76.

"What? Work hard?"

Atobe Keigo looked at Yukie with a funny face.

Xuezhi was silent for a few seconds, then nodded heavily: "To some extent, it's really hard work."

Two naive ghosts in their 20s had been arguing intermittently in front of her for five days, and I really don't know where they got their energy from.

The lazy Xuezhi just wants to go back and have a good rest.

If it weren't for the frequent calls from her younger brothers to care about her these days, she might not even want to go home on weekends, and just want to stay quiet in the dormitory of the detective agency.

As for the frequent phone calls from her younger brothers, besides the first time she left home to work, there is another very important reason...

"Have you been in any trouble recently?"

Atobe Keigo looked at Shang Xuezhi why he said this, and explained: "I found out that several villas under your name have changed hands."

If you count it seriously, there are not many high-end villa areas in various places-just like the previous Takao-san villas-most of the vacation villas of the Atobe family and the Asahina family are very close.

Keigo Atobe was shocked when he learned that the villa under Xuezhi's name had changed hands.

It was hard not to make him wonder if something happened to the Asahina family.

If Keigo Atobe was not taking over the affairs of the Atobe Consortium and was preparing to take over the power of the Atobe Consortium smoothly, it could be confirmed that there was no problem with the cooperation with the Asahina family. After some investigation, it was found that the rest of the Asahina family had no problems.

Maybe Keigo Atobe couldn’t help running to Yokohama to ask questions and provide help as soon as possible during the working days a few days ago, instead of waiting until the weekend and when Yukie returned to Tokyo to find a chance to observe and test her Case.

Regarding Keigo Atobe's question, Xue Zhi has been immune to the relationship between his younger brothers these days.

Yes, another reason for the frequent phone calls from the brothers is that they discovered that half of the property under the name of the sister had suddenly disappeared.

If Xuezhi hadn't made it clear that it was her own decision, and the younger brothers hadn't found out that she had been coerced, hypnotized, or possessed supernatural powers, they might have called the police.

Xuezhi: "..."

Who would have thought that there would be such sequelae when using supernatural powers?

Either way, being able to redeem is a good thing.

Xuezhi could only complain about the supernatural ability while patiently explaining it to relatives and friends.

Of course, when explaining it to my younger brothers, I have to make it clear, anyway, they all know her supernatural ability.

Xuezhi knew that her younger brothers were very worried about the adverse effects of the side effects of supernatural powers on her.So I didn't hide it, and explained it clearly to them.

But Keigo Atobe, a friend who doesn't know much about her supernatural ability, talks too much but just adds to the trouble.

So Xuezhi considered for a moment and withdrew some key information.Such as love and redemption.

In this regard, Keigo Atobe actually found out that she was hiding something.But after he was sure that she was fine and not forced, he didn't pursue the matter further.

He just asked: "Are you still short of money? Not enough to find me."

Xuezhi: "It's not necessary, Asahina's family is not bankrupt yet."

……

After finishing the previous topic, there was a brief silence in the carriage.

Atobe seemed to break the silence unintentionally: "I heard that the Akashi family wants to marry the Asahina family."

Xuezhi looked at him in surprise: "You are too behind in the news, aren't you?"

A question mark slowly appeared above Keigo Atobe's head.

He was sure that he had absolute first-hand news—this news was inferred based on his recent cooperation with the Akashi Foundation and his understanding of Akashi Seijuro—the kind that the Akashi family did not release.

"Did the Akashi family reach an agreement with the Asahina family secretly?" Keigo Atobe raised his guard.

Originally, he was just trying to test Xuezhi's attitude, but he didn't expect such a development.

Xuezhi didn't know that Keigo Atobe's thoughts had changed so much in such a short period of time.

She said with a smile: "The change of rights in the Akashi family is almost complete, there is no need for a marriage, maybe even the news of the previous marriage is a cover."

Atobe Keigo blinked, realizing that he seemed to have misunderstood just now.

He keenly found the loophole in Xuezhi's words, "It was only rumored that the Akashi family had the intention of marrying, not the Asahina family."

"So when Akashi Seijuro took over the Akashi Foundation, he made it clear to Yukie?"

Atobe Keigo clenched the hand that was rubbing the steering wheel and then slowly loosened it.

Fortunately, according to Xuezhi's current attitude, Akashi Seijuro was obviously rejected.

Atobe Keigo didn't know for a while whether he should regret being preempted by Akashi Seijuro, or be thankful that he had carefully chosen to make a decision before making a move.

Anyway, the result is always good.

Akashi Seijuro was rejected, but Keigo Atobe still has a chance.

Atobe Keigo carefully hid his thoughts, and said with a smile, "You're right."

He could actually understand Akashi's thoughts.

Akashi probably wants Xue Zhi to know that he likes her, instead of misunderstanding that he has other purposes, and he just married her for profit.

Knowing this, Atobe Keigo became more wary of Akashi Seijuro, who was on the verge of making a comeback.

Atobe: "I have to find a way to trouble Akashi. Since I was too busy a while ago, I will always be too busy."

Keigo Atobe's vigilance is indeed justified.

Because when he was thinking about how to make a decision before making a move, Xuezhi's heart was not at peace.

