I have bound two systems.

"Is my question not specific enough? In other words, do you think I fit your aesthetic taste?"

"... You really have drunk too much, Miss Yukinoshita."

Chisato Suzumiya had heard of the term "suspension bridge effect".

To put it simply, this psychological phenomenon means that when a person crosses a suspension bridge with trepidation, his heartbeat will involuntarily speed up.

If he happens to meet another person at this time, he will mistakenly interpret the accelerated heartbeat caused by this situation as being attracted to the other person, thus developing a feeling of love.

But now, neither of them is in any dangerous situation, and neither of their co-workers has experienced any dangerous incidents.

No matter how you think about it, this situation shouldn't happen.

So there is only one possibility, and that is that Yukinoshita Haruno was testing the situation with an ulterior motive.

As for why she did this, it was because she knew that what I just said was a reflection of herself, so she was thinking of ways to see if she could get some more specific information from me.

"Really? There's no need to be so defensive with me. I'm really only asking this because I'm interested in you, Suzumiya-kun."

Yukinoshita Haruno was very sincere, and she put her hands on her towering chest.

"Since you don't want to answer, Suzumiya-kun, let me demonstrate first. My first impression of you is actually quite good. After all, you are handsome. I also admire your other aspects, such as your appearance and speaking style. So I think it would be nice if we could take this opportunity to become friends."

"..."

Why are things developing in this direction?

Suzumiya Chisato had a headache. His original intention was just to subtly reveal some information about Yukinoshita Haruno so that she would be wary of him and be more cautious with him in the future and not come so close to him without any sense of boundaries like she did today. But why did it seem that everything he did now had the opposite effect?

"Don't be silent, you really like pretty girls, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have made a move on so many people. I'm not bragging, but I think my conditions are upper-middle class in today's society, and I shouldn't be disliked by others."

"...No, no, no, Ms. Yukinoshita, you are too modest in your evaluation of yourself."

"Hey, this is considered a compliment to me, I'm so happy, I'll take this as your answer, Suzumiya-kun!"

Yukinoshita Haruno approached again, and this time her face was extremely close. Suzumiya Chisato had already pressed the back of her head against the wall. If she leaned forward a little, she could easily touch her cheek.

Of course, what is more attractive than her fair cheeks is her crystal pink lips, which are always begging people to kiss them.

"Okay, got it~"

Taking advantage of the moment when he was distracted, Yukinoshita Haruno took out Suzumiya Chisato's cell phone, pressed some buttons and dialed her own cell phone, thus getting the contact information.

She threw the phone back to Chisato Suzumiya.

"Then please take good care of me in the future, Suzumiya-kun. We think we will get along very well with someone as interesting as you."

It was also at this time that the elevator started running again and stopped at the floor they had originally pressed.

The two of them walked out together, and when they were standing in front of their respective entrance doors, she waved her arms vigorously.

"See you tomorrow, bye."

"..."

Suzumiya Chisato didn't want to respond to her, but out of politeness she had to bow her head slightly.

At this time, the door in front of Yukinoshita Haruno was opened first.

"Sister, why are you..."

"Sorry, sorry, I'm not going home tonight. I'll just stay here with you for one night, boo~"

Before entering the door, Yukinoshita Haruno, feeling slightly tipsy due to alcohol, nonchalantly gave Suzumiya Chisato a kiss goodbye.

Yukinoshita Yukino leaned forward to look, and the moment her eyes met Suzumiya Chisato, her expression quickly darkened.

"How is this going……"

"Okay, okay, stop asking so many questions, just go in~"

The elder sister pushed her younger sister into the house, and the corridor became quiet again.

Suzumiya Chisato lightly hit her forehead, sighed silently, and also picked up the handle and walked into the house.

"Sister, what is going on?"

After welcoming her sister into the house, Yukinoshita Yukino crossed her arms and asked her with a serious expression.

