Chapter 61: The Matter at the Dance Party

  The great car finally drove into the grounds of the Kanemoto family's home in a smooth process, and before entering the high walls that almost seemed to block out the sky, a row of people wearing black suits appeared to guide the way. They also used high-tech search machines to move around the body to prevent some lawless elements from bringing weapons into the party.

  I held Min Ye's hand as we got out of the car (apparently this is called etiquette), and Xiaogui stood on his other side holding his hand, if you looked from afar most people would think it was a family. If not for my stiff expression... uh, to be honest, I'm really not used to such situations. In the past when going to mom's friend's house for dinner parties (small scale) I wasn't that nervous, this time... it involved mom's safety... so there was a bit of...

  (I don't know if everyone still remembers, in the previous post it was written that when Cha went to attend a small banquet, almost beat down a child's jj at the opponent's house... This person is named Lin Fenghe, who had previously fought with Xiaocha and suffered a crushing defeat)

  After entering the high and exaggerated walls, the first thing that caught my eye was a row of cherry blossom trees that started from the entrance and stretched out endlessly, even beyond what I could see. I don't know what kind of scientific technology they used to make them bloom in this season... The cherry blossoms dancing in the air were even more beautiful than the scenes in movies... I admit that if someone proposed or was proposed to under such scenery, both parties would be happy until death, but unfortunately, my mind is now preoccupied with thoughts of where to hide mom's stuff... basement, partition wall, or some other special place? Ah... this is really complicated... Looking at those scattered cherry blossoms has messed up my train of thought, I really want to grab a large blower and blow them all away.

  Slowly following the footsteps of the guide through this path strewn with cherry blossoms, what appears before one's eyes is the legendary "Zero no Gen'ei Castle" of the Katsuragi family, which has stood firm and majestic for hundreds of years without collapsing despite being washed away. It is said that during Japan's war of aggression, this castle was hit by several aerial missiles in multiple places, but except for some weak walls, other parts did not break, truly solid as a rock!

  "That girl is so beautiful......" Just as I was carefully examining the castle, I suddenly heard some nobles behind me discussing a beauty, and quickly turned my head to follow their line of sight to find... where, where is the beauty, I want to see too!!!

  Uh... looking left and right for a while... my mouth twitched and I stood there stupidly, those nobles seemed to be pointing in our direction... and here except for me being the only girl, it seems like there aren't any other girls?! They couldn't possibly be talking about me, could they?! Depressed... indeed -_-! People rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold decorations...

  "They... seem to have dressed you up a bit too beautifully, huh." Min Ye whispered softly in my ear as he brushed past my hair. (Author's note: If viewed from another angle, others might think that he had just kissed her earlobe.)

  On the other side, Min Ye's little brother, who was holding onto the corner of Min Ye's clothes, still had a cute smile on his face...

  I shot him a impatient glance and asked in a low voice: "Cut the crap, my mother..." Before I could finish speaking, his fingers covered my mouth: "This isn't the time to talk about that, now that we're here, let's just enjoy ourselves..."

  Enjoy?! What's there to enjoy about this place... it's been hit by Japanese missiles so many times already! I don't know if it's a problem with the architect or the castle itself... thinking back to that village in Zhejiang, Zhuge Bagua Village was even damaged by a single missile (it's been perfectly restored now), and this place can be hit multiple times?!

  "BOSS!!!!!!!" A shrill cry suddenly came from several meters behind and pierced my eardrum. My mouth twitched as I turned around to see a few younger brothers who had drunk together before, standing not far away in their neat suits. The most annoying thing was that because of their "BOSS", all the people within 300 meters were attracted over.

  "It's really Big Brother!!!!!!" They stood there stupidly for a long time before finally gathering the courage to say.

  "But how did Big Brother end up dressing like this? Is he here to act?"

  "Wow, Boss really looks beautiful dressed up as a woman..."

  "Even the chest area is stuffed a bit too big, really is an amazing makeup master!"

  "What is Lao Da doing here? He seems to be holding hands with the president of the student union!"

  "I know, it must be that our president thinks Lao Da looks pretty so he's forcing Lao Da to pretend to be his woman."

