......

"Good morning, sister and brother-in-law."

"Yes, good morning."

After a brief greeting, Mengmeng lowered her head and walked towards the restroom.

Nana sensed something was off from their seemingly ordinary conversation. If she remembered correctly, her younger sister used to be like a sunflower chasing the sun in front of Mu Huai.

She couldn't wait to show him her elegant, well-behaved side.

I don't know when it started, but I suddenly became unnatural in front of him. I could talk normally, but I would quickly end the conversation and try my best to leave.

The subtle tension she exuded only disappeared when everyone was gathered together.

"That's strange. Did they have a fight about something, and they don't want my sister and me to worry, so they're acting this weird?"

Nana thinks this way because she is considering things from her own perspective; if she and Mengmeng were to argue, they would likely be in a similar situation.

Before she could even ask her sister what had happened, the other party contacted her first.

"Nana, do you think... it would be better if we moved out?"

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?"

For a moment, Nana even wondered if Mengmeng had eaten something wrong, otherwise why would she suddenly have the idea of ​​moving out?

Tell me your reasons first.

"Well... this matter is quite complicated... I don't know how to explain it... or... just pretend I didn't say anything."

Seeing her complicated expression, as if she wanted to say something but didn't, Nana was furious. She grabbed her wrist and rushed towards Mu Huai's bedroom: "It's just an argument. We've argued countless times. Why do you have to take such extreme measures just because you argued with your brother-in-law? Why don't you just talk things out with him?"

"I didn't argue with him!"

"Huh?" Nana stopped and turned back suspiciously, asking, "You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Absolutely not."

"My intuition tells me you're not lying, so what exactly happened between you and him?"

"Nothing happened. This is my own problem and has nothing to do with my brother-in-law."

After hearing this, Nana narrowed her eyes slightly, her intuition telling her that Mengmeng's last words were half true and half false.

(Is the first half of the statement true, or the second half?)

She felt it necessary to ask Anna Hachimi to join her in investigating.

"You mean Mengmeng and Mutou have a conflict, but she just won't explain the specific reasons to you?"

"That's right, haven't you noticed that her attitude towards Mu Huai is completely different now than before?"

Banami looked away awkwardly. She hadn't really noticed anything unusual about the girls surrounding Mu Huai lately, mainly because she had been focused on losing weight and controlling her diet.

Moreover, now that the most threatening Sanae has returned to her hometown, Lala, her nominal fiancée, is so naive that she would never take the initiative to have anything happen with Mu Huai, not to mention that she also has her two sisters-in-law, Mengmeng and Nana, guarding the door for her.

She even felt that she didn't need to worry about Mu Huai; she should focus on losing weight first before considering anything else.

"I'm sorry, I've been focused on losing weight lately so I didn't notice. But could you tell me more specifically what unusual things Mengmeng's behavior was like?"

After a moment's recollection, Nana listed out all the things that seemed off. You wouldn't believe it until she said it, because she talked for more than ten minutes straight.

"You really care about your sister."

"Who said I cared about her? I just didn't want the atmosphere at home to become awkward!"

"Ok, I know."

The other person's arrogance, almost written all over their face, made Anna Hanami chuckle. After analyzing the clues provided, she quickly came to an answer.

"Nana, perhaps you were wrong from the start!"

"I guessed wrong!?"

“Yes.” Banami adjusted her non-existent black-rimmed glasses, a confident smile playing on her lips. “Mengmeng isn’t having a conflict with Mutou-kun; she’s just realizing she’s a little uncomfortable living with the opposite sex!”

"I remember you've never had any contact with members of the opposite sex your own age since you were little?"

"Yes."

“That’s the reason!” She snapped her fingers and analyzed logically: “Mengmeng must have suddenly realized that Mu Huai, besides being her brother-in-law, is also a man of the same age. Because she has never lived with a boy before, she was confused and that caused her behavior to change.”

Nana pointed at herself with a hint of disbelief: "But I don't feel any different. I still play games with him as usual, and I feel happy living together."

"Hmm..." Seeing Anja scratching her head in confusion, Bana said uncertainly, "Maybe it's because you have a savior filter on you, so you feel safe when he's around, and that's why you don't feel confused or uneasy."

"Now that you mention it, I do feel very safe when I'm around him... I didn't realize you were so good at psychology, Anzu!"

