Chapter 138
"Erina, you and I grew up together since childhood."
"Often, I can guess what you are thinking."
"Therefore, don't try to lie to me..."
"In Erina's heart, the figure of Mineo-kun has long occupied its own place, hasn't it!"
Being under Alice's bright gaze, Erina suddenly became a bit panicked.
Her gaze unconsciously moved in another direction.
"Alice, you... don't just guess... I... I don't have any feelings at all..."
"None..."
Before Erina could finish her sentence, Alice gave a faint smile and said.
"Erina turns out to be a real Tsundere!"
"Facing matters about feelings makes you feel embarrassed, doesn't it?"
"Please, even though Erina is the future heir of our family, and even though Erina is the God's Tongue who has a great reputation in the culinary world."
"But in the end, you are just a young girl."
"Liking someone is a very normal thing to happen."
"Moreover, Mineo-kun... he is indeed a man who is great enough to make all girls feel interested."
"Alright, I won't talk about unnecessary things anymore."
"If Erina still wants to continue acting like a Tsundere, I won't stop you."
"After all, I am different from you; I don't like a lifestyle that requires me to always be restrained."
"Wearing a mask at all times would feel very exhausting."
"How to live happily, that is how I live my life!"
"Being with Mineo, I feel very glad."
"Therefore, I don't want to cover up my heart anymore."
"I, Alice, at this very second officially announce that I will enter a love relationship with Mineo-kun!"
"As for you, Erina, whatever decision you want to take, it's up to you."
"Lastly, I want to remind you, Erina, if you plan to just be a spectator, don't regret it in the future..."
After Alice finished that sentence, she turned around and walked toward the exit.
Erina's heart instantly felt panicked; she immediately pulled Alice's wrist.
"Alice, you..."
"Does Erina want to go out with me?"
Alice turned around, gave a sweet smile, and said.
"Even though Mineo-kun might indeed be a bit of a playboy, it cannot be denied... he truly treats us very well."
"Actually, Erina doesn't mind his playboy habits at all, right... You just think that dating is a very embarrassing thing... so you don't dare to face your own heart."
"If that's the case, let me give you a little courage!"
Alice reached out her small hand, held Erina's wrist tightly, and then "forced" her to be pulled out toward the living room.
After walking until they were in front of Mineo, Alice tilted her head up and looked into Mineo's eyes.
"Mineo-kun, Erina and I have made a decision."
"But before officially giving an answer to you, there is one question I want to ask."
"Besides me and Erina, you have other people you like too, right?"
"How many people have already officially entered a love relationship with you?"
After saying that sentence, Alice and Erina both looked at Mineo with tense feelings.
Mineo was silent for a moment, then said.
"Currently, those who have officially entered a relationship, there are two people."
"So, you are already officially dating two people?"
Hearing Mineo say that he already had two official girlfriends, Alice forced a faint smile to appear.
"Why didn't you choose to hide this from us? With your abilities, you should have been able to handle a problem like this very well."
While locking eyes with Alice, Mineo said with a calm tone.
"Because in some matters, I have no desire to lie to you. A relationship obtained through lies cannot be called a true relationship."
"This is the same as my principle that I will never force my will upon you."
Hearing Mineo's words, Alice and Erina both fell silent.
Next, Alice bit her lower lip slowly and walked closer toward Mineo.
She stood on her tiptoes with effort and brought her face close to Mineo's ear.
Alice could be heard gritting her teeth slowly as she spoke.
"Mineo, I must say, you are the worst man and the biggest playboy in the whole world!"
"But I... but I... seem to still be unable to control myself from liking you..."
This very simple sentence seemed to have drained all the energy in her body.
In the next second, Alice closed both of her eyes. "Starting today, every minute and every second, you must treat us very well!"
"If not... if not, I will bite you to death!"
Following that sentence from Alice, Erina's heart, which had been tense, also instantly became relaxed.
She slightly closed her beautiful eyes and no longer spoke.
Alice tilted her face and actively held Erina's small hand.
With a slight pull of strength, Erina was drawn by Alice to come closer.
After hearing Alice's words, Mineo truly felt very happy.
Unconsciously, he wanted to reach out to wrap Erina and Alice into his embrace.
But unexpectedly, at this very second, Erina and Alice surprisingly had a very high level of synchronization as they lifted their feet simultaneously.
The two cousins, one on the left side and one on the right, stepped on both of Mineo's shoes very hard!
"Mineo, even though we agreed to enter an official relationship with you... you absolutely cannot bully me!"
Alice stepped back a few paces; she laughed like a little fox.
"Wanting to take advantage of this lady? That is still much too early to do!"
"In my mind, currently you are just a candidate for a backup boyfriend. If you want to be promoted to official status, it will be seen from your performance in the future, do you understand?"
After Alice finished that sentence, Erina's face also turned a bit red as she spoke.
"I... I also just... am trying to temporarily enter a relationship with you..."
"You scoundrel... if you dare to bully me... I will definitely be angry."
Hearing the words of the two girls, Mineo felt a little confused. The next second, Mineo showed a mischievous smile.
He moved his thoughts, and a moment later, Alice and Erina suddenly found that their bodies could no longer be controlled.
They floated in the air and immediately flew straight into Mineo's embrace.
Mineo then opened his arms and promptly wrapped the both of them into his hug.
"I won't bully you at all! This is just the force of Earth's gravity..."
Instantly, Alice and Erina became very, very angry!
"Mineo, you scoundrel, let me go right now...!!!"
"Mineo, I will bite you to death... How can you do this?!"
"If you don't let go, I... I'll really be angry!"
