"Oune-chan, you're back!"

"It's time to have dinner!"

From the kitchen, the rich aroma of food wafted over, accompanied by the clear and pleasant voice of a young girl.

Shimizu Ai came out holding a plate of steaming hot, attractively colored tomato beef brisket.

"Be careful, don't spill it."

Behind her was Fujii Itsuki, holding a bowl and a drink.

"The turkey is ready!"

The last girl to appear on stage was wearing heat-resistant gloves and carrying a large, fragrant roast turkey, which she placed in the middle of the dining table.

Turkey may not taste good, but it is an essential Christmas ritual.

"You can wash your hands and eat now, Shimizu-san."

The girl took off her heat-insulating gloves and smiled gently at Shimizu Rin.

"Hmm..." Nodding politely, Qingshui Lin put the canvas bag on the sofa and turned to the bathroom.

Shimizu Rin was not surprised by the appearance of Ogihara Saki.

It's winter vacation now, and it's Christmas Eve, so the other party should come over and spend time with Fujii Itsuki.

Keeping calm, she wiped her wet hands with a towel, pushed the door and left the bathroom.

……

When they walked to the dining table, Fujii Itsuki, Ogiwara Saki, and Shimizu Ai had already taken their seats. Since Shimizu Rin was the last one to choose a seat, she could only sit opposite Fujii Itsuki, the farthest away.

But she didn't think anything of it. After taking the rice handed to her by Ogihara Saki, she raised the cup filled with ice cola and clinked the cups with the three of them.

"Bang——!"

"Merry Christmas!"

The bubbling ice cola was swaying in the glass, and the four people said in unison, each holding the glass and taking a big sip.

"belch--"

Shimizu Ai couldn't even control her loud burping.

Noticing the gazes of the three people, her cute little face blushed slightly.

"Why are you all looking at Ai Yi?"

"This is not something Aiyi can control!"

Unfortunately, her delicate and coquettish excuses not only had no effect, but made the atmosphere even more lively.

"Your mouth is on your body, don't you know to drink slowly?" As the elder sister, Shimizu Rin glanced at her younger sister Shimizu Ai expressionlessly.

"The Coke is very cold, it would be better for you to drink it slowly, Ai-chan..." After unscrewing the cap of the large bottle of Coke, Ogihara Saki poured another glass for Shimizu Ai.

"Okay, let's eat!" The head of the family, Fujii Itsuki, announced the start of the dinner loudly.

Everyone picked up their favorite dishes with chopsticks.

Today, Fujii Itsuki and Ogihara Saki cooked together. Although it was Christmas, in addition to roast turkey and some desserts, the most common dishes were Chinese food that Fujii Itsuki liked, as well as some other classic Japanese dishes such as fried tempura and sushi.

The atmosphere was hot and the air-conditioning was blowing.

Just when Qing Shui Lin thought that the dinner would go on as usual, the kid with double ponytails on her left suddenly said something to the girl with long hair on her right.

"Sister-in-law, please help me get those fried pork chops over there."

……

……

Chapter 333 Jealousy

The warm atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became weird when Shimizu Ai called her "sister-in-law".

In particular, Ogihara Saki didn't seem surprised at all, and she naturally picked up a large piece of fried pork cutlet and put it into Shimizu Ai's bowl.

"Be careful with the heat, Ai-chan."

"Yes, thank you, sister-in-law." Shimizu Ai nodded gratefully.

Noticing these small details, the attentive Fujii Itsuki and Shimizu Rin's eyes fixed.

"Did this kid take the wrong medicine?"

"Why are you calling Saki 'sister-in-law' all of a sudden?"

Fujii Itsuki thought to himself as he chewed the perfectly stewed beef.

As a blood relative and the elder sister of Shimizu Ai who grew up with her, Shimizu Rin sees the essence of things through the phenomenon.

"Could it be that……"

Her eyes flickered slightly, and a bad guess suddenly popped up in her mind.

Especially after seeing Shimizu Ai deliberately looking at her with a provocative look, the thoughts in her mind became even more obvious.

"This brat..."

The carrot between the chopsticks fell into the bowl, and Qing Shuilin's delicate and pretty face, which was as cold as ice, couldn't help but show a hint of solemnity.

"You surrendered to the enemy!"

"Sister-in-law, your cooking is really delicious!"

"Can you come to Fujii's house more often in the future?" Picking up a big bowl of rice, Shimizu Ai took two big mouthfuls of the tomato beef brisket, and spoke vaguely while chewing.

"Thank you for the compliment. Ai-chan's cooking is delicious too." Ogihara Saki replied modestly.

"I should be staying at Fujii's house for the next few days. I can cook for Ai-chan every day and teach her how to cook."

"Really? That's great!"

Shimizu Ai cheered, but Shimizu Rin was worried.

"This brat actually gave up his most precious kitchen..."

"It looks like they're ready to turn against us completely!"

"Sister-in-law, do you want some yogurt?"

"There's yogurt in the refrigerator. I'll get it for you." Putting down her chopsticks, Shimizu Ai said enthusiastically to Ogihara Saki.

