Chapter 385: Sisters together, mandatory mission [10K]

~6 min read 1,025 words

The girl with short purple hair had a slightly flushed face, her eyes flickering with a conflicted look. Her body was somewhat restless, her hands unconsciously gripping and rubbing together, panicked by this decision.

From time to time, she picked up the messages on her phone and read them carefully, afraid of missing important information.

Soon, she put it down again, but her eyes looked back at the phone, as if she felt a new message had arrived.

"How about, how about... Saturday during the day!"

She felt she hadn't made sufficient psychological preparations. Although she hadn't spent much time with Lin Ye, she knew quite a lot about him.

A friend in need is a friend indeed; that eerie trip to 'Eisai High School' made her deeply realize that Lin Ye was a good man worth entrusting her life to.

"If I choose the evening, will I be misunderstood?"

Letting her choose between day and night—was this hinting at something?

Fujibayashi Muku muttered a few words, her little head constantly struggling and wrestling, wanting to make a decision.

"Ahhh!"

She let out a cry, slapped the table, and immediately took out a coin to toss. "Heads for daytime, tails for evening."

'Pat...' The coin lay quietly on the desktop.

Fujibayashi Muku took one look, her slender fingers began editing on the phone, and soon, she clicked send—Tomorrow evening! I have time tomorrow evening.

After sending it, Fujibayashi Muku's heart was in chaos. "This, this was the coin's choice, Lin-kun, please don't overthink it."

She waited for Lin Ye's reply, but it was long in coming, so Fujibayashi Muku went to wash up and bathe first.

When she finished, she found that her sister had already returned and was sitting on the sofa resting.

"Sister, how was going out to relax today?"

"It was quite good. The tonkotsu ramen at the ramen shop Muku recommended tasted very good."

The only pity was meeting that man.

Fujibayashi Kyou thought silently in her heart.

"Right, right! That's the noodle shop Ren recommended. The ramen is delicious. Next time, we sisters should go together again!"

"Okay."

Fujibayashi Kyou naturally wouldn't refuse her sister's invitation. She looked at her sister's wet hair, patted the spot beside her, and signaled for her sister to sit down.

Fujibayashi Muku was a bit puzzled, but she walked over and sat down. Fujibayashi Kyou could smell the sweet scent of body wash radiating from her sister after her bath.

"Muku, I plan to go to Tokyo to take a look tomorrow."

"Eh!"

Fujibayashi Muku was astonished. "Sister, you're going to Tokyo to..."

"Play. I'm taking a few days off. I feel like staying in Chiba all the time is meaningless, so I plan to go to Tokyo to look around."

She looked at her sister, seemingly wanting to discover something from her reaction. Soon,

"Mm-hmm, that's also quite good. Sister, you should go! You must have fun, and remember to bring me a small gift."

Fujibayashi Kyou's heart sank; she had captured her sister's joyful reaction.

For Fujibayashi Muku,

Since her sister Fujibayashi Kyou was going to Tokyo tomorrow, she wouldn't need to find excuses to go out alone anymore. Even if she stayed out overnight tomorrow, her sister wouldn't know.

She was very clear about her sister's hostile attitude toward Lin-kun. If her sister knew she was going on a date with Lin-kun tomorrow night, her sister definitely wouldn't agree and might even interfere crudely.

And now, her sister was actually going to Tokyo to play; this was just too coincidental.

Fujibayashi Muku only felt that her luck today was very good.

She didn't even need to find an excuse for tomorrow night's date; she didn't even need to lie to her sister that she was 'working overtime at the hospital.'

"Muku, you come with me."

"Ah! I, I have to work tomorrow. Sister, you wouldn't make me ask for leave, would you? Even if I wanted to ask for leave today, it's too late; the hospital schedule is packed."

Asking for leave on short notice, unless it's a special event, is generally not approved.

Fujibayashi Muku showed a troubled expression.

"You're off the day after tomorrow. We can just leave tomorrow evening. Sister will wait for you at the hospital entrance tomorrow evening after you get off work, and we'll go to Tokyo together."

As the words fell, Fujibayashi Muku felt constant astonishment in her heart; she even suspected for a moment if her sister knew about her date with Lin-kun.

But she hadn't mentioned the date, and Lin-kun couldn't have proactively told Fujibayashi Kyou, and since her sister hated Lin Ye so much, it was even more impossible for her to proactively contact Lin Ye, so... this must be an accident!

"Sister, how about next time when I'm on rotation? I want to rest well this weekend and not travel far to Tokyo to play. Next time, I will definitely accompany you to explore Tokyo properly. This time, why don't you go to Tokyo alone? I... I'm sorry, Sister."

Fujibayashi Muku apologized embarrassedly.

She hoped her sister would go to Tokyo, or at the very least, stay in Chiba and not affect her date with Lin-kun tomorrow.

"I see. I'll go alone."

Fujibayashi Kyou already understood her sister's thoughts.

Letting her sister go on a date with Lin Ye was absolutely impossible.

But now, she didn't intend to expose it. Exposing it and demanding her sister go would only cause her sister's rebellious psychology and might even instantly tear apart the relationship between them.

She had a more suitable method.

"Mm-hmm, Sister, it's getting late, you should hurry and go take a bath too!"

Under Fujibayashi Muku's suggestion, Fujibayashi Kyou headed to the bathroom.

'Splash, splash'—the warm water washed over her body. Her fair skin began to glow with a slight blush under the slightly high water temperature. Fujibayashi Kyou closed her eyes and let the warm water wash over her.

The small bathroom was filled with a faint mist, and the glass had already been stained with a pale white fog.

"Muku,"

She whispered softly. ===== CHAPTER 386 =====