In Xuezhi's mind, the conversation with Akashi at the banquet before suddenly popped up for some reason.

"Then... I wish you happiness?"

"If the marriage partner is Asahina."

And at the end of that banquet, Akashi Seijuro smiled helplessly and dotingly and said, "Okay, then I'll think of a way."

After that, Akashi Seijuro was busy with the affairs of the consortium, so he didn't appear in front of Xue Zhi very much, and he didn't send messages or make phone calls much, and his words were not out of line.

She didn't take Akashi Seijuro's last words seriously.

If it is true what Keigo Atobe said...

Xuezhi closed her eyes, and the back of Zhongyuan Zhongye turned and left appeared in front of her eyes.

This figure gradually overlapped with the figure of Akashi Seijuro turning around and leaving at the banquet.

"I feel like I'm about to lose another friend."

Xuezhi thought pessimistically, her heart was full of melancholy.

What she didn't realize was that when she regained her courage, when she faced this possibility, her heart was no longer as heavy as before.

"Forget it, I'm so tired, I don't want to think about it anymore." Xuezhi thought lazily, "Soldiers will block you, water will cover you with earth."

The two of them had their own concerns, and the carriage returned to silence again.

……

On the afternoon of the second day after Yukie returned to Tokyo, an unexpected visitor came to the Pavilion of Dawn.

"Sister, Brother Zun is here to look for you, get up quickly." The eleventh younger brother Yujie called her to get up from outside the door.

During his wake-up service in a low voice but tirelessly, Xuezhi, who had slept until one in the afternoon, suddenly lay on the bed and opened his eyes.

01:01 was displayed on the screen of the mobile phone, and the thick curtains that were replaced after it turned cold made the room still dark.

During the dazed time when she just woke up, Xuezhi thought it was one o'clock in the morning.

But she quickly realized that the kind and obedient Yusuke couldn't call her in the middle of the night.

"Ah, I don't want to get up." Xuezhi tucked Lian into the quilt, wanting to just continue sleeping like this.

But Yusuke's soft voice still rang outside the door.

Xuezhi got out of the bed, pouted and muttered: "Really, what kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into Li Yusuke to let Yusuke help him like this."

Finally got up.After all, it's really late.

If you stay in bed again, Yusuke is not the only one, but also calls her through the door.

She was afraid that she would never be able to afford it again, so the younger brothers would use the spare key to open the door of her room, and then help her dress, wash, make up and make up a one-stop service.

The picture was so beautiful that she didn't dare to think about it.

So she got up obediently.

It's been a week, and Zhou Fangzun doesn't seem to have changed much.

Xuezhi found unexpectedly that she missed him a little bit, only a little bit.

Obviously, he hadn't thought of the name Zhou Fangzun for the whole week before.

Well, I still think about it occasionally.

I just thought it would be great if Zun was my partner, then I could leave all the tasks to him.

Because of this, Xuezhi felt somewhat guilty when facing Zhou Fangzun, even though Zhou Fangzun didn't know what she was thinking.

"Cough..." Xuezhi coughed a little uncomfortably, and asked him, "What do you want me to do?"

According to her past experience, as long as Zhou Fangzun came to her, he either had something to do, or... pretended to have something to do when nothing happened - and then used a completely unimportant matter as a cover.

Because of this, Xuezhi often complained to Izumo Kusanagi about Zhou Fangzun's hypocrisy, arrogance and so on.

Thinking of this, Xuezhi was in a trance: "It turns out that respecting him was already so obvious at that time."

It was because she was too slow, she never discovered Zhou Fangzun's intentions.

Only when I think about it now, I realize that everything has traces to follow.

Zhou Fangzun didn't know about Xuezhi's series of thoughts.

He seriously explained to her why he came here: he found that his supernatural power was a bit strange recently, and he came to her because he wanted to borrow the Dresden slate in her hand to see if the problem with his supernatural power was related to the Dresden slate .

Xuezhi had no doubt about him, and untied the guard that she hung around her neck and handed it to Zhou Fangzun.

Last time, because the Dresden slate awakened her gift of supernatural power, after she woke up in the hospital, she strung the guard containing the stone flakes made of the Dresden slate into a necklace and wore it around her neck.

I don't know if it was a psychological reason, but since then, she felt that no matter what she did, everything went smoothly.

Xuezhi also hopes that this good luck can help Zhou Fangzun.

She was full of anticipation, but she didn't notice Zhou Fangzun's unnatural trembling at the moment of touching the fingertips when Zhou Fangzun took Yushou from her hands.

Zhou Fangzun lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and the pad of his thumb lightly stroked the surface of the stone flake.

Xuezhi sat beside her and breathed lightly so as not to disturb Zhou Fangzun.

Her eyes were unconsciously attracted by the two beards on his forehead.She specifically asked Shitu Duo Liang who designed this hairstyle, and learned that Zhou Fangzun's peculiar bangs and mustaches are called dragon beards.

Blinking her eyes, she felt that this title was very domineering and regal.

It is very suitable for Zhou Fangzun.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Fangzun woke up from his contemplation.

He raised his head, met Shang Xuezhi's engrossed gaze, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Want to touch it?" He looked at Xuezhi and asked.

Xuezhi blinked: "Hey!"
