Manga Born to Be King

　　"I'm already going home."

　　Mayuki struggled to squeeze a smile out of her mouth.

　　"...You really want to run away. Just like my mother."

　　"your mother……?"

　　"Don't leave your child and run away!"

　　the girl shouted.It sounded like she was talking to her mother.

　　——Is this girl also living in separate places with her mother?

　　Mayuki looked at the girl who glared at her with eyes mixed with anger and sadness.

　　Two mobile phones are placed on the podium.One is from Nangong Xiao, and the other is from Xin Naizhi.The two phones were respectively called to Xin Naizhi's parents. Because they were switched to speakerphone mode, they could directly hear Xin Naizhi's speech.

　　Nangong Xiao and others returned to the side of the stage and continued to pay attention to Xin Naizhi.Only Rinka remained on the stage, helping to stabilize the swaying Shinnoe.

　　『Rising...after entering junior high school...I...everyday...』

　　But her performance never returned to the previous level.The voice was choppy and panting, and it seemed to be very painful.

　　Although the guests in the auditorium patiently perked up their ears to listen, they were still dazed and confused.After all, the speech that was not emotionally appealing could not attract attention, and sighs and whispers began to be heard from the table one after another.

　　"Ugh..."

　　Shinnaeko lowered her face on the podium as if she had given up and continued, and a choked sob came from the depths of her throat.Ironically, that voice was amplified through the microphone and echoed clearly in the hall.

　　"Sister Hezhen..."

　　Rinxiang put her hand on Shinnoe's trembling back, and then she shook her head at the student who was the operation committee member, as if to indicate that Shinnoe could no longer speak.

　　Continuing to force her to speak will only hurt her.Rinka put her head in front of the microphone on the podium.

　　"I'm sorry, guests.Tsuru Shinanoe-san suddenly felt unwell, so..."

　　At this moment, an unfamiliar voice sounded in the hall.

　　"Shinnoe... did you hear that? 』

　 　It was the voice of a woman who sounded gentle and graceful.

　　"I'm Mayuki.Do you remember?I am your birth mother.The mother who brought you into this world. 』

　　Nangong Xiao looked up at the broadcast room.You can see Mayuki standing in front of the microphone, Aina on the side seems to be completely clueless, as for the person standing directly behind Mayuki... it's Ya.

　　Turning her gaze back to the stage, she found that Xin Naie was looking up at the broadcast room in astonishment.

　　"No matter how much I apologize, I can't express my apology for not being able to keep you by my side.But seeing Xin Naizhi you have grown so well, I am really moved and very happy.There was nothing wrong with the decision to give birth to you in the first place.Although I was deeply distressed, tortured, and regretted for it, but seeing you today as slim and graceful, I think everything is worth it. 』

　　As she spoke, Mayuki's voice was faintly choked, and her speech became intermittent.

　　"Heart is a branch.Don't be dragged down by my disqualified mother, and live an upright life from now on.Please convey your thoughts to the Tsuru-ma couple who raised you. 』

　　Hearing these words in Nangong Xiao's ears, she felt as if she was repenting.No, it can't be wrong.Mayuki is indeed repenting to Shinnoe.

　　"What do you mean by this..."

　　In the next instant, Xin Nae's voice resounded in the hall.

　　"You only come to see me now, do you want to take everything from me?You are not my mother!My parents are my parents now! 』

　　"I won't take anything from you.I just want to see your face, full of energy..."

　　"You are lying!Obviously never saw me in the past!How dare you call yourself my mother! 』

　　The excited clamor suddenly silenced the hall.The speech that the guests expected to hear was about the love between parents and children, and it was a heartwarming story of unrelated parents and daughters living together.

　　However, what appeared in front of everyone was a mother who grieved and repented, and a farce performed by a daughter who scolded such a mother... Both mother and daughter fell silent.

　　Xin Naizhi put her hands on the podium and lowered her head.A low sobbing voice could be heard clearly by everyone through the microphone.Rinka hugged her shoulders as if to soothe Shinnoe's emotions.

　　He looked up at the broadcast room, and Mayuki in front of the microphone was stunned and downcast, and the hall was filled with dignified silence. .

Chapter 849

　　Shinnoe, who ran out of the ceremony venue as if fleeing, returned to the classroom and sat tucked in her seat.She buried her face in her knees, fighting back the pain in her heart.

　　There was no one in the classroom except Nangong Xiao and Xin Naizhi.Rinxiang was kind and helped to borrow the key from the staff room.

　　He sat beside her and just accompanied her silently.

　　"I'm sorry... It's not convenient for us to have any more celebration parties after doing this..."

　　Xin Naizhi raised his head, showing a crying and laughing expression.

　　"Your parents must have felt your heart. Because didn't you clearly say that the parents who are here are more important than Ms. Mayuki?"

　　"But the speech turned into such a humiliating farce... I screwed up a good ceremony..."

　　Shinobu snorted.

　　"I don't have any hatred for Ms. Mayuki. I just don't know where she is and if she's doing well... But she suddenly appeared today. I thought she was here to take me back and wanted to take me back. Take it from Daddy and Mommy...I'm afraid when I think about whether she's going to ruin my current life..."

