……

Back in his bedroom, Hayakawa rummaged through the drawers in the closet.

This is cold medicine...this is fever medicine, this is for treating mental sensitivity and preventing insomnia, where is the stomach medicine?

Hayakawa searched for a long time before finding one that could help with stomach problems, but after looking at the effects for a while, she realized it was for indigestion and bloating.

"Uh... will this work?"

Hayakawa stared at the cardboard box for a long time, still unsure whether the medicine would work.

People say that every medicine has some degree of toxicity, and taking medicine indiscriminately can kill people. Therefore, when Hayakawa was unsure of the medicine's effectiveness, he dared not take it back to Furuhashi.

Chapter 565 Healing the Ancient Bridge

"If I feel unwell in my stomach because I ate something cold, is that considered indigestion?"

Hayakawa frowned and pondered for a long time before putting the medicine back.

There's no way I can give it to her.

If it were Hayakawa herself, she would have already stuffed all sorts of stomach medicine into her mouth, regardless of whether it would work or not. After all, the Emperor's strong body could withstand it. Or, given Hayakawa's personality, she might as well not take any medicine at all and just let her body handle whatever illness she had.

But this is Fumino Furuhashi, a very fragile high school girl at first glance, so Hayakawa dared not be careless.

Ultimately, whether a cold stomach ailment counts as a stomach problem is debatable...

After much deliberation, Hayakawa decided to use the internet, the greatest invention of modern mankind, to investigate.

What should a girl do if she gets a stomach upset from eating cold food?

Enter and search.

Soon, rows of search results appeared, showing doctors in white coats sitting in front of the camera, popularizing everyday medical knowledge for the public through social media, thus benefiting society.

Hayakawa looked at it carefully for a long time and found that there were indeed medications for this, but they were only needed when the abdominal pain was very severe and unbearable. Furuhashi Fumino was obviously not in that situation, and she did not have such medications at home.

As for other methods…

Stomach pain may be caused by cold food irritating the digestive system, causing spasms and contractions. Applying heat can effectively relieve the pain. Massaging the abdomen can also promote gastrointestinal motility, accelerate blood circulation, reduce intestinal spasms, and relieve pain. This is also the quickest and simplest way to deal with the pain.

Thankfully, I didn't give her any random medication.

Hayakawa glanced around again, somewhat relieved that he hadn't acted hastily. He then went to the bathroom to get a clean towel, filled a basin with hot water, soaked the towel in it, and carried the basin back to the old bridge.

Back in the living room, Hayakawa noticed that Furuhashi's complexion seemed even worse. They had only been pale, but now her face looked almost bluish. Clearly, her abdominal pain had not eased in the short time it had been, but had become more severe.

"Lie down on the sofa first, and I'll give you a massage."

Seeing this, Hayakawa no longer hesitated and immediately issued the order.

"Ehhhhh?"

Fumino Furuhashi, who had been silently enduring the pain, panicked upon hearing this: "Massage? Does that mean...?"

"Yes."

Hayakawa nodded expressionlessly, then reached out to Furuhashi Ryo: "Lift up your clothes."

"I knew it!"

Fumino Furuhashi immediately felt embarrassed, shaking her head repeatedly with a blush on her face: "Never mind, after drinking the hot water, my stomach suddenly doesn't hurt as much anymore. It'll pass if I just bear with it a little longer. No need to bother sending it to you again, haha, hot water really is a miracle cure."

After saying that, she lowered her head to avoid Hayakawa's gaze, her face showing embarrassment.

"Hey Guqiao, don't you know that it's better to hide your illness than to seek medical help?"

Hayakawa reluctantly lowered his hand and tried to dissuade Furuhashi: "If you don't let me massage you now, do you want to keep enduring this? What if your stomach keeps hurting? Or what if it gets worse? If the pain becomes unbearable at night, do you want me to rush you to the hospital in the middle of the night? You should know which of these two things is more troublesome."

"Hmm... Hayakawa-kun, you're not a doctor, so why are you so reluctant to seek medical help?"

Upon hearing this, Fumino Furuhashi paused for a moment, muttered a couple of words under her breath, and then said nothing more.

Hayakawa's words make sense. A massage should make me feel better. If I keep in this pain, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well at night. I'll be alone all night, suffering from insomnia. If I can't hold on any longer, I'm afraid Hayakawa will have to carry me to the hospital in the early morning. Staying at someone else's house is already troublesome enough. I absolutely will not accept this.

