The next two days are the period.
Aside from Yukiko getting a beating from Eri Kisaki.
Everything was calm around Xia Ye.
Vermouth's fears of her identity being discovered did not come true, and she continued to interact with Ran as a newly acquainted friend.
Ran even gave her the last Yoko Okino concert ticket she had.
Xia Ye had a very relaxing time these past two days. She took Ai and Akemi to school, then went to find a place with Yukiko to... cough cough, play, then picked up Ai and Akemi from school, and finally guided them in practicing karate at the dojo.
Eri Yabuki has already registered the foundation, and Natsume has transferred the money as agreed.
The procedures for the security company on Akahara Ryosuke's side are a bit complicated, but it should be officially established in another two days.
Everything proceeded smoothly and in an orderly manner.
And finally, the day of Yoko Okino's concert arrived.
Chapter Ninety-Nine: Ayumi's Mother
In the kitchen of the villa.
Akemi hummed a cheerful tune as she prepared breakfast.
Yukiko and Ai sat cross-legged on the sofa, pointing at a fashion magazine.
The two women, who clearly looked like mother and daughter, were chatting about best friends, and they seemed to be having a very harmonious conversation.
Xia Ye came downstairs, sat down next to the two, picked up the remote and turned on the projector TV on the wall, and glanced at Yukiko:
"Why are you staying at my house again?"
"Can't you?"
Yukiko gave him a light kick in disgust:
"Ai agreed!"
"Besides, if I go home, I'll be all alone. How lonely would that be? Xia Ye, don't you have any sympathy?"
"Who said you can't stay here?"
The woman's eyes were filled with resentment, and her expression was one of grievance; she acted so convincingly that Xia Ye looked at her speechlessly and said:
"You can stay here every day, I won't kick you out, but every time you go to sleep, you have to leave one of Ai or Akemi for me, right? You're always hogging them, don't you think I'll be lonely when I sleep?"
"That won't do!"
Yukiko resolutely refused, her words righteous and stern.
"Ai and Akemi are like my wings; I can't sleep without holding them!"
"A two-winged angel, right?"
Xia Ye was amused by her, reached out and pulled over the foot that Xia Ye had kicked earlier and hadn't yet retracted, and gently tickled the soft white sole a few times, "Fine, even if they are all your wings, can't you give me one?"
“Itchy!”
Yukiko desperately tried to pull her foot back, but Natsume's large hand grabbed it and tickled it, even stimulating it with two strands of true energy. She instantly surrendered.
"Okay, I'll give you one!"
"You two!" Ai, who had been watching coldly, said in a cold voice with a dark face, "What do you take me and my sister for?"
Yukiko: "My best friend!"
Xia Ye: "Wife!"
Xiao Ai: “…”
Fine! It was definitely wrong of me to argue with these two!
Ai rolled her eyes at them, stood up and walked straight towards the restaurant, too lazy to pay attention to these two idle guys. She and her sister had to go to school later!
...
Outside the villa gate.
Ai and Akemi were wearing specially made Teitan High School uniforms.
Blue uniform and short skirt.
Ai looks petite and cute.
703 Mingmei is gentle, pure, and charming.
Ran told me that some boys at school have been slipping love letters into Akemi's shoe locker these past few days. As for Ai, no one has sent her any love letters yet.
Xia Ye was not worried about their safety at school.
He underestimated the effects of the [Resurrection Elixir]. Although Ai and Akemi only drank half a bottle each, their aptitude had already been enhanced to an extraordinary degree.
Putting everything else aside, just looking at their karate skills, the two sisters, especially Ai, have already reached a level of mastery.
Every single boy at Teitan High School, even including the male teachers, couldn't beat Ai Haibara 99% of them.
Besides, Xiao Lan is by my side, so what is there to worry about?
.........
Xia Ye drove the Ford Raptor SUV out of the garage, and Xiao Ai and Ming Mei got in the car.
"I'm not going today."
Yukiko lightly tossed her hair and smiled as she said:
"Sharon asked me out for coffee. I'm going to the concert with her tonight. You can bring Ai and Akemi along."
"Belmod?"
Xia Ye frowned and asked:
"She hasn't confessed to Xiaolan yet?"
"No~"
Yukiko also felt that her good friend's actions this time were a bit outrageous. Everyone knows from the log that you, Vermouth, genuinely like Ran. You should just reveal your identity and approach Ran directly.
Why pretend to be someone else to get close to them? And if you're going to pretend, why are you not even trying? Using your real face with a name that's easy to be exposed is just contradictory!
"What will she do tonight?" Xia Ye was speechless.
