Chapter 113: Hey, Big Brother...
The Hakewood Mansion
Akane looked at Shizuka and Seijuro, who were pulling a household cart, and then glanced up at the stairs, but her footsteps paused for a moment as she saw a tall figure leaning against the corner of the staircase. He seemed to have noticed her gaze too, and raised his eyes to look back at her, with complex emotions in them that left her momentarily stunned.
This young man's gaze became increasingly complex, but suddenly turned deep and profound, making it impossible for her to continue exploring.
He had been staring at her, and she gradually felt a bit unnatural. After going upstairs, she had to pass by that corner to get back to her room. She seemed to feel the pressure of his gaze, and when she wanted to quietly pass by him, he grabbed her wrist. She frowned at him, "You..."
Her words couldn't continue, this young man suddenly held her tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to embed her into his body, that warm breath sprinkled on her neck, making her stiffen, she was very uncomfortable, such intimate behavior not even Gu Xi Ye had done before.
"You, let me go..." Akagi Towa wanted to struggle, but she couldn't even move, it was really uncomfortable. Was Akagi Kaito being too strange? Why was he treating her like this.
However, Muirneith didn't say a word, but instead held her even tighter, making her breathing almost imperceptibly catch for an instant.
The blue sky suddenly caught the scene above, and her eyes flashed slightly as she looked at Rieko Yoshiko, "Yoshiko-san, nowadays Ayaka-chan is so radiant, no longer as worrisome as before."
In fact, I had met Qingkong Wei and Lin Xiang before, but at that time, Lin Xiang was still the kind of child who didn't dare to look up at people, so it's impossible for him to remember me. Besides, all those things happened many years ago, and now nobody is the same as they used to be.
The Azure Sky family didn't originally put much importance on that kind of weak and lowly girl, as she didn't match their noble bloodline. Especially for the Azure Sky and Hakurou families, who were considered nobles among nobles, they naturally wouldn't look highly upon such a girl. Fortunately, the Hakurou family still had an heir like Hakurou Kyoujin, so they wouldn't pay attention to that girl.
It was just a while ago that I heard Shizuka Ryoko say that Kiriya Aoi had changed. Every time they contacted, three sentences wouldn't leave "darling". Although I knew Shizuka Ryoko loved her daughter very much, the overflowing love and doting were unprecedented. Every word she spoke about that girl was filled with warmth, and previously there would be worry in her tone, but now it was full of pride. It made him curious for the first time, what had that weak and timid girl become?
Later, he saw with his own eyes the photo of Shizuka Naoko's e-mail to her mother, and she was really not comparable to the girl in his impression. Her head, which would never be raised, quietly and confidently gazed forward, with a warm and gentle smile, pure and beautiful. Those blue eyes, even through the photo, seemed to give him a very warm feeling of being truly looked at by her. He was really curious about her.
This time back from England, it was the intention of his mother and aunt, but also coincided with his own wishes.
While Shizuka Ryouko heard his words, she was very proud, "Of course! My baby is the best!"
"Has the relationship between Taichou and Katsuragi improved?" Aoi asked, his eyes still fixed on the young couple who hadn't parted ways yet. To him, it was strange, even if Taichou had changed, Katsuragi seemed...
Shizuka Ryoko's eyes became somewhat complicated upon hearing this, "I suppose so, although it's a bit strange, but overall better than before..."
"Is that so......" The smile on Qingkong's face gradually deepened, elegantly lifting the teacup, but not drinking from it. Instead, he gazed at the tea water pattern, rippling in circles...
The scene at the corner was also seen by Kaito Minamoto, who was hiding in the shadows. He had witnessed such special treatment of Akane Minamoto many times before, and even though he had never experienced love himself, he couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in his heart. The young master of the Minamoto family was indeed very unusual, and it made him think in that direction, his heart suddenly aching, but all he could do was smile wryly.
The boundary between guardian and being guarded, I don't know if there will be a day of collapse, but before that, he is just the silent guardian.
"You said you'd get to know me again..." Akagi Kaito suddenly spoke up, his voice filled with a desolation that left Akagi Aya at a loss for words, "But you've always ignored me..."