　　Xin Naizhi buried her face between her knees again, and Nangong Xiao silently put her hand on her back.

　　"You don't have to be afraid. Ms. Mayuki has promised she won't do such a thing."

　　The other hand grabbed Xin Naezhi's hand, and the slender fingertips were a little cold.

　　"I... am very happy now..."

　　Xin Naizhi shook his hand gently.

　　Masa and Mayuki sat side by side on a bench in the corner of the memorial courtyard.Mayuki's whole body was depressed, and her shoulders slumped.

　　"My appearance is just to annoy Xin Naizhi..."

　　She was scolded by her own daughter, which seemed to have hit her hard.

　　"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made unreasonable demands just because I wanted to cheer up for Shinnoe... But I really can't sit back and watch as Shinnae can't speak..."

　　"No. I was the one who called Ms. Mayuki in the first place."

　　Ya comforted a little embarrassedly.

　　"But I can understand Tsuru-san's reaction. If my mother ran back without warning, I would probably yell and scold like her..."

　　Mayuki looked up at Ya.

　　"Kannagi-san, why did your mother leave?"

　　"She divorced my father when I was young. My mother has the idea of ​​'not wanting to be tied down by children'. Should I say that she loves freedom and unfettered? Anyway, she also cares about me. , but she seems to cherish her own life the most."

　　"Really... the exact opposite of me. I think parents are meant to be with their little ones."

　　Mayuki sighed sadly as she spoke.

　　"But I couldn't support Xin Naizhi with my own hands. Because I'm weak, it takes a lot of energy just to live on my own. I'm full of great truths, but I can't do anything. I'm not worthy of being a human being..." …”

　　In Ya's eyes, Mayuki looked very small.Sad, useless, and weak.I dare not face the mother of my biological daughter head-on.

　　"But...Ms. Mayuki, you didn't run away in the end. When I caught up with you, you were willing to stop."

　　"That's because you're chasing you so hard, Nagi-san, I think I can't escape even if I want to."

　　"If you had traveled so far back then, maybe I would have been completely disappointed in so-called parenting."

　　Like a child who has been praised, Mayuki has a hint of joy on her face.Just as the two smiled at each other, a figure approached them.

　　"Ms. Sugamiya, so you are here."

　　Looking up at the man's face, Ya gasped in fright.

　　"It's going to bother me with your arrogance. Didn't we make a pact to keep a low profile?"

　　"No, I'm sorry."

　　Mayuki got up from the chair while apologizing, waved goodbye to Ya, and left with Seti.Mayuki, under the leadership of Seri, entered a cafe near Shenryu Academy.After taking the most secret seat in the store, Seti ordered two cups of lemon tea from the waitress.

　　"How do you feel when you see Miss Shinnae, whom you haven't seen in ten years?"

　　"I have no regrets seeing her grow and thrive so well."

　　"Ms. Shinnoe is very like Ms. Saragiya. She is a very beautiful and moving girl. If you are happy, it is not in vain for me to invite you to visit today."

　　Seti leaned over the table and put her face close to Mayuki.

　　"Forgive me for asking straight to the point. Who is the father of Miss Shinnoe?"

　　Mayuki tightened her body and looked at Seti with a wary look.

　　"What do you want to do with this question?"

　　"As I said before, based on the legacy of the former chairman of Nangong, we are searching for unaccounted for relatives."

　　"Do you still insist that Xin Naizhi's father is Mr. Qingyun?"

　　"What do you say?"

　　Seti's eyes were like an eagle staring at its prey, and she fixed her eyes on Mayuki.The waitress brought drinks, and the two stopped talking for a while.

　　After the waitress left, Mayuki spoke in a tone that gave up her resistance.

　　"Xin Naizhi's father is just a young man I met on the road and fell in love briefly. Mr. Qingyun knew that I was very sad and sad when my father opposed giving birth to a child, and he gave me a helping hand because he couldn't bear it."

　　"Where's that young man now? What's his name?"

　　"The man quickly abandoned me. I don't want to recall his name—it's an embarrassing memory that I haven't told anyone in the past. Are you satisfied with my explanation?"

　　"Oh... The eldest daughter of a prominent family is pregnant with the child of the person she fell in love with for a short time. And she doesn't know what the other party will do after that, and she doesn't want to say his name - this is too coincidental."

　　"You mean I'm lying?"

　　"No, how dare I. I'm relieved that I can find out the true truth."

　　Seti opened the bag and took out the thick and bulging envelope.After placing the envelope on the table, she pushed it in front of Mayuki with both hands.From the seal, you can vaguely see that there are banknotes inside.

　　"...Is this a seal fee?"

　　"No, this is a little compensation for my misunderstanding of Ms. Mayuki. According to the report submitted by her subordinates, there is no evidence around Ms. Mayuki that can point to the identity of the father. If Mr. Qingyun is really the biological father of Miss Shinnae, he should stay there. A letter or two or a photo."

　　Mayuki breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that the envelopes and photos in the house have not been found.But Seti's tone made her feel a little uneasy... Suddenly, she remembered seeing a man in a black suit standing in front of the apartment and looking up at the room before going out.
