"Xishan, I don't know what you are talking about." He put on a puzzled look and started to act stupid.
"you!!"
"Okay, Genping, calm down." Yuyu pressed Xishan's shoulders, "Let's talk on the rooftop."
After calming his friend down, he looked at Yeji Chi who was sitting on the stool and sighed softly, "Chi, come with us to the rooftop to talk. There are things that Genping and I want to tell you."
"I...."
"Don't tell me you don't want to go." Xishan Genping snorted coldly and grabbed Ye Sichi's wrist directly. "Qingyou is not here. This time, only Xiaoyu and I want to talk to you. We will take up a little of your time. Master Chi will not even give us this little time, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Shichi fell silent again. Looking at the two young men in front of him who used to be good friends with him, he sighed slightly in his heart.
——Never mind, let’s just treat it as our final farewell
He stood up and spoke slowly, his voice just as hoarse as before, "Let's go then."
----
"So, what do you want to talk about?"
Standing on the rooftop, Ye Shichi held the railing with one hand and coughed lightly. The dark circles under his lower eyelids were dark blue, and his physical condition was much worse than before the quarrel.
"Aka." Hanyu walked up to him worriedly and patted him on the back. "Go to the infirmary later and take some medicine and rest for a while. You have a slight cold."
"I'm fine." Ye Sichi coughed and waved his hand, "Let's talk about business first."
Yuzuru silently withdrew his hand and felt the other party's distant attitude. Although he had expected it, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"We want to talk about you and Qingyou." Suppressing the emotions in his heart, he stated the purpose of this trip, "Chi, Genping and I always feel that you have misunderstood. Don't you know Qingyou very well? Since he promised you that it wasn't true, then it must not be true."
"What kind of person is he?" Ye Sichi sneered a few times, as if he had heard the biggest joke.
"It was because I believed him before that I was fooled around like a moron." Pointing at himself, he said sarcastically, "If I hadn't seen some facts with my own eyes, I would probably still be kept in the dark."
"Don't jump to conclusions about some things. Don't just look at the surface. Even what you see with your own eyes could be fake," Hanyu explained hurriedly, wanting him to look at the problem from a different angle. "Maybe there's something hidden. You can't..."
"That's enough!" Ye Sichiwu interrupted loudly, "Don't tell me it's superficial or not. At least my eyes won't deceive me!"
"Also, we have gone our separate ways, and nothing is related to each other anymore. Please don't bother me in the future, thank you." After saying this with an impatient expression on his face, he took a step forward and was about to leave.
"Bridges are bridges, roads are roads." Nishiyama Genpei, who had been silent, grabbed Nojichi's collar and pushed him against the wall. "Did you ask for our opinions when you said that?!"
"Just because that shady bastard Sakishima Yamada said a few words to you, you are so sure that Qingyou deceived and betrayed you and broke up with us?"
Nishiyama Genpei gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with uncontrollable anger, "Nojichi, you are really not worthy of saying the words friendship and brotherhood!!"
"I think you may have misunderstood something." Being belittled by Xishan, Ye Si's eyebrows twisted together, and he became a little angry, "I said before, the truth is based on my eyes..."
"Eyes? Oh, are you sure what you saw was real?" Xishan Genping stared at him, "Can you guarantee that you saw Qingyou and Guiyan Xinmei kissing each other's lips with your own eyes?"
When he heard the question, the expression on Yesi Chi's face froze. Recalling the scene of that day, he fell silent.
Seeing the boy's reaction, Nishiyama Genpei understood instantly, and the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a sarcastic arc, "I can't guarantee the authenticity of the incident. Just because Sakishima Yamada said a few words to you, it must be that Qingyou deceived you, and you even quarreled with us for it, Nojichi, your so-called trust is too worthless! ”
Ye Shichi pursed his cracked lips, and for a moment, he was unable to refute anything.
"Let's talk about your goddess. She must have rejected you more than once. Qingyou and I have advised you to let go more than once, but what about you?!"
