My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

What could Hui have done that afternoon that made her leave so hastily without waiting for him? And what about at night... He looked through the rain at Hui's house next door; it was pitch black.

He had a vague feeling that something had happened.

Click!

After the door opened.

Kouta saw that Kei's father, Wazumi Soto, was staring at him with a dark expression.

"Uncle! Good morning!"

"What are you doing here?" Cao Deng said coldly. If he weren't so well-mannered, he would have already started hitting him. Instead, he just talked without lifting a finger.

"I'm here to see Hui."

"Go away, my daughter will never see you again! And don't come looking for my daughter again."

"Huh?" Kouta was taken aback. He had no idea why his usually kind and gentle Uncle Agatsuma Kusaburo would have such a big problem with him.

Furthermore, what does it mean to say "Don't come looking for my daughter anymore"?

"Um... Uncle, is there some misunderstanding between us?" Kouta asked.

"Misunderstanding?! Ha! You have the nerve to call it a misunderstanding!"

Cao Deng was furious. He couldn't help but think of the suffering his daughter had endured the night before. Looking at this guy's nonchalant attitude, he thought, "A misunderstanding? How dare he claim it's a misunderstanding!"

Immediately, Cao Deng was enraged.

He slapped Kouta directly.

Snapped!

Kouta felt a ringing in his ears, and his entire left cheek was slapped to one side, visibly red and swollen.

He could have dodged, but he didn't, nor did he use any force to defend himself, because he instinctively sensed something.

Kusaburo showed absolutely no mercy in this slap. Moreover, he was a graduate of the police academy, strong and robust. A full-force slap in a fit of rage would be enough to leave a normal adult's face a bloody mess and knock out a few teeth...

It's only because Kouta has a strong physique that only his left cheek became red and swollen.

"Uncle, has something happened to Hui?"

Despite the constant burning pain on his left cheek, Kouta paid no attention to it and instead asked about Kei's condition with concern.

Kouta's appearance made Soto look at him with new respect.

You know, young people nowadays are generally effeminate, they never lift a finger, they'll cry at the slightest bump or scrape, they'll grit their teeth and endure a blood test at the hospital, they'll find slaughtering a chicken cruel during the New Year, and they won't even dare to watch a pig being slaughtered... They're more delicate than real women, and they have absolutely no manly courage or backbone.

Let alone being slapped, even a slight threat or intimidation would send them into tears, too scared to move.

Even after being slapped, Kouta remained calm and spoke clearly, showing that although his character wasn't great, he at least had backbone and was a real man!

'But don't think that will make me forgive what you did to my daughter!'

'I will never hand my daughter over to you!'

Caodeng continued, "My daughter's affairs are none of your business. Now please leave. This house does not welcome you!"

"No, Uncle, I won't leave until I see Hui today."

Kouta insisted that although he was now half a head shorter than Soto, their auras were no less impressive.

"If you don't leave, believe me, I'll get my hands on you!"

"Then do it. Unless I die completely, I will see Hui even if I still have a breath left!" Gengtai said.

After saying that, Kouta looked like a shameless rogue who would let anyone hit him.

"You~"

Caodeng naturally couldn't continue to attack; that slap was an act of rage that had clouded his judgment.

After calming down, he also felt deep regret.

Because in a sense... their daughter is still in the other party's hands.

The two were locked in a stalemate, no more than fifty centimeters apart, staring at each other, neither willing to give in.

Squeak!

During the standoff between the two, a taxi stopped on the street outside the courtyard gate.

The two looked and saw that it was Misa who had brought Hui back.

The doctor originally suggested that Hui stay in the hospital for a few more days, but Hui insisted on going home. She knew her own body well and that staying in the hospital wouldn't help. Moreover, the faint smell of disinfectant that permeated the hospital made her feel nauseous all the time, and the frequency of her morning sickness increased significantly.

Hui slowly got out of the car with Misa's help.

Her unadorned face could not conceal her stunning beauty, yet even this exquisite appearance could not mask the weakness that permeated her features.

Her jet-black hair reached her waist, simply tied with a headband to prevent it from flying around, which only made her face look even paler than paper. Her usually rosy lips were also completely bloodless.

At this moment, Hui changed into a long-sleeved chiffon floral dress that Misa had brought the night before. The long dress was light and airy, and it made her look slimmer. Wearing it on the slender Hui, she looked like a willow swaying in the wind, just like a pear tree outside the window with heavy blossoms that were overwhelmed by the wind and rain. She was beautiful yet fragile, pale and powerless.

