"Hmm~"
Akemi nodded gently, her eyes filled with warmth:
"Mom, the tone you used when you called my name just now was different from before, but it felt exactly like when I was little. I knew it back then. As for Shiho, she probably noticed the difference in your tone too, right?"
"Is that so?"
"Mingmei——"
Elena apologized to Akemi with some guilt:
"You've been in that dark organization for so many years, and you still had to take care of Shiho. You've really had a tough time!"
Elena gently held Akemi in her arms, stroking her hair, radiating maternal warmth.
"I'm alright, but I almost failed to protect Shiho. Luckily, Natsume showed up, otherwise—"
Mingmei leaned gently against her mother's chest.
A familiar, warm scent lingered around my nose.
A layer of mist rose in her pale blue eyes.
Once upon a time, this warm embrace only appeared in her dreams, but now her dream has come true. How wonderful!
"You've done a great job!"
After Elena regained her memories, she read through the log and naturally understood how much suffering her two daughters had endured in the Black Organization. The root of all this suffering was caused by her and Atsushi Miyano joining the organization, which made her feel very guilty towards her daughters.
"You're just not taking good care of yourself. You and Shiho are sisters. If you give up your life to save her, she'll suffer for the rest of her life!"
"I know!"
Akemi hugged her mother and spoke sweetly to her:
"In the end, everything was fine! Natsume rescued Shiho and me from the organization, and we're doing great now, Mom, please stop lecturing me!"
"You did all this for Shiho, how could I blame you!"
Elena looked at Akemi with pity in her eyes, but then blushed and asked hesitantly:
"About Xia Ye—"
"this......"
Akemi pulled away from Elena's embrace, her pretty face also flushed, but she still whispered:
"I have no objection. Ai is just a little awkward, but it's okay. In your current situation, you're practically a different person, so as long as you're willing—"
"I......"
Elena didn't know what to say.
The mother and daughter were speechless for a moment.
The atmosphere began to fall silent.
"Okay~"
Yukiko, having watched the show for quite some time, finally spoke up, waving her hand and giggling:
"We'll talk about those things later!"
"Didn't you notice?"
Why is there no sound from Ai's room?
"Ok?"
Akemi and Elena were indeed drawn to Yukiko's words, which was exactly the outcome they wanted. It would be too embarrassing to talk about what had just happened; it was best to keep it to themselves.
The three of them looked towards Ai's room.
......
Let's go back to what we were doing earlier.
Ai took Natsume back to her room.
She threw him onto the bed, grabbed him by the collar, and sneered on her little face:
"How do you want to die?"
"To die beneath the peony blossoms—"
Xia Ye only said half a sentence before retracting the rest under Xiao Ai's icy gaze.
"I'm angry, don't mess with me!"
Ai tried her best to look fierce with a stern face, but in Natsume's eyes, she was still just cute~
Xia Ye reached out and gently put her arm around Xiao Ai's waist.
Xiao Ai struggled fiercely to prove she was still angry, and soon, she heard Xia Ye's magnetic voice in her ear:
"Ai, I'm sorry!"
Ai stopped struggling and pursed her lips.
A hint of helplessness flashed in her icy blue eyes.
That's just how this scoundrel is; it's obvious that old habits die hard. What can we do?
The man I chose.
Is divorce still possible?
The connection isn't even established yet!
However, he should be punished no matter what, otherwise this scoundrel will think I'm easy to bully!
"What's the use of saying sorry? You shameless bastard, you still did such a terrible thing, it makes me so angry!"
"that--"
Xia Ye said cautiously:
"It may sound shameless, but I was the one who was forced into this situation today. You should investigate this carefully, Ai-chan!"
The sudden shout of "Ai-chan's wife" almost made Ai-chan burst out laughing.
This scoundrel hasn't even called anyone else's wife (Wang Nuohao) yet, and he's already the first one, hmph!
wrong!
I was almost knocked down by the sugar-coated bullet.
Ai suppressed her excitement and playfully tapped Xia Ye's forehead with her slender finger, saying:
"You accepted her offer? Couldn't you have refused? You knew she was... and you still went for it. Aren't you just trying to make me angry?"
"My little Ai-chan wife—"
Xia Ye said with a helpless look in her eyes:
"Aren't you overestimating me? Given the situation today, how could I possibly refuse?"
"you!"
Ai was speechless.
Thinking of the scene in the surveillance footage, she had to admit that if Xia Ye had refused under those circumstances, he wouldn't be Xia Ye!
hateful!
This can actually be considered a reason!
The key is that I have to agree with it...
"Humph!"
Ai didn't bother with excuses anymore. She pulled Xia Ye up and snorted softly:
"You're going to be punished anyway!"
"Okay, go ahead and say it."
Xia Ye did not object.
The most important thing now is to calm Ai down.
"Come with me and delete it!"
Ai took Natsume's hand and walked out of the room.
Chapter 119 Sleeping alone for seven days? That's too cruel!
In the living room of the villa.
atmosphere--
how to say?
It feels a bit strange.
Ai's face was expressionless.
The others sitting on the sofa remained silent.
He is clearly the youngest in the family.
Yet it inexplicably exudes an air of authority.
Everyone has to give her some face.
"Cough cough!"
Even Yukiko was sitting upright.
Ai felt a little vain.
snort!
Don't let your status as female characters that Natsume likes fool you; when it comes to the mistress of this house, it has to be me, Shiho Miyano!
"Well, Your Majesty, what command do you wish to announce? Please speak quickly, we are all ears!"
Seeing that Ai seemed to be suddenly lost in her fantasies, Yukiko teased her with a mischievous look in her eyes. Of course, given her personality, it's quite possible that she would say something like that seriously.
"cut!"
Ai pouted and rolled her eyes at her:
"If I were really some kind of matriarch, I would lock you up for two years first, so you wouldn't run out and cause trouble for others!"
"Wow!"
Yukiko exclaimed in exaggerated surprise.
Then, she complained to Xia Ye, looking aggrieved:
"Xia Ye, your precious Xiao Ai said she's going to lock me up, aren't you going to say a word? Do you really have the heart to—"
"Haha~"
Ai interrupted her with a cold laugh.
Then, with the air of a domineering wife, she said:
"He's barely managing to take care of himself right now, how could he possibly have time to worry about you? You'd better just shut up!"
"besides--"
"I have something to announce now."
"You said~"
Yukiko spoke in a solicitous tone.
Her pretty face wore a fawning smile.
As a highly skilled actress, she can easily portray a concubine trying to please the wife.
"Hey!"
Ai couldn't handle the lively and mischievous Yukiko, so she could only roll her eyes at her again, forcibly ignoring her, and said:
