The Stand in the Everyday World

"What do you mean because of me... right here!?"

"Am I that scary? According to your character, Rita, shouldn't you take the initiative to invite me to sleep with you at this time?"

"Together!?"

Shunsuke Fujii tilted his head, remembering that in the original work, Rita forced Kanda Kanda Korata to not sleep in the living room. Although it was also a conscious act as a guest, this shouldn't be the reaction he has now.

"Shunsuke, stop trying to act cute! I'd be in danger if I slept with a carnivorous boy like you!"

If it was a herbivorous boy, as a European and American woman, Rita would definitely not mind teasing him. But when it comes to Shunsuke Fujii, a carnivorous man who can casually take out other women's underwear from Mashiro's closet, she is also very generous, okay? What if the gun accidentally goes off without paying attention?

After all, although she is a European woman, as the eldest daughter of the ancient Catholic Einsworth family, she is different from those sexually liberated women at the bottom of society. There is no way she would give herself to a boy she just met for the first time.

"Tsk, if you're worried, then you can just sleep on the floor tonight and I'll sleep on the bed."

The corners of Rita's mouth twitched. Although as a guest, kicking the owner of the room out and using the bed alone would make people think that the British were ignorant of etiquette, and she did not have the idea that women had such privileges, she always felt uncomfortable when others brought it up like this.

Thinking of this, Rita couldn't help but laugh at herself. She still felt that she had no awareness of female privileges. Now she thought like this. In the final analysis, she still believed in her heart that as a woman, it would be considerate if she took the initiative to give up the bed.

Seeing Rita's embarrassment, Fujii Shunsuke stopped teasing her: "Okay, okay, I was just kidding. How could I let a guest sleep on the floor?"

Rita breathed a sigh of relief: "So..."

"I'll help you tidy up the sofa in the living room later."

"......"

Rita looked at Shunsuke Fujii expressionlessly: "Mr. Fujii, do you think it's fun to tease a lady like this?"

Fujii Shunsuke nodded seriously: "To be honest, it is really fun."

Rita clenched her fists. If she couldn't beat him, she would have hit him.

This time, Fujii Shunsuke really didn't plan to continue teasing Rita: "Okay, I'm just kidding, you can continue to sleep on the bed."

"Really?"

"Yes, but remember to sleep a little closer, otherwise I'm afraid I'll crush you when I fall asleep."

"You're still going to sleep with me!"

Seeing that Rita seemed to be really angry, Shunsuke Fujii decided to stop while he was ahead, picked up the quilt, and said, "Have a good rest tonight. I'm going to the living room."

"Wait, wait a minute!"

Seeing that Fujii Shunsuke had walked out of the room holding the quilt, Rita couldn't help but stop him.

"what happened?"

"......Junjie, please come back." Rita's face flushed, but her upbringing made her continue, "I don't want to be that kind of bad guest."

"No, from the moment you came and tried to drag Mashiro away, you became a bad guest."

"I did that for Mashiro's own good."

"Is that so? Then why did you trick Mashiro into coming to Sakurajima to draw comics in the first place?"

Rita's face changed, but she adjusted herself immediately: "Didn't I tell you the reason at the beginning? I just wanted Mashiro to hit a wall, so that she can go back to painting well."

"Oh, I see." Fujii Shunsuke nodded calmly, his thoughts unrecognizable. "By the way, I looked at your information on Google. Rita, you are also a talented painter? It praises you as a talented and beautiful girl who can inherit your grandfather's legacy. Your works often win awards. But I haven't found any relevant information about you recently. What's wrong?"

"Ah, don't blame me for checking your information. After all, it was Rita who did it first. I'm just returning the favor."

Rita could no longer control her expression after hearing what Shunsuke Fujii said. She clenched her hand holding the phone and took a deep breath. Then her expression gradually calmed down and she said calmly, "...It's nothing, it's just... I've given up painting."

When saying this, Rita turned her head away so that Shunsuke Fujii could not see her expression. Her tone was also calm, but Shunsuke Fujii could easily hear the resentment and pain in her heart.

"why?"

"There's no need to ask so many questions. Girls always have secrets, so I won't tell you."

Rita adjusted her mood and put her index finger to her lips. A smile that seemed about to overflow appeared on the corner of her mouth again, although this smile looked fake and bitter to Fujii Shunsuke.

"Really?" If it was before, Fujii Shunsuke would not ask any more questions, but now, he asked jokingly, "Then as the landlord who provides free food and accommodation and Mashiro's new owner, can you tell me more about it?"

"you......"

"Feel sorry."

The sudden apology left Rita confused and she looked at Fujii Shunsuke in confusion.

"It shouldn't be a good thing to talk about, it reminds you of unhappy things."

Shunsuke Fujii glanced at Rita, then turned his head away as if a little shy.

——What? It seems I misunderstood. Isn’t he just an honest boy who likes to show off.

Rita breathed a sigh of relief, and then suddenly laughed to herself: "Just for today, I forgive you."

