The young couple here are making a fuss.
Akemi's gentle and calm voice came from the other end:
"Xia Ye, you should still go."
"I accidentally agreed to Ayumi's request."
"Say we'll go now..."
"..."
Xia Ye paused, then looked at Ming Mei who was holding up her phone. There were many more chat messages on the phone, the last one being: I'm coming over now!
"Mingmei, you betrayed me!"
"I'm sorry, Xia Ye..."
Akemi stuck out her tongue apologetically:
"That girl's way of acting cute is just like Ai Haibara's, I really can't bear to refuse her, thank you..."
"Forget it~"
Xia Ye looked helpless; Mingmei had already put it that way, and he couldn't possibly refuse.
"I'll go!"
Chapter 265 Ayumi's Mother's Embarrassment
Xia Ye drove the Audi sedan that she hadn't driven for many days out of the villa.
As for that large SUV—
All the women in my family need it.
They're going out to play in a little while!
"Xia Ye?"
"What brings you to call me today?"
A slightly surprised female voice came from the phone.
"What does 'have free time' mean?"
Xia Ye, holding the steering wheel, smiled and said:
"We chat on LINE all the time! Honestly, you make it sound like we haven't been in touch for ages!"
"What's the difference?"
The tone of Asai Makoto's voice across the table was somewhat reproachful:
"All you do is chat online all day. Moonshadow Island isn't far from Dongdu, and you haven't said you'd come visit me in all this time!"
"Don't talk about me! You're the same!"
"You didn't even tell me you were going back to Dongdu the day before yesterday, only telling me after you got back to Moonshadow Island. What, are you afraid I'll eat you?"
Xia Ye teased.
"Pooh!"
Asai Makoto spat lightly and retorted:
“That day I went back to Dongdu to visit my adoptive parents and spent the day with them. Then they insisted on taking me to the pier. How can I explain this to you!”
"They're all excuses!"
Xia Ye chuckled and said:
"You still don't want to see me? Otherwise, just tell your parents you're going to see your boyfriend. They definitely won't object!"
"Humph!"
"I won't do it!"
Asai Makoto's voice was shy and sweet. Her adoptive parents had been urging her to find a boyfriend for a long time. If she said something like Natsume, her parents might force her to meet her future son-in-law on the spot!
"wrong--"
"You've got me hooked!"
"Tell me quickly, what do you want from me?"
"Well-"
Xia Ye kept everyone in suspense for a moment:
"I won't tell you yet, I'll give you a surprise later!"
"surprise?!"
Asai Makoto on the other side was now somewhat surprised:
"Could it be—"
"Are you on the ship that's coming to Moonshadow Island right now?"
"Cough cough!"
Xia Ye coughed awkwardly:
"No, that's not it, it's another surprise!"
"Oh~"
Asai Makoto was somewhat disappointed, then asked again:
"what is that?"
You'll find out in a minute~
Natsume still wouldn't say it, but Asai Makoto was already very curious. She said in a slightly coquettish tone:
"Ugh, just tell me already!"
This coquettish tone made Xia Ye's body go weak. Asai Makoto is mature, gentle yet resolute. After all, in the original story, he planned and actually killed several of his father's murderers. A girl like this being coquettish would be even more heartwarming.
Xia Ye smiled slightly.
I was just about to tell her what had happened.
however--
His keen ears picked up the noise from the other side.
"Honest Doctor, what's going on?"
The owner of the voice seemed to be an old woman. She must have heard Asai Makoto's coquettishness earlier, so her tone was a little strange and had a hint of a smile.
"ah!"
Makoto Asai exclaimed in surprise:
"Grandma Yudai, why did you come in without knocking!"
"I've never knocked before when I came here!"
Granny Yudai sighed, then gossiped:
"Honest Doctor, is that your boyfriend?"
"no--"
Asai Makoto's slightly shy voice came through, and Natsume's lips curled into a mischievous smile as she raised her voice and shouted:
"Mother-in-law, don't listen to her nonsense. She's just too shy! I'm her boyfriend!"
"ah!"
Asai Makoto shouted in embarrassment and anger:
"I'm hanging up. I'll settle the score with you next time!"
"Okay, you go ahead and do your thing."
"Remember to introduce me properly to your mother-in-law!"
Before Xia Ye could finish speaking, the other end of the line hung up in "anger." He smiled slightly and began to concentrate on driving. There was something even more surprising for Asai Makoto in a little while!
just now.
The group of girls in my family discussed it for a long time and suddenly decided to go to Tsukikage Island to find Asai Makoto, then eat at the island's hot springs, and soak in the hot springs there tonight!
This decision was sudden.
But as Asai Makoto said.
Tsukikage Island is only an hour's flight from Toto, and it takes less than half an hour to get from Mihana Town to Toto Bay.
If we set off now...
You might even make it to the tail end of lunch!
Well--
Hopefully, Makoto Asai won't be too surprised to see a large group of girls coming to her place for a free meal later.
Look at them.
It seems they wanted Asai Makoto to treat them to a meal!
...
I mentioned it last time.
Ayumi's family is quite wealthy.
Her home is located in Seiwan, Ichome.
The house prices here are almost comparable to those in the port area.
It is a truly high-end residence.
Xia Ye parked her car and walked into the European-style building.
The elevator slowly goes up.
It finally stopped on the 30th floor.
As a high-end residence, it naturally won't be too cramped.
The huge 30-story building actually houses only four households. The other two households are located in another elevator building, so even the corridor outside the elevator is very spacious.
I arrived at Ayumi's house.
Xia Ye reached out and knocked on the door.
Although Ayumi had sent the password to him without any suspicion in the text message chat, Xia Ye did not open the door and go in directly. After all, this was someone else's house, and if he wanted to go in, he should first greet them!
Click——!
After a while.
The door in front of us was opened from the inside.
Ayumi's cute little face peeked out, and her big eyes were full of joy when she saw Natsume.
She reached out her small hand and pulled Xia Ye inside, then locked the door before shouting loudly into the house:
"mom!"
"Brother Xia Ye is here! Come out quickly!"
"..."
There was no response from the very large house, and Ayumi looked puzzled.
"Huh, I remember Mom's home?"
"It's okay, maybe she's resting~"
Xia Ye glanced thoughtfully in a certain direction, but then casually turned back to chat with Ayumi:
Didn't you tell Mom I was coming?
