A year ago, on that street, this young man made his confession.

She didn't get to see his good looks for long. After getting into trouble, he didn't even dare to see her and even planned to climb over the wall to leave.

The mission of the Service Club is to lend a helping hand to those in need, and that night, she finally decided to help the man who had confessed his love.

From the window, you can see him building under the scorching sun, and during his leisure time, you can witness him quietly reading.

Day after day, no communication is needed.

Yukino felt that he was someone who didn't need to rely on others.

What amazed her most was how freely and unrestrained he could laugh every time.

I helped him find a job, and upon closer reflection, it seemed to reflect a kind of arrogance on my part.

She observed him from above, and gradually, when she came to her senses, he had become a towering tree, and she was now sheltered and protected by him.

After seeing the message, she finally came over.

In a daze, long-ago memories flooded Yukino's mind.

However, to this day, she still remembers that chase at the fireworks festival, but in the end, she never confirmed it.

"Phew, you should stop this a bit. Why do you always seem to be entangled with girls? Nitta-kun, I always feel like you have some kind of incredible talent."

Yukino glanced at him with a slight look of disdain and commented.

Li Xuan's face darkened. Was it his imagination? She seemed to be accusing him of having the talent to be kept by a sugar daddy.

But how did Yukino know that the young lady from the house was her boss's daughter? How exactly did Isshiki describe her to her?

Just then, Li Xuan heard a familiar voice: "Senior—!!"

Li Xuan turned his head and saw a girl with slightly tousled hair and light, flowing clothes making a dazzling entrance.

"And Yukinoshita-senpai, did you finally succeed?"

Iroha Isshiki glanced at Yukino with a smile and asked.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at the mastermind behind it all with a somewhat helpless expression.

Iroha Isshiki had been watching for a longer time, but this time she didn't have a suitable opportunity to make a move.

The one who has a greater chance of bringing her senior out of the blind date, and whose aura is more suitable for direct confrontation, is Yukinoshita-senpai.

"Isshiki, you'd better explain this to me later."

Li Xuan's face hardened, and he muttered under his breath.

"Um...I will."

Iroha Isshiki understood the awkward situation Li Xuan was in, her shoulders felt a little heavy, and she forced a smile as she agreed.

"However, I am also very unhappy, senior. You really made me pay a heavy price this time in order to help you."

Before Li Xuan, Iroha's expression suddenly darkened, and she began to speak.

Li Xuan was momentarily caught off guard by Iroha's sudden change of expression.

Iroha Isshiki glanced at Li Xuan again, her eyes filled with annoyance. Finally, she sighed and said, "Yukinoshita-senpai is amazing. She solved the problem in one go. She's bolder than me."

"Isshiki-kun, whose credit do you think this is?"

Yukino Yukinoshita gave a gloomy yet polite smile and asked.

"No... Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Yukinoshita-senpai."

Faced with Yukinoshita's aura, Isshiki Hatake smiled ingratiatingly and said something.

Li Xuan asked in a low, puzzled voice, "Then why can't you take me out like Yukino did?"

Isshiki Iroha paused for a moment, then asked, "Senior, imagine if it were me, could I bring you out?"

Li Xuan thought about it carefully, and the only thing that came to mind was for Isshiki to pretend to be his girlfriend, or to fake food poisoning—a junior-specific skill to cover for him. The result would be incredibly awkward and have serious consequences. It seemed that Isshiki couldn't possibly achieve the same effect as Yukinoshita.

Li Xuan looked at Yi Se with a strange expression. Yi Se put his hands on his hips, snorted as if he had a headache, and said, "Right, right? It's really tiring to think of a solution for a senior. Anyway, as long as the senior's problem can be solved, that's fine."

Yukino closed her eyes, silently agreeing to something.

Soon after resolving the crisis, Isshiki's family kept urging her to call, so she had no choice but to go home first.

After things came to a close, Li Xuan prepared to return home and also escorted the Second Miss to the station.

