Chapter One Hundred: The Double Betrayal of Love and Friendship

  The following week's retreat also passed in such a noisy and lively atmosphere, but it's worth mentioning that Ye Shuyu and Shinoda's relationship seemed to have improved somewhat during this retreat. As for Kohmura, he was repeatedly forced to change color by Emily, who was completely unaware of her own actions and kept approaching Kohmura, saying that only someone with his looks could match her exquisite aesthetic sense.

  After arriving in Kanagawa, Kaze thought that this time he must go to Tokyo and meet Niji properly. Calculating now, they haven't seen each other for almost half a month, and it's been a week since they last called each other. In order to achieve the surprise effect when meeting, Kaze deliberately didn't call Niji, wanting him to think that he was still in training camp. However, sometimes when you want to do something, N things will come up to disturb you.

  This unpleasant wind had just gone out and received a call from Hisami.

  "Moses, Moses."

  "Yafeng, are you at home now?"

  "What's wrong? Is anything the matter?"

  "I'm in Kanagawa now, is it convenient for us to meet?"

  "Of course, where are you?" Yafeng said with some surprise.

  "I am on this side of the station."

  "Ah, it's not far from my home, there is a coffee shop at the main entrance of the station, did you see it?"

  "Uh, is it that coffee shop called Sea of Love?"

  "Right, so you go there and wait for me, I'll probably arrive in about ten minutes."

  "Alright, we'll wait for you."

  After hanging up the phone, Yafeng tilted her head and thought for a moment, somewhat puzzled as to why Hisae would rush all the way to Kanagawa to find herself, but still headed towards their agreed meeting place.

  After arriving at the coffee shop, Yafeng first greeted the boss of the store. Since it's not far from the Santanda house, Yafeng and Santanda often come here to buy desserts, so they have a good relationship with the boss.

  "Hey, Kumi, long time no see!"

  "Yafeng, you're here?" Jumei looked at Yafeng with a complex expression.

  "Let's wait for a while."

  Masayuki said and sat down in front of Hisae, then the owner of this store, Mrs. Sekiya, came over and asked familiarly: "Mr. Masayuki, is it the usual today?"

  "Ah, help me add a blueberry cake, trouble you." Yafeng said with a smile.

  "Ah, wait a minute."

  After Guan Guan Valley's wife left, Ya Feng said to Hisae: "The cake in this house is delicious, especially the blueberry cake. So, Hisae can try it later."

  Hisami looked at Yafeng's radiant smile and still smiled perfunctorily.

  "Hey, Kumi seems like she's not in a good mood. Can you tell me about it?" Yafeng asked, looking at Kumi.

  Hisako looked at him with her mouth open but didn't say anything. Instead, she lowered her head and slowly stirred the orange juice in front of her.

  Yafeng looked puzzled but didn't press Jumei to speak, instead looking at her with questioning eyes. Before long, the things Yafeng had ordered were delivered.

  "Hey Kumi, this cake is what I ordered for you, it's really delicious, I highly recommend it."

  Yah Feng brought a radiant smile and pushed that blueberry cake in front of Qiu Mei.

  Hisami bit her lower lip and looked at Yafeng as if hesitating about something.

  "What's going on? I won't know until Yumi tells me." Akane said with a habitual smile, turning her hand around.

  Hisami took a deep breath and then pulled out an invitation from a tightly grasped bag and handed it to Yafeng.

  "What's this? It looks so cute! Can I have a post?"

  Yahiko took the invitation with great interest, opened it, and when he saw the contents inside, his face changed greatly. His eyes looking at Kumi were also unbelievable. He opened his mouth and finally laughed lightly, saying: "Kumi, are you playing a joke on me? But this joke is not funny at all? Such serious things can't be joked about."

  Hisami, who had been avoiding Yafeng's gaze all along, looked straight into his eyes for the first time after hearing Yafeng's words. She said seriously: "Yafeng, this is true, I'm not joking."

  Yah Feng still looked disbelieving, "Don't you already know about Zhou Zhuo and my relationship?"

