Yang smiled and handed the key to Li Xuan, saying...

"There are a lot of people here, Miss." Li Xuan looked at Yang Nai with a puzzled expression, took the key, and reminded her.

Yang Nai fanned himself with a fan and sighed, "I feel like you rarely go shopping with girls. The temperature is 32 degrees today. Just think, it's a full two kilometers from here to the entrance of the blocked street, and then another two kilometers inside the blocked street. I don't want to walk four kilometers to the beach to watch the fireworks."

Li Xuan agreed, since he was still wearing wooden clogs and his bathrobe skirt was completely covered. He nodded and said, "I understand. Where did you park your car?"

"Over there, come on, let's go to the car and enjoy the air conditioning."

Yang led the way and said to Li Xuan.

"Wait a minute, Miss." Li Xuan looked around and asked in confusion, "Don't you have a secretary or anything with you? Aren't you going to wait for the others?"

"Secretary? I'm just a college student, where would I get a secretary?"

Yang Nai paused for a moment, turned her head slightly to look at him, and asked.

"..."

Li Xuan was stunned, staring at Yang Nai.

So...

"That's right."

Yukino Yukinoshita stood on the bustling and crowded highway, with countless people passing by her. The beautiful woman had deep eyes and a faint smile on her lips as she said softly, "From the very beginning, the journey there was just you and me."

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·

After the two got into the Crown car, Li Xuan could still smell that the new car smell hadn't completely dissipated inside the car.

Less than three weeks have passed since the last incident where Yang's vehicle was damaged.

Wow~~~~~

Yang Nai sat in the passenger seat, enjoying the powerful air conditioning, and sighed with relief.

Li Xuan drove carefully and slowly through the residential streets filled with pedestrians.

Inside, the air conditioning was blowing, while outside, the young men and women endured the sweltering heat of the ground. Very few people dared to park their cars in the parking lots around the fireworks festival, but Yang Nai didn't even flinch.

As the vehicle slowly moved forward and the sky gradually darkened, Yang Nai looked out the window at the men and women of similar age passing by one after another. She rested her smooth cheek on her hand, gazing at the street scene, and said, "Don't you think we're living too extravagantly here?"

"Just like those evil capitalists?"

Li Xuan was focused on driving and casually asked a question.

Yukino Yukinoshita felt that the atmosphere really suited this statement. After a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "It is indeed very ironic."

“That’s right, a capitalist…” Yang Nai’s eyes silently observed every figure on the street as he said, “I was born to be a heartless, cold-blooded capitalist…”

Li Xuan was taken aback. He glanced briefly at the girl's figure with her back to him and asked, "Why are you suddenly saying all this?"

Yang Nai smiled but remained silent.

After a long while, she sat up straight and replied in a cheerful tone, "It's nothing."

"Oh, right."

Yang Nai glanced at Li Xuan, seemingly lost in thought, and asked, "How do you like the sunglasses I gave you?"

"I like it," Li Xuan replied expressionlessly.

Yang Nai was very shrewd; she figured it was mostly just polite talk, and teased, "Really? You're so good with words..."

"The quality feels great, the size is just right, and the style is exactly the same. Of course I like it. Thank you for this gift."

Li Xuan smiled and interrupted Yang Nai slightly, adding, "..."

"..."

Yang Nai watched Li Xuan's response after accepting the gift, remained silent for a moment, and finally, a smile appeared on her handsome face.

"That's good."

This is the first time I've received such a direct response when giving someone a gift.

A straightforward response will make the gift giver feel simply satisfied and happy.

You either like it or you don't.

Therefore, those who give gifts often just want something "genuine".

A scheming politician's heir, or a shadowy yakuza boss—which is truly darker...?

The inner world of a girl is always a mystery, especially that of a politician's daughter.

She gave him the real thing and the fake thing; could he tell the difference?

As the sky gradually cooled, Yang Nai pondered these conflicting thoughts...

The reality remains unfamiliar, yet the two people in the train carriage are beginning to get to know each other.

After the vehicle arrived at the parking lot near the cordoned-off area, it was already getting dark.

Along the way, Yang bought snacks and kept attracting Li Xuan to look at the street scenery together.

Soon, the two of them saw Tokyo Bay in the distance amidst the crowded streets.

On the bustling seaside promenade, many young men and women had already occupied the railings, facing the endless sea, ready to watch the fireworks launched from the small island across the sea, but this made the passageway very congested.

With Li Xuan leading the way, it became much easier to walk.

“In the past, it was always difficult to move an inch when I got here, but this time it seems that someone helped me and it became much easier.”

Yukinoshita, who was grabbing Li Xuan's clothes from behind, said.

"Because I look fierce..." Li Xuan thought to himself, knowing his own limitations. However, no matter how much people avoided each other in the passageway, it was still quite congested. Li Xuan couldn't help but turn around and look at Yang Nai, only to see that the young lady Yang Nai, who was surrounded by the crowd, could only shrink to a distance of less than a fist behind him.

too close.

