"of course."
Luo Chen nodded, stood up, stretched, and said, "I really want to relax on the weekend, since I finally get a break."
After carefully examining Luo Chen's expression and confirming that he was telling the truth, Hina Tsuruya stopped arguing and smiled, "Young Master, please wait a moment. I will take you to a place where you can relax."
"A place that makes people relax?" Luo Chen was looking forward to it.
Hinatsuru Akina first cleared away all the dishes and chopsticks, went back to her bedroom for a while, and when she came out again, she was wearing a light-colored petal-patterned yukata that was extremely rare to see on her.
She wasn't wearing shoes, only a pair of clean white socks covering her small, delicate feet, giving the impression that one really wanted to pick them up and play with them.
"plz follow me."
Hina Tsurugi Akina led the way.
Luo Chen nodded and followed Hinatsuru Ashina up the small building.
We stopped on the third floor.
Luo Chen was led by Hinatsuru Ashina to a small balcony, where the sunlight was just right and there were clean and comfortable tatami mats and sofas.
There was also a small sunshade overhead.
The most surprising thing is that from here, you can see a lush green landscape, a flowing stream, and blue sky and white clouds all in sight.
Quiet and comfortable, a truly top-notch environment!
"hiss!.."
Luo Chen couldn't help but gasp, standing on the balcony, and sighed, "Lady Chuhe, you really know how to enjoy life."
Compare their JavaScript research.
Suddenly I realized that the old-style building on that floor was actually a little lacking.
Hinatsuru Ayana chuckled: "I only come to this balcony when I'm feeling down or when I'm working. It's been less than two years since the renovation was completed, so you're probably the first guest to come here, young master."
"Has love never even come?" Luo Chen asked in surprise.
"Correct."
Hinatsuru Akina smiled and nodded, then knelt on a round tatami seat and began to skillfully brew tea.
Luo Chen glanced around, found the most comfortable-looking beanbag chair, and lay down on it.
A gentle breeze brushed against my face.
Very refreshing!
"The wind here isn't cold at all; it's actually quite comfortable," Luo Chen praised.
"Because the area is almost entirely surrounded by hot springs, the rising steam mixes with the winter chill, so it's not very cold."
"Young master, please have some tea."
Hinatsuru Akina handed the brewed tea to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen took the tea, thanked him, sipped his tea, enjoyed the breeze, and squinted his eyes. Before he knew it, he had fallen asleep.
He slowly opened his eyes more than ten minutes later, looking quite surprised.
Opposite her, Hinatsuru Akina was also lying on a beanbag chair, lazily stretching out her proud figure.
Seeing that he was awake, she smiled and said, "If you're bored, young master, I'll take you to other places to play for a while."
"That's not necessary."
Luo Chen shrugged and took off the bathrobe covering him. As he put it down, his fingers froze for a moment.
This yukata looks like it belongs to Hinatsuru Akina, right?
A fleeting glance.
She noticed that Hinatsuru Akina, who was usually calm and collected, blushed slightly.
Confirmed immediately!
However, to be fair, sitting here is indeed quite comfortable, and Luo Chen does feel quite enjoying himself.
But it was indeed a bit boring.
After sitting for about half an hour, Luo Chen suggested with great interest, "Lady Chuhe, would you like me to teach you how to play shogi?"
"Huh?" Hinatsuru Akina looked over in confusion.
"Anyway, you have now completely accepted that your daughter is learning shogi, and you are gradually starting to support your love to go further and further down this path."
"In that case, why not simply learn it yourself, or even try to fall in love with shogi? That would be better for you, my wife, to support your love in the future, wouldn't it?"
Luo Chen said with a smile.
Hinatsuru Akina hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: "I think I'd better not learn it. What the young master said is true, but there's a big difference between supporting someone's love of shogi and me learning shogi myself..."
"What do you mean?" Luo Chen didn't understand.
"I think that deep down... there is still some unresolved resentment towards shogi."
Hinatsuru Akina raised her clear eyes, gazing at the flowing stream in the distance, and murmured softly, "Shogi... how should I put it? Right now, in my heart, I hate it to death, yet I'm also incredibly grateful."
Luo Chen couldn't understand Hinatsuru Akina's complicated feelings, but since Hinatsuru Akina was unwilling, he didn't want to force her.
"How about we try something else?" Luo Chen asked.
"Others?" Hinatsuru Akina looked over, amused.
Luo Chen felt a little embarrassed, lightly touched the tip of his nose, and said honestly, "Sorry, although the environment here is indeed nice, it seems quite boring after a while."
Hinatsuru Akina wasn't surprised. Unless she was an elderly person who absolutely loved a peaceful life, she would get bored if she stayed in this place for too long.
"Young Master, would you like to go down and soak in the hot spring with that genius? He should have only just started at this point," Hinatsuru Akina suggested.
"With the God Pot... never mind." Luo Chen would rather be with Sora Ginko or Manji, but those two are definitely at the Shakya Hall right now, so he has no chance.
"Would you like to watch me cook?"
"Although it's still early before noon, I can bake some pastries to eat as a main dish at noon."
Hinazuru Akina said.
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued: "This sounds good. It would be even better if we could add some stakes or something."
Hinatsuru Akina chuckled and said, "How about this, I'll make one, and you, young master, will learn to make one. If you succeed once within three attempts, I'll drink three cups of wine; if you fail once, you'll drink one cup."
Chapter 260 A Bizarre Combination of a Cold-Hearted Girl and a Tsundere Princess~
Pastry Game!
Luo Chen and Hinatsuru Akina played this simple little game for an entire morning in an exaggerated way!
The main reason was that Luo Chen hadn't expected Hinatsuru Akina to know so many strange and unusual ways of making pastries.
What about Hinatsuru Akina?
I didn't expect Luo Chen to learn so quickly. Except for a few special cases, he could make it successfully in about three attempts.
She is a very competitive woman.
If it doesn't work the first time, try again...
Until noon.
Hinatsuru Ayana drank a total of 27 beers, while Luo Chen drank 5.
Even more bizarrely...
It's normal that Luo Chen didn't get drunk after drinking 5 cups; this is nothing.
However, Luo Chen was quite surprised that he didn't get drunk after drinking 27 cups of Hina Tsuru Ashina.
"Ha~"
"I have a pretty good capacity for alcohol."
Hinatsuru Akina noticed Luo Chen's confusion. Although her pretty face flushed, she chuckled and offered a brief explanation.
"Impressive," Luo Chen exclaimed.
"But I'm also a little dizzy and smell of alcohol."
"Young Master, why don't you go out and have a celebratory dinner with your JS Research team? I need to take a nap. I'll personally serve you a soak in the hot springs tonight."
"Hina Tsuru said."
Luo Chen was puzzled. Did he need to be served while soaking in a hot spring?
But Hinatsuru Akina seemed impatient to take a bath and wash away her drunken, disheveled appearance. Luo Chen didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and left.
……
Front hall of the hot spring town.
A group of elementary school students, led by Ai Hinatsuru, are happily chasing and playing.
Yasha God's Heavenly Robe seems to have integrated well into everyone's group now, although he is still somewhat aloof... that's something that can't be changed, after all, it's innate.
"Master~?"