"Of course!"

In order to figure out her childhood friend who was as dull as a board, Hanami Anna bought a lot of psychology books and romance novels to fill the gaps in her knowledge.

In other words, she is a fountain commander with a wealth of theoretical knowledge but zero practical experience.

(So, according to Xingcai, the unknown flutter in my heart every time I accidentally bump into Muhuai also means relaxation and peace of mind?)

Nana never expected that consulting with Anna Hanami on a whim would solve both of her problems so quickly, and she even wanted to call her a "psychology master".

She decided to play games with Mu Huai more often from now on. After all, she didn't like him; she just felt comfortable being with him, so she often sought him out.

"It's decided then and there!" Nana clapped her hands, her eyes shining.

"Decid what?"

Seeing that Anzu was completely baffled, Bana wondered how Nana had suddenly gone from being listless to shining brightly, and vaguely felt as if she had dug a hole for herself.

"It's nothing! Anzu, thank you for helping me out. If you encounter any problems in the future, just come to me, and I'll do my best to help you!"

She gave a wry smile and touched her little belly: "I'm having a problem gaining weight now. Do you know any quick ways to lose weight?"

"Uh..."

Nana scratched her head awkwardly. None of her animal companions had the magical ability to absorb human fat. If Mengmeng had any plants related to weight loss, she probably would have brought them out long ago.

"Sorry, I don't know."

"So I guess I still have to keep dieting and exercising? Ugh~ I'm so hungry!"

"How about...we sneak a bite?"

"No, no!" Banai saw Anja's head blurring out, "If I waver at a time like this, I definitely won't be able to control myself, and if Kōji finds out we're sneaking food..."

Nana's curiosity was piqued by the fear on her face, and she pressed for an answer: "What...what will happen?"

"It's better if you don't know."

(How could I possibly say something as embarrassing as barking like a puppy in front of him? It would be obvious that I've done it before!)

"Okay, I'll go back now."

"Ah."

After seeing Nana off, Hanami looked at the calendar in her bedroom and cheered herself up: "Only ten more days until the diet is over, hang in there! Go for it!"

Meanwhile, when Nana got home, she found Mengmeng engrossed in watching a soap opera in the living room. She walked up to her and waved her little hand, asking, "Mengmeng, where's your sister-in-law?"

"In my sister's room, she said the gourmet machine had completed one hundred tests and asked him to come over and assist with a comprehensive inspection."

"Oh, I'll go find him. You can continue watching TV."

Only after Nana's footsteps disappeared from her ears did Mengmeng relax and lean back on the sofa in a more comfortable position. She was worried that Nana would continue to ask her what had happened between her and Mu Huai.

If she kept pressing for answers, it might attract the attention of Lala and Mu Huai themselves, which was not the situation she wanted.

"Seriously... why did it turn out like this..."

Mengmeng bit her thumb nail unhappily, then rubbed her left palm between her legs a couple of times to temporarily suppress the restless feeling.

Lately, whenever she sees Mu Huai's lips, she automatically recalls the feeling of him sucking her tail that day, and her whole body becomes very uncomfortable.

The flower stamens felt itchy, and the nectar was bursting forth in abundance.

"How about... I go to school next week and have Ms. Mikado give me a physical check-up?"

Currently, this method is undoubtedly the safest and most effective solution. After all, when she accompanied Nana to her medical check-up last time, she had already witnessed the other party's professional medical knowledge and expertise.

I imagine solving this small problem for her would be a piece of cake.

After having a general plan in mind, Mengmeng stopped thinking about it, worried that the distracting thoughts she had managed to suppress would resurface.

Then the work of stopping the water will be very difficult. Recently, the frequent need to stop and replenish water has already caused her to suffer from sleep deprivation. If this continues, even without Nana taking the initiative to say it, her exhausted state will be directly exposed to everyone.

Volume 3, "The Loser, the Alien Sisters, and Gensokyo High School": Chapter 51 - Sneaking an Ice Pop at Night

After secretly going to Gensokyo High School to see Ryoko Mikado for treatment, Momo got a way to get rid of this abnormal state, but the doubts in her heart were not resolved, and she became even more puzzled by her mysterious smile.

"What do you mean by saying you're all grown up now, that biological instincts don't need to be taken too seriously, and that going back to exercise more will prevent you from overthinking?"

If Mengmeng didn't trust the other person's medical skills, she would have seriously questioned the treatment plan she offered.

After increasing her exercise with some skepticism, she found that when she saw Mu Huai again, she no longer had those worldly desires and was able to face him with a calm mind.

Her secret workout routine was discovered by the other two members of the "Serious Weight Loss Alliance"—Anna Hanami and Nana—and successfully got the two, who treated their daily workouts like clocking in for work, to voluntarily add extra workouts.

The weight loss didn't even last for half a month. When they weighed themselves again, they found that they had not only lost weight, but were even lighter than before.

"Very good!!!"

When Banai saw Anja rush out of the bathroom excitedly, she immediately jumped into Mu Huai's arms as he waited outside. Her plump legs wrapped around his waist and her ankles crossed, the hot, soft flesh making it hard for him to breathe.

"Waaaaah~ Finally... finally I can eat normally again!"

Large tears fell like a torrential downpour, instantly soaking Mu Huai's hair. He could only support her bottom with his left hand and gently pat her back with his right hand to soothe her emotions.

Making a foodie go without snacks for half a month, halve their food intake, and still exercise would indeed be unbearable.

After finally calming down, Banami Anzu noticed that she had been washing Mu Huai's face with face wash for a long time, and her tears had soaked the chest of the otter-patterned short-sleeved shirt she was wearing today, revealing the conspicuous black bra underneath.

(I've covered my face... so he probably can't see me, right?)

The girl's thought process was always strange. Rather than getting off him as soon as possible, she was more concerned about whether Mu Huai had seen the style of her underwear today.

He closed his eyes and carefully sensed the even breathing coming from his chest. When he saw that Anzu hadn't seen it, he felt relieved but also disappointed.

(This is a beautiful girl's face wash! How come you, you huge blockhead, aren't you even slightly tempted?)

She completely ignored the fact that she had been undergoing desensitization treatment for Mu Huai for many years, and that this level of physical contact was not enough to cause him to react.

She jumped off him angrily, and saw Anja rush upstairs to his bedroom to get a big T-shirt to change into. She dared not appear in front of other girls with her bra showing through her chest.

Back in the living room, the coffee table piled high with snacks and drinks looked like unparalleled works of art to her, as if they were enveloped in a halo of holy light.

"Gudu!"

The loud drooling attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that Banami Anna's drool was flowing like a waterfall, Mu Huai laughed and handed her a tissue: "Eat if you want, but you still have to be careful not to eat too much. If your weight rebounds, all your efforts during this time will be in vain."

"Slurp—" She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, turned her head away from the snacks, and reluctantly refused: "I'd better not eat them. Maintaining my weight is more important."

After saying this, she turned resolutely and walked towards the entrance, determined to leave this tempting place for the time being.

(This time, I will absolutely not be tempted by delicious food!)

Clearly, Anna Hanami overestimated her resolve. When faced with a raging appetite and hunger, it was as fragile as a sheet of paper, easily punctured.

"Cuckoo~"

My stomach growled with hunger for what felt like the umpteenth time. The moonlight streaming in from the window seemed to have turned into sweet, delicious cream, smearing large swaths of it on the walls.

Anna forced herself to close her eyes tightly, trying to fall asleep quickly, but after being woken up by hunger, it was extremely difficult to fall back asleep, not to mention that she had eaten half as little dinner as she had during her diet.

Because I was worried that if I suddenly returned to my normal food intake, the scale would show a terrible weight the next day. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated.)

"Cuckoo~"

Her empty stomach protested again. Anna could even feel the two stomach walls rubbing against each other in her empty stomach, but she knew very well that this was just a hallucination caused by hunger.

"If I don't find a way to distract myself, I really won't be able to take it anymore."

She sat up abruptly, her eyes quickly scanning the room before finally settling on the phone charging on the bedside table.

"I wonder if Wood is asleep..."

Bana saw Anja smack her lips twice, picked up her phone and turned on the screen, only to find that it was only 1 a.m.

Based on her understanding of Mu Huai, there was a 40% chance he would be awake at this time, and since tomorrow was the weekend, the probability of him staying up late to play games would increase to 60%.
