Love Healing Manual

Chapter 97 Combat
"I'm too lazy to waste words with you. The fact that I'm willing to come here today to have a proper talk with you is enough to show my sincerity." Miyagi Suzuo lowered her cheeks.

She was the only person in the huge maid shop.

The heiress of the Yuanyang Company had booked the entire store, and the store was closed for the day. The manager tacitly allowed the two of them time to handle their private matters. After all, women understand each other's affairs even without saying them aloud; when they really want to deal with things, they do so behind closed doors.

Otherwise, it would be very unsightly to tear it apart, and it would be inconvenient for outsiders to see it.

Miyagi Suzuo believes that she has matured a lot after experiencing setbacks in the past few years; otherwise, her provocation of Kitagawa Ayane today would have been even more sharp and ruthless.

However, Ayane didn't show much emotion. She was curious to know what the other person was going to do, and of course, she wasn't afraid. Seeing the beautiful and elegant Suzuo, she didn't feel inferior. She might have felt that way before, but spending time with Rinze had significantly changed Ayane's perspective. She was beginning to understand how to live with composure and dignity.

Yesterday outside the classroom, Kitagawa Ayane realized that even the young lady before her was no different from Lin Ze; in that respect, they were completely equal. The only thing she needed to be concerned about was this: she wasn't a firefly, and this female classmate of Lin Ze wasn't the bright moon.

How dazzling this woman's brilliance is has nothing to do with her.

Not to mention, the other party made no attempt to hide their hostility towards her.

"I've known Lin Ze for many years and I know him very well. Don't blame me for being blunt, but you have absolutely no right to stand beside him... Of course, I won't make you give up just because of a few words. It's normal to like him; you're not the only girl in the class. This is a realistic world, and Tokyo is no exception. I'm sure you've experienced that after living here for several years, senior..."

As she spoke, Miyagi Suzuo took a card out of her coat pocket and walked up to Kitagawa Ayane.

"You've worked so hard for over two weeks, and you only earn 2200 yen per hour. Do you know how much money is in this card?" She blinked her big, bright eyes and said softly, "Fifteen million yen. That's the amount in the card."

As her words fell.

Even though Kitagawa Ayane was somewhat prepared and knew that the other party was a rich young lady, her expression still changed after hearing the number.

She couldn't help but purse her moist lips.

"What do you mean?" she asked, staring at Miyagi Suzuo.

"Disappear from Lin Ze's side from now on, and don't let me see the two of you together again. It's that simple," Miyagi Suzuo handed over the card, her voice incredibly sincere. "Then all this money will be yours. If you think it's not enough, I can give you some more. Do you think that's enough, senpai?"

Leaning down, Suzuo whispered in her ear.

The young lady is undoubtedly a gentle and multi-talented person.

A subtle sense of power enveloped Kitagawa Ayane, making her feel as if her entire body was being enveloped.

The other person seems to have a special magnetic field.

That's an innate confidence.

Kitagawa Ayane's hands were clasped together, her face lowered, making it impossible to see her expression, but her beautiful eyes flashed with a variety of complex emotions.

But no one expected it.

What came to her mind, however, had nothing to do with money, but rather an idea that was completely beyond Suzuo's expectations.

Regardless, the girl in front of me clearly loves Lin Ze... She went to great lengths to see another girl for him, even going to the trouble of meeting him at a maid cafe, and spending a large sum of money to drive away complete strangers—it was all completely unnecessary. Choosing a more tactful approach, bribing her with money, is far gentler than kidnapping and threatening her. Although I made some sarcastic remarks earlier, she is known for her straightforward personality.

In Japan, most people understand the social status of conglomerates; they represent true authority.

Kitagawa Ayane, an extremely ordinary and impoverished person, never thought she would have the opportunity to personally experience contact with the daughters of wealthy families. The only relatively wealthy person she knew was Murayama Kaoru.

So, Miyagi Suzuo and she were from completely different worlds, yet she condescended to take the initiative to find her.

The fact that this girl could casually take out so much money and give it to her like it was nothing suggests that she comes from a wealthy and influential family.

Most importantly, the other party genuinely cares about Lin Ze.

Kitagawa Ayane's dislike for Suzuo lessened somewhat.

"You like Lin Ze?" she asked curiously.

Unlike Miyagi's slightly girlish voice, Ayane's voice is magnetic; it's her natural voice, and it's quite pleasant to listen to.

"It's obvious, I've decided I won't marry anyone but him." Miyagi Suzuo said proudly when talking about this.

"So he doesn't like you?"

The words fell.

Miyagi Suzuo frowned immediately, looking at Ayane with a gloomy expression.

"No, our matter is complicated and has nothing to do with you."

“It’s strange that you came to me instead of taking the initiative to talk to him.”

“This is between the two of us women, it has nothing to do with men. If you’re a real woman, answer my question directly.” Lingxu couldn’t help but clench her fists.

That's a hefty fee, fifteen million yen!

Even though the other party was a young lady from a wealthy family, Kitagawa Ayane couldn't help but repeatedly check the number in her mind.

She had never seen so much money in her life.

Not a lie.

but.

Kitagawa Ayane, however, knew very well that money was incomparable to everything Lin Ze had given her during this time.

