Chapter 380: I asked you to massage me, but where did you massage?
It was natural for Mine Shiori to stay at Haruno's house for one night.
Although nothing happened that night, everyone's tacit attitude also foreshadowed a bright future for Sawayama Haruno.
Traveling back and forth between different countries and suffering from jet lag, he didn't say anything more. After taking a shower and watching TV with the other girls, he went back to the room with Miyazawa Maki to rest.
Only when they were alone would Miyazawa Maki show her previous willful look. Seeing Sawayama Haruno following her back to the room, her face began to tense.
"Aren't you going to the others tonight?" she said angrily.
"No, it's a rare trip back home, so of course I have to spend some time with my wife."
Sawayama Haruno sat on the bed with a smile, and just as he was about to reach out to pull Miyazawa Maki to his side, he was met with strong resistance from the other party.
"Do you still know that I am your wife?"
Seeing her newlywed husband trying to make a move, Miyazawa Maki gently kicked him and said in a pretentious tone, "Didn't you think of me as your wife when we were at Niagara Falls?"
"I thought of it, of course I thought of it"
Sawayama Haruno coughed several times in a row, and it was obvious that Miyazawa Maki was still upset about this matter.
Really, it’s just that I didn’t take her out to play once in a while, I will make it up to her later.
"After we finish taking the wedding photos and the nomination matter is over, we will go on our honeymoon, okay?" He raised his hands in surrender.
However, Miyazawa Maki was still somewhat dissatisfied in her heart, mainly because this guy was too irritating. Although she had agreed to stop interfering in the affairs of other girls, she couldn't just look for four at once.
She felt that she needed to teach Sawayama Haruno a lesson, at least not to let him get any further.
The idea was beautiful, but while Miyazawa Maki was still daydreaming, Sawayama Haruno had already quietly touched her little feet that had been kicking her intentionally or unintentionally. With just a light pinch, the other person's face instantly blushed with shame.
"Pervert, you touched my feet again."
"You were the one who handed it to me, right?"
"I'm here to kick you, not for you to play with like this."
Miyazawa Maki's breathing became a little rapid.
This look was really too weird. Maki Miyazawa lay powerlessly on the bed, her back resting against two large pillows stacked on top of each other. Her feet were firmly grasped in Sawayama Haruno's hands. With just a casual pinch from the other party, her whole body became limp and she couldn't exert any strength.

"Don't, don't mess around"
Miyazawa Maki tried to regain control of the sovereignty. Her face was a little hot as she said, "The doctor said that you need to rest for a while. If you really can't, you can go to Mana!"
"Ok?"
Sawayama Haruno was a little confused.
Is this a test for me, or is this serious?
Miyazawa Maki also quickly realized that what she said just now was wrong, so she immediately changed her words and said: "If you dare to go, you're done. I just said it casually."
"Okay, okay, I just said it casually." Sawayama Haruno couldn't help looking at the other person with a smile.
This guy is still as hypocritical as ever. If he really didn't want her to have any contact with Miyazawa Mana, she should have refused when Mana moved in.
As the younger twin sister, is it a unique tsundere attribute?
"I won't do anything but give you a relaxing massage."
Noticing that Miyazawa Maki was a little nervous and uneasy, Sawayama Haruno had to make another promise.
As if to prove that what he said was true, he began to use the massage knowledge he had acquired previously to help Miyazawa Maki relieve some of the pressure.
Anyone who has truly experienced foot massage knows that the sour and refreshing feeling will not arouse any desire at all, but after experiencing it, there will be a sense of comfort as if stretching from the toes to the whole body.
And Miyazawa Maki had experienced Sawayama Haruno's massage techniques before, so after seeing that he was serious, she was a little conflicted but in the end she couldn't say anything and just let Sawayama Haruno do whatever he wanted to her feet.
"Have you had a good rest recently?"
