Yuko Ibuki's gaze was firm. She looked into Nao Asano's eyes, trying to find clues from the woman's eyes.
Asano Nao only lasted for a second, avoiding Ibuki Yuko's sight. She shrank her body and hid back in the bathroom.
Sitting on the small stool under the shower, she thought, that girl is so cute, like a doll, is she Yuxi's friend
She was in a daze and didn't know that she had met her biggest enemy yet. It was not her fault that she had no sense of crisis, it was really because Ibuki Yuko's figure was too deceptive.
In Asano Nao's judgment, Ibuki Yuko was either a tall elementary school student or a short junior high school student. Who would doubt such a young girl in a relationship
Moreover, this girl did not appear at all in the future of her and Minami Youxi's dreams. She felt that the girl should be an insignificant passerby character.
Compared to her who had no sense of crisis, Ibuki Yuko was full of fighting spirit. She gritted her teeth, her heart filled with jealousy.
Why is this cow at Yuki's house!
What does it mean that the bath water is ready!
What did you do behind my back
Her emotions were like an undercurrent, surging deep within, without affecting her calmness on the surface at all, and her expression remained cold.
"Is there anything I can do for you, senior?" Nan Youxi looked at the lunch box in her hand.
"I made some curry. I'll give you some." Ibuki Yuko handed over the lunch box. "This is a return gift from last night."
She enunciated the second half of the sentence very clearly, making sure that Nao Asano in the bathroom could hear it clearly. This was her counterattack.
After hearing the reason of return gift, Nan Youxi swallowed back the words of refusal. Since it was a return gift, she had no choice but to accept it.
"Thank you." He took the lunch box, "I'll go get a bowl and pour it out."
"Just give it to me next time. I have lunch boxes at home."
Nan Youxi did not insist. The bowls and chopsticks in his house had not been used for a long time and were covered with dust. He didn't want to use such bowls and chopsticks to serve curry.
"Thank you for your help." He said politely again and looked at the girl in front of him.
The girl looked at him with an expressionless face, and her head tilted to the side, expressing a look of confusion.
Why are you staring at me, she seemed to be saying
Why am I staring at you? Don't you know it? Nan Youxi complained in her heart. Why are you still standing at the door after giving the return gift
He politely said, "I'm going to take a shower next."
Ibuki Yuko nodded, squatted down and took off her shoes: "I'll wait for you in the bedroom."
Minami Yuxi sighed in her heart. It seemed that this puppet girl was determined to pretend to be stupid. Anyway, Asano Nao was at home, so just let her stay.
There were no spare slippers in the apartment. Asano Nao was wearing Minami Yuki's summer sandals. He didn't have a second pair, so Ibuki Yuko could only walk on the floor with her bare feet wrapped in white silk.
Leading her to sit in the bedroom, Minami Yuxi took Nao Asano out of the bathroom.
"You guys chat."
He pushed the socially anxious older sister next to Ibuki Yuko, picked up his clothes and went to the bathroom.
The bathroom door separated him from the two women in the bedroom. The water in the bathtub was of just the right temperature, washing away the troubles he had caused by the two women, and he felt comfortable.
In the bedroom, Nao Asano and Yuko Ibuki were both in turmoil. Yuko Ibuki was hostile, while Nao Asano was socially anxious.
At this point, Nao Asano still hasn't figured out the position of Yuko Ibuki. She thinks to herself, this girl is so cute. Since she can enter Yuki's house, she must be Yuki's friend, right
Moreover, the girl also made curry for Yuki. She must be a good girl like Yimei!
Maybe, they can become friends.
"Good morning, my name is Nao Asano." She mustered up her courage and took the initiative to talk to the girl more than ever before.
"My name is Ibuki Yuko." the girl replied.
"Can I call you Yuko? Are you Yuuki-kun's friend?"
"Okay. Yes."
Ibuki Yuko's overly cold answer made Asano Nao shrink back and her courage quickly faded. Her social skills were extremely poor to begin with, and Ibuki Yuko had a bad personality.
She shrank her body and moved away from Ibuki Yuko.
Ibuki Yuko was very satisfied with her reaction. She was sure that such a timid person could not be her opponent!
However, it is undeniable that the opponent's body is very foul.
This was her first time to come into close contact with Nao Asano. With an attitude of knowing both herself and her opponent, she looked at her carefully.
The girl's burning gaze reminded Asano Nao of Minami Yuki. She was happy to be stared at by the boy like that, but if it was a girl... she shrank to the side again.
Yuko Ibuki paid close attention to her emotional changes. Through the information in her dream and the short time they spent together, she keenly realized that the otaku girl in front of her was someone who could be bullied without worry, just like her daughter Mayuri.
"Take off your coat," she commanded.
"Huh?" Asano Nao was stunned.
"Why? Ah, wait!"
Seeing Asano Nao hesitating, Ibuki Yuko took action herself and pulled off her sports jacket. Without the jacket covering her, she could see more clearly.
Using the word "towering" to describe the mountain is an insult. Only the word "majestic" can barely summarize the height and grandeur of the mountain.
This kind of body is too shameless!
Yuko Ibuki looked down at herself and felt the unfairness of fate.
She thought that although this otaku's fighting skills were a mess, relying on her innate divine power, Nao Asano could break all her skills at the right time!
As expected, Chiju Ichimi is not worth mentioning. This Asano Nao is the most dangerous one!
"Have you finished reading? Can you give my coat back to me?" Nao Asano asked weakly with a red face.
Taking another look at the towering mountains, Ibuki Yuko threw her coat on her body reluctantly.
Nao Asano immediately put on her coat and zipped it up. The clouds obscured the mountain peaks.
She looked at Ibuki Yuko with fear in her eyes. This girl is so weird!
"What are you doing here?" Ibuki Yuko stood on the bed, looked down at the sitting Asano Nao, and continued to interrogate.
"Yuki-kun asked me to help him clean the room." Asano Nao didn't dare to resist.
"Why do you run bath water when you're cleaning the room?"
"It was Yuuki-kun's request."
"Is the bath water clean? Did you do anything secretly in there?"
"Eh?"
"How far have you and Yuuki progressed?"
"Eh?"
"No, answer quickly. And lower your voice."
Under the interrogation of Yuko Ibuki, Nao Asano was confused and revealed most of the information except for the information in her dreams.
Ibuki Yuko was completely relieved. For now, Nao Asano was just an ordinary friend of her husband, and Chiju Kazumi's progress was even worse than Nao Asano. As long as she actively approached her, she would definitely win!
Confirming her chances of winning, she revealed the most important information and also declared war on Asano Nao.
"Do you like Yuuki?"
"Eh?"
Asano Nao's cheeks were hot. She thought, are my feelings so obvious? Sister Yuko mentioned this. Is she going to help me
Until now, she still had beautiful fantasies about Ibuki Yuko, but these fantasies were soon shattered.
"Just give up." Ibuki Yuko looked down at him.
Asano Nao looked at her in surprise.
"Yuuki is mine." The puppet girl declared her sovereignty.
Nao Asano was panicked. In her dream, although she had a love rival named Kazumi, Kazumi had never declared war on her in such a tense manner.
She said hesitantly: "But, Yukiko is still a little girl."
Ibuki Yuko clenched her fists. Even she couldn't face such ridicule calmly!
A hill isn't a mountain! Damn Mount Everest!
"I'm Yuuki's senior. I'm 16 and will be 17 soon." She crossed her arms, suppressing the anger in her heart.
Asano Nao finally realized that the girl in front of her was her enemy!
She was used to retreating and escaping, but this time she mustered up the courage in her heart. She stood up and looked at the girl standing on the bed:
"Yuuki is mine!"
"You have no chance of winning." Ibuki Yuko bluffed. In fact, she regarded the woman in front of her as her number one enemy. If this verbal confrontation could make Asano Nao withdraw, then she would have achieved her goal.
"No, it's you who has no chance of winning!"
They started quarreling like elementary school students, and in order to avoid being heard by Minami Yuxi in the bathroom, they lowered their voices.
Neither of them could win the argument, and no one could produce clear evidence, so they could only stare at each other's faces, which were red from the argument.
Their confrontation was supposed to continue until Minami Yuki came out of the bath, but Asano Nao accidentally saw the photo on the bedside table.
