"Then, Yue-chan, I'm coming."
When he arrived at school, Xun Yu skipped his classes again and appeared in Na Yue's office.
"Okay, I understand. There's something I need your help with. Astarut."
Early in the morning, Na Yue was still holding the black tea in her hand with a happy expression on her face. She seemed to be very satisfied with the black tea made by Astarut and asked her to hand over the information that she had prepared earlier to Xun Yu.
"Oh? What are you doing?"
Xun Yu was very familiar with the information on the file because he had seen it last night. It was the simulated angel studied by Sage Ye Lai.
"Come out with me tonight.”
"Then, Yue-chan, can I take it that you're looking for me for a date? But can I?"
Hearing Na Yue's words, Xun Yu knew what he was going to do. However, if he agreed so readily, wouldn't it seem a little unreserved?
Whoosh!
A book flew in front of Xun Yu before he could finish his sentence.
"Don't be so violent. No one will like you like this. Although I still like you so much, who asked that Yue-chan to be so loving.”
After blocking the flying English dictionary with his hand, he casually put it by his side and stood up to walk to Na Yue's side.
"Oh? Do you have to meddle in the teacher's private affairs? Or are you just bored and making fun of the teacher?”
A dissatisfied expression appeared on Na Yue's face. This was an improvement from her previous expressionless face.
"Who said that? I just don't want Yue Jiang to leave me. Hey, Yue Jiang, can you stay by my side in the future?”
He came to Yue's side and moved a stool to sit beside her. He looked at her affectionately. His hopeful expression was as if he was saying to Yue, Promise me, I will give you happiness.
"If you're joking, then you can leave. If what you said is true, then I can only answer you that it's impossible between us.”
After a period of silence, Yue pointed at the door and said to Xun Yu.
"Is that so? However, Yue, let me make it clear now that the things I have decided on are not easily changed. Let's put this matter aside for now and talk about the date tonight.”
Na Yue's words also made Xun Yu silent for a while, but it was only for a short while. Then, he smiled and touched Na Yue's smooth face.
"Take your hand away. About tonight's matter, wait for me at the business street. I'll look for you then. Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave.”
She slapped away the hand that was touching her face and pointed at the door angrily.
"Alright, then I'll look forward to tonight's date.”
Xun Yu said with a smile and did not stay any longer. He stood up and walked out.
"…We are people from two different worlds.”
After staring at the door for a long time, Yue returned to her senses and said something that only she could hear.
"Phew, I know. Then, Yue, wait for me. I'll let you out sooner or later.”
After walking out of the door, Xun Yu let out a sigh of relief. His eyes became more determined.
"Is this the High Mage Sculpture? What an outdated company, but it really suits me. At the very least, whatever he did here would not attract too much attention. He believed that it would be useful in the future.”
When he arrived at Sage Yase's company, he looked at the old office building outside the door and walked in.
"Is Sage Yase here? Tell him that the person he met last night has come to look for him.”
As soon as he entered, he saw many civilian robots in the hall. After a glance, he lost interest and walked straight to the front desk.
"Okay, please wait a moment. We're communicating now.”
"Oh right, is Natsume Yase here?”
"I'm sorry, I'm currently out."
Going out? Xun Yu would never believe this answer. After what happened last night, it would be strange if Sage Ye Lai could still let Xia Yin out. However, it was useless no matter what.
"You're here. Follow me."
About five minutes later, Sage Yase appeared in front of Xun Yu and gestured for him to follow him upstairs before leaving.
“……”
Smiling, he did not say anything and followed behind. Was there a need to worry that Sage Ye Lai had ill intentions? There was no need to worry because nothing could hurt him here.
"Sit anywhere you want. What do you want to drink?"
"No need, let's talk about Xia Yin.”
He casually found a seat and sat down. He looked at Sage Yase, who had no expression on his face, and knocked on the table.
“……”
"Tell me, what do you want to do? Or rather, what do you want?"
"My answer is that I only want my daughter. Other than her, I don't want anything else. I'm fine with giving you this company.”
Just as Xun Yu was getting impatient and asked again, Sage Ye Lai had already answered. The answer was obvious. He was willing to give up everything for his daughter.
"Hmm, very good. This is an answer. However, I'm sorry to tell you that this is not possible because you have already lost the qualifications to be a father when you transformed Xia Yin into an angel. Even if there was nothing! Did you know? Actually, as children, they did not have high expectations for themselves. As long as they had their parents by their side, as long as they could live happily as a family, as long as their parents could be happy for them, that would be good. This was the happiness of children.”
