I always wondered if the line shouldn't be adjusted to "Why are you... up?" or something like that instead, the idea of the line is that she could be asking why he's standing up in the bath or why he's got a boner. A bit of vagueness would probably help things out.

If someone got a better one I stand corrected. I imagined he suddenly got a boner -> proceed to stand up (before she notices) and cover his crotch with both hands -> she then asks why he suddenly got up (while also probably looking distressed and red in the face). This isn't "porn" so it probably follow ecchi rules of conduct.
It's actually implied he hit her in the face with his dick in his rush to jump up. That's why she's touching that part of her face. So, in that case, she'd know about the boner (she's seen it before though, and they're siblings, so she's less prone to absolutely freak out about it compared to the other girls though).
Well I'd be damned. If that's the case, I've broken the rule of not translating stuff without knowing the circumstances first. I thought it was a standard ecchi scene "kyaa - run away", but thanks for sharing this information. I wasn't 100% satisfied with my translation but I can't think of a better line that also conveys the implied backstory as a standalone image... Porn... porn never changes...
I have always interpreted it as a situation where Rito for some reason had to bathe with his sister but then has a normal physiological action which, to her annoyment, prompts him to suddenly get up which surprises Mikan and with a slightly camouflaged aroused voice she asks him why he had to suddenly physically stand up while she was still talking to him...
In short, she probably knows why he stood up which explains her blushing.
