"Dinner's ready, you can go wash your hands...!"Aoi took off her apron and walked out of the kitchen into the living room. She froze before she could finish her sentence.In the living room, Yoshida Saki was sitting sideways on the sofa, while Ito was sitting behind her.Her pigtails were undone and her hair was now flowing over her shoulders, and her slightly eye-covering bangs were clipped to the sides with a hairpin, revealing her cute face. At this moment, Ito was behind her, using a comb to tidy her slightly frizzy, waist-length hair.Aoi's heart skipped a beat... That was her hairpin, that was her comb!What's going on!? Where am I? Who is this?Aoi was completely bewildered... This, this, this, this, this script isn't right!Previously, whenever she brought female classmates home, Ito would always treat them as guests with utmost politeness and no impropriety whatsoever.But what was going on today?He was using her comb to do her hair and giving her her hairpin?"Um... , I..."Yoshida Saki, her cheeks completely flushed with shame, immediately stood up in a panic upon seeing Aoi, lowering her head and not daring to meet Aoi's gaze.Aoi hesitated... Why did she look like she'd been caught in an affair!"Don't you think Yoshida looks much cuter with a new hairstyle?"
Ito said unhurriedly, while also carefully observing Aoi. Although Aoi read anti-netorare novels and used anti-netorare manga as casting material to generate electricity, Ito believed that Aoi could not possibly have a netorare fetish! She must have only watched netorare-themed manga for the thrill!
Ito thought this until he met Yoshida Saki.But now...
In his past life, Ito had read many novels and manga where people had a stroke of luck—or rather, were hit by a stroke of luck—and went to another world. If he had indeed come to the inner world, then it was normal for Aoi to have a netorare fetish.
After all, it was the inner world. Although Ito had little contact with it, in the inner world... no matter how outrageous a fetish was, it wasn't strange.
He had to test her.
To test Aoi and also to make Yoshida Saki transform, Ito proactively offered to help her change her hairstyle.
Although Yoshida Saki knew it wasn't good to let someone else's boyfriend do such a thing, the flattered Yoshida Saki couldn't refuse and could only blush and agree.
While letting Ito transform her image, Yoshida Saki nervously looked in the direction of the kitchen.
In anime, people are recognized by their hairstyles; in the real world, it's not much different.
Changing a hairstyle can indeed change a person's aura.
In any case, he would test her first.
And now... Ito's probing was making Yoshida almost faint.
"!!!!"Hearing Ito's words, Yoshida Saki became even more flustered... Praising another girl's cuteness in front of his own girlfriend?
It's over! Her future school life is over!
The most inconspicuous, friendless, gloomy girl in the class, overestimating herself by seducing someone else's boyfriend... Tomorrow, there would definitely be similar rumors at school.
Would she have to eat lunch in the restroom from now on, and even get splashed with water while eating in the restroom?
"That's right." Aoi ran to Yoshida with a look of surprise and carefully examined her. "It's true, Yoshida-san always used to keep her bangs so low that her face was unclear. After changing from braids to long black straight hair, she also gives off a very well-behaved feeling."
Aoi didn't show any abnormalities. Although she was momentarily stunned at first, after thinking about it carefully... he didn't even react to Rika, who liked him, so how could a mere Yoshida Saki netorare him?
There must be something she didn't know!
Trust!
"Is... is that so?"After hearing Aoi's words, Yoshida breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed she wasn't very angry.
That's right...
With a girlfriend as beautiful and cute as Aoi, why would she think he would like her?
Stealing Aoi's boyfriend? She was just being self-indulgent.
"That's right, she's much cuter with a new hairstyle." Aoi smiled. "But let's not study these things now. Dinner is ready, Yoshida-san, please go wash your hands. The restroom is over there."
"Ah... okay!" Hearing Aoi's words, Yoshida Saki ran to the restroom as if escaping.
Pressing her hands tightly against her chest, she tried to suppress her wildly beating heart. It was the first time since she grew up that she had been praised for being beautiful and cute.
Yoshida Saki stared blankly at herself in the mirror, her face flushed.
She straightened her slightly hunched back and tried to let a smile appear on her lips as naturally as possible.
Although the smile looked a bit stiff, but...
So... so cute!
Completely different from her old self... Is this her transformation?
Ito and Aoi's praise helped Yoshida Saki regain her long-lost confidence. With her back straightened, even her originally unremarkable chest seemed much larger.
Her whole person also changed from gloomy to sunny.
In the living room outside the restroom, the three of them, who had already placed all the dishes on the table, sat at the table waiting for Yoshida Saki.
Looking at Ito, Aoi pouted and showed a sulky expression. Her legs, wrapped in black stockings under the table, also gently kicked Ito's calf.
"You seem to like her very much?"
Ito smiled and did not directly answer Aoi's question.
"She probably doesn't have many friends at school, right? Her personality should also be relatively introverted and lacking in confidence. I just helped her change her image a little and boost her confidence, it's just a small favor."
"You're quite kind," Aoi mumbled, a faint smile unconsciously curving her lips.
Sure enough! Even if he had the intention to cheat, it wouldn't be with Yoshida-san. The girls she brought home before were all cuter than Yoshida-san.
"Hmm... Yoshida-san is indeed quite introverted." She paused. "In that case... why don't you go all the way and go on a date with her to help her regain her confidence?"
"Ah!?"
Ito looked at Aoi with a strange gaze... Letting her boyfriend go on a date with another woman? Could she really have such a fetish?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Aoi averted her gaze, feeling a little guilty. "Although it's a date, it's just to help her regain her confidence. Anyway, you need to gather material for your manga, right? Dating other girls can also enrich your manga material, and at the same time help her regain confidence."
Although she had indeed mastered the system's loophole, could Yoshida Saki netorare her just by going on a date and having fun?
This wasn't looking down on her, but Aoi had great confidence in herself—and great confidence in her relationship with Ito.
Just Rika alone wasn't very efficient at gaining cultivation points.
Dating could not only complete tasks and gain cultivation points, provide him with material to increase manga content, but also help Yoshida Saki increase her self-confidence.
Killing three birds with one stone.Three wins means she wins three times!
Rika, who had been silent, had no idea of Aoi's plans. She calmly watched her older sister.
After all, she had only exposed Aoi's fetish last night, and Aoi had first dated Yoshida Saki yesterday afternoon.
Today, Aoi bringing Yoshida Saki back could be explained by having already dated yesterday and not wanting to refuse today, but Aoi actually let Ito date Yoshida Saki?
Could it be that Aoi's netorare fetish wasn't satisfied with just her help and she needed to drag others in!?
It seems... she needed to step up her efforts!
