I have bound two systems.

"Actually, the date is secondary. Qianli, you should have something important to tell me."

After ordering coffee, Yukinoshita Haruno's attention refocused on Chisato Suzumiya.

Suzumiya Chisato shrugged.

"It's been discovered."

"Well, I can tell from your current look. Not only was you quite serious, but you didn't come up to me and do anything to me right after you saw me."

"... Not to mention that this is a public place, and I've never done that before."

"Oh, sorry, I guess I remembered it wrong, or maybe it's something else..."

"Okay, that'll do it!"

Chisato Suzumiya hurriedly held her hand under the table to prevent her from saying anything more lewd.

Having achieved her goal, Yukinoshita Haruno narrowed her eyes softly and hummed softly.

"It would be nice to start like this. Now we can get down to business."

"Ah."

Suzumiya Chisato nodded, and chose her words carefully.

"Remember I told you before that Shiyu and Eriri are pregnant?"

"Remember, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have forgiven you for being so cold to me during this period."

Suzumiya Chisato smiled bitterly and continued.

"But in fact, the two of them are not the only ones around me who are pregnant."

The topic began to turn in a direction that Yukinoshita Haruno had not expected.

"What do you mean?"

"Well... In the past six months, there must be a friend next to Yang Noi who has not been seen for a long time."

"Beside me..."

Yukinoshita Haruno was stunned for a moment, but then her sharp mind immediately thought of someone.

"You mean, Jing her..."

Suzumiya Chisato nodded.

He noticed that Yang Nai's palm, which he was holding, was slowly tightening, which was a sign of surprise.

"You guy..."

After the initial surprise, Yang Noi quickly calmed down, and a smile of relief appeared on her face, as if it was natural.

"...I was wondering why I couldn't get her out for a while. It turns out it's because of this..."

Yukinoshita Haruno's ability to accept is much stronger than Suzumiya Chisato had imagined.

Of course, maybe it was also because she realized her own fickle nature early on?

Suzumiya Chisato didn't think too much about it. Now that she had already spoken, and the most important information had been said and if there was no impact, then the details that followed would be of no problem at all.

In the next ten minutes, he briefly explained his experience with Shizuka Hiratsuka and some of the things that happened during that time.

Yukinoshita Haruno listened to all this with incredible interest. When Suzumiya Chisato talked about some of the interactions between them involving Hiratsuka Shizuka, she even interrupted and asked for specific details.

This feeling... is very subtle...

It was as if Yang No himself was just a spectator who was out of touch with the situation.

Until Chisato Suzumiya told her that Shizuka Hiratsuka had moved to Ijichi Hoshika's apartment and was living with her.

"...Wait a minute, you mean, Miss Ijichi took the initiative to invite Jing to her apartment?"

"That's right."

"That is to say, if you go to find Jing now, you will also stay the night at her place?"

"Well, since there are quite a lot of rooms, there won't be any inconvenience."

"That's it..."

"……Any questions?"

Yukinoshita Haruno just looked at Suzumiya Chisato with a smile, shook her head and did not answer.

"No, maybe I'm overthinking it, but I'll still ask just to be sure. Miss Ichichi is still single, right?"

"..."

"Finally you noticed."

Yukinoshita Haruno tilted her head slightly and laughed happily.

"~You are a very contradictory person. When you are sharp, you can even predict the movements of your work opponents several steps ahead and take corresponding measures. But when you are slow, you can't even notice such obvious things."

She sighed softly and continued,

"There's no need to go into details about what happened between you and Shizuka. Miss Ijichi took the initiative to get involved, which led to the current situation, resulting in the three of you living under the same roof on a regular basis. From an outsider's perspective, this is still somewhat weird and inappropriate."

"Sister Xingge, you know the relationship between you and Jing. You have been best friends since childhood. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are family."

"But after all, they can't be considered family, right? But we can't rule out...she really wants to become a family with Jing through some special method."

"…Hey, that joke has gone too far."

Yukinoshita Haruno reached out indifferently.

"I'm just expressing my opinion. Maybe the truth is just as you said. Miss Ijichi just wanted to take care of Jing. But even if something really happened between you and Miss Ijichi during this period, I wouldn't care. After all, I like her very much. She has a similar personality to Jing. She is generous and easy to get along with."

"..."

Chisato Suzumiya couldn't think of how to continue this topic.

Yang Noi pointed out something he had never thought of before. To be honest, he was very confused now.

"Don't talk about this. Now that we've finished talking about it, let's go on a date."

"I have more exciting things to do now than dating."

Suzumiya Chisato stared at her, guessing her intention.

"...You're going to see Jing, right?"

"not bad?"

Yukinoshita Haruno clasped her hands together, trying to act pitiful.

But even if she didn't do this, Chisato Suzumiya would definitely agree.

"No problem...but I have to call Jing first."

"Let me do this kind of thing."

…………

Chapter 88: Heat

In the evening, Chisato Suzumiya was wearing an apron and busy in the kitchen.

Today's dinner is hamburger meat with pork chop and scrambled egg on rice. The protein and fat intake is a bit above the limit, but since it is a recipe specifically proposed by the pregnant lady, it will definitely be met unconditionally.

At this moment in the living room, seeing that it was getting late, Yukinoshita Haruno finally said goodbye with satisfaction.

