"Uh... so, why are we suddenly leaving?"

"..."

The moment this thought popped into Bai Yi's mind, Spencer's words next to her made her take a deep breath.

Well, although Bai Yi didn't quite understand what exactly had happened.

Ye Shiyu seemed to know, but she was pretending to be aloof, acting all mysterious and saying nothing.

However, she, as a little idol, didn't understand the matters of the Sakuragi Family, but she did know a bit about the "Alliance" as the "Alliance Hierarch."

At this moment, Bai Yi's suspicious gaze quietly drifted between Sakuragi Hitomi and An Le.

She sensed that their previously "unbreakable" alliance now seemed to have a few cracks.

As for Ye Shiyu and Yan Huan, they were sitting in the back, having things to do.

Ye Shiyu was holding a phone, waiting for some news, while Yan Huan sat beside her, also waiting.

"Ding~"

After a while, the phone chimed softly, and Ye Shiyu glanced at it before saying to Yan Huan,

"Mom says there's nothing to worry about, so relax, Xiao Huan."

"That's great..."

After getting Aunt Ye's response, Yan Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon, he glanced at Ye Shiyu beside him, who locked her phone screen and looked ahead, and after a moment of silence, he spoke,

"Sorry, Sister Shiyu."

Ye Shiyu turned her head to look at him upon hearing this, tilting her head slightly as she asked,

"Xiao Huan, why apologize?"

"Because earlier, I revealed your identity to that old man without your permission..."

Though essentially not leveraging Ye Lan's influence, it was just to substantiate the cooperation between Sakuragi Yuri and Ye International.

But after all, it was done first and reported later, so it was indeed unfair to Ye Shiyu.

However, upon hearing this, Ye Shiyu shook her head and said,

"Xiao Huan acknowledged I'm your elder sister to outsiders earlier, and I'm very happy. Besides, we're family, right?"

"..."

Upon hearing these words, Yan Huan fell silent for a moment.

Although Ye Shiyu wasn't good with words, Yan Huan understood her meaning:

Since we're family, no need to be so particular.

However, at this moment, hearing Ye Shiyu's words, he suddenly recalled what Ye Shiyu had said to him before they came.

She said she joined the study group because she wanted to come to Ying Country for the joint study with him.

In the end, she hadn't played at all along the way, first being disrupted by An Le, then by the Sakuragi Family's matters...

Moreover, earlier, he was actually wary of Ye Shiyu, afraid she might find another chance to control him intensely again.

So, hearing Ye Shiyu's words, Yan Huan felt somewhat sorry for her.

It can only be said that prejudice in people's hearts is like a mountain.

Yan Huan, oh Yan Huan, how could you think like this, perhaps Sister Shiyu has truly changed?

"..."

While Yan Huan was in deep thought, Ye Shiyu's gaze suddenly swept over, landing on the wrist that Sakuragi Hitomi had been holding earlier.

As she said, she truly saw Xiao Huan as family.

But if they're family, shouldn't he not stand up for other girls?

Also letting another girl hold his hand and say words that sound like a "declaration of ownership," it's really inappropriate.

So, punishment was necessary.

Moreover, Xiao Huan already apologized, meaning he recognized his mistake and was willing to accept punishment...

With these thoughts, Ye Shiyu's previously calm expression finally showed some emotion, starting to breathe lightly.

She hadn't hypnotized Xiao Huan for quite a while now, and she was finding it hard to endure.

The main thing was, it just happened to give her a reason.

Firstly, Sakuragi Hitomi was the first to betray the alliance, so she shouldn't be blamed for not keeping the agreement.

Secondly, Sakuragi Hitomi showed off in front of her, performing this whole scene of snatching someone with Xiao Huan...

All factors considered, the previously restrained Ye Shiyu felt the urge again.

"..."

But first, she had to think about how to deal with those troublesome people?

With this thought, Ye Shiyu took a deep breath, gripping the phone as she began to secretly observe the backs of Sakuragi Hitomi and An Le.

"Screech~"

Just then, as she raised her eyes, the car came to a halt.

Everyone was momentarily stunned, looking outside at what seemed to be a suburban street, unsure of the next plan.

"Click, click..."

The next second, the car door opened, revealing Sakuragi Ran's calm expression outside.

He first glanced at Sakuragi Hitomi, then looked at Yan Huan,

"Let's go, Mom's here, waiting for you."

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan was momentarily stunned, and his first thought was:

It's finally time.

He rubbed his shoulder and got out of the car. Looking up, he saw a couple standing by a black sedan up ahead.

First was Sakuragi Yuri, who still had her beautiful yet traditional hairstyle, wearing a black kimono, smiling at Yan Huan.

Beside her stood a handsome middle-aged man in a suit and glasses, with a graceful demeanor.

As soon as Yan Huan stepped out, he gave the young man a once-over.

Sakuragi Yuri then rolled up her sleeve and introduced with a smile,

"Darling, this is the Yan Huan I was telling you about."

"..."

After giving him a few looks, the man retracted his scrutinizing gaze, smiled, and said,

"Hello, Little Lily has mentioned you to me, said you're quite outstanding."

Yan Huan instantly realized this person was Sakuragi Hitomi's father, Sakuragi Harutake.
