Chapter 39 Four People, Two Unmarried Couples

  There were no adults present, and the four youths stood facing each other. Kiriya Ayumu and Iriya Souta faced each other, while Kiriya Tsubasa and Iriya Yushi stood behind them. However, Kiriya Tsubasa had a subtle air of protection, whereas Iriya Yushi was hiding...

  There's a somewhat strange atmosphere.

  At this time, even the housekeeper was not there, and it is unknown why the couple sent away all the servants. ... Can they say that they do not want any servants to be present?

  However, Tsumugi and Shizuka didn't stay upstairs for long and went downstairs. They avoided the pure and puzzled gaze of Tsumugi Akane, with Shizuka even going to the kitchen to make tea as an excuse to escape.

  "Cough, cough, everyone sit down..." At this time, Akogi Tane slightly revealed the majesty of a family head, but after everyone sat down, Akogi Tane's face suddenly changed, and he wailed like a ghost, throwing himself at Akogi Tsumugi sitting next to him. "Waaah, my precious! Papa is sorry, ahah!"

  Akane Motomiya: "..."

  "..."

  Irie Brother and Sister: “…”

  Inside, Shizuka Ryoko's head burst out with a black cross, and her fingers even trembled. ... Can the child's mother express that she was surprised by the sudden change of the child's father? Who is being scared here?

  Especially if Rie heard his inner monologue in the room at first, Tsurugi thinks he's not like his dad, but rather serious and would definitely despise him! This is simply the kind of old rascal, isn't it?!

  "Father, can you tell me what you did wrong to me?"

  She really couldn't think of anything he would have done wrong to her...

  Actually, it felt very comfortable for Du Mu to lean on Xue Yu's body, thanks to the Snow Jade Bangle, and most importantly, he was holding his precious daughter, but why did he feel a chill down his spine and a bit of unease in his heart?

  Akagi's sharp and icy gaze fell on Akagi Tsubasa's hand, which was holding Akagi Tsukino's, and he slightly narrowed his eyes.

  Irie Yuu felt that the temperature had dropped again, and she unconsciously sat closer to Irie Takamori. Irie Takamori seemed to be completely unaware of it, still with his usual gentle expression.

  "Have you met Yushi and Souta yet?" Kaito said with a bit of hesitation.

  Akane glanced at her brother and sister across from her with a faint smile, nodding slightly. Does what Akane said have something to do with them?

  Just as he was about to explain, Lin Mu was suddenly taken away by him and sat far away from Lin Mu Liu. Lin Mu Liu's eyes flashed with a subtle dark color that was hard to detect, while the Jiang siblings looked at Lin Mu in confusion, wondering what was going on.

  "Dad, what are you doing?" Akagi Tsumugi looked at Akagi Tan in surprise.

  "Oh, I just wanted to tell you that your brother and Yu Shi are an unmarried couple!"

  ……

  Complete silence in the room.

  Akane Kaito: ...Then you should be apologizing to Akane Kaori, why are you apologizing to her?

  Akane's eyes flashed with a hint of shock and panic, her breathing quickened for an instant, but was soon replaced by anger, her blue eyes beginning to freeze over.

  Irie Kōta: …… Doesn't he know that his own sister and Kawachi Satsuki are engaged?

  Ruoyi: ……The girl is completely stunned, her mind is blank, and there's a lingering eerie sound...It's all over...She actually has a marriage contract with the ice mountain man!Damn it!If she were Xia Ri, who was fire, she would absolutely not want to meet the cold winter, meet the ice!!!

  Do you know what happens when summer and winter cohabitate? Can you imagine?!... The girl just can't imagine ahahahaha! Especially since she's a girl who is extremely afraid of the cold, it's really unbearable for her ahahahaha! She doesn't have confidence in using fire to melt ice ahahahaha!

  The girl really wants to sigh and shout towards the sky, who gave her a predetermined man, ah!

  In the kitchen, Shizuka Ryoko heard Katsuragi's words and a complex glint flashed in her eyes. She brought out tea and refilled everyone's cups. The entire space remained silent and icy, as if frozen solid by Katsuragi's chilling aura. His face was deathly pale.

  "Baby and Dodo are also an unmarried couple......" The words of Shizuka Ryoko dropped a bomb into this eerie, suffocating space, and Irie Yui finally came back to her senses and shrieked, "What?!"

  How is this possible?! Isn't this just binding all four of them together?! Such a strange and confusing relationship! Which soul is actually in control here?!

  The two people who were supposed to be the calmest were surprised, Akagi Towa and Irie Souta's eyes met...

  The two families were shocked and flustered upon hearing the news of their engagement, but at the same time they were also extremely angry. Did their family need to resort to such a thing? And it was between two people!

  "Ryoko!" Akagi's eyebrows furrowed, he had originally planned to only announce the flow of Akagi's trees, but she went and said everything.

  Shizuka Ryoko didn't care about him. Although she extremely doted on Katsuragi Aya, she also didn't want to be so unfair to only Katsuragi Tsurugi, after all, both hands were made of flesh, and Katsuragi Hatanaka was clearly biased towards Katsuragi Aya, turning this two-choice-one into a one-on-one.

  The agreement between the Katsuragi and Irie families was that at least one of the two Katsuragi children would have to marry into the Irie family. Of course, if both were to marry in, it would be even more in line with Mr. Irie's wishes, but the agreement still allowed for either or. If Katsuragi Kyouya were to marry Irie Mio, then the engagement between Katsuragi Akane and Irie Tadashi would cease to exist, but if Katsuragi Kyouya refused, then Katsuragi Akane and Irie Tadashi would still be engaged. Conversely, the same applied. If neither couple confirmed which pair of fiancés would get married, they would both remain in an engagement relationship until the day it was decided.

  After listening to Shizuka Ryoko's explanation, several people fell silent.

  The willow branches droop and cover up the turbulent waves inside, where others can't see, her hands are clenched into fists.

  It's either one of them, which pair will become the unmarried couple is uncertain.

  When Akagi Aya heard the four words "unmarried husband and wife", a figure flashed through her mind, but she couldn't grasp any feeling, and could only slightly furrow her brow. She hadn't expected it to be this kind of situation - Akagi Taka had just said sorry, which really did have something to do with her, yet afterwards he never mentioned it again, as if leaning towards her. And her mother chose fairness instead.
