"I know part of it." Yu Sheng Nan approached her, gently tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "But... not much. After all, she's not family."
Akemi's eyelashes trembled slightly: "I see..."
"What?" Yu Sheng Nan pinched her earlobe, feeling the soft touch between his fingers. "Does Akemi want her to know?"
"Young Master Yuzuru, don't tease me."
Mingmei pouted cutely, her cheeks puffed out slightly, like a little hamster with puffed-out cheeks, looking very playful.
Yu Sheng Nan couldn't help but chuckle, affectionately ruffling her hair and making it a little messy. "Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. But..."
He deliberately dragged out the words, "Mingmei looks so cute when she's jealous."
"I didn't..." Mingmei's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.
The two chatted in the kitchen while waiting for the baking to finish.
As the countdown reached zero, the Gourmet Cell Baking Oven emitted a soft "ding," and a line of text appeared on the LCD screen:
[Baking complete]
[Effect: Permanently increases minor physical constitution]
The two of them looked at the screen at the same time and were both stunned for a moment.
Previously, the desserts could only provide temporary attribute bonuses, and those fancy effects all had time limits. But this time, the word "permanent" has appeared!
"Wow...that's amazing!"
Akemi carefully opened the stove door, and a fragrance that blended the fresh scent of lemon with the sweet aroma of vanilla instantly filled the entire kitchen.
The baked meringue lemon pie has a perfect golden color, a delicate sheen, and fluffy, even edges, just like the one Xia Mei made herself.
Yuzuru picked up a piece, and in his field of vision, the pastry was surrounded by a rare golden halo: [One Master-Grade Protein Lemon Pie "Constitution +1" permanently increases the user's basic constitution, limited to three uses per person].
“Permanently improve physical fitness…” Mingmei repeated softly, “This goes beyond the scope of ordinary snacks.”
The pastries they make during the day are nothing compared to this.
A permanent upgrade means that even a pig can be turned into GG Bond if given enough treats?
Hanyu Nan cut the lemon pie in half and handed one half to Akemi: "Want to try some?"
Akemi took it, and the two of them took a bite at the same time.
The pie crust melts in your mouth, and the lemon cream filling is perfectly balanced between sweet and sour, with a hint of the warm aroma of Russian vanilla. 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 vitality.
"How do you feel?" Yuzuru Nan moved his wrists.
Given his current physical strength, even a slight improvement in his physique would hardly make him feel any noticeable changes.
Just as pouring a glass of water into a large fish tank might create some small ripples, but pouring a whole fish tank of water into a vast ocean will not create any waves at all.
Akemi looked at her hands in surprise: "It seems... really different, I feel lighter."
As she spoke, she couldn't resist trying to jump. To her surprise, she jumped higher than usual and almost hit the ceiling. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!"
"Be careful." Yu Sheng Nan smiled and supported her waist. "Improving your physique will enhance muscle strength, bone density, and nerve reaction speed."
After landing, Mingmei moved her limbs with wonder, as if she had discovered a completely new version of herself. "This is amazing..."
Yuzuru smiled as he handed over the plate: "Each person can eat three pieces. The effect will decrease gradually but won't disappear. Let's go, let Ran and Sonoko try some too, they need to go back later."
I promised a little girl I'd throw an animal party tonight, just for her and Mingmei, and I can't break my promise.
He's still missing a CG of the little girl's defeat.
No... there should be two.
Shiho Miyano/Ai Haibara, one person can film two.
That's why they say legal lolis are so appealing!
.........
Time flew by and the next day arrived.
Last night's egg white lemon pie was a hit with the girls. Although she didn't have much energy, it still allowed a certain genius science girl to stay in bed a little longer.
Although it ultimately failed, my sister dragged me into filming a CG.
The catgirl sisters also expressed their submission to their master, Yuzuru Hanyu, with the utmost sincerity and respect.
In the early morning, sunlight shines through the thin clouds onto the earth.
"We're going to school."
"Bon Voyage."
After having breakfast and saying hello to the maid, Yuu Nan took Ai-chan's hand, who had become listless as soon as school started, and they slowly walked towards the school.
"Why do students have to go to school so early..." Ai muttered, her short brown hair swaying gently in the morning breeze.
“Because that’s the rule of society,” Yuzuru rubbed her head. “It’s as natural as a cat having to eat fish.”
"Nonsense, cats can eat cat food." Ai rolled her eyes at him, but still obediently let him lead her away.
The weather is nice today; it's breezy but not hot.
The cherry blossoms at Teitan Academy have faded, replaced by lush green leaves that shimmer with life under the sunlight, telling a story of the chaotic changing seasons.
When I entered the classroom, Ran and Sonoko were already there.
Upon seeing Yuzuru Hanyu enter, Sonoko immediately pounced on him like a cheerful puppy, jumping and skipping: "Hanyu! Good morning!"
"Good morning."
Yuzuru smiled and caught her, giving her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
Xiao Lan also came over and gently straightened his collar.
The three of them flaunted their intimacy as if no one else was around, a scene that successfully attracted the attention of the entire class.
The boys gritted their teeth at the sight, their eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred; the girls, on the other hand, held their faces in their hands, letting out envious sighs, as if they were witnessing a dreamlike scene of love.
"Jingle bells—"
The school bell rang.
Sonoko reluctantly returned to her seat and fell asleep immediately.
Yu Shengnan pulled a new novel out of his bag, and was about to start his usual slacking off when he suddenly stopped turning the pages, as if he had discovered something interesting.
He put his hand in the drawer.
When I took it out again, I had a palm-sized, fiery red maple leaf in my hand.
The maple leaves are a dazzling red, like burning flames, and their veins are clearly visible under the sunlight.
"Maple leaves..."
Yuzuru gently turned the leaf stem thoughtfully, sunlight filtering through the veins of the maple leaf and casting dappled shadows on the table.
Red leaves are the most sentimental, a single word conveys longing.
I pluck a red leaf to send my longing from afar, and hide an autumn leaf to leave behind my deep affection.
