"Hateful." Kasumigaoka Utaha blushed and slapped his hand away.
"It's strange that a senior would be shy."
Speaking of this, she leaned close to Natsume Rin's ear, and just when the boy thought it was a whisper, she ran away laughing.
It seems like his taste for evil is not weak at all.
Yukino and Shiina Mahiru, who were playing basketball not far away, looked over here at the same time, scolding the two with their eyes for not even being able to watch the game quietly.
"Sorry, sorry, shut up immediately." Kasumigaoka Utaha admitted defeat quickly, while Natsume Rin did not say anything, just quietly watching their graceful postures on the court.
It's July with warm sunshine, but today there's a rare breeze.
The trees beside the road rustled, and ripples appeared on Yukino's white tennis skirt.
When she jumped up to hit the ball, Natsume Rin seemed to see something very sacred, but then her eyes were blinded by the blue leggings.
"Isn't it pretty?"
Just as he was immersed in this sporty aesthetic, Kasumigaoka Utaha touched his shoulder with a mischievous smile on her face.
'No. '
He should have been tough on the outside, but he failed to overcome his inner self. He used actions to cover up his guilty conscience, rubbing the senior student's hair and scolding her for not doing her job properly.
"Zhengye? What is that?!"
Chapter 247 Idiot! Idiot!
After playing ball, Shiina Mahiru took a rest, the senior leaned against her to bask in the sun, and Natsume Rin stood by the tree thinking about life.
"So boring?" Yukino looked up at him.
"Nothing."
"Does not look like."
"I'm experiencing the beauty of nature. What does this have to do with boredom?"
Natsume Rin's voice got louder, Yukino laughed softly, and even the two people leaning against each other on the bench started laughing.
Everyone looks very happy.
After finishing their daily outdoor activities, they were planning their evening schedule. As the day of returning to Tokyo was getting closer, they became more active.
When I got home, the senior student slammed the table.
"Why not stay a few more days? There's still more than a week left before school starts."
This idea solves all the problems and can be regarded as a good plan to remove the root of the problem.
"No." Shiina Mahiru smiled faintly: "Don't look at me like that, it has nothing to do with the house, we just have something to deal with when we get back."
As a princess of the Shiina family, if she wants to keep her residence here, Shiina Chaoyang will definitely have no objection.
But she was still thinking about taking Natsume Rin home to see her father, so naturally she couldn't spend the entire vacation in the resort.
"That can't be helped." Kasumigaoka Utaha shrugged, "There are still two days left and we probably won't be able to finish all the big activities, so let's just continue to stroll around leisurely."
"This is the true meaning of vacation." Natsume Rin thought this was a good idea.
Today he was assigned a difficult task, which was to cook under the guidance of Shiina, and he was now busy preparing ingredients in the kitchen.
"It would be boring if I kept doing this. It would be great if I could try something more exciting."
Yukino wasn't very interested in the so-called better activities, and her attention was instead focused on the war taking place in the kitchen.
Although smart, Natsume Rin is not omnipotent. There are several aspects where he can never reach the level of ordinary people. The most obvious of these is his cooking skills.
He even thought about using the system to exchange for related skills, but as if to consolidate his character image in this area, the system had been refreshed nearly a hundred times, and nothing related to cooking had appeared.
"Are you planning to choke us to death by cutting this vegetable?"
"Oh my god, this is how you always wash rice when I asked you to?"
"Don't test the oil temperature with your hands, idiot!"
Shiina Mahiru wondered what kind of life Natsume Rin led before she met her, but when she heard him say that he had been getting by with discounted bento boxes, she suddenly understood, and the look in her eyes as she looked at him was filled with maternal radiance again.
poor child.
"Shiina-san." Yukino, who was leaning against the door, said slowly, "Before you sympathize with him, you should first clarify one important thing. He cooked our dinner."
She didn't want to eat Natsume Rin's self-indulgent experimental work and then not be able to criticize it.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Shiina Mahiru put her mind at ease and showed a warm smile to Natsume Rin: "Natsume-san, follow me and study. You will be fine soon."
Her original intention was to act pitiful and ask Shiina-san to help with cooking, but seeing her like this, Natsume Rin swallowed her saliva, feeling that things were developing completely different from what she had imagined.
Shiina Mahiru, who had been playing with her attitude when giving instructions before, has now become completely serious. Whenever Natsume Rin makes a mistake, she will receive her not-so-strict but very persistent persuasion.
After finally finishing the meal alone, Natsume Rin lay on the sofa, with Shiina Mahiru's reminders still echoing in her ears.
"You put too much salt." "The timing is wrong, and the meat should be cut into smaller pieces." "Turn off the fire quickly, and remember to turn on the range hood."
…How on earth does she manage to remember so many complicated things?
Natsume Rin felt a headache just thinking about it.
"The taste this time is surprisingly good." Yukinoshita Yukino, who had once been beaten up by his cooking skills, gave a high evaluation.
Although the taste still does not make people feel disgusted, it is a huge improvement compared to the past.
