Chapter 714: Red Leaves are the Most Affectionate, One Word Expresses Love

"I know part of it." Hanyu Nan walked closer to her and gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "But... not much. After all, she is not one of our family members."

Mingmei's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Is that so..."

"What?" Hanyu Nan pinched her earlobe, feeling the soft touch between his fingers, "Amei wants her to know?"

"Master Hanyu, stop teasing me."

Mingmei pouted cutely with her cheeks slightly puffed up, like a little hamster with puffed up cheeks, looking very playful.

Hanyu Nan couldn't help laughing, and rubbed her little head lovingly, ruffling her hair a little, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. But..."

He deliberately drawled out his tone, "Mingmei is so cute when she's jealous."

"I didn't..." Mingmei's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally almost inaudible.

The two chatted in the kitchen while waiting for the baking to be finished.

As the countdown reached zero, the Gourmet Cell Baking Oven made a soft "ding" sound, and a line of text popped up on the LCD screen:

【Baking completed】

[Effect: Permanently increase a slight amount of physical fitness]

They both looked at the display screen at the same time and were stunned.

The previous snacks could only provide temporary attribute bonuses at most, and those fancy effects were also time-limited, but this time the word "permanent" actually appeared!

"So...so awesome!"

Mingmei carefully opened the oven door, and a scent mixed with the fresh fragrance of lemon and sweet vanilla instantly filled the entire kitchen.

The baked lemon meringue pie was a perfect golden color, with a delicate luster on the surface and fluffy and even edges, just like Xia Mei had made it herself.

Hanyu Kusunoki picked up a piece. In his field of vision, the dessert was surrounded by a rare golden halo: [A master-level meringue pie "Physique +1" permanently improves the user's basic physique, limited to three times per person].

"Permanently improve physical fitness..." Mingmei repeated softly, "This is beyond the scope of ordinary snacks."

The snacks they make during the day are nothing compared to this.

Permanent improvement means that even a pig can be fed into a GG Bond with enough snacks.

Hanyu Kusunoki cut the lemon pie in half and handed one half to Mingmei: "Try it?"

Mingmei took it and they both took a bite at the same time.

The pie crust melts in your mouth, and the lemon cream filling is just the right amount of sweet and sour, with a hint of the unique warmth of Russian vanilla. What's even more amazing is that the moment you swallow it, a warm current spreads from your stomach to your whole body, making you feel like every cell is full of energy.

"How does it feel?" Hanyu Kusunoki moved his wrist.

Given his current strong physical strength, a slight improvement in his physique would hardly make him feel a noticeable change.

Just like pouring a cup of water into a large fish tank, it may cause some small waves, but if you pour a fish tank of water into the vast ocean, there will not be any waves.

Mingmei looked at her hand in surprise: "It seems... really different. I feel lighter."

As she said this, she couldn't help but try to jump. Unexpectedly, she jumped higher than usual and almost hit the ceiling. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow!"

"Be careful." Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and held her waist. "Improving your physical fitness will increase your muscle strength, bone density, and nerve reaction speed."

After Mingmei landed, she moved her limbs curiously, as if she had discovered a brand new self. "It's amazing..."

Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and carried the plate: "Everyone can eat three pieces. The effect will decrease but will not disappear. Let's go and let Xiaolan and Sonoko have a taste. They will have to go back soon."

I promised a little Lolita that I would have an animal party tonight for only her and Mingmei, and I can't break my promise.

He still needs a cg of the little loli's defeat.

No...it should be two.

Miyano Shiho/Haihara Ai, one person can take two roles.

Isn’t it said that legal loli is fragrant?

..........

Time flies and it is the next day.

Last night's lemon meringue pie received unanimous praise from the girls. Although three points of physical strength are not much, it allowed a certain genius science girl to stay in bed a little longer.

Although I failed in the end, I was dragged by my sister to shoot CG.

The cat-girl sisters also expressed their submission to their master, Hanyu Kusunoki, in the most pious and respectful manner.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the thin clouds and onto the earth.

"We went to school."

"Bon Voyage."

After having breakfast and saying hello to the little maid, Hanyu Kusunoki slowly walked towards the school taking Ai-chan, who became listless as soon as the school day came, with her.

"Why do students have to go to school so early..." Xiao Ai muttered, her short brown hair swaying gently in the morning breeze.

"Because this is the rule of society." Hanyu Kusunoki rubbed her head, "Just like cats have to eat fish."

"Nonsense, cats can eat cat food." Xiao Ai rolled her eyes at him, but still let himself be led away obediently.

The weather today is nice, windy but not hot.

The cherry blossoms of Teitan Academy have faded, replaced by lush green leaves that sparkle with life in the sun, telling the story of the chaotic changing of seasons.

When I walked into the classroom, Xiaolan and Sonoko were already there.

Seeing Hanyu Kusunoki coming in, Sonoko immediately jumped over like a happy puppy and said, "Kusu! Good morning!"

"Good morning."

Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and caught her, kissing her gently on the forehead.

Xiaolan also came over and gently helped him straighten his collar.

The three of them showed their intimacy as if no one was around, and this scene successfully attracted the attention of the whole class.

The boys looked at this scene with gnashing teeth, their eyes full of envy and jealousy; the girls held their faces with their hands and sighed with envy, as if they had seen a dreamlike love scene.

"Ding-ding-dong——"

The school bell rang.

Yuanzi reluctantly returned to her seat and fell asleep.

Hanyu Kusunoki took out a new novel from his bag and was about to start his daily slack off when he suddenly stopped turning the pages in surprise, as if he had discovered something interesting.

He put his hand in the drawer.

When he took it out again, there was a palm-sized, fiery red maple leaf in his hand.

The maple leaves are dazzling red, like burning flames, and the veins are clearly visible under the sunlight.

"Maple Leaf..."

Hanyu Kusunoki pinched the leaf stalk thoughtfully and turned it gently. The sunlight filtered through the veins of the maple leaf, casting a mottled shadow on the table.

Red leaves are the most affectionate, and they express my longing for you in one word.

Pick a red leaf to express your love, hide an autumn leaf to express your deep affection.