“Miss Yukino, you... seem to have lied before.”

Li Xuan glanced at Yukino and brought up the incident involving Yukino at the restaurant.

"Oh?"

Yukino Yukinoshita smiled slightly, glanced at Li Xuan, and asked, "Is that how you define me too?"

Li Xuan said apologetically, "No, I know you're human too, and every human will lie. I didn't presume to think of you as perfect. But... I still owe you a favor for going to such lengths for me this time."

"..."

Yukino paused for a moment, then asked, "Are you still going to apologize?"

Li Xuan fell silent.

He finally looked at Yukino and said, "In fact, I also bear the burden of the [Fake]."

"??"

Puzzled, Yukino finally couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What's wrong? You suddenly mentioned that word too. Are you copying me?"

However, Li Xuan always had something he couldn't say to the Second Miss.

It turns out that the longer people stay in touch, the harder it is to let go of those feelings.

With a loud boom, a faint rumble of thunder echoed across the sky.

These days, there have been constant typhoons, and it always feels like a storm is brewing.

At that moment, a luxury car pulled up to the side of the road.

Li Xuan and Yukino looked over curiously, and Yukino's face immediately turned pale.

The car window slowly rolled down, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman in the back seat.

At first glance, Li Xuan seemed to see the striking resemblance between Yukino and Haruno.

Even more surprisingly, on the other side of the back row, Yang Nai's side profile, looking through the window, was so clearly visible.

Li Xuan was completely stunned by this scene.

Yukino's expression also seemed quite unpleasant.

"Mother......"

Yukino said nervously to the middle-aged woman.

"..."

The mother's gaze finally settled on Li Xuan.

"Nice to meet you, Nitta-kun."

The mother Li Xuan was facing revealed a mysterious smile, and for the first time spoke to the yakuza leader who had close ties to the Yukinoshita family.

Chapter 105 The Strife Between Sisters (4.5k)

The vehicle was temporarily parked on the side of the road. Under the vast, dark blue sky, on the empty sidewalk, a woman in her forties wearing a kimono got out of the car. She was a noble and elegant woman with a kind face and a generous demeanor. She came to Li Xuan and Yukino.

Li Xuan was essentially still Chinese.

In fact, he originally thought he was familiar with some of the unique cultural atmosphere of this neighboring country.

But ironically, it was only when he first encountered the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese clan that he understood why Japan primarily uses mournful music.

When the second young lady met her mother, Yukino, dressed in black, showed no joy, and her mother also seemed to have no emotional fluctuations.

Is this the kind of scene that should occur between family members?

Yukino instinctively stood in front of Li Xuan, protecting him.

Yukino Yukinoshita instinctively stood in front of Li Xuan, shielding him behind her.

"?"

Li Xuan was slightly taken aback and glanced at Yukino.

"Mother, what are you doing here?"

Yukino looked pale and asked her mother.

"What day is it today? Have you forgotten, Yukino?"

The mother asked in a calm tone.

Yukino replied, "Of course I remember, but I had some things to do, so I went a little later."

"That won't do, Yukino."

Suddenly, her mother refuted Yukino's excuse with a single sentence.

Yukino fell silent, her expression turning even worse.

However, Yukino protected Li Xuan with her body and did not back down in the slightest.

"Nitta-kun, I've heard of you before, and I'm so glad to finally meet you."

Yukinoshita's mother looked up at Li Xuan, then suddenly changed the subject, greeting him with a smile.

Li Xuan sensed that this wasn't the type of person he was good at dealing with, so he nodded in greeting, somewhat bewildered, and said, "Hello, Auntie."

But Yukino, feeling confused, asked, "Mother, how do you know Nitta?"

"..."

These words were undoubtedly a heavy burden on Li Xuan's heart.

It made his heart race.

Yang Nai reacted calmly, but looked at Li Xuan with a hint of worry in her eyes.
