Chapter 90 Yukinoshita
"elder sister......"
Upon seeing the newcomer, an indescribable expression appeared on Yukino Yukinoshita's delicate face.
"elder sister?"
Yuigahama Yui heard Yukino Yukinoshita's murmur and asked in surprise, "Is she your older sister, Yukinoshita?"
"Yes, that's right~"
The woman arrived here with a bright, sunny smile on her face.
"I'm Yukino's older sister, Haruno. Hello~" Haruno Yukinoshita, Yukino's older sister, waved and greeted everyone in a friendly manner.
She was mature and beautiful, with neat and tidy short hair. Her simple long-sleeved shirt and jeans gave her a model-like appearance.
She has a similar appearance to Yukino Yukinoshita, but with a sunny smile that makes people like her at first glance.
"Y-hello..." Yui Yuigahama immediately became nervous.
Whether it's her friend's family or Yukino Yukinoshita's family, she can't help but want to behave well.
"Mmm~"
Yukinoshita stroked her chin, smiling as she looked at her sister's friend, her gaze finally settling on Natsuo's face.
"That's strange, Yukino actually has a male friend. Who are you?"
"My name is Natsumi, and I'm Yukinoshita's classmate."
"Hey classmate, but the name Natsumi sounds kind of weird." Yukinoshita Haruno looked at Natsumi with interest.
"Yes, I am of mixed Chinese and Japanese descent," Xia Sheng replied.
"I see... May I sit a little further in?"
"Hmm? Okay."
Natsumi understood what she meant, and he gestured for Shiina Mahiru to move inside and make room for her.
Yukinoshita Haruno sat down next to Natsuo, opposite Yukinoshita Yukino, without any hesitation.
"Sister...why are you here?" Yukino Yukinoshita finally spoke, her expression showing helplessness.
"Huh? Can't I come to see my sister?" Yukinoshita Haruno looked at her sister and asked with a smile.
"You did this for no reason..."
"It's not without reason, you know. You're starting school tomorrow, right? You're in second grade now, and Mom wanted you to come back for a get-together," Yukinoshita Haruno interrupted.
"Going back? I understand. I'll go back in a bit." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded.
The implication was that she could leave first.
However, Yukino Yukinoshita seemed not to understand and looked at Yui Yuigahama and Mahiru Shiina again.
"They're all cute girls. Yukino, when did you make friends? You didn't even tell me."
"Why should I tell you about my friendships?" Yukino Yukinoshita retorted coldly.
"Oh dear~ How cold. I'd like to get to know Yukino's friends, since you never used to make friends. What's so special about them?" Yukinoshita Haruno's smile remained unchanged, but her tone carried a hint of authority.
Her gaze was that of someone in a superior position; Yui and the others were just children.
"That's none of your business," Yukino Yukinoshita replied, her attitude still indifferent.
These two sisters seem to have a strained relationship.
Yui Yuigahama noticed this too, and didn't dare to interrupt.
"It's none of my business. Does Mom know?" Yukinoshita Haruno's smile faded.
"..." Yukino Yukinoshita fell silent.
Their families, their mothers, don't allow them to make friends with men casually.
"I said, you're disturbing us," Xia Sheng interrupted, breaking the silence.
"Hmm?" Yukinoshita Haruno looked at him in surprise.
"I don't care about your sisterly relationship. Right now, Yukino's time belongs to us. She'll be going back soon. Didn't your family teach you that disturbing others is unreasonable behavior?" Natsumi and Yukino looked at each other calmly.
Yukino Yukinoshita looked up at Natsuo with a surprised expression.
She hadn't expected Xia Sheng to speak up for her; no, this seemed like the kind of thing he would do.
Yukino Yukinoshita looked at him quietly, then smiled and said, "I see, I see. No wonder you and Yukino are friends. I'll remember you."
She reached out and patted Xia Sheng on the shoulder, looking both satisfied and amused.
"Don't touch me." Xia Sheng said rudely, shaking off her hand.
"..." Yukino Yukinoshita paused for a moment, then laughed nonchalantly.
"Haha~ You are indeed very interesting. Okay, then I won't bother you anymore."
As she spoke, she got up and prepared to leave.
"Yukino, remember to come back soon. And Natsu-kun, see you next time." Yukinoshita Haruno stared at Natsu, her smile bright but her eyes full of meaning.
"If there's a chance." Xia Sheng nodded, responding calmly.
"There will definitely be a chance, bye-bye~" Yukinoshita Haruno waved her hand and left decisively.
She came suddenly and left just as abruptly, leaving people a bit confused about her purpose.
You just came to call Yukino Yukinoshita back? You can just send a text message.
"I'm sorry for causing you trouble." After Yukino Yukinoshita Haruno left, Yukino Yukinoshita bowed her head and apologized to Natsuo and the others.
"Yukinoshita, you don't need to apologize. We don't mind." Yui Yuigahama quickly waved her hand.
"Yeah, it's normal to run into family, but your sister is really something," Shiina Mahiru added.
She could sense that Yukinoshita Haruno was extraordinary; the other girls were no match for her.
Xia Sheng was originally the same, but it piqued her interest.
"You don't need to worry about it. Besides, didn't I say we're companions? Why are you being so polite with us?" Xia Sheng feigned displeasure.
"That's true, then I won't stand on ceremony." Yukino Yukinoshita smiled faintly.
This smile was different from her usual deliberate ones; it was a genuine smile from the heart, like a gentle spring breeze.
Where were we?
"Um, about gaining abilities and stuff..." Yui Yuigahama pursed her lips and whispered a reminder.
"Yes, we need to have magic, otherwise we can't do anything. And nobody knows what dangers await us next, so we must be prepared," Yukino Yukinoshita said with a serious expression.
"But if you want to have magic, you have to..." Yui Yuigahama hesitated, glancing at Yukino Yukinoshita and Mahiru Shiina, then at Natsuo.
"You've already confirmed for us that I have to kiss Natsuo," Yukino Yukinoshita calmly replied.
"Um..." Yui Yuigahama said a little embarrassedly.
The topic has come back to this one, the one she dreads most, yet one she can't avoid.
"If Yuihama is willing to make up her mind, then we can't be willful anymore, or we'll only hold them back," Yukino Yukinoshita said, looking at Mahiru Shiina.
She can make a choice, but what about Shiina Mahiru?
She could tell that Shiina Mahiru was even more persistent than she was, and that she had a strong conviction in her heart.
Having known her for a while, Yukino Yukinoshita felt that she shouldn't be such a person who disregards the bigger picture.
She and Xia Sheng had already established a certain foundation for their relationship, which was enough for her to take action.
Then there must be a special reason.
"Shiina, what are your plans?" Yukino Yukinoshita asked directly.
"I......"
Shiina Mahiru's cherry blossom-like lips parted slightly, but she didn't answer immediately; instead, she looked at Natsuo.
"Just do what you feel like." Xia Sheng looked at her with a gentle smile.
"I can still protect you all."
"No..." Shiina Mahiru shook her head, her expression solemn.
Please give me some time.
"time?"
"Yes, I'm going to do something to put an end to that last thought. I need to confirm once again whether there is still hope, or... no hope at all."
