Erina, wearing nothing but a nude apron, busied herself in the kitchen.
"Stop standing around and help me already!" Erina turned toward Sui, her face flushed with embarrassment.
Sui, still admiring her figure, replied seriously, "Erina, I believe you can handle this on your own. Consider it a test of your skills as a future housewife."
Erina's face reddened even more, so much so it seemed blood might rush out. She bit her lip and shot him a frustrated glare, but her hands were occupied with cooking, making it impossible to cover her face. The situation was undeniably awkward.
Her smooth, firm back and long legs caught Sui's attention, but what stood out even more were her round, snow-white buttocks, soft and tender like ripe peaches. They trembled subtly as she moved about, a sight that seemed almost irresistible.
Finally, after much effort, Erina finished cooking. Sui stepped in to help her serve the dishes on the table.
Still embarrassed from the earlier ordeal, Erina's face burned with frustration. She shot Sui an angry look—he had done nothing but stare while she worked!
One of the dishes was stir-fried bean sprouts, grown from seeds they had planted earlier. The growth cycle of bean sprouts is incredibly short—just one week—but when planted in soil enhanced with mineral earthworms, the time was reduced to mere minutes.
The almond cabbage had also grown well and would be ready for harvest soon, though the marshmallow pumpkin had a longer growth cycle and had just sprouted. Sui looked forward to harvesting his first batch of fantasy ingredients, eager to complete his achievement task.
The bean sprouts grown in mineral earthworm soil were exceptionally juicy and flavorful, far surpassing regular bean sprouts in taste.
"These bean sprouts are delicious," Erina commented, her voice full of praise. At the time, she hadn't yet changed out of her apron, her arms as pale as lotus roots exposed.
Sui, glancing at her well-rounded figure, nodded in agreement.
For some reason, the other dishes today seemed particularly sweet—perhaps it was because of the beautiful sight before him.
Noticing Sui's lingering gaze, Erina blushed, feeling even more self-conscious. She muttered softly, "Sui, stop staring and eat already."
His constant staring made her too embarrassed to enjoy her meal.
Sui, ignoring her plea, casually declared, "I've made up my mind. This will be your official housewife outfit from now on."
Erina's face immediately turned a deep shade of red. "W-what? No way! That's way too embarrassing!"
"Why not? Isshiki-senpai wears something similar all the time. You should learn from him," Sui teased.
"Learn from him? Are you insane?" Erina snapped, rolling her eyes in frustration. She had no intention of following Isshiki's odd habits.
Just then, in a fit of frustration, Erina picked up a meatball with her chopsticks. But as she lifted it toward her mouth, her chopsticks slipped, and the meatball tumbled down, landing squarely between her two plump, snow-white breasts.
"Ah!" she gasped, her face turning crimson. She awkwardly tried to retrieve the meatball with her chopsticks, but it was too slippery, and the more she tried, the further it sank.
Sui couldn't help but stare.
Noticing his gaze, Erina's embarrassment grew. "Hurry up and help me!" she demanded, her voice flustered.
Sighing, Sui reached over with his chopsticks and deftly retrieved the meatball, placing it back into her bowl.
Embarrassed, Erina quickly transferred the meatball into Sui's bowl. "It's too dirty," she mumbled.
Rolling his eyes, Sui said, "Erina, you really shouldn't waste food."
Without hesitation, he picked up the meatball and ate it in one bite. It was delicious, with a special aroma lingering in the taste.
"Mmm, it's good," he commented, nodding with satisfaction.
Erina's face burned even redder, remembering where the meatball had fallen. She silently regretted not throwing it away earlier.

The next evening, after finishing class, Sui returned to his apartment. His phone buzzed with a text message.
"Hey, Sui, can we come over tonight for extra lessons from Utaha-sensei? The others want to join too," read the message from Yotsuba.
Sui was surprised but pleased. He didn't expect the five sisters to be so eager to learn.
He agreed, confident that Utaha wouldn't mind. Soon after, the Nakano sisters arrived at Utaha's apartment in a luxury car.
Utaha, looking at the group in front of her, raised an eyebrow. "When did you all get so enthusiastic about studying? This is a bit suspicious," she muttered.
She couldn't help but glance at Sui. "Your ability to attract girls is truly something else, isn't it?" she said teasingly.
Not only had Sui drawn the interest of five girls at once, but the thought of them vying for his attention was almost overwhelming.
Sui gave her a helpless look. "What are you implying?" he asked, exasperated.
Utaha chuckled softly, nudging him with her black silk-covered foot before leading the group inside. The five sisters followed, settling onto the sofa.
"Sui, can we stay for dinner tonight?" Yotsuba asked, her bow bouncing like a rabbit's ears, making her look even more adorable.
Itsuki also looked at him expectantly, clearly eager for his cooking.
"Sure, but you'll have to study hard," Sui replied, amused by their expressions. Itsuki, despite always pretending not to care, never failed to devour the meals he prepared.
"No problem!" Yotsuba said enthusiastically, pulling out the notebook she had used during their last study session.
Sui took a quick glance—it was practically blank.
Meanwhile, Miku hesitated for a moment before asking, "Sui, I made the rice balls you taught me last time. Would you mind tasting them again?"
"Of course," Sui said with a smile.
Nino chimed in confidently, "I redid mine too, and I'm sure they'll pass this time."
Sui glanced at Nino's hands, noticing that she had even removed her usual nail polish—perhaps a sign of her growing dedication.
