Chapter 524 It's Not That Time Yet
It has to be said that Reina's cheerful personality and innocent romance are very likable, allowing her to quickly integrate into the entire class and be accepted by everyone.
Even when facing a playboy like Kurama Rentaro who has almost lost the right to choose his spouse and has a lot of negative comments, Reina did not change her attitude and continued to get along with him with a smile on her face, which moved Kurama Rentaro.
However, he had no chance to get close to Reina. Every time he tried to get close to her, he would be stopped by the girls in the class. He would be sent away with a few words by the girls who looked at him with contempt on their faces, which made him extremely angry.
"Is this necessary? Is this necessary?"
Kurama Rentaro complained to Aize about the girls' brutality, but he did not receive any further sympathy or compassion from Aize.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Reina works at Shinadu Village. Grandpa must have used a lot of connections to find such an employee. If you attack her casually, Grandpa will probably take out the family heirloom sword to chop you."
Aize's simple words made Kurama Rentaro's face turn green on the spot.
Because he knew that Aize was definitely not joking.
Given how strict my grandfather is, if he dares to take action against the employees of Shinadu Village, there is a real possibility that he will be wiped out.
What's even more terrifying is that his family really has a famous sword that has been passed down from generation to generation. It is said that it was passed down from Kurama Genjuro's great-grandfather, and it has a history of nearly three hundred years.
His grandfather treasured the sword very much. Apart from himself, only Aize, the grandson regarded as the successor of Kurama Genjuro, had ever touched it.
Kurama Rentaro once heard from his father that the sword was used by the successive generations of the Kurama family as a kaishakunin. Once someone in the family committed a serious crime and had to commit seppuku to apologize, the head of the family would use this sword to behead him, allowing the person who committed seppuku to die faster and avoid the pain and torture...
Thinking of this, Kurama Rentaro's teeth began to tremble.
"I was just chatting him up, why do you have to rush into seppuku kaishaku...?!"
Even though he was shouting so loudly, Kurama Rentaro finally became obedient and didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of Reina anymore, for fear that his ghost-like grandfather would suddenly pop up from behind and chop off his head.
It is really not worth sacrificing the big head for the small head's sake.
Reina didn't know that she was protected unintentionally. She was still walking around the classroom with great energy and greeting every classmate.
She greeted and became friends with people including Yoshino Asatake and Masako Hitachi.
In response, Hitachi Mako accepted it generously and quickly became familiar with Reina.
On the other hand, Yoshino Asatake, perhaps because she has never made any friends so far and still cares about her own family affairs and insists on not involving others, she is somewhat uncomfortable with Reina's enthusiasm.
Of course, perhaps because the situation is different now, Yoshino Asatake was not as cold as she was when facing Aize in the past. She still responded to Reina well, but remained polite on the surface and did not seem to intend to go deeper.
This made Reina think that she was hated for a while, until she learned the identity of Yoshino Asatake from Aize.
"Asauchi... isn't that Princess Hoori's?!"
Reina was shocked.
"You know?"
Aize was also a little surprised.
"Yes, my grandfather told me." Reina nodded repeatedly and said, "My grandfather's father... that is, my great-grandfather once lived in Hoori. My grandfather heard a lot about Hoori from him, so I was curious about Hoori and started to like this place after I came into contact with it."
This seems to be the original reason why Reina came to Hoori.
"I, I just spoke to the princess casually? Wow wow wow... Is this considered treason and the only way to atone for it is death?"
Reina panicked and even started speaking Japanese strangely.
"Not really." Aize quickly tried to comfort her, saying, "Your Highness, the Princess, but it was a long time ago that the Asauchi family became the Lord of the Suizhi. Although they still have a certain status and influence, it's not disrespectful to even talk to them. Just treat them normally."
"Is it okay?" Lena was stunned and asked, "Will there be any problem?"
"What's the problem?" Aize said calmly, "I am like this anyway, and I don't see any problem with it."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were listening could no longer listen.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, he is different from us."
