CHAPTER 467: CHAPTER 326: PLEASANT DAILY MOMENTS_2

"There are only city areas nearby, no orchards." Hanamaru Hanabi thought for a moment and said.

"Aei, it’s a supermarket, not an orchard." Chiaei said.

"But in a place with so much fruit, isn’t it basically an orchard?" Aei giggled and then stealthily carried a watermelon into the house.

Given her size, this watermelon, half her height, was indeed quite large.

It was hot outside, and the two little girls were sweating on their foreheads.

Hanamaru Hanabi wanted to help her: "Aei, let me help, okay?"

Aei answered irrelevantly: "Then tomorrow, can Hanabi sister take Aei and sister out?"

Hanamaru Hanabi looked at her little face, thought it over, and said: "Well, that’s Hanabi sister’s job... not really going out to play... but I suppose it’s okay..."

"The place where Hanabi sister works has so many sisters, and many brothers are sisters too!"

Aei meant that many brothers also wear sisters’ clothes.

Hanamaru Hanabi: "It’s not really a workplace... just helping out with some publicity work..."

"Is brother going too?" Chiaei asked.

"Yes, Sakura is Hanabi sister’s assistant, so he’ll be going too."

Aei looked at Hanamaru Hanabi while holding the watermelon: "Aei and sister will be bored at home, Hanabi sister, please let brother take us to play~"

Hanamaru Hanabi was never good at dealing with people being cute to her, especially little ones like Aei.

"Alright then, but you can’t run off, okay? Last time during the school outing, the teacher specifically told me you were running around everywhere."

"Okay."

Chiaei didn’t need to worry, she was very sensible.

Aei, on the other hand, was quirky and might come up with something unusual.

But that’s good, kids need to be lively.

Previously, Aei would always stare at a tree, watching the ants moving food underneath, motionlessly.

...

Uesugi Sakura took a shower in the bathroom; taking a shower early in the morning felt even more refreshing.

After washing his face with Hanabi’s facial cleanser, he dried his hair and casually picked a short-sleeved T-shirt before stepping out of the bathroom.

They say guys look most handsome after a shower, and from the way Hanamaru Hanabi was staring at him, it was probably true.

"What’s up?" Uesugi Sakura smiled at her.

"Ah, Aei said... she, she wants to go with us tomorrow." Hanamaru Hanabi’s voice had a slight stutter.

He was taller than her, such a tall and handsome boy, could he really turn into such a lazy orange cat?

Uesugi Sakura noticed Hanamaru Hanabi, her cheeks were very red, every time she blushed, she looked adorable.

Her actions and thoughts turned cautious.

"Taking them out to have fun is good too, speaking of which, it’s a pity we only got to see white wisteria flowers instead of the full bloom last time, and ended up in the hospital." Uesugi Sakura gradually approached, causing Hanamaru Hanabi to take a small step back unconsciously.

"Afraid?"

"Of, of course not....."

Aei initially wanted to use the bathroom, but upon seeing brother holding sister’s waist at the door, she curiously peeked over from the wall.

Uesugi Sakura’s body was fresh from the shower, his face very clean.

Before he came too close, Hanamaru Hanabi had already imagined him leaning in to kiss her, causing her heart to start pounding.

Uesugi Sakura detected her erratic heartbeat, understanding that seeing him had stirred her girlish feelings.

At that moment, she had the subtle emotion akin to a boy seeing a girl fresh out of the bath.

But Hanabi was a girl, so she just lowered her head, avoiding his gaze.

Uesugi Sakura pulled her closer by the waist, his hand snuck inside, understanding but still with a puzzled expression: "What’s wrong?"

"...Sakura... Nothing." Hanamaru Hanabi realized he was sticking closer, and her face turned even redder due to the ticklish feeling on her waist.

"Nothing, but why is your face red?" His hands gently stroked her soft waist.

"It’s all, all Sakura’s fault..." Hanamaru Hanabi wanted to move his hands away, but her hands had no strength, and her legs felt weak.

His hands were a bit annoying... but also very gentle and soft...

In any case, it was a strange feeling.

