I won't be a loser.

Mitsuha stared at Xianren for a while and felt that it was a rare opportunity for her to come to Tokyo, and it seemed like a waste of her precious time to focus too much attention on her brother.

Taking advantage of Xianren's unpreparedness, she came to Setsuna's side, stretched out her hands, and hugged Setsuna from behind, which made Setsuna stunned for a moment. She looked back in surprise at Sanye who was hugging her. She was a little surprised and a little confused. She looked back at Xianren, not knowing what Sanye was going to do.

"What do you want to do?"

"You two are dating. You are my brother, so Miss Setsuna will be like a sister to me from now on. It's normal for a younger sister to hug her, right?"

"......"

It sounds reasonable, but looking at Mitsuha in front of him, Xianren always feels that this is not what she meant.

"I don't know how mom and the others are chatting. Why don't you go and see?"

"Leaving you and Setsuna in this room?"

"There are some topics between girls that are not convenient for boys to hear. Even as my brother and Setsuna's boyfriend, we are entitled to keep some little secrets, right?"

Her eyes looked at Setsuna, and she didn't know if she was drugged by Sanye, but when Xianren looked at her, Setsuna nodded slightly.

She didn't think too much about it at first, but after hearing what Sanye said, some curiosity about Xianren's past arose in Shanshan's heart. She wanted to know what kind of image Xianren was in Sanye's eyes, so when Xianren looked at her, she immediately agreed with Sanye's words.

"Well, you guys chat, I'll go out and take a look at the situation."

Xianren was also somewhat concerned, but he was concerned about the situation of Qingura Mai. Seeing that Mitsuha and Setsuna both wanted to talk to each other, he did not stay in Setsuna's room any longer. He walked out of the room silently and closed the door for the two of them.

"My friend recommended some different brands to me. They are better than what I'm using now, and my skin is not as bad as before..."

As soon as I walked out of the room, I heard the conversation in the living room. I thought it would be a more serious discussion about Setsuna and my future, but I didn’t expect that they were talking about topics like skin care products?

The wise man closed the door and slowly walked to the side of the two people. He stopped and listened to them exchanging their skin care experiences. The expression on his face was subtle, and he did not interrupt their interest. He stood quietly by and listened to their conversation.

Qing Pu Mai was a little nervous at first, not knowing how to start a conversation with the other party. But after she started talking, she found that the wise mother in front of her was not as old-fashioned as she had imagined. On the contrary, she was quite easy to talk to. Unconsciously, the conversation turned from the child to each other, from the hardships of raising children to how to better take care of their own skin...

Cherry Blossom Season: 149. It is the dust of the stars, but also the mirror of the world.

Sekai Saionji squatted in front of her window, looking at the dark night scene outside.

The telescope she bought before was not clear enough, so she bought a more expensive set of astronomical telescopes a while ago. They were not of professional quality, but it was not a big problem to use them to observe the daily life of the wise man.

"Xianren's sister does look a bit like Xianren. The other woman who looks a bit mature should be Xianren's mother, right? She doesn't look like a mother, but more like a sister. I wonder if Xianren has a sister..."

In the evening, I clearly saw Xianren leading his family to the Xiyuanji world of the Qingpu family. He stared at the door of the Qingpu family for a long time. He thought that they would leave the Qingpu family in an hour at most, but he didn't expect that two hours had passed and there was still no movement.

"It seems that Xianren's family and Setsuna get along well. If things continue like this..."

Feeling that her chances of getting promoted were getting smaller and smaller, Saionji Sekai's mood suddenly became depressed. She temporarily withdrew her gaze, picked up the juice beside her, took a sip, raised her head, and looked at the night sky outside the window. She herself didn't understand what she was thinking.

He sighed dejectedly and leaned back to the telescope, staring at the Kiyoura family when the voice of Saionji Yuko was heard outside the door.

"World, are you still awake?"

He looked at the Kiyoura household, wanting to see when Kento would leave the Setsuna household's Saionji world, and when he heard his mother's voice, he turned his head to look behind him, and slowly walked to the door of the room, opened it, and stuck his head out of the room.

"Not yet, what's going on?"

"It's been a while since last time, and I haven't seen you bring your boyfriend here. Isn't it vacation now?"

Saionji Yuko stood in the living room wiping her hair, looking at her daughter whose head was only sticking out of the room, and asked about her relationship matters. It was originally agreed that Saionji Sekai would bring her boyfriend back for her to see.

But such a long time has passed and there has been no movement. Her daughter doesn't care, but she is starting to get concerned.

Normally, she and her daughter don't have much common topics. Saionji Yuko is also very clear that she doesn't care enough about her daughter, but that doesn't mean she doesn't care about her daughter.

"It's the holidays, but not everyone is free. He also has his own things to deal with, so he doesn't have time to spend with me during this holiday."

