They all pushed me!

"Be careful on the road——"

After the routine greetings, Moriyama Mikuri closed the door.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"

There was not even time to consider whether Tsuzaki Heimatsu outside had really left. The moment the door closed, Moriyama Mikuri, who had always had a fixed smile on his face, finally felt ashamed and could not help but utter an incoherent and broken sound from his throat.

As if the aftereffects of some strong liquor were taking effect, Moriyama Mikuri covered her flushed cheeks with her hands and lay powerless near the entrance, rolling left and right on the ground several times like a cat, as if she wanted to use the cool wooden floor to cool down her hot heart and body.

However, compared to Moriyama Mikuri who was rolling around at home in shame, Tsuzaki Heimatsu, who came to work in the company, was dragged into the abyss of overtime before he had time to carefully think about what the other party said this morning. He was busy with his colleagues in the company for a whole week without going home.

When Moriyama Mikuri knocked on Tsuzaki Heimitsu's door again with mixed feelings, ready to provide her weekly housekeeping service, she met Tsuzaki Heimitsu, who had been tired from a whole week and had caught a cold from his colleagues, and was in very weak health.

"The sickly limited edition of Ryo!"

Although Kitagawa Ryo always felt that Hoshino Ai was too excited, he even felt like he hoped he would get a minor illness not only in the drama but also in real life.

But I'm really sorry, thanks to his above-average physical fitness and good work and rest habits, Beichuan Ryo has not been sick for a very long time.

But to be honest, Kitagawa Ryo can understand Hoshino Ai's thoughts. After all, people who are sick are often physically and mentally weak, and it is easy for them to want others to stay with them and want to rely on others.

Although Kitagawa Ryo doesn't get sick very often, both Hoshino Ai and her sister Rumi have experienced illness over the years. He can still clearly remember the former when she had just arrived in Tokyo and called him in the middle of the night because she was suffering from menstrual cramps due to irregular diet and sleep schedule. He also remembers the latter who turned on the air conditioner to sleep in the summer and didn't like to cover herself with a quilt, so she had a calf cramp in the middle of the night and called him over with tears in her eyes for emergency help, stretching and massaging her legs for half the night.

In that case, even though it's just acting, it can also be said that I can experience the feeling of being sick and being taken care of by others?

Looking at the slightly sallow face in the mirror due to makeup, Beichuan Liang quickly got into the state, and in an instant turned himself into a sickly puppy drenched by the rain, or as if he were some exquisite porcelain that would break at the slightest touch.

Because he has always lived alone, Tsuzaki Heikuni refused Moriyama Mikuri's kindness at first. However, when the other party continued to send emails asking if he could help, such as buying some things at a convenience store, Tsuzaki Heikuni still responded to his request:

"Can you buy me some cold medicine and a box of ice cream? I need the receipt."

The last request was naturally made out of consideration for the convenience of reimbursement afterwards. Even when his brain was almost burned to a pulp, Tsuzaki Heimatsu still did not forget his own character.

As for boxed ice cream, this is also an old tradition in Japan. It is said that eating ice cream when you have a cold will make you get better faster. Although Kitagawa Ryo thinks this is quite unreliable, compared to the more incomprehensible way of using green onions...well, ice cream is still reliable.

After Moriyama Mikuri bought the goods as requested, she came to Tsuzaki Heimatsu's house again. After pressing the doorbell several times without any response, she found that the door was not locked.

Suddenly thinking of something bad, Moriyama Mikuri quickly opened the door:

"Tsuzaki-san, I'm coming in."

-------------------------------------

Tsuzaki Hiramitsu, played by Kitagawa Ryo, was lying dead in the living room with his fingers pressed on the buttons of his mobile phone. His posture paid tribute to the leader of the Tekkadan, so at first glance it looked like a murder scene.

"Mr. Tsuzaki! Are you okay?"

"water……"

After hearing the other party's faint request, Moriyama Mikuri quickly took out mineral water from the shopping bag.

This was something he had done to her a thousand times over the past ten years.

She quickly loosened the bottle cap and handed it to him.

After noticing that the other person was sweating and his pajamas were all soaked, Moriyama Mikuri acted quickly. After getting the other person's permission, she immediately found a new set of pajamas from the closet in his room, went to the bathroom to find a towel, wet it and wrung it dry, and asked him to wipe the sweat off his face and change his clothes.

When Tsuzaki Heimura had changed his clothes and was sitting on the edge of the bed with his head still groggy, Moriyama Mikuri walked into his room again with a tray containing two flavors of ice cream, cold medicine and warm water. She knelt in front of him quite naturally, and arranged everything in a gentle and amiable manner before leaving the room.

At the last moment before closing the door, Hoshino Ai couldn't help but smile sincerely when she saw Kitagawa Ryo lying on the bed she had made, wearing the clothes she had prepared and eating the ice cream she had bought.

