"We can't keep playing chess forever."
Luo Chen muttered to himself.
Click!
The bathroom door was suddenly opened.
Luo Chen turned his head in surprise.
Kasumigaoka Utaha, wrapped in a bathrobe and holding two pairs of black stockings in her other hand, wore a mischievous smile: "Oh? Even from a hundred meters away, I can already smell the shameless thoughts emanating from Tatsuki-kun... and his lewd gaze!"
Luo Chen twitched his lips, rolled his eyes at Kasumigaoka Utaha speechlessly, and said, "This bathroom is at most only 5 meters long, right?"
"Is that the point?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked with a half-smile.
Luo Chen was taken aback, stood up, walked over, hugged Kasumigaoka Utaha, and whispered in her ear, "I'm leaving tomorrow, and I suddenly feel so reluctant to part with you, senpai."
Kasumigaoka Utaha's lips curled slightly, finally revealing a satisfied smile. At this moment, her mood seemed to suddenly relax completely.
She whispered, "My preparations today weren't in vain. Let's try something new later!"
Luo Chen: "???"
……
...
The next day.
Kasumigaoka Utaha left the hotel quite early.
When Luo Chen woke up, there was only a sticky note on the bedside table and the pair of socks that the two of them had used the night before.
The sticky note read: Waiting for you to come back to Tokyo! If you don't come back within ten days, don't blame me for stomping on you!
Luo Chen rubbed his temples, feeling both amused and exasperated.
Even though he's already gone, he's still so sarcastic.
He sighed softly, put his hands behind his head, and stared blankly at the ceiling for a while.
A phone call came in!
Luo Chen answered in surprise: "Hello?"
"Young...Young Master!!"
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded hurried and nervous, but Luo Chen immediately recognized it as a call from Aoyama Nanami.
"Nanami?" Luo Chen asked, somewhat puzzled. "Is there something you need?"
"Young Master, um, um, staying out all night is a very bad habit. Aren't you coming back today?" Aoyama Nanami stammered.
"Ah...?" Luo Chen asked, his face flushing slightly.
Damn, I almost forgot!
I told Aoyama Nanami just the day before yesterday that I would definitely go home at night, just a little later.
Now look what's happened, it's already the second day!
In other words, he has been staying out all night for two nights already.
Having been away from home for so long, and having left with Kasumi Akiyuu before, who knows where Aoyama Nanami and the others will go now?
She probably already imagined herself and Kasumi Akiyo as...
Thinking of this, Luo Chen touched the tip of his nose.
No, even if Aoyama Nanami and the others really think that way, it doesn't seem like they're slandering me!
I've really been having a wonderful time with Xia Zhi Qiu Shi Yu these past two days, so much so that I don't even want to go home.
"Young Master?" Aoyama Nanami called out hesitantly when he saw that Luo Chen had suddenly stopped talking.
"Oh, I've been busy these past two days with the book signing event. A fan just came looking for me, sorry."
Luo Chen spoke without batting an eye, not caring whether Aoyama Nanami believed him or not, and continued, "I'll be going home soon, and I'll bring you gifts from the autograph session."
"Ah!... Oh, okay!" Aoyama Nanami nodded hurriedly.
After hanging up the phone, Luo Chen didn't stay at the hotel any longer.
Of course, having just told a lie, it was necessary to cover it up when he got home. So, Luo Chen casually picked up several physical copies of the already published "Battle Through the Heavens".
……
It was supplied to the imperial kitchen.
"Miss Yukinoshita, the young master said he'll be back soon..."
Aoyama Nanami stood at the door of Yukino's house, holding a phone in her hand, speaking softly but earnestly to the girl standing in front of her.
She didn't actually know Yukino Yukinoshita, and had no impression of her at all.
However, two nights ago, Luo Chen specifically called her and told her to send some sushi to Yukino Yukinoshita, and specifically stated that she should not disturb her.
Clearly, this shows that the beautiful and excessively cute girl with long, straight black hair holds a very important place in Luo Chen's heart!
Unexpectedly, Aoyama Nanami couldn't help but feel a little sour and complain in his heart: The young master is good in every way, but he's just too much of a womanizer!
No, no! Although she was just a maid temporarily hired by Luo Chen, she had to consider Mashiro's feelings at Sakura Manor.
In the future, she still needs to be more careful about the unwanted romantic advances around Luo Chen.
Yes! It was all for that silly child, Mashiro!!
As for now.
The reason she called Luo Chen was, of course, not because she took the initiative, nor did she have the courage.
Instead, it's this Miss Yukishita in front of me!
Just today, she suddenly came up to me, smiled and asked if I could help her make a phone call to ask when Luo Chen would be back.
Yukino Yukinoshita's smile left a very deep impression on her at the time... because it was really scary!
She was smiling, but there was no trace of kindness on her face; instead, it was rather cold.
Isn't that scary?
Ah! Here it comes!
That smile appeared again!
When Aoyama Nanami saw that Yukinoshita Yukino had regained her expression, he immediately tensed up and became somewhat nervous.
"Heh~! A book signing event?"
"Last night, I was dragged out by some random woman, and ended up not coming home for a day and two nights. Is she just trying to fob us off with such a lazy excuse as a book signing?"
Yukino Yukinoshita spoke softly, then raised her head, her eyes clear and bright, and asked in a calm tone, "Does Miss Aoyama know if that guy has been writing any novels lately?"
"This, this, this..." Aoyama Nanami scratched her head, and seeing Yukino Yukinoshita's expression gradually turn cold again, she gritted her teeth and said loudly and pathetically, "Of course I know!!"
Chapter 428 Aoyama Nanami is shocked: He actually wrote a novel!!
When Luo Chen returned to the Gongyufan family, he was immediately confronted by two people with an odd atmosphere as soon as he entered the door.
Actually, the gate to the Imperial Kitchen was quite far from the residence.
So, at this moment, the two people with the strange atmosphere were standing in the courtyard directly opposite the door... and the reason for it seemed obvious!
"Ok?"
"Wait for me?"
Luo Chen asked with a surprised smile.
Standing behind Yukino Yukinoshita, Aoyama Nanami desperately tried to signal to Luo Chen with her eyes, implying that he should be careful!
Although, she really didn't want it to be like this.
But!
Damn dedication and professionalism!
She is now, after all, Luo Chen's maid... Just now, she shamelessly deceived Yukino Yukinoshita.
Then, Yukino Yukinoshita casually exposed her true colors.
Now! She's going to give Luo Chen a meaningful look again, which is really pathetic.
Aoyama Nanami sighed quietly to herself.
Luo Chen remained unfazed, his expression calm even as he saw her. He smiled and looked directly at the aloof Yukino Yukinoshita, feigning surprise: "Yukino-kun?"
What are you holding in your hand?
Before Luo Chen could ask, Yukino Yukino preemptively spoke, her cool gaze fixed on the book in Luo Chen's hand.
"Oh! A book."
Luo Chen smiled, stepped forward, and handed one book each to Yukino Yukinoshita and Nanami Aoyama, saying, "I wrote it."
"what!……"
