Madam, believe me, how can I be a minotaur?

Noticing her choice, even Asano Makoto, who had planned everything, couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.

Could she really endure this?

"Yuuka, I'm here," he said.

He raised an eyebrow, leaned close to Konno Yuuka's ear, and whispered a sentence. Then, his right hand, which was on her thigh, began to caress and slowly move upwards.

Asano Makoto's technique was gentle, yet it carried a hint of teasing.

Konno Yuuka clearly became more nervous, even trembling slightly.

In Asano Makoto's original expectations, she should have been unable to bear it and gotten out of bed by now, but who would have thought she could endure so much.

However, now that things had developed to this point, the words Asano Makoto had just said were not just for show.

His right hand continued to slide slowly and steadily towards that goal, while Konno Yuuka continued to endure, her body trembling slightly, trying not to make a sound.

No one knew why she was enduring like this, perhaps not even she herself.

However, when Asano Makoto's hand reached the root of her thigh, about to climb that pert peach mountain.

Konno Yuuka could no longer pretend.

But just then, Asano Makoto suddenly retracted his hand, and at the same time, he sighed and said quickly: "I didn't expect you were really asleep, it seems I was overthinking—"

"Asa—!"

He didn't finish his sentence, because Konno Yuuka had already turned around, her face flushed, and sat up from the bed.

And Konno Yuuka didn't finish her sentence either, she only said one word, because she heard Asano Makoto's unfinished sentence.

In an instant, they both fell silent.

The two of them stared at each other without saying a word, and the atmosphere in the air began to become more and more awkward.

Chapter 266: Can't Sleep Tonight

Hearing Asano Makoto's words, Konno Yuuka was directly stunned, and the words that had just reached her lips could not be spoken.

So, Asano-kun was just testing if I was pretending to be asleep, and not really going to do anything to me?

Thinking of this, Konno Yuuka instantly felt very regretful.

Why couldn't I have persevered for even just one more second?

That way I could continue to pretend to be asleep and get away with it.

But, there's no way around it.

Although that was just Asano-kun's test, I didn't know, and he was about to touch that place, if I didn't stop him, it would be a bit too...

So in the end, why was I pretending to be asleep all this time?

I should have just said it directly when I realized I had entered the wrong room...

Yes, after climbing onto Asano Makoto's bed, Konno Yuuka realized that she had entered the wrong room, after all, the bed she had been sleeping on before didn't have anyone else.

As Asano Makoto had expected, because she was not familiar enough with the apartment, and her head was a little dizzy from just waking up, she ran into the wrong room when she got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

However, when she realized that there was someone else in the bed, she realized this, and her brain instantly woke up.

She subconsciously wanted to get up and leave quietly, so that before Asano Makoto found out, the fact that she had entered the wrong room could be treated as if it had never happened.

However, before she could take any action, or even fully understand the situation, she was suddenly hugged by Asano Makoto.

Now, she couldn't sneak away without waking Asano Makoto.

And then, just as she was thinking about how to quietly return to her room, something even more frustrating happened.

Asano Makoto actually kissed her directly!

In an instant, Konno Yuuka's brain completely crashed.

She couldn't understand what had just happened, and couldn't figure out why Asano Makoto would suddenly kiss her forehead.

Could it be that he has feelings for me?

Just a subconscious kiss in a half-dream, completely messed up Konno Yuuka's brain to the point where she couldn't think.

She forgot to question the reason, forgot to get up and leave, just stood there dumbfounded, letting Asano Makoto hold her in his arms.

What happened after that was very simple and clear.

While Konno Yuuka was unable to react due to shock, Asano Makoto was also flustered to the point that he dared not make a sound for a long time because he realized he had hugged the wrong person.

The silence in the bedroom was maintained for about a minute, before being broken by Asano Makoto's questioning voice.

Because of his questioning, Konno Yuuka also regained her reason.

But perhaps she was ashamed of running into the wrong room, or perhaps she didn't dare to face the fact that Asano Makoto had kissed her, she didn't dare to respond, but instead subconsciously closed her eyes and began to pretend to be asleep.

There are many possibilities for her to choose to pretend to be asleep, as for the real reason...

Who knows? After all, perhaps not even she herself knows.

In short, all of this was just her subconscious behavior.

After that, seeing Asano Makoto couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after confirming that she was asleep, and also hearing his "subconscious" "muttering to himself", Konno Yuuka also understood why he would kiss her.