"I...". Akagi Aoi thought of leaving, his warm breath made her cheeks slightly hot, and her ears were slightly red. Especially when Akagi Kaito spoke, he was right next to her ear, she felt as if he was kissing her small earlobe. She had never encountered such a situation before, hearing his words, she didn't know how to respond. In her heart, they weren't very familiar with each other yet, and his words were too direct.
He couldn't wait for her explanation, so he suddenly let go of her slowly, leaned against the wall, and didn't look at her. He hung his head and stared at the ground, his golden hair covering his eyes. She looked at him in dismay as he opened his mouth to mock himself, "You hate me?"
The boy in front of her shouldn't have lowered his proud head, but he presented this desolate and hurt appearance to her. She realized that she had really hurt the boy's heart, and could only murmur, "Sorry..."
Qin Mu's lips were pursed slightly, the bitterness on her lips was not even a fraction of what was in his heart. What he wanted wasn't her apology.
He suddenly saw the hand stretched out in front of him, fair and slender, then heard her say, "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to, let's start over from now on, okay?"
He suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her, those sincere and warm blue eyes seemed to be an open sky waiting for his response.
"I don't dislike you..." She had never lied, and she had never disliked him in her heart. If her actions had given him the wrong impression, she would apologize and take responsibility for hurting him. This young man was not someone who would normally be humble, but he looked so downcast in front of her - she really had hurt him. Previously, she just didn't know how to interact with this person. He ignored his original body, yet treated her uniquely, making her feel unnatural all along. But now, she couldn't forgive herself for hurting someone just because of that.
His long, slender hand grasped hers, and the deep, dark colors in his eyes faded away as a bright light began to rise. The softness and warmth of her hand made him reluctant to let go.
The girl in front of him is the first girl he really wants to get close to, the only girl who has moved his heart, and the girl with whom he has had the idea of spending a lifetime together. Holding her hand, he really doesn't want to let go again. He doesn't want to be the one who has to quit her.
Falling in love with someone sometimes only takes a moment, but forgetting someone can take a lifetime. He doesn't want that kind of lifetime.
"Call me Xiang Liu..." His eyes revealed hope and expectation, he wanted to hear her call his name. Lin Mu Xiang felt a bit awkward in her heart, after all, this was the original body's older brother, it wasn't quite proper to directly call him by name like that, but this was already the third time he had genuinely asked her to call him Xiang Liu, if she refused again, it seemed like it would hurt his feelings.
For a long time, Lin Mu gazed at Lin Liu's bright eyes, which gradually dimmed. She stretched out her other hand and covered the back of his hand, holding hers in a slight tremble, but even tighter. She softly called out, "Liu..."
Willow Creek...
That soft whisper finally reached his ears, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to caress her beautiful face, his fingertips tracing back and forth at the corners of her eyes. You know? What he loved most was her gaze, the warmth and purity that flowed from it was too tempting to drown in.
"Yī ér......" Such a gentle and intimate term came from the mouth of Lín Mù Chuǎn, causing Lín Mù Yīng Fēi to widen her pure eyes in surprise, "Is... calling me?"
Looking at her pure and cute appearance, the curve of his lips rose higher and higher. For the first time, the sharp and cold blue eyes faded away, leaving only warmth and a smile, "Hmm..."
"......Oh" Such a silly response truly delighted him, he couldn't help but pull her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head. In a place where she couldn't see, all his expressions could only be described as satisfied.
Only in the dark, the clear and transparent eyes of the tree saw that pair of blue eyes filled with tenderness and deep affection for the person in his arms, the purple crystal-like eyes dimmed slightly. So... it was really like that.
……
The arrival of Qingkong made Yakumo's mansion gain one more person, and he would also transfer to Bingdi.
In the morning, those who went to school with Akane Motomiya and Akira Motomiya apparently included Aoi Sora.
She extremely dislikes it when someone occupies her line of sight.
The blue sky didn't mind his sharp and cold gaze, shrugged his shoulders, and even innocently looked back at him. Honestly, did he have to be so obvious in his jealousy, directly confirming the doubts in his heart? Honestly, if he continued like this, he would directly lay his cards on the table, grab your handle, and how could you fall in love with someone you shouldn't...