She quietly closed the door, holding Beichuan Liang's dirty clothes, and couldn't help but waved her fist:

"The usually cold-faced man looks vulnerable..."

"so cute!"

By the time Tsuzaki Heimura finished taking the medicine and woke up, it was already afternoon.

I don’t know what time it was. The dim sunset light shone through the curtains onto the quilt. My mind and body, which felt a little more comfortable, were as lazy as a sponge soaked with water and I didn’t want to move at all.

I can hear the sound of chopping vegetables coming from the kitchen.

It seems that porridge is being cooked, and there is a gurgling sound.

For some reason, Tsuzaki Heimitsu, who had been serious in all the previous shots of the first episode, finally showed a reassuring smile.

-------------------------------------

"Tonight we had egg porridge."

Kitagawa Rumi scooped up a spoonful with a wooden spoon and put it into her mouth. Although she used the word "actually", she didn't really care in her heart. After all, Hoshino Ai was not here tonight, and it was dinner time for only her and her brother:

“——It’s hot.”

"Blow it before you eat it, why are you still acting like a child?"

Beichuan Ryo, who was sitting next to his sister, also shook his head helplessly.

"That's all my brother would say."

Kitagawa Rumi muttered to herself, she also understood that her current age was stuck in a period of time where she was neither too old nor too young.

If she were a few years younger, she could now act like a spoiled child and let Beichuan Liang feed her without any scruples, just like how Beichuan Liang took care of her when she was two or three years old. He would blow on each spoonful of porridge and rice again and again, and only after confirming whether it was hot would he carefully feed it into her mouth.

If she were a few years older, she could now confess the truth to Beichuan Liang without any scruples, express her feelings to him openly, and tell him in detail the girlish feelings of two lifetimes.

But it happened to be twelve years old, an age that was neither too old nor too young.

Half of the time she could enjoy Kitagawa Ryo's meticulous pampering of her childhood, and half of the time she could feel Kitagawa Ryo's avoidance of suspicion and his almost distant respect for her personal time and space.

A few days ago, I made up my mind to confess the truth in a short period of time because of "The Daughter of the Sea", but I can't help but fear the worst outcome.

If she keeps her reincarnation secret, she will always be Kitagawa Rumi, Kitagawa Ryo's younger sister.

And if the truth is revealed, who is she? Or, can Liang still regard her as a sister at that time?

The experiences of the past twelve years have accumulated into a considerable sunk cost.

Just as Kindaichi Toshiro said, Kitagawa Rumi is still escaping. As long as she has not seen the worst result happening in front of her, she can comfort and deceive herself unlimitedly.

Even when she had witnessed the kiss between the two at the entrance for the first time, which caused her a severe psychological shock, Kitagawa Rumi was able to cover it up with the excuse that she had taken Ryo's first kiss in advance.

After all, three years have passed since then, and Kitagawa Ryo and Hoshino Ai have not really become husband and wife. They are now top-tier actors with a large number of fans. Even for economic interests, their agencies should not allow them to announce their relationship or even their engagement.

Maybe this is what is called a shameful but useful escape.

Just another three years, when I’m fifteen or sixteen…

Kitagawa Rumi thought so and unknowingly finished all the porridge and rice.

After sitting on the sofa and masturbating for a while and watching TV for a while, Kitagawa Rumi also shouted to Kitagawa Ryo who had just finished washing the dishes:

"I'm going to the troupe to practice dancing for a while. Brother, you can take a shower first."

After the official decision to debut as idols and the formation of the group, Kitagawa Rumi and the other two began intensive training. Because of their relationship with Kindaichi Toshiro, the training location was usually set in the vacant soundproof practice room of the LALALAI Theater.

"Safe travels."

After receiving this customary family concern from Kitagawa Ryo, Kitagawa Rumi changed her shoes contentedly at the entrance and skipped out of the door.

Not long after Kitagawa Rumi went out, Hoshino Ai, who seemed to know her activity schedule very well, came to the door of Kitagawa's house.

"I'm coming in, Ryo."

Because Kitagawa Rumi had just left for a while, the anti-theft chain of the Kitagawa family had not been re-hung by Kitagawa Ryo, so Hoshino Ai, holding the spare key, walked into the living room easily.

"Have you just finished your shower?"

Seeing Kitagawa Ryo coming out of the bathroom with dirty clothes and his hair not even dry yet, Hoshino Ai raised her hand quite naturally, like a child asking her parents for candy and said as a matter of course:

"Give me the clothes and I'll wash them."

"Love has exceeded the limit."

Beichuan Liang shook his head helplessly and handed over the dirty clothes in his hand:

"Washing the male protagonist's underwear is a content that is unlocked in the later episodes."

"If Ryo said that, the two of us could have jumped directly to the last episode. No, it even feels like a separate SP special is needed."

Hoshino Ai took Kitagawa Ryo's dirty clothes and began to wash them by hand on the balcony quite skillfully. After all, there were only a few pieces of summer clothes, so it was not a difficult job.