However, when Yang Nai noticed Li Xuan turn his head, he, who was a head shorter than Li Xuan, raised his head, revealed his eyes, and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

This sight made Li Xuan too embarrassed to look at Yang Nai anymore.

Yang Nai's voice came from behind: "You're taller, so I can't see ahead. Could you help me find the location of the observation deck? Those business couples should be gathering there."

Yang Nai seemed completely unconcerned, and spoke in a generous, loud, and pleasant tone.

Li Xuan helped her look around.

Soon enough, he did see a viewing platform two hundred meters from the sea.

Just as Li Xuan was about to speak to Yang Nai, he inadvertently spotted a familiar figure in the crowd opposite him.

In that instant, he seemed to catch a glimpse of the Second Miss Yukino, walking past with a few other people...

Chapter 035 The Sisters at the Fireworks Festival

Just as Li Xuan was about to see what was going on, a loud "bong" sound came from the night sky by the sea, causing a commotion among the crowd.

Everyone looked towards the seaside, watching the dazzling fireworks blooming in the sky.

"..."

Li Xuan ultimately couldn't make out the figures on the other side of the road.

He turned his head to look at the fireworks in the sky above the sea, one after another bursting into bloom, illuminating his purple sunglasses.

A cool sea breeze caressed the dense crowds of spectators on the street, and finally, the one-hour fireworks display officially began.

"What's wrong? Who were you looking for? Did you see a beauty?"

Yang Nai, who was standing to the side, had just noticed that Li Xuan seemed to be looking at others. Her view was blocked by other tourists, so she gave Li Xuan a meaningful look and asked.

Yang Nai peeked out, turned her head and smiled as she observed his face, teasingly saying, "No, that's very impolite to the girl next to you."

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment. He knew that Yang Nai was going to tease him again. He was about to tell her that he might have seen Yukino, and said, "I think I just saw her..." But just as he was about to say what happened, someone interrupted their conversation.

"This isn't the young lady of the Yukino family, Haruno. Oh, little Haruno, it's been years, you've grown so much."

On the beach walkway, a middle-aged man with a mustache saw Yang Nai in the crowd and greeted her warmly.

Yang Nai and Li Xuan were slightly taken aback and looked over together.

"Uncle Yamazaki!"

Yang Nai immediately smiled with delight and waved to him.

In the stillness of the dark sky and the coolness of the sea breeze, Haruno, dressed in a yukata, turned her head. The charming woman smiled and quietly reminded her, "Cheer up. Money and extravagant social interactions are only just beginning."

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·

Japanese businesspeople seem to have a penchant for imitating European styles, with various beards and slicked-back, gel-coated hairstyles. Middle-aged men are polite, while women wear kimonos. It should be said that the upper echelons of Japanese society dress quite meticulously.

Li Xuan began to appear out of place in this setting.

Despite wearing formal attire, she clearly lacked a sense of refinement and looked more like a staff member of the Yukinoshita family.

For some reason, Li Xuan felt uneasy even though he was in the best viewing area of ​​the beach.

However, Yang Nai, who was not far from him, was completely different. She was quiet and polite, with a charming smile. She chatted happily with a group of middle-aged women, and seemed to be able to talk about anything. Everyone noticed her and appreciated her.

Soon, the young lady in the bathrobe suddenly looked at him again in the crowd.

Those bright, clear eyes seemed to never leave his side.

"Uncle Yamazaki, Uncle Domoto, let me introduce you. This is my friend, Gen Nitta."

Yang Nai returned to Li Xuan's side with a sweet smile and introduced them.

Li Xuan was slightly taken aback. Yang Nai had suddenly introduced him to them, which was somewhat unexpected. However, he was a man who had experienced many ups and downs, so he politely said, "Good evening, I am Xintian. Please take care of me."

A group of seemingly kind-looking middle-aged businessmen then realized that he was actually a friend of the young lady of the Yukinoshita family, and they all changed their attitude, saying, "So you are Haruno's friend. It's nice to meet you."

One of the wealthy businessmen from Chiba asked, "You look about the same age as Haruno. Where did you go to university? Was it Chiba University, or some university in Tokyo?"

Li Xuan's expression changed slightly, but he remained silent, unsure how to answer the question for the moment.

It's obvious that the universities the other party is referring to are all prestigious institutions, and his academic background is simply not worth mentioning.

Yang Nai calmly and naturally answered for Li Xuan: "He is currently studying in England and has not yet decided which university to apply to."

In the process of studying and choosing schools in the UK, I did not attend any university, but it seemed as if I could get into Oxford or Cambridge. There was no way to verify this, so there was no lie involved.

The group of middle-aged businessmen nodded in agreement, praising the statement.
