Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 618 He is getting married, but the bride is not me! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"But……"

Hearing this, Nakamichi Kazushi's expression became even uglier. He gritted his teeth, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly because of the struggle. "What if Yumi is really sleeping? With her bad temper, if we wake her up rashly, she will definitely get furious, and the situation will get out of control."

As he spoke, his voice trembled slightly. However, his words seemed to be out of concern for Yumi Horikoshi's anger, but in fact, they were more like he was looking for an excuse to stop everyone.

Ayashiro Noriko frowned slightly, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, and agreed: "That's a problem. We all know Yumi's temper. If we really wake her up, she will get angry and the whole hotel will be in chaos. At that time, it will be really difficult to end it."

Her voice was soft, yet with a hint of helplessness.

Obviously, she was still frightened by her old classmate's daunting morning grumpiness.

Ayashiro Yukio nodded slightly and said solemnly: "That being said, if something really happens to her, it would be unreasonable for us to stand by and watch because we are afraid that she will get angry."

There was a hint of conflict in his tone. On the one hand, he was wary of Yumi's temper, and on the other hand, he was worried about her safety.

"Well... I think we can try to wake up Aunt Yumi in a gentler way."

While everyone was arguing, Mao Lilan pursed her lips, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, then she raised her head and mustered up the courage to make a suggestion, "For example, we can knock on the door gently first, and then call her softly, this way, maybe she won't be so angry."

Waking up Yumi Horikoshi now would certainly make her angry, but if I don't wake her up in time and cause her to miss the fireworks display, she would probably be even angrier by then.

Moreover, whether it was Yumi Horikoshi's previous negative remarks or Kazushi Nakamichi's repeated inexplicable obstructions, they all made her a little worried about the condition of this elder.

Bai Ye nodded slightly to show his agreement: "I think what Xiaolan said makes sense. We can give it a try. After all, none of us want Miss Yumi to miss this fireworks display."

Hearing this, Nakamichi Hezhi showed a hint of hesitation on his face, as if he was struggling with something, but in the end, he nodded reluctantly: "Okay, since you insist so much, then let's give it a try. However, if she really gets angry, don't blame me for not warning you in advance."

Ayashiro Yukio and Ayashiro Noriko looked at each other and expressed their willingness to go together.

After all, they didn't want their old classmates to miss this rare fireworks event because of their negligence.

So, the group walked slowly towards Yumi Horikoshi's room with different thoughts in their minds.

Mao Lilan walked in front, feeling a little nervous but also a little expectant.

I was nervous because I was about to face Yumi's possible anger, but I was also looking forward to waking her up successfully so that I could watch the dazzling fireworks together.

Arriving in front of Yumi Horikoshi's room, she raised her hand and knocked on Yumi's door slowly, her voice so soft that it was almost inaudible: "Aunt Yumi, are you awake? We want to ask you to go watch the fireworks together."

However, the room was still as silent as before, with no response.

The silence was like a pool of stagnant water, making people feel extremely depressed and fearful.

Mao Lilan had no choice but to knock on the door again, this time with a slightly louder voice: "Aunt Yumi..."

But before she could finish, a roar exploded from the house: "Why are you making so much noise? Don't you know I'm sleeping?"

The sound was like a thunder, echoing in the silent corridor, making everyone's eardrums buzz, and even the lights in the corridor seemed to tremble.

Everyone was shocked by the roar, and Mao Lilan subconsciously took half a step back, her face full of fear.

Although Mao Lilan had previously guessed that Aunt Horikoshi Yumi must have a very bad temper when she wakes up, after all, she could make Nakamichi Kazushi, Ayashiro Yukio and others so afraid of her, so it was obvious that her temper when she woke up would not be too ordinary.

But she never expected that the other party's mood when waking up would be so terrible and terrifying, like an awakened prehistoric beast, with a terrifying deterrent power that made people shudder.

An imperceptible look of relief flashed across Nakamichi Kazushi's face. His tense shoulders visibly relaxed, and the corners of his mouth even raised a fleeting arc, as if this roar was exactly what he wanted.

