After leaving for a few days and returning home, the day is about to pass, so Naruse and Naoko are not in a hurry to do a big cleaning, and are ready to talk about it tomorrow morning.

The two of them packed up the luggage they had brought back, sorted the gifts into categories, and when they had dinner, it was completely dark.

After tidying up the kitchen and taking a shower, the two lay on the sofa for a while.

"The thought of cleaning tomorrow makes me feel like I can't settle down......

"When I get home, I'm relieved."

Naoko looked up and smiled, and continued to lean on her boyfriend's shoulder, "And they will also come over to help, and the five of them will clean up together, it's still very soon." ”

"I hope so." Naruse exhaled slowly.

After lying down for a while, Naoko got up first, "Let's go take a bath." ”

"Hmm."

After taking a shower, the two went back to their upstairs room and went to bed.

The next morning, Naoko woke up early. When Naruse was woken up, she had already prepared breakfast.

"Hmm...... It's not eight o'clock yet, it's so early. ”

"It's very early, and today I have to clean the house completely, and I can't sleep lazy."

Naoko clenched her fists, full of energy, and when she saw him close her eyes, she shook his body again, "Get up." ”

"It's too early, and they haven't come here yet."

The bed at home and the smell at home all make people feel at ease, and they sleep exceptionally well in the morning.

"Wake up at eight o'clock." Naruse added.

Seeing that he couldn't push him, Naoko reached out and touched the bed.

“……”

Naruse opened her eyes, and the drowsiness quickly subsided, and another impulse took its place, thriving in her restless palm.

Naoko let go at this time and withdrew his hand, "Chunhai hurry down, breakfast is already prepared early, and if you don't eat it, it will be cold." ”

He stretched out his hand, but it was empty.

She smiled, quickly escaped the room, and went downstairs.

“……”

Looking at the ceiling, Naruse exhaled heavily and got up anyway.

Changing clothes, washing, eating Naoko, and then going to have a cold breakfast, when it was almost finished, Hikaru Takikawa came to the door first.

"Ah, have you started eating...... No part of me? ”

Naoko was stunned, and she laughed again, "Just kidding, I've already eaten at home." ”

"It's really ......"

Takigawa Hikaru came to the restaurant and showed his face, so he went to the living room to sit again.

Ten minutes later, Morimi and Starfish also came over.

"Good morning."

"Good morning, you're so early." Morimi said, suddenly sniffling and sniffing around on the couch.

"Early in the morning......"

"Kazuha and starfish are also here." Naoko finished breakfast with Naruse, cleaned up the kitchen, and came out, "Then let's start cleaning." ”

"Naoko, let's assign the work."

"Good. Then start with ......"

The first place to clean is upstairs.

The door to the guest room on the second floor doesn't open a few times a year, and there is still a lot of dust inside. But there was nothing in the room and it was cleaned quickly.

And the division of labor and cooperation of several people is really very efficient.

After basically cleaning, Naruse stayed to wipe the floor, and the girls went on to clean his and Naoko's room.

"I don't think I need to clean it here."

"Naoko should clean it every day."

"Hmm." Naoko smiled, "I cleaned the room last night, and it's almost enough to wipe the windows." ”

"Then I'll wipe it." Morimi took a rag and cleaned it.

The other three went downstairs to clean the study.

After wiping the floor for a while, Naruse stood up, thumped his waist, and exhaled.

"Finally finished wiping ......"

As soon as he turned around, Morimi was standing in the doorway, "You're cleaning up?" ”

"So what."

"I'll check it out."

"Whatever."

"Let's take off our clothes first."

“……”

Knocking off her messy hand, Naruse cleaned the rag and went back to his room to look, "Is this cleaning done?" ”

"Naoko said just wipe the windows." Morimi followed in and closed the door.

Naruse glanced back, a little helpless, "Don't make trouble, today's time is not enough." ”

"I didn't plan to do anything." She snorted softly and spread her arms again, "Just let me hold it for a while." ”

Naruse passed, and she didn't have Hu Lai in the end - she didn't have the strength to think about Hu Lai - let her hug her for a while, and the two went down.