"Thank you Ai-chan."

"Get a cup for Shu, I'll just have Coke." Ogihara Saki turned to look at the boy who was picking up food next to her.

"Ai Yi..." Fujii Itsuki glanced unhappily at a petite female kid with twin ponytails.

"You only know how to please your sister-in-law, don't your Onii-chan and Onei-chan need to drink?"

"Go get four cups, one for each person!"

Hearing Fujii Itsuki's harsh reprimand, Shimizu Ai nodded her head reluctantly.

"Oh, I know."

"Why are you so fierce? Really!"

The little plan to exclude Ona-chan failed, so Shimizu Ai had to stand up and walked towards the kitchen in a huff.

As for Qing Shui Lin, although there was no change in her calm expression, she couldn't help but feel a little warmer in her heart.

After spending so much time together day and night, all the efforts made in persuading her have not been in vain.

Fujii Itsuki still cares about her to some extent!

She raised her head and took a deep look at the boy opposite her. The tenderness in Qingshui Rin's beautiful eyes flashed away, and then became cold again.

"We can't let Ai, the traitor, get too arrogant!"

"We need to dampen her spirit!"

……

Carrying four boxes of yogurt back to the living room, Shimizu Ai distributed one box to each person, just like a teacher in a kindergarten distributing milk.

"One box for Onii-chan, one box for sister-in-law, one box for Ai, and the remaining box..."

"Here, here." She didn't even call "Oune-chan" and put it in front of Shimizu Rin with a perfunctory attitude.

"You little brat who doesn't know the difference between elders and juniors!"

Even though Qing Shui Lin's expression was always cold, at this moment, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Thank you..." But instead of getting angry, she thanked her sister Shimizu Ai for the first time.

"Ai, if you like the food cooked by Ogiwara-san, eat more." She deliberately put a piece of green pepper, which Ai Shimizu hated the most since she was a child, into her bowl.

"Green peppers are rich in vitamin C. Eating more is good for your health."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Ogiwara-san."

"Ah?" Looking at the large piece of juicy green pepper in the bowl, Shimizu Ai's face turned bitter.

"You're right. Don't just focus on eating the pork chops. Eat some green peppers to relieve the greasiness." Before Ogiwara Saki could speak, Fujii Itsuki said to Shimizu Ai.

"Okay... okay..." Hiding the green pepper under the rice, Shimizu Ai scooped a full spoonful of tomato and beef brisket and poured it on top, then she hardened her heart and took a big bite.

She quickly chewed the rice soaked in the soup in her mouth. Although the rich sweet and sour taste of the tomato covered some of the spiciness, the unique astringent taste of the green pepper made Shimizu Ai's facial features almost twisted together.

"hateful……"

"Onai-chan must have done this on purpose!"

Picking up the ice cola and drinking it in one gulp, Shimizu Ai glared angrily at her sister Shimizu Rin, who had a calm expression.

"In that case..."

"Then don't blame Ai!"

……

After having a good meal, Ogiwara Saki, the real housewife of the Fujii family, took the initiative to take the dishes and go to the kitchen to wash them.

For the first time ever, the little brat Shimizu Ai did not compete with Ogiwara Saki for the use of the kitchen, but sat on the sofa and secretly prepared something.

She glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and then looked at Fujii Itsuki and Shimizu Rin who were sitting on the sofa playing with their mobile phones. A hint of cunning appeared on Shimizu Ai's cute little face.

"Onii-chan~" she called out sweetly, then crawled over and sat on Fujii Itsuki's lap.

“It’s been a hard day at work…”

"Take a good rest and let Ai Yi feed you some grapes."

She wrapped her two pink and white arms around Fujii Itsuki's neck, and smiled brightly and charmingly.

"……"Looking at the little female ghost in front of him who was clinging to him like a koala, Fujii Itsuki couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"Ai Yi, your green peppers are poisoned, right?"

"Huh?!" Shimizu Ai's face froze, then she pretended nothing happened and continued to maintain her cute smile.

"Onii-chan, what are you talking about?"

"Aiyi doesn't understand..."

She picked up a bunch of washed grapes from the coffee table, picked one and handed it to Fujii Itsuki's lips.

"Eat grapes, ah~"

On the other side of the sofa, noticing Shimizu Ai's unusual behavior, Shimizu Rin frowned and looked in the direction of the voice.

"What on earth does this guy want to do?"

"Isn't she afraid that Ogiwara-san will get jealous?"

Normally when Ogiwara Sakira was at home, Shimizu Rin would fan the flames and let Shimizu Ai take the lead while she would just watch from the sidelines and reap the benefits.

Now the little brat suddenly changed his words and called Ogihara Saki "sister-in-law", which caught her off guard.

"Onii-chan..." Shimizu Ai, who was sitting on the same sofa with Shimizu Rin, only half a meter away, continued to act like a monster.

"Your hands are so beautiful, much bigger than Ai Yi's. They feel so warm when I hold them." She deliberately raised her voice and spoke sweetly.
