Green plums cannot become lovers.

An and Asuka sat down at the dining table, looked at the dishes on the table, and were stunned for a moment.

Today's dishes are much more varied than usual.

Dinner usually consists of three dishes and a soup, but today it doubled—six dishes and a soup, plus several side dishes. There was his favorite fried pork chop, tender stewed beef, fresh sashimi, and a bowl of soup that looked very nourishing.

"Is today...something special?"

"It's not a special day," Shizuka said with a gentle smile. "It's just a welcome-back dinner. You must be tired after being away for several days, so eat something nourishing."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Marina nodded vigorously. "Eat more, eat more!"

Xiao Ai smiled and put some food on his plate: "Feiniao, this beef is super delicious!"

An and Asuka were touched by their enthusiasm, but didn't think much of it.

"Thank you."

The three girls also picked up their chopsticks, but they didn't eat much; they spent most of their time watching him.

An and Asuka would occasionally look up and meet their gazes, and something always felt off.

Aren't you going to eat?

"Eat, eat!" Marina quickly lowered her head and started eating.

Xiao Ai also lowered her head.

Shizuka continued eating elegantly, but a faint smile played at the corners of her lips.

An and Asuka shook their heads, not thinking much of it, and continued eating.

After dinner, An and Feiniao watched TV in the living room for a while, processed a few messages, and then got up to go back to their room to rest.

"I'm going to sleep now, you guys should get some rest too."

"Mmm, goodnight~"

Marina waved.

"Goodnight, Flying Bird~" Xiao Ai said with a smile.

Shizuka nodded as well: "Good night."

Everything is normal.

An and Asuka returned to their room, closed the door, and lay down on the bed.

These past few days have been quite tiring. Although the research process was enjoyable, the constant travel has taken a toll on my energy.

He closed his eyes and soon began to feel drowsy.

After an unknown amount of time, the door was gently pushed open.

An and Asuka opened their eyes groggily and saw three figures filing in.

Marina, Ai, Shizuka.

They came in quietly in their pajamas, and then all looked at him.

An and Asuka's sleepiness vanished instantly.

"What...what are you going to do?"

He sat up and looked at them warily.

The three girls exchanged glances, and then—

At the same time, he smiled.

An and Asuka had seen that smile before. It was the slightly mischievous smile that Shizuka would occasionally show.

But now, this smile appears on the faces of three people at the same time.

“Asuka.” Marina spoke first, her voice several degrees softer than usual, “You’ve been gone for several days.”

"Y-yes," An and Asuka stepped back. "What's wrong?"

“We all miss you so much,” Xiao Ai replied, her eyes sparkling. “We really, really miss you.”

"So..." Shizuka finally spoke, her tone gentle yet leaving no room for argument, "You're not going anywhere tonight."

An and the flying bird's backs pressed against the wall.

He glanced at the three girls, who were approaching step by step, their smiles growing wider.

"Wait, wait!" he quickly reached out his hand. "Calm down! Listen to me!"

"What did you say?" Marina tilted her head.

"Well, that..." An and Asuka's minds raced, "I... I just got back, I'm so tired..."

"It's alright," Shizuka Kuze said indifferently. "We'll take care of you."

"And!" An and Asuka continued to struggle, "We have things to do tomorrow!"

"We'll talk about tomorrow's problems tomorrow," Hoshino Ai blinked.

The three girls had already arrived at the bedside.

As An and Asuka looked at them, they suddenly remembered the table full of "nutritional supplements" at dinner.

And then there's Shizuka's line, "Let's nourish our bodies first."

So the plan started back then?!

"Shizuka!" He looked at the usually calmest girl. "You...you..."

Shizuka smiled slightly.

"Birds".

"Ok?"

Do you know?

"Know what?"

“We’re usually very well-behaved, but sometimes we want to be a little willful.”

She paused.

"And you really were gone for several days."

An and Asuka opened their mouths, but couldn't say a word.

Marina and Ai were already sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at him from the left and right.

"Birds".

"Asuka-kun." (This appears to be a fragment of a sentence or phrase, possibly a typo or incomplete text. A more accurate translation would require the full context.)

Both of them had soft voices, but their eyes were surprisingly bright.

An and Asuka looked at them, then at Shizuka standing at the foot of the bed, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

"You, you all listen to what I have to say..."

"say what?"

"that is......"

Before he could finish speaking, Marina pounced on him.

"do not care!"

?Ershanlin?Sijiu?iI??п似_QU-?N Xiao Ai followed closely behind.

Shizuka gently closed the door.

The sounds of peace and birdsong could be heard from the room.

"Wait, wait! Marina, don't take my clothes off!"

"Hehe~"

"Xiao Ai! Where are you touching?!"

"Just a quick look at Er II Er Yi San Lin Ba Xia~"

"Shizuka! You're the calmest one! You need to do something about them!"

Shizuka smiled slightly.

"Birds".

"Ok?"

"Be good tonight."

Looking at her smile, An and Asuka suddenly realized that they might really be going to die here.

"Do not--!"

-

the next morning.

An and Asuka lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Marina was sleeping soundly to his left. Ai was curled up to his right, a smile playing on her lips. Shizuka lay beside her, her breathing steady, her face serene.

He moved around, his whole body aching.

last night

Forget it, I don't want to.

He closed his eyes and sighed.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, casting golden streaks on the floor.

This home is becoming more and more "dangerous".

Volume 1: Chapter 231 I Like You!

Although they were very tired, An and Asuka still struggled to get out of bed.

His body felt like it had been run over by a truck; every muscle was protesting silently. He clutched his back and slowly made his way to the bathroom, splashing cold water on his face before he could barely regain his senses.

I looked at myself in the mirror and my complexion did look a bit off.

Dark circles under his eyes, slightly pale lips, and faint red marks on his neck—he pulled up his collar to cover those marks.

After washing up and changing into clean clothes, he left the room.

In the living room, the three girls were already awake. Marina was sitting on the sofa, holding a teacup in her hand. When she saw him come out, she immediately gave him a bright smile.

"Good morning, Asuka~"

That smile was almost too bright.

Anhe Feibiao glanced at her, but didn't reply, and silently walked towards the entrance.

"Asuka, you're still very weak, so be careful."

Marina's voice came from behind, filled with undisguised schadenfreude.

An and Asuka paused for a moment.

He turned his head and looked at Marina.

The guy was looking at him with a smirk, his eyes clearly saying, "Did you have fun last night?"

His two fists hardened slightly.

This is the guy; he was the craziest yesterday.

He'll deal with her properly when he gets back.

"I'm leaving," he said expressionlessly.

Be careful on the road!

Marina waved her hand, her smile as bright as if nothing had happened.