While massaging Maki Miyazawa's feet, Sawayama Haruno asked curiously, "During the time I was in Canada, I didn't see you leaving me many messages. What were you busy with?"
“No desserts.”
Miyazawa Maki took the pillow beside her, put it in front of her and said sullenly, "Aren't there a lot of dry food ingredients? They were all bought before. I was bored so I thought of taking them and studying them myself."
"The results were all failures. I don't know why they were so sweet or tasteless. Sigh."
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you tomorrow." Sawayama Haruno said comfortingly, "It's not a difficult thing anyway. I said I would teach you, but you forgot about it after your enthusiasm faded."
"That's because something else happened later."
Miyazawa Maki moved the pillow away from her face and glared at Sawayama Haruno.
She had asked Sawayama Haruno to teach her how to make desserts before, but before she could start learning, their relationship gradually became a little strange and ambiguous.
But after they started dating, she had long forgotten about making desserts, and would rather spend time in the bedroom than in the kitchen.
Well, it’s not that the kitchen is a bad place. It’s okay to change the taste occasionally, but it’s boring to stay in the kitchen all the time.
In short, by the time Miyazawa Maki remembered about the dessert, it had already passed until now. Since Sawayama Haruno was not there, she naturally had no way to learn it. She could only figure it out on her own and harm the innocent Ayano Yui.
"Then get up early tomorrow."
Seeing Miyazawa Maki's cute angry look, Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but said with a smile: "I'll teach you tomorrow morning, okay?"
"It just so happens that I have some free time in the next period of time. Before I leave for the wedding photo shoot, I will teach you some simple dessert recipes."
"Um"
Miyazawa Maki agreed with a blushing face.
This guy was supposed to be massaging, but he ended up massaging his legs?
"Don't touch me."
"I didn't, it was just a massage."
".asshole."
The "whispering" of the two was heard by a girl who happened to pass by the master bedroom. Miyazawa Mana looked at the closed door, subconsciously lifted her hair, and couldn't help but lean closer to eavesdrop for a while.
After hearing some slightly obscure sounds, her face began to turn red uncontrollably.
Although she knew that Sawayama Haruno and Miyazawa Maki could not actually do anything, the space for imagination still gave Mana great psychological comfort.
It is precisely because we cannot see the actual situation that we can use our rich imagination to imagine what might happen.
No matter what the outcome, this experience was too stimulating for Miyazawa Mana, so after she could no longer hold back, she clamped her legs together and staggered back to her own bedroom.
It was obvious that something "unspeakable" was going to happen tonight.
On the other side, in the old house of the Ezaki family.
Although his grandfather had already gone to bed to rest, Suguha Ezaki was still sitting alone in the tea room.
She refused the woman's offer to add more tea for her and sat on the tatami, unable to stop daydreaming.
The Ezaki family was already in name only, something she only found out after she came back.
The so-called "existing in name only" is just the literal meaning. Those who once firmly controlled the Ezaki family, including all the surnames in the Ezaki Group, have either had their power taken away and sent to other places, or have been sent to prison.
All of this is inseparable from the work of Naoto Ezaki, the nominal brother of Suguha Ezaki. The other party's cruelty is far beyond the imagination of others, especially after his grandfather acquiesced to his behavior, he became more and more unscrupulous.
The huge Ezaki family collapsed, but in return the family group's business reached a new peak. It is difficult to comment whether Naoto Ezaki was a traitor who betrayed the entire family, or a hero who led the entire group to the peak.
In the eyes of his uncle and mother, the other party should be the former, right?
Suguha Ezaki's thoughts couldn't stop wandering until she heard a slight noise coming from outside the house. Then she came to her senses and started to prepare tea.
The door of the tea room was gently opened from the outside, and the person who appeared in the dark corridor was the person he had been thinking about just now.
When Naoto Esaki saw his sister whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he couldn't help but smile sincerely.
"Long time no see, Suguha."