Originally, he thought his mother had something important to say, but after hearing Saionji Yuuko's question, Saionji Sekai's expression suddenly fell. He lost all interest, retracted his head, and slammed the door of the room shut.

"Um......."

Standing in the living room wiping her hair, Yuko Saionji looked at her daughter's rough action of closing the door and could see that her mood did not seem to be very good.

Thinking of her daughter's strange behavior recently, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes and became concerned...

The two elders had a very happy chat, but no matter how happy they were, they had to rest at night.

"It's getting late, let's go back."

Listening to the conversation between Miyamizu Futaba and Kiyoura Mai, it gradually became subtle. They had already started discussing their expectations for the next generation, and what gender would be better if Kento and Setsuna had a child. When Miyamizu Futaba said that she would prefer Kento to have a boy, Kento couldn't stand it anymore.

He came to Miyamizu Futaba and said that it was getting late and it was time to go back and rest.

"Hmm...that's true. It's already nine o'clock. It's time to rest."

"Going back to Xianren's apartment?"

After hearing what Miyamizu Futaba said, Qingura Mai couldn't help but look sideways at the standing boy. Qingura Mai had been to his apartment more than once, and she knew clearly the size of Xianren's apartment. It felt a bit tight to accommodate three people...

"Well, I have a spare quilt, so it's no problem to sleep on the floor. When the time comes, it won't be a big problem for three people."

Xianren, who guessed the meaning of Qingpu Mai's words, nodded.

Qing Pu Mai wanted to say something, but after seeing Xianren's gaze and expression, she silently swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

She called out Mitsuha who was staying in Setsuna's room. The girl originally wanted to say that she would sleep with Setsuna tonight, but when she opened the door and saw Miyamizu Futaba standing in the living room, all the words she wanted to say were completely choked in her heart, and she silently followed Xianren out of the room.

After saying goodbye to Qingura Mai, the three of them returned to Xianren's apartment from Qingura's house.

The weather in May was much warmer than in April. Even walking on the streets at night wouldn't feel cold. Mitsuha also wanted to learn more from Setsuna about Kento's behavior during his time in Tokyo...

"You're very popular in Tokyo."

"Ok?"

As Xianren walked forward, he felt his arm being gently touched. He turned around and saw Mitsuha beside him, looking at him with a playful expression.

"I have always been quite aware that I am very popular. What do you want to talk about?"

It cannot be said that he has any extraordinary personal charm, but his character is not bad either, and his appearance is just average. Xianren has always had a clear understanding of his popularity.

As the saying goes, a person should know himself, and he has always done a good job in this regard.

No matter how many times, seeing her brother who was never humble and had no disguise in front of her, Sanye couldn't help but mourn in her heart. She didn't know how those girls who were deceived by her brother's appearance would react when they knew his inner self.

"No, it's nothing."

I originally wanted to talk to Xianren about why he chose Setsuna over other girls, but now seeing Xianren's reaction, I suddenly lost interest in talking about it.

After glancing at Sanye, Xianren didn't ask any further questions. The three of them returned to the door of the apartment. Xianren opened the door and let the two of them enter the house first. He followed them into the apartment.

He erected the low table in the middle of the room against the wall, securing it so it wouldn't fall over. He then spread his spare quilt on the floor, and his somewhat shabby floor mat was ready.

"There's not even a pillow. It must be uncomfortable to sleep..."

Looking at the mat laid out by Xianren, Sanye couldn't help but complain.

Before going to bed, he still had to take a shower and left his apartment to his mother and sister. Xianren himself temporarily left the apartment on the pretext of buying some drinks.

Looking at Xianren's departing back, Sanye narrowed her eyes. She always felt that her brother was going out to have fun, but she couldn't leave with Xianren. She pursed her lips and stared at him for a while, then closed the door.

"The world should be at home, but her mother is home too, right?"

She thought that since she was on vacation, she should at least meet up with Saionji Sekai. But she thought that at this point in time, even Saionji Sekai should have rested, and her mother must have been home by now.

He didn't want to go to the Saionji house and come face to face with Saionji Sekai's mother.

Anyway, there are opportunities to meet on weekdays, so let's just forget about it now. There's no need to run to someone's door in the middle of the night and wake them up when they want to rest.

Going forward along the road, Xianren unknowingly came to the convenience store he usually visited. Looking at the male clerk standing in the store, he found that it was not the female clerk he usually saw. This made Xianren a little curious about the shift schedule of this convenience store, but he also knew that he was curious and it was not convenient for him to ask.

After entering the convenience store, he walked towards the merchandise area. Looking at the various products on the shelves, Xianren couldn't help but wonder which ones Mitsuha would like here.

There was nothing in particular that he wanted to buy, but since he had already come to the convenience store, he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't buy something. Xianren's eyes stopped at the milk candy on the shelf, and he felt that Sanye might like it.

"It's night time now. If I buy it, I'll probably blame it on Sanye if she gets cavities. Forget it, let's look at something else."

Estimating that it would take at least an hour for the two of them, Xianren walked around the convenience store for a while, looked at some magazines, picked up a weekly magazine at random, bought some drinks, warm coffee and oden, then paid and left the convenience store.

He stopped in a quiet park nearby, sat on a park bench, put down the shopping bag in his hand, placed the oden beside him, opened the coffee, raised his head, looked at the starry sky, and took a sip.

"We've already been to Asakusa and bought some souvenirs. Let's go to Roppongi tomorrow. It's a rare trip to Tokyo for Mom, and there might be something she'd like to buy in Roppongi. I think my husband would be very happy if I just bought him a gift."

As for who the 'old man' is, there is only one other man in the family besides the wise man.

As the mayor of Hida, Toshiki Miyamizu's annual income is not low at all. At least it is much higher than that of most people living in Tokyo. No matter how prosperous Roppongi is, he can still afford it.

Even if Xianren still had some living expenses left, it still seemed a bit stretched in a place like Roppongi. If he really went to Roppongi tomorrow, he would definitely not be able to spend money.

"Mitsuha, that girl, would probably be very happy to see a place that embodies the prosperity of the city. Well, besides Roppongi, there are some other attractions nearby... What are they...?"

Even if he had lived in this place for more than ten years, it was impossible for Xianren to remember all the places in his mind, especially now and in the future. Most places were subtly different. There was a certain discrepancy between his memory and reality, which made him unsure for a while.

After sitting in the park and thinking for a while, he only decided on a wise man in Roppongi. He temporarily gave up thinking, stood up, and walked towards his apartment.

It’s almost time, even if I want to take a shower, I should have finished it.

Xianren returned to the door of his apartment and pressed the doorbell. He heard footsteps inside and Mitsuha, with her long wet hair, appeared in front of him, staring at him intently.

"what happened?"

"You went out to eat alone, didn't you?"

"what?"

"I didn't even wipe the corners of my mouth clean."

Subconsciously raising his hand, Xianren paused, looked at Sanye who seemed to be smiling in front of him, and helplessly handed the shopping bag in his hand to her arms.

"I bought these for you and mom. I don't know if you can use them. If not, why not take them back with you?"

"what?"

Mitsuha glanced down and her cheeks flushed.

In addition to snacks like drinks and biscuits, there are also some daily necessities that girls may need every month. Sanye grinned at the wise man in front of her, wanting to be angry out of shame, but then she remembered that she seemed to have not brought anything with her when she went out this time.

He snatched it from Xianren's hand and turned around to rush into the house. Xianren, who was standing at the door, walked in slowly and closed the door casually. Looking at Miyamizu Futaba and Mitaba who were already wearing pajamas in the house, he looked around and walked into the bathroom.

First, he poured their clothes into the washing machine. Xianren stood in the bathroom, looked around, and confirmed that there was no problem before closing and locking the bathroom door.

Even if Sanye has something urgent to do later, he has to hold it in!

ten minutes.

After rinsing himself, Xianren walked out of the bathroom in his pajamas. Looking at Sanye, who was sitting in the room drying her hair and looking a little bored, he also blew his hair.

"Almost, time to go to bed."

"Didn't you buy a pillow before you went out?"

"It's the middle of the night, how can they still be operating... Oh, it seems there is, but it's too far away. I'll fold my clothes and make do with it. I'll go check it out tomorrow."

"Here are the pillows for you."

Miyamizu Futaba, who originally wanted to sleep on the floor with her daughter, slept on the bed after being persuaded by Kento and Mitsuha. But now, after hearing what Mitsuha said, she picked up the pillow and handed it to Mitsuha.

"No, no, no! I don't need it. I was just complaining casually."

Sanye, knowing that her mother was a little weak, would not take the pillow her mother handed to her.

Even though she was a little willful in her daily life, she was always clear about what she could and could not do. After refusing Miyamizu Futaba's pillow, she simply pulled up a corner of the quilt, crawled into the bed, and closed her eyes.

"go to bed!"

Looking at her daughter, Miyamizu Futaba looked at Xianren helplessly. Xianren also shook his head and walked to the switch.

"Go to sleep."

Helpless Miyamizu Futaba arranged the pillows and lay down on the bed silently. Xianren turned off the lights, went to the floor mat and lay down.

I don’t know how long it has been since I last slept with Mitsuha. Xianren closed his eyes, feeling the gentle breathing beside him, and his consciousness was particularly clear.

Slurp——

Her hand accidentally touched Sanye beside her, and she quickly retracted her hand.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked to the side. In the moonlight, he saw the other person's clear and bright eyes, staring at him with dissatisfaction.

They stared at each other, no one spoke.