"Still hesitating?" Miyagi Suzuo looked into her eyes and asked doubtfully, "That's 15 million yen. The hourly wage for working at a maid cafe is already quite high, and only young and beautiful girls can earn that much money. Senior, forgive me for being blunt, but have you ever thought about how long you would need to work to earn the money in this card? I've calculated it for you. Assuming you work more than ten hours a week, it would take you 568 weeks, or nearly 4,000 days, to earn that much money."

To put it simply, Miyagi Suzuo's words were rather hurtful.

Ten years. From now on, Kitagawa Ayane will have to work at a maid cafe for ten years to earn enough money.

Just one sentence.

That will save you that time.

Miyagi Suzuo didn't believe that Kitagawa-senpai genuinely liked Lin Ze and was therefore unmoved by money. How could that be? The two had only known each other for a few months, so how could they have such a deep affection for each other?

Judging by common sense.

They probably just think they can gain more benefits, so they're making plans in their minds.

A hint of indifference crept into Miyagi Suzuo's gaze, and she even felt that the other party's inquiry about her attitude towards Lin Ze was merely to confirm whether they could maximize their interests.

There's nothing shameful about it; on the contrary, it's a choice only a smart person would make.

But what she didn't expect was that Kitagawa Ayane was indeed not moved.

"Let's sit down and talk," Ayane said softly.

"can."

in this way.

The two sat facing each other at a nearby table.

The money and card that Kitagawa Ayane was entitled to were all laid out on the table.

From this perspective...

The differences between the two women in various aspects are very obvious, and anyone can see the differences.

Kitagawa-senpai wore a simple shirt and trousers. Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders like a black waterfall. She had a face that was enough to make everyone who saw her unable to look away. She had fair skin and a figure that was not lacking in any aspect. Her long legs and slender waist were hidden under the loose shirt.

Every detail is perfect, showing the Creator's intention.

There's nothing out of place about her; she's like a girl straight out of an anime.

This was without any makeup. If she changed into a dress with long, straight black hair, she would be ranked in the top three in the entire University of Tokyo based on her appearance alone.

Miyagi Suzuo was fundamentally different from her. Her chestnut-brown hair and exquisite attire, even the hair clip on her side exuding nobility, and her skin as white as porcelain, made her slightly less robust than her senior, despite being younger. But such a girl, with her youthful charm, was meant to be a little more innocent to truly shine in the future. Her somewhat aloof demeanor was deliberate, and what was most striking were her long legs encased in black stockings. While Ayane-senpai's legs were already stunning, Suzuo's were simply perfect.

Even without shoes, Suzuo is already 171cm tall.

This actually creates a more aesthetically pleasing effect when paired with Lin Ze.

One can talk about aura.

Kitagawa Ayane is far too weak.

“Surviving in Tokyo is tough, and my senior is in debt. This money can solve all her current difficulties. As a graduate student, her studies should be more important, right? It would be putting the cart before the horse to let too many hardships interfere with her studies. There’s no reason to hesitate.”

Listening to Lingxu's tireless persuasion.

Kitagawa Ayane blinked and asked, "May I ask how to address you, junior?"

"Just call me Miyagi."

"Um, Miyagi-kun, I think you still don't understand the relationship between me and Lin Ze. Although I can't go into details, his importance to me is definitely beyond your original imagination. So... let's forget about this money."

“Thirty million yen,” Miyagi Suzuo said with a gloomy face.

Kitagawa Ayane simply shook her head slightly, offering no reply.

"Being too greedy is not a good thing. I'm telling you this politely because I respect you."

"To be honest, Miyagi-kun, I am very poor... but not to the point of being unable to live. However, without Lin Ze, I think I really cannot live..."

Ayane Kitagawa was not lying.

For her, Lin Ze is now equivalent to her life.

She was prepared to freefall and would go to the rooftop every now and then. But after meeting Lin Ze, her life changed from gray and bleak to colorful.

This is the most critical stage of treatment.

However, in Miyagi Suzuo's ears, Ayane's meaning was completely misunderstood.

Suzuo was taken aback at first, then her gaze turned to surprise. She frowned and stared at Ayane for a long while.

They even said they couldn't live without it...

After all that rambling and talking, what's with this whole "true love is priceless" drama?

It's incredibly boring.

"Do you really want me to be more blunt?" Suzuo said coldly.

"Junior, I didn't shut you up, did I?"

"You don't understand him at all. You don't understand Lin Ze. You don't know what kind of person he is. And now you're saying you can't live without him? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds to me?" She stood up, slamming her hands on the table, her pent-up emotions finally exploding. "Do you even deserve to say that? Do you think you deserve to say such things? Lin Ze has such high medical talent. He excels wherever he goes and is destined to stand on a bigger stage. For a man, the most important thing is not a ridiculous romance but his future! And how much time that should have been spent on important matters has he wasted because of you?"

She said sternly, "You're glued to him every moment—morning, noon, afternoon—have you ever considered his feelings at all? You keep saying you can't live without him, do you even deserve to say that? Before demanding sacrifices from others, think about what you've given up! You're just wasting everything others have, what gives you the right to do that?!"
