Chapter 107 Are you of the dog zodiac?
"Haruko..." Katsuragi Keika came in, calling out my name. Originally asleep, Katsuragi Toshihiko woke up as soon as he heard the voice, and suddenly opened his eyes, coincidentally meeting my line of sight. I felt a bit embarrassed, scratching the back of my head, and unconsciously took a step back.
"You're here." Katsuragi Toshihiko stood up and helped cover Hoshitani with a blanket.
"Big brother, how is Little Star now?" Bai Mingjia asked.
Bo Junyan gazed at me with a profound look, then said: "She's much better now, but she was just shouting for Mu Mingyu. I think the person she wants to see most right now is probably Mu Mingyu."
"Wow, I didn't think she was so close to Haruko! I thought the little star would be calling out for her mom. Haruko, you really get along well with Little Star!" Kōmyōka looked at me with a sly grin.
I nodded and smiled: "I've always felt a connection with Xiaoxingxing too."
"Come with me under the clear sky." Katsuragi Toshihiko suddenly said to me.
I looked at him suspiciously: "Is there something? Just say it here..."
Bo Junyan furrowed his handsome eyebrows and said displeased: "Let you come over, just come over." It's still so overbearing and domineering, why do I have to listen to him? But Bo Mingjia pushed me in front of Bo Junyan, she blinked ambiguously at me and said: "Big brother must have something important to say to you, otherwise he wouldn't let only you follow him, not even letting me listen. You two go slowly, there must be a lot of heart-to-hearts to talk about, it's fine with me here, you can rest assured!"
I glared at Kaori Hyuga, and Toshihiko Hyuga gave me a dirty look before leaving the room. Kaori immediately said to me: "Akane, go after him! The task of melting the iceberg is yours now, don't lose face for us girls!" What's with this? Who says I'm going to chase after Toshihiko Hyuga? I don't have any feelings for him at all!
Kashiwagi took me to the courtyard, where there were many flowers and grasses, so the air was very fresh. I took a deep breath, feeling refreshed, and almost forgot about Kashiwagi's existence. Kashiwagi snorted, and I suddenly opened my eyes, looking at him, swallowing hard, and asked in a dignified tone: "What do you want to talk to me about now? If it's not something important, don't bother saying it, I don't want to waste time. By the way, what you said yesterday was really over the line, you seriously hurt my friend's feelings, she just generously forgave you."
"Friend?" Bai Junyan sneered, then looked at me with a gaze that seemed to be looking at an idiot. He continued, "You're so quick to consider someone a friend, I'd say you're either extremely naive or extremely ignorant."
"You——" I was about to blow up, how could Bai Junyan's mouth be so poisonous? Did he have to say such hurtful things? I endured it and thought to myself, I didn't come here today to argue with Bai Junyan nonstop. I'm a person of quality, I won't stoop to his level. "If you just want to find an opportunity to humiliate me, then I'll excuse myself. If there's really nothing else, then I'll take my leave." Only a fool would stand there waiting for him to scold.
But Kojirō tightly grasped my hand and wouldn't let go, which only infuriated me. I bit his hand hard, but he didn't pull back or struggle; instead, he furrowed his brow, a cold glint in the corner of his mouth as he looked down at me with an air of detachment: "Are you a dog?"
