Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

"I came out to get a basin of water. The floor heating in the room has been on, and it's too dry."

Zhu Yin raised the basin in her hand and filled it with water from the faucet.

"Let me do it."

Bai Ye took the basin of water and did the work for her, intending to please Zhu Yin and ask her to go back and stop talking nonsense.

Zhu Yin and Sayuri stood behind Bai Ye, and only they could understand the eye contact between the two.

"You are the head of the family after all, Lord Ye. You have such a large harem, don't be caught in a small incident and be at a loss. Everyone is resting in the room. I sent Ying Lili to the bathroom to take a shower and wash her pantyhose. She won't be out soon. If you want to take action, then do it."

white night"……"

He wondered if Zhu Yin was urging him to take advantage of the opportunity to do something to Sayuri?

"Am I that kind of person?" Bai Ye was bluffing.

However, he didn't explain whether he wasn't someone who "was at a loss as to what to do after being caught" or whether he wasn't someone who "took advantage of the opportunity to attack Sayuri."

When Bai Ye picked up the basin of water and turned around, he met Sayuri's eyes. There was tenderness in the latter's eyes, as if whatever Bai Ye did could be forgiven.

"Here, take the basin back. I'll be back in a moment."

Zhu Yin took the basin of water, her eyes shifting playfully between Bai Ye and Sayuri.

"You don't have to tell me, just tell Sayuri."

……

Zhu Yin left, leaving Bai Ye and Sayuri to occasionally look into each other's eyes.

The soup pot was still bubbling, but the atmosphere was no longer the same as before Zhu Yin came. Bai Ye and Xiao Bai were sitting together in the corridor, with their arms seemingly close together, but they were not hugging each other like before.

"What a coincidence that Akane came here."

Sayuri spoke first, her sleeves and soft hands wrapped around Bai Ye's forearm again, and her delicate body leaned slightly, erasing the last distance.

Bai Ye's little heart trembled and his thoughts became active.

Since Sayuri has taken the initiative, wouldn't it be ungentlemanly for me not to respond?!

He looked straight ahead, and his big hands quietly climbed up Sayuri's waist. After confirming the touch of the kimono against her skin and getting no resistance at all, he gradually became bolder and with a little force, he hugged Sayuri to his shoulders.

"It's a bit cold outside, isn't it."

"Yeah, I'm fine. The floor is a little cold."

Bai Ye also felt that the floor was cold, and even when he leaned against the charcoal stove, he could not underestimate the cold winter.

As the head of the family, the last thing you want is to see your beloved family members suffer from the cold, right?

Looking at Sayuri's smiling eyes, Bai Ye gained courage and said "Excuse me" in an almost inaudible voice. He passed his right hand under Sayuri's knees, held Sayuri horizontally on his legs, and wrapped them both tightly with a blanket.

"Hmm...it seems that's not enough."

Bai Ye was still not satisfied. He held Sayuri steady until she leaned on his chest and neck. Then he put his left hand around her waist again, tilted his head slightly, and transferred his body temperature to Sayuri through his forehead.

"This way I won't be cold anymore. I've done my best to be the head of the family, right?"

Sayuri rubbed her forehead against his.

"Yes, that's great. Xiao Jun is becoming more and more competent as the head of the family. You should continue to care for and love your family."

Sayuri closed her eyes and enjoyed the warm embrace that protected her from the wind and rain.

Bai Ye stopped talking. While enjoying the softness that belonged only to Sayuri, he played with her hair under the blanket, unwilling to let go for a long time.

……

I do not know how long it has been.

It wasn't until the faint sound of voices came from the room that Sayuri opened her eyes and yawned slightly.

Suddenly, Bai Ye felt a warm and moist feeling on his neck. He raised his eyebrows and looked down at Sayuri in his arms. His eyes swept over her cherry lips that looked glistening in the firelight.

"wake up?"

"Yeah, I feel so comfortable in Xiao Jun's arms. I feel so safe. I fell asleep as soon as I closed my eyes."