If it were any other guy... even a male doctor in the hospital, Fumino Furuhashi would probably find it hard to accept, but with Hayakawa... they've been together for so long, it seems like it's time to take things a step further.

Fumino Furuhashi felt a little uneasy, then something suddenly popped into her head.

Wait a minute, massage and stuff... I can totally massage myself, can't I even rub my stomach myself?

Fumino Furuhashi frowned slightly, but why hadn't Hayakawa thought of that...?

Could it be that he already thought of it but deliberately didn't say it?

Fumino Furuhashi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Hayakawa with some doubt in her eyes, but after hesitating for a long time, she finally nodded gently: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Hayakawa-kun."

In the end, I couldn't refuse Hayakawa's kind offer.

Fumino Furuhashi thought to herself, her face burning with an alarming heat.

"It's no trouble at all, leave it to me."

Hayakawa nodded calmly: "Lie down (one) and then lift up your clothes."

“Eh… Kimo sounds like something a pervert would say.”

Fumino Furuhashi trembled slightly, her words coming out somewhat without thinking due to her nervousness.

Upon hearing this, Hayakawa's face turned as black as coal: "Lie down right now!"

"I'm sorry, I understand..."

Fumino Furuhashi nodded meekly, then obediently lay down on the sofa, and slowly pulled up her pajamas, revealing a dazzling white dress that caught Hayakawa's eye.

Her slender belly was as white as snow, pure and beautiful like a snow-covered forest after a winter night. Her waist, so slender it could be encircled by one hand, was like a water snake; even without moving, it appeared exceptionally soft and supple, making one irresistibly want to reach out and touch it, to kiss it and leave one's mark.

With such a tiny waist and such a perfect figure, it's impossible to tell where she needs to lose weight. Why is she so obsessed with her weight?

Hayakawa was completely baffled.

"Can you stop staring at me like that?"

Fumino Furuhashi turned her head to the maximum angle, biting her lip tightly to control her tone. Her appearance of enduring humiliation reminded Hayakawa of the female knights and princesses in movies and TV dramas who were captured by the demon king and were about to suffer inhuman treatment.

A surge of lustful desire inexplicably welled up within Hayakawa's body. Normally, given his willpower, seeing this scene wouldn't have triggered such a reaction, but Furuhashi Fumino's aggrieved and suffering appearance stirred up his sense of guilt, and his desires were aroused as well.

"I won't look at it."

Hayakawa took a deep breath to compose herself, and then reached out her hand.

"Wait a moment."

Fumino Furuhashi suddenly spoke up in a tense tone.

Hayakawa's hand froze in mid-air: "What's wrong?"

"Did you...did you wash your hands properly?"

Fumio Kobashi stammered.

Chapter 566 Distant Memories

Did you wash your hands properly?

Fumino Furuhashi looked warily at Hayakawa's outstretched hand and said cautiously, "It'll get dirty if you don't wash your hands."

Hayakawa reluctantly withdrew his hand: "It won't get dirty, I shower every day."

Fumino Furuhashi insisted, "Let's go take a shower."

"Ok."

Hayakawa didn't insist, shrugged, and walked towards the bathroom.

"Um…"

Fumino Furuhashi responded softly, and then, seeing Hayakawa leave the living room, she immediately began to breathe heavily, her face flushed crimson under the light.

She felt her heart rate was definitely 160 just now, and she could even hear the vigorous beating in her chest.

Why is she so nervous? She and Hayakawa already have that kind of relationship, and she's even involved in Kazuya's love triangle. She shouldn't be flustered by something so small, but Fumino is so nervous that she can't control herself. She's even more nervous than when they're hugging or kissing.

Is it because someone saw my lower abdomen... that my sensitive spot is actually my stomach?

Furuhashi Fumino felt a mix of emotions. Hayakawa, who had carefully washed her hands, walked over while wiping them with a tissue. After reaching Furuhashi, she casually threw the tissue into the trash can and said to Furuhashi, "Is it okay now?"

"Um…"

That feeling of panic surged up again, and Fumino Furuhashi hurriedly avoided Hayakawa's gaze, whispering, "Come on."

"..."

Hayakawa paused for a moment, then suddenly revealed this pitiful, helpless posture, which made one feel a strong sense of guilt again.

As Hayakawa gently placed his hand on the smooth abdomen of the ancient bridge, he felt as if he were touching fine silk, so delicate that it was like a silk fabric carefully woven by a master craftsman, or like skimming across the surface of a pure lake without feeling any resistance.

