Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 122

Because of Mahiru's fall, the clothes she had folded were scattered on the ground.

Su Qing stepped forward and immediately checked on Zhen Zhou's condition. Only after ensuring that she was safely placed on the beanbag chair, which served as a "buffer," did he feel relieved.

Then he noticed the few neatly folded pieces of clothing and most of the clothes scattered on the ground.

Su Qing didn't say anything to Zhen Zhou immediately. She simply put down her schoolbag and began to quietly clean up the mess on the ground.

After tidying up, Su Qing sat down on the sofa next to her.

Meanwhile, Mahiru remained in almost the same posture as before, except that she now had a pillow in her arms.

This cushion was the one that Mahiru had secretly taken while Su Qing was packing her clothes, with lightning speed.

Despite Mahiru's strong sense of "stealing," Su Qing still managed to see through her series of small actions.

Su Qing didn't quite understand why she had taken this cushion.

"You should have packed up your clothes by now, right?" Su Qing suddenly asked.

"I've got it."

"That's good." Although Mahiru couldn't see, Su Qing still nodded.

Then, he rested his chin on his hand, staring intently at Mahiru, who was now even more deeply engrossed in her thoughts, and casually asked in a low voice:

"How long are you going to maintain this position?"

Perhaps sensing Su Qing's gaze, Mahiru's body stiffened even more, as if frozen in place. Her leg muscles tensed up, as if she was trying to suppress some emotion.

Because she had just taken a shower, Mahiru, who had changed into her autumn pajamas, wasn't wearing her usual over-the-knee socks.

This resulted in ten toes, as tender as bamboo shoots in spring, being completely exposed to the air. At this moment, due to excessive tension, they curled up together, as if seeking some kind of security.

After hearing Su Qing's words, Mahiru realized that her behavior was extremely impolite.

Therefore, even though the current situation is awkward, she knows she can no longer bury her head in the sand.

However, just as she turned her head, revealing a pure eye, her gaze met Su Qing's smiling eyes.

In an instant, Mahiru was like a frightened fawn caught in the sight of a predator. After a moment of panic flashed in her eyes, she buried her head deep back into her "safe house".

"I...I'm not feeling well today, I'd like to lie here for a while!"

Mahiru didn't know what was wrong with her. She felt her mind was blank, especially after meeting Su Qing's gaze, her brain completely shut down.

In her panic, she even started telling little lies.

Unlike the stench of ordinary lies, Mahiru's little lies have a hint of the sweetness of candied apples.

"is it?"

"Yes..." As if thinking Su Qing didn't believe her, Mahiru didn't care about anything else and rubbed her head up and down on the sofa.

This is a nodding gesture.

"Oh..." Su Qing let out a meaningful sigh, then stood up and said:

"Then you should lie down here for a while, I still have some things to do."

"Okay...go ahead."

Mahiru secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she had actually been holding it in for ages.

She made up her mind that after Su Qing went to do what he needed to do, she would get up, breathe some fresh air, adjust her state, and properly apologize for her rudeness!

"Am I really going?" Su Qing asked again.

"Go ahead, it's alright... don't worry about me."

Thinking that Su Qing was taking his words seriously, Zhenzhou had some doubts, but didn't pay much attention to it.

It seems I'll have to apologize for deceiving them later...

Clearly, even angels make mistakes.

What is this called?

This is called concurrent punishment for multiple crimes.

“You said it yourself,” Su Qing said out of the blue.

Then, Mahiru heard footsteps, but they stopped quickly, presumably because Su Qing had left to do what he said he wanted to do.

Mahiru, of course, wouldn't miss this opportunity.

She cautiously raised her head, like a frightened bird.

First, her hair on her forehead lifted slightly, then her long eyelashes trembled gently, and finally, her two bright, jewel-like eyes were vigilantly observing her surroundings.

After confirming that Su Qing was indeed not there, she breathed a sigh of relief and revealed her fair and rosy face.

Worried about disturbing Su Qing, Zhen Zhou took small breaths to get fresh air.

After a short while, she felt she had caught enough air and was about to get up.

However, at that moment, she felt an unfamiliar force in her legs, like an electric current coursing through every corner of her body from bottom to top.

The sudden feeling of comfort made Mahiru unable to hold back, and she let out a pleasant groan.

"Ah~"

"How's this pressure?"

Behind them came Su Qing's slightly amused voice.

Of course, it could only be Su Qing.

"Very good...but I think we could use a little more force..."

Although Mahiru was initially flustered by such close contact without any preparation, she quickly calmed down after hearing Su Qing's uniquely gentle voice.

Now, under Su Qing's question without any explanation, Mahiru's face showed a comfortable expression, and she then stammered out her request.

[How strange... how did it turn out like this?]

Mahiru felt she must be confused; didn't Su Qing just say she had something to do?

She was hoping that Su Qing would leave for a little while, giving her time to adjust her emotions!

"You...didn't you say you had things to do?" Mahiru asked, barely suppressing the shameful moan that was about to escape her lips.

"Yes, there are things to do." Su Qing nodded, but her hands didn't stop moving.

"So, isn't this already underway?"

Because of the increased frequency of slapping her thighs and the further increase in the intensity of the massage, Mahiru, who was already on the verge of danger, could no longer bear the shame.

"Ah...ah~"

In the quiet living room, only the girl's shy voice lingered, echoing for a long time.

……

P.S.: This is a legitimate massage and stretching exercise (just kidding).

Chapter 167 Stars and Night

"Huh...huh..."

As if all her strength had been drained, Mahiru slumped limply onto the soft sofa. Her beautiful face was flushed, and a few glistening beads of sweat clung to her forehead, as if telling the story of a fierce battle she had just experienced.

Her once neat and smooth hair now appeared somewhat disheveled, with a few strands clinging to her rosy cheeks, adding to her alluring charm.

Should I take another shower later?

Mahiru thought to herself.

"If I remember correctly, I was the one massaging your muscles to relax them just now. You didn't exert any effort, did you?" Seeing Mahiru's expression, Su Qing was both amused and exasperated, then began to defend herself.

He was the one who was moving, and he hadn't even complained of being tired yet, so why was Mahiru covered in sweat?

In the end, it was Mahiru who couldn't stand it anymore and called for a stop, and only then did he stop.

"Yes, that's right..." Mahiru couldn't think of a good excuse. People sweat when they're nervous, and that's something she can't control!

"How are you feeling? Have you relaxed a bit?" Su Qing asked with a smile and a shake of her head.

"Hmm...it really feels a lot more relaxed." After going through Su Qing's process, which was both painful and comfortable, Mahiru was surprised to find that her body really felt much lighter.

To be more specific... it's like I used to be carrying a weight of about 2.5 kilograms, and I've only just been able to finally unload it.

Although it wasn't much, my body definitely felt a bit lighter.

"That's good." Su Qing could also observe that Mahiru's current condition was indeed better than before; at least her muscles were noticeably less stiff.

Do you have a habit of doing yoga or similar exercises?

"Yes... I have been practicing yoga regularly, but how did you know?" Mahiru asked curiously.

If it were anyone else, Mahiru would have already begun to suspect that the other person was spying on her.

But if it were Su Qing, that possibility wouldn't exist.

"It's nothing... I just feel like your muscles aren't quite right." Because of the massage, Su Qing stretched her arms a little, and then said:

"After each yoga session, you can pat your thigh muscles to relax your body tissues, just like I did just now."

"I... I do these things every time I finish yoga..." Mahiru said weakly.

She has been practicing yoga for a long time, so it's impossible that she doesn't know the importance of relaxing her muscles after exercising.

"That means it wasn't done well enough, or it wasn't done for long enough."

“I think…it’s very likely,” Mahiru agreed.

Because she never experienced any abnormal symptoms the day after each session, Mahiru didn't pay much attention to it. However, after Su Qing relaxed like that, she realized the difference between the two.

"How about... you come find me after you finish your yoga session, and I'll teach you how to stretch better?" Su Qing suggested after thinking for a moment.

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?" Although she really wanted to agree, Mahiru still had some concerns.

"It's nothing." Su Qing shook her head, then looked at the pile of clothes beside her and smiled:

"Even if it's troublesome, I don't think it's as troublesome as someone taking in my laundry and folding it neatly for me when I'm not home because of the rain, right?"

"You...you knew all along?" Mahiru asked softly, her face slightly flushed.

"...Isn't this obvious?" Su Qing asked, puzzled.

"Then, aren't you angry?"

"What are you angry about?"

“That’s…that’s…”

Mahiru, like a child who had done something wrong, lowered her head and whispered:

"He touched your clothes without your permission..."

"Is it possible? I'm so grateful that you helped me put it away, how could I be angry?" Su Qing just thought Mahiru was really cute at this moment. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Mahiru had really done something terribly wrong.

"But..." Mahiru hesitated, clearly wanting to say something more.

"But what?"

Su Qing bent down, trying to find those familiar caramel-colored eyes.

"Is it okay to wear close-fitting or underwear?"

[I said it...I said it out loud...]

Will he think I'm a pervert...?

"..."

Su Qing also fell silent in response to Mahiru's innocent words.

Actually, it's impossible not to feel awkward.

He could also understand Mahiru's series of strange reactions.

Put yourself in her shoes. If you went to her house when she wasn't home, and Mahiru happened to come back at that moment and found you holding her underwear, you'd probably be in an awkward situation too.

wrong……

Why did I go to Mahiru's house with those strange things?

Thinking of this, Su Qing looked at the source of all evil—Mahiru—with an extremely complicated expression.
