"Ugh—!"
Inside the small cabin.
Qin Yu's eyes snapped open, all sleepiness gone.
He hadn't expected that his brand new day would be met with…
His gentle and obedient best disciple—Kamisato Ayaka.
But, on top of him.
Such an act filled Qin Yu with indignation.
As Ayaka grew, had this day finally arrived?
Betraying one's master, this was absolutely betraying one's master!
Wait, why couldn't his legs move either...?
Qin Yu realized something was wrong and looked down.
"Brother Qin Yu?"
However, waiting for him was the white-haired loli sitting beside him, looking innocent.
Nahida was blinking her curious big eyes, observing Qin Yu and Kamisato Ayaka.
Indeed, she had also helped just now, tying Qin Yu's legs.
And speaking of which, under the guidance of her mother, Lesser Lord Kusanali.
Mother and daughter, as goddesses of wisdom, with a rigorous approach, had tried many ways of tying.
"Nahida, what have you done?!"
Qin Yu was shocked and even more helpless.
Why did the heartwarming and body-warming white-haired loli always betray him at crucial moments?
If this continued, he'd have to call for Lesser Lord Kusanali's mother to lecture her!
"Brother Qin Yu, Nahida just wants to play a new game with you."
Nahida swayed her body, her small face expectant.
"???"
Qin Yu looked at Nahida, then at the kind-smiling Kamisato Ayaka.
A new game?
This was far more stimulating than any game!
"Master, struggling is useless."
Kamisato Ayaka chuckled softly, pursing her cherry lips.
The scene she had imagined countless times seemed to be overlapping with the present.
This time, she had finally found the opportunity to defeat her master.
Then, the reward for victory would be…
"Sister Nahida, can I trouble you to get something?"
Kamisato Ayaka directly sent the little angel away with a truce card.
"Mm."
Nahida looked at Qin Yu and nodded in agreement.
The gentle little angel decided to leave them space for their whispered conversation.
Qin Yu: ?
He had been abandoned again!
"Ayaka, let's talk properly."
Qin Yu decided to stabilize Kamisato Ayaka for now, ignoring the misguided white-haired loli.
Stop your dangerous thoughts!
Just as Qin Yu was about to try to break free with all his might.
Kamisato Ayaka saw his intention and leaned down preemptively.
She knew, of course, that a small bandage couldn't hold her master.
So, she whispered in Qin Yu's ear:
"Master, could you explain..."
"Why is there a white bandage in your room?"
"And you were holding it in your hand."
"!!!"
Qin Yu's body trembled, and he opened his mouth.
Oh no, Ayaka saw it!
"Ayaka, I...!"
Caught red-handed, Qin Yu was speechless.
How could it be that he was caught by his own best friend's good friend!
"Master, Ayaka doesn't need you to explain anything."
Kamisato Ayaka shook her head.
She leaned gently into Qin Yu's embrace, listening to his rapid, powerful heartbeat.
A look of satisfaction appeared, her cheeks flushed.
It was her master's scent.
"!"
Qin Yu blinked frantically.
Ayaka, could you untie me first, and then…
"Heh heh… Master, be good."
Kamisato Ayaka saw Qin Yu give up resisting and a meaningful arc curved her lips.
Their heartbeats quickened with their inner desires.
Master, we have spent enough time together.
Ayaka didn't want to wait any longer.
"Next, it's time for our good morning dessert."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled slightly and gently cupped Qin Yu's face.
"Now, it's just the two of us."
In her eyes, like autumn water, ripples appeared.
She was about to become a rebellious disciple who turned against her master.
"..."
Qin Yu blinked.
His good disciple's filial piety had long since turned sour.
With his hands tied, he couldn't resist, or rather, he didn't want to resist at all.
Who could refuse such an elegant and charming maiden?
"Good morning."
Kamisato Ayaka closed her eyes and slowly lowered her head.
"Chu."
The elegant eldest daughter of the Kamisato family gently sealed her master's lips.
Qin Yu, thank you.
You appeared by my side when the Kamisato clan was in decline and Ayaka needed security the most.
There will be a place for you in the Kamisato clan from now on.
A slightly cool sensation washed over him.
Qin Yu closed his eyes and savored this exquisite good morning dessert.
Quietly, he broke free from his restraints.
His hands gently embraced Kamisato Ayaka's soft waist in response.
"...!"
Kamisato Ayaka's beautiful eyelashes trembled slightly.
There was no turning back from this kiss.
But she had no regrets, only joy and satisfaction.
Everything felt so natural.
The kiss was exceptionally long.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Just as Kamisato Ayaka was slightly breathless and gradually losing the initiative.
Steady footsteps sounded from the corridor outside.
"Ayaka should be here."
"I'll wait for her to wake up outside."
A voice muttered from outside the door.
The current Yashiro Commissioner, the head of the Kamisato clan.
Kamisato Ayaka's forever good brother.
—Kamisato Ayato.
"!"
The air instantly froze.
The embracing young man and woman both stiffened.
Their hearts, which had been warming up, suddenly cooled.
Their lips parted, and a crystalline thread traced a line through the air.
Kamisato Ayaka turned her face away, her cheeks flushed.
Why were you so proficient?
Qin Yu released Kamisato Ayaka, feeling a bit guilty.
The brother-in-law had arrived at just the right time.
Why did it always have to be him and Ayaka...
"..."
Kamisato Ayaka's gaze darkened as she slowly looked towards the door.
Brother, you are such a nuisance.
Qin Yu inexplicably felt a chill.
Brother-in-law, danger.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
From outside the door, Nahida's gentle voice inquired.
...
The morning sun grew warmer.
The ladies of the Komore Teahouse would also be waking up.
"Haha... It's Ayato-bro, what a surprise."
Qin Yu walked out of the cabin and greeted him.
Nahida returned to his side, her smile warm.
For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity with Kamisato Ayato.
"Qin Yu, what is this...?"
Kamisato Ayato raised an eyebrow, looking at Qin Yu who had directly slung an arm around his shoulder.
When did this kid become so enthusiastic?
Something's not right, there's a problem.
"Long time no see, just want to chat about life and dreams."
Qin Yu smiled and tried to pull him outside.
Get away from this place of trouble quickly!
"..."
Behind Kamisato Ayato, the elegant and beautiful maiden quietly stepped out of the room.
"?"
Nahida blinked.
"..."
Kamisato Ayaka shook her head, half of her body leaning out.
Qin Yu's face still held a sunny smile as he changed the subject.
Faster, faster.
As long as they reached that place…!
In Qin Yu's shining eyes, the light of victory was reflected.
Yes, orange-red.
Wait, orange-red??
"Mmm… Good morning, Ayaka."
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, Yoimiya walked out, yawning.
She blinked her eyes and asked, confused.
It's over.
Qin Yu, instantly petrified.
"?"
Kamisato Ayato turned his head and saw his good sister about to emerge from Qin Yu's room.
The air fell silent.
"??"
Kamisato Ayato's gaze suddenly shifted to Qin Yu, his smile warm.
*Slap.*
He proactively patted Qin Yu's shoulder.
"Explain?"
Qin Yu's forehead beaded with sweat, he had messed up again.
"Ahem… I…"
"Your sister… is quite good."
Kamisato Ayato: ???
Thoma, where's my knife!
