other in a long time, so, so that's why...!"

"Okay, Eriri, I understand."

Yukino took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"You two are now lovers, after all. It's not strange for lovers to do anything as long as it's consensual. You don't need to explain anything to me about that."

The truly awful one is that bastard!

Yukino gritted her teeth.

"You left me with those baffling words, letting me, someone completely unaware of the situation, barge in and put me in this awkward predicament!"

"Um, sorry..." Eriri, like a kitten that had done something wrong, huddled under the covers and apologized softly.

"I already told you, Eriri, you don't need to apologize."

Yukino sighed, avoided the subtle puddle of water, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

After the shock and conversation, her initial panic and shame subsided slightly, and she was able to calm down a bit.

Now, it was Eriri's turn to feel increasingly embarrassed.

She huddled under the covers, her eyes trembling and unfocused: "...Yukino, do you...do you think I'm a very...very...lewd person?"

The conversation started to take a strange turn, but Yukino couldn't avoid giving her a direct answer.

Because she sensed Eriri's unease.

"How could this be..."

Yukino immediately retorted, though she herself felt a flush of heat and a racing heart as she said it, lacking confidence.

"...The love between men and women is a necessary behavior for human reproduction and survival, and it is also an instinctive desire engraved in the genetic chain. As long as it is based on mutual consent and love, it is a very normal thing to have a relationship. You don't need to feel ashamed of it at all."

As she said this, her gaze unconsciously drifted to the corner of the wall, avoiding eye contact with Eriri.

Because once she met her friend's eyes, which still held traces of emotion and moisture, she would uncontrollably combine the surrounding environment and evidence to automatically fill in the blanks in her mind, filling in the intense and intimate "interaction" scene that might have occurred between Eriri and Chiya in this enclosed space before she arrived!

This caused her heart to race, making it impossible for her to maintain rational thinking!

"But...after all, I'm with him...at the company..."

“This is his private lounge, not a public place. As long as it is a private space, does not disturb others, and does not violate public order and good morals, I think there is no problem with it.”

"Yukino... is that really what you think?"

“Of course.” Yukino nodded firmly, even though her own mind was in turmoil.

"Thank you... thank you..." Eriri seemed relieved.

"Alright, stop worrying about this. You look exhausted, so lie down and get some rest. Qianye... he should be back soon."

"Hmm... Qianye... he's too amazing, sometimes he really... doesn't give people any rest at all..."

"About this—!"

Eriri blurted out unconsciously, causing Yukino to immediately close her eyes and stop her.

"You don't need to explain it to me in such detail!"

"Oh...oh..." Lili realized she had misspoke and obediently huddled under the covers, lying down on her side.

After a while, Eriri spoke again in a low voice.

"Yukino..."

"Ok?"

"Actually, I still have to apologize to you..."

"Didn't I already say..."

"No, not for what's happening now."

Eriri interrupted her, her voice trembling slightly.

"What I want to apologize for is... originally... originally, you should be the one standing in my current position."
