"Xia Liang, ...... are you?" After Chiyuki woke up, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, but when she saw Kawano Natsuryo's outfit, she was suddenly refreshed.

Xia Liang changed into the maid costume that he used to wear in the cat café, but because he didn't go to work later, the maid costume for work was modified to combat use, and now he can only wear it at home.

"I'm going to teach another bad woman a lesson today, and I'll talk to you later when I come back, huh...... But maybe it won't come back. Natsuryo Kawano grinned, and after waving to Chiyuki, he opened the door and walked out, then grabbed Akino's arm and left happily.

Qianxue stayed where she was and thought about it for a while.

Last lesson and won't be coming back? ……

Huh?

"Wait, summer, summer cool!" Qianxue just wanted to get out of bed and rush out, but she heard the cold and merciless sound of the door closing on the other side of the entrance.

“……”

"But, the hateful Xia Liang, and sneaking away, don't take me ......" Qianxue puffed out her cheeks very dissatisfied, and stomped her feet on the spot.

In the case of being favored now, Qianxue's delicate nature also shows signs of returning, but at most she will show a little bit on the side of other girls, and she will still be a good girl forever on Akino's side.

Well, good girl, probably, right?

Thinking of her performance at night during this time, Qianxue inexplicably felt a little ashamed.

——

As usual, Aso was in the villa wiping down furniture, glass, and bowls that no one had used.

Originally, she could barely endure this level of loneliness, but since the last time...... After Saionji Akino came every day, life changed dramatically.

From being scared at the beginning, to slowly learning to accept, to obeying in her heart, and acquiescing to the status quo, Aso Xi admitted that she was indeed no longer what she used to be.

also understands more and more why there are so many objections in the family about her ascending to the throne of power, and she always thinks about choosing a son-in-law for herself and doing something superfluous.

This couldn't help but remind her of the marriage contract she signed with him in the first place, the marriage contract that she regarded as a shield.

If...... It's just that if she had a different attitude to face Saionji Akino at that time, at least she wouldn't be so neurotic, wouldn't it be much better?

If you think about it carefully, your previous operations were too extreme, just jealous, but you don't want to admit that there will be a perfect relationship, so you want to destroy it.

The one who has become extremely sick because of his past experiences......

Thinking of this, Aso Xi silently put down the glass in her hand, then slowly got up and walked to the bathroom on the side.

She looked at herself in the mirror with a double ponytail, her eyes were not always aggressive as before, her eyes changed, and her temperament was very different from the past, this bright and springy, and soft girl like water, is she ......?

With a slight redness on his cheeks and plump and ruddy cherry lips, Aso Xi insisted on wearing the best makeup every day in order to cater to Saionji Akino's preferences.

She felt like she was losing her mind.

Unknowingly, she actually had an attachment to the indescribable half a month before?

Attachment......

Aso pursed his lips, just about to ......

The sound of opening the door sounded outside the door, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, Aso Xi hurriedly ran to the door, and then knelt down respectfully: "Welcome back, young master......"

"Hmm...... Akino, are you doing more than I thought? ”

“……？” Hearing the voice of another girl, Aso Xi slowly raised his head and saw Kawano Natsuryo's playful eyes.

"Long time no see, big little sister?"

"......" Aso Xi didn't reply, but the next moment he saw those indifferent eyes, "I haven't seen you for half a month, and you're starting to be rude again?" ”

"Yes, I'm sorry, young master, welcome back, Miss Xia Liang......" Aso Xi heard the familiar reprimand, and felt that it was particularly pleasant, at least, it was much more comfortable for her than Kawano Xia Liang to speak.

However, what is he going to do when he brings his woman back?

Aso Xi felt puzzled in his heart, but there was a faint hint of expectation.

"Poof-" Kawano Natsuryo felt that this identity reversal was simply too interesting, she hadn't forgotten that Aso Xi was looking for someone to kidnap her, and her attitude towards herself was extremely bad, not only bad, but she also looked down on herself very much.

The results are now ......

Interesting, really funny.

Moreover, Akino said that he had to make Aso Shio completely surrender mentally, and this is the main purpose of coming over this time, so since that's the case, let me try her, right?

Natsuryo Kawano took Akino's hand and began to wander around the villa, looking at the spotless, clean and tidy everywhere, she asked knowingly: "Aso Xi is responsible for cleaning here?" ”

"Yes, I'm responsible."

"Eh, it's really clean, by the way, is that carpet clean?" Natsu Kawano walked in the living room and pointed to the carpet under the coffee table not far away and asked.

"It's all cleaned, it's been disinfected every day with a vacuum cleaner and alcohol, and it's absolutely clean." Aso Xi was paying attention to Saionji Akino's eyes all the time, knowing in her heart that he wouldn't care about these things, but she still cared about the other party's thoughts.

If he thinks I'm not doing a good job and not being productive, will I never come back?

Now it's only been half a month, she feels so lonely, she dreams of him every day, what if it takes a little longer?

Compared with that simple pain and punishment, this kind of pain and punishment now makes her feel more difficult in her heart.

"That's good, then in a minute, Akino...... We're here. ”

Aso: "......? ”

“……”

Akino thought of what Xia Liang had said to him in the car before entering the door.

"After you go in later, try to listen to your wife and me, anyway, whatever I say, you should say, and everything will be answered according to my eyes."

So, Saionji Akino nodded: "Okay." ”

“……？” Aso Xi was stunned, did they all let go so much between themselves? Right in front of me...... No, what am I going to do, why are they here?

"However, I was a little hungry before that, Akino, you can cook for me~"

"Okay, there should be ingredients in the refrigerator here, right?" Saionji Akino confirmed with Aso Xi, there is also a small detail here, when he answered that Xia Liang was good, he followed up with Aso Xi's question, which changed the tone very quickly, and the temperature difference was also very obvious.

And it is this kind of differential treatment that makes Aso Xi once again clearly realize his current identity.

and her...... In the eyes of Saionji Akino, it is nothing, at most it is a tool reality.

……

"It's delicious~Thank you husband~" Natsu Kawano tasted the food made by Akino with a cool taste, this was the first time she ate his cooking alone, and it felt like a date now, and she was in such a good mood!

And she was in a good mood, and Aso Xi, who was standing not far away, was uncomfortable.

Aso Xi is now slowly learning to cook, but her level is at most on the benchmark of some ordinary housewives, which is a big step behind Kawano Natsuryo, let alone compared with Saionji Akino.

What's more, she can actually let Saionji Akino cook for her?

This treatment......

Aso Xi had envy in his heart, but he could only choose to bow his head and continue to remain silent.

"Husband, come here, I'll feed you the rest~" Natsuryo Kawano observed Aso's demeanor, and began to show affection with Akino of Saionji Temple with a smile.

Aso Xi, this guy is also very easy to understand......

And maybe it's deeper than you think.

In this case......

After lunch, Kawano Natsuyo lay on Saionji Akino's lap and watched TV, what stood out was a leisurely and enjoyable, and she also had to eat fruits, eat oranges, Saionji Akino peeled her and ate watermelon, and Saionji Akino also cut it in advance and fed it to her mouth little by little.

It's like raising a baby, everything is served in place.

And for their unlimited behavior of sending dog food, Aso Xi saw it in his eyes the whole time.

Until the afternoon, Natsuryo Kawano felt that the time was almost up, so he pulled Saionji Akino to the guest room on the first floor, and without too much nonsense, he quickly closed the door.

Aso Xi was stunned for a moment, she thought of what Kawano Natsuryo said in the morning.

Sure enough, they still have shame...... Aso Xi was a little lucky, but inexplicably regretful to think.

Aso Xi looked at the leftovers on the table, there were still some leftovers to eat, normally she would definitely throw them out, but this was made by Akino of Saionji Temple herself.

Then the meaning is completely different......

Even if it is not delicious, she will eat it all without leaving any waste.

With this in mind, Aso Shio picked up the chopsticks passed by Akino at Saionji Temple and began to taste these delicacies.

After a few minutes, she looked at the empty plate, a little stunned.

It's so delicious...... Not only is he accomplished in so many things, but he can also cook so well......

After admiring him a little more, she began to wash the dishes.

The warm water washed the dirt off the plates, but as she was drying the last one, she heard a movement on the other side of the room.

……

If it was just like that, at night, Natsuryo Kawano really fulfilled his promise.

……

[Congratulations, host, you have completed the "Aso Shio" mission]

【Reward Issued】

…… Speechless, it's finished.
