Yukinoshita's Correction Method

"Great!" Yui Yuigahama exclaimed. "And then, the little goldfish escaped again—can you find it again?"

This time, Yui Yuigahama didn't use her hands to point, but directly asked Xixi.

"Fish!" Xixi slapped the spot where the fish was.

"Wow! She mastered it so quickly!" Yui Yuigahama Saki Kawasaki. "She learns so fast! Is taking care of a baby this fulfilling? I think I'm starting to understand the joy of it!"

"You're happy now..." Saki Kawasaki said helplessly, "Xixi is furious."

Yui Yuigahama: "Huh?"

Chapter 698 Making a Wish

"Didn't you notice how increasingly agitated she was when searching for the fish?" Saki Kawasaki reminded her. "For her, if you find it quickly the first time, and can't find it the second time, she'll help you look once. But the third time, you just ask her for help without even trying it yourself."

"Huh? Is that so?" Yui Yuigahama incredulously, "How could Xixi find it so quickly? Did she see it before? Does she have such a good memory?"

"I don't know if her memory is good or not, but yours is really bad." Saki Kawasaki sighed and rubbed her forehead. "She was just looking at this book, didn't you notice? While we were chatting."

"I was so busy chatting... hehe~" Yui Yuigahama stuck out her tongue shyly, then suddenly looked surprised, "Was Saki Kawasaki paying attention to Xixi the whole time?"

"When there are children around, you must always keep some of your attention on them," Saki Kawasaki sighed wearily. "The quieter the situation, the more vigilant you need to be, otherwise something bad will definitely happen."

"I see..." Yui Yuigahama quickly turned her attention to Xixi. "Thank you, Xixi. Shall we continue watching?"

Dong Yunxi stretched out her small hand and clumsily turned a page.

"Wow, the little goldfish ran into the fruit! Where did it hide this time?" Yui Yuigahama's finger hovered over the page, then suddenly stopped. "Ah, I found it! The little goldfish is hiding here!"

"Ahhh!" Baby Xi clapped her hands happily.

I was encouraged by the baby...

With Yui Yuigahama continued her search for the little goldfish that had escaped and hidden itself.

"Where did the little goldfish hide again?" The last page caught Yui Yuigahama's eye. There were many, many pink goldfish in a large pond. "It turns out that the little goldfish ran out of the fish tank because it wanted to see its friends, so it didn't want to stay alone in the fish tank."

Yui Yuigahama stared blankly at the last painting, a smile appearing on her face, "Now the little goldfish has found friends, and it will never run away again~"

Shio grabbed Yui Yuigahama's hand and pressed it onto the page of the book.

"Huh? Do we have to look at it again?" Yui Yuigahama paused for a moment, then realized something was wrong. "Ah, I haven't found the last one yet, but everyone's has the same one. How am I supposed to find it...? Found it! The one with the brightest eyes is the original goldfish!"

Yui Yuigahama pointed to one of them. "Xixi is amazing, she even noticed that."

Xixi stretched out her little hand and pointed at Yui Yuigahama's head. "Gold... goldfish!"

"Huh?" Yui Yuigahama and lightly touched her pink bun. "So that's why you wanted to watch it with me?"

Xixi nodded.

"So cute~" Yui Yuigahama couldn't help but hug Xixi. "Thank you, Xixi ~"

Xixi leaned against Yui Yuigahama and reached out her little hand—tug!

"Ouch~" Yui Yuigahama tilted her head, "Is this baby really that strong?"

"Pulling hair and pinching hurts!" Saki Kawasaki grabbed a strand of her hair and waved it in front of Xixi to attract her attention and help Yui Yuigahama escape.

"I'm saved~" Yui Yuigahama a sigh of relief, rubbing her head while looking at Xixi with a resentful expression.

Meeting the baby's innocent eyes, a smile returned to her face.

"But it's so cute..." Yui Yuigahama sighed helplessly.

"Don't rush," Saki Kawasaki said, gently pinching Xixi's hair to prevent her from pulling hard. "You'll see how powerful she is when she's two."

"Two years old? There's still a year left... no, only nine months." Yui Yuigahama recalled, "Yukino took care of Xixi for nine months before, so thinking about it, she'll be two years old soon?"

