I have bound two systems.

"what……"

Yamada Ryo's chopsticks were suspended in the air, staring at the freshly grilled high-quality beef that had fallen on the table, his eyes full of regret.

Chisato Suzumiya was distracted by this little accident and failed to observe Kasumigaoka Utaha's reaction, so she let her take the juice.

"Don't eat the ones that fell on the table and aren't clean. There's still a lot left. If you say it's not enough, we can order more."

Chisato Suzumiya wiped the table clean with a tissue.

Yamada Ryo was a little reluctant, but still stared at him and nodded.

"Let's take this opportunity to announce something."

Kasumigaoka Utaha spoke suddenly with a rare bright smile on her face.

Everyone else looked at her.

Suzumiya Chisato was a little nervous for a moment. After all, the two of them were under the table, and their feet were entangled with each other.

what……

Suzumiya Chisato silently thought that something was wrong.

Shiyu also started to pull his socks off with her toes.

"what's up?"

Eriri asked, standing by the window.

“It’s a good thing for me.”

Shiyu sat straight, and did not whet everyone's appetite.

"My novel was selected as the work of the year in 'This Light Novel is Amazing'."

She told the good news in a very calm tone, but the expression on her face showed undisguised joy.

"What's the work of the year?"

Kita Ikuyo was a little slow to react.

Ying Lili was stunned for a moment, then gave a rough explanation.

"It is a very famous award in the field of light novels. Being selected not only represents the strength of the light novel author, but also shows how popular the author is among readers. It is a great honor."

Although she usually quarrels with Kasumigaoka Utaha, Eriri is indeed happy for her achievements.

"Yeah, that's really amazing."

Ijichi Hoshika and others were happy for Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Such great news, let's toast together."

Chisato Suzumiya also gave suggestions with a smile on her face, but was rejected by Utaha Kasumigaoka who shook her head.

She picked up her cell phone and raised it.

"Let's clink glasses for a moment. I have to go out and call the editor back. Some things can't be explained clearly via text."

The others nodded in understanding. Suzumiya Chisato didn't think anything of it at first, but she soon realized what was going on.

Shiyu has taken off all her socks herself. Wouldn't she be completely exposed if she leaves the table now?

Or does she think that no one else will notice so she thinks it's okay?

But something so obvious would never be ignored!

I thought of other excuses to fool people, like it was too hot under the table so I took off my socks or something...

It seems to make sense, but it's a bit indecent. It's hard to imagine that someone like Shiyu would be willing to use such an excuse to get away with it. However, it seems that there is no other excuse to fool people except this one.

"Don't wait for me. I think it will take some time."

As Kasumigaoka finished her words and stood up from the table, Suzumiya Chisato's eyes slowly widened and she became increasingly terrified.

The reason was that when Kasumigaoka Utaha left the table, the pair of bare feet that Suzumiya Chisato thought had been flirting with him were still entangled with him.

Shiyu's socks were properly on and she left the private room with a normal look on her face.

“It tastes great.”

Yamada Ryo blew on the barbecue in the bowl, then ate it in one bite with great satisfaction.

“It’s really good.”

Ichichi Xingge ate the mushrooms she had grilled herself in small bites.

"...!!!"

Chisato Suzumiya lowered her head while holding the chopsticks, sweat began to form on her forehead, and she dared not move.

The pair of tender and warm little feet under the table have turned from passive to active. They no longer need his control and wrap themselves around him, reaching in through his trouser legs and using the soft flesh on the toes to slide back and forth on the skin of his calves.

…………

Chapter 92: Dirty Bastard

Suzumiya Chisato watched Kasumigaoka Utaha leave.

He turned his attention back to the dining table.

The grilled meat on the iron plate sizzles under the high temperature and the fat emits an excellent aroma.

But he had no appetite for delicious food at the moment.

Not only did I not have an appetite, I even felt a little terrified.

He thought he was flirting with his girlfriend under the table, so he was having a lot of fun at that time.

But now he suddenly realized that it was not the case at all, and everything was just his preconceived self-righteousness.

Shiyu never stretched out her feet from beginning to end.

Thinking back carefully, the biting of her lower lip at the beginning seemed to be a very common action for her, which did not mean anything. Why did she...

No! Now is not the time to think about this kind of thing!

The most important thing now is...

Now under the table, stretching out his legs and touching his calves with his bare feet, who is that person?

While picking up the meat, Chisato Suzumiya secretly observed the other people sitting at the table.

Fortunately, the target range was small. Apart from himself, the only people sitting at the table with their legs stretched under it were Ijichi Hoshika and Yamada Ryo.

Therefore, after understanding the current situation, it is not particularly difficult to know the truth.