"Eh? Didn't I tell you when I walked in just now that I'm having dinner with your teacher Jing tonight? It's a bit late and it's too troublesome to go home, so I'll stay here with you for the whole night. Don't say you're not happy about such a small thing."

As soon as Yukinoshita Haruno entered the room, she threw herself onto the sofa and buried her face in the pillow. She kicked off her slippers without any image and kicked her legs leisurely in the air.

"You know that's not what I'm asking."

Yukinoshita Yukino took a few steps forward and stood in front of Haruno. The ambiguous interaction between her sister and the neighbor next door that she saw when she opened the door just now made her heart unable to calm down until now.

She had witnessed with her own eyes how chaotic the female network around the other person was. Her junior schoolmate Isshi Iroha was also a very vivid negative example. In short, it was definitely not a good thing for a woman to get close to that person.

"How did my sister get involved with that person?"

"Ah, that's what you're talking about."

Yukinoshita Haruno lazily turned over and placed her arm on her forehead.

She glanced at her lovely sister with a playful smile on her face.

"If I say, sister, I feel like I have found my true love... what would you say if I were to give such an answer?"

Yukino was not aroused by her sister's slightly provocative words, and continued to speak calmly.

"Being able to say something like this already proves that my sister doesn't really have such thoughts."

"Oh~ You're so arrogant. It seems like Yukino knows me very well as her elder sister. When she was little, she was just a crybaby who would chase after me and pinch my clothes."

"You can always reminisce about your childhood, but right now, sister, you haven't answered my question."

"Eh - so annoying. Why are you nagging like my mother now? I came here to rest, not to listen to your lectures."

The smile on her face fell, and Yukinoshita Haruno stood up, looking angry, walked to her sister and rubbed her head without any hesitation.

"Listen to me, Yukino-chan. Although I am your dear sister, I am an independent adult. It is normal for me to have secrets that I don't want to tell others. So, don't keep asking me again and again. It's really not cute."

She waved and walked towards the bathroom.

"When I came over after drinking, your first reaction was to bring me yogurt or honey water, and you said it was good for my stomach. Sure enough, the caring little cutie in my memory is gone forever."

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino watched her sister walk into the bathroom.

In the end, she still didn't know why her sister showed such an intimate posture to her neighbor, and she was easily fooled.

"Hey Yukino, can you help me get a set of your pajamas and leave them outside, please~"

Yang Nai's very energetic voice came from the bathroom.

"call……"

Yukinoshita Yukino closed her eyes, shook her head and sighed because of the headache.

Today is Friday and she doesn't have to go to school tomorrow. She had planned to make a cup of hot milk tonight and finish reading the book "Foolish Love" while leaning on the sofa. But now due to the arrival of her sister, this plan will undoubtedly be postponed.

"I'm back... um..."

Chisato Suzumiya walked into the house with a tired body. When she stepped into the entrance hall and was subconsciously saying those four words, the next moment her speech function was blocked and she stood there in a daze.

The person in front of me is Kasumigaoka Utaha, who is wearing a dark red silk nightgown. Her hair is no longer casually draped over her shoulders, but is now simply tied up with a hair tie and let down along her left shoulder to her chest. Her girlish look has greatly faded, and she looks more and more like a young woman. She is kneeling in front of the entrance door, appearing calm and unperturbed.

"Husband, you are back."

Facing Suzumiya Chisato's surprised and uneasy gaze, Kasumigaoka Utaha stretched out her hands in front of her and touched the floor, and said these words very calmly, so naturally that the scene before her seemed as if it had been experienced countless times in an ordinary daily life.

"..."

Suzumiya Chisato, whose head was hit hard by something invisible, raised her eyes, silently squatted down to make her eyes level with the other person, and reached out her hand to touch her forehead.

"Shiyu, do you have a fever?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled silently and did not respond. Instead, she considerately took the slippers next to her and leaned over to take off Suzumiya Chisato's shoes.

