"Awooo—"
Il tried to interrupt Ju Huang by howling like a wolf, but the next second, Shan Ying hit him hard on the head and pulled him out by the fur on his neck.
"You single dog, don't you dare bother Wei Li while she's dating!"
Willy was not affected by this incident. In the past few minutes, he had calmed down, and the heat on his face gradually subsided.
"You didn't bring your keys? Where were you just now? And you even had the mind to send me those kinds of messages..."
Oh no, he made himself blush again.
Fortunately, the people on the other side weren't much better off.
Ju Huang seemed to choke on her saliva, coughing a few times and turning red in the face.
“I’ve been in the library the whole time… You know, I missed a week of class, so I was catching up on the material. Then I got distracted chatting with you and lost track of time… By the time I remembered, it was already this late.”
Kii Kanade should have this studious persona... Whether it's useful or not, it's his now!
His words were full of holes, but fortunately, Willie couldn't focus on finding fault and subconsciously followed his lead, raising a new question.
"Can you leave the school and go home now?"
“I remember your family is from this area…”
Furthermore, the influence of the Hanabishi Society is widespread, so there's no way that Tachibana no Oo wouldn't have a place to stay.
"It's too late, the school gates are all closed, and even the security guard is asleep."
Ju Huang looked completely innocent.
"Then you can contact Teacher Tianhai and ask him to give you a new key..."
Ju Huang's response was to hold up her phone, which showed a missed call, and wave it.
"It's too late. Mr. Tianhai has already left work. He won't answer work calls at this time."
Next, no matter what solutions Vili offered him, Tachibana Phoenix only had one answer.
—It's too late, I can't do it.
"..."
Ju Huang's hand gradually moved upwards, completely encircling Vili's wrist. The boy's body temperature was much higher, causing Vili to shiver subconsciously.
"I really have nowhere else to go..."
He looked up at Vili, almost in a whisper, probably because he was afraid of waking the others in the dormitory.
Please.
-
Listening to the pattering water in the bathroom, Willie sat on the bed, still unable to understand how things had developed into this situation.
He seemed to be affected by something, his head was dizzy and he vaguely led the person into the room.
Could it be... that there is some power in this world that can break through his defenses?
Willy's expression gradually turned serious, his lips pursed slightly, but he suddenly stopped when his gaze fell on the phone screen that was casually placed on the bed.
Immediately afterwards, as if he had done something wrong, he quickly turned off his phone screen and placed it face down on the table.
The main characters in this world are all so strange...
Kii Kanade is like that, and so is Tachibana Oo... They haven't even known each other for very long, so why are they always clinging to me?
Because of the desire to cool off, the dormitory windows were wide open, and the evening breeze lifted the curtains, making the still-damp hair feel cool.
Achoo!
Before Ju Huang arrived, Vili had just finished washing up. After all that fuss, the lights outside the window were already twinkling, and this was the only room in the entire building with its lights still on.
He sneezed, and Vili instinctively shrank back, burying himself completely under the covers, his nose rubbing against the edge of the blanket.
The continuous sound of flowing water was like a lullaby, and drowsiness crept in. Willy unconsciously yawned.
Juhuang lingered in the bathroom for quite a while.
The things he told Willie about not having the key to the hotel were all lies, of course. It was all part of Akiyama's plan to pursue him.
"Listen carefully, we Hualing people never stick to any particular methods when we do things."
The sound of banging on a blackboard could be heard.
"But we are by no means reckless fools."
"The saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.' If it were in the past, I might have advised you to do some background research on the young master's wife first and come up with four, five, or six plans."
Akiyama stroked his chin, while Tachibana no Higanbana below couldn't help but frown.
He hates doing this kind of paperwork the most...
“But the situation is urgent now. According to you, that boy from the Kii family is also eyeing our young master's wife, and he even became acquainted with her before you did…”
"I met Wei Li first!"
Akiyama pushed up his sunglasses and glanced impatiently at Tachibana, who had interrupted him.
"If you're so capable, wait until their wedding and say the same thing."
Ju Huang was speechless at her words and couldn't help but straighten up, her grip on the pen tightening.
Satisfied that he had quieted down, Akiyama continued:
"So we can't use those conventional methods now; we have to take drastic measures."
"I've been searching through all the military books in China these past few days and found a plan..."
She took off her sunglasses and looked intently at Ju Huang.
"It's called—the Beauty Trap."
Standing in front of the mirror, which was blurred by water vapor, Ju Huang licked her dry lips, casually wiped the mirror with her hand, and looked at the person in the mirror.
His once unruly eyebrows and eyes were now slightly downturned, revealing a straight nose and well-defined lips. He deliberately left two buttons undone on his pajamas, revealing faint muscle lines. His orange hair was still dripping wet, probably because he had just taken a shower, and all his aggressiveness had been completely suppressed.
She should be considered somewhat attractive, right?
Thinking this, Juhuang tugged at her collar somewhat uncomfortably.
No, no, no... isn't this a bit too obvious?
There was no other sound coming from outside the door. Ju Huang took two steps, but then stopped and suddenly retreated.
His gaze fell on the bag he had placed in the corner, and he suddenly remembered what Sister Qiushan had said.
"When you feel lost, just open the inside pocket of your backpack."
Inner pocket...
Juhuang squatted down, rummaged around in her bag for a bit, and found what looked like a square box.
What is it?
He raised an eyebrow and took the item out in one go.
The orange-haired boy frowned as he looked at the packaging box in his hand. It looked very familiar, as if he often saw it in places like convenience stores, but he couldn't quite place it.
As the tension subsided, he turned the box over and softly read the words on it.
"Latex type...granular design...large size...fragrance-free..."
Why is the explanation so vague?
He muttered something unconsciously, and was about to open the box when he suddenly stopped and froze on the spot.
Wait, wait...
As if it were burning her hand, the thing in her hand fell to the ground with a thud, but just before it hit the ground, Ju Huang picked it up again, stuffed it haphazardly into her bag, and pulled the zipper several times with trembling hands.
Sister Akiyama's confusion is completely different from what I understand as confusion, isn't it?!
Dirty adults!
He never thought of that... never...
The condensation on the mirror had dissipated, clearly reflecting the flushed-faced boy in front of him.