"A little baby will grow into a big baby in the blink of an eye~" Saki Kawasaki patted Xixi's head, "From a good baby to a troublemaker."

"A little baby can't cause any major trouble, right..." Yui Yuigahama, "Of course, except for someone like Yunshan-- "

"I'm home~" Dong Yunshan opened the door.

"Welcome back~" Yukino Yukinoshita walked out of the kitchen, dried her hands on her apron, took Dong Yunshan's bag, and took his coat.

"Thank you, my wife~" Dong Yunshan hugged Yukino Yukinoshita and lowered his head to kiss her.

"They've all arrived..." Yukino Yukinoshita and bumped into his chest.

"Huh?" Dong Yunshan looked up at the others in the living room. "Welcome, welcome~"

Then, the moment Yukino looked up from under the Yukino Yukinoshita, he leaned down and kissed her.

Chu~

Yukino Yukinoshita pinched her waist.

Komachi Hikigaya smiled adorably, revealing her little fangs. "We're practically an old married couple now~"

Yui Yuigahama's face flushed red, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Just one kiss?"

Saki Kawasaki: "What else do you want to see?"

Yui Yuigahama avoided Saki Kawasaki's all-knowing gaze. "I... I thought we were going to kiss for a long time."

"Xixi ~" Dong Yunshan called out as she changed into slippers, "Brother's back~"

"Go wash your hands first." Yukino Yukinoshita hung up his clothes and patted him on the back. "You can hug Xixi after you wash your hands."

"Okay~" Dong Yunshan, having washed her hands, took Xixi from Saki Kawasaki's hands. "Did you miss your brother?"

"Brother~" Xixi called out in her childish voice, hugging Dong Yunshan's neck.

Saki Kawasaki patted Yui Yuigahama: "Say hello to your uncle."

"Saki Kawasaki ~" Yui Yuigahama huffed.

Dong Yunshan: "Hmm?"

"Well... uh... that... right!" Yui Yuigahama finally remembered something, "What were you busy with before?"

"It's still about Cloud Snow Tea. We've been communicating with a large company for a long time, and it was only recently finalized." Dong Yunshan chuckled. "Although it's finalized, we still spent a long time discussing some details."

Saki Kawasaki asked, puzzled, "Work doesn't start until tomorrow, so why are you already so busy today?"

"I was in a bit of a rush, so I brought it a little earlier." Dong Yunshan handed Xixi back to Saki Kawasaki. "I'll go to the kitchen and see if there's anything I can help with."

Yukino Yukinoshita, Dong Yunshan, and Komachi Hikigaya were busy in the kitchen and quickly prepared a large table of dishes, as well as a baby meal for Xixi.

After everyone washed their hands and took their seats, Dong Yunshan lit the candles and presented the birthday cake to Yukino Yukinoshita. Komachi Hikigaya raised her phone to take pictures, Yui Yuigahama led the singing of "Happy Birthday." Saki Kawasaki and Xixi waved their hands together.

Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze swept across the flickering candlelight, bringing everyone into view.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes slowly closed.

Yukino Yukinoshita silently made a wish.

I especially like Chapter 699.

Happy birthday!

Whew~

The warm breath extinguished the candle, Yukino Yukinoshita opened her eyes amidst everyone's cheers.

tide Bao didn't understand what everyone was doing, but she was caught up in their emotions and raised her little hand, shouting, "Happy... birth!"

"Thank you everyone~" Yukino Yukinoshita took a slight breath, steadying her slightly trembling voice. She blinked her large, watery blue eyes, then leaned down and kissed Xixi on the cheek. "Thank you, baby~"

"Giggle~" Dong Yunxi smiled happily.

Dong Yunshan raised his glass. "Happy birthday, my wife!"

Yukino Yukinoshita raised her hand to slap him in annoyance, but then, afraid of setting a bad example for Xixi, she could only touch his chest instead.

"Is it about to begin?" Saki Kawasaki made a move to get up. "Then let's excuse ourselves for a moment."

"It hasn't started yet..." Yukino Yukinoshita puffed out her cheeks slightly.

Yui Yuigahama removed her hands from her face, which were covering her eyes. "Aren't you going to start...?"

Komachi Hikigaya: "You seem disappointed."

"N-no... no way~" Yui Yuigahama blushed, "It was just a little bit..."