"Are you already cleaning the study?"

"Well, start with the least cleaned area."

The two tall men came over, and Naoko gave way for them to wipe the dust off the bookshelf.

Naruse took the rag, and Morimi also went to the starfish to help.

There was a lot of dust in the study, and there were a lot of things piled up, and it took the longest time to clean this area.

Wiped down the bookshelves, starfish swept the floor, and Naoko and Hikaru Takikawa wiped the floor.

"Give it to me."

Reaching out and touching it to make sure that the bookshelf was dry, Naruse stood on the stool, reached out and took a few books from Morimi, and put them back on the top of the shelf.

They were the only ones left in the study.

"Mr. Naruse has a lot of books, and there are some books here that I haven't even heard of...... What's wrong? ”

Seeing that he was suddenly staring at herself, she asked.

"No, nothing."

Naruse smiled and shook his head again, "I've been being called 'Mr. Naruse' outside for the past few days, and I thought you were calling me just now." ”

Mori was stunned for a moment, and also smiled, "Then do you want me to call you that?" ”

"Whatever you want."

"It's okay to be a little more respectful, even if it's a 'master' or something."

"Really?"

"Of course." She leaned closer and put her hand on his leg, "It's not limited to just calling 'master'......"

"Then I command you now: concentrate on cleaning, and put away those nasty thoughts."

"Hmph." She pinched him in the leg.

Put all the books back on the shelves, and the study is almost tidy up.

After cleaning, Naruse took a turn in the study and slowly exhaled.

Morimi looked at him, "Do you remember Mr. Naruse again?" ”

"Hmm." Naruse pointed to the desk inside, "When he was alive, he stayed here the longest...... It's been more than a year since I came back, and I've thought about moving my books down and using this study again...... But after thinking about it, I still think it's better to leave this place as it is. ”

She shook his hand, "Just as a remembrance." ”

He took a breath and smiled at her.

"Well, just as nostalgia."

She laughed too.

"Alright, let's go clean somewhere else."

Closing the door to the study, the two of them went to another guest room next to it, cleaning with Naoko, Starfish, and Hikaru Takikawa.

With Naoko under the command, the five of them were busy together, and the cleaning efficiency was extremely high.

Although there are only two more people than last year, one of them is not very useful, and he is better at sexual harassment than cleaning, but Hikaru Takikawa is tall, fast-moving, and tireless, and he is a top performer when he cleans.

As the morning passed, several people basically cleaned up Naruse's house.

"I'm so tired......"

"Take a break." After wiping the floor in the living room, Naruse was also very tired, "After lunch, I'll go clean up Naoko's house." ”

"Hmmm......"

"I'll prepare lunch." Naoko stood up on the couch.

"Just eat something at noon." Hikaru Takikawa said.

"That'...... Udon? ”

"I want instant noodles." Starfish said.

"It's okay, you don't have to wash the dishes. Well, let's eat instant noodles. ”

Several people also had no opinion.

Hikaru Takikawa stood up, "Then I'll buy it." ”

"Ah, by the way, bring some drinks back, I want juice."

“OK~”

"Then bring some snacks." Starfish said again.

Naruse glanced at her, "You go with her." ”

The starfish pursed her lips and got up anyway. Seeing him hand over his wallet, he smiled again.

"How much can it cost?"

"You can do it."

The two left with their wallets.

"Then I'll boil some water." Naoko went to the kitchen, and only Morimi and Naruse were left in the living room for the time being.

"Naoko's house should be cleaned quickly."

"It won't take longer than cleaning here, her house doesn't have any furnishings, and it's easier and more convenient to clean."

"And Naoko occasionally goes over to clean up?"

"Yes, always."

"I'm not tired......

"Because mom and dad could come back at any time." Naoko also came out of the kitchen, "Is Kazuha tired?" ”

She thumped her thigh, "I can't stand up, I want Chunhai to pinch me." ”

Naoko sat down next to her, "Yes." ”

"Come on." Morimi was not polite, and directly put his legs on Naruse's thighs.

“……”

Through a layer of black stockings, Naruse touched it, and then pinched it on her thigh.

"Tap slightly...... Yes...... It hurts, it hurts, it hurts—"

"Don't make strange noises."

"Pinch it for me later." Naoko said.

"Hmm."

And before it was Naoko's turn, Starfish and Hikaru Takikawa came back from shopping.

The two patted each other on the snow on their heads and shoulders at the door, "It's so windy outside." ”

"Then why don't you close the door quickly."

Snapping, closing the door, the two returned to the couch with two large bags of things.

Naoko glanced at it, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Naruse, and he immediately spoke, "The starfish also bought too much." ”

"You said you looked at it......"

"Doesn't it mean not to buy too much?"

"Who understands this."

She returned her wallet to him, and also put down the two large bags of food, and Hikaru Takikawa took out the instant noodles that a few people were going to eat at noon and placed them on the low table.

"I bought different flavors, which one do you want to eat?"

"I can do it all." Naruse said.

Naoko glanced at it, "Me too." ”

"This one is mine." Starfish said, pointing to one of them.

"I'll do it too." Morimi lowered his legs when the two of them came back, and stood up at this time, "Do you want to go to the restaurant to eat?" ”

"Well, it's a little more ceremonial."

"What do you say......

Take the instant noodles to the restaurant, open them separately, and Naruse carries the kettle and pours hot water on each of them.

"It's such a blessing to be able to eat a bowl of steaming instant noodles on such a cold day." Hikaru Takikawa clasped his hands together and lowered his head and closed his eyes, "Amen." ”

Morimi nodded, "Smelling the instant noodles, I feel like I've seen heaven." ”

Naruse glanced at the two of them and said to Naoko, "Someone's brain is frozen." ”

She smiled.

"It's really fragrant...... And it's a different aroma. ”

"yes." Hikaru Takikawa smiled at the two, "My dream when I was a child was to be able to eat instant noodles every day. ”

"Eh, me too!" Starfish looked happy.

"And then I don't know when it was replaced by a hamburger."

"Uh-huh!"

"And then there's pizza."

Morimi glanced at her, "Your dream is hard enough." ”

"It's alright." Hikaru Takikawa looked at Naoko again, "By the way, my dream now is to be able to eat Naoko's food every day." ”

Naoko smiled slightly, "Thank you." ”

After waiting for a few minutes, Starfish was the first to lift the lid of the instant noodles, and several people followed suit.

Instant noodles are ready to eat, ready and eaten faster, and after a few bites, they are all eaten without any chance of small talk.

After disposing of the leftovers after eating, they returned to the sofa and rested for a while, and then a few people came to Naoko's house again, and then cleaned up.

"I found out that Naoko's house is actually the place where we come the least." Hikaru Takikawa said.

"Because I'm usually on the other side."

"You can come and stay once in a while, just like before." Naruse said.

"Yes." Naoko nodded, raised her hand and pointed to the window, "Ichiha go and wipe over there." ”

“OK。”

A few people cooperated as they did in the morning, and before they had finished cleaning the room on the second floor, the sound of a car came from outside.

“……”

Naoko looked up, glanced at her boyfriend, and immediately walked to the window, and sure enough, her parents were back.

"I'll go down!"

Naoko dropped the rag and hurried downstairs.

Naruse also stood up, "I'll go down too." ”

"Wait a minute." Morimi grabbed him, "What are we going to do, I feel a little embarrassed......"

The burden of their thoughts, that is, his burden, Naruse frowned and thought for a moment, and said, "Naoko's parents won't embarrass you, take it easy." ”

"Shall we go down with you, then?"

"Let's go down."

So the four of them followed downstairs.

"Spring Sea."

When Kazuko saw him, he also saw the three girls who went downstairs with him, his face was slightly complicated for a moment, and then quickly turned into a smile, "Everyone came to my house to help clean up, it's really helpful, thank you." ”

"No, where ......"

Morimi is very well-behaved.

Naoko originally threw herself in her mother's arms, but they separated after a few people came down, and then said: "The downstairs hasn't been cleaned yet, Mom and Dad go to Chunhai's house to sit first, it's already cleaned over there." ”

"Yes." This Hanasa Kazuko had no opinion on this, put down her luggage, waved her hand to a few children, and pulled her husband to the other side first.

"Let's move on." Naoko said.

"Okay."

Several people returned to the upper floor and continued to clean, but their movements unconsciously sped up.

Naruse's family, sitting down on the sofa, Kazuko Hanasa picked up a bag of snacks on the table, took it to the front and rummaged through it, and quickly put it down again.

"Looks like those kids are having a good time."

This flower Toru also nodded.

She rummaged through it again, took out a pack of snacks, and opened it.

"It should be fine to eat a pack."

"Hmm."

"I knew I was going to have something to eat when I was passing through the city."

This Hua Toru also looked at it, and also unpacked the snacks, and suddenly thought of something, and said: "The things in the car ......"

"Ah, by the way, divide the children a little bit, and let them take them home directly."

"Hmm."

"Having said that, I don't know what the attitude of the parents of those children is now......

The two were eating snacks, and Kazuko Hanasa looked out the window, and the house opposite was sometimes clear and sometimes blurry in the wind and snow.

"Let's go downstairs."

"Hmm."

Naruse stayed behind to wipe the stairs, and the other three followed Naoko downstairs and continued to clean up the rest of the place.

Guest room, study, kitchen, living room...... Before the sky was completely dark, several people finally cleaned up the flower house.

"It's really clean, everyone has worked hard." The couple also returned here, "Let's stay and eat at my house in the evening." ”

"Okay." Hikaru Takikawa was the first to agree, and Starfish and Morimi also nodded.

said that it was to stay for dinner and prepare dinner, but it still fell on the heads of a few children.

"What are you all doing here?" Bumping into someone while raising his arm again, Naruse couldn't help but speak, "It's enough for me and Naoko here." ”

"I don't know what to say to Naoko's parents when I'm outside, and I'm more worried about what they'll say to me...... I don't even know what to put on my face. ”

"Kazuha just needs to show a little arrogance as usual."

"Is Shangzi in a yin and yang weirdness?"

"Nope."

“……”

Naruse had even more headaches.

"Go and stay at my house."

"Yes." Morimi pulled him, "You send us over." ”

Naruse washed his hands and led them out of the kitchen, only to find Hikaru Takikawa staying.

"I'm here to help." She's already taken over what he's been busy with just now.

Passing by the living room, the flower couple said they were going to get something when they looked over, and Naruse sent Morimi and the starfish home.

"I'll call you when I'm ready for dinner."

"Hmm. What are you going to take? ”

"I'll take a look." Naruse turned around and went to the kitchen.

Looking at the jar of white sugar that her boyfriend brought over, Naoko didn't say anything, just asked him to put it in a position that was not easy to ignore, so as not to forget to take it back.

The three of them were busy preparing a sumptuous dinner.

"That's pretty much it."

"It's already very rich."

Then he called Morimi and Starfish over, and the few of them had dinner with Naoko's parents.

As it turned out, they were completely overthinking, and the couple only asked them about their travel in the past few days, and did not mention anything else.

After the meal, when the few people were about to leave, Kazuko Hanasa took out the things that had been divided and asked them to take them home.

"It's all brought back from the research institute, you're welcome, just take it all."

"Thank you......"

The group went home, and Naruse and Naoko stayed behind to clean up the kitchen.

"I'll sleep here at night." Naoko said, "Sleep with your mother." ”

Naruse nodded, "Okay." ”

"You sleep downstairs at night, and you are not allowed to sleep in my bed."

"'You'?"

"Harumi will find out when he comes home."

When he returned home and saw Morimi on the sofa, Naruse sighed.

"When will you surprise me?"

It's been a long year, and the water doesn't move.