This action really frightened Suzumiya Chisato. He panicked and grabbed Shiyu's wrist.

"Shiyu, don't scare me!"

At this point, this man's unromantic behavior finally made it impossible for Kasumigaoka Utaha to continue to maintain the mentality of a gentle and virtuous housewife.

She held her forehead and sighed.

"Really? I finally got into the mood to please you, but I didn't expect you to be so uncooperative. It's really meaningless."

"Uh, that's meaningless... Are you trying to please me like this?"

"Well, I thought life couldn't always remain the same, so I thought of giving you a surprise."

"So this situation can be considered role-playing in a sense. As for the theme, it's the husband coming home from work and the wife staying at home to welcome him?"

"Yes, I hope that next time we encounter a similar situation, you can be a little more interesting. I was so excited that I waited for you at the entrance for so long."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded and stretched out her hand again. This time, Suzumiya Chisato did not give in and let her take off her shoes. She then stood up and took her schoolbag and coat.

Suzumiya Chisato looked at Shiyu's disappointed expression, feeling a little sorry, and reached out to hold her slender waist.

"Sorry, I will pay attention next time. I was really surprised just now and didn't react. I thought I pushed open this door and traveled through time and space directly to our future married life."

When Kasumigaoka Utaha heard his half-joking explanation, she inexplicably understood something else.

"But judging from your performance just now, Mr. Suzumiya, you don't seem to be looking forward to our future married life with joy, but rather a hint of fear."

"What are you talking about? Don't you know why I reacted like that? I have to savor every day I spend with Shiyu. I don't want time to fast forward so much all at once."

"That's a nice thing to say. If you really thought that, you wouldn't leave me alone to flirt with other girls. You can only see me at night. Don't you think it's pathetic? It's like a wife who knows her husband is having an affair but has no choice but to stay at home and cry all day."

"It's not that serious. We can't see each other during the day because we are not in the same school. I need to work after school, and you have to balance your studies and light novel career. This situation won't last long. After we go to college, we will spend more time together."

That's true, there is nothing that can make Kasumigaoka Utaha continue to refute.

However, this taste is...

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the uniform jacket that had just been taken off Suzumiya Chisato and hung up after she smoothed out the wrinkles. She leaned close to it and smelled it with great interest. Then she lowered her eyes slightly, turned around and looked at Suzumiya Chisato meaningfully.

"what happened?"

Chisato Suzumiya expressed confusion at her actions.

"Hoo-Eri-ri!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha had no intention of replying to him. Instead, she took a deep breath and shouted towards the inner room in a louder voice.

"What are you doing? I'm giving Ya Ya a bath."

"Don't wash it, come here first."

"that……"

When Suzumiya Chisato saw her like this and was about to say something, Kasumigaoka Utaha approached him, raised her head and sniffed his chest and neck.

"Shiyu, this is itchy..."

"do not move."

At this moment, Ying Lili jogged to the entrance with water stains on her hands.

"What's up...Ah, Chisato, you're back, a little earlier than usual."

"kindness……"

"Okay, stop saying those meaningless words and come over here."

"What on earth do you want me to do..."

Although Eriri was complaining, she still followed the other party's instructions and stood at the entrance. She moved closer to the uniform jacket that Kasumigaoka Utaha picked up, then lowered her head and moved closer.

After sniffing gently with her cute little nose, she frowned in confusion, then revealed the same intriguing eyes as Kasumigaoka. After looking at her, they both looked at him again at the same time.

"It's confirmed. I didn't smell it wrong."

Kasumigaoka Utaha hung up the clothes again and turned around again, looking a little unhappy.

Eriri observed Chisato Suzumiya's expression and confirmed that it would be okay if she told her the actual situation. She then directly told her the conclusion they had reached just now.

"It's indeed a perfume I've never smelled before. It's soft and definitely a women's scent. In addition, there's also a hint of alcohol, a light malt scent, so it must be beer."