"So if it's just today, I'll tell you something special."

"No need, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, and I won't ask again." Fujii Shunsuke began to pull.

Rita puffed up her mouth: "Really...you obviously started the topic, but why didn't you listen to half of it?"

Rita complained, and before Fujii Shunsuke could reply, she started talking to herself like an angry child: "Mashiro, her talent is so overwhelming that I wish she would disappear."

Although the tone was vicious, it was not bitter and vengeful, and the atmosphere in the room was not affected.

Listening to Rita's story, Shunsuke Fujii, who turned his head away from Rita, felt relieved. It seemed that the progress was good.

This is why deep affection cannot be retained since ancient times, only routines can win people's hearts!

172. New pillow

Listening to Rita's words, Fujii Shunsuke echoed: "Indeed, Mashiro's paintings are amazing. I can't even compare to her."

Rita was a little angry despite Shunsuke Fujii's compliment. "You are so understating it. You are not an oil painter so you don't understand Mashiro's talent at all! Painters like Jean-Michel Basquiat are not worthy of being compared with Mashiro. Mashiro should be compared with great artists like Picasso and Van Gogh who can be passed down in history! I was just shocked by your statement before and didn't have time to refute you... although you are indeed a genius."

At the end of her speech, Rita's voice became low again. She had just obtained most of Fujii Shunsuke's information through the Sawamura family, the Einsworth family's partner in Sakurajima. There was an introduction to Fujii Shunsuke on it. Although it was not the world of painting, it was amazing that Fujii Shunsuke could achieve this level at such a young age. He was undoubtedly a true genius. Mashiro was able to succeed in comics so quickly because of the help of this man.

"You true geniuses won't understand. You who are as talented as Mashiro won't understand the despair of an ordinary person like me. Ah, yes, maybe it's a good choice for Mashiro to stay here, because there are people like her who can help her. What she needs are true, equal partners, not those mediocre friends who will only hold her back."

The more she spoke, the more dejected she became. Rita, who was originally full of energy, became like a lost woman by the end.

Shunsuke Fujii had no idea why the atmosphere, which was fine just now, turned into this after his ordinary response.

But even so, there is one thing Shunsuke Fujii must say.

"Rita, you said that I am a true genius and I don't deny it, but Mashiro is not. She is talented, but she can only be considered an ordinary genius. The most important thing is that Mashiro is a hard-working genius. Don't go too far by turning a blind eye to Mashiro's efforts, Rita."

The moment he saw Mashiro's paintings and her works for the first time at Mrs. Izumi's house, Fujii Shunsuke was convinced that Mashiro's achievements could not be explained by the so-called "genius".

A true genius is someone who can reach the pinnacle of something without much effort. An example of a person in Naruto is Gaara, who, even though he hardly trained, relied on the sand given by his mother and his own talent. The data in the Book of the Genius was surprisingly poor, which was obviously due to insufficient training, but he was able to become the Kazekage just after he became an adult.

Typical examples of hard-working geniuses are Might Guy and Rock Lee. They are so strong only because they push themselves madly, which is something no one else can do. Mashiro is obviously also of this type.

While Rita was still thinking about these messy things and making no progress, all Mashiro was doing was painting; there were many things in Rita's world, but in Mashiro's world, besides painting, there were only those two and a half people, and so far, these two and a half people combined might not be able to surpass painting. At least Mashiro spent most of his time every day on painting.

That's why Shunsuke Fujii refuses to admit that Mashiro is a "real genius". This is undoubtedly an act of lightly wiping away all of Mashiro's efforts with just one word "genius", which is infuriating to hear.

As for myself...the rewards are far greater than the efforts, so it seems not wrong to say that I am a "real" genius. After all, to outsiders, there is no other explanation other than this.

"you......"

Rita stared at Fujii Shunsuke with wide eyes.

——Ah, ah, I messed it up in the end.

Looking at Rita's expression, Fujii Shunsuke sighed in his heart. The favorability he had just gained must have dropped back. He was too impulsive. How could he save Xiaofeng in time if he continued like this!

But even if he could do it all over again, Fujii Shunsuke felt that he would still say that the points lost from Rita could be taken back from others, but to be honest, it was very unpleasant to see Rita acting like a victim in front of Mashiro.

Especially the self-pitying image just now, which was inexplicably similar to Kanda Kanda Kōta in the original work, made Fujii Shunsuke feel even more unhappy.

In Fujii Shunsuke's eyes, Kanda Kanda Kōta is a guy who only knows how to complain about his talents all day long. But let alone Mashiro's efforts, even Aoyama Nanami's efforts are not there. No, or even Aki Tomoya's efforts are not there. It's not even in the realm of competing in talent, but the negative energy is so great. Although you may become more desperate after trying hard, at least you should try your best first!

With such a dark mentality, you always feel sorry for yourself and even make Mashiro sad. It would be better to just use a dump truck to kill you and send you to another world to cheat.

