Zongman, starting from childhood sweethearts under the snow

Although they shopped for a long time, they bought very little.

Except for Shizuka Hiratsuka who was carrying two exquisite shopping bags, Yukino and Kasumigaoka Utaha only carried one small bag each.

"Mei, when did you leave just now?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha stepped forward and asked her questions immediately.

Kato Megumi answered truthfully: "When you and Yukinoshita were arguing."

Originally, this was just a very ordinary answer, which should not attract anyone's attention. However, after she finished speaking, both she and Yu Amamiya found something wrong.

Both Kasumigaoka Utaha and Yukino looked a little strange.

This is especially true for Shizuka Hiratsuka.

She blushed almost instantly, turned her head away in embarrassment, and didn't dare to look at Yu Amemiya and the others.

"What happened to you?" Yu Yu asked curiously.

Xue Noi looked disgusted: "I don't want to say it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled teasingly: "If Mr. Hiratsuka agrees, I can tell you."

So Amemiya Yu and Kato Megumi shifted their gaze at the same time.

Shizuka Hiratsuka felt that everyone was looking at her, so she had to bite the bullet and look up: "I'll tell you later, I won't tell you now."

"What's the difference between what you said and 'I'll definitely do it next time'?" Yu Amamiya expressed his displeasure.

Shizuka Hiratsuka's cheeks burned hot, and she clutched the shopping bag in embarrassment. "I've already told you guys I'll tell you later, so don't ask me, Amamiya!"

Then she quickly added, "I'll treat you to a nice dinner tonight."

Amemiya chuckled and deliberately looked at Yukino and the others: "Can a big meal buy us off?"

Yukino knew what he meant, but was too lazy to cooperate.

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled in tacit understanding and said, "At least three meals."

"make a deal!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka agreed without hesitation, she really didn't dare to continue the topic.

In her opinion, if even Yu Amemiya knew about the misunderstanding just now, the other party would definitely laugh at her for a long time to come.

She believes that Yu Amemiya can do it!

The most terrifying thing is that he has seen my entire body. If these two things are combined, will I be able to see him again in the future? Will I be able to eat with him for free?

In order to pay the "hush money", Shizuka Hiratsuka chose a high-end restaurant in the evening. Just by looking at the magnificent first-floor lobby, you can guess that the consumption here is very high.

"Thank you for the expense, Mr. Hiratsuka." Yukino and Kato Megumi were both serious.

"Please continue to spend money, Mr. Hiratsuka." Amemiya Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha had a bad taste.

Shizuka Hiratsuka rolled her eyes and muttered, "Never mind. Just consider it a reward for myself on Christmas Eve. It's a holiday after all."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Yukino and Kasumigaoka Utaha changed at the same time.

Compared to Christmas Eve, which they don’t care much about, Christmas is what they care about.

Kato Megumi was the calmest.

Because she noticed the date when she was looking at her phone earlier.

Chapter 190: Kasumi Hill: Covered by Veil

Shizuka Hiratsuka was very generous with this dinner.

After Yu Amemiya and the others told her to order the food herself, she ordered a lot of expensive dishes in one go, and finally asked for a bottle of sake and some drinks.

Xueno wanted to remind her to drink less alcohol, but she felt a hand pulling her under the table.

When Yukino turned around, she saw Kasumigaoka Utaha winking at her and silently mouthing: Christmas.

At first, Yukino didn't understand. It wasn't until the food was served and Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't taste the food but took a sip of sake first that she finally reacted.

Are older single women reminded of the past?

Yukino had heard some rumors about Shizuka Hiratsuka's failed blind date, but since it was her private matter and she herself didn't like this kind of gossip, she didn't confirm it.

And now, Shizuka Hiratsuka took a sip of the wine and her eyes drifted away, obviously she was worried about something.

At this moment, Kasumigaoka Utaha's gentle voice came to my ears: "Mr. Hiratsuka is probably thinking about men."

Xue No: “…”

If possible, I would like you to use a more elegant description.

She raised her hand to push Kasumigaoka Utaha away and no longer mentioned the topic of how alcohol is bad for the body.

Since she is still single at such an old age, and it happens to be Christmas when couples can be seen everywhere, you should stop saying things that will spoil the fun.

Yukino thought about it for a moment. Shizuka Hiratsuka had said before that there would be several female colleagues accompanying them this time, which meant that this should be considered a "single women's trip."

However, if a group of older single women get together to celebrate Christmas and drink alcohol, the scene will probably be very troublesome.

The corners of Yukino's lips curled up slightly, and when she looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka again, her eyes softened a lot.

[Being with this group of younger people like me, she shouldn't be too sad about not getting married at her age.]

Yukino nudged Amemiya Yu on her right with her elbow, and when the latter turned around, she signaled with her eyes to Hiratsuka Shizuka who was drinking alone.

Amemiya Yu nodded in understanding, raised his glass to Hiratsuka Shizuka and said with a smile, "Teacher Hiratsuka, are you interested in playing a game with us?"

"what game?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka, who originally felt lonely, immediately felt relieved of some of her negative emotions after hearing these words.

Yu Amamiya pointed at the food on the table and said, "Since we're at the table and there's wine, the most suitable game is Truth or Dare."

Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly waved her hands: "No, no, I'm not good at playing this kind of game."

I already had a big adventure yesterday!

Another adventure today.

If I come for the third time and cause another misunderstanding, how will I end it?