"Hui, what's wrong?"

Kouta, standing at the door of the house in the courtyard, saw the weak and frail Sae and couldn't help but ask her what was wrong.

Hui then noticed that there was another person in the courtyard. She glanced at him and saw that it was Geng Tai. Her expression immediately turned cold and resentful.

A day later, seeing that figure that had left a deep mark on my heart again, I felt a sudden, dull pain in my heart, and my breathing became rapid, as if I were drowning.

Hui stared coldly at Kōta without saying a word, and slowly walked towards him.

It was only a few steps from the courtyard to the gate, but when Hui walked down, her once charming eyes were dull and lifeless, her delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her pink lips were pursed and parted as if she had used up all her strength.

Hui took a few breaths, as if she had exhausted all her strength, and even her beautiful eyes were slightly moistened by the stimulation.

Even if anyone saw her and felt heartache, wanting to hold her in their arms and cherish her, they would also fear that her frail body would shatter like a crystal butterfly.

Kōta was heartbroken upon seeing this.

He had no idea why Hui had turned out this way after not seeing her for an afternoon and evening. What had happened during that time?

Especially the cold, emotionless look in Hui's eyes when she looked at him made his heart sink.

In both his past and present lives, Hui Man has never shown this kind of look in his eyes.

He knew that something "big" must have happened yesterday that he didn't know about!

Seeing Hui approaching him, Kōta could not remain indifferent. He took a few steps forward to Hui and tried to help her up, but Hui shook him off.

This action made Kouta freeze, his hand, which had been flung away, hang in mid-air.

After a long pause, Kouta withdrew his arm, suppressing the deep sorrow in his heart, and said with an awkward smile, "Hui, you... are you alright?"

Hui didn't answer, but instead slapped him across the face.

Ta-da!

A soft sound extinguished all the light in Kouta's heart, leaving him dejected and feeling as if the world had become dark and colorless.

Kouta's right cheek twitched slightly. To be honest, Hui's slap didn't hurt at all, but while his body didn't feel pain, his heart was bleeding.

After finishing, Hui stopped looking at him and only said to Misa, "Mom, I'm going back to my room to rest."

After saying that, she brushed past Kouta, entered the room without stopping, and disappeared, leaving Kouta standing there, completely bewildered.

a long time,

Geng Taicai has finally emerged from his deep sorrow.

"Hui, wait a minute~"

After saying that, he rushed into the house.

He wanted to find Hui and get to the bottom of things, even if it meant "dying," he wanted to "die" knowing why.

But the grass lantern could not grant his wish.

Soto stopped Kouta from entering, saying, "What are you still doing here? Get out! You're not welcome here!"

"I need to explain this to Hui. There must be some misunderstanding!" Kouta said listlessly.

"Shut up! I told you you're not welcome here! My daughter will never see you again! Now, right now... get out of here!"

Caodeng wouldn't budge an inch. He didn't care whether there was a misunderstanding between his daughter and him; all he remembered was that this little devil in front of him had gotten his daughter pregnant.

How could he possibly forgive Kouta like that, as a father?

Kouta ignored him and kept walking forward, muttering, "I'm going to see Hui."

However, he was pushed to the ground by the angry grass lantern.

Kouta scrambled to his feet and headed back into the house, only to be pushed to the ground again by Sora-no-Tsubasa...

Kouta did not intend to force his way in, partly because they were all Hui's relatives and he could not allow them to be harmed; and partly as a form of punishment for himself.

Seeing Kouta relentlessly rushing into his room time and time again, Soto finally got fed up and simply slammed the door shut, leaving Kouta outside.

However, Kouta did not give up and stayed outside the door without leaving.

……

Time passed slowly.

Before long, it was noon. The sun was blazing, the sky was clear and blue, and fluffy white clouds drifted by. The moisture evaporated, the ground dried up again, and the shadows turned blue. Except for a few puddles that indicated yesterday's rain, all other traces of rain had completely disappeared.

Kouta remained standing at the door, looking completely lost. He had made up his mind that he would not leave until he saw Hui today.

He simply couldn't imagine losing Hui...

Click~~

Suddenly, the door opened, and there stood Misa.

Kouta's lifeless eyes regained some vitality, and he asked excitedly, "Is Hui willing to see me?"

“No,” Misa replied.

Kouta gave a helpless, wry smile: "Ha~, that's true."

Seeing Kouta's expression, Misa was also puzzled. She had previously thought that Kei and Kouta had quarreled, but now it didn't seem like it. Moreover, Kouta seemed to know nothing about it.