He saw the meaning in his eyes, and a dark light flashed in his pupils. He no longer paid attention to Qingkong Wei, but instead looked at the girl on the side. The sudden change of tenderness made Qingkong Wei secretly curse, was this the rhythm of the iceberg falling in love?
"Xiang Er, let's go..." Lin Mu Yu opened the car door and let Lin Xiang Feng get in, ignoring Qing Kong.
The blue sky didn't mind, directly opening the passenger seat door. At this time, he had already changed into Ice Emperor's school uniform, lazily leaning against the back of the chair, his fingers still tapping out a rhythm on the window frame, but his gaze was fixed on the rearview mirror. That's how he made eye contact with Kaito Minaduki's sharp eyes, because Kaito knew he was making funny faces and teasing him through the rearview mirror.
In the end, it's all about shifting one's gaze, no matter how he jumps around.
The blue sky is slightly shrugging its shoulders, with its gaze placed outside, smiling as it watches the constantly fleeting scenery.
But suddenly the clear sky felt a chill on his back, as if he had been stabbed. He turned around to see Lin Mu's eyes looking at him even more coldly and sharply than before. He looked innocent, but suddenly this was what?
The bewildered Qingkong Aihui turned around to look at the girl behind him, and saw that she was staring at him with her clear eyes. Qingkong Aihui couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, realizing it was his cousin Huanlian who was staring at him, and that little scoundrel was jealous!
"What's wrong, Tanaka...?" Aoiro Kaito wanted to pat the head of this pure and innocent girl, but he suspected that Kiryu Kaito would not be able to resist breaking his arm, so he didn't dare to. He didn't hold it against him, men who fall in love are all crazy after all.
"How should I address you..." Akagi Towa finally spoke up, always being corrected on how to address people, she wanted a once-and-for-all way of calling him. Although she wanted to call him "Onii-chan" (older brother), but in reality, her age was older than his, no way. Call him "Aya"? That sounds weird, just like shouting "feed me". Call him "Seijou"? But directly using a relative's surname isn't good either.
"Hmm! Although I didn't expect this girl to be worried about this issue at this time, in fact many people have been worried about his name, and he's already gotten used to it. 'Just call me Brother Biao, I don't mind...'"
Wei Biao directly took possession of the two things she didn't want to be called, and she went dark.
Hey, brother-in-law...
Qīng Tiān Wèi looked at her disapproving eyes, was in a dilemma. Even though many people tangled his name, they still called him Wèi Yē. This pure and cute younger sister didn't like being called that way, what should he do?
"Just call him a monster and be done with it..." The driver suddenly shut his mouth, focusing on driving, as the cold voice of Lin Mu Yu came from beside him.
Qing Kong Wei's eyes turned black, although she thought he was a demon, could she call him that directly?
"I don't mind..." The clear sky and peach blossoms filled her eyes with a smile.
Xu Mu stroked her nose, somewhat speechless. She had never thought that one day she would address someone like this, and it felt unfamiliar to say.
"Really, it's fine, Yōko-chan... just call me 'Yōkai Onii-san' for once..." Seijirou suddenly felt like hearing it, but his cousin still seemed dissatisfied and pouted.
...... Lin Xiang lifted her veil and looked out of the window.
Qīng Tiān Wèi: “……” Is this being ignored?
Watching this scene, it was just like his situation back then, and it curled up the corners of his lips.
"...is really a lovely cousin" Aoi, who had come back to his senses, said with a smile, teasingly. He looked at Kiriya Kaede, who suddenly turned around and retorted, "I'm not lovely..."
Akane Kaito never thought of herself as a cute type.
"Hmph……" The clear sky was almost laughing at the rhythm, isn't it lovely to refute like this? Looking at those innocent blinking bright eyes, looking at that puzzled and unconscious puffed up face, all poking at the cute points. He decided not to call her dear Ayaka-chan anymore, directly calling her cute Ayaka-chan is much better.
"Don't mind this demon..." Xuanmu Jue stroked her head, his movements very gentle, but his sharp and icy gaze stared at Qingkong Yi.
The blue sky sighed again and shrugged its shoulders. Boy, don't always be jealous, it's bad for your health.
