Chapter 525: Chapter 355: The Matter of Viewing the House
Uesugi Sakura opened his eyes.
What met his gaze was the empty ceiling and the morning light that the gauze curtains couldn’t shield.
He lay there in bed dazed for a long while, then suddenly reached out with his left hand to the side.
Nothing.
There was nothing.
Just emptiness.
Uesugi Sakura sighed.
Damn, the morning perks these days are all gone.
Previously, upon waking, he only had to reach out alongside to touch those places she usually wouldn’t allow.
He could even gently stroke her like a sneak attack while she slept.
Then he would give her cute little sleepy face a good morning kiss.
Watching her cheeks turn cherry red would brighten his mood for the entire day.
As for now... they’re gone.
All gone.
Gone for several days!
No way, he had to ask her why she didn’t want to sleep with him, Uesugi Sakura thought, pulling off the blanket, putting on his slippers, and walking out of the bedroom.
Just then, Hanabi came out of the bathroom on the second floor, and the two bumped into each other.
"Sakura-kun,——"
Just before Hanamaru Hanabi could say good morning, Uesugi Sakura reached out his right hand and pinned her against the wall.
A thud.
The girl’s entire back was pressed against the wall.
Hanamaru Hanabi, with her shoulders hunched, grabbed the wall behind her with both hands, slightly scared, and looked at the handsome face closing in on her.
"Sakura, Sakura-kun... good morning..."
"Mm, good morning."
The morning light in the corridor diffused over his side profile.
This warm light, coupled with the commanding stance of his pinning, reminded Hanamaru Hanabi of the morning dramas she watched at Fuji TV Station.
The male lead so handsome, the female lead’s face so blushy.
Then the male lead would kiss the female lead shyly.
No! What is Hanabi thinking!
Can’t think about these...
Uesugi Sakura noticed Hanamaru Hanabi suddenly starting to pull back, intentionally bringing his face closer again.
"Tell me, why don’t you want to sleep with me anymore?"
"Sakura, Sakura-kun... Your nose... it’s too close..."
"Don’t like me being this close?"
"No, I didn’t say that I don’t like it..." she said softly, turning her face away, avoiding his intense gaze.
"Since you don’t dislike it, then you should sleep with me tonight."
"No..."
"Huh? Why? I’ll turn into a cat for you to pet, I’ll let you use my arm as a pillow, I didn’t even complain when you stole my blanket at night, and didn’t you like holding me with your legs while sleeping?"
Hearing this, Hanamaru Hanabi seemed dazed, absent-mindedly asking, "Is there any of that...?"
"Of course."
Uesugi Sakura brought his head closer, his nose brushing against her snow-white neck: "Don’t look at Hanabi-chan being so soft and fragrant usually; by night, she reveals her true form."
The breath on her neck made her skin tingle slightly, and Hanamaru Hanabi, in a meek voice, with blushing cheeks, retorted:
"Really, that doesn’t happen..."
"What are you resisting? Isn’t it cute? Hanabi has to understand that."
Uesugi Sakura moved forward and nibbled on her earlobe, exhaling a warm breath.
Hanamaru Hanabi noticeably trembled, and in an instant, her body felt like an electric current ran through, suddenly softening.
"Sakura-kun..."
Even her soft voice carried a tender blush.
She wasn’t sure if it was because of the romantic haze, but the girl suddenly thought his face was so handsome, and felt a sudden urge to be near him, to be surrounded by his voice, to be... gently nibbled...
No! How could she think about those... Mustn’t!
Due to the height difference, Hanamaru Hanabi’s entire petite body was now nestled under his pinning.
Uesugi Sakura could sense the girl’s slight changes, directly using his left hand to hold her chin, turning her towards him.
Hanamaru Hanabi tilted her chin up, her vivid purple eyes trembling anxiously, and seeing his lips closing in, hurriedly closed her eyes.
Gradually, she sensed the warmth of his breath, but just as their lips were about to meet, and Hanamaru Hanabi was readying for the kiss, he suddenly pulled away.
Hanamaru Hanabi felt like her body suddenly lost strength, that tight feeling in her chest suddenly emptied.
The sweetness that her lips hadn’t yet tasted slipped away, and she instinctively pressed her lips together, wanting to savor it, yet helplessly.
Finally, she opened her now watery vivid purple eyes.
"Sakura-kun..."
This call of Sakura-kun was slightly drawn out, like a girl’s complaint, but also like a sweet reminder.
Uesugi Sakura saw her pressed lips and said seriously:
"Sleep with me tonight, and you’ll have a good morning kiss."
His intentions now fully revealed, Hanamaru Hanabi snapped out of her full-hearted state.
She quickly placed both hands on his chest.
"No way, Hanabi is doing a self-reflection."
"Self-reflection? About what? Hmm? Tell me about it."
Uesugi Sakura realized that pinning her against the wall like this exuded a masculine dominance, and with Hanamaru Hanabi’s submissive nature, this dominance was even more pronounced.
Under his pinning, Hanamaru Hanabi almost shrunk into a small sobbing girl.
"I can’t say... "
"Why can’t you say it?"
"Just, just can’t..."
"If you don’t tell, then I won’t kiss you."
"You won’t, you won’t kiss..." Hanamaru Hanabi mumbled softly, her cheeks turning away again, avoiding his gaze.
This action seemed more out of fear.
"You won’t kiss, huh?" Uesugi Sakura chuckled.
He knew what little Hanabi was afraid of.
Under the resistance from her two little hands pushing against him, he whispered in her ear: "Hanabi-chan likes little kids a lot; then does Hanabi-chan know how kids are born? Today I don’t have a match, so I can spend the whole day playing with you and kids in the room."