"You dare to fall asleep in the yard in the cold winter, Xiaobaihe, too."

"Hasn't Xiao Jun been playing with my hair? He must have noticed something was wrong with me, right?" Sayuri blinked mischievously.

Bai Ye couldn't say teasing words like "I won't pay attention to you next time", he just wanted to hold Sayuri in his arms and protect her.

"Sayuri, you are so important to me..."

"Yeah, but you don't need to take me too seriously. Just treat me as one of your family. Otherwise, I think Xiao Jun will be bound by this relationship."

"I didn't expect you to suddenly start preaching, Sayuri." Bai Ye couldn't help laughing.

Sayuri looked up into his eyes

"I have made it clear to Xiao Jun how much he values me, so Xiao Jun should understand my place in the family. He doesn't need to attach too much importance to me. Just treat me like Shi Yu and the others."

What kind of treatment is it to treat Sayuri like Shiyu and the others?

Perhaps it was because night had fallen, the first scene of evening exercises that popped up in Bai Ye’s mind, and his body reacted a little.

Sayuri's face was flushed lightly, and she looked particularly cute and attractive under the firelight.

"It seems that I shouldn't discuss this with Xiao Jun at night. If Xiao Jun misunderstands my feelings, the scene will be too beautiful to imagine~"

Bai Ye scratched his nose, not knowing how to explain.

Sayuri sat up straight in Bai Ye's arms.

"Well, if you keep coveting Xiao Jun's warmth, it will be too funny if everyone sees you. If Ying Lili sees you, she'll want to laugh at the thought of Xiao Jun's explanations."

Being provoked by her, the pride of the gentleman Bai Ye was aroused.

"What's there to be afraid of? I just hugged you, Sayuri. I didn't do anything bad. Even if Eriri comes, I'm not afraid."

Sayuri got up from Bai Ye's legs and covered Bai Ye's lips with a slender finger.

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to that day~"

Chapter 1099 A good opportunity to get to know Sayuri better

Bai Ye brought the food back to the house and was unsurprisingly stared at by everyone.

Before he could speak, Chu Hai stepped forward, took the food, and sniffed Bai Ye's shoulders. Then, with a look as if he had discovered a new world, he turned around and said to everyone excitedly:

"Everyone guessed right! Senior is completely filled with the scent of Auntie. The scent on his chest is particularly strong, and the second strongest is the smell of cooking. The rest of the scent left by everyone in the afternoon is gone."

white night"……"

He guessed that he would be questioned by everyone when he returned, but he didn't expect that this disaster would be so direct.

At this time, Eriri just came back with the washed pantyhose. She was a little confused because she didn't hear it completely.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"

"Nothing." Shiyu's tone didn't seem to care much, "It's just that Xiaobai-kun and my aunt were doing something bad in the yard just now."

"How could that be?!" Bai Ye retorted.

"Oh, so we did something good together..."

Bai Ye's face was full of black lines. Is this tone any different from saying that someone has done something bad?

Ying Lili's expression was not much better than Bai Ye's. She wanted to throw the pantyhose containing the phone in Bai Ye's face, but thinking that this was a reward for Bai Ye, she held back and ended up hurting herself internally.

As soon as Xiaohui took the pantyhose, Yingli immediately exploded and rushed to Baiye.

"Damn you—"

"I didn't do anything bad." Bai Yeban raised his hands.

"Then what did you do!" Ying Lili put her hands on her hips in anger.

"I hugged Sayuri for a while. It was just like yesterday. It was very cold outside. Even with the charcoal fire, it was still cold."

Yinglili "!!!"

At this moment, Sayuri also came back and confirmed Bai Ye's words.

"Yes, Xiao Jun is very considerate. He was worried that I would be cold and even covered me with a blanket."

Hearing that her mother was bullied by Bai Ye again, Eriri was originally furious, but when she heard Sayuri admit it in an indifferent tone, she suddenly felt a little dizzy.

When did it become natural for these two to hug each other?

It's not just Eriri who feels this way, Shiyu and Xiaohui also have doubts.