Xishan Genping glared at him, his tone was sarcastic and mocking, "It's fine that you didn't listen to my advice, but you broke up with us because of a woman who doesn't care about you at all. Ye Sichi, in your heart, are we brothers really not as good as Gui Yanxinmei!!"
"No, that's not it." Ye Sichi said dryly, trying to explain, "I was just bullied..."
"You're telling me about deception and betrayal?" Xishan Genping sneered, "How did Qingyou treat you before? Have you fucking forgotten everything?"
"You were punished by your teacher to copy homework, who helped you share half of the workload? You climbed over the wall and were discovered by the teacher, who stood up to take the responsibility for you? You got drunk and fell asleep, who carried you back home in the middle of winter?!"
Nishiyama Genpei poked Nojichi's chest a few times with his fingers and questioned him, "If he really sees you as a tool he just wants to use, then why does he do these thankless things? Tell me! Aren't you quite talkative?"
Ye Shichi closed his eyes, his breathing gradually became disordered, and all the things that happened in the past suddenly emerged in his mind. For a moment, mixed emotions lingered in his heart.
His throat seemed to be choked by something, and he couldn't say anything.
Seeing the boy's reaction, Xishan Genping paused, then let go of his hand and said in a low voice, "Qingyou didn't climb over the wall to eat at noon these few days, and went home alone after school in the afternoon, and didn't go to the Internet cafe with us."
"He has been waiting for you."
Hearing this, Nojichi's closed eyelids trembled.
"Think it over carefully, Chi, and don't let your brothers down again."
After saying this in a deep voice, Xishan Genping turned around and left without stopping.
"red..."
Hanyu looked at the boy worriedly.
He reminded him with concern to remember to go to the infirmary to rest for a while, and then left the rooftop with Xishan.
Behind him, Ye Sichi did not move. Only when Genping and the others completely disappeared in the rooftop gate did he slowly open his eyes and look in the direction they left, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Really, is it my fault...?"
The sound of his self-questioning floated in the air, like the whisper of the wind, barely audible.
Chapter 52 Crisis is coming!
Hanyu Reizuki talked for a long time on the phone with relatives who were far away in other cities. After learning most of the situation, the couple decided to adopt the Hanyu siblings.
They set out that day and revealed on the phone that they could get here from other cities in just over a day.
This was undoubtedly good news, and it also brought a new light to Hanyu Reizuki's eyes. Her originally nervous face gradually revealed a smile, and she seemed to be in a much better mood than when she first came to the library.
Things were progressing so smoothly, and Qingyou finally felt relieved.
After taking a breath, he went to his teacher's office and asked for half a day's leave. After getting approval, he left the campus without stopping, took the tram to the most famous local law firm, and began to draft the adoption contract.
The trouble is, no matter how you go around it, the adoption contract will only take effect with the consent and signature of the biological father, Hanyu Keidō.
Of course, if Hanyu Keidō dies in an accident, the adoption contract will also be effective as long as the adopted family has the ability to raise him.
After understanding the general situation, Qingyou paid the fee and left the office with two printed contract documents.
[Host, have you figured out what to do now? ]
"I have some idea. Don't worry. We have to do it step by step." Qingyou walked towards the tram station and asked, "Uncle Tong, how long is the deadline for the mission of the thugs in suits?"
[Host, it's almost over. It will be completely closed on January 9th. ]
The system urged him politely, "So, speed up the process if possible, host. We don't have much time."
After all, today is the 28th, and there are not many days left no matter how you count.
"Okay, I understand. I will pay attention to this aspect."
He pressed his thumb between his eyebrows to smooth out the frown that had just appeared.
If it's too late, I can only pick a time to tell Chi that the eldest lady is a lesbian.
----
Riding the tram back to school, Qingyou discovered that his two friends were in a somewhat strange mood today.
After knocking for a while, I finally got the reason from them.
Good guy, he called Ye Sichi to the rooftop behind his back and gave him a lecture.
During the break, Qingyou took them to a secluded place to talk, and each of them got a slap on the head.
"Can't you wait a few days to have a good talk with Chi? His emotions haven't stabilized yet. If you two rush in, you're just walking into a trap!"
One is wilder than the other.
