Ayashiro Noriko looked at Ayashiro Yukio happily, "I have been with Yukio since I graduated from university. Now we have a child, and our family lives a happy life."

"You two are the model couple of our judo club."

Nakamichi Kazushi teased with a smile, his eyes turning to Horikoshi Yumi.

Yumi Horikoshi smiled slightly, with a hint of tenacity and persistence. Although she did not start a family like Noriko Ayashiro, she always persisted in her feelings for Mori.

Despite the passage of time, she still did not give up the obsession in her heart.

"Yumi, you are really stubborn." Nakamichi Kazushi couldn't help but sigh, "I have liked Kogoro for so many years, but I have never heard of you having any other relationship experience."

"Why? Is it wrong for me to like him?"

Horikoshi Yumi smiled gently, with some mischief in her eyes, but more of determination.

Zhongdao Hezhi smiled, his tone somewhat helpless: "Of course it's true, but I have been trying hard to pursue you, haven't you noticed yet?"

Horikoshi Yumi shook her head gently and said jokingly, "You are a straight man. You don't know how to pursue girls at all."

Nakamichi Kazushi smiled helplessly and sighed: "Well, it seems that I have to work harder. By the way, Kogoro, do you remember the days when we entered the police academy together? Now I am a police officer in Chiba Prefecture, and I am still working hard in the Metropolitan Police Department."

Mao Li nodded: "Of course I remember, those were the days when we fought together."

At this time, the fat man wearing glasses, Atsushi Omura, took over the topic with a hint of sarcasm: "Speaking of struggle, I am running a model shop. Although the business is good, to be honest, I am too much of a homebody and have not found my other half yet."

Nakamichi Kazushi smiled and patted Omura Jun on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Omura, you will definitely find the right person."

As they chatted, the topic turned to Xiaolan.

Ayashiro Noriko asked curiously: "Xiaolan, you are so beautiful, do you have a boyfriend? If you get married, Maori will be sad."

Xiaolan blushed immediately and waved her hands to deny it: "That's not true! I'm still young, it's still a long way to go before I get married, and..."

She glanced at Maoli shyly, her eyes full of sweetness.

Everyone was having a great time chatting and time passed by unknowingly.

At this time, Ayashiro Yukio looked around and suggested with a smile: "It's almost time, why don't we go take a hot spring bath together? There aren't many people here anyway, and everyone knows each other well. We can take a mixed bath and experience it for ourselves."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ayashiro Noriko laughed and teased: "You, you really have nothing good in your head! You just want to take advantage! If you want to take a mixed bath, go by yourself, I won't accompany you."

The others also laughed. Nakamichi Kazushi teased, "Xingxiong, you just can't change your old habits. After so many years, you are still so frivolous."

Omura pushed his glasses and joked, "Be careful if Noriko gets really angry. You'll be in big trouble then."

Seeing that everyone was laughing at him, Ayashiro Yukio quickly waved his hands and begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, I admit my mistake! I admit my mistake! But seriously, there are many small pools here where you can actually soak in the hot springs alone. If anyone wants a more private experience, they can choose a pool by themselves."

As he said this, he deliberately cast his gaze towards Horikoshi Yumi, with a hint of joking meaning: "Yumi, why don't you choose a small pond and invite Maori."

"You guy."

Maori cursed with a smile, while Horikoshi Yumi smiled slightly with a look of interest in her eyes.

Seeing this, Ayashiro Yukio laughed, and then took Ayashiro Noriko's hand without hesitation: "Noriko, let's go and find a hot spring pool! Anyway, we are the only ones here, and no one knows what happened today!"

He said this with a hint of meaning, and Ayashiro Noriko scolded him with a smile, but still followed him sweetly.

"Then we'll go too. Let's play table tennis after we finish soaking in the hot springs!"

Omura Jun pulled the unwilling Nakamichi Kazushi out, and Horikoshi Yumi looked up at Maori and whispered, "Maori, do you want to take a hot spring bath together?"

Just like Ayashiro Yukio said, only they themselves know what happened today.

Chapter 178: Little Ai Fainted from the Soak

There was a glimmer of hope and cautious expectation in Yumi Horikoshi's eyes, and she obviously hoped to have such an opportunity to be alone with Maori.

Mao Li looked at her expectant expression, hesitant in his heart, but finally nodded and said softly: "Okay, let's go together."

Seeing this, Xiaolan felt a little jealous.

She originally wanted to go with them, but when she thought about the embarrassing things she and her father had just done in the hot spring, her body had not yet fully recovered, so she really didn't dare to enter the hot spring again.

She bit her lip, revealing a look of reluctance and worry.

Maori noticed Xiaolan's expression, gently touched her head, and whispered: "Don't worry, Horikoshi Yumi is not as close as you and me, nothing will happen."

Yumi Horikoshi also quickly explained with a smile: "Don't worry, Xiaolan, I will wrap myself in a towel. We are just taking a hot spring bath and chatting."

Mao Li glanced at her, and they both showed a tacit understanding expression at the same time.

【Horikoshi Yu's sense of beauty: 80】

Maybe this is a lie told by adults.

Xiaolan looked at Horikoshi Yumi, then at Maori. Although she was still a little uneasy, she finally nodded reluctantly: "Okay... Dad, you have to come back soon."

Maori responded with a smile, then watched Xiaolan slowly walk back to the room to rest, then turned to Horikoshi Yumi and said, "Let's go to the hot spring."

Horikoshi Yumi showed a relaxed smile on her face, nodded, and walked towards the hot spring with Maori.

On the way to the hot spring, Yumi Horikoshi's heartbeat began to accelerate.

Although she was the one who took the initiative to suggest taking a hot spring bath together, when the time really came, she became a little shy.

She glanced at Mao Li secretly and saw that he looked calm and didn't seem to feel uncomfortable with the proposal just now. This made her feel a little relieved, but she still couldn't stop the nervousness in her heart.

She pretended to be nonchalant, gently put her hands behind her back, clasped her fingertips tightly together, but said in a somewhat awkward tone: "Well, well... Maori, I'm going to change my clothes first, and then I'll choose a hot spring to go in. You... you can see if you can be in sync with me and find the hot spring I choose."

After saying that, she walked quickly towards the locker room without waiting for Maori's response.

Her back showed a bit of the shyness and cuteness of a little girl. Her steps were brisk and hurried, like a teased deer, appearing both nervous and expectant.

Maori couldn't help but smile when he saw Yumi Horikoshi's shy look.

After Horikoshi Yumi entered the locker room, she leaned against the door to calm her heartbeat, her cheeks slightly flushed.

She changed into a new bathrobe, put her hair up simply, then looked at herself in the mirror and gave a sweet and nervous smile.

Yumi Horikoshi knew that her behavior just now might be a little childish, but she also hoped that Maori could understand her sincere feelings.

She chose a relatively hidden hot spring pool, which was surrounded by dense bamboo forests and stones, and the rising mist exuded a hint of mystery.

Yumi Horikoshi breathed a sigh of relief, wrapped the bath towel tighter, and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that Maori would really be able to find the pool she had chosen.

……

Maori walked along the path in the hot spring area. The surroundings were quiet and deep, and the steaming hot air made his vision a little blurry.

He frowned slightly, thinking about finding the pond that Horikoshi Yumi had chosen.

However, there were many pools in the hot spring area, each with different environments and temperatures, and he looked around, wondering where Yumi might choose.

After walking for a while, Maori came to a hot spring pool surrounded by bamboo forest.

There was mist here and the pool water was emitting hot steam, seemingly hotter than other places.

Maori hesitated for a moment, thinking that Yumi might like such a quiet and warm place, so he walked in slowly.

However, as soon as he entered the pool, he noticed something strange.

Through the mist, Maori vaguely saw a small figure in the pool. The whole person was almost submerged in the water, with only a small face exposed.

Maori's heart sank suddenly, and he hurriedly walked closer to take a look, only to find that this was not Horikoshi Yumi, but Haibara Ai!

Haibara Ai's face was pale and her eyes were closed. It was obvious that the temperature of the pool was too high and she was about to pass out.

Maori's heart tightened, and he immediately bent down and carefully carried her out of the hot spring.

Her small body was soaked through, and her smooth, white skin looked especially tender in the mist.

Two dots of cherry pink and a small steamed bun underneath, it is extremely attractive.

Mao Li couldn't help but be startled for a moment, but he quickly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and concentrated on waking her up.

He carefully placed Haibara Ai on a chair next to the hot spring and fanned her with his palms in front of her, trying to help her cool down.

"Really? Why would you run into such a hot pool..."

Maori fanned the air and used the push-the-qi technique to circulate qi and blood in Xiao Ai, speaking with some helplessness.

Haibara Ai had been in the Black Organization for too long and was not familiar with these common sense questions, so she passed out all of a sudden.

Maori stretched out his hand and began to move it over Huiyuan Ai's body. Pushing Qi through the palace requires massaging the whole body, and he had no intention of taking advantage of her...

perhaps.

After a while, Haibara Ai finally opened her eyes slightly, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Mao Li breathed a sigh of relief and said to her gently, "I'm glad you woke up. I was really scared just now."

Haibara Ai blinked her eyes, as if she was not fully awake yet. Her gaze slid across Maori's face, with a hint of dependence and relief.

But soon, she noticed Maori's big hands massaging her body, and her cheeks turned red.

"That's enough, thank you."

Haibara Ai shyly got up and tried to find a bath towel to wrap herself.

The next second, Maori took off his bath towel and wrapped it around Haibara Ai.

"Uncle Maori, you you you..."

When Haibara Ai saw what was left after Maori took off the bath towel, she couldn't help but feel dazed.

Being seen...

I was also touched...

how so……

but……

Haibara Ai looked up at Maori and didn't hate him.

"Okay, it's okay to take a look, go back now."

Maori patted Haibara Ai's little head. He had touched her all over anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to take a look at her.

"oh oh……"

With her face flushed, Huihara ran out wrapped in a bath towel that smelled of Maori.

She suddenly thought that the area around her mouth seemed to be what Maori had just covered with the towel...

Thinking of this, she almost fell and staggered out.

Chapter 179: His Souls Are Shattered

Yumi Horikoshi soaked in the hot spring pool. The warm water wrapped around her and relaxed all the muscles in her body.

However, although the heat of the hot spring made her body feel comfortable, her heart gradually became restless because of the waiting.

She looked down at herself in the pool, the mist surrounding her reflected her slightly flushed face.

Time passed little by little. She had been here for a while, but still hadn't seen Maori.

In her heart she began to wonder if Maori had chosen the wrong pool, or if he had no intention of coming at all.

Her thoughts gradually drifted away, and Horikoshi Yumi began to recall the little things she did with Mori in college, the heartbeats and throbbing of youth when they were young.

Even though we meet again now, he is no longer as young as he was before, my feelings for him have not faded.

As she thought about it, a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth involuntarily, but she felt a little disappointed because Maori had not shown up yet.

After waiting for a long time, her body began to get cold, and Yumi Horikoshi finally sighed helplessly.

She decided to wait a little longer. If Maoli still didn't come, she would have to climb out of the pool alone.

However, just as she was about to get up and leave, she suddenly felt a slight ripple in the hot spring water.

The next moment, she felt a pair of strong arms wrapping around her from behind, pulling her gently but firmly back into the pool.

"Yumi, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Maori's low and warm voice sounded in her ears, with a hint of apology and doting.

Yumi Horikoshi was stunned for a moment, then felt her back pressed against Maori's chest, and the temperature of the hot spring water seemed to rise several degrees in an instant.

She froze for a moment, her cheeks quickly turning red.

"Mao, Maori..."