Arriving at Ice Emperor, the car of the Mu family entered the students' line of sight, and they immediately knew who had come to school. They all made way, but unexpectedly, apart from seeing the Mu siblings, they also saw a beautiful young man like a fairy! Damn it! The genes of the nobility are really good in this era!
But no one dared to murmur in front of Lin Mu Xiang, and they all looked at the three people entering the school with surprise.
"Adorable Hakuren, your dear and demonic older cousin is going to find his own class now, bye~" Seijou Aofei, who wasn't afraid of death, patted Hakuren's head before leaving. Although those sharp, cold eyes gave off a strong oppressive aura, he had grown up with it since childhood and was used to it. However, when Seijou turned back to give Hakuren a provocative glance, he saw him patting Hakuren's head as if disinfecting her, causing Seijou's mouth to twitch violently, almost rolling his eyes in disgust. The disdain in those blue eyes was absolutely directed at him.
He's really a cleanliness freak, it's terrifying.
"I'm leaving first... bye..." Kiriya Aoi also had some dark lines, came back to her senses and said goodbye to Kiriya Takeru, while Hyodo was already coming over at this time. She walked towards them, then went to the classroom together, leaving Kiriya Takeru standing in place with a flickering gaze, finally turning around and leaving for the high school department.
As soon as he walked into the classroom, he saw two people chasing each other, while everyone else was sitting quietly in their seats waiting for the teacher to arrive.
He has never liked noise, so the people in this class absolutely dare not make noise when he is present. They usually calculate when he will arrive and sit quietly.
But only two people dare to jump in front of him.
"Kentarou! I love it when you stop this crazy woman from Kanagawa! She's going to bite me!" Shiramura Yorinobu shouted as soon as he saw Akagi Kentarou.
It was just that the person known as the crazy woman stopped chasing after Shi Cun Ye Liang when she saw him, smoothed out her disheveled hair from running, and walked towards him with a gentle swaying motion, causing Shi Cun Ye Liang's mouth to twitch violently!
Damn it! This crazy bitch, always pretending to be a lady in front of everyone, but people have already seen through your wicked nature! Get back to Mars, this isn't the place for you!
"Ah, I've come to see you! Are you welcoming me? I specially came all the way from Kanagawa, you know...” The girl slightly covered her lips with a smile and playfully scolded, her almond-shaped eyes blinking repeatedly.
Kaito didn't respond to her, sat back in his own seat, and Shiramura Yoriko hastily sat down beside him, looking at the girl in front of him with a white eye, "I'm telling you! Kirihara Akane! Stop pretending already! Kaito still doesn't know your true nature!"
"You! Courting death!" Qie Yuanchen pinched his ear, disregarding his pleas for mercy. "I must have been blind to have followed someone who dares to defy me like you! What's good about you?!"
"Ahahaha, Xiao Zhen, don't do that, it hurts! Hurts, hurts, hurts!" Xi Cun Ye Liang immediately begged for mercy, wailing loudly.
"Die a painful death!" Chetori Akatsuki gritted her teeth.
"No, no! If you die, nobody will marry you!" Xi Cun Ye Liang struggled to free her ears, but she wouldn't let go until it hurt.
The people in the class covered their faces, this pair of long-distance lovers, it's always like this, and only at this time can they suddenly give you a bombshell, originally they were lovers. But even so, it's still considered a weird couple. After all this time, they should be familiar with each other's ways of getting along. Every time Chika comes from Kanagawa, they will perform similar plays.
He leaned against the windowsill, rested his back on the chair, picked up a book and covered his face with it. At this time, neither Shinmura Taira nor Kirihara Akane dared to disturb him, otherwise he would definitely throw the book over, and hit the target!
"Hey, I think it's terrifying to intervene and bear the consequences. Are you sure you want someone close to you to do something so dangerous?" Chisei Akatsuki asked, nudging him with her shoulder.
Xiyuanye rolled her eyes, "Don't pretend anymore, you're the one who's most interested and eager to move! Go ahead! I'll support you!"
"Cut!" Qie Yuanchen glared at him for a moment, then turned to look at Mu Xiufeng, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he shook his seaweed-like long hair and left the classroom, heading towards the principal's office.
Anyway, she feels that it's quite worth expecting what comes next. She wants to come over with an exchange student identity and have a good time.
