Chapter 321 Heading to the Shinomiya House
The car drove on, and the passengers remained silent.
Natsumi and Kaguya Shinomiya sat together, looking completely at ease, as if they were in their own car.
Kaguya Shinomiya lowered her head in silence, her heart filled with both trepidation and anticipation.
Can she really break free from the constraints of her family with Xia Sheng's help?
No, it definitely can!
If Xia Sheng can't do it, then no one can help her.
But we're sitting so close together!
Kaguya Shinomiya felt incredibly shy. It was the first time she had ever sat with Natsuo for so long, they were practically touching!
The touch of the man's body confused her.
On the bus, she was the only one with unusual ideas.
Hayasaka Ai, having already determined her purpose for being exposed, remained silent with a serious expression.
She didn't know how she was exposed, nor did she believe that it was Kaguya Shinomiya who confessed.
Perhaps it was because he had this ability that they were sent to investigate him.
But... has her other identity also been discovered?
Will she and Kaguya be able to get along like they do now in the future?
Hayasaka Ai was filled with worry.
The car arrived at the Shinomiya family's mansion—a villa—in silence.
Despite being located in the city center, it is a spacious, luxuriously decorated detached house in a quiet and safe environment, and its appearance symbolizes status and wealth.
There were guards at the entrance, but they didn't check the inside of the car.
After all, they know exactly who goes in and out of this car five days a week and who is inside.
As soon as Xia Sheng got out of the car after it stopped, he felt wary gazes directed at him.
He ignored her and looked at Kaguya Shinomiya getting off the bus: "When is your brother coming back?"
"It should be soon," Kaguya Shinomiya replied.
"Let's wait for him for a while, and go check on your room first."
"?" Kaguya Shinomiya was stunned.
"Is it not allowed? Or is there something you're ashamed of?" Xia Sheng joked.
"How could that be!" Kaguya Shinomiya retorted shyly.
"So that means you're shy?"
"Hmm... come with me." Kaguya Shinomiya hesitated for a moment, but still led the way.
It's nothing, it's just that Xia Sheng can't see it.
Hayasaka Ai followed behind the two without saying a word.
She wasn't thinking about the future, but was gazing absently at Kaguya Shinomiya's flushed profile.
The shy Kaguya-sama saw him for the first time because of this man.
Kaguya-sama, have you been conquered by him?
Clearly, the two of them don't usually have much contact, so what's so special about him?
Unfortunately, she probably won't be able to investigate anymore, and her relationship with Kaguya-san will also come to an end.
Natsumi had no idea what Hayasaka Ai was thinking at that moment, but even if he did, he wouldn't comfort her now.
We need to put her through some tough times to solidify her resolve.
How could he not know her feelings for Kaguya Shinomiya?
Following Kaguya Shinomiya, taking winding paths and encountering many maids and servants, Natsuo finally arrived at her room door under their surprised gazes.
"...We've arrived." Kaguya Shinomiya stopped at the door, hesitant.
"I'm going to have a good look at the president's boudoir." Xia Sheng didn't stand on ceremony and pushed open the door as he spoke.
"wait--"
Kaguya Shinomiya tried to stop it, but it was too late.
The door was pushed open, revealing her entire room.
Actually, there's nothing special about it. It's a very large room, but also quite empty. The most noticeable thing is the big bed in the middle.
There's nothing suitable for girls in wealthy families, yet women can't do whatever they want.
Although Xia Sheng already knew, he still couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache when he saw her room.
Her previous days must have been very monotonous and boring, with endless etiquette to learn, endless knowledge to acquire, and rules to follow, preventing her from acting on her own.
However, it's impossible to determine whether his views on people born into wealthy and aristocratic families are good or bad.
Ordinary people envy nobles, and nobles envy ordinary people; it's something they themselves don't possess.
That's just how people are.
But there's one thing he can do: if Kaguya Shinomiya doesn't like this kind of life, he'll help her live the life she wants.
While noble families may seem unattainable to ordinary people, he was no ordinary man; he was someone that even noble families could only dream of.
"Natsuo?" Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't help but speak when she saw Natsuo staring at her room without saying a word.
"Huh?" Xia Sheng snapped out of his daze and looked at her.