But now that the choice has been made, Fujii Shunsuke is no longer a child and will not regret it anymore. He calmly waits for Rita to break down. After all, she relied on this set of rhetoric to convince him to give up painting, and if he exposed the truth, she might become hysterical.

"Ah......"

But contrary to Fujii Shunsuke's expectation, Rita just smiled, then lay back on the bed, closed her eyes and said softly: "I'm tired. I've been on the plane all day. I'm going to sleep first."

——Sure enough, I had misjudged him.

——It seems like there’s no problem letting Mashiro continue to live here.

——Mashiro, now has someone who truly cares about her.

Seeing Rita lying on the bed wrapped in a bath towel without wearing any underwear, Fujii Shunsuke blinked and turned off the light: "Good night."

Maybe it was just as Rita said, she was very tired after a busy day. When Fujii Shunsuke finished washing up and returned to the room, Rita was already sleeping soundly with the quilt in her arms, even snoring slightly, and it seemed that she was very tired.

"Rita?" Shunsuke Fujii gently pushed her. "Make way, make way, make way. You're almost taking up all the beds."

Rita didn't move at all and didn't react at all. Shunsuke Fujii pushed her again, and she even smacked her lips.

"Everyone, please read this carefully. This was not my initiative. My bed was taken and I am the victim."

Shunsuke Fujii didn't know who he was explaining to, and he deliberately put on his underwear and got on the bed. But because the space was too small and it was a habit he developed when sleeping with Mashiro or others, after squeezing Rita away, he naturally put his arms around Rita's waist.

Well, I’ve been sleeping with girls more often recently, and I feel uncomfortable sleeping without a pillow.

"Tsk, the towels are all wet, won't you be afraid of catching a cold if you wrap them up like this?"

Then Shunsuke Fujii felt uncomfortable. It was really uncomfortable to hold the steamy bath towel against his body. Besides, it was spring now, and it was easy to catch a cold by doing this!

After considerately untying the bath towel, Shunsuke Fujii unconsciously - really unconsciously, this is the habit of the Sea King, he put his hand on Rita's slender waist again.

This hand deserves a beating!

After slapping his left hand, Shunsuke Fujii looked at Rita and said, "Rita, if you don't want to, just say so."

"......"

Shunsuke Fujii put his left hand back with satisfaction and went to sleep.

173. Master of Catching Adultery Mashiro (Major Change)

The next morning, Shunsuke Fujii woke up to a soft and fragrant feeling.

With his eyes closed, Shunsuke Fujii could feel a soft, fleshy touch beneath his body, and his head seemed to be sunk into a mass of soft flesh. His left hand also had a slippery touch. He subconsciously rubbed his head and moved his hands. Then he could clearly hear the sudden rapid breathing in his ears.

"Then... that, Shunsuke? Mr. Fujii?" Rita's voice was full of nervousness. She couldn't even speak Sakurajima language fluently. She stammered, "Can you please stop rubbing it first, stop... stop first."

Fujii Shunsuke suddenly opened his eyes.

The first thing that caught my eye was a pink, soft and tempting strawberry, and then as my head moved, the next thing I saw was the towering mountain. If nothing unexpected happened, I would be sandwiched between the two mountains.

Maybe the small strawberries in the early morning were too tempting. When his head was still a little dizzy and he didn't understand the situation, Fujii Shunsuke instinctively opened his mouth and revealed his bloody mouth.

"Wait! Don't-!"

"Aww."

Shunsuke Fujii took a bite of the small strawberry as an appetizer fruit when he got up in the morning.

"Yeah~~~"

Feeling the pain in her chest, Rita's pretty face flushed, and her breathing became heavy. She couldn't help but want to push Fujii Shunsuke away, but when she felt the touch of his teeth, she panicked for a moment. She pursed her lips tightly, but didn't dare to use force with her hands, as if she wanted to resist but also to welcome him.

————Fragrant, soft and chewy.

This is how Shunsuke Fujii feels now, and this is all he has in his mind now.

Actually, Fujii Shunsuke was already awake at this time, but the special state of the early morning was still causing him to burp. So he continued to use force on his mouth as if he had not woken up yet, and his tongue naturally began to circle.

“Hmm…”

Rita couldn't help but let out another low moan, but her hands were still moving so gently. This not-so-strong resistance made the room seem to be stained with a layer of rose color, and the atmosphere was full of ambiguity.

Now that I'm here...

This was Shunsuke Fujii's original idea. Since he had come here and done what he had done, he naturally could not give up halfway before Rita slapped him awake. But after Rita's reluctant resistance, his mentality gradually began to change.

The first to move was the left hand, which began to run wildly out of control again, gradually exploring the mysterious rainforest. At the same time, it also opened its mouth and began to constantly move its position, leaving its mark on Rita.

But when the left hand finally reached its destination after going through numerous difficulties and dangers, Rita was shocked and suddenly stood up and pushed Fujii Shunsuke away: "Shunsuke, don't! Mashiro is still here!"

"......"
