Madam, believe me, how can I be a minotaur?

Section 182

The atmosphere between the two became increasingly awkward.

Looking at her gaze, which seemed to want to say something but didn't know how to start, Asano Makoto almost lost his composure and broke down from his expressionless state.

But he really had unspeakable suffering.

In the final analysis, it wasn't his intention to get hard; he initially just wanted to touch her legs, massage Konno Yuka to relieve her stress, and see if he could gain some favorability points to complete the task, without intending to do anything else out of line.

If Konno Yuka hadn't suddenly cried out in such a sultry voice and then displayed such an irresistible posture, would he have ended up like this?

Honestly, he didn't even know how he managed to resist doing anything just now.

Moreover, he didn't expect little Makoto's reaction to be so strong; although he used to get hard quickly, this time it was like a rocket, instantly standing up and completely uncontrollable.

As for little Makoto being suppressed for two or three days, it wasn't his fault either; wasn't that Lilith's problem?

Thinking of this, Asano Makoto suddenly felt a little aggrieved.

So he simply stopped pretending, put on a bitter face, and said sadly, "I really just wanted to give you a massage to relax you, without intending to do anything bad, but I'm just a normal young man, not a saint, and I don't have a girlfriend, and you made such a... sultry sound just now, I couldn't help it."

It must be said that Asano Makoto is a very talented scumbag; just listen to this responsibility-shifting and PUA-like rhetoric that is very typical of scumbags.

But to be honest, he didn't intentionally want to PUA Konno Yuka.

Because what he said was the truth.

Although he always seemed calm on the surface, no one knew how much pressure little Makoto's sudden weakness had brought him; rather, no one could remain calm when their vital parts suffered a fatal injury and they became discouraged.

Although Lilith said it wasn't a big problem and he could recover in a few days, he wasn't sure how accurate Lilith's unreliable 'quack doctor' 'diagnosis' was, and he didn't know if little Makoto had suffered any permanent damage.

He simply didn't want Lilith to feel pressured, so he chose to believe Lilith's words, thinking that if it didn't work, he would find a way through the system, after all, the 'Yellow-Haired NTR' system wouldn't let him, a yellow-hair, lose his NTR ability.

So he had been hiding all the pressure in his heart.

He hid it very well, but just now, suddenly remembering these things, plus little Makoto's sudden revival, made him emotionally agitated to the point of slightly uncontrollably leaking some of this pressure.

It was really just a little bit; he still maintained his rationality, controlled his words, and tried to control the direction of things.

Yes, even at this time, he was trying to eliminate the impact of the sudden incident just now and repair the cracks that hadn't actually appeared between himself and Konno Yuka.

So he wasn't really blaming Konno Yuka, nor was he suppressing her mind and PUAing her.

He just wanted to solve the problem at hand and take this opportunity to vent a little.

And what surprised him a little was that Konno Yuka really fell for it.

All along, she had been a very independent "new-age independent woman"; she was tenacious, hardworking, and rarely influenced by external things.

However, because she had just been hurt by a scumbag, her heart entered a very sensitive and unstable state.

Asano Makoto took advantage of the situation and burrowed into her heart, becoming her sun in that blizzard, helping her stabilize her almost collapsing spirit and giving her enough warmth to stand up again.

The price was that it made her dependent.

This independent woman was no longer independent.

On the surface, Konno Yuka still seemed strong; even after leaving Shida Yoichi for a while, she seemed to be doing even better than before.

But in the depths of her heart, there was an invisible crack, a crack that was torn open by her trusted boyfriend and could only be temporarily "glued" together when she was by Asano Makoto's side, who had saved her.

So she couldn't, at least temporarily couldn't leave Asano Makoto's side for a long time; even if she left, she had to maintain contact with Asano Makoto to barely maintain her mental state.

This was the main reason why she rushed back as soon as she had a vacation, wanting to see Asano Makoto.

Perhaps she herself didn't know these things, but one thing she did know: she didn't want to lose Asano Makoto, this good friend; she wanted to continue to maintain a good relationship with Asano Makoto, preferably staying together all the time.