"See, what did I say?"

He spread his hands, his tone was strangely relaxed, and the tension that had been hanging in the air disappeared instantly. "Yumi's morning grumpiness is no joke, and now we are really asking for trouble."

Fortunately, he was smart and cleverly put the voice of Yumi Horikoshi that he had secretly recorded before into the room in advance. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to barely end this tricky matter today. Perhaps his secrets that were hidden deep in his heart would be ruthlessly revealed and exposed to everyone, putting him in an irretrievable situation.

Ayashiro Noriko sighed helplessly, with a look of embarrassment on her face, "Sure enough, I knew it would be like this, I think we should not disturb her..."

Her old classmate's grumpiness when waking up was getting worse and worse. Even with the presence of her two juniors, Mao Lilan and Bai Ye, she did not restrain herself at all. For a moment, she didn't know what to say to her old classmate.

"Yumi's temper is really a headache!"

Ayashiro Yukio frowned, looking somewhat helpless: "Forget it, let's just go!"

As he spoke, he turned around and pretended to leave, his back revealing a sense of helplessness and disappointment. However, Bai Ye was not frightened by Horikoshi Yumi's roar. He stared at Nakamichi Kazushi with a sharp gaze, as if his eyes could penetrate his disguise and see through his inner secrets.

Nakamichi Hezhi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Bai Ye. He subconsciously moved his feet slightly, trying to avoid the sharp gaze, but found that he had nowhere to hide.

Suddenly, a trace of panic appeared on his face, and his eyes flickered, as if he was hiding some unspeakable secret.

"Mr. Nakamichi, you seem to be particularly concerned about Miss Yumi's mood when she wakes up." Bai Ye's voice was calm and firm, with a hint of inquiry, "Are you really just worried that she will be angry, and there is no other reason?"

Nakamichi Kazushi's face turned pale instantly. He waved his hands hastily and said, "No, no, no, I just don't want to put everyone in an awkward situation. After all, everyone knows Yumi's temper. If she really gets angry, the situation will be difficult to clean up."

However, they didn't know if it was an illusion, but they always felt that there was a hint of guilt in Zhongdao Hezhi's voice, and his eyes deliberately avoided Bai Ye's gaze, not daring to look him in the face, as if that gaze was a scorching light that would burn his lies.

"is it?"

Bai Ye smiled slightly, his tone was somewhat teasing, but also contained a deep meaning, "Then why did you show a hint of relaxation in your eyes when Miss Yumei didn't respond? Could it be that you don't actually want her to wake up?"

Hearing this, Ayashiro Yukio touched his chin thoughtfully and said, "I also find it a little strange when Bai Ye said that. Kazushi, your behavior today is indeed not right. Normally, you are not the kind of person who is so afraid of making Yumi angry."

As Ayashiro Yukio spoke, he stared closely at Nakamichi Kazushi, trying to find a clue from his expression.

Everyone knew that his old classmate's morning grumpiness was indeed not to be underestimated.

However, after all, they had been classmates for many years and had a long-standing friendship. Logically speaking, even if he really woke up Yumi Horikoshi, Nakamichi Kazushi would not be too scared.

But the reality is that Nakamichi Kazushi is determined and is unwilling to call Horikoshi Yumi, nor does he want anyone to get close to Horikoshi Yumi's room. This is weird no matter how you look at it.

Ayashiro Noriko bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes filled with worry and confusion, and she slowly said, "Yes, Kazushi, we have known each other for so many years, is there anything that cannot be said directly? You are being secretive and it makes us even more worried."

She took a step forward, tilted her head slightly, her face full of concern, trying to let Nakamichi and Zhi feel her sincerity, "If you really have any difficulties, tell me, we can find a way to solve it together, it's better than you carrying it alone."

Noticing everyone's gaze, Nakamichi Hezhi's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he swallowed hard. He gritted his teeth, looked at Bai Ye, and his voice trembled a little: "What nonsense are you talking about! I just don't want everyone to be unhappy because of this matter, that's all!"