However, after all, it was only during this period that she started to do housework, and she always subconsciously wanted to wash the cold clothes more cleanly. In addition, the summer heat was still there, and after Hoshino Ai finished washing several pieces of clothes, she was still sweating a lot.

"So hot……"

Hoshino Ai pursed her lips and muttered a few words, then as if she remembered something, she raised her head and spoke to Beichuan Ryo on the side:

"Oh, right! Didn't Liang just take a shower? I'll use the bathroom first. Can Liang come to my house and help me take off my clothes?"

"I just got it for you yesterday. It's on schedule. It's the first episode!"

"alright."

Beichuan Liang smiled when he heard this, and prepared to go out without any hesitation.

"Safe travels."

"The straight-line distance is less than 500 meters..."

"You have to be careful then."

Hoshino Ai replied this, and only walked into the bathroom leisurely after seeing Kitagawa Ryo close the door and leave.

Among the many urban legends in Japan, there is a saying that a family shares a bathtub for bathing. However, after traveling through time, Kitagawa Ryo learned that bathing here is divided into two parts: showering and soaking in the bath. Generally speaking, one would wash the body in the shower first before entering the bathtub to enjoy the bathing service. Therefore, sharing a bathtub is actually considered bathing water, and it would not be the case that the later you bathe, the dirtier the water will be, as he had imagined before.

Hoshino Ai first rinsed her body under the shower head in front, and after washing it with shower gel and shampoo, she finally moved her body contentedly into the high-end bathtub that was already filled with water and kept at just the right temperature.

She stretched out comfortably in the two-person bathtub.

"It's Not My Fault That I'm Not Popular" was broadcast in the autumn season of this year and ended around the end of December.

According to her and Kitagawa Ryo's plan, they will release the news that they are in love and planning a wedding during the New Year next year.

As for the specific wedding date, the initial plan is to hold it in the middle of next year.

Her own company, Ichigo Pro, doesn't have to worry, after all, the company president, Saito Ichigo, will never stop her from doing this. Rather, it can be said that in the many times she and Kitagawa Ryo have performed together over the years, the other party has also been supporting her from behind.

The only thing that worries Hoshino Ai is Burning Production, to which Kitagawa Ryo belongs. Just as Kitagawa Rumi imagined, it is unlikely that the company will allow its top artists, whose careers are obviously still on the rise, to announce their love affairs or even marriage news at this time.

However, Beichuan Liang told her not to worry. From what he said, it seemed that he planned to lead the management team to leave the original agency and set up his own personal agency.

It doesn't matter even if I have to pay an astonishing amount of liquidated damages.

When Hoshino loves someone, she earns enough money to last her two lifetimes. In other words, it is enough money for two people to last a lifetime.

What's more, Beichuan Liang's family background is even richer than hers.

"I love you."

Compared to that confession that didn't sound like a confession at all, this sentence is the most orthodox confession statement.

As if it was a practice in advance, Hoshino Ai whispered it a few more times.

Then, as if she felt terribly hot all over, Hoshino Ai stood up from the bathtub, made a splashing sound, and walked out of the bathtub alone.

The mirror on the bathroom sink was already covered with a layer of mist due to the steam rising from it, and Hoshino Ai used her hands to rub out streaks of light from it.

When she came to her senses, she had already scratched the names 'Liang' and 'Ai' densely on it, crisscrossing and reflecting her star-like, shy eyes.

"Ok?"

Lowering her head slightly, Hoshino Ai quickly discovered a pair of toothbrush holders placed side by side on the sink, the left one was sky blue and the right one was pink. They looked like the toiletries of Kitagawa Ryo and Kitagawa Rumi.

A strange desire suddenly came over her, and Hoshino Ai picked up the toothbrush and toothpaste on the left, which belonged to Kitagawa Ryo. When she was about to squeeze some toothpaste on it and pretend to brush her teeth, she suddenly saw the toothbrush on the right.

A familiar shade of orange.

That was the children's toothpaste from Morinaga that Kitagawa Ryo endorsed twelve years ago. Because of its amazing effect, the two parties later signed a long-term endorsement contract including ice cream, so it has been on sale all the time.

Although she was already past the age of using children's toothpaste, Hoshino Ai still took it out of Kitagawa Rumi's toothbrush holder with great interest. The familiar packaging and color brought her back to that day many years ago.

"Orange flavored toothpaste..."

With a nostalgic feeling, Hoshino Ai took a comfortable bath and then brushed her teeth happily.

"I got you the clothes."

Kitagawa Ryo's voice came from outside the bathroom door.

Just as Kitagawa Ryo put his clothes outside the bathroom, the door was pushed open from the inside. Before he could react, Hoshino Ai stood on tiptoe and breathed out to him, "Ha," like a child facing his parents who supervised him to brush his teeth every night.

"what?"

Beichuan Liang was completely at a loss and was a little confused.

“Orange flavor!”
