However, neither of them realized that Xiaodeng, who had just returned from feeding the penguins, was outside watching Lixi's attempts to "seduce" Banami.

Takamatsu's eyes turned somewhat dark.

Chapter 47 The Arrogant Aunt and the Mature Young Boy

When Takamatsu Akari returned for breakfast after feeding the penguins, Banami and Ritsuki had already pretended to separate.

Although Banami was not hesitant to tell Xiaodeng about his intimate moments with Aunt Riki, Aunt Riki sternly warned him not to reveal their affair to Xiaodeng.

That being said, Aunt Lixi, if you really don't want Sister Xiaodeng to find out, could you please stop teasing my feet under the table?

Banami said the same thing again: Aunt Riki, you're really being a bit selfish.

"Lixi-chan." Just as Lixi was engrossed in teasing the little rascal under the table, she heard Xiaodeng calling her name.

She was so startled that she almost thought the other party had discovered her under-the-table actions.

She quickly pulled her taut thighs back, her face flushed, and asked, "W-what's wrong, Xiaodeng?"

Takamatsu Akari gently raised her head and said, "Tachiki-chan, why are your lips so red?"

That's all because of that little rascal, he keeps trying to kiss me, and he's kissed my lips until they're all swollen.

Banami: ?

After shifting all the blame onto the boy who was much younger than her, Li hope suddenly panicked. She had been a little too carried away during the kiss.

"Ah, it's because... because I added chili to my breakfast, that's why my lips turned red!" Suddenly, Li hope thought of a brilliant excuse.

Gao Songdeng raised her head and looked at Lixi, making Lixi feel a little flustered. But soon, Xiaodeng lowered her head.

"I see."

Li hope couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Sigh, I lied to Xiaodeng, but... it was all for her own good!

Li hope thought to himself.

My words and deeds are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just!

“But I don’t have any chili sauce here,” Little Lamp said in a whisper.

"Huh? What did you just say, Xiaodeng?" Lixi asked, puzzled.

But Xiaodeng gently shook his head, stopped talking, and continued eating breakfast.

Lixi had no doubts, or rather, all she could think about was how to "punish the little rascal".

"Hey, Xiaodeng, do you have any tasks later?" Lixi asked proactively.

"Later, we need to check the penguins' health, especially the newborn chicks," Xiaodeng said.

"Then... do you need my help and Banami's help?" Riki asked as if it were a matter of course.

Xiaodeng gently shook his head: "No, the penguins are not familiar with you yet, especially when they encounter baby penguins, they will have a stress response."

"Oh, I see. That's a real shame. I was hoping to help you out, Xiaodeng." Lixi chuckled dryly.

That's wonderful!

Banai glanced at Aunt Lixi sideways, thinking to herself, "Aunt Lixi, your smile is so fake."

“In that case, I’ll take Banai to Ocean Park today. He’s been staying here with you and hasn’t gone out at all,” Lixi said in as calm a tone as possible.

Take Hanami around for a walk ×

Date with Hana √

No, that's not it. She just wanted to minimize the time that Xiaodeng and Banami spent together. Watching dolphins together, kissing each other, eating ice cream together, and doing everything that couples do on dates were just side effects!

Li hope's abacus beads were practically bouncing onto Gao Songdeng's face.

But when he saw Xiaodeng with her head down and not saying anything, Lixi panicked and asked, "W-what's wrong, Xiaodeng?"

"Okay, Xiaoxi, go play with Lixi-chan first." Finally, Takamatsu Akari said softly.

Lixi clenched his fist slightly under the table, then said, "Ugh, this is such a hassle. I wanted to spend more time with Xiaodeng, but this kid insisted on begging me to take him out to play."

So these kids are really..."

Banai tilted her head slightly and made a question mark.

No, did I say that? He'd rather follow Sister Xiaodeng around and watch penguins than wander around with Aunt Lixi.

Before long, Aunt Lixi was pulled out of the penguin enclosure.

"Little lamp, we'll be back before lunch." Li hope waved goodbye to Gao Songdeng.

Gao Songdeng watched the two leave, then silently put on the penguin costume and walked into the penguin's living area. There, he saw two male penguins fighting over the breeding rights of a female penguin, bumping into each other to show off their healthy bodies.

"Lixi-chan, you're a liar."

Li Xi-chan didn't come to visit me at all; she came to steal Xiao Xi away.

Ultimately, one of the male penguins chased away the other and won the favor of the female penguin.

In the animal kingdom, the struggle for the right to choose a mate and reproduce has always been incredibly cruel.

***

After leaving the penguin enclosure, Shiina Ritsuki was as excited as a little girl, after all, it was her first date ever.

As for the idea that "I did this to protect Xiaodeng," it seemed to have been naturally forgotten by her.

"I'm saying, Banami, you probably haven't been to Ocean Park before, have you?"

"After all, Xiangzi must have been very poor, and he couldn't bring you along."

"Besides, you've never been on a date with someone of the opposite sex at Ocean Park before, have you? Hmph, then I'll be merciful and allow you to accompany me for a stroll here."

Li hope said with a hint of smugness.

Banami tilted her head slightly and said, "Uh, I have been on a date at Ocean Park."

Upon hearing Banami's sincere expression, Riki's face immediately fell. He grabbed Banami by the collar and shouted, "Huh?! You little brat, who are you? Who did you go on a date with at Ocean Park?!"

Banami said, "Little Mutsu-neechan."

When Ruoye Mu brought him here, the two of them spent half a day here. It was their first time visiting Ocean Park, so it could be considered a date.

Hearing that it was someone he knew, Li hope's expression became even more displeased.

