Chapter 64: A Troubled Heart
The next morning, Yafeng arrived at the tennis court of Qingxue Tennis Club and saw Niji and Hisami chatting happily, which reminded her of the figure that flashed in her mind yesterday.
"Yafeng, you're here." Yumi was the first to notice Yafeng standing at the door in a daze.
Under Kumi's call, Yafeng withdrew his thoughts and opened a brilliant smile to her: "Kumi, how did you come over?"
"I've come looking for Yafeng."
"What's up?"
"Me and Cheng Mei want to invite Ya Feng to watch a movie over the weekend."
"Hehe, okay." Yafeng smiled and agreed, but in her heart she despised herself a little. Rumi treated her as such a good friend, yet how could she have thought that she liked the person Rumi liked?
"Hehe, Yafeng is in high spirits today." Niji suddenly chimed in with a non-sequitur.
Yah Feng was taken aback, then understood what Zhou Shi meant and smiled: "Yes, eating well, sleeping well, naturally the spirit is good. When has Zhou Shi ever seen me in a bad mood? Or is it that Zhou Shi himself is not in a good mood?"
Fēi Yǎ'ér smiled and said, "Yes, Yǎ Fēng has always been in high spirits."
Hisashi listened to their nonsense in between the two of them and couldn't make sense of it at all, fortunately Tao Cheng intervened.
"Yafeng, it's a pity you didn't come to the celebration banquet yesterday. You have no idea how many delicious dishes Hekou made for us."
"Nah, nah, Ah Tao was very happy with what he ate yesterday."
"That's right, yesterday...". Tao Cheng La Ya Feng said while walking towards the stadium, talking about yesterday's delicious food.
Watching Yafeng and Taocheng's distant backs, Niji felt a little uneasy in his heart. He didn't know why, but he always felt that Yafeng was somehow different now. Hisumi, on the other hand, gazed at Niji with infatuation, then suggested: "Shūsuke brother, how about you come watch a movie with us this weekend?"
Bu'er fell silent for a moment before responding: "Alright."
"Ah, great! I knew Brother Zhou would never refuse me."
Hisami jumped up excitedly, while Niji stared at her with a gloomy face.
Yah Feng looked at this scene from afar and felt a pang in her heart for some unknown reason.
When he returned home in the evening and told her that Traces would be leaving tomorrow, Yafeng's heart was even more confused.
"What's wrong, Yafeng? You seem to be in a heavy mood. Are you reluctant to leave the Traces Department?" Ninxu teased.
"Ah, it's really hard to part with, but Yu Shi Gege must be even more reluctant, after all, you two are the official CP."
He curled up the corner of his mouth and was speechless in his heart. Why couldn't he take advantage of Ya Feng? Not to mention that it's a set phrase.
"Yu-shi ge-ge, I want to go back to Kanagawa tomorrow."
He was taken aback for a moment before he realized that Yafeng was going to find Sanada, and he couldn't help but feel a bit bitter in his heart. It seemed that he was still an unqualified brother after all.
The next day, Yafeng asked for leave and returned to Lihai University campus, which he had left for more than a month.
Watching the familiar figure struggling on the court, Yafeng's chaotic heart gradually calmed down.
"Yafeng, what are you doing here?" Chihaya, who had been kept behind by the teacher to do some extra homework, saw Yafeng staring blankly at the people inside when he arrived at the court.
"Hey, Xiao Hai, what a coincidence!" Yafeng greeted with a silly grin.
Qie Yuan looked at Ya Feng, who was clearly not feeling well, and pondered Ya Feng's abnormality with his not-too-bright brain, while the conversation on this side also attracted the attention of the crowd on the court.
"Puff, how did Ya Feng suddenly come back? Did she miss us?" The white fox was the first to run over and ask.
"Yes, I really miss my brothers." Yafeng smiled with a flower-like face.
"Heh heh, but why do I feel like something's a bit off, huh, Genichirou?" The goddess calmly brought Yafuu's abnormality to the forefront.
"The probability that Yafeng will come is 0, the probability that something will happen is 90%, and the probability that he can't explain the reason is 50%." Liu said calmly with his notebook in hand.