"Thank you for the compliment." Natsume Rin perked up and took the comments on her diet very seriously.
The senior had never experienced a comparison of cooking skills, so her feeling on the taste was not that strong, but with her simple ideas and the selling point that the meal was made by Natsume Rin herself, it was enough for her to give a high score.
"It seems that my cooking skills have improved a lot." Natsume Rin felt very proud in her heart.
At this time, it was the turn of Yukino, who usually liked to criticize him, to appear. After giving a detailed account of the time and effort Shiina Mahiru had put in, she confirmed a fact in a long tone.
"Use it to direct your energy, it will be enough for Shiina-san to make better food."
After all, he is a novice, so it is normal that he cannot beat the teacher. But since she said so, Natsume Rin still looked at Shiina Mahiru lovingly.
"Thank you Shiina-san."
"It's okay." She blushed and waved her hand to tell him not to worry about such a small matter. "I'm actually very happy to guide Natsume-san."
Look at people.
Natsume Rin provoked Yukino with her eyes, if she didn't have such a broad mind, why would she be an archangel.
"Because I never thought there would be so many stupid mistakes."
"Pfft." Yukino couldn't help it and covered her mouth and looked at Natsume Rin with sympathy.
The following discussion gradually deviated from the main topic.
Natsume Rin wanted to settle the score with Shiina Mahiru who was deliberately making trouble. She raised her hands and innocently showed that she was telling the truth, but the more she did this, the angrier Natsume Rin became.
"You two, don't disturb me while I'm eating." The senior student, who was still concentrating on the task at hand, looked at them back and forth.
"No, I must ask her to give me an explanation."
"Oh, what can I say about this? After all, this is the first time I've seen an idiot measuring the oil temperature with his hands."
While strolling outside at night, she was still emphasizing this matter, and felt that she could still laugh at Natsume Rin for many years.
"I was just kidding." He insisted, "How could anyone do such a stupid thing?"
"Rin Natsume, a student in Class 1, Grade 2 of General Affairs High School, has done it. Her specific home address is at Yotsuya 3-chome, Shinjuku-ku." Shiina Mahiru did not give the exact house number because she lived next door.
"I think you deserve a beating." Natsume, who was 'angry and embarrassed', reached out to grab her, but the smart girl dodged by jumping, made a face, and ran towards the nearby lights.
Their ways and means of flirting are becoming more and more diverse, which makes Kasumigaoka Utaha admire the creativity of this couple. At the same time, she is also thinking about how to create beautiful memories of their own with Natsume Rin.
Chapter 248 Wedding
There are still forty-eight hours before returning to Tokyo.
Natsume Rin's grand plan, or conspiracy, has reached the point where it is ready to be launched. If it is not started, all efforts will be in vain.
So under extremely difficult circumstances, he used his money and his eloquence to finally gather enough people.
It's a very simple thing in Tokyo because it's in such a wealthy area, so you have to see if the other party is interested to find some people.
"Yukinoshita-san." Natsume Rin, who was constantly directing the stable progress of various activities through her mobile phone, looked at Yukino who was reading a book opposite her.
"Ok?"
"Do you have time now?"
Yukino looked up out the window. It was about seven o'clock in the evening. Shiina Mahiru took the curious senior to watch an opera nearby, leaving only the two of them at home.
"What are you going to do?" After reading for the whole afternoon, Yukino was surprised to find that time passed so quickly. She stretched to relieve her tiredness.
"How about going out for a walk?" Natsume Rin also put down what he was holding and walked to the door.
After staying in the room for the entire afternoon, Yukino thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement. Although she felt that he might have a conspiracy, Yukino was not worried.
Letting him wait for a while, she went back to the room and changed her clothes. Considering the temperature at night, when Yukino appeared again, she was wearing long sleeves.
"Let's go." She didn't take the hand that Natsume Rin extended, but walked past him quietly.
Perhaps because it indicates that summer is coming to an end and the resort is about to enter a long off-season, activities have been frequent these days, and most of the road lights are on until the early morning.
They walked along the road that they had gradually become familiar with during these days, and at the end of the road was the sea that Shiina Mahiru had mentioned in her original promotion.
In fact, it is an area adjacent to Tokyo Bay. Due to the poor terrain, it is troublesome to go out to sea, so the scenery of lake sightseeing was created in a unique way.
“I heard that the scenic spot intends to build an outlet to the sea.”
Listening to the last chirping of summer cicadas, a bonfire burning on the beach not far away, and the gentle sea breeze blowing on the face, Natsume Rin looked at the profile of the girl next to her and said softly.
"Yeah." Yukino responded coldly, "It's actually unlikely to happen. Even if it happens, we won't be able to see it then."
"How can we not see it?" Natsume Rin said, "Wouldn't it be nice if everyone could come here again to escape the summer heat at this time next year?"
This is Natsume Rin's true thought from the bottom of his heart. He hopes that everything can remain the same as it was.
We can still play together like this, no matter what trouble we encounter, it is not a problem.
Yukinoshita Yukino looked at him with a beautiful smile on her face.
