Yukinoshita's Correction Method

Yukino Yukinoshita pushed his hand away and adjusted it one last time. "How is it?"

"Extremely beautiful."

"Huh?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked up in confusion. "What did you say?"

"You..." Dong Yunshan looked at his girlfriend in front of him.

The purple yukata was bound by a gold belt, and the combination of light-colored diamond and circular patterns was intricate yet orderly, highlighting the pale red peony pattern, which was as lovely as the blush on a young girl's cheeks.

Her once loose, jet-black hair was now braided into a soft plait, which, because of its looseness, gave it a delicate texture, draped gracefully over her right shoulder and down in front of her.

"What are you saying all of a sudden..." Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lower lip lightly. Seeing Dong Yunshan staring at her intently, she lowered her head and gently bumped into his chest.

"You're talking about my girlfriend..."

"Shut up~" Yukino Yukinoshita grabbed Dong Yunshan's hand and pulled her forward.

Even from the side, you could see the lovely blush on Dong Yunshan's face.

Considering the large number of people and poor cell phone signal, the two agreed to meet at a location a little further away, which would take some time to walk there.

After walking a few steps, Yukino Yukinoshita finally calmed down a little.

Dong Yunshan blinked. "A yukata suits you very well."

Yukino Yukinoshita glared at her. "You still dare to say that?"

"And her hairstyle is perfect for a yukata."

"Gurgle..."

"The combination is both cute and elegant~"

Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly stopped in her tracks. "After all that talk, you still haven't kissed me—wait~"

The unfinished words became even more indistinct, her curved eyelashes trembled slightly, Yukino Yukinoshita closed her eyes.

Fortunately, this place is some distance from the scene, so there aren't that many people here...

"Ah, Yunshan!" Yui Yuigahama's cheerful voice rang out, "Little Yukino hasn't arrived yet... Huh?"

Yui Yuigahama approached, she finally saw Yukino Yukinoshita, who was being blocked by Dong Yunshan.

"It seems Yukino hasn't arrived yet." Komachi Hikigaya grabbed Yui Yuigahama's hand. "Then let's head over there!"

The two left, turning back every few steps.

Yukino Yukinoshita was still clinging to Dong Yunshan.

She buried her face in his chest, hiding it completely.

Dong Yunshan gently patted her back. "They've already gone far away."

Yukino Yukinoshita lifted her head in his arms, blushing and glaring at him with eyes full of embarrassment, anger, and accusation.

Dong Yunshan looked completely innocent. "You were the one who said you wanted to kiss me..."

"I didn't say that." Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips. "It was you who suddenly... suddenly kissed me."

"Is that so?" Dong Yunshan lowered her head slightly.

Yukino Yukinoshita subconsciously parted her cherry lips slightly and stood on tiptoe—no!

Her gaze towards Dong Yunshan grew even angrier.

It's all because Dong Yunshan always wants to kiss, so whenever he wants to, she subconsciously... prepares herself.

Her small hand touched Dong Yunshan's waist, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes narrowed slightly. "Isn't that right?"

"I don't think it was particularly sudden..." Dong Yunshan sensed that Yukino Yukinoshita was already prepared, "But it was definitely me who made the first move."

Yukino Yukinoshita a soft hum and removed her hand from Dong Yunshan's waist.

Then she took his hand.

The observation tower facing Chiba Port reflects the world below with its mirror-like exterior, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun and overlapping the shadows of the crowd.

People chatted and laughed loudly, exchanging pleasant glances.

The roadside was lined with all sorts of stalls, and nearby convenience stores and pubs also set up stalls outside to sell their goods. Restaurants were also making a big fuss about watching the fireworks, trying their best to attract customers.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked around with great interest, then shook Dong Yunshan's hand, saying, "So that's how it is?"

"Hmm?" Dong Yunshan asked curiously, "Haven't you participated before?"

"That was a long time ago..." Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes flickered. "Do you participate often?"

"I organized a fireworks picnic with my classmates when I was in junior high," Dong Yunshan sighed. "They really know how to make a ruckus."

Yukino Yukinoshita, holding Dong Yunshan's hand, started shaking it again. "Just thinking about it, I know it won't be easy, so why bother organizing it?"

"Because I'm graduating soon and moving back to Chiba, I wanted to keep this as a memento."

"Moving back to Chiba...?" Yukino Yukinoshita asked curiously, "Speaking of which, was it because of your parents' work that you left Chiba back then?"

"I guess so. Before I was born, my parents moved around a lot because of some minor troubles, and only settled down later." Dong Yunshan paused. "Speaking of which, if you have time, would you like to have a meal together?"

Chapter 380 Intertwined Fingers

"Let's have a meal together...?" Yukino Yukinoshita's shaking of Dong Yunshan's arm froze instantly. "With your parents?"

"Yes, I've already met your parents."

"It was a chance encounter." Yukino Yukinoshita tightened her grip on Dong Yunshan's hand slightly. "I...I'm not ready yet."

"Shall I arrange a chance encounter?"

Yukino Yukinoshita glared at him. "Was that still a chance encounter?"

"Actually, there's no need to prepare anything special," Dong Yunshan said softly. "They're all very easy to get along with, and..."

Dong Yunshan paused, thinking about how best to put it.

"And I rarely interfere with your decisions." Yukino Yukinoshita understood his thoughts. "There's nothing to hide."