After seeing her to the door and seeing her wave and walk into the elevator, Shizuka Hiratsuka finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This guy had started teasing his former mentor continuously as soon as he arrived a few hours ago. Because he knew her well, every word he said accurately hit the most shameful spot in Hiratsuka Shizuka's heart.

Of course, if it were just that, it wouldn't be so hard for Shizuka Hiratsuka to handle.

During the one afternoon that Yukinoshita Haruno stayed in this apartment, there were not only teasing directed at her, but also many more hints that could be called explicit.

"Xingge...I don't think so..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka turned around and returned to the apartment, looking at Suzumiya Chisato busy in the kitchen, and whispered to herself.

At least from her current point of view, she didn't see any sparks between these two people, but even if there were some different sparks between them, she didn't think it would have any impact on her.

Rather, if reality really went as Yang No had speculated before, perhaps he would feel a lot more relieved.

Hiratsuka Shizuka's silent gaze and thinking did not last long. After finishing preparing dinner, Suzumiya Chisato walked into the living room with a plate of freshly cut fruits in her arms.

Ichichi Hoshige will be home from get off work for a while, so we have to wait for her to come back before we can prepare dinner.

----

In the days that followed, everything was peaceful.

Ying Lili and Shiyu are staying at home together peacefully, and all the indicators in their monthly pregnancy checkups are normal.

Because they had nothing to do at home all day during pregnancy, they both developed other interests and hobbies.

Eriri bought a book on knitting, and she got the hang of it very quickly. In the later stages of her pregnancy, she knitted all kinds of small clothing items at home, such as baby socks and hats. She even thought about knitting a few sweaters for Chisato Suzumiya, but the latter refused, saying that there would be plenty of opportunities in the future and she should pay more attention to rest at this stage.

As for Shiyu, she is obsessed with ornamental potted plants. The originally empty garden is now filled with various flowers and plants that she purchased through various channels. They are all shaped in a way that suits her aesthetic. The villa she lives in has become more lively and homey because of her actions.

There was no problem on Hiratsuka Shizuka's side either. She and Ijichi Hoshika were getting along very happily.

During this period, Suzumiya Chisato came to spend the night from time to time, but it did not cause any impact on Ijichi Hoshige, and the kind of things that Yukinoshita Haruno had worried about before did not happen.

Of course, that's what it looks like on the surface.

Ichichi Xingge is a normal woman who has stress, emotions, and her own physiological needs.

When she lived alone, it was fine. She would just go home after work, take a shower and eat. Then, if she wasn't too tired in the evening, she would do some yoga or run on the treadmill to stay in shape. If she was too tired that day, she would just rest and sleep. In this way, she maintained a healthy schedule.

But with Shizuka Hiratsuka living in the next room, and Chisato Suzumiya coming to stay overnight from time to time, the situation was completely different.

The first few times when she was woken up by that subtle, erotic voice in the middle of the night, Yidi Chixingge would cover her ears and hypnotize herself as much as possible to fall asleep again quickly, so as not to let such things affect her daily routine and affect her work efficiency the next day.

But gradually, as such things happened more and more, Yidizhi Xingge's thoughts began to change, and her behavior also began to change...

At first I just tried it a little, but soon I couldn't stop.

During this period, she collapsed on the bed several times afterwards, repeatedly blaming herself for her actions with mixed feelings.

But no, after this is over, she will be the same as she was next time.

And she went from being cautious at the beginning to gradually getting used to it.

She began to place tissues at the head of her bed, and she began to imagine what happened between the two of them based on the noises coming from next door.

Of course, most of the imaginary scenes are focused on the opposite sex, Chisato Suzumiya.

She would imagine the broadness of his arms, the weight he would hold on her...

This superficial peace brought about changes over time.

That night, Yidizhi Xingge locked the door, counted the time and leaned against the head of the bed, but the sound she was vaguely expecting did not come as expected tonight.

Tonight, nothing happened.

When Ichichi Xingge woke up the next day, she looked listless and had a rare episode of insomnia.

Shizuka Hiratsuka noticed that she didn't look well and asked worriedly.

Ijichi Hoshika glanced at Suzumiya Chisato who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, laughed it off and said she was dreaming.

Then, the next day, Chisato Suzumiya came here again to spend the night, and Ijichi Hoshige was fully prepared again at night, trying to use the noise next door as a side dish to solve her own problem.

Just like the last time, I waited all night but didn't hear any movement.

At this point, Yidi Chixingge finally figured it out.

In about two months, Ajing will be due to give birth, which is a very important stage. Perhaps the two of them are worried that such things will affect the baby, so they have stopped doing them recently.

After figuring it out, Yidizhi Xingge was shrouded in a feeling of loss and melancholy.

With the Internet and technology so advanced nowadays, she can certainly choose other ways to satisfy her physical needs.

But compared to the live broadcast right next to you, it always feels like something is missing.

Then things took a turn for the worse on the night when Shizuka Hiratsuka was one month away from giving birth.

Fanxing Entertainment Company signed a large cooperation contract, and the entire company went out for a dinner party. Ijichi Hoshika was among them, but when she returned home, Hiratsuka Shizuka and Suzumiya Chisato had already gone to bed.

She consciously tried to make her movements light, but Chisato Suzumiya, who was a light sleeper, still noticed it.

He walked out of the room and smelled the alcohol on Yidizhi Xingge. He took the initiative to go to the kitchen and pour her a glass of boiled water.