"The concert tickets Yoko Okino gave us are for consecutive shows, which means we'll be sitting together. Tell her that I won't help her keep it a secret from Ran!"
"I do not know either!"
Ai snorted coldly through the open back seat window.
"Me too~"
Akemi reached past her sister, stuck her head out of the car window, winked at Yukiko, and joined in the fun.
"I'll ask her again later," Yukiko thought for a moment. "I guess she's mentally prepared to tell Ran the truth tonight."
"Okay, see you tonight~"
"See you tonight~"
........
Natsume sat in the car in front of Teitan High School.
Ai and Akemi went to school.
Yukiko went to visit Bei-nee.
Xia Ye, who had been accompanied by others for the past few days, felt a little lonely and didn't know where to go for fun.
After thinking for a moment, Xia Ye took out her phone, found a video, and opened it. Upbeat dance music started playing in the car.
"It's really burning!"
On the phone screen was a picture of a young woman with exquisite makeup and a hot figure dancing. She wore a gray, super-short, bodycon skirt, black stockings that covered her long legs, and black high heels with heels at least ten centimeters high. It has to be said that to be able to dance so intensely dressed like that, she is truly worthy of being a former girl group member.
Moreover, the dance she performed was a girl group dance that's banned in South Korea—those who know, know what I mean.
Just one word: Burn!
Of course, she only had one burned.
When it comes to sexiness and allure, Vivienne Westwood is ten times more alluring than her in sheer fabric!
"Speaking of which, it's my order after all, shouldn't we go and patronize it?" Xia Ye stroked his chin and pondered, "This young lady came all the way from South Korea to Japan, and she's unfamiliar with the place. We should at least let her feel the warmth of Japan, right? Although I'm not Japanese either~"
"Jingle Bell--!"
The sudden ringtone startled Xia Ye. He was watching a video that was inappropriate for children, and the unexpected call made him feel a little guilty.
Is it still an unfamiliar number?
"Hello, are you Mr. Akiyama Natsume?" A gentle, soothing female voice came through the phone as soon as the call connected.
"Yes, you are?"
"I am Ayumi Yoshida's mother, um—" Mrs. Yoshida seemed a little embarrassed, "Mr. Akiyama, do you have a moment now?"
"Well, I guess I have some free time~"
Xia Ye thought about the sexy dance videos in the background of her phone, then thought about the little loli Ayumi, and made a difficult decision:
"What's going on, Mrs. Yoshida?"
"It's like this, Mr. Akiyama, since we came back from the orphanage last time, my daughter Ayumi has been nagging me to ask Natsume-nii to teach her to play the piano~"
Mrs. Yoshida was troubled:
"I didn't mean to bother you, but today during my piano lesson at home, Ayumi wouldn't let her private piano teacher teach her at all, and she even made the teacher leave in anger..."
"I understand. Mrs. Yoshida, give me an address, I'll be right there~" Xia Ye started the car. She had promised Ayumi at the orphanage that she would teach her a lesson, and since she had some time today, she might as well fulfill that promise~
"Okay, thank you for your help, Mr. Akiyama!"
........
According to the address sent by Mrs. Yoshida.
Xia Ye drove to an upscale residential area located in Beikacho 1-chome.
Living in an upscale residential area in the center of Dongdu City, Xia Ye already knew that Ayumi's family was well-off, but she didn't expect them to be exceptionally wealthy.
Thirty floors.
Xia Ye rang the doorbell.
Soon the door was opened from the inside, and a young and beautiful lady stood at the door to greet Xia Ye.
A look of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw Xia Ye.
So young!
Still very handsome!
Mrs. Yoshida had no idea that the "Brother Natsume" Ayumi mentioned was such a young and handsome man. Although Ayumi had said she had never seen a boy more handsome than Brother Natsume, Mrs. Yoshida didn't believe her at all, thinking it was just a child's biased impression.
Surprisingly, what Ayumi said was true!
"Mr. Akiyama, please come in!"
Mrs. Yoshida warmly welcomed Natsume inside, calling out towards the house, "Ayumi!"
"Coming!"
Soon, Ayumi ran out of a room that looked like a study and came to Natsume, her face full of surprise and joy. "Brother Natsume, why did you come so quickly?"
"How could I be late when Ayumi summoned me!" Xia Ye patted her head and said with a smile, "I heard from your mother that you made your piano teacher leave?"
"this......"
Ayumi glanced at her mother furtively and said shyly in a low voice, "Brother Xia Ye, I know I was wrong, but it was because Mom said she wouldn't invite you to teach me piano that I did this!"
"Cough cough!"
Mrs. Yoshida coughed lightly.
Her own daughter completely sold herself out.