"Damn it, can Xiaoyu and I be blamed for this? Chi's condition is getting worse day by day. If he continues like this, he might even develop depression." Xishan Genping rubbed his head and began to explain, "He must be feeling bad about breaking up with us. I just want to talk to him and comfort him."
"As we were chatting, you ended up scolding him?" Qingyou held his forehead in silence.
"Brother, what kind of comfort is this?"
Xishan Genping smiled awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Qingyou, it was indeed wrong for Genping to be so impulsive on the rooftop just now, but he was mostly speaking for you, so don't blame him." Yuzuru spoke slowly, hoping that the young man could be more understanding. Nishiyama Genping on the side nodded repeatedly with an expression of great approval.
Giving the idiot a look, Hanyu continued, "Now, let's think about how to reconcile with Chi Chong."
After a pause, he sighed slightly, "You look so lost and depressed all day long, which makes me feel very uncomfortable."
Hearing this, Xishan Genping and Qingyou fell silent at the same time.
——Yeah, don’t they feel uncomfortable?
A real small group exists when four people are together. No one can be missing. The foursome that were once inseparable should not become enemies because of a small misunderstanding.
"As for Chi, I'll pick a time to have a good chat with him."
No matter what, none of the four of them can be missing!
We had clearly made various agreements together before this, so we should complete and implement them together.
"Xiaoyu, Genping, I will definitely let Chi return to our group of four." Qingyou let out a long breath, smiled, and made a promise, "When the time comes, the four of us will climb over the wall together again to go out for dinner, and then go to the Internet cafe together after school in the afternoon to play the game."
"Um!!"
----
After taking the medicine prescribed by the school doctor, Ye Shichi lay alone on the bed in the infirmary, wanting to rest for a while.
Although his body was very tired, his clear mind still occupied his mind with all his worries.
The scenes of him and his three friends were like a movie in a theater, playing in his mind over and over again.
How can I fall asleep when I have no desire to sleep at all?
"Are the three of us brothers really not as important as Gui Yan Xinmei in your heart?!"
Genping's rebuke and questioning of him on the rooftop kept ringing in his ears and could not be dispelled no matter how hard he tried.
——Really, am I wrong...
He muttered to himself silently, placing one hand on his chest, feeling the regular beat of his heart, trying to find the answer from there.
Just like an ignorant child, he cautiously tries to step out of what he thinks is his safety zone and enter another world shrouded in fog.
Hesitate in the temptation, hesitate in the wandering
Staring blankly at the white ceiling above his head, confusion flashed in his lifeless eyes.
He is the only son of the Yesi family and is destined to inherit the Yesi enterprise in the future.
Since birth, he has been far ahead of countless peers at the starting line and is loved by the elders.
Whatever you want, you can have it. There is nothing you can't get.
From childhood to adulthood, he has been instilled with this concept by his elders, and it has never changed. In the end, it has become deeply rooted and he himself believes it deeply.
He is the eldest son of a wealthy family. As long as he sets his eyes on something, it must be his. No matter if it is an object or a person, and no matter whether the other party is willing or not, it has been forever labeled as an accessory in his mind.
The first time he saw Gui Yanxinmei at the marriage alliance between aristocratic families, he was deeply infatuated with this stunningly beautiful woman and even put a label on her in his mind.
——She belongs to me!!
He made this decision without hesitation. Even though the girl later broke off the engagement with him and became even more disgusted with him, he never changed his mind that she was his accessory.
He doesn't need any reason, just because he is the eldest son of the Yesi family. What he chooses must be his. No one can touch it. Anyone who touches it will die.
I always thought so before I came to Nanchang to study.
Until he met Qingyou, a group of friends who looked at him without any strange eyes.
Some of the ideas in my mind have gradually changed.
Changed....
The confusion in Ye Si's red eyes gradually faded away, and something that had been covered in dust was breaking out of the mist.
Am I, the Gui Yanxinmei whom I once loved?
He asked himself
He should like her, otherwise he wouldn't have transferred to Nanchang just for her, but is that like really pure?
Most of the time, it's vanity that's at work, because unwillingness creates false emotions...
