Waaaaah~

As countless bubbles rose to the surface of the water, a thin mist dissipated from the spout of the kettle, filling the entire space with a dampness.

The kettle has boiled!

Hayakawa Sakuno propped her soft chin up and stared blankly at the door for a long while before suddenly snapping out of it and rushing to the kitchen counter.

"Achoo~"

However, due to carelessness in pouring hot water, the back of his hand was scalded by the high-temperature steam.

It's all that guy's fault!

[Ding! Hayakawa Sakuno's dislike level increases by 1!]

"His period!"

With a click, the front door to the entrance opened, and Hayakawa Sakuno raised an eyebrow upon hearing the sound and quickly ran up.

However, just as he approached the corner, he suddenly remembered something and deliberately slowed down.

When he appeared before Junichi Sei, he looked like a creditor who had been owed money for many years.

"I'll do it."

Seeing Junichi Sakura's slippers, Sakuno Hayakawa went to greet him.

"I can do this myself..."

"You guys are so fussy. I don't like things being messy."

Without saying a word, Hayakawa Sakuno tried to snatch the other person's shoes.

Seeing that the other party was so proactive, Junichi Se didn't want to spoil their enthusiasm, so he gave up his spot.

And you know what? Despite her usual startled demeanor, this girl's movements were surprisingly skillful. She opened the shoe cabinet with great care, kneeling with her heels touching her buttocks, looking very serious.

"Sakuno will definitely be a good wife in the future."

Junichi Sei expressed his feelings.

"Achoo~"

Hayakawa Sakuno, who was carefully tidying up the shoe cabinet, suddenly trembled and withdrew her hand as if touched.

"What's wrong?"

Junichi Sei stepped forward to show his concern.

"It's none of your business."

Hayakawa Sakuno rolled her eyes at the other person and put her hands behind her back.

It's all this guy's fault, saying weird things!

Without saying a word, Sei Junichi reached out and grabbed it.

"Please bean..."

Hayakawa Sakuno wanted to refuse, but Junichi's arms were too long, and he quickly grabbed her hand firmly.

Upon noticing the red mark on the other person's delicate hand, Junichi asked with concern, "How did you get hurt?"

Hayakawa Sakuno remained silent, puffing up her cheeks.

This guy didn't even ask for my permission... How awful!

Junichi Sei wasn't surprised. He carefully touched it with his finger and asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"

A tingling sensation shot through the back of her hand, and Hayakawa Sakuno's face flushed crimson. She quickly withdrew her hand, pointing at the other person, speechless: "You, you, you..."

"What's wrong?" Junichi Sei didn't understand why the other person was reacting so strongly.

"We are siblings!"

“Yes, we are siblings!” Junichi nodded affirmatively.

Is it a problem if the older brother is concerned about his younger sister's injury?

"I……"

Hayakawa Sakuno choked.

Am I just overthinking things?

"Wait for me!"

Burns can range from minor to serious. If they are not treated promptly, blisters and scars can develop, which is not good.

What's more, the other party is a girl.

Although Hayakawa Sakuno disliked the other person's presumptuous manner, seeing that the other person was acting out of concern, she ultimately stayed where she was.

That's right, I was just feeling sorry for the other person.

After all, he had just lost his father!

Uh-huh!

When Junichi reappeared, he was carrying a box containing burn ointment.

Give me your hand.

Junichi opened the box and simultaneously opened his palm.

"No need, I can do it myself..."

"obedient!"

Junichi Sei's expression was serious, not at all like he was discussing something.

This was the first time Hayakawa Sakuno had seen the other person look so pale. Her heart trembled, and she inexplicably offered her injured hand.

As a warm sensation enveloped her small hand, she immediately realized what was happening and tried to pull it away, only to find that the other person was incredibly strong.

hateful!

Hayakawa Sakuno was afraid of aggravating her wound, so she dared not exert too much force and had no choice but to grit her teeth and let the other party do it.

Anyway, it's just applying it to the wound!

Seeing that the other person had stopped struggling, Sei Junichi scraped the plaster with his index finger and then gently pressed it onto the back of the other person's hand.

"Eek~"

The cool, refreshing ointment touched the skin's surface, and as Junichi rubbed it back and forth with his fingers, it instantly transformed into a scalding hot medicinal power that began to spread. This itchy and burning sensation made Sakuno Hayakawa involuntarily shrink her neck.

Perhaps because she felt too embarrassed by the sounds she was making, Hayakawa Sakuno began to urge her in a low voice, "Can you hurry up?"

Beneath her seemingly impatient demeanor, her long eyelashes trembled, and her blushing neck contrasted sharply with her seemingly calm surface.

Junichi shook his head and said, "These things can't be rushed. If the medicine doesn't completely dissipate, your arm will still have a mark, and it wouldn't be good if it left a scar."

Seeing the other party's serious demeanor, Hayakawa Sakuno became nervous.

Will it leave a scar?

"Then you can do it a little longer," Hayakawa Sakuno said sweetly.

"Um."

Junichi responded, though he was somewhat puzzled.

What's going on? The system isn't making any noise at all.

Besides, given how he's acted, shouldn't this girl be furious?

Applying ointment is real, but manipulating scores is also a serious matter.

Even if you need to apply ointment, how can it take several minutes to apply it?

That idiot, no wonder he couldn't even get into a good university!

This little sister is becoming less and less adorable. She says she doesn't want it, but she doesn't show any emotion at all.

As he cursed, Junichi's mind began to wander.

To be honest, the other person's hands were so smooth and soft, they felt... no, when they applied the ointment, they were as smooth and delicate as milk.

It's inexplicably addictive.

"Hey~ you idiot, what are you doing!"

[Ding! Hayakawa Sakuno's dislike level increases by 1!]

Suddenly, a loud bang in his ear brought Junichi back to his senses.

Upon closer inspection, I realized that my index finger, which was applying ointment, had accidentally slipped from the back of the other person's hand to the soft crook of their arm, but there was no wound there.

"Sorry, sorry, it slipped..."

Junichi Sei's face flushed slightly.

"You don't need to apply it, I can do it myself."

Hayakawa Sakuno didn't believe the other party's nonsense. She snatched the ointment box, kept shouting "hentai" and ran upstairs with a red face.

Junichi touched his nose but didn't stop him. In fact, he had already applied the ointment, and applying it again would just be a waste.

Anyway, I've already got the points!

Just as he was about to go back to his room to find his documents, Hayakawa Sakuno suddenly returned, her face full of anger.

"What's wrong?"

Junichi thought the other person was really angry and felt a little guilty.

Hayakawa Sakuno grumbled, "Give it back to me!"

"What?"

Seeing that the other person was still pretending to be stupid, Hayakawa Sakuno blushed with embarrassment: "Swim trunks!"

If I hadn't been thinking about this all night, I wouldn't have gotten distracted and burned myself!