  Kumiko's face turned pale, but she immediately looked at Yafeng with a determined expression and said: "But didn't you also see it? This is the invitation to my engagement party with Shūsuke, we will be engaged in three days at Nijiya."

  Yahiko's face was also pale, but he still looked at Kumiko with a stubborn expression and said: "I don't believe it, Shuuhei just told me that he likes me, we're in a relationship, he wouldn't do this to me, are you lying to me?"

  "This is true," said Kumiko with conviction, then looked at Yafeng and smiled lightly, saying: "Do you think Brother Zhou will really be with you? Do you think you are worthy of being with Brother Zhou?"

  Ya Feng's face was pale as he bit his lower lip and stared at Hisae without saying a word.

  "You said you were dating Shūsuke Ono, but why is the rumor from the Sanada household that you're engaged to Tetsuya Handa?"

  "That was decided before I was with Zhou Zhu." Yafeng retorted.

  "Then why didn't you and Shūsuke clear things up with the Sanada family after you got together?" Kumiko continued to ask.

  "I haven't had a chance yet, and I never have."

  "Opportunity? Don't you think it's been too long? You just don't want to say, what are you afraid of? Are you worthy of being called Brother Zhou?"

  Yahiko opened his mouth but didn't know how to refute, the main reason he had never said was because he was afraid that Mada would not be able to accept Nifu, in that case she would know whether to insist on her own love or listen to Mada's words, after all, that person was the most important person in this world so far.

  "And your fiancé is Teshigawara-senpai, you said that Shoyo-nii would think when he's with you, but isn't he his best friend? You're making him betray his best friend, don't you think that's cruel?"

  Ya Feng's face turned whiter and whiter.

  "And you're not even worthy of Zhou Zhuo, do you remember? Last year I asked if you liked Zhou Zhuo and you told me to seize the opportunity, but what happened? You ended up snatching him away from me! I trusted you so much, but what about you? Aren't we friends? Is this something a friend would do?"

  Hisakawa's excitement grew as he spoke, while Gafu's face turned whiter and the other people in the store began to take notice.

  "Kumiko." Yafeng said with a hint of guilt, looking at Kumiko.

  "Don't call me, you know? I had already decided to accept you as Zhou Zhuo's girlfriend, even if you deceived me and I would be very sad. But what about you? Not only did you not cherish Zhou Zhuo well, but you also hurt him. So I won't back down anymore. Fortunately, after I confessed to Zhou Zhuo, he agreed and we directly set a marriage agreement. Originally, I didn't want to come notify you, but since we've met before, I should still tell you."

  Yasuka felt a pang in her chest and her face turned paler, but Yumi continued to vent: "Yasuka, do you know? You were originally my favorite friend besides Narumi, but now I hate you, really hate you. Although I brought this invitation card for you today, it's not a real invitation. I don't want you to come, and I don't want anything unpleasant to happen at the engagement party between me and Shusuke-san. I believe Shusuke-san thinks so too."

  She stood up again and looked at Yafeng with a complicated gaze, then left. When she walked to Yafeng's side, she paused for a moment and said: "If possible, please don't appear in front of me and Brother Zhouzi again, okay? I don't want to recall this bad memory, let's leave a good impression on each other's hearts, even if reality is ugly, okay? Don't make me hate you."

  After Kumiko left, Yafeng immediately covered her chest with her right hand and fell on the table. The suffocating pain coming from her heart was like it was going to cut off her breath. She took out her phone with her left hand and dialed the first number in her contacts.

  "Elegant style."

  "I, I'm in a car, the café in front of the station." Yafeng endured the pain and said this sentence intermittently before fainting.

  Five minutes later, Tiana rushed into the store like a gust of wind, looked around and ran to the place where Yafeng was, calling out softly: "Yafeng, what's wrong?"

  After not getting a response, he hastily lifted up Yafeng and after seeing her pale face, held his breath for a moment before immediately picking her up and running out of the coffee shop. Meanwhile, Mrs. Sekiya was also taken aback when she saw Yafeng's face, previously thinking that Yafeng had just been crying there after a fight with a good friend, but never thought that she had fainted.