The coefficient of friction here must be very small.

A strange thought flashed through Hayakawa's mind; he tends to have these kinds of wild thoughts when he gets nervous. Fumino Furuhashi, on the other hand, was even more nervous than Hayakawa. The moment she was touched, she couldn't help but let out a gasp.

"Alas"

Fumino Furuhashi uttered a sound and then tightly pursed her lips. With a wronged and aggrieved expression, she muttered, "What's wrong..."

"I just put it on."

Hayakawa was immediately speechless, wondering what he had done to deserve such treatment.

"Don't be nervous, think about something else."

However, seeing Fumino's tense and unrelaxed body, Hayakawa did not take advantage of the situation. Instead, while massaging her abdomen, he tried to divert Fumino's attention by saying, "I've touched your tummy before, haven't I? We've been through this before, so don't overthink it."

"before?"

Fumino Furuhashi was stunned for a moment, her attention successfully drawn away from the sensation in her abdomen. She looked puzzled, but after two seconds she suddenly realized what was happening, and the memory in her mind became clear.

In the second month of this semester, which was also the end of her first month under Hayakawa's tutelage, an unscrupulous teacher at the school suddenly issued a strict order that "both of them must pass the monthly exam." As a result, Hayakawa had no choice but to take the two of them home to study, and she began her first cohabitation journey with a boy.

At first, she was very nervous and had the idea of ​​running away at any time. Fumino Furuhashi even remembered that she brought self-defense tools because she was afraid and just in case, in order to guard against Hayakawa being a beast in human form. In the end, she didn't need them at all. When she got to Hayakawa's house, she studied, studied, studied every day, determined to cram her grades to a passing level before the monthly exam.

At first, Fumino Furuhashi maintained a high level of vigilance and tension, but this quickly crumbled under Hayakawa's intense training. In the end, even her girlish reserve vanished. She started getting up, going to school, eating, and studying every day according to the routine. She even became perfunctory about her skincare routine before bed and started to neglect her appearance.

Looking back on those days now, Fumino Furuhashi can't help but chuckle and sigh with emotion. Even though less than half a year has passed, she has forgotten some things until Hayakawa reminded her.

It's probably because I've experienced so many things, and there are so many things worth remembering, that my memories have become blurry.

Fumino Furuhashi's lips slowly curved into a faint smile.

I probably never imagined things would turn out this way back then.

She and her nominal mentor, Hayakawa... became the kind of relationship that would come to mind first after running away from home.

Although there were many unexpected twists and turns along the way, and the unexpected factor of Ri-chan appeared, my feelings at that time were so beautiful and innocent, something to long for...

Although it still is.

At that time, something small happened that bothered me: I was so focused on studying that I neglected my daily body management... After all, my brain needs sugar every day, and when my head hurt from doing problems, I couldn't help but stuff snacks into my mouth. When I came to my senses, I realized that my weight had reached a point where I felt my heart couldn't take it just by looking at it.

"No way! If this continues, it'll turn into a situation where people say, 'Hey, there's a walking pig here!'"

Fumino Furuhashi's unusual behavior in her hasty attempt to lose weight caught Hayakawa's attention. Hayakawa tried to stop her from dieting by saying, "You're not fat at all." A back-and-forth argument ensued, and then…

Perhaps because she couldn't accept her weight gain, or perhaps out of spite to prove herself, Fumino Furuhashi impulsively lifted her shirt and asked Hayakawa to check if her stomach had gotten bigger, which ultimately turned into a farce.

"Uh…"

When Fumino Furuhashi recalled this part, she froze, and her expression became somewhat awkward.

How could I have forgotten something so memorable... Just how hopeless is my brain? I might as well soak it in water until seaweed grows out of it!

"See, I told you I'd touched it before."

Hayakawa saw Fumino Kohashi remember and couldn't help but laugh.

"It seems so..."

Fumino Furuhashi's pretty face quickly flushed red, and she hurriedly said, "But this happened so long ago, let's forget about it!"

"That's impossible..."

Hayakawa said expressionlessly, "How can a person's memory just disappear like that?"

"OK."

Fumino Furuhashi smiled kindly at Hayakawa: "I have a mature method for causing amnesia. All you need to do is tap the back of the head with a hammer. However, there may be a small side effect, so please don't worry about it."

"I regret to decline."