Chisato Suzumiya's feet under the table began to move, pressing down the foot that was entangled with her, pressing her toes against the sole of her foot, and began to exert force.

Yijizhi Xingge blew on the vegetables she had roasted, still dipping them in soy sauce and blowing gently, eating them very naturally, taking a sip of juice and a mouthful of vegetables.

As for Yamada Ryo...the moment when Suzumiya Chisato suddenly made that move, she choked, took out a tissue to cover her mouth and turned her head to the side.

It’s you!!!

The truth is about to come out.

Comparing the reactions of the two of them, it is easy to draw a conclusion. Even a child in this situation would understand that Yamada Ryo is the culprit.

But why?

When she learned that the person who had been arguing with her under the table for a long time was Yamada Ryo, Suzumiya Chisato felt a little confused.

Even if she was a weirdo whose daily behavior was unpredictable, she was a girl before this. She should have understood what such behavior meant, but even so, she still did it. Why?

Chisato Suzumiya was confused and couldn't come to any conclusion.

At this moment, something even more nervous happened.

"Okay, you guys, if you want to take pictures, take your time after you finish eating. There's a lot of barbecue on the grill that will get old if you don't eat it."

Ijichi Hoshika turned around and shouted to Hongxia, Eriri and others on the other side.

"makes sense."

“Then let’s shoot it later.”

"There are still several days left, so there's no rush."

Several girls near the window followed suit and came over obediently.

I sat at the table, supporting my body and preparing to slowly put my feet in.

At this moment, the alarm bells in Chisato Suzumiya's heart rang loudly and her heart was pounding.

worse.

After Eriri and the others sat down, the space under the table became smaller, and there was a high chance that everyone's feet would touch each other.

If he found out about his and Liang's current situation...

The scene was so beautiful that Chisato Suzumiya couldn't even imagine it.

In short, he can't be caught by them on the spot. Even if something happens, he will have to deal with it privately later.

However, he thought so, and after making the decision, he began to pull his legs back.

But Yamada Ryo had other ideas.

Her two little feet were tightly wrapped around Suzumiya Chisato, as if they had tied a knot around his ankles, and Suzumiya Chisato couldn't separate from her no matter what.

Stupid Liang, what do you want to do!

If he used brute force, he could easily break free.

But in that case, his actions would definitely be extremely obvious and there was a possibility that he would be discovered by others.

Fortunately, after everyone sat down, the situation that Chisato Suzumiya worried about did not occur.

No one noticed what he and Yamada Ryo were doing under the table.

The barbecue was delicious and everyone was hungry after playing all day, so their attention was almost entirely on the food.

This made Chisato Suzumiya feel a little relieved, but he didn't completely relax.

He picked up meat for other people several times during the process. When it was Yamada Ryo's turn, he said something like "It's okay" but his eyes were fixed on her.

I don't know if she did it on purpose or she simply didn't realize the meaning of "stop fooling around" that Chisato Suzumiya was trying hard to convey to her.

After thanking him, she continued eating without any reaction, and she didn't seem to want to take her feet under the table. She just stayed with him quietly, as intimate as a lover.

As soon as she noticed that Suzumiya Chisato was about to pull back, she suddenly clamped down tightly.

Later, Chisato Suzumiya became numb.

Twenty minutes later, Kasumigaoka Utaha came back from the phone with sake she got from the front desk in her hand. It seemed that she was really planning to celebrate.

Seeing her smiling face and in a very good mood, everyone said words of congratulations, raised their glasses to toast together, and the topic began to revolve around her.

Ying Lili, who seemed to be at odds with her, did not choose to harm her at this time.

There was a large bottle of sake, and Ijichi Hoshika, Suzumiya Chisato, and Kasumigaoka Utaha drank most of it. The remaining little was given to the others to taste lightly and stop when they had enough, after all, they were not used to drinking sake.

The scene was full of joy until the end.

Before I knew it, it was dark outside.

There was a TV in the private room, and they turned it on halfway through the meal while watching local Hokkaido programs.

Talking about some of the local traditional characteristics in winter is not boring and can be educational. But now we are full and it is not too early, so we really have to go back to the hotel, after all, there are other activities tomorrow.

Yamada Ryo, who had been clinging tightly to Suzumiya Chisato, finally pulled his feet out at this moment.

Ichichi Hongxia, who was beside her, accidentally noticed something wrong with her friend.

"Liang, why did you take off your socks?"

"..."

Chisato Suzumiya, who had already stood up, wiped her hands with a wet towel. She paused when she heard this, but still stood by the window and stretched silently.

"This..."

Yamada Ryo slowly reached in and fumbled for a while before taking out his socks. Then he sat there and started putting them on.

"Can't you take off your socks when you're baking in the table oven?"

She asked back.
