"This pair of siblings, really too shameless," Terumi Mei, who understood the relationship between the two, quickly guessed the truth.
She understood what the so-called white porridge was.
She couldn't help but secretly spit in her heart.
But then she thought of that scene, and her face suddenly turned red.
'That thing… is there really that much of it?'
'Isn't it said that the things in books are all lies?'
'How can one even be full from that…'
Terumi Mei kept having wild thoughts in her heart.
She even forgot to control the expression on her face.
Aoba and Yugao looked at Terumi Mei, who for a while looked indignant, and for a while looked shy, and both guessed that she might have guessed something.
Aoba was extremely calm, while Yugao, although trying her best to remain calm, those earlobes that looked like they were about to drip blood already betrayed her.
She fiercely glared at Aoba, if it weren't for his's energy being so vigorous early in the morning, how would such an embarrassing situation have happened.
Moreover, she indeed felt that something wasn't quite right.
She remembered clearly that the two had done it for quite a long time.
Although she had been a bit dazed at that time, her consciousness somewhat blurred, unable to tell the time clearly, or how many times Aoba had finished, she still could feel it. That many times, if the time was short, it simply wasn't normal.
Aoba was definitely lying.
But since he wasn't telling her now, there must be some problem.
Then she would just act as if she didn't know anything, but from now on, if there were people at home, in the morning they definitely couldn't do such a thing again.
Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.
Aoba noticed Yugao's look, scratched his head, and said to Terumi Mei, "After breakfast, want to go out for a walk?"
Terumi Mei snapped back to her senses upon hearing this, but the look she gave Aoba was still a bit evasive, "Wait till your two little girlfriends come then we will go."
"They're not coming today," Aoba answered her question.
"Hmm?", Terumi Mei stared at Aoba in surprise, "You… what do you mean?"
"Sakura and others are resting today, so if you want to go out, it'll just be me accompanying you alone," As soon as Aoba finished speaking, Terumi Mei's eyes lit up.
She glanced at Yugao beside her again, and found that Yugao's expression hadn't changed much, tacitly agreeing to this matter.
She immediately got up, grabbed Aoba's hand, and walked toward the outside, "Let's set off now!"
"Wait! I haven't finished my breakfast yet," Aoba looked at the still considerable amount of ramen left, at least let him finish the noodles.
"Who told you to eat so slowly, you can eat outside later too," Terumi Mei didn't give him this chance.
Yugao watched the two leave and could only sigh.
Although a bit annoyed, in this situation, staying alone in the same room would be even more awkward.
After a moment of silence, she began to clean up the dishes on the table.
Only as she was washing the dishes, the knocking sound came again.
"Wait, coming right away," Yugao opened the door.
"Kurotsuchi?"
Standing at the door was Kurotsuchi in new clothes.
"Yugao-neesan," Kurotsuchi also greeted politely. Yugao had just made her delicious ramen yesterday. Calling her neesan was no problem.
"Uh… you're here to look for Aoba?", Yugao asked in confusion.
'Didn't Aoba tell this girl?'
"Mm! I'm here today to challenge him too!", Kurotsuchi showed a confident and bright smile.
"This… Aoba and Terumi Mei just left not long ago, I'm afraid you can't challenge him now," Yugao showed an apologetic smile.
"Wh-what?"
The smile on Kurotsuchi's face instantly froze.
"If you really want to challenge Aoba, you can wait till they come back this afternoon then come," Yugao advised her.
But Kurotsuchi's eyes were dull, like a pitiful soul who had made an appointment but was suddenly abandoned by a good friend.
"Sigh…", Yugao could only complain about Aoba a few times in her heart, "You come in first."

"Aoba-kun, this is tasty, you try it too."
[Shopping Street]
Aoba and Terumi Mei were holding hands.
Terumi Mei was holding a skewer of dumplings she had already bitten into and handed it in front of Aoba's eyes.
He looked at the place Terumi Mei had bitten, but didn't mind, and bit down.
'Just a little saliva, later probably going to eat more anyway.'
From height, the two looked like a pair of siblings, but the feeling they gave was completely different.
Terumi Mei's face carried a childlike excitement and anticipation.
While Aoba always maintained calmness.
Aoba glanced at the small hand that Terumi Mei was tightly holding his with. Thought about it, and still didn't shake it off.
Terumi Mei's hand was soft, the feeling of being held was quite comfortable.
But now his hand was being held by her, so along the way when they encountered any tasty thing, basically it was Terumi Mei who personally fed it to his mouth.
Terumi Mei enjoyed this endlessly along the way, seeming even happier than usual. Seeing anything, buying anything.
Aoba was almost stuffed.
But looking at it this way, it did feel a bit like a couple.
All the way, Aoba noticed, the stores they visited today were all places they'd been to before.
Only before it was with a group of people, this time, only the two of them.
Seemed they'd been scouting the area all along.
Snacks, movies, delicacies, desserts, games.
These items that were essential for dates between young men and women, Terumi Mei led Aoba to experience them all.
And for Terumi Mei, who had never been in a relationship before and was an older leftover woman, she finally experienced once the daily life of a couple without anyone disturbing.
The smile on her face never stopped.
Aoba also enjoyed it.

[Evening]
The sun gradually slid toward the western horizon, the clouds at the edge of the sky were edged with dazzling gold, surrounding the setting sun.
The afterglow of the sunset shone on Konoha Village, and the surrounding trees were dyed golden.
"Aoba, do you like me?", Walking on the way home, looking at the beautiful scenery ahead, Terumi Mei showed a smile and murmured intoxicatedly.
Aoba beside her was briefly stunned after hearing this, and softly replied, "Yeah, I do."
The corners of Terumi Mei's mouth lifted higher, "I knew it, truly a greedy and lustful little brother."
Aoba didn't refute. This was also human nature.
"Really not coming to Kirigakure with neesan? As long as you're willing to come to Kirigakure, no matter how many little girlfriends you have, neesan can accept it," Terumi Mei turned her head and winked at Aoba.
Aoba couldn't help but laugh, "In Konoha, I'm a man who's going to become Hokage, if I go to Kiri, what can I become?"
"Isn't becoming the man of the Mizukage good enough?"