Looking at Sanada's increasingly dark face, Yafeng sighed in his heart. He shouldn't have come back. How could he forget the few clever people in his own family?
"Is Yafeng so heartbroken because of a lost love?" Ren Wang joked casually.
Yahiko's heart skipped a beat, had he fallen in love? But with who? Tsubasa or Niji? Why would it be Niji? He was Kumiko's crush, how could he have fallen for someone Kumiko liked?
Looking at Yafeng's obviously distressed and surprised expression, everyone in Rikidō felt a jump in their hearts. Could it be that Yafeng had really lost her love? Then who was the person she liked?
Sanada's face was no longer black, his whole body emitting an astonishing aura of anger. The people of Satomi were all on edge, ready to flee at any moment. Yukimura also couldn't smile anymore, wondering who dared to harm their little princess.
When Yajing walked out of her own thoughts, she saw the solemn expressions of the people from Lihai University and the dark face of her elder brother, which could be compared to Judge Bao.
"Brother Gen'ichiro." Yafeng called out timidly.
"Who is that?" Sanada asked coldly.
"Who?" Yafeng asked inexplicably.
Sanada's face turned even darker, and Niou asked on his behalf: "It was the guy who made you lose your love."
"Who said I've lost love?" Yafeng was even more at a loss.
"You're not heartbroken, so why do you look so down just because your senior said something?" Chi Yuan's face was full of disdain.
Watching Chihiro despise herself, Yafeng was very helpless and reflected on herself. Then she became even more determined that something was wrong with her, but she wouldn't let Chihiro off the hook for despising her.
"Hey, Xiao Hai, one day without a fight and you're already getting out of hand, huh? I've only been gone for a few days and you've forgotten who's the boss, huh?"
Looking at Yafeng Chiyuan who had returned to normal, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, but didn't say anything.
"Hehe, Yafeng is really domineering, but I really didn't know that Yafeng was the boss." said Yukimura with a smile.
Yah Feng's heart skipped a beat, and in his excitement, he forgot that the goddess was still there. Calling him "Old Big Brother" in front of her wasn't asking for death? Yah Feng's face changed, and with a flattering expression, he said to Xing Cun: "Where did you get that from? Jing Shi Gege is the real Old Big Brother, how could I be? I was just teasing Xiao Hai."
"Really? Is that so?"
"That's it." Yafeng nodded like a drumstick.
Kenzan's pleasant appearance greatly improved Sugimura's mood.
Just as Yafeng thought the crisis was over, Sanada pulled Yafeng off Kōjirō's body and held him by his side.
Koumura saw Sanada like that, and couldn't help but feel a little jealous towards his good friend. He didn't think that this guy would be so eaten up by jealousy that he'd turn on himself. Who knows what will happen in the future if Yafuu really marries this guy - will he end up tearing her apart? But Yafuu saw the situation and thought something entirely different. She just thought Sanada was mad at her for clinging to Koumura too tightly, and that Koumura was eaten up by jealousy because Sanada had pulled him away from her. All you can say is that fujoshi are invincible.
The rest of the people, the clever ones saw the subtle situation now and knew that they couldn't afford to offend their deputy minister at home. Those who reacted a bit slower also knew that it was very subtle now and couldn't afford to offend anyone on the side.
Yah Feng's misconception directly led her to once again grasp the tiger's whiskers.
"Genichiro brother, you guys go practice ball, can I borrow Kaito to accompany me for a game?" asked Yafeng with a small smile.
Sanada's swift slash came, and Yafeng immediately ducked an inch lower. Then the Emperor's sharp gaze turned to Kirihara, who was about to cry out in pain but couldn't, and had no choice but to seek help from others. However, everyone else didn't dare to pull a tiger's whiskers again, so they ignored Kirihara's pleading eyes.
Yah Feng still didn't realize and continued: "I just want to play a game."
Sanada withdrew his gaze and struggled slightly before saying to Yukimura: "I'll take Yagyu back home first, we can make up for today's training tomorrow."
Koumura nodded, and Sanada took the elegant breeze still in the clouds back home.
