Chapter 144: Thank You for the Kiss, Brother-in-Law!
An ambiguous atmosphere filled the room.
Anya had already sneaked out of her room and was peeking around the corner.
Yuri was sweating profusely, knowing he'd said the wrong thing, but the die was cast—he could only grit his teeth and watch what would happen.
Maybe his sister was just acting on impulse.
At this moment, Yor had stood up.
The blush on her face made it hard to tell whether it was from shyness or the rising effects of alcohol.
Seemingly feeling she wasn't quite drunk enough yet, she hesitated, then grabbed the last bit of wine on the table and chugged it down.
"Hey! Is this really okay?" Natsukawa was sweating, feeling that Yor's actions weren't quite right. Was she going to take advantage of him?
She was even actively getting herself more drunk—wasn't that just offering herself up on a silver platter?
After all, this was Yor in a drunken state. What if she felt he'd taken advantage of her when she sobered up?
"Maybe we should just forget about it and prove it another time."
Saying this, Natsukawa took a step back, only to fall onto the sofa.
"Hmph! You were all lying after all!"
Yuri exclaimed, sudden realization dawning on him. He grinned broadly. "I knew my sister was lying! How could she possibly have someone she likes, especially so suddenly?! It's all fake!"
These words acted as a catalyst. Yor rushed over and pressed Natsukawa, who was about to get up, back onto the sofa.
"Natsukawa-san!"
"Yor, you..."
The two were locked in an intense gaze, their eyes only for each other. Natsukawa's hand had somehow already found its way to Yor's waist, and with a gentle pull, the distance between them instantly closed.
Yuri swallowed hard, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He raised and lowered his arm helplessly, his wide eyes filled with despair as he muttered softly,
"It can't be... my sister can't possibly... she must be lying to me..."
Bond, sitting nearby with an amused expression, panted happily, his tail wagging as if cheering them on.
Anya held up her camera, eyes sparkling with excitement. She felt that Aunt Yor becoming a mama was not far off.
So let's record this beautiful moment!
"No, sis!"
Yuri couldn't bear to watch their faces getting closer and closer, and shouted loudly.
He couldn't accept it—he absolutely couldn't accept it! His sister couldn't kiss someone else right in front of him!!!
However, Yor and Natsukawa were already completely absorbed in the moment, unmoved by his words, ignoring Yuri entirely.
Whoosh—
A chopstick embedded itself in the wall right next to Yuri, making him swallow all his grievances.
"Since you don't believe me, I'll show you just how close we are!
I'm doing this to put your mind at ease, Yuri. You should find a girlfriend soon too."
Yor's eyes began to glaze over, her lips parted slightly, and her hands rested on Natsukawa's shoulders as their lips drew closer.
Seeing that the two were about to (づ￣3￣)づ╭～
Yuri forcibly suppressed his fear of his sister and shouted, stepping forward.
He spread his arms wide, ready to block their faces.
"Stop this!"
Yor was genuinely angry now, her dark red pupils burning with fury. "Yuri! You were the one who demanded we kiss, and now you're the one saying we shouldn't! What do you want from me?!"
With that, Yor's anger surged, and she swung her arm.
Instantly, a whistling wind rushed past Natsukawa's ears.
With a loud thud, Yuri, who had charged forward, spiraled upward at incredible speed, flying backward like a failed Olympic diver.
While Olympic divers perform graceful vertical descents, Yuri traced a parabolic arc through the air with a loud screech—
Right toward the television. Two chairs collapsed instantly, and the TV itself wasn't spared either.
Anya's protective measures were completely ineffective.
CRASH!
An arc of electricity flashed and crackled, then black smoke billowed out, officially destroying the television.
Yuri was embedded in the TV screen, his hair standing on end and smoking.
Even so, his resolute eyes remained fixed on the two figures.
However, the image reflected in his eyes the next instant completely shattered his resolve, leaving his body utterly powerless.
Tears of regret streamed down Yuri's face. It's all over!
They kissed!
They were actually together!
This blow was far greater for Yuri than the Public Security Bureau losing major intelligence on the Black Organization.
"I was so stupid... I shouldn't have tested my sister..." Yuri muttered to himself, slapping himself hard across the face, tears of regret streaming down.
A minute later, the two who had been kissing finally separated.
Yor leaned back against the sofa, breathing heavily.
Aside from the initial move, she'd been completely dominated by Natsukawa afterward.
Fortunately, her lung capacity was good—otherwise she would have suffocated.
"Okay, I believe you now! So can you pull me out of the TV, sis?" Yuri wiggled his body. He was wedged in too deep and couldn't get out without leverage.
His eyes were filled with tears as he gritted his teeth, looking at Natsukawa as if he were his mortal enemy.
"How can you look at your brother-in-law like that?"
The drunken Yor spoke without restraint, and when she noticed Yuri's hostile look, she was very displeased.
She'd already proven their relationship—how could her brother still act like this? So insensitive!
"I understand, sis! B-brother-in-law!"
Natsukawa licked his lips, feeling somewhat unsatisfied, but it was already excellent for a first time. He had to thank his brother-in-law—he was such a good person!
"Yuri, are you alright?"
Natsukawa smiled and came to Yuri's side, helping to pull him out. Without Yuri's provocation, he didn't know when he would have been able to make this breakthrough.
As the saying goes, with intimate moments it's either zero times or countless times.
So... hehehehe.
Yuri patted his clothes, wiped the blood from his mouth and forehead, and felt extremely annoyed.
"Knowing that my sister has found someone good, I'm relieved. But Natsukawa-san, listen carefully—if you dare do anything to betray my sister, I won't let you off!"
"I understand completely. But..." Natsukawa asked with genuine concern, "Why don't you go to the hospital to get checked out?"
"I'm fine!"
Yuri twisted his neck and said with a hint of warning, "My sister is just like this. I'm used to it, and I hope you can get used to it soon too!"
"Hehe! Yuri, what are you whispering about?" A dark shadow loomed behind Yor, her scarlet eyes glowing like a demon's gaze.
Don't you know what you should and shouldn't say?
"N-nothing! I'm heading home now! I have to go on a business trip with my superior tomorrow, so I won't stay any longer!"
Yuri was extremely flustered and scrambled toward the door. One more hit and he'd probably end up hospitalized.
That wouldn't do—he still had work tomorrow.
The Black Organization was active in Japan, and Bourbon had mentioned they'd be making some big moves soon. He wondered what they were planning.
