"That…"
"Since your injuries have healed, I hope you can forget my recklessness that day. I hit you too hard in a fit of anger and even belittled your determination in front of her. I'm really sorry.”
This time, Yi Ju Yuan bowed for the first time. Although the action was not standard, it was obvious that he was sincere and was apologizing to her.
This "her" should be referring to the enraged Shiami Kaiharu, right?
" Well, actually, I didn't care that much..." Joe scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly." It was my fault for being weak. It wasn't a bad thing that the blow woke me up.”
"No, I have to apologize to you no matter what!”Yi Juyuan's face was tense and he looked unusually serious.
"I accept your apology no matter what." On the contrary, I should apologize to you on behalf of Haiqing, Ijuin.”
Ijuin didn't expect this.""Zhibo?"
"She's straightforward and grew up in the carefree Liuhun Street. She likes to find people to fight and cause trouble. She attacked you that day because she didn't know the rules and didn't mean any harm. I hope you can forgive her.”Joe said word by word, hoping that the other party would feel the same sincerity.
"She…"
"Can you forgive her?" Joe asked.
"I've never blamed Zhibo. Once I calmed down, I knew that I didn't say anything. But for some reason, every time I met her, I felt anxious and couldn't calm down.”Ijuin hated his noble blood. That's right, it must be because of his noble blood that he was at odds with this free man Shihami Haru, who was a traitor to the nobles.
"Is that so? I thought…"
Thinking back to the incident where Hai Qing was locked up in the principal's office until Haiyan came to plead for her release, it was difficult to determine the authenticity of his words. But she felt that he did not have to lie.
"Thought what? I hated her, so I used the power of the family to ostracize her?”Yi Juyuan looked disappointed." It's all my mother's fault. When she heard that I had a small injury, she insisted on blaming it on her and refused to let go. Now everyone in the Spiritual Academy must think that Zhibo and I have fallen out. Really."”
This complaint didn't seem to be a perfunctory one at all.
"So…that's all?"
To think that she thought that these two people were at odds with each other by nature and was so worried!
"That's it. However, I still don't like her. This won't change!”Yi Juyuan said seriously.
" Pfft-" Joe covered his mouth and laughed." Ijuin is really…"
"This is the restraint between competitors! I also hate her uninhibited personality. She's obviously such a genius, why doesn't she know how to make good use of her talent!”
"Yes, yes, yes. I will teach her a lesson.”
"Jiu Nan! What are you laughing at? And Hisashi, why are you laughing too?!”
"But then again," Qiao laughed so hard that she felt her chest ache. She stopped and stood up straight." Have you told Haiqing about this?”
Yi Juyuan hesitated for a while, then looked back at the sky outside.""No, I haven't."
"Why? She would be angry if he left her like this.”Joe felt that it was necessary to resolve their strange contradiction.
Ijuin thought for a long time and said,"But I don't want to apologize to her." She definitely won't forgive me."
“……”
This was textbook tsundere!
"How can you take it for granted? She wasn't a calculative person!”
"haggle over every ounce? No, I don't think so. It's indeed my fault this time. It's not strange for her to be calculative.”
"How would we know if we don't try?"
"I…"
"Just tell me if you want to reconcile with her.”she forced.
“……”
Ijuin fell silent.
"Hmm?"
She was waiting for his answer.
She was waiting for his answer with a gaze that he had never seen before.
Hesitating for only a moment, Yi Juyuan nodded heavily,""I don't want her to misunderstand me. It would be terrible if she thinks I'm an idiot who only knows how to use the family's power to shout and scream.”
"Yes, I understand your intentions. I can help with this."
A smile appeared on Joe's face as if he had a plan.
Yi Juyuan's mouth twitched. He felt that the other party was up to no good.
"Help?"
"Yes! Coincidentally, I also need your help.”
Joe's expression turned grave.
As long as she thought of Bai Zai's expression when he saved her that day, she would be drowned in layers of fear. The question that had been born since the moment she met Kong He a long time ago had actually been delayed for so long before she remembered it again.
When he and Jiu Nanbai were staying together in the Jingling Palace, who exactly did they meet?
And why did Jiu Nanbai disappear with a group of captains?
Why did she feel that she had seen Xiu Mu Bai Zai before?
She came here to find the truth. And this person in front of her was very likely to be able to help her more or less in this aspect. She needed a rich and powerful noble to open up a shortcut for her.
Ijuin didn't refuse and said seriously,""What is it about?"
She made her eyes shine with determination.
"Yes…I want to go somewhere.”
"A place?" Ijuin raised his eyebrows in suspicion.
Joe nodded.
"For this, I need your help.”she said.
Yi Juyuan's expression became serious.
"Tell me. If it's within my ability, I'll spare no effort to help.”