"Long time no see, brother"
Suguha Ezaki responded in a low voice, but his hands did not slow down at all.
Both of them felt a little awkward when they met again. After all, the last time they met was when Naoto Ezaki was preparing to imprison Suguha.
Although it was for the purpose of protection, Naoto Ezaki's actions were a bit too crazy. Until now, Suguha still cannot let it go.
Fortunately, this is also one of the purposes of her going home this time.
"How are you?"
Naoto Ezaki slowly knelt down in front of the tea table and smiled gently, "I've also been paying attention to Haruno's situation. It seems that he has become more and more famous recently. I don't think your relationship has been affected too much by work, right?"
"No, Haruno is very busy, but he still makes time for me."
"Really? That's good." Naoto Ezaki sighed softly, "I've been so busy lately that I haven't even had time to take a breath, but this fulfilling feeling is pretty good."
"Also, Suguha, you should have talked to your grandfather about it, right?" he added.
"After all, I've been back for so many days, and we've already talked a lot." Jiang Qizhiye whispered, "I also roughly understand the current situation. Anyway, I have already left this family, so I am not qualified to comment anymore."
"Really? Independent now?"
Naoto Ezaki couldn't help but let out a wry smile, "It would be nice if you didn't say it so cruelly. I still treat Suguha as my own sister. By the way..."
Having said that, he suddenly took out something from his arms and placed it on the table.
"Although Haruno is now capable enough to take care of you, please accept this gift. At least for the next four years of college, please let me continue to support you as a family member."
It was a bank card, which was slowly pushed in front of Ezaki Suguha by Ezaki Naoto.
The sudden scene made this usually straightforward girl freeze in place.
She thought of many things about tonight's conversation, but she never expected that Naoto Ezaki would take out the money so straightforwardly.
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the other party was sincere or not.
The invincible talent seemed to have completely lost its effect at this moment. Looking at Naoto Esaki's serious and sincere eyes, Suzuha Esaki felt confused and puzzled for the first time in his life.
Was the other party offering money at this time because he wanted to use money to end the internal disputes in the Ezaki family, or was it really as Naoto Ezaki said, just a brother's support for his sister's schooling?
Suguha Ezaki was a little confused, but after hesitating for a moment, she put the card away.
"Thank you, brother."
"You're welcome."
Seeing that Suguha Ezaki accepted the bank card, Naoto Ezaki also breathed a sigh of relief.
There was an indescribable tiredness in his smile, but it also seemed as if he was full of excitement. When their eyes met again, Naoto Ezaki spoke again.
"I talked to my mother before and wanted her to be discharged from the hospital, but she refused. If Suguha has a chance, please go and persuade her. It's a bit too much to keep her in the hospital. Obviously, my mother's condition has stabilized and she can be discharged at any time, right?"
"Um"
Ezaki Suguha didn't say much, just responded in a dull voice.
Discharged?
Even if she is discharged from the hospital, where can the poor woman go? Which family can she integrate into?
Is there any way for a woman whose body and mind have been hurt to this extent to integrate into a normal family? The other party is not as lucky as herself. Perhaps it would be freer for the mother to continue staying in the hospital.
Even my grandfather chose to stay in the old house and never go out again. Is this the fate of all the people in the Ezaki family?
Thinking of this, Ezaki Suguha felt inexplicably complicated. She felt lucky, but at the same time, she felt a little depressed because of her family's other experiences.
As if he could see through her thoughts, Naoto Esaki did not stay long after a brief greeting. He just told Suguha to remember to contact him if she had any trouble, and then he left in a hurry.
He looks very busy. It's already this late, what is he busy with?
Suguha Ezaki sighed and decided not to think about it anymore.
For a moment, she suddenly missed the atmosphere in the Haruno family. Although there were several women eyeing Sawayama Haruno, at least everyone got along happily without so many complicated thoughts.
It’s decided. Let’s go back tomorrow morning.