Banai blinked and said, "Aunt Lixi, you wouldn't be having your first date at Ocean Park, would you?"

Lixi's old face couldn't hold back anymore, but Banami said very gently, "It's okay, I'll take Aunt Lixi on a good trip today."

Lixi looked a little annoyed. After all, although she was much older than Banami, it seemed that this boy was the one guiding her, whether it was kissing, doing *that* kind of thing, or going on dates. She was the passive one.

It's hard to imagine that I would find a sense of security and guidance from a man so much younger than myself.

"Come on, Aunt Lixi, the dolphin show is over there. If we get close enough, we can even touch the dolphins."

This subtle contrast made Lixi's heart flutter.

Chapter Forty-Eight: Laughing in Anger

When Banai mentioned taking Riki to see the dolphins, Riki deliberately mocked the boy for being childish.

"Only a kid your age would want to see animals. I'm not interested at all; I'm just going with you out of boredom."

Despite saying that, Banami really took her there. When they saw the dolphin spouting water, Riki tugged at the boy's sleeve and shouted, "Banami, did you see that? Did you see that? That white dolphin is spouting water over here!"

Can it really understand human speech? Ugh, it's spraying again!

Banai felt a little dizzy from being pulled, and then she heard the little girl next to her say, "Mommy, the aunt next to us is so noisy, she's making all sorts of noise, she's more like a child than me."

Hearing this, Li hope's cheeks immediately turned red with embarrassment. The little girl's parents quickly apologized to Li hope, who was so ashamed that she quickly pulled Banami away.

As a result, Banami whispered in her ear, "But I think Aunt Riki is very cute like this."

"You're so glib! Don't say things like that to me anymore!" Li hope said, her face flushed, and she even staggered a little as she walked.

But soon, Banami dragged her to touch the dolphins, and Riki reverted to her old ways.

"Ah, Banami, its skin is so smooth, just like your face."

"And...and it sprays water at me, what a little rascal, just like you."

"You're the one who sprayed water at me," Banami thought to herself.

"Ah, it kissed my cheek. What a little pervert, just like you."

Why do you have to belittle me with every word you say? Banami looked at her mother's friend with a sense of helplessness.

However, it must be said that he still thinks Aunt Lixi is a very interesting person, and she looks very cute even at her age.

Finally, the trainer took out his camera and prepared to take pictures of the two people and the dolphin.

"This lady is so young; she already has a son."

As a result, a single comment from the trainer offended Lixi, who was in a good mood, causing her to look rather grumpy when taking photos.

Even as we left the dolphinarium, I was still grumbling.

"Hmph, who's your mother? If I were to give birth to a son like you, I'd want to put him back in my mother's arms."

"I'd rather have a piece of raw char siu than have you."

Aunt Lixi was feeling a bit sour and kept nagging until they reached an empty passage. Then she pouted and looked at the boy, as if she were quite aggrieved.

"Uh, want a kiss?" Banai realized that although Aunt Riki was grumbling, she was indeed hurt by the trainer's unintentional words.

"Who do you think you are?!" Li hope said angrily.

"Then, won't you kiss me?" Banami countered.

"Kiss!" Why shouldn't she kiss him? She was so upset that people misunderstood their relationship.

As a result, after comparing their heights, Lixi squatted down somewhat annoyed and pressed her lips to the boy's.

She didn't know how much time had passed, until her brain was almost oxygen-deprived, before Lixi slowly left, her breathing slightly rapid as she said, "Couldn't you have grown a little taller? Honestly..."

A question mark appeared in Banami's mind. It's not like he can grow taller in a day or two. Aunt Lixi, you're asking too much of him.

However, after the kiss, Aunt Lixi seemed to be in a much better mood. She even took Banami's hand and said, "I'm telling you, even if I go out holding your hand, no one will find it strange, right?"

People would just assume, like that trainer, that it was a young mother bringing her child to Ocean Park, unaware of their true relationship.

Uh, what is the real relationship between the two? Li hope thought to herself, the two have no relationship at all!

After saying that, Riki raised his head and openly led Banami out of the passage and back to Ocean Park.

Sure enough, even though she was holding hands with Banami, no one thought there was anything strange about the pairing.

I even saw another young mother holding her child's hand, and the little boy said, "Wow, this ocean park is so lively! Kassan, I love you the most!"

The young mother smiled happily.

Riki, quite intrigued, nudged Banami with his hip and said, "Hey, Banami, why don't you shout like him too?"

"Auntie Riki, I like you the most." Banami repeated herself like a heartless broken record, satisfying Shiina Riki's slightly outrageous hobby.

"Hmph, too bad I don't like you." Li hope turned her head away proudly and said arrogantly.

"?"

Seeing that Banami looked a little depressed, Riki immediately cheered up and shouted, "Come on, let's go over there, I'll treat you to ice cream."

"Would you like two ice creams?" the ice cream truck attendant asked.

“One three-color scoop of ice cream is enough; only kids would like to eat that,” Li hope said calmly.

Banami thought to himself that such cold food was bad for his stomach. Although he didn't dislike it, he didn't particularly like eating it either.

But since Aunt Lixi said so, he would just have to comply.

The waiter gave a knowing smile and handed the boy a scoop of tricolor ice cream.

A short while later, the two found a chair nearby and sat down. Just as Banami was about to try the three-color ice cream scoop, she noticed a gaze fixed on her.

"Sizzle..."

Shiina Ritsuki's gaze made Hanami too embarrassed to eat.

"Aunt Lixi, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? Go ahead and eat. I didn't forbid you from eating," Li hope said, feigning nonchalance.
