"Although I knew you couldn't sleep last night, you still remembered that you had not finished your duties as an executive committee member, and then you took the initiative to get up and work on the design drawings on the table. You were so tired that you fell asleep and caught a cold."

"It's really unexpected that this kind of thing happened to Horikita Suzune."

"..."

I don't know whether it was because she was really weak or because she couldn't reply. Horikita Suzune, who usually liked to talk back to Kitagawa Ryo, finally calmed down. Some of her dull black hair was scattered on the edge of the pillow. She closed her eyes and didn't know what was going on. What to think.

If it were the former Horikita Suzune, she would have persisted in class despite her illness without hesitation. After all, she was known to never be late, never leave early, and never be absent.

But Kitagawa Ryo asked her teacher for leave.

He originally thought that Horikita Suzune would insist a little longer, but to his surprise, the other party just lay back on the bed.

I always feel more and more like a child.

But it's not that I can't understand it. After all, the feeling of being denied something that I have insisted on for several years is no different from the sky falling.

And it also has something to do with the fact that Horikita Suzune has been tormented by her crazily these past few weeks.

It just happened to explode.

"So, how much work is left now?"

After handing the thermometer to Horikita Suzune and asking her to measure it herself, Kitagawa Ryo asked casually.

He still appreciates this aspect of Horikita Suzune. Just like in the last simulation, the other party was the leader of Class D and failed repeatedly. Once she stood in the corresponding position, regardless of whether she could do it well or not, Horikita Suzune's At least there is no problem with the attitude.

"And... half of it is not finished, there are only random suggestions there."

The sore throat caused by the fever made Horikita Suzune's voice less crisp than before, and instead felt a bit muffled.

Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and finally she opened her eyes, her purple pupils blank.

"You'd better have a good rest."

Kitagawa Ryo glanced at Horikita Suzune, and he pulled up the quilt:

"drink water?"

"This is already my seventh cup, I don't want to drink it."

As if she didn't want to lie down like this anymore, Horikita Suzune struggled a little, then simply sat up and half leaned against the head of the bed.

"What? You're not used to it now that you've been free?"

"If you want to get better quickly, take the medicine quickly."

After hearing Kitagawa Ryo's words, Horikita Suzune returned to bed with lightning speed and wrapped herself into a rice dumpling.

"Does it taste bad?"

After smelling the medicine in the bowl, Kitagawa Ryo was also a little puzzled. After all, Hotaru had always been well-behaved when she was taking medicine since she was a child, and she had never disliked it.

"Come out and drink medicine. Good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease."

like a statue.

"..."

Simply putting the medicine back, Kitagawa Ryo shook his head and walked to Horikita Suzune's desk, where the laptop screen was still on, with a half-finished pattern design on it.

Watching Kitagawa Ryo looking at the results of her random work with interest from the gap in the quilt, Horikita Suzune felt a rare sense of shame, and she opened the quilt again:

"I think I should take medicine."

Then he also lay back and looked at Kitagawa Ryo longingly.

"Just put it on your bedside table."

"Zingyin can't let me coax you, you're not really a child."

Kitagawa Ryo sat on a chair nearby and looked at the embarrassed Horikita Suzune, and said in a pretentious manner:

"Okay, be good, drink it, um, it's great."

"How can I drink it?"

"...Ryo better shut up."

Horikita Suzune glared at Kitagawa Ryo, but this action did not look impressive due to her own weakness.

However, she drank the potion in the bowl in one go. In fact, the medicine itself was not bitter, it just required a little courage. Kitagawa Ryo had already checked it before giving it to Horikita Suzune.

Especially the production date of the medicine. After all, he himself had trouble with this.

After taking out the dry bowl and washing it, Kitagawa Ryo picked up another white pill that was put aside. This was the real challenge.

Pills with a pungent smell are, to some extent, scarier than granules and capsules.

Even Hotaru is hard to coax.

A certain girl who huddled under the covers is the best proof.

I really don't know how she lived alone before.

After thinking for a moment, he thought of how he had fed Yingying such pills in his previous life. Kitagawa Ryo also found a few oranges in the kitchen that were originally used to squeeze juice, and after a little manipulation, he stuffed the pills into a piece of pulp. .

Although Hotaru complained about whether doing this would lose the medicinal properties, Kitagawa Ryo himself really didn't want to see Hotaru forcing her throat to swallow a lot of pills every time, so she wanted the process to be as easy as possible. .

This method was invented at that time.

"Lingyin, eat the fruit first, and take the medicine later."

In this way, Horikita Suzune was lured out.

"Well..."

"Don't chew it. Swallow it in one gulp."

Horikita Suzune was startled by Kitagawa Ryo's suddenly serious tone, and swallowed the orange segment in her mouth like a gulp.

"Okay, perfect. Suzune, please continue to rest. I'm taking a day off."

Kitagawa Ryo clapped his hands and showed a refreshing smile to Horikita Suzune.

After taking the medicine, Horikita Suzune seemed to feel sleepy. She yawned and lay back down again.

Kitagawa Ryo helped her adjust the pillow and press the quilt.

This was the first time for Horikita Suzune to feel such a feeling of being taken care of.

Not annoying.

Horikita Suzune woke up once, feeling thirsty.

"Want some water?"

Kitagawa Ryo was sitting next to her.

"Ah... um."

The dazed Horikita Suzune took a long time to react. She subconsciously took the water glass handed over by Kitagawa Ryo, drank the entire glass in one go, and then continued to sleep deeply.

Watching Horikita Suzune close her eyes, Kitagawa Ryo went to the kitchen again to get a pot of boiling water. He first poured a cup and let it cool down, then took out an empty water cup and poured the hot water back and forth. The ground poured back and forth between the two cups.

This is also a method I discovered when taking care of Yingying before. It can make the hot water cool down as quickly as possible.

It was so quiet that you could even hear the sound of flying dust dancing in the air.

Kitagawa Ryo placed the hot water at the right temperature on the bedside table so that Horikita Suzune could see it as soon as she woke up.

Even if it's just a game of pretending to be a family.

ps: Sorry, there was an unexpected incident today and the update was late.

ps2: Thank you for reading and subscribing. The method of taking medicine in this article is indeed what I used to coax my sister when I was a child. I have personally verified that it is effective_(:з」∠)_

Main plot: Kitagawa Ryo's strength supremacy classroom: Extra: Taming and being tamed

[Reminder before reading: This chapter is a supplement related to the first simulation of Horikita Suzune by Megumi Karuizawa. It is used to explain the behavioral motivations and methods of Ryo Kitagawa in this simulation of Horikita Suzune. Thank you. ]

Kitagawa Ryo originally didn't want to turn on the lights in the living room. He originally planned to use the light of the flashlight that came with his phone to find his shoes and return to his room as silently as possible.

"You're back."

But a word came out of nowhere in the darkness, and at the same time there was the sound of even breathing, and she was getting closer.

Kitagawa Ryo instinctively wanted to dodge, but the opponent's speed was faster than he imagined. His warm breath hit his neck, and his two hands had already wrapped around his waist.

"Ryo was away for three days and twelve hours this time."

Kitagawa Ryo heard Horikita Suzune's whisper. She stood up on tiptoes and gently touched his chin with the tip of her nose. The wonderful touch reminded Kitagawa Ryo of a cat he had raised many years ago.

In fact, it was not until Horikita Suzune agreed to the past engagement in front of his parents that Kitagawa Ryo finally became aware of her obsession and obsession with him. It was clear that at that time, he just wanted to take advantage of her. It's best to stay in Tokyo for a while.

After all, at that time, Kitagawa Ryo only thought that Horikita Suzune was a child with a twisted yearning and admiration for her brother. At that time, Kitagawa Ryo, who only had eyes for Karuizawa Megumi, did not even think of the consequences now.

γγ α π ρα δ' ηη, if you make an oath without permission, disaster is imminent.

This oracle from the Temple of Delphi came to mind inexplicably.

"Is it Shiina?"

Horikita Suzune put the tip of her nose to Kitagawa Ryo's chin, sniffed and said:

"It smells like her."

But there wasn't much anger in her tone, it was more like a sigh.

"Now it tastes like me."

Horikita Suzune's lips pressed forward, her almost brutal movements carrying an aggressive, untamed wildness.

tame.

Kitagawa Ryo remembered that when he first met Horikita Suzune, he regarded each other as a fox who had not yet met the little prince. In fact, at that time, you were simply entrusted by Horikita Manabu, and you were also able to make decisions and felt that you were not compatible with such a person. There is nothing wrong with lonely girls becoming friends.

I originally thought that the other party would always be as docile as a tamed fox.

Kitagawa Ryo opened his eyes slightly, and stared at Horikita Suzune's purple-red pupils, which were very close at hand. The uneasiness and anxiety contained in these pupils even made Kitagawa Ryo himself feel a little uneasy.

"I didn't go to find her. I was just on a business trip for a few days. You are thinking nonsense again."

Kitagawa Ryo touched Horikita Suzune's face with her hands, from the fluttering eyelashes to the corners of her mouth:

"I'm back."

He hoped that this promise could temporarily appease Horikita Suzune.

But it doesn't seem to be working today.

Horikita Suzune seemed to have just taken a shower, with some water drops still hanging on her hair.

When the two hugged, physical contact was inevitable, but Kitagawa Ryo noticed that Horikita Suzune was taking advantage of her step by step.

These further contacts were small and light, careful and fearful, as if countless small hands were stretched out from Horikita Suzune's body in an instant. She was timidly testing them. As long as Kitagawa Ryo had the slightest intention to accept, It will take root immediately.

Kitagawa Ryo grabbed Horikita Suzune's hand, and it was like a copper wall with no cracks exposed:

"no."

"That's not what I wanted."

Kitagawa Ryo turned on the lights in the living room, and the bright space made all the charm disappear instantly.

The wedding photo of the two of them hung in the center of the living room wall, and Kitagawa Ryo ignored it.

He still couldn't accept Horikita Suzune's betrayal. The two had obviously agreed to cancel their engagement together, but in the end they were defeated.

Kitagawa Ryo and Horikita Suzune became a legal couple.

Entering his room, Kitagawa Ryo lay down directly. After feeling his disordered breathing gradually stabilize, he heard a knock on the door.

Obviously the door is not closed at all.

Kitagawa Liang stood up and looked at the ajar door. After a few knocks on the door, there was no movement from the other party, and there was a brief blank. The two people inside and outside the door seemed to be waiting for the other party's move.

The first one to admit defeat was Kitagawa Ryo. He simply put on his slippers and opened the door again:

"Is there anything?"

"If there's nothing else, I'm going to sleep."

Horikita Suzune stood there and blinked quite obediently. Although he knew that this was all a disguise, Kitagawa Ryo himself could not help himself. He did not have romantic feelings for Horikita Suzune, but he did. Feelings between friends.

"Gotta take a shower."
