She answered in a low voice, but dared not look directly into Shiraishi's eyes.
Shiraishi chuckled softly, lifting her chin with his fingers and forcing her to look him in the eye.
"You won't even tell me the truth?"
Kuonji Yuju's eyelashes trembled slightly, like a startled butterfly.
"Does Aozaki Aoko... know about us like this?"
Shiraishi's expression remained unchanged.
Don't know yet.
"What does it matter? We haven't done anything wrong."
"But..."
Kuonji Yuju's voice grew fainter and fainter.
"You are not..."
"My relationship with Aozaki Aoko is the same thing."
Shiraishikawa interrupted her.
"Our feelings for each other are another matter. Why can't they coexist?"
Kuonji Yuju frowned in confusion.
This complex emotion was far too unfamiliar to her.
In her world, things are black and white, and feelings should be exclusive.
"I do not understand..."
she murmured.
Shiraishi Kawa hugged her even tighter.
"You don't need to understand now."
His lips brushed close to Kuonji Yuju's ear.
"We have plenty of time."
Kuonji Yuju felt a shiver run down her spine.
Reason told her she should push Shiraishi away, but her body defied her will and snuggled closer to his warm embrace.
"Before Aozaki Aoko returns."
Shiraishi's voice was seductive.
"We can still enjoy some time alone together, can't we?"
Kuonji Yuju closed her eyes and nodded gently.
At this moment, she chose to temporarily set aside all her concerns and immerse herself in this forbidden tenderness.
In the afternoon, Kuonji Yuju leaned lazily against the sofa, feeling as if all the bones in her body had been removed.
Shiraishi Kawa sat beside her, his fingers idly twirling the ends of her hair.
"Why aren't you saying anything? You weren't like this when you grabbed my shoulder just now."
Shiraishikawa's voice was clearly teasing as he deliberately leaned close to Kuonji Yuju's ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe.
Kuonji Yuju clicked her tongue softly and turned her head away from him.
She knew that if she responded, she would only provide this despicable man with new amusement.
Her body felt uncontrollably hot, as the power of the contract, like invisible threads, wrapped around every inch of her skin.
"Shy?"
Shiraishi chuckled softly, then suddenly pinched her waist with his fingers.
"what!"
Kuonji Yuju cried out in surprise, then bit her lower lip in annoyance.
She felt Shiraishichuan's arm wrap around her shoulder, pulling her into his embrace.
The familiar scent of cedar enveloped her, causing her to relax involuntarily.
I'll take that as a yes.
Shiraishi's voice carried a sense of smug satisfaction.
Kuonji Yuzu raised her eyes to glare at him, but was defeated the moment their eyes met.
She could clearly see her reflection in his pupils—her cheeks flushed, her eyes unfocused, where was the arrogance and indifference she had shown when they first met?
"The impact of the contract..."
Kuonji Yuju tried to justify herself in her heart, but she couldn't ignore the sweet feeling welling up inside her.
She recalled how, when she first met Shiraishi Kawa, she had threatened him with the most vicious curses to leave.
But now, she curled up in his arms like a docile cat.
"Aozaki Aoko will be back soon."
Kuonji Yuju suddenly spoke, her voice filled with panic.
She tried to break free from Shiraishi's embrace, but he held her even tighter.
"so what?"
Shiraishikawa raised an eyebrow dismissively.
"There's no need to hide our relationship from her, is there?"
Kuonji Yuju unconsciously tightened the hem of her clothes with her fingers.
Yes, why hide it? Aozaki Aoko knew she and Shiraishikawa had signed a contract, and she also knew they needed to replenish their magic power regularly. Damn it.
Chapter 498 Shame
But those intimate moments, those heart-pounding instants, those secrets known only to the two of them...
"You're not enjoying this sneaky feeling, are you?"
Shiraishichuan's thumb stroked her lips, his eyes gleaming with a mischievous light.
"What nonsense!"
Kuonji Yuzu pushed him away abruptly, but almost fell off the sofa because she used too much force.
Shiraishichuan quickly grabbed her, resulting in her awkwardly lying half-reclined on his lap.
"It seems that a certain young lady is more eager than I thought."
Shiraishi Kawa leaned down, his nose almost touching hers.
"How about we use a magic trick to cover up the '897'? Anyway, for ordinary people, it's no different from hypnosis."
Kuonji Yuju felt a surge of anger, but even more so, shame.
She did indeed use magic to erase the traces after each meeting with Shiraishi Kawa, and even altered the dormitory aunt's memory.
This behavior goes against her long-standing pride, but...
"I'll take you back to school."
Shiraishikawa suddenly stood up and pulled Kuonji Yuju up as well.
His change of attitude was so swift that Kuonji Aryu was caught off guard.
"Wait, my shoes—"
Before she could finish speaking, Shiraishi Kawa had already knelt down and grasped her ankle.
Today, Kuonji Yuzu is wearing white lace stockings and black Mary Jane shoes, a typical outfit for an aristocratic girls' school.
Shiraishikawa's fingers caressed the instep of her foot through the thin sock, and Kuonji Yuju immediately stiffened.
"What are you doing! You'll get your socks dirty!"
Kuonji Yuju's voice unconsciously rose a few octaves.
Shiraishi Kawa ignored her and slowly helped her put on her shoes, but deliberately scratched the inside of her ankle with his fingernail while buttoning them.
Kuonji Yuju gasped, her toes curling up inside her shoes.
"Speaking of which, it seems that Aozaki Aoko hasn't realized our relationship yet."
Shiraishi Chuan stood up and looked down at her.
"This isn't like you at all."
Kuonji Arisu's heart skipped a beat.
Indeed, given her past personality, she should have confessed everything to Aozaki Aoko long ago. But this time...
"I just felt there was no need to make a special explanation."
Kuonji Yuju turned her face away, her voice growing softer and softer.
Shiraishi chuckled, then suddenly reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up.
"Did you know? You and Aozaki Aoko have been spending at least forty percent less time together lately."
Kuonji's pupils constrict slightly.
She didn't notice this detail, but Shiraishiwa was right.
Since signing the contract, she has indeed intentionally or unintentionally avoided opportunities to be alone with Aozaki Aoko.
She might feel like you're distancing yourself from her.
Shiraishi's voice deepened, carrying a seductive quality.
"I have a plan that will benefit both sides..."
Kuonji Yuju watched him warily.
"what's the plan?"
