Chapter 199 Jealousy

Not long after, Hoshino Hitomi, with a sandwich in her mouth, rushed all the way to Hagiwara Kenji's house.

However, just as she ran to the corner, she ran head-on into an extremely solid chest.

She was hit so hard that she saw stars and staggered back two steps. She almost fell to the ground, but fortunately the other person came to her rescue in time.

Hoshino Hitomi was just about to say thank you, but when she looked up, she saw the familiar handsome face of Matsuda Jinpei.

The sandwich in her mouth was immediately stuck in her throat. She quickly pounded her chest and forced herself to swallow it.

Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but chuckle, then quickly took out a bottle of water from his pocket and handed it to the other party to drink. Seeing that the other party's condition had improved a lot, he casually started to tease:

"Hey, Miss Hoshino, don't you know you can't eat while running? Also, are you treating the streets here as a running track? You're running so fast."

Hearing the other party's annoying tone, Hoshino Hitomi was so angry that she pulled the other party's cheeks hard, and then said with a fake smile:

"How dare you say that... It's because you turned off my alarm clock and didn't wake me up, so I woke up late this morning. And you even dared to write a note saying that I'm a lazy sleeper!"

Jinpei Matsuda let out a low cry of pain and then raised his hand to rub his red and swollen face.

"Your hands are really strong..."

He looked puzzled and said, "It's okay if I get up late. Can the sky fall down?"

Hoshino Hitomi snorted in displeasure and said in a dark tone: "Of course the sky won't fall on my side. You are the ones who should be worried. You haven't returned home so late. Aren't you afraid of being scolded by your instructor?"

At this time, Hagiwara Kenji saw the two people from afar, walked towards them quickly, put his arms around their shoulders, and asked curiously:

"Ah~ What's going on? Why is Hitomi-chan so angry so early in the morning?"

Hoshino Hitomi said helplessly: "I'm not angry, I just feel that I delayed your return to the police academy..."

She then glared at Matsuda Jinpei and complained to Hagiwara Kenji with a face full of resentment:

"It's all the fault of that idiot Zhen Ping! He had nothing to do, so he came to my room early in the morning and turned off my alarm clock. He didn't even wake me up, and he even wrote a note saying that I was a lazy sleeper."

Matsuda Jinpei scratched his cheek with a guilty look on his face. "I didn't turn off your alarm on purpose. I just noticed that the hour hand was a little loose... so I took apart the parts inside, repaired it and reassembled it, but I accidentally forgot to turn it back to the alarm time you set."

Hoshino Hitomi narrowed her red eyes slightly and said through gritted teeth: "What a careless thing to do...Okay, I'll just take this as your kindness."

"Then why don't you just wake me up? Do you want to see me in a state of panic?"

Matsuda Jinpei's eyes twitched when he heard that, and then he saw her face puffed up like a pufferfish due to anger, and smiled carelessly:

"Hey, hey, are you really holding a grudge? It's not the first time we've been punished by Instructor Onitsuka. At most, we'll just take care of the bathhouse hygiene for a few days before graduation. Why do you care so much?"

The corners of Hoshino Hitomi's mouth twitched slightly, and she said in an ambiguous tone: "It is really a blessing for your instructor Onitsuka to have a few hardworking and good students like you."

Hagiwara Kenji felt like he had missed some important information, and asked in disbelief, "Wait, was Jinpei-chan staying at Hitomi-chan's house last night?"

Hoshino Hitomi answered sincerely, "Yes, that idiot Jinpei got drunk at the izakaya at around 12 o'clock last night, so I took him home first."

Upon hearing this, Kenji Hagiwara's face darkened, and he skillfully put the blame on Jinpei Matsuda.

He frowned, and his tone was rarely serious, and he scolded: "Forget about Tong-chan, she is too young to understand. Xiao Zhenping, why did you join in the nonsense? Is it appropriate for you, an adult man, to stay in a girl's house at night?"

Matsuda Jinpei said speechlessly: "I resisted at first, but do you think I could have resisted her?"

Seeing the two arguing again, Hoshino Hitomi hurriedly separated them.

"Hey, why are you guys arguing again? What's wrong with him staying at my house for a night? I just let him sleep in the guest bedroom."

Hagiwara Kenji sighed softly, rubbed her furry head gently, and said earnestly:

"Tong-chan, you trust us too much... You have to understand that we are all very good at dismantling things, especially Xiao Zhenping. Even if your room door is locked, we still have many ways to open it. What if we want to do something bad to you while you are sleeping one day?"

When Jinpei Matsuda heard this, he immediately understood the other party's hint. He immediately got angry and asked, "Hey, Hagi, you think I'm too beastly, don't you?!"

Hoshino Hitomi said helplessly, "Yeah, I get it. I will listen to Kenji."

Hagiwara Kenji smiled with relief, "Well, I'm glad that Hitomi-chan understands~"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hagiwara Kenji's gaze unconsciously lingered on the other person's bitten lip. His eyes gradually became deep, as if shrouded in a faint shadow.

Those originally bright violet eyes now seemed a little dim, revealing an indescribable emotion.

He immediately regained his calm demeanor and asked with a smile, "So... nothing should have happened to you last night, right?"

Hoshino Hitomi replied calmly, "Of course not. After Jinpei drank the hangover soup, we went back to our rooms to sleep."

Seeing that the other party was deliberately concealing the truth, Hagiwara Kenji felt a pain in his heart, but he still forced a smile and replied, "Oh, so that's it..."

Matsuda Jinpei listened silently at the side, snorted in dissatisfaction, and thought to himself: This woman didn't even move her eyes when she lied. She was so cruel when she lied. Maybe she had lied to us several times before. She is really cruel...

Seeing that both of them looked unhappy, Hitomi Hoshino couldn't help but have a hint of doubt in her eyes, but she didn't ask. She just had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Hitomi-chan."

"Yanji, what's wrong..."

Hoshino Hitomi's voice suddenly paused, then her eyes widened and she froze on the spot.

The tall man next to her suddenly leaned towards her and took the opportunity to lick the corner of her lips with the tip of his tongue. He did it so fast that she didn't even react in time.

Hagiwara Kenji stood up and said with a smile: "I saw some bread crumbs around Hitomi's mouth, so I helped her clean it up~"

Matsuda Jinping stood there in a daze, his face full of disbelief. After he came to his senses, he clenched his fists and shouted, "Hagiwara!!!"

Looking at the two people fighting in front of him, Hoshino Hitomi's eyebrows jumped, then she tied one with each hand, separated the two temporarily, and scolded:

"You guys are still in kindergarten, right? You always fight at the slightest provocation!"

She then took their hands and forced them to shake hands, "Okay, we are all good brothers, don't fight or quarrel, just shake hands and make peace."

The two men's hands were clenched so hard that they made crackling sounds. The veins on the back of their hands instantly bulged out and their faces were extremely distorted.

Seeing the reluctant looks on the two people's faces, Hoshino Hitomi swept back and forth between the two with a cold look, silently posing a threat.

Seeing this, the two suppressed their anger and gave each other a smile that was uglier than crying.

Hoshino Hitomi said with a look of disgust: "Tsk, your smile is really ugly. You should really use my phone to take a picture of your ugly face and use it as a screen saver. This way, if a thief wants to steal my phone, he will be scared away with just one look."
