"Jinghua?"

Kon Ooka looked at Shizuka Ikenami.

"this..."

After a moment's hesitation, Ikeba Shizuka told the truth:

"Hongye went to look for you just now!"

"what?!"

A bitter smile appeared on Ooka Kanon's pretty face as she muttered to herself:

"Could it be that she..."

"There was a drone overhead just now—"

Xia Ye said:

"Perhaps that was manipulated by Momiji..."

"what?"

Ooka Kanon's delicate body trembled:

"When?"

"When you're most engaged!"

"most..."

Kaoru Ooka's pretty face flushed slightly.

Doesn't that mean that Hongye saw him at his most vulnerable?

No wonder she seemed so distracted just now!

It turns out he was provoked!

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Ooka Momiji looked at Natsume with annoyance in her beautiful eyes. This scoundrel was so capable that he must have discovered the drone as soon as it appeared, but he didn't tell her. He obviously had a blatantly sinister intention!

"You seem to be enjoying yourself so much—"

Xia Ye shrugged, seemingly helpless:

"I feel a little reluctant!"

"Enjoy what you want!"

Ooka Kaon angrily punched Natsume.

She didn't really mind discussing such explicit topics in front of Jinghua and He Ye, since those two were practically her own people. However, Hongye—

"Hongye is my own daughter, and you're deliberately provoking her like this. Even if you have some ulterior motives, can't you take things one step at a time?"

"Cough cough!"

Xia Ye coughed awkwardly and looked at Jing Hua and He Ye, pleading for help with her eyes!

Why are you looking at us?

He Ye pouted and snorted softly:

"You're the one who's wrong about this. Do you think Koyo is like me, Ran, and Sonoko, girls you've tainted with all sorts of colors? She's pure and innocent. You suddenly provoked her like that. I think your wishful thinking is going to be ruined!"

"It's not a question of who's right or wrong now—"

Ikeba Shizuka's eyes softened:

"The key now is to quickly calm down Momiji and prevent her from getting stuck in a rut. How should I put it? Although girls like Kazuha, Ran, and Sonoko are... well, a little more experienced than ordinary girls, they are all good kids. I hope Momiji can grow up as healthily as they do."

Experienced?!

Kazuha made a dead fish-like face.

Aunt Jinghua, you might as well just say we're not pure at all, why be so subtle...

"Jinghua, you're right—"

Ooka Kanon rolled her eyes at Natsume:

"I'm going back to find Hongye. You all stay here and watch the fireworks!"

"Don't you need me to explain?"

Xia Ye asked.

"How do you explain that?"

Ooka Kanon said speechlessly:

"I'm sorry, I slept with your mother, but it wasn't intentional. Please forgive me."

"Pfft——!"

Kazuha quickly covered her mouth!

Lady Xiangyin imitated Xia Ye so well that she laughed out loud before realizing that it wasn't quite right...

"Stop making things worse!"

Ōoka Kon adjusted her kimono, still feeling uneasy, and looked at Ikenami Shizuka, asking:

"Jinghua, is something wrong?"

There's a slight dampness at the hem...

Ikenami Shizuka pointed to it; because it was a black kimono, even though the mark was in the folds, it was still quite noticeable.

"And the waist area—"

"It's a little wrinkled."

Kazuha pointed seriously to her lower back. The kimono, which had been cinched at the waist, seemed to have been pulled up quite a bit by some force, resulting in many creases. And, perhaps it was just her imagination, Kazuha felt that the marks looked like the handprints of some villain...

"And hair—"

Xia Ye also offered a reminder:

"Two of the hairpins are inserted in slightly off-center; it looks a bit awkward..."

"How dare you say that!"

Ooka Kanon pinched his waist hard:

"Back then you insisted on pulling it out to play with it, and after you were done, you wouldn't put it back in properly. Now you're pretending to be a good person!"

"They were always hovering in front of me, making it hard for me to concentrate... cough cough, so you can't blame me for pulling them out!"

Xia Ye's act of getting the benefit but still acting innocent made Jinghua and He Ye roll their eyes. This guy really has a deep skill in annoying people!

"I'm too lazy to care about you!"

Kon Ooka couldn't do anything with him, so she looked at Shizuka Ikenami and Kazuha:

"Jinghua, Heye, I'm going back now!"

"Yes, talk to Hongye properly~"

Goodbye, Aunt Xiangyin~

...

"Are you feeling smug?"

After Ooka Kanon left, Kazuha poked Natsuha's waist:

"Doing bad things with Aunt Xiangyin—"

"But Hongye just watched from the sidelines!"

"Your fetish is really perverted, you scoundrel!"

"Cough cough!"

Xia Ye took the opportunity to grasp He Ye's small hand and play with it in her palm, a mischievous smile on her face:

"I'm just that kind of bad guy, and besides, you're all already on this pirate ship. There's no way you can escape now, hahaha!"

"Humph!"

He Ye Jiao snorted: 327

"We can't escape, but Hongye hasn't fallen yet. Be careful, or they might get scared and stay far away from you. What will you do then?"

"What am I supposed to do? Just let it be!"

Xia Ye stroked He Ye's soft fingertips, saying nonchalantly:

"Actually, if it weren't for Kazuha and Momiji making a bet about me, I really wouldn't be interested in Momiji at all. It's only because of Kanon that I'm interested... So even if she runs away, I probably won't be too— um!"

Kazuha covered Natsuha's mouth.

She knew that Xia Ye was still somewhat interested in Hong Ye, but it wasn't the same as when they first met—the kind of look in her eyes that seemed to want to devour her. And—

"Xia Ye, you can't talk to girls like that. Unless you don't want to provoke them at all, it's not appropriate to say such things!"

"I know~"

Xia Ye gently kissed He Ye's delicate palm, and after she released her hand, she looked at He Ye with tender eyes and said:

"My Kazuha is such a kind little angel!"

"Oh?"

Although Natsume's affectionate words warmed Kazuha's heart, she still couldn't resist being a little mischievous:

"Didn't you say Xiaolan was your angel?"

"How did I become your angel too?"

"You have so many angels!"

"That's right!"

Xia Ye spoke confidently, then added with a wicked grin, "Besides, angels have a certain chance of becoming fallen angels. Aren't you scared?"

"Hate!"

Kazuha, of course, knew what that scoundrel Natsuha meant.

Compared to their former pure and innocent selves and Xiaolan, aren't we now just fallen angels tainted by "evil"?

Is it possible that this guy actually enjoys causing angels to fall?