She didn't want to have conflicts with Asano Makoto, didn't want a rift to appear in her relationship with Asano Makoto, and didn't want the two of them to go their separate ways in the end.

So, after hearing Asano Makoto's complaint, which was obviously shifting responsibility, Konno Yuka suddenly woke up.

She no longer couldn't think because of shyness—of course, she still felt ashamed, for the stupid things she had done, for the towering peak beneath Asano Makoto's crotch, but this sense of shame didn't outweigh those other complex emotions.

Therefore, she understood Asano Makoto's physiological reaction at this moment and felt a little guilty about it.

And, only a little bit, so little that even she didn't notice it, of happiness.

It's hard to say whether she's "cheap" or what, but after being blamed by Asano Makoto, she actually felt happy, which was simply unbelievable.

But that was the fact.

After hearing Asano Makoto say, "I'm just a normal young man, and I don't have a girlfriend," she breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy and at ease.

She didn't notice this, but it didn't matter; this feeling had already become a seed planted in her heart, and sooner or later it would take root, sprout, and bear juicy fruit.

Finally, it would be picked by Asano Makoto, the "villain" who planted the seed.

And these things were reflected on Asano Makoto's side as the [Konno Yuka Favorability +3] notification sound that suddenly rang in her mind.

At this point, Konno Yuka's favorability reached 42 points.

As for her stability value... this thing would slowly increase as long as she chatted with Asano Makoto, let alone letting her stay by Asano Makoto's side.

Just from the time she arrived until now, her stability value had already risen to 74.

The moment he heard the notification sound, Asano Makoto instantly stopped feeling aggrieved.

His efforts and acting had paid off.

But he still didn't stop talking, but continued to say, "In the end, you don't even know how attractive you are to me; you're already beautiful, and you know how to dress up, your clothes are good, and your personality is so good that it goes without saying, you can even become good friends with someone like me who has almost no friends."

"A woman as charming as you suddenly made such a sultry sound in front of me and showed such a sultry appearance, how could I control it! Do you even know how sultry you look with your face red and your head buried in your knees?"

"Let's put it this way, no normal man can remain calm in front of your sultry appearance; others can't, and I can't even more; don't think too highly of me, because I'm really just a normal, almost 20-year-old man who has never been in love!"

Chapter 246 I Want

Asano Makoto now looked like he had road rage, constantly venting his anger towards Konno Yuka.

Of course, he was pretending, because he had to overwhelm Konno Yuka in terms of momentum to completely solve the problem.

"The only two types of people who don't have a physiological reaction in front of your sultry appearance are gay men and those with some physiological illness... no, maybe even the latter can cure their illness when they see you! You're just that charming, you're just that sexy, understand!?"

Is this shifting responsibility? Is this PUA?

Of course not.

He didn't lie, and he didn't belittle her, so how could this be PUA?

This is obviously praise, although it's very blunt and vulgar, but it's praise, and it's a unique praise that can make Konno Yuka, a top model who lives in praise almost every day, blush.

After all, this was the first time someone had praised her "sexy" in front of her face.

Excluding moral constraints, a man praising a woman as "sexy" might be the highest level of praise, because this sentence can well explain that this man has been attracted to this woman, even if only on a physical level.

In fact, before this time, Asano Makoto's superficial praises could only get Konno Yuka's thanks, but couldn't make her blush.

Although she seemed happier when Asano Makoto praised her than when others praised her, who knew if that was her professional quality as a model creating a fake smile?

It could be said that she had long been accustomed to that kind of ordinary praise.

Even before she discovered that Shida Yoichi was a scumbag, her boyfriend's praise couldn't make her blush.

Of course, a big part of the reason was that she knew that Shida Yoichi's praise was likely to trick her into bed, but this little trick made her, who adhered to the bottom line, even more indifferent to these praises.

Let's put it this way, if she had to say who she hated the most for praising her, it would definitely be Shida Yoichi and those agency leaders who wanted to sleep with her in the past.