  "So it was..."

  Those... those guys!!!! I really want to... beat them up severely!!!!! What's with their chests being so big?! As a woman, mine are of course bigger (Author: Are they really that big???? Is it just the designer using some trickery———!!!)!!!! Ugh, I really want to punch someone ahhhhhhh!!!!

  As I stepped into the grand "Zero Genmori Castle", the splendor inside was truly something I had never seen or heard of before. It turns out that the Kanetsuki family is really that wealthy... Look, look at the wide spiral staircase across from us, it's covered in a carpet that looks like a field of blooming snowflakes from afar... Look, look at the high-end tableware on those tables to our right, they're all made of pure gold! And look up at the chandelier on the ceiling! It's crystal clear and sparkling like thin ice cut from the mountains! The mosaic artwork is truly dizzying...

  Seeing me so excited, Min Ye smiled faintly and said: "You don't talk too much here, I'll go over and greet our family members first." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head to instruct his younger brother: "Lan, take good care of her, I will explain to Father that you didn't come to ask for permission but ran to my villa."

  The little guy's face turned pale and nodded slightly.

  I took a sneaky look at him and thought to myself: Wow, I thought this little devil was always living in that villa, but it turns out he also snuck out of the house, haha...

  It seems like he felt my gaze, the little guy lifted his head and stared at me with his eyes that were originally bright but now had a cold glint: "I won't let you have brother!"

  "Hmm... this little devil... it turns out that from the first time we met, he had already put me in his enemy category, I really didn't expect it, he can pretend to be so good... and even affectionately call me big sister... I reckon when I just woke up, he was pinching my nose to prevent me from breathing—＿—?!"

  "I'm not interested in your brother, okay. I have people I need to protect and take care of... just like you want to protect your brother, I also have someone I must protect at all costs, even if it means risking my own life... so, don't worry, I won't steal your brother away from you." I said seriously to the little demon in front of me.

  That little demon was taken aback at first, but immediately turned his face back: "I don't believe what you're saying! Brother is such a perfect person, there are too many people who want to take him away! I won't let him go to you, this big liar who only knows how to talk sweet!"

  Ming Ye... is a perfect person... Does this little devil not know how sinister his great brother actually is?! He even uses the word "great" to describe him... Poor "great", I know you're being wronged.

  I bent down and gently tapped the little ghost's skull, my tone heavier than before: "What I hate most is unreasonable children making a fuss. If you really care about your brother, you should be guarding him at all times, watching over him. Since there are so many people trying to snatch him away, why don't you worry about others who might snatch him? Standing here watching me... what if someone snatches your brother away right now, don't cry."

  The little ghost was knocked back several steps, clutching his head in anger. He originally wanted to scold me, but when he heard that Min Ye might be taken away by others, he immediately dropped his hand and turned around to run and find him. As he ran, he turned his head and said to me: "Don't move, don't leave! Otherwise, brother will get angry!"

  I'm humming in my heart, what does it have to do with your brother getting angry... The reason I'm standing here and not leaving is that I still need to wait for him to give me the blueprint and method to save my mother. Otherwise, do you think I really like standing here motionless?

  One hand holding up her skirt to prevent it from being trampled, she turned around and looked around the layout of the grand hall of the castle. En, wow!!! There is a floor-to-ceiling window, which looks even better than the one in the Huixiang Department... Oh, wow!!! Is that a crystal table? The roasted duck on top looks so delicious... Eh, wow!!! That, that, that is a glazed platform, right?! A glazed platform in the middle of the water, can only super noble people sit inside, right?!?!?!?!

  Author: Comrade Xiaocha... Aren't you here to study layout?

  Just as I was about to turn my head in another direction to study somewhere else, a person suddenly appeared in front of me... Under the chestnut-red hair, there is a delicate face like porcelain, with beautiful lines and thin lips tightly closed. The light brown pupils under the crystal lamp flicker with a faint glow, as if stained with morning dew... Although it is such an absolutely beautiful thing, his body seems to be shrouded in a layer of gray cold air... But not at all hiding his noble temperament since birth.