"We are just ordinary people, so we should show some respect to the miko."
"Is this guy the blind date of the Miko-sama? Or is he the only one who is approved by the Miko-sama and can get along with her?"
"He may become the miko's husband in the future, so he can certainly treat it with a normal attitude. Reina-chan, you must not learn from him."
A group of men and women who were sitting close to each other spoke up one after another, including Kurama Rentaro.
"What?" Reina looked at Aize in surprise and asked in a fuss, "So Aize is the princess' partner?"
Yoshino Asatake, who was listening to the conversation not far away, blushed slightly.
When Hitachi Mako saw this scene, an auntie smile appeared on her face.
"It hasn't come to that yet." Ai Ze was amused by Reina's exaggerated expression and said, "Anyway, don't pay attention to those weird things. You are not from Hoori anyway, so just use your own way to get along with Miss Asatake."
"Yes, sir!"
Reina immediately responded with a serious face like a loyal subject, making everyone present laugh.
The day's classes became less boring because of the arrival of Lena, a happy person.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to go home from school.
As soon as the bell rang, Reina was the first to pack up her things, said hello to everyone, and ran out of the classroom.
Her working hours start after school, and including weekends, her work is not easy at all.
Working in a hotel has always been very demanding. Not only does it require certain physical strength, but there are also many rules. Even Aize finds it very troublesome. People like Kurama Rentaro think that this is not a job for human beings. Otherwise, Kurama Koharu would not have gone to work at Tanishinya and become the younger sister of Kurama Roka.
Reina has to work and go to school at the same time, so you can imagine that it's not easy.
But seeing how energetic and spirited she looks, there shouldn't be any problem, right?
The students in the class also went back to their homes and looked for their mothers. Even Hitachi Mako said goodbye to Aize and Asatake Yoshino with a smile and walked out of the classroom alone.
This was what Hitachi Mako had agreed on on the way to school this morning.
She said that since Aize and Asatake Yoshino have decided to try to get along with each other, she naturally cannot be a light bulb.
Originally her duty was to be a bodyguard for Asatake Yoshino, but with a more powerful flower protector like Aize around, she had nothing to worry about.
So, Hitachi Mako took the initiative to suggest that from now on, after school, as long as they had no prior appointments, that would be the time for Aize and Asatake Yoshino to be alone together.
She would go directly to the market to buy vegetables, go home to do housework, cook, or even do homework. In short, she would definitely not disturb Aize and Asatake Yoshino.
Cong Yu also expressed the same thing, saying that whether it was morning exercises or exercise after school, as long as it was not necessary, she would not show up to disturb.
"Otherwise, if we secretly see something we shouldn't see, we will be guilty."
When saying this, Cong Yu smiled slyly, and combined with Hitachi Moko's teasing expression, it was a perfect interpretation of what a bad friend is.
In response to this, Asatake Yoshino blushed and even became angry and embarrassed, and asked Hitachi Mako and Cong Yu to quickly slip away with a smile.
"Really? Mozi and Lady Congyu are too distant. Wouldn't it be better if they just stayed together?"
On the way home, Aize and Chaowu Yoshinori deliberately chose a small path with less traffic, avoiding the crowd while walking towards home.
Asatake Yoshinori held her schoolbag in both hands and said these words angrily.
"Don't mind them, they are just making fun of us." Aize didn't take it seriously and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, we are together at school, and the time before and after dinner is about the same. After a while, they will naturally get bored."
"Mozi seems very happy." Chaowu Yoshino murmured unsatisfactorily: "Is it so worth being happy if you're not with me?"
"That's not what she said, is it?" Aize glanced at Chaowu Fangnai and said, "She is just caring about you in her own way. Apart from Mr. Anqing, she is probably the one who cares about your interpersonal relationships the most."
The reason why Cong Yu was not mentioned was because both Aize and Asatake Yoshino felt that she would not be happy.