After learning that the things Asano Makoto did were not intentional, but merely actions taken in a state of being uncontrolled by reason, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, she inexplicably felt a little lonely in her heart.

She didn't know why she had feelings of loss, and before she could think about it, Asano Makoto got out of bed.

Before getting out of bed, he even very "thoughtfully" found an excuse for her mistake.

And hearing those words, realizing that he was leaving the bedroom to sleep in the living room, and even taking the initiative to find an excuse for her, just because he didn't want her to feel embarrassed, Konno Yuuka couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart.

But just then, the situation suddenly became tense again.

Asano Makoto, who had already opened the door and was about to leave the bedroom, suddenly returned, and it seemed that he was very sure that she was pretending to be asleep, and even threatened to "do bad things" to her if she continued to pretend to be asleep.

To be honest, at first Konno Yuuka thought that the "doing bad things" that Asano Makoto said was just a joke, or just testing if she was really asleep.

She didn't think that Asano Makoto would really do anything "bad" to her.

Therefore, even when Asano Makoto put his hand on her leg, she just subconsciously tensed her body and continued to pretend to be asleep, without making any resistance.

She thought that this matter would pass quickly, and Asano Makoto would soon give up further testing and leave the room.

At that time, she could also feel at ease to think about how to face Asano Makoto tomorrow.

After all, this time it was indeed her fault for running into the wrong room first, so when Asano-kun said the lie he had specially fabricated for her tomorrow, "You were too drunk last night and insisted on going to my room to sleep", she would fully accept it and regard it as the truth.

Although doing so may cause her to be laughed at by Asano-kun for a long time because of this incident, but relatively speaking, at that time, the matter of her getting into the wrong bed and being hugged and kissed by Asano-kun can be treated as if it never happened.

This was Konno Yuuka's true thought, and also the reason why she chose to continue to pretend to be asleep.

But as time gradually passed, she suddenly realized that the situation began to become wrong.

Asano Makoto's hand actually began to move slowly upwards, and it didn't seem like he was joking at all, but rather like he was serious.

Could it be that he is really going to do bad things!?

The moment this question appeared in her heart, Konno Yuuka panicked.

She didn't know if she had misunderstood, and didn't know if Asano Makoto was still testing, but she didn't want to gamble on this kind of thing.

Although her relationship with Asano Makoto has become very good now, she can accept Asano Makoto touching some parts of her body, such as her legs, waist, or shoulders.

But she can't accept very sensitive positions like her breasts and buttocks.

She felt that these places should never be touched until the relationship reaches a new level.

Even her past boyfriend, Shida Yoichi, was not allowed to touch these places, let alone Asano Makoto, who can only be considered a "good friend" at present.

So when Asano Makoto's hand really moved to the root of her thigh, and a little bit further up could touch her buttocks, she couldn't bear it any longer and got up from the bed to prepare to stop Asano Makoto's further actions.

It was because of this that things completely became serious.

From Asano Makoto's words, it can be seen that he was really just testing, but using a fishing method.

And Konno Yuuka was the fish that was caught.

"Asa—!"

"I didn't expect you were really asleep, it seems I was overthinking—"

These were the last words of the two, after Konno Yuuka sat up from the bed, the two began to stare at each other in silence, and the surrounding atmosphere gradually became awkward.

"Konno-san, you... know everything?"

The one who broke the silence first was still Asano Makoto.

Although his question sounded a bit abrupt, Konno Yuuka knew very well what he wanted to ask.

Faced with his question, Konno Yuuka's brain began to spin rapidly.

This was the first time that she, who was always unaccustomed to the scheming in interpersonal relationships, had put so much effort into handling her relationship with someone.

After thinking hard, she quickly figured out one thing, that is, she must not admit that she was pretending to be asleep just now, otherwise there is no way to explain why she did this.

So her final choice was: to pretend to be stupid.

"Know... what? By the way, Asano-kun, why are you here?"

She said with a puzzled face, and even asked a question first, as if she really didn't know anything.

Hearing this, Asano Makoto was slightly stunned, and then immediately realized that Konno Yuuka was pretending to be stupid.

He felt amused in his heart, but on the surface he still maintained that puzzled look and asked again: "I just heard..."

He didn't finish, and then hurriedly changed the subject as if he suddenly woke up: "Uh, no, it's nothing, I mean... do you know where you are now?"

"Where am I now? Isn't it in... huh? Where am I?"

Like waking up from a big dream, Konno Yuuka began to turn her head non-stop to look around, as if she was really confirming where she was.

She's pretending quite well.