Amidst the laughter and jokes, Yukino Yukinoshita gently raised her hand and wiped the corner of her eye.

The moment the warm droplet touched the surface, the action of trying to hide froze.

Under everyone's gaze, Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her cherry lips, and a beautiful, almost dreamlike smile quietly bloomed, "Really... thank you so much..."

Dong Yunshan gently put his arm around Yukino Yukinoshita's shoulder and lowered his head to kiss away the tears at the corner of her eyes.

Yui Yuigahama sniffed, then handed over the gift box with a big smile, "Gift time!"

Yukino Yukinoshita composed herself, took the box, and opened it. "So cute..."

Inside the box were a pair of cat paw gloves and a pair of cat socks.

Yukino Yukinoshita put on cat paw gloves; the snow-white gloves were fluffy and even cuter when she moved, with soft nails on them, and they were extremely warm. "Perfect for winter..."

Yukino Yukinoshita's voice abruptly stopped halfway through her sentence.

Wearing such cute gloves out in public... would be so embarrassing.

Yui Yuigahama and gestured. "Try pressing the pink cushion in your palm."

Yukino Yukinoshita tried bending her fingers slightly and applying pressure.

Chirp chirp~

The cat-shaped gloves made a cute sound, immediately attracting Xixi's attention.

"Oh no!" Komachi Hikigaya clutched her chest. "I'm smitten too."

"I think Keika will like it too." Saki Kawasaki saw Xixi's reaction, "I'll buy her one later."

Yukino Yukinoshita waved her hands, gazing at the fluffy, swaying downy fur, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

Extending her hand to Dong Yunshan, Yukino Yukinoshita moved her fingers. "Let you touch it~"

"It feels so good..." Dong Yunshan rubbed it for a while, then suddenly had a great idea, "Next time we can wear this to the cat cafe!"

Yukino Yukinoshita stared blankly for a moment. "It seems... it really can."

Komachi Hikigaya gave a thumbs up. "Genius!"

Given Yukino Yukinoshita's personality, it's highly unlikely she would wear such cute gloves out.

But if we go to a cat cafe, she'll definitely be willing to wear it.

"And there are cat-themed socks too!" Yui Yuigahama a smug look. "They're indoor socks, perfect since the weather's been cool these past few days."

Yukino Yukinoshita carefully put away her gloves, took out her indoor socks, and discovered a pink, soft, fleshy ball on the bottom of the socks.

"It also has an anti-slip function." Dong Yunshan pinched it, "So you don't have to worry about slipping and falling when you step on the floor."

"Thank you~" Since it's the socks she wears at home, Yukino Yukinoshita doesn't need to worry about them. "I really like them... What are you doing?"

Dong Yunshan rummaged through the box. "I'm looking for cat ears and a cat tail."

"You get me!" Yui Yuigahama. "I was going to buy it, but then I remembered you guys have cat ears."

"Oh right~" Dong Yunshan suddenly realized, "We also have cat tails at home."

Komachi Hikigaya: "Huh?"

"Shut up!" Yukino Yukinoshita and covered Dong Yunshan's mouth.

"Ahem..." Komachi Hikigaya coughed lightly twice. "What a coincidence, the one I gave away was also for home use."

Yukino Yukinoshita opened the gift box handed to her by Komachi Hikigaya, took out the gift inside, and looked somewhat puzzled. "This is... a sweater?"

"Mmm." Komachi Hikigaya smiled slyly, "I was worried the size wouldn't fit, but with this one, a little bigger or a little smaller would both have different effects. You could say that an ill-fitting size is the most suitable."

"Is it only suitable because it's not suitable?" Yukino Yukinoshita carefully examined the light blue sweater in her hand.

It's no wonder she was initially a little confused; as a sweater, the design was somewhat odd.

The striped knit sweater looks perfect from the front, and the sleeveless design neatly showcases the shoulder and arm lines. The neckline is adorned with a white bow, and the length just reaches mid-thigh.

But the back is a completely different story; the fabric is almost entirely gone, leaving the entire back completely exposed.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a small, lonely section of the novel's collar at the back of the neck, and a barely wide edge of a body-hugging garment extending from the side.

If the size is just right, the fabric at the hem of the garment will be just enough to cover up the cute roundness.