"What do you think...?"
"It's a bit ordinary. If you put some dolls or something, it would look more like a girl's room."
"A girl's room..." Kaguya Shinomiya said with a forlorn expression.
"Don't worry, you'll be able to do whatever you want soon." Xia Sheng smiled slightly at her.
"Yes, I believe you!"
"I'm tired, can I sit on the bed?" Xia Sheng asked.
"?" Kaguya Shinomiya was in a panic.
"I'll take that as your agreement." Xia Sheng walked directly to her bed.
"How could this be..." Kaguya Shinomiya hurriedly followed.
She regretted not coming back earlier to check; who knew if the servants had cleaned properly, or if there was any stray hair or something?
She didn't lose her hair, but she just couldn't help worrying.
Xia Sheng came to the bedside, sat down, felt the softness of the bed, and relaxed.
Beside the bed, he could smell a more distinct fragrance, a scent unique to Kaguya Shinomiya, which he had noticed as soon as he entered the room.
The fragrance was light and refreshing, and Xia Sheng couldn't help but lean back and lie down on Shinomiya Kaguya's bed.
"Huh—Natsuo, you?" Kaguya Shinomiya was extremely embarrassed.
"I'm going to sleep for a while. Wake me when your brother comes back," Xia Sheng said, closing his eyes as if he were one of the family.
"Why is this happening..." Kaguya Shinomiya was conflicted, but she still didn't do anything to Natsuo.
She hesitated for a long time, then could only turn to Hayasaka Ai for help: "Hayasaka, what should I do?"
"Why don't you just lie down next to him?" Hayasaka Ai suggested casually.
Until her true identity is revealed, she will continue with her previous attitude.
"How could that be!" Kaguya Shinomiya said coquettishly.
"Miss Kaguya, weren't you won over by Natsuo? It's time to take the initiative. This is a great opportunity," Hayasaka Ai continued to tease.
Kaguya Shinomiya now makes her want to tease her a lot; it's very interesting.
It's a pity they didn't come sooner.
"What a great opportunity!" Kaguya Shinomiya was extremely embarrassed.
"Hehe~" Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but laugh.
Kaguya-san is so lovely like this; she has emotions and energy.
"You're still laughing? Will my bed... smell weird?" Kaguya Shinomiya glared at her and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Kaguya-san, if Natsuo smells anything strange, he won't be sleeping in your bed." Hayasaka Ai replied helplessly.
"real?"
"Really, I might even like the smell of your bed."
"I...I like it!" Kaguya Shinomiya panicked again.
"Miss Kaguya, that's not what you're worried about right now. What you're really concerned about is whether Natsuo and Lord Huang Guang's meeting later will be alright?"
"Hayasaka, don't worry, Natsuo can definitely do it." Kaguya Shinomiya said confidently.
"Why... do you trust him so much? You've only known each other for a little over a month, right? And you're already pinning your hopes on him?"
"Because Natsuo is really amazing." Kaguya Shinomiya smiled brightly.
." Hayasaka Ai was speechless.
This was the first time she had ever seen Kaguya laugh like that, and it happened so quickly. She couldn't help but wonder, is this what love-struck thinking is like?
What is Xia Sheng's identity? What is the situation of the Shinomiya family? Why does he dare to confront them directly?
Relying solely on one's own talents?
There are plenty of people as talented as him.
Hayasaka Ai couldn't get an answer; she wasn't one of them, and Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't explain it to her either.
She can only wait and see how things unfold.
Huang Guang returned quickly; someone had informed him of Xia Sheng's arrival.
Upon hearing Xia Sheng's news, he naturally returned immediately.
After being woken up by Kaguya Shinomiya, Natsuo went to see him alone, guided by Ai Hayasaka's father, and the journey was smooth.
Upon arriving at the main room, Natsumi went from room to room until he reached the room prepared by Shinomiya Hikari.
Huang Guang, feigning composure, sat calmly. He looked at Xia Sheng and asked softly, "You were looking for me..."

Swish!
Before he could finish speaking, a blade of wind grazed his face and cleaved a crack in the wall behind him, revealing the exterior.
Yellow light in the four palaces:
