Chapter 436

Open eyes, or not open eyes?

At this moment, for Kurotsuchi, it had become an imminent problem.

She is not a little pig; how could she not feel such a violent action as the Ice Dragon King landing?

It’s just that, hindered by not knowing how to face Mizunuki Ryosuke, she had been pretending to sleep.

This "ostrich behavior" naturally occurred because she hadn’t forgotten that she had snuck out quietly.

Now that she was caught back again, she was naturally full of embarrassment.

Kurotsuchi naturally knew that blind avoidance was not advisable; what should be faced would have to be faced sooner or later.

It’s just that if she opened her eyes now, what should she say? Or rather, what means would Mizunuki Ryosuke use to "deal with" her?

Is there a possibility that Mizunuki Ryosuke would let her go just because she was "asleep"?

Countless thoughts intertwined in Kurotsuchi’s heart; for a moment, her mood became extremely complicated.

As Mizunuki Ryosuke brought her back to the room where he had previously held her under house arrest, Kurotsuchi’s heartbeat became more violent, and the "thump-thump-thump" sound seemed particularly clear in this quiet environment.

Facing Kurotsuchi’s "ostrich pretending to sleep," Mizunuki Ryosuke was naturally clear about it, but he didn’t rush to expose Kurotsuchi’s little thoughts, instead holding Kurotsuchi and walking toward the bedroom.

At this moment, Kurotsuchi panicked completely, her little heart almost jumping out of her chest.

"What is he going to do?"

Feeling Mizunuki Ryosuke’s actions, Kurotsuchi associated it with some things that were not easy to describe too much.

"He wouldn’t be..."

Seeming to think of some possibility, Kurotsuchi’s face instantly turned bright red, and her delicate body was also trembling slightly.

After all, in terms of status at this moment, she was just a little maid of Mizunuki Ryosuke. For a maid, warming the master’s bed seemed like a very normal thing.

Although her status as a "little maid" was forcibly imposed, no one would care about this problem at the moment.

Just when Kurotsuchi was full of crimson associations, she found that she had left that warm embrace and was placed on the bed.

For some reason, a trace of reluctance suddenly flashed in Kurotsuchi’s heart.

It seemed that only that warm embrace was her final destination.

Once this thought appeared, Kurotsuchi was suddenly shocked in her heart.

What was wrong with her? How could such a thought appear? For a moment, Kurotsuchi’s heart was mixed with five flavors, becoming somewhat complicated.

And Mizunuki Ryosuke had absolutely no intention of catering to Kurotsuchi’s "ostrich mentality."

On the contrary, he wanted to completely break Kurotsuchi’s ostrich mentality and deeply engrave the concept that "if you do something wrong, you must accept punishment" into Kurotsuchi’s mind.

"Since you’re awake, stop pretending to sleep."

"Wake up."

Mizunuki Ryosuke looked at the young girl on the bed, eyes closed tightly, eyelashes trembling slightly, face as red as a tomato, and said slowly.

Hearing this, Kurotsuchi’s delicate body trembled. She first tentatively opened her eyes a little, and after seeing Mizunuki Ryosuke standing on the side, she closed them again abruptly.

The appearance of "carrying the ostrich to the end" also made Mizunuki Ryosuke somewhat dumbfounded.

"If you don’t open your eyes again, then don’t blame me for executing 'family law'."

Mizunuki Ryosuke narrowed his eyes and then said unceremoniously, his voice seeming much colder.

At this moment, Kurotsuchi, who had intended to "resist to the end," immediately opened her eyes, sat up slowly on the bed in a "duck sit" posture with a red face, lowered her head, and dared not look up at Mizunuki Ryosuke at all.

What Kurotsuchi didn’t know was that this posture fully exerted her own advantages to the extreme.

A pair of beautiful legs with heaven-defying length and ivory luster entered Ryosuke’s eyes just like that.

At this moment, a deep luster flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke’s eyes.

Kurotsuchi’s head was a mess at this moment; she dared not think at all about what the "family law" Mizunuki Ryosuke mentioned was. She clearly knew that it must be an extremely "dangerous" thing.

"Why, you dare to run away but dare not face it?"

"Is this the capacity of Ms. Kurotsuchi?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke still narrowed his eyes, giving people a dangerous feeling. He said with a hint of teasing, using a provocation method on Kurotsuchi.

"I, I!!"

"That’s not it!"

The strong-willed Kurotsuchi naturally couldn’t stand the stimulation. Hearing Ryosuke say this, she immediately raised her head and retorted to Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Although her eyes were guilty and her face was flushed red, exerting the words "strong outside, weak inside" to the extreme, she still maintained a stubborn appearance to the end.

Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke showed a satisfied smile.

That’s it; it’s interesting to bully her. Otherwise, with a weak appearance, how could he bring himself to do it?

"So, my little maid confesses to the act of sneaking away?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke’s words full of unknown meaning reached Kurotsuchi’s ears. For some reason, after hearing this, Kurotsuchi’s heart and mind became panicked and nervous again, accompanied by a feeling of dry mouth and tongue.

"I, I..."

She opened her mouth stutteringly, wanting to argue something, but didn’t know how to argue for herself.

Although after experiencing many things, Mizunuki Ryosuke was no longer an existence she feared to talk about in her heart, and at the same time, she had developed an inexplicable affection for Mizunuki Ryosuke.

But after all, under the influence of Kurotsuchi’s upbringing, the name Mizunuki Ryosuke had already been equated with "Demon God" in her heart.

So now Kurotsuchi still dared not confront Mizunuki Ryosuke head-on.

Regarding Mizunuki Ryosuke’s statement, she could only choose to default in the end.

"Then since you know you were wrong, shouldn’t you accept punishment?"

The upward arc of Mizunuki Ryosuke’s mouth became more and more obvious. At this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke looked like a big bad wolf enticing a little lamb.

"Hmm..."

Under extreme tension, Kurotsuchi’s small hands were tightly clenched together, her eyes kept wandering outside, and she subconsciously agreed with Mizunuki Ryosuke’s words.

Kurotsuchi’s heart always felt that something was wrong somewhere, but under tension and panic, she could never figure out what was wrong.

It was just that after answering, she vaguely felt some regret.

However, it seemed too late to regret now.

"Very good."

"Then now, please, my little maid, accept the punishment."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Mizunuki Ryosuke no longer restrained his emotions, and an ill-intentioned smile appeared on his face.

Soon, Kurotsuchi felt the approach of "danger," but found that it was already too late.

"Th-that..."

"I, I was wrong..."

"Can you, not punish..."

Kurotsuchi suddenly realized that something was wrong, her delicate body couldn’t help but shrink back, and she begged for mercy in a low voice with a blushing face. Even she herself didn’t notice that her tone was full of unprecedented tenderness at this moment.

This appearance didn’t look like resistance or rejection at all, but rather full of the flavor of "refusing while welcoming."

"What do you think?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke smiled more and more brilliantly. At this moment, a trace of despair flashed in Kurotsuchi’s eyes.

"No, don’t..."

At this moment, Kurotsuchi made her last insignificant struggle with a weak and trembling voice.

Then...

The next day, when Kurotsuchi climbed out of bed, the sun was already high in the sky.

At this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already left for a long time. Looking at the empty bed beside her, Kurotsuchi, who was no longer a young girl, had eyes full of shame and anger.

A feeling that was both sweet and sour filled her heart. For a moment, her expression changed constantly, red for a while and white for a while, and the look on her face was shy for a while and angry for a while, just like a skilled "face-changing artist."

"This guy, I must make him look good!!!"

Kurotsuchi clenched her small fists and shouted, her face full of vigorous anger.

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, looked around with a guilty conscience, and only after seeing that there was indeed no one around did she pat her small chest with relief.

This must never be heard by that hateful big Demon God, otherwise...

Kurotsuchi shyly protected the plump part behind her.
