Chapter 742 - 206: Surprise Attack! (Part 2)
"..."
Watching Yahashiki give him a thumbs-up, Yan Huan gritted his teeth and turned to look inside the room.
The words were already out there. He had no choice but to give this gift.
Pretending not to know about the cohabitation legend meant he couldn’t conceal the fact that he was here to stop the modifier from being used.
Thus, Yan Huan had no choice but to give the gift to one woman, and it had to be one of those few present; it was the best solution.
There were four people inside; if he gave it to one, he’d upset the other three girls.
If he gave it to another girl, it would upset the four who were present...
Just as he was thinking this, his eyes glanced at An Le, sitting on the sofa with her eyes downcast.
He looked again at the three young women in front with eager expressions...
For some reason, Yan Huan suddenly felt:
If he truly had to give this gift, he would choose to give it to An Le.
Even if doing so would cause discontent among the other three hosts.
Although An Le doesn’t live on this floor, but...
He might as well pretend he didn’t know she didn’t live on this floor.
Anyway, when he came up, worried they might really have a problem, he had already anxiously called An Le’s name.
"Ah, I came up to deliver a gift."
After contemplating for a few seconds, Yan Huan took a deep breath, lifted his right hand holding the gift, and said,
"This gift is intended for..."
"Tap tap tap~"
At that very moment.
Nearby, hurried footsteps approached.
"Gasp! It’s Ashley, the Discipline Committee Chairman!"
"No, Ashley... Hey, and also that time..."
Yahashiki turned his head, his face showing surprise.
Hearing this, Yan Huan was slightly stunned, just about to turn his head when a soft hand wrapped around his shoulder.
The scent mixed with a faint whiff of tobacco made Yan Huan instinctively turn his head, and before him, Tong Yingying’s sharp eyes were only inches away from his.
"Yingying?! You’re already here?"
At Yan Huan’s call, Tong Yingying smirked and grasped the arm he held the gift with.
Then, she turned to glance into the room.
Inside the room, only Sakuragi Hitomi had seen Tong Yingying in person; the other three didn’t know anything about Tong Yingying.
"Yeah, I was eager to come find you..."
Upon seeing the four heavenly...ah no, four beautiful girls inside, Tong Yingying immediately looked at the gift in Yan Huan’s hand and said,
"Oh, the Mikimoto pearl necklace, is this the mysterious gift you mentioned you prepared for me on plane?"
The room was stunned.
Sakuragi Hitomi gritted her teeth, while Ye Shiyu and Bai Yi frowned and scrutinized the unexpected guest.
They didn’t recognize the newcomer, so they glanced at Sakuragi Hitomi, who seemed to know something, silently asking,
"Who is this old woman?"
"...The boss of the President’s workplace."
Sakuragi Hitomi’s lips moved slightly as she replied with the same.
Bai Yi was left dumbstruck.
After all, she thought Yan Huan’s workplace boss would be some old man or woman, right?
How could it be a sophisticated red-haired lady?
"This boss has sinister intentions towards Xiao Huan..."
Beside her, Ye Shiyu voiced silently but was immediately glared at by Sakuragi Hitomi and Bai Yi.
You’re the one who has ulterior motives toward Yan Huan, how dare you talk about others’ boss?
But they didn’t voice it out loud, knowing that unity was crucial now.
Not to mention the Anle Demon King, just this Tong Yingying here now.
She was surveying the room, even looked at the little girls inside with a gaze as mighty as "Qin Shi Huang sweeping across the six states!"
"..."
All three were annoyed by her provocative gaze, but An Le blinked curiously at Tong Yingying.
And Yan Huan...
Yan Huan was already defeated by the twist of fate.
But speaking of which, who’d have thought Tong Yingying would hurry all the way to Osaka.
Regardless, Yan Huan had planned to give the gift to An Le, which upset the other three hosts; giving it to Tong Yingying resulted in the same...ultimately offending all three...
More so, the gift was originally meant for Tong Yingying.
"What, isn’t this gift for me?"
Seeing Yan Huan not speak up, Tong Yingying glared at him resentfully.
The meaning seemed clear:
If you embarrass your elder sister, she’ll show you why she’s your elder sister.
Yan Huan gave a slight smile and handed her the gift,
"No, I specially prepared this for you, Yingying."
"That’s more like it~"
Tong Yingying gave Yan Huan a satisfied look, proudly accepted the gift.
Beside them, Yahashiki, who had sneakily wandered into the girls’ dorm, was already caught by Discipline Committee Chairman Ashley.
He leaned against the wall, noticing the gift was not for any of the three, and gave Yan Huan another thumbs-up.
The meaning was:
"Didn’t expect to guess wrong, nothing gained without effort, I don’t need those five sets of merchandise anymore."
And just as he moved, Ashley coldly held him down,
"Behave yourself, sneaking into the girls’ dorm while being part of the student council, and the President as well..."
"..."
Inside the room, Bai Yi skeptically eyed Tong Yingying provocatively and questioned,
"Wait, don’t both this floor and the floor above have our school’s girls living here? Even if Yan Huan wanted to give it to you, how could he come up here?"
At her words, Sakuragi Hitomi and Ye Shiyu both turned their heads, unsure how to react.
Having sent the gift, whether or not one likes or questions it, it’s best not to immediately speak out.
Doing so would reveal your desire for it, and showing emotion could put you at a disadvantage; highlighting conflicts only make scenes unpleasant.
