The next morning.
When Lin Xi woke up, Fern was already gone.
Frieren was still sound asleep.
She seemed to be treating Lin Xi as a body pillow, rubbing her cheek against him from time to time.
Just like Fern said.
Frieren wasn't afraid of heat, but she was afraid of the cold.
It seemed that his embrace was too warm, so Frieren showed a lazy, salted fish-like appearance, unwilling to get out of bed.
Lin Xi still had to go to school, so he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then carefully peeled off her arms hugging him and left the room.
Passing by the stairs, he happened to meet Fern, who was already dressed neatly. He smiled and greeted her.
Fern's cheeks flushed red, and she responded somewhat unnaturally, then turned and ran back to the room.
Looking at Frieren, who was still sound asleep, she couldn't help but puff up her cheeks.
"Lady Frieren, you're too carefree! You can still sleep so soundly."
Looking at it this way, Lady Frieren doesn't actually dislike Mr. Lin Xi.
… … …
After washing up, Lin Xi was about to go to the living room.
But he happened to run into Sakurajima Mai, "Yo, my scandal-ridden celebrity senior, good morning."
"Mm, good morning, perverted junior."
Sakurajima Mai replied calmly.
Lin Xi's mouth twitched, "Are you serious about this nickname?"
"Otherwise? A perverted junior who embraces one today and another tomorrow, is there a problem with this senior calling you that?"
Alright, pervert has become a lecher.
Lin Xi shook his head, not caring about her nickname.
"Senior Mai, you went to see your mother yesterday, what was the situation?"
She was more concerned about yesterday's matter, so she asked.
Sakurajima Mai's mouth curved into a smile.
She seemed very satisfied with his question.
The girl stepped on his foot with her long legs wrapped in black silk.
"What do you think? My scandal-ridden junior-kun ~"
"Without that strange phenomenon, I'm a well-known high school actress, and my mother is my manager. Yesterday, my phone was blown up by fans."
"They kept asking about your identity and whether I already have a boyfriend."
"So, be happy, my mother said she wants to meet you this afternoon."
"No problem!"
Lin Xi grabbed the little foot stepping on him, felt the touch of the senior's beautiful legs, calmly moved it away, and then said with a serious face, covering his heart:
"Mai, I will definitely satisfy my mother-in-law! So that my mother-in-law can rest assured and hand you over to me."
"Tch, you really dare to say that. I haven't admitted that you're my boyfriend yet, isn't it too early to call her mother-in-law now?"
Lin Xi smiled cheekily, "It's only a matter of time."
These narcissistic words earned him a glare from the senior.
"You wish, you won't have any chance until you change your philandering bad habits!"
Lin Xi shrugged helplessly, "Sorry, please pretend I didn't say that just now, forget it."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Sakurajima Mai gritted her teeth in anger, secretly cursing him as a scumbag.
Although she said that, she didn't actually think about making him abandon others.
However, thinking about her mother's words, she became nervous again.
At that time, this guy won't talk nonsense, right.
"Ah, by the way, Senior Mai, if your mother wants to see me, tell her she has to line up."
"I have an appointment with my classmates to go singing together this afternoon, so the meeting has to be postponed."
Lin Xi suddenly turned his head and said.
Sakurajima Mai's cheeks puffed up.
"Is your classmate's matter important, or is your senior's matter important? Tell me clearly!"
"Well, I think… they're equally important, so have your mother come to Sakura Dorm tonight to find me."
"Alright."
Sakurajima Mai nodded helplessly.
That's the only way.
Lin Xi turned to look at her with a smile that wasn't a smile, "So, Mai, what exactly did you say to your mother-in-law?"
"Don't call me that, it's so cheesy, who… who allowed you to call me that?"
Sakurajima Mai glared at him shyly, but honestly explained the course of events.
"What else could I say? I don't want to leave Sakura Dorm right now, otherwise that strange phenomenon will appear again, and I'll probably disappear from this world."
"Therefore, I told my mother that I'm currently dating you and living together."
"Uh, if you say that, your manager and mother can agree?"
Sakurajima Mai is a well-known actress, and a high school student at that. If a scandal breaks out, it might generate buzz, but confirming the dating setting would lose a large portion of fans.
"Of course she doesn't agree, so isn't she thinking of coming over to see you? Landlord-dono, you have to be responsible for handling it."
"No problem, leave it to me."
Lin Xi patted his chest to guarantee.
"I've already imagined the scene of my mother-in-law throwing money at me."
Sakurajima Mai touched her chin and nodded, "Indeed, with her style, she'll probably ask you how much money you want to break up with me."
Lin Xi rolled his eyes, "And then send me to the police station on charges of extortion, right?"
"Uh, it shouldn't be that bad, my mother will still consider my feelings… probably?"
"Are you serious with that question?" Lin Xi was very speechless. Even Mai Sakurajima herself wasn't sure about her mother's personality.
"How do you guys usually get along?"
Mai Sakurajima sighed.
"How else can we get along? I'm more like a cash cow. Ever since I started as a child star and entered the entertainment industry, I've been acting."
"Mom took a movie role for me without considering my wishes. I probably won't be able to return to school for the next month."
Lin Xi suddenly held her shoulders. "If there are any kissing scenes, reject them for me."
Mai Sakurajima was stunned, then spat.
"You even care about this? What's your position to care about this?"
"Of course, your most handsome junior fan!"
"Tch… no sincerity."
Mai Sakurajima pouted, but still guaranteed, "Don't worry, I never take kissing scenes."
"I just like acting, but that doesn't mean I accept unspoken rules."
"So, are you satisfied with this answer, you perverted fan?"
"Satisfied."
Lin Xi nodded with a smile, then suddenly opened his arms and hugged her.
"Oh, are you finally going to make a move on me?" Mai Sakurajima's delicate body trembled, and she said through gritted teeth.
"No, I just want to hug you. After all, I won't be able to see you for a month."
"Remember to call me if anything happens. As the landlord, I won't let go of my beautiful tenant!"
"Are you serious when you say that? I can call the police, you perverted junior."
The girl complained, but couldn't help but raise her hand to hug his waist, feeling the embrace.
"Thank you, Lin Xi."
"You're welcome. After all, I'm taking advantage of you."
When Mai Sakurajima heard this, she raised her small leather shoe and stepped on his foot.
… … …
After breakfast.
Lin Xi woke up Shiina Mashiro as usual, and then sent her to Suiko with Akakawa Mahiru.
They happened to meet Aoyama Nanami, so he asked Aoyama Nanami to take care of her.
Aoyama Nanami also agreed with a smile.
She was still thinking about moving into Sakura Dormitory at the end of the month, so naturally she wouldn't refuse the landlord's request.
Mai Sakurajima went to school one step ahead.
She was just going to school to sign in.
She had to show her face before going to shoot an advertisement that her mother had just taken.
Next, Lin Xi and Shiina Mahiru boarded the train together.
They met Misakino Sumireko on the way, so they teamed up together.
However, Lin Xi seemed to have used up all his luck today.
There were no seats available.
There was no way, he had to stand with the two girls.
Perhaps the policy has changed.
There were also more office workers on the train.
Lin Xi then let Mahiru and Sumireko stand against the wall, while he blocked others.
Misakino Sumireko inadvertently glanced to the side, and her body trembled suddenly. She quickly pounced into Lin Xi's arms and buried her head in his chest.
Lin Xi looked at her suspiciously, and he also looked around, and immediately saw a delicate young man.
It was Hazuki Tamio!
Beside him were cherry-colored hair and blue-haired beautiful girls with magnificent chests.
Sakurahara Momo and Kusakabe Yuzuki.
At this moment, Hazuki Tamio and the three of them also looked at Lin Xi and the person in his arms in surprise, with an expression of wanting to say something but stopping.
Lin Xi glanced at it and stopped paying attention.
Regarding the arrival of Hazuki Tamio, he probably had a guess…