"Really? What a pity." Amemiya Yu pretended to be regretful.

After being interrupted by him, Shizuka Hiratsuka stopped being emo and started talking to him about other things.

Kasumigaoka Utaha tacitly interrupted the topic, and Yukino and Kato Megumi would occasionally join in the conversation, and the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became pleasant.

While Amemiya Yu was eating, he secretly looked at Yukino to ask for praise: How did I do?

Yukino responded with a faint smile: Not bad.

At least, the atmosphere became something I liked.

After dinner, Yu Amemiya and his friends went out to enjoy the scenery on the street with Shizuka Hiratsuka, and they didn't go back to their rooms until after eight o'clock in the evening.

On the girls' side, Yukino had just sat down when she heard Kato Megumi say, "Amamiya hopes we go to bed early tonight, otherwise we won't have enough energy to go back tomorrow."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was taking out her underwear from her bag and preparing to take a bath when she heard these words.

She couldn't hold it in and laughed, "What a clumsy way to change the subject."

"It's indeed very clumsy." Yukino also agreed.

If you let the girl you like go to bed early on Christmas, if you are not stupid, it means you are going to cause trouble.

The three girls in the room obviously understood this.

"So we might be able to see Santa Claus tonight?" Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't know what she was thinking about, and the smile in her eyes widened.

Yukino hesitated for a moment. "If that's his style, he might actually prepare Santa Claus costumes in advance."

Kato Megumi, who was originally playing with her phone, had her eyes slightly lit up: "Yukinoshita, are you sure?"

"No." Yukino shook her head. She wouldn't check Yu Amemiya's luggage.

Kasumigaoka Utaha also became interested and no longer rushed to take a bath. She simply sat down and said, "I just recalled that his suitcase is not very big, but if it is only used to put a few clothes and props, there will definitely be no problem."

When Xue Noi heard her words, she guessed that she was about to make a move: "Don't tell me you want to sneak over and check his luggage?"

"Why not?" Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled.

Kato Megumi suddenly said: "If Shiyu-senpai really does this, then the Christmas gift will lose its surprise and mystery."

Yukino looked over with appreciation: "Although I have never been interested in this kind of festival, Kato is right."

Seeing the two of them suddenly united as one, Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled, "Who can't talk? Yukinoshita, do you need me to help you remember that men's wallet you bought alone at the mall this morning?"

Yukino said casually, "I'm not really interested in festivals, but Yuu and I have exchanged gifts on festivals over the years. Do you understand, Senior?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's smile froze, and she felt like she was being covered by a veil.

You and I have exchanged gifts over the years.

These are all keywords that show off.

But Yukino spoke so calmly, as if in her eyes, this was something not worth mentioning.

It is precisely this insignificance that can cause a critical blow to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Her chest kept rising and falling, and her beautiful face slowly sank. "Thank you for your explanation. You also made me understand that the most outstanding Yukinoshita Yukino, whom Hiratsuka-sensei called, also has a childish and showy side."

The corners of Yukino's mouth curled up: "Are you angry, senior?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sneered and did not answer.

Xue Noi's smile became even more charming. She even nodded her head deliberately, as if to conclude: "It seems that the defense has been broken."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Yukinoshita!"

Kato Megumi sat quietly aside, thinking that even though she didn't add fuel to the fire, the two of them were already arguing like this. What would happen if she added more fuel to the fire?

She immediately discarded the idea.

Because the ending is destined, either Kasumigaoka Utaha will be captured by Yukino, or she will be hit so hard that her defense collapses.

[The senior's jealous expression is quite funny, but it's a pity it's not convenient to take a photo.]

Kato Megumi glanced at her bag, where she also had a gift she had prepared.

After a while, Kasumigaoka Utaha stood up with a sullen look on her face, staring down at Yukino who was leisurely reading a book: "Want to take a bath together?"

"No." Yukino said bluntly.

Kasumigaoka Utaha said expressionlessly, "I have something important to discuss with you."

Yukino closed the book and looked up, her eyes calm but murderous: "You want to show off your figure to me again while taking a bath with me."

Kasumigaoka Utaha puffed out her chest imperceptibly, her voice light and airy: "Do I need to show off?"

Only then did Yukino realize that the other party really had something to tell her, and she immediately stood up to get her underwear.

Kato Megumi looked at the screen of her mobile phone and murmured to herself: Am I excluded again?

Chapter 191 Gift

The steam rising from the bathroom condensed into water droplets on the white marble wall, falling down in lines, eventually revealing two figures in the large amount of hot air.

The bathtub was not very big, and after Yukino and Kasumigaoka Utaha sat down face to face, there was only a little space left in the entire bathtub.

Yukino leaned comfortably against the bathtub, her voice flat: "Can you tell me now? You specially invited me to take a bath instead of going to the hot spring to avoid Kato?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha answered both questions directly: "Yes, I think the topic we want to talk about should not be known to Hui."

"Aren't you good friends?" Xueno said with a half-smile.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was choked and looked away to ease the awkwardness: "We can talk about this later."

"Okay." Yukino didn't pursue.

Kasumigaoka Utaha took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Do you think what Mr. Hiratsuka said during the day made sense?"

Yukino's originally happy expression froze slightly. After a second, she asked in a subtle tone, "Senior, are you going to show me your bad taste again? Or are you really planning to pursue me like Mr. Hiratsuka said?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's face darkened. "Could you please stop making such silly jokes?"

"Then you should just say it directly."
