Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard-Chapter 768 - 460: The Daytime Hot Spring Inn

After leaving the breakfast shop, Hanamaru Hanabi kept holding onto Uesugi Sakura’s arm, even leaning her head on his shoulder, displaying a deliberately affectionate and cute demeanor in public.

"Sakura-kun... hehe... Sakura-kun..."

Uesugi Sakura could already feel some murderous glares targeting him on this tourist street.

"Hanabi... Hanabi..."

Hanamaru Hanabi clung to his arm with both hands, leaning on him coquettishly.

It would be fine at home, but this is on the street.

Never mind the influence, just some passersby alone.

Uesugi Sakura noticed several men glaring at him.

Although these guys are not worth paying attention to,

you never know if some radicals might come up from behind and ambush him when he’s alone, leading to a tragic end. What about the lovely wife at home then?

So...

"Hanabi-chan," Uesugi Sakura said to Hanamaru Hanabi beside him, with a very reluctant expression, "can we walk a bit more normally?"

"No way! Sakura-kun is Hanabi’s husband, of course, I have to hold on tight." Being persuaded like this, Hanamaru Hanabi held onto his arm even tighter and squinted her eyes with a blissful look on her face.

"Eh..."

Hearing her say that, Uesugi Sakura was, of course, happy. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Even though he sighed and considering the friendly eyes of the passersby at the moment, the situation wasn’t too pleasant.

Oh well, oh well...

Uesugi Sakura decided to ignore the gazes that wanted to devour him alive and just walked forward with his wife in arm.

"Where are we going next?"

Hanamaru Hanabi looked up, tilting her head to him, "Sakura-kun... Didn’t we agree to go to the hot spring inn?"

"Could it be... you’re backing out? Or rather..." Hanamaru Hanabi stood on tiptoe, pulling him to a stop as she whispered in his ear, "Does Sakura-kun still want to peek under Hanabi’s skirt?"

Skirt...

Uesugi Sakura couldn’t help but glance down.

Hanamaru Hanabi was wearing a refreshing short skirt today, underneath which were her voluptuous yet elegant white thighs.

Paired with the tiny black shoes she wore, her feet together, she looked unspeakably adorable.

"Sakura-kun, shall we go to the hot spring inn together?"

"Alright, let’s go to the hot spring inn."

The hot spring inn was called [Love Spa], backed by the mountains, with an exterior that clearly showed its age.

The fee was 6230 yen.

"No peeking."

In the steamy room, Hanamaru Hanabi stood by the wardrobe, pressing a finger against Uesugi Sakura’s forehead, "No, peeking, Hanabi is taking off her skirt."

Hmm?

Uesugi Sakura was full of confusion. Earlier outside... didn’t Hanabi-chan say he could look if he wanted to?

Why did she suddenly change her tune once they got to the hot spring inn?

"Can’t peek?"

"No, girls changing clothes is not for boys to see."

Uesugi Sakura felt something was off and tried to argue, "But I... am your husband, you said it this morning, didn’t you? It’s no big deal if the husband looks, is it?"

"Just because you’re the husband doesn’t mean it’s allowed! Also, that was only when wearing a camisole; Hanabi is changing into a bath towel, it’s completely different," Hanamaru Hanabi said with a cute smile, poking his face with her finger, "Quick, turn around, it’s a secret when a girl changes clothes."

"Alright."

With his face being poked by his wife, Uesugi Sakura had no choice but to turn around, facing the semi-open-air hot spring ahead.

Needless to say, the hot spring layout here was really nice.

The roof provided shade, surrounded by bamboo fences, backed by green stone mountains, complemented by some greenery, looking very natural and harmonious.

There was also a small pond surrounded by cobblestones, with steaming spring water flowing from above into the large pool below, accompanied by the sound of trickling water.

"Okay, Sakura-kun can turn back now."

Uesugi Sakura turned back slowly, expecting her to have changed into her bath towel, but was stunned at the moment he saw her body.

The bath towel seemed intentionally poised, sliding down along the girl’s body...

Exposed shoulders, slender waistline, the exquisite curve starting from her back...

A whole expanse of white...

Ahem, ahem.

Uesugi Sakura lowered his head, coughing into his fist.

"Oh, no!" Hanamaru Hanabi’s little face looked panicked as she bent down to grab the white bath towel at her feet, quickly raising it to cover her chest, laughing as she extended her finger to press it against his face again, "Sorry, Sakura-kun... I didn’t notice it was loose, can you turn around for a bit?"

"..."

What is this...

Uesugi Sakura felt she did it on purpose.

This is called, playing hard to get.

Does he really not see through her little tricks?

"Sakura-kun~" Hanamaru Hanabi’s extended finger poked his cheek again, "Quick."

"Okay, I’ll turn around."

After waiting for a short while.

"Okay, Sakura-kun, this time it’s fine."

Uesugi Sakura turned around again, realizing that Hanamaru Hanabi indeed had changed into a bath towel and her hair was tied up.

She had her hair tied into a bun on top of her head, secured with a hairpin.

Meanwhile, the wardrobe compartment beside her was already piled with her scarf, top, short skirt, white stockings, and other personal clothes.

All neatly folded.

Is this some kind of OCD?

Hanamaru Hanabi smiled and said, "Sakura-kun, hurry up and change, Hanabi will take a bath first. Is it fair for Hanabi to look at Sakura-kun?"

"No way."

Uesugi Sakura refused righteously, "Absolutely not."

As a return gift for being denied the chance to watch her change, Uesugi Sakura had to say the same.

"I see."

Hanamaru Hanabi’s voice sounded quite low but soon turned brisk again, with a jumping light on her cheeks, "Alright, Hanabi will wait for Sakura-kun at the hot spring then."

She hugged the bath basin, humming a little tune, and headed to the hot spring in front of the room.
