Chapter 431: Children who act like spoiled children have the best fate
After standing silently at the door for a while, a faint cloud unconsciously appeared on Ikeha Shizuka's beautiful face.
"These young people..."
Ikebo Jinghua spat softly in her heart, shook her head, turned around and prepared to leave.
At this moment, a heavy sound of collision was heard from the house.
What followed was Hanyu Kusunoki's whisper with a hint of teasing.
"Little Junior Sister, even if you scream until your throat hurts, Master won't come to save you!"
The voice was very soft, but extremely clear, as if the person speaking was very close.
This was indeed the case. The two people who were fighting in the house were leaning against the door.
The three masters and apprentices were separated by only a door.
Now, Ikeba Jinghua was holding the plate, standing there, not knowing whether to leave or not. Her beautiful eyebrows were deeply frowned, forming the Chinese character "川".
If she leaves now, it will definitely make some noise. At such a close distance, people inside will definitely hear it. Then, as their master, she would become an eavesdropper.
Thinking of this, she hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to remain motionless.
How long can young people's fights last?
Time passed little by little, and it was unknown how long it had passed before the room finally became quiet.
"Whoo~"
Ikeba Jinghua let out a sigh of relief.
She carried the cold milk and walked carefully back to the bedroom on the second floor.
I have to say, your concentration is really great.
But maybe her legs were numb from standing for too long, or her body was weak from listening for too long, but when she put down the plate, her hand shook accidentally and she knocked over a glass of milk.
The sound of the cup falling to the ground seemed unusually crisp in the quiet house, breaking the original tranquility.
"Ha~"
Hanyu Kusunoki, who had not yet fallen asleep, looked up at the ceiling with an evil smile on his face.
"Master, good night."
……
Over the next few days, the two of them stayed at their master's house, learning kendo and karuta from their master.
Compared to Kazuha, who made rapid progress and displayed great talent, Hanyu Kusunoki's progress seemed a little slower.
To this end, Ikeba Shizuka devoted most of his energy to his slightly clumsy apprentice, patiently answering his questions and providing him with careful guidance.
The relationship between the three masters and apprentices became closer as they got along.
When Ikeba Shizuka looked at her two lively, cute and energetic apprentices, it was like seeing her younger self, and she had the wonderful feeling of returning to her youth.
To the extent that, in the past few days with their company, she completely forgot that she had a husband and son.
However, the time of reunion is always short, and separation is the norm in life.
Kazuha's vacation time is up, and it's time for Hanyu Kusunoki to return to Toudou.
……
Osaka Station.
A luxury car slowly stopped in front of the station entrance. Hanyu Kusunoki got out of the car, walked quickly to the other side, and reached out to open the door.
"Master, slow down."
"Ah."
Ikenami Shizuka responded, stretched out a hand to hold Hanyu Kusunoki's arm, and walked out of the car gracefully.
Today, she was wearing an elegant kimono. Her long, shiny black hair was loosely tied behind her head. A few strands of hair playfully fell on both sides of her cheeks, adding a touch of softness.
The overall feeling given is that the person is as quiet as a chrysanthemum.
"Xiao Nan, take good care of yourself when you get to Dongdu, and don't fall behind in your studies."
While giving gentle instructions, Ikenami Shizuka stretched out her slender fingers to help Hanyu Kusunoki gently close the open collar.
It's windy now and it's easy to catch a cold.
"Okay, I understand, Master." Hanyu Kusunoki narrowed his eyes, with a well-behaved expression on his face, and let her do what she wanted.
The only one who came to see him off today was Ikenami Shizuka. He Ye originally wanted to ask for leave to come and see him off, but was stopped by him.
Speaking of which, he chose to return to school at the beginning of the semester because he had his own thoughts...
After helping her apprentice put her clothes in order, Chi Bo Jinghua leaned over and took out a notebook from the car and handed it to her, "Xiao Nan, this is for you. It contains some of my experience in swordsmanship. You can take a look at it before practicing."
She was so worried about this stupid apprentice with poor talent that she tried every possible way to help him improve.
"Thank you, Master!"
Hanyu Kusunoki took the notebook with a touched look on his face, then stepped forward and hugged Ikenami Shizuka in his arms.
In public, being held in the arms of a young man who was neither her husband nor her son, Ikebo Jinghua's body stiffened slightly, and the voice she heard that night involuntarily emerged in her mind.
Especially when Hanyu Kusunoki's hot breath sprayed on her neck, Ikenami Shizuka felt her heart tremble suddenly, and an indescribable feeling surged in her heart.
But she was experienced after all, so she suppressed the strangeness in her heart and reached out to gently pat Hanyu Kusunoki's back.
After the contact over the past few days, she had no defenses against Hanyu Kusunoki at all. In Ikenami Shizuka's view, the two of them were just a master and disciple with a closer relationship.
And what can the disciple do to the master?
She never thought of it otherwise.
The two hugged each other, and Ikenami Shizuka felt the warmth in Hanyu Kusunoki's arms. After a while, she said softly, "Okay, have you hugged enough?"
However, Hanyu Kusunoki shook his head like a child, mumbling: "Not yet..."
Then, he took a deep breath, and instead of loosening his hands, he hugged Ikebo Shizuka even tighter, and started to act coquettishly: "Master smells so good, like a flower in spring."
Hearing this, Chi Bo Jinghua couldn't help but laugh and scold: "Slippery tongue!"
But there was clearly a hint of doting in her helpless tone.
As she spoke, she raised her hand and gently pinched her disciple's cheek, and as for Hanyu Kusunoki's hug, she chose to indulge and let it go.
Sure enough, children who act like spoiled brats always have the best luck.
After a long time, Hanyu Kusunoki finally seemed satisfied. He reluctantly let go of her arms and said affectionately, "Master, I will miss you."
"Work hard, Master will be waiting for you to come back."
Ikebo Jinghua smiled faintly, her eyes full of tenderness, as if she could melt people.
"Oh, by the way, Master, this is for you."
Hanyu Kusunoki seemed to suddenly think of something, and with a thought, an exquisitely carved wooden box appeared in his hand.
When Ikeba Jinghua saw the wooden box, her originally calm expression changed instantly. Her pupils suddenly shrank and her body unconsciously took a small step forward.