Because their high-sounding praise was mixed with dirty purposes and desires.

She only felt disgusted by this.

If it weren't because Shida Yoichi was her boyfriend, plus she didn't discover the nature of this scumbag at the beginning, which made her think that the other party was trying hard to restrain his desires for herself and felt a little embarrassed about her insistence on keeping her purity until marriage, she would have scolded Shida Yoichi a lot.

But this time, Asano Makoto's sudden outburst didn't have any purpose; what he said really just seemed like he was venting his grievances.

At least Konno Yuka didn't see that he had any bad intentions.

Because his blunt praise that didn't seem like praise made Konno Yuka feel that he didn't have any strange intentions at all; after all, who would keep saying "you're so sexy" to the person they want to sleep with?

Wouldn't that be too blunt and too impolite?

Who would want to sleep with someone who has "sexy" on their lips all day long?

So this time, Konno Yuka really blushed because of Asano Makoto's praise, and quickly waved her hand and kept saying, "Don't, don't say it! Asano-kun, don't say it! I beg you, really don't say it!"

However, seeing the situation gradually becoming as expected, and the [Konno Yuka Favorability +1] notification sound still ringing in his mind, how could Asano Makoto listen to her hypocritical advice?

"Don't let me say it? I insist on saying it! You guy, you're a sexy woman, and you're a stupid idiot who doesn't even know you're sexy!"

Saying that, Asano Makoto hummed and said in a slightly annoying tone, "In the end, do you even know why you suddenly made such a sexy sound just now?"

From just now until now, the word "sexy" has never stopped coming out of his mouth; if an ordinary person dared to say these things in front of a woman, that person would have been slapped a lot.

But Asano Makoto wasn't afraid; he knew very well that only he could say these words without causing any negative impact.

Because his relationship with Konno Yuka wasn't ordinary; now they were almost brothers, and it wasn't a big deal to say these things; maybe even more offensive things could be said.

Moreover, at this moment, he was standing on the moral high ground, making Konno Yuka realize her "mistake" and feel guilty towards him, so even if he kept saying that she was a sexy guy, it wouldn't make her angry.

As for whether that was the case, just look at Konno Yuka's favorability, which had increased by 5 points in such a short time, reaching 47 points.

Konno Yuka really wasn't angry, and after Asano Makoto asked the question in an annoying tone, she subconsciously asked back, "W-why?"

Although being called sexy again made her feel very shy, she really wanted to know the reason.

Why was it that just having her shoulders pinched could make her so comfortable that she couldn't help but cry out and be "praised" by Asano Makoto until now?

"Hmph!"

Asano Makoto snorted forcefully, then rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "I knew it when I pinched your shoulders just now, you idiot has been working too hard recently, your body muscles have been in a tense state, and you haven't been able to relax for a long time; it's strange that you didn't cry out after being pinched by a 'massage master' like me."

Although his words were still vulgar and blunt, he seemed less angry.

It was precisely because of his drastic change in attitude that Konno Yuka was stunned there for a moment, at a loss.

Seeing this, Asano Makoto once again said in a low voice, "What are you still doing standing there? Hurry up and lie down, I'll loosen your muscles properly."

Konno Yuka was even more stunned; she hadn't recovered from the topic just now.

But seeing Asano Makoto's increasingly unkind eyes, she still reacted, then subconsciously lowered her head and looked at the still towering peak, and asked, "Then you..."

Even Asano Makoto would feel a little ashamed to be mentioned about this all the time.

Therefore, he didn't give Yuuka Konno any chance to continue speaking, directly interrupting her, "Still asking, huh? I told you, just ignore it, pretend nothing happened, and don't forget who caused me to become like this."

Giving Yuuka Konno a small warning, Asano Makoto waited for a moment before continuing, "Alright, quickly lie back down, are you still wanting me to massage you? Once this opportunity is gone, it's gone for good, don't regret it."

Seeing that he looked like his patience was about to run out, Yuuka Konno decided not to continue speaking and courting death.