"So once I've made up my mind, you don't need to worry about anything."

"That's not quite right. There are still many things to consider." Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head. "Besides, rarely interfering doesn't mean not interfering at all. I hope... I hope to leave them with a good impression."

"Then you've succeeded," Dong Yunshan reminded him. "Xixi can vouch for it."

Xixi... Yukino Yukinoshita momentarily dazed.

Xixi can stand up now, and she even meows when she sees a picture book of cats.

"That's different..." Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lower lip lightly, "Wait...wait a little longer..."

Dong Yunshan paused for a moment, then said, "Alright, I'll do as you say."

"I... I don't mean I don't want to see them, what I mean is... um..." Yukino Yukinoshita looked up, a hint of panic in her eyes, her lips moved, uttering a soft sound, "After you've thought it through... there are still some things..."

Dong Yunshan spoke first, "Yukino."

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips, her watery eyes gazing at him.

"Look here." Dong Yunshan held up their intertwined hands and shook them. "I can sense your nervousness, so I understand what you're thinking."

as always.

Yukino Yukinoshita stared at their intertwined hands...

Chu~

A gentle kiss landed on the back of Dong Yunshan's hand.

"Huh?" Dong Yunshan blinked. "Just the back of your hand?"

"There are too many people..." Yukino Yukinoshita hid their hands, her eyes darting around erratically. "I... I want candied apples!"

Rock sugar coated the apple's surface, with a small stick inserted as a handle; it was crystal clear and red, like Yukino Yukinoshita that moment.

One bite, accompanied by a crisp crunch, and the sweetness of rock sugar intertwines with the refreshing tartness of the apple, spreading wildly.

Yukino Yukinoshita's icy blue eyes narrowed happily, then she held the apple candy to Dong Yunshan's lips. "You try it."

"Mmm~" Dong Yunshan lowered her head and took a bite, nodding in satisfaction. "It's really good."

"But it's so big..." Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze drifted to the takoyaki next to her.

"Try whatever you want to eat," Dong Yunshan said, following her gaze. "I'm here for you."

"I want to eat takoyaki!"

Okay~

Steaming hot takoyaki, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, features a savory and chewy batter and tender octopus chunks, complemented by the smoky flavor of bonito flakes and the refreshing crunch of seaweed flakes. Most importantly...

Dong Yunshan held the leftover candied apple that Yukino Yukinoshita had eaten in one hand and carried her small cloth bag in the other, both hands busy.

Yukino Yukinoshita used a wooden skewer to pick up a takoyaki, her cherry lips slightly upturned, carefully blowing on it to cool it down. After confirming the temperature was right with her lips, she handed it to Dong Yunshan's mouth.

"Aww~" Dong Yunshan took a bite and savored it carefully.

Yukino Yukinoshita stared at his expression. "How does it taste?"

"Tasty!"

"I feel the same way." Yukino Yukinoshita forked a piece of food and was about to eat it.

Dong Yunshan seemed thoughtful. "However..."

"Hmm?" Yukino Yukinoshita paused. "But what?"

"But it would taste even better if you gave it a couple more kisses."

"H-How could this be..." Yukino Yukinoshita puffed out her cheeks slightly, "Besides, I was testing the temperature, that's not..."

"Shall we try again?"

"Try it..." Yukino Yukinoshita looked at the takoyaki, blew on it gently twice, and then tested the temperature with her lips.

That way, the flavor won't change at all.

Just as she was thinking this, Dong Yunshan lowered her head and checked the temperature for her. "Hmm, just right."

Yukino Yukinoshita was holding the wooden skewer, trembled slightly before regaining its composure.

There shouldn't be any change in taste... right?

Yukino Yukinoshita and savors it carefully.

It tasted the same as before, the temperature was about the same, and the ingredients were the same.

But...

"How is it?" Dong Yunshan's eyes were full of laughter. "Has it become even tastier?"

"No, not at all." Yukino Yukinoshita avoided his gaze and answered truthfully, "It just feels different—I want to eat apple candy again."

"That's the feeling I'm after." Dong Yunshan held the apple candy to Yukino Yukinoshita's lips.

Taking a small bite, Yukino Yukinoshita confirmed her guess.

The taste is still the same, only the feeling is different.

The taste didn't get any better.

It just tastes better now.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at the takoyaki in her hand, then at the food in Dong Yunshan's hand. "I'm not eating it. You eat the rest."

Dong Yunshan ate the apple candy in a few bites, Yukino Yukinoshita handed her the takoyaki.

After finishing the remaining Yukino Yukinoshita, Dong Yunshan had a half-eaten Choco banana in her hand.

Then there's Chiba Prefecture's specialty peanut monaka crackers, lobster senbei, and soy sauce-grilled green onions...

"Hmm?" Yukino Yukinoshita stopped and stared at the stall full of gifts and ropes. "What's this...?"

"Want to give it a try?" the stall owner asked with a broad smile. "We have all sorts of luxury gifts, including a PS3, which would be a perfect gift for your boyfriend."

Yukino Yukinoshita turned her gaze to Dong Yunshan.

The ropes tied to the prizes extended upwards, converged into a bundle, and then hung down, so densely packed that they were impossible to distinguish.

In fact, it's questionable whether the rope tied to the luxury prize even dangled down.

"The expectation of winning a PS3 in the raffle is far higher than buying it directly." Yukino Yukinoshita looked to the other side, "Compared to luck..."