"How about I give Hana-chan a kiss? Didn’t get a chance for a good morning kiss today."

A handsome face, freshly showered and refreshed, a shy girl wanted to refuse, but secretly glanced at him from the corner of her eye, hesitating to speak.

She only mumbled her own name.

Without waiting for her reply, Uesugi Sakura cupped her silky waist, leaned in to capture her lips.

Resistance, relaxation, gentle...

The girl’s emotions went through such a simple process.

Little Aei spied on her brother and sister entwined for a long time from the wall corner, "Is kissing that nice?"

The feeling of kissing is indeed wonderful, temperature, breath, sweetness, all swirl in the closeness.

Uesugi Sakura hugged Hanamaru Hanabi tighter, thinking of the bits and pieces she did for him, her words telling him not to worry while standing in the rain, her reluctance when boarding the plane... with this sweet love, a moment turned eternal.

Recalling when she left for abroad, realizing how beautiful the simple, ordinary life was.

Without Hanabi’s smile by his side, even a mundane life wasn’t within reach; he’d just be a machine following a set track.

In holding her warmth, it felt remarkably beautiful... in the folds of her dreamy skirt, her silhouette reaching for the cherry blossoms, seemed to make past memories fade.

"Alright, let’s eat."

"Sakura... you’re so annoying..." she weakly said.

"Why am I annoying?"

"Just annoying."

"A baseless ’annoying,’ I’ll take as a form of pouting."

"Just annoying."

"The more you dislike, the more you like, right?"

"No, I’m not!"

"Alright, alright, I’m just helping Hana to be proactive, you see, you rarely kiss me first. If it happens less, won’t our feelings fade?"

"Sakura... if you just kiss, that’s fine... but your hands like to wander..."

"That’s an expression of love, if it were others, I wouldn’t also let them hold me."

"Really?"

"Really, I won’t lie to you."

"Many say, when boys are in love, they always coax and deceive."

"Who said that?"

"Books."

"Read fewer emotional books, there’s no problem with our feelings anyway."

"Hanabi even checked up on Sakura’s habit of randomly touching tummies."

"What did it say about me?"

"Said... Sakura is simply a pervert."

"Well, very honest, also quite accurate, but for them, for me, it’s not just about being a pervert at all." Uesugi Sakura finished speaking and sneaked a glance at her sexy waist, fine and full of curves.

"What else?" Hanamaru Hanabi asked.

"There’s affection and love in it too."

"No, Sakura is just purely a pervert."

"How can that be? Didn’t I help you rub your tummy when you had cramps? I even warmed my hands before giving warmth to your tummy."

"Even when I’m fine... you still touch...," Hanamaru Hanabi muttered.

"That’s just an extension of love, when my affection for you isn’t fully expressed, I have to continue next time."

"Sakura must be spouting nonsense."

"How could this be nonsense? Alright, let’s eat after a kiss, the watermelon Aei and the others bought should be cut already." Uesugi Sakura saw Hanabi kept calling him ’bad,’ so he changed the subject.

"Sakura hasn’t answered Hanabi’s question yet!"

"What question?" Uesugi Sakura stopped his foot that had just stepped out.

"Sakura... are you ’pervy’?"

"Yes, I am." Uesugi Sakura laughed, "You don’t know how attractive your little tummy is, so fragrant and white, soft, and sweet, with a light pink tint when tickled, I have a proposal, how about Hanabi wears a swimsuit and joins me for a bath tonight?"

"Bathing... why wear a swimsuit?"

Uesugi Sakura smiled: "You don’t get it, swimming doesn’t necessarily mean wearing a swimsuit, so why wear one? To cover up the important parts, if Hanabi wears a swimsuit and bathes with me, won’t you stop being shy?"

"Yeah... wearing a swimsuit with Sakura, I won’t be shy then... but no!"

Hanamaru Hanabi shook her head and looked at him, "Why does Hanabi have to bathe with Sakura... "

"I helped wash your back, staying together to wash the rest shouldn’t be a problem, right?"

Hanamaru Hanabi figured it out and muttered at his smiling face: "Sakura’s indeed a pervert!"
