In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight streamed into the Komore Teahouse.
A beautiful and harmonious day was about to begin.
Creak—
Accompanied by the gentle opening of a door, a girl's lazy yawn echoed.
"Hmm, I can't slack off."
"I must give Master a gentle good morning gift."
Her gentle voice chuckled, as if giving herself encouragement.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something else and sighed softly.
"...Before anyone else."
The next moment, a pair of fair, delicate, jade-like feet emerged.
They were perfect works of art, reflecting a warm, jade-like luster in the sunlight.
They could be admired from afar but not profaned.
Of course, the only one in this world who was qualified...
Was probably still fast asleep.
"..."
The elegant young lady walked into the corridor, tilting her head.
Her silver hair cascaded to her waist, slightly disheveled.
Having just woken up, she hadn't yet washed up.
Kamisato Ayaka, the young lady of the Yashiro Commission.
She blinked her beautiful eyes, her gaze sweeping across the corridor.
Finally, a smile bloomed.
"It seems Ayaka has secured the advantage today."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled and took out a set of keys.
My Master, locking his door indeed blocks out other bad women.
But... it won't stop the owner of Komore Teahouse, your obedient and adorable disciple.
"Let's give you a surprise."
The girl hummed a tune, in good spirits.
As she walked gracefully, she was like a little white rabbit searching for food.
Then, this little white rabbit passed by...
The White Rabbit's room.
"?"
Kamisato Ayaka noticed the slightly ajar door and frowned slightly.
This was the room of her long-time best friend, Yoimiya.
"Still so careless."
She shook her head, intending to gently close Yoimiya's door for her.
But...
The memory of last night suddenly surged back.
A shadow of darkness flickered in her eyes.
Yoimiya's unusual behavior, and Master...
"It's impossible."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled, showing absolute trust in her best friend.
As she spoke, she gently opened the door and walked in.
"Click."
She shut the door behind her.
...
Kamisato Ayaka came to Yoimiya's side.
There was nothing much to see in the small room, only the girl sleeping carelessly.
Her pink little belly was exposed; she wondered if she would catch a cold.
"Hehe... hehehe..."
Yoimiya mumbled in her sleep, hugging a pillow.
Looking at her slightly upturned lips, she was clearly having a pleasant dream.
"..."
Kamisato Ayaka leaned down, brushed a strand of hair from her ear, and listened closely.
"Ayaka is next door."
"Don't let her hear, okay."
Yoimiya turned over, hugging the pillow and nuzzling it.
"?"
Kamisato Ayaka's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on her face faded a little.
She looked at her best friend, who had fallen asleep without even changing her clothes after playing all night, and fell into thought.
Her gaze involuntarily shifted to Yoimiya's...
It had to be said, it was enviable.
This size was far beyond the comprehension of ordinary girls.
"Huh?"
Kamisato Ayaka sensed something was wrong.
The bandages that her good friend usually wore... where were they?
Had Yoimiya taken them off herself?
"..."
Or perhaps?
...
Kamisato Ayaka walked out of Yoimiya's room.
She was still humming a tune.
She directly opened Qin Yu's room door.
"This time, you won't escape."
Kamisato Ayaka thought to herself, while looking at a certain spot.
"Hoo... hoo..."
On the bed, the handsome young man smacked his lips.
It was indeed Qin, sleeping soundly.
"Heh."
Kamisato Ayaka's eyes softened.
She stood quietly at the doorway, making no move for a long time.
Being able to privately enjoy Master's sleeping face in this quiet place seemed nice too.
"It seems Master is really tired."
The elegant young lady approached Qin Yu and knelt down gently.
He didn't even notice her.
She gazed at Qin Yu's face and slowly reached out her hand to touch it.
She had intended to lean down and rest in Qin Yu's embrace.
But... someone was already nestled on him.
It was indeed the little angel Nahida.
"?"
Kamisato Ayaka's eyes flickered.
She seemed to be resting very well with Master.
"Hoo... stay calm, Ayaka."
Kamisato Ayaka closed her eyes slightly, calming herself.
Even if she wanted to ask Master a question, it shouldn't be in front of Nahida.
"Mmm... everyone..."
Suddenly, a murmuring sound arose.
Qin Yu, who had been quiet and still, flicked out a hand.
A white streak cut through the air.
"!"
Kamisato Ayaka's eyes slowly widened.
In her trembling gaze, she saw the mysterious bandage clutched in Qin Yu's hand.
"That couldn't be Yoimiya's...!"
In that instant, many thoughts flashed through her mind.
Kamisato Ayaka lowered her head and bit her lip.
"Master, why?"
"Clearly... Ayaka came first."
The darkness in her eyes was about to materialize.
She gently pried Qin Yu's hand open and took the bandage.
Since that's the case...
"Mmm?"
Just then, Nahida, who had been sleeping quietly, stirred.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and she woke up.
After Qin Yu moved one hand, the warmth was significantly reduced.
"Brother Qin Yu..."
Nahida rubbed her eyes and pushed herself up.
"Mmm."
She noticed Kamisato Ayaka's presence.
The latter was gently and thoughtfully wrapping the bandage around Qin Yu's wrist.
And tying a knot.
"Sister Ayaka? What are you doing?"
Nahida blinked her innocent, pure eyes and asked in confusion.
She was surprised that an older sister had come so early.
But this emotion wasn't quite right.
"It's nothing, Nahida."
Kamisato Ayaka tilted her head and smiled gently.
She ruffled Nahida's small head and smiled, saying:
"Sister Ayaka just wants to play a little game with your Brother Qin Yu."
"What new game is it?"
Nahida asked curiously, kindly loosening her other arm from Qin Yu.
The wise little Dendro Archon did not understand.
Why would they need bandages to play a little game?
To understand these things, she also wanted to join.
"Will this bring happiness?"
"Of course."
Kamisato Ayaka looked at Qin Yu, whose hands were now bandaged, and let out a satisfied chuckle.
Now, you won't escape.
She patted Qin Yu's face.
"Hmm?"
Qin Yu, still in a daze, felt someone calling him and slowly opened his eyes.
"Good morning, Master."
In his sight was the elegant and obedient girl, watching him with a gentle smile.
"?"
Qin Yu blinked in surprise, then a smile appeared.
As expected of his obedient and adorable disciple.
Just as he was about to sit up to greet her, his expression suddenly changed.
His hands were... immobile.
He tried to exert force, but felt a restraint.
"Wait a minute, could this be!"
Qin realized something and his sleepiness vanished completely.
"Heh heh... good morning, Master."
Kamisato Ayaka's lips curved slightly, her demeanor elegant and gentle.
"Are you hungry? Does Ayaka need to prepare breakfast?"
"Or..."
Kamisato Ayaka pressed down on Master's shoulder.
In her dark eyes, his bewildered face was reflected.
"Shall we have something special first?"