Bingtang and Chuhai smiled at each other. They had seen something even more exciting in the tent yesterday, but they just didn't tell anyone.

Everyone has to admit that Sayuri's presence has become a daily routine for the Baiye family, and the intimate behavior between Sayuri and Baiye has become more and more normalized.

Eriri poked Sayuri's arm.

"Mom, if you keep going like this, be careful that one day you'll be bullied by Hundan Baiye. I won't be able to protect you when I'm not around."

"Eri has grown up~" Sayuri cupped her face in her hands. "If you spend more time with your mother, Xiao-jun might not dare to do bad things anymore."

"Why is it 'maybe' instead of 'definitely'?" Eriri complained.

"Well~" Sayuri's eyes quickly circled around Bai Ye, with a smile that was both playful and amusing. "I'll have to ask Xiao Jun. If Xiao Jun is satisfied, he probably won't do that~"

Sayuri was hesitant to speak, which gave everyone endless room for imagination, but also caused disaster for Bai Ye.

"Xiaobaijun, are you ever satisfied?" Shiyu touched his shoulder and glanced down.

Bai Ye didn't respond to her, knowing in his heart that if he went along with her he would only fall into Shiyu's trap.

"You can't even fill your stomach and say this is useful? Eat."

Seeing that Bai Ye was still pretending to be noble, Shiyu laughed out loud.

"Then let's eat first~"

. . . . . .

Counting on fingers, this is the seventh day and sixth night of Bai Ye and his group's trip to Hokkaido, and the trip is almost coming to an end.

"How many places have we been to recently?" Bai Ye suddenly asked while eating.

"Hmm..." Shiyu bit the tip of her chopsticks. "I spent Christmas in a hotel, then went hiking the day after tomorrow, and then rested at home again. After that, I went out for a walk yesterday and today. I don't think I went to many places."

"Counting the New Year's Eve celebration at the shrine tomorrow, it feels..." Xiaohui pondered for a few seconds, "It feels pretty much the same as being at home. Everyone only goes out when they feel like it, and the rest of the time they stay in their rooms."

"In the end, we moved to a new place to live." Ying Lili said while eating.

"You won't deny that you're a homebody this time?" Bai Ye joked with interest.

"Have I ever denied that I'm a stay-at-home?" Eriri learned her lesson this time to avoid being hit by a boomerang.

Bai Ye recalled Eriri's original character design, which was a perfect blonde lady who loved art and had no idea what a otaku was.

"Now I have become my own little otaku golden retriever..."

Bai Ye wiped his crocodile tears, and Ying Lili was so disgusted that her mouth twitched. But now she was eating, so she had to write down this grudge in her little notebook and take revenge after dinner.

"It's nice to be at home. To be honest, I've been out for almost a week and I miss home a little bit." Bingtang said.

"Are you missing home? I feel like it doesn't fit in with the image of a sister studying abroad in Meiji." Chu Hai said.

"What kind of personality do I have?"

"Energetic and outgoing, the kind of people you see in comics who never get lonely when they're away from home for a long time."

"Wait—I didn't have that idea from the beginning, did I? It's so different from the clearly defined personalities of Shiyu-senpai, Eriri, and Kei. It can't even compare to my aunt."

The topic went around and around and came back to Sayuri.

"My character... To borrow Michiru's words, do I have a character?" Sayuri was very curious.

"Yeah, my mother's personality... I can't imagine it." Eriri agreed.

"I think so." Shiyu suddenly said.

"Kasumigaoka, do you think you know my mother better than I do?" Eriri pouted her cherry lips, a little dissatisfied.

"Seriously, those involved are often confused, while those on the sidelines can see things more clearly. Speaking of which, Eriri, you take it for granted that 'Auntie is my mother, so I understand.'"

"If mom isn't my mom, then who else could it be?" Ying Lili glanced sideways. "Don't use words I don't understand to alienate the relationship between me and mom."

"Hmm... What Shiyu-senpai is trying to say is that Eriri thinks that 'Aunt is a mother' is part of her aunt's personality."