"Oh?"

Bai Ye sneered, his eyes like an extremely sharp blade, sweeping across Nakamichi Kazushi's face, as if his eyes could easily cut through his carefully constructed disguise, exposing the secrets and panic hidden in his heart without reservation in broad daylight, "Then why were you so nervous at the door of Miss Yumi's room, but seemed so relaxed after she got angry? What are you afraid of?"

Nakamichi Hezhi was speechless by Bai Ye's words. Fine beads of sweat began to seep out of his forehead, and his eyes were full of panic and anxiety. He tried to refute, but no sound came out of his throat.

"Mr. Nakamichi, if you are hiding something, it's not too late to tell me now."

Looking coldly at Zhongdao Hezhi with a complicated expression, Bai Ye's voice was low and powerful, with an irresistible majesty, "Otherwise, when the truth comes out, you will regret it."

Nakamichi Hezhi's face became uglier and uglier. He bit his lips tightly and his body was trembling slightly, as if he was making a final struggle. Finally, under Bai Ye's eyes that seemed to see through everything, he seemed to have his spine pulled out. He collapsed instantly, holding his head with both hands, and screamed in pain: "Okay, I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

Everyone was stunned by Nakamichi Kazushi's sudden outburst and subconsciously gathered around him. Ayashiro Yukio and Ayashiro Noriko looked at each other in shock, their eyes full of disbelief and deep confusion, as if they could not imagine what shocking secrets they would hear next.

"Actually...actually, the reason why I don't want to see Yumi..."

Nakamichi Kazushi's voice was so low that it was almost as soft as the buzzing of a mosquito. If it weren't for the silence in the corridor, you could hear a pin drop. He slowly raised his head, his eyes full of guilt and fear, "That's because I found that she...she seemed to still have feelings for me and wanted to get back together with me, but you also know that she was the one who resolutely proposed the breakup, and now I'm about to get married."

His voice was noticeably trembling, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from a torn chest, carrying the temperature of blood and tears, burning himself and piercing the hearts of everyone present.

"If my fiancée knew that I was still entangled with my ex-girlfriend before marriage, she would most likely cancel the engagement and use the power of her family to ruin my reputation and make me lose my foothold in this circle."

Nakamichi and Zhi became more and more excited as they spoke, and their emotions were like a flood that broke through a dam, completely out of control. There was even a hint of tears in his voice, which was full of fear for the future, regret for himself, and a sense of powerlessness about the current situation. "That's why I have been trying every possible way to stop you, for fear that you would notice her thoughts and make things out of control."

His shoulders shrugged violently, his hands grabbed his hair, his knuckles turned white from the force, and he was completely trapped in the quagmire of deep pain and regret, unable to extricate himself. It looked as if he would be swallowed up by this endless emotion in the next second.

When everyone heard this, they were stunned as if they were under a spell. No one had expected that behind this seemingly ordinary dispute, there was such a complicated secret.

This sudden truth, like a bombshell, plunged everyone into deep shock and silence. The air seemed to freeze at this moment, and the pressure was so suffocating.

After a while, Ayashiro Noriko was the first to recover from her shock. She sighed softly, and her sigh was full of helplessness and understanding towards Nakamichi Kazushi. She said softly, "But even if this is the case, you shouldn't just keep hiding it. We are all old classmates for many years. If we work together to find a solution, maybe we can help you solve the problem properly."

Ayashiro Yukio also nodded in agreement: "Yes, look at you now, your concealment and hiding not only failed to solve the problem, but made things even more complicated and difficult."

He frowned, his face full of anxiety and concern. There was both blame and deep worry in his eyes when he looked at Nakamichi Hezhi, as if he felt sorry for the confusion of this old classmate.

Nakamichi Kazushi raised his head, his eyes full of pain and helplessness, his voice hoarse like the dry sound of an old bellows: "I don't want to do this either, but you also know that Yumi has a temper and is used to doing whatever she wants. If I could convince her, I would have found a way to solve it long ago, why would it drag on until now..."
