After feeding Kanna.
Lin didn't neglect the others.
He picked up a plump, rosy cherry and brought it to Akashiya Moka's lips:
"Moka, ahh~~"
Akashiya Moka's eyes glinted. A slight curve formed on her lips, a smile emerging, and she parted her red lips.
She gently took the cherry into her mouth.
Lin then looked at Shuzen Akua:
"Akua, open up."
He said, picking up another cherry.
Seeing this, Shuzen Akua's eyes flickered and her cheeks flushed faintly.
She was clearly a little unused to public displays of affection in front of so many people.
But she obediently opened her mouth anyway.
She gently took the cherry Lin offered to her lips.
Lin smiled and looked at Shuzen Kokoa.
As her eyes met Lin's, a blush spread across Shuzen Kokoa's cheeks.
A flash of panic crossed her eyes.
"I-I'll get it myself!"
She said hurriedly, reaching out to grab a strawberry.
Lin had never explicitly stated his intentions.
Therefore, their official relationship was still 'brother-in-law and sister-in-law'.
Before their relationship was official, she was very shy about this kind of ambiguous behavior.
At the same time, she felt a little resentful.
Lin always treated her like an insider, yet he never made his feelings clear. Did he expect her to make the first move?
"Alright then..."
Seeing this, Lin smiled faintly.
"Lin, Lin, I want more."
Kanna grabbed Lin's left arm with her small hands, shaking it gently as she looked up at him, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Her voice was cute and child-like.
"Okay, but wait a moment."
Lin said with a smile to Kanna, then took two cherries to the kitchen to feed Akasha and Tohru.
He returned to the living room and continued feeding Kanna.
Every so often, he would also feed Akashiya Moka and Shuzen Akua.
At 11:30 PM.
Lin opened the Mist Gate, and everyone entered the log cabin in the Mirage Realm.
They all went to their respective rooms to sleep.
A little over ten minutes later.
"Lin, I'm here!"
Tohru came to Lin's room again.
The two had just consummated their relationship the night before, and Tohru's love and desire for Lin had already reached explosive levels.
They were in the honeymoon phase, inseparable.
Lin cast a soundproofing barrier.
Then, they thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Akashiya Moka, Akasha, Shuzen Akua, Shuzen Kokoa, and Kanna, who were not yet asleep, all sensed it.
Kanna was a little clueless about it.
But the experienced Akasha, Akashiya Moka, and Shuzen Akua naturally knew what Lin was doing when he cast the barrier.
Who else could it be but Tohru?
Thinking of the pleasure of such close-quarters combat, they couldn't help but blush.
Their gazes flickered and their bodies grew slightly warm.
Their eyes seemed to grow hazy.
Although Shuzen Kokoa had no experience, she could also guess what was happening.
She couldn't help but fantasize about what it would feel like to 'play mahjong' with Lin.
All sorts of images appeared in her mind.
Her face grew hot, and her heart began to race.
The next day, just after 7:00 AM.
Lin was the first to open his eyes. He woke Tohru, who was still deep in sleep, and the two of them got ready and out of bed.
When they came out to the living room,
Akasha and the other girls were already there.
They couldn't help but give Lin and Tohru meaningful looks.
The pair, however, remained perfectly composed.
Lin gave Akasha, Akashiya Moka, and Shuzen Akua a good morning kiss, and patted Kanna's head.
He opened the Mist Gate and they returned to Earth.
Without having breakfast, Lin took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and left home for the station to go to school.
Everything was pretty much as usual.
The only difference was that since joining the Light Music Club, he now had afternoon tea to attend at school.
The days passed one by one.
Before he knew it, it was Friday again.
After spending time with them over the past few days, the Codex entries for the remaining Light Music Club members, Akiyama Mio and Kotobuki Tsumugi, had also been successfully unlocked.

Friday, just after 4:00 PM.
Having finished his work early, Lin said goodbye to Kaguya Shinomiya, Chika Fujiwara, and Nodoka Manabe and left the Student Council room.
He didn't go to the Light Music Club today.
He sent a message to Tainaka Ritsu.
When Lin arrived at the school gate, he saw Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana waiting for him there.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Lin said with a smile as he walked over.
"We just got here too."
Seeing Lin arrive, the corners of Yotsuya Miko's mouth lifted slightly.
After all, it had been a few days since they'd last seen each other.
Yurikawa Hana greeted him with a cheerful smile, "Hello, Lin-san! Long time no see."
The last time they had met was when she found out Lin was the Student Council President.
They hadn't seen each other since.
At first, she had thought about chatting with Lin via email.
After all, Lin was tall and handsome, and seemed to have a nice personality.
But as she gradually realized the nature of Yotsuya Miko and Lin's relationship, she immediately suppressed the idea.
She wasn't the type of woman to steal her best friend's man.
"Long time no see."
Lin looked at Yurikawa Hana.
He smiled at her.
Then he said, "Shall we go?"
"Okay."
Yotsuya Miko nodded.
Lin walked on Yotsuya Miko's left, with Yurikawa Hana on her right.
The three of them headed to a karaoke place.
On the way, Yurikawa Hana tilted her head, looking at Lin with curiosity as she asked:
"Lin-san, was it love at first sight for you and Miko?"
Yotsuya Miko's gaze flickered.
Lin raised an eyebrow slightly. "Didn't Miko tell you?"
Yurikawa Hana glanced at Yotsuya Miko and said, as if complaining:
"I did ask, but Miko was being all mysterious and wouldn't say."
"I also asked who confessed first, and she wouldn't say that either."
"So, can you tell me?"
She blinked her big eyes, looking at Lin with a mix of curiosity and anticipation.
Gossip is part of human nature.
Especially when it was about her only best friend's love life.
Lin glanced at Yotsuya Miko and said with a faint smile:
"It was love at first sight for me."
"And I was the one who confessed to Miko."
He had set his sights on Yotsuya Miko from their very first meeting; making her his clansman was no different from a confession.
Hearing Lin say this,
Yotsuya Miko had a strange look in her eyes.
The process of how she and Lin got together was different from that of ordinary people; it could hardly be viewed through the lens of a conventional romance.
"So that's how it was..."
"I really thought it was Miko."
Yurikawa Hana sounded a little disappointed.
She recalled how, when they first met Lin, Yotsuya Miko had stared at his departing figure for quite a while.
That's why she had assumed Miko was the one who confessed to Lin first.
The three of them chatted as they walked, arriving at the karaoke place about twenty minutes later.
Yurikawa Hana sang first.
Then it was Yotsuya Miko's turn.
It had to be said, they both sang quite well. It was mainly because their voices were pleasant; as for technique, they had some, but not much.
When Lin started to sing,
both Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana froze. Their eyes widened slowly as they stared at Lin in disbelief.
It wasn't that he was bad—he was too good!
Although they both thought Lin had a nice speaking voice, they never imagined his singing voice would be this incredible.
They were completely captivated by his singing.
Watching Lin sing, slightly mesmerized, Yurikawa Hana's heart couldn't help but beat faster.