"But do you have the right to be a father? You think you can give Xia Yin happiness? Did he ask her? You know Xia Yin's background better than me. She is your sister's daughter, but she left her mother when she was young. What does she need? It was love! Not those inexplicable powers, but your love for her. But what did you do? He actually modified her. Was this what a father should do?”
Xun Yu, who was initially impatient, laughed when he heard Sage Ye Lai's words. In the next moment, he was furious. He kicked the table in front of him and stood up, pointing at Sage Ye Lai and cursing.
“……”
"What's wrong? Not making a sound? Nothing to say? Alright, although I don't know if you knew such a simple truth before, I'm telling you now that Xia Yin will follow me in the future. If she wants to see you, I can bring her back. Also, this is the money to buy your company. 300 million is enough, right?”
Seeing that Sage Ye Lai was still silent, Xun Yu did not say anything more. He took out his checkbook, wrote a check for 300 million US dollars, and threw it on the desk.
"Now, where is Xia Yin?"
“……”
"What's wrong? Still not willing to speak? Are you forcing me to kill you while knowing about Xia Yin? So that you won't be able to see each other again?"
Looking at Sage Ye Lai, who was still silent, Xun Yu grabbed his collar and lifted him up. His eyes were already turning red.
"On the second floor, in the fourth room…"
As a magister, his body was weak to begin with. It was very uncomfortable to be mentioned by others. Moreover, Sage Ye Lai did not want to be unable to see his daughter again. He said Xia Yin's current location with difficulty.
"Tomorrow, I will find someone to take over here. You can choose to stay here or leave. I can find you wherever you are, so don't worry about Xia Yin not finding you. Also, from today onwards, Xia Yin would no longer live here.”
After taking one last look at Sage Ye Lai, he went out to look for Xia Yin. He no longer paid any attention to this man who had completely repented but still made a mistake.
"Xia Yin, are you there?"
Outside Room 204 on the second floor, Xun Yu pressed on the communicator and said.
"Yes, may I know who you are? Ah, it's the senior from last night!"
Xia Yin walked to the door when she heard the voice. She looked at the person outside but did not recognize him for a moment. This was also related to last night. The lighting was not good last night, so Xia Yin did not see Xun Yu's face clearly. Later, because of her father's arrival, she did not pay much attention to Xun Yu, so it took her a while to react.
"Yeah, open the door."
He smiled and looked at the door that had yet to open.
"Ah, yes, I'm sorry. I forgot.”
Hearing Xun Yu's words, Xia Yin realized that she had lost her composure. She actually didn't invite him in and left him standing at the door.
"Yeah, Xia Yin, I didn't expect your room to be filled with cats."
As soon as he entered the room, he saw the cat toys on the cabinet. Then, he glanced around the room and realized that not only were there toys on the cabinet, but there were also cat toys on the desk, the floor, and even the bed.
"Yes, because cats are not allowed here, but I love cats very much, so I bought some cat dolls. Oh right, senior, please sit down. There's only boiling water here. Do you mind?”
Seeing Xun Yu grab a cat toy, Xia Yin gently nodded and touched the belly of a cat toy lying on the table.
"You're welcome. I'll just sit down. Actually, you should know the purpose of my visit today.”
Xun Yu didn't sit on the chair. He sat on Xia Yin's bed and smelled the fragrance coming from the bed.
"... Yeah."
Last night, Xun Yu had already told him about it, but he was still a little depressed when he faced it.
"I've already talked to your father just now, and he agreed. Xia Yin, pack up. We'll leave this place later. Yes, we'll go to your new residence.”
"Can I say goodbye to my father?"
She knew that this was something that could not be changed. Although her father had done this to her, Xia Yin did not hate him. She was still grateful to him. He was the one who accompanied her when she lost her mother and gave her everything she had now.
"Okay, you go ahead. I'll help you clean up here. You just need to bring some clothes and these cat toys, right? I'll go buy the rest of the things with you later.”
Xun Yu nodded at Xia Yin's request and didn't stop her. He had already said that Xia Yin could meet her father at any time if she wanted to. He only asked Xia Yin what she needed to pack and what she didn't need to pack before letting her leave.
P.S. The previous chapter was a little over-written. It was revised yesterday, so there was only one chapter updated yesterday. It was still in the process of being reviewed, so it would probably pass today.