Although it was not said explicitly, everyone had actually discovered in their daily interactions that sometimes Cong Yu would leave quietly alone, as if she did not want to disturb the normal lives of ordinary people and would feel a little concerned about her presence.
There was no way. When everyone gathered together to eat, Cong Yu couldn't join them. If she just watched from the side, it would only make people feel uncomfortable.
The same is true when she is with others. Because others cannot see her, Aize and others cannot talk to her suddenly, otherwise it will be like talking to herself in the air in the eyes of others, which will bring some bad rumors.
Therefore, whenever everyone gathered together to eat, or when there were outsiders present, Cong Yu would either listen silently from the side, reducing his presence, or quietly leave.
When she was away, no one knew where she went, and no one knew what she was doing. There was always a feeling that this person was isolated by the ordinary world and could not gain a foothold in the real world.
Yoshino Asatake and Mako Hitachi once told Aize something.
"It seems that Lord Cong Yu has become much more cheerful since you came."
"When Lord Aize is at home, Lord Cong Yu appears more often."
Recalling these words, Aize suddenly became concerned about Cong Yu's affairs.
Increasing the time I spend with Yoshino Asatake is undoubtedly equivalent to reducing the time I spend with Cong Yu.
It was fine before. Cong Yu would accompany him during morning exercises and exercises after school. Even when Aize was doing homework in the room, Cong Yu would be by his side.
Now, with Yoshino Asatake joining the morning exercises, Cong Yu rarely follows her anymore. The time after school has become a time when it is less likely to be disturbed. In order to let Aize and Yoshino Asatake be alone, Cong Yu no longer follows Aize.
So what will she do?
Will you feel lonely?
"…Find some time to have a good chat with that girl."
Aize thought so.
"I always feel that everyone is too concerned about me." Asatake Yoshino didn't know what Aize was thinking, so she continued the previous topic and said, "I'm not a child anymore, so it's okay if you don't worry about me so much, right?"
If this were the case, the former Chao Wu Fang would never tell Aize.
But now, Asatake Yoshino has gradually started to share with Aize some of the things that she was originally reluctant to say.
Yoshino Asatake even said so.
"I wish I was as outgoing as Miss Reina."
Asatake Yoshino actually looked a little envious.
"She also thinks that you might hate her."
Aize told this matter.
“No, it’s not…”
Asatake Yoshino didn't even think twice and directly refuted.
However, before she could finish her sentence, Asatake Yoshino paused.
“Um… Wh-what is this…?!”
She seemed to feel a little uncomfortable, and suddenly started gasping for breath on the spot, her eyes full of panic, her face full of distress, so that the sounds she made became a little wrong.
"What's wrong?"
Aize was stunned at first, then his eyes fixed, as if he had thought of something.
Yoshino Asatake also knew very well what she had encountered and what her current situation was.
“Again? Ha…ha…”
Yoshino Asatake's breathing became more and more distant, and her voice became more and more distressed.
"ah!"
Not long after, with a low growl from Yoshino Asatake, a pair of soft white animal ears popped out from above her head.
“Hoo…Hoo…”
Asatake Yoshino seemed to be relieved and calmed her breathing slightly.
"Mr. Aize..."
The girl turned her moist eyes to Aize, with a charming look that made it hard for people not to think crookedly.
Of course, this is not because Asatake Yoshino is suddenly in heat, but because she looks like this every time she grows animal ears.
"Are you okay?"
Aize temporarily supported Chaowu Yoshino and asked softly.
"fine."
He shook his head towards Takeno Yoshino, but there was no sign of relaxation on his face.
This is only natural.
"It looks like I have to go on another trip tonight."
Aize looked at the animal ears on Asatake Yoshino's head and said lightly.
"Um."
He nodded slowly to Takeshi Yoshino, and his eyes became particularly firm.
I have been exercising with Aize for some time.
Although the time was short and it was impossible for Yoshino Asatake to become very strong, Yoshino Asatake's thoughts never changed from beginning to end.
"This time, don't hold everyone back."
That was all Yoshino Asatake wished for.
