If only someone could appear and snatch Cocolia back from that organization's clutches!
"Knock, knock, knock--"
Suddenly, a knock on the door sounded.
Hearing the noise, Elena quickly tidied her appearance and then spoke:
"Please come in."
The door was gently opened, and a young, beautiful, timid woman walked in.
Looking at the weak and beautiful woman before her, Elena spoke softly:
"Mrs. Hayaki, I need your help with something."
"If you complete this task, then your husband, who was fired by ME Corp., can continue to work here. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hayaki's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked:
"What do you need me to do?"
Seeing her interest, Elena smiled slightly:
"I heard you used to have experience as a private detective, and coupled with your timid appearance which serves as natural camouflage, this task is perfect for you."
Hearing this, Mrs. Hayaki hesitated slightly and asked: "Excuse me, what do you want me to do...?"
"Keep an eye on Raiden Mei and Su Moqian," Elena said slowly.
"I need intelligence on their recent activities. If you can find any leverage, I'll give you a large reward."
"Of course, you could also fabricate some leverage..."
Mrs. Hayaki listened silently, but when she heard Su Moqian's name, a strange look appeared in her eyes.
Chapter 46: Why Did It Turn Out This Way?
Meanwhile, on the grounds of Senba Academy.
"So, why did it turn out this way?"
Su Moqian, walking home from school, couldn't help but ask.
Currently, Su Moqian had Bronya pushing her wheelchair in front, Kiana walking to his left, and Raiden Mei walking alongside him to his right.
Their formation as they walked home drew the attention of the surrounding students, like a unique spectacle.
Not only that, but school had also been strange today.
Bronya had finally returned to normal, but Kiana and Raiden Mei had become abnormal.
When interacting with him, Kiana completely lacked her usual carefree demeanor and had become shy like a young girl.
To Su Moqian, this was astounding. He couldn't understand how the foolish Kiana had become like this.
Moreover, during their conversations, Kiana had tried to say something several times but ended up stopping herself.
It made him feel restless, wondering what Kiana actually wanted to do.
Raiden Mei was also inexplicably sulking with him today, and he didn't know why.
She had insisted on walking with him after school, which led to the current situation.
"Wow, look at that new auditing student, he's so handsome!"
"Yeah, yeah, otherwise he wouldn't have three beautiful girls accompanying him."
"Indeed, it's like he's won the lottery!"
Listening to the whispers from the people around him, Su Moqian couldn't help but shout inwardly:
"You guys don't understand anything at all?!"
Bronya was naturally taciturn, Mei was inexplicably sulking, and Kiana, who was usually responsible for livening things up, had become shy.
At this moment, Su Moqian felt like he was trapped between them, which was simply torture.
The considerate Mei, the energetic Kiana, the emotionless Bronya.
Together, this should have been triple the happiness, but why did it turn out this way?
Helplessly, wanting to change the oppressive atmosphere, Su Moqian took the initiative to start a conversation:
"Speaking of which, where does Kiana live? Mei and I are going the same way, but you..."
Hearing Su Moqian suddenly speak, Kiana reacted for a moment, then said softly:
"Actually, it's quite a coincidence. I just rented a place in Changkong City casually."
"But I didn't expect it to be only a ten-minute walk from Moqian's house. I only found out after I moved in."
"Oh? Such a coincidence?" Su Moqian nodded.
After that, the four fell into silence again.
Su Moqian glanced at Kiana and Raiden Mei to his left and right, a look of helplessness appearing in his eyes.
Honestly, he knew now that both Kiana and Mei had issues and might need his help.
But the problem was, both of them were here right now.
Su Moqian wished he could learn the Clone Technique immediately so he could deal with both of them separately, and also take care of Bronya.
Ultimately, with no other options, Su Moqian decided to stall for a while. After he took Bronya home, he would go find the two of them to understand the situation.
After parting ways with Kiana and Raiden Mei, Su Moqian escorted Bronya back home.
Afterward, without even resting, Su Moqian prepared to head out.
"Sigh, I should go check on Mei's place first."
Saying that, Su Moqian left his home, intending to head towards Mei's house.
However, just then, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket.
"I wonder who it could be at this hour?"
Su Moqian picked up the phone with a hint of helplessness, but the next moment he realized the caller was Kiana.
He had originally planned to find Mei first and then go look for Kiana, but he hadn't expected her to call him directly.
"Hello, Kiana, what's wrong?" Su Moqian asked as he answered the call.
"Moqian, can we meet? There's something I want to talk to you about," Kiana's voice came through the phone.
"This..." Su Moqian looked hesitantly in the direction of Mei's house.
Seeing Su Moqian's hesitation, Kiana added, "Can't we?"
Upon hearing this, Su Moqian sighed, then resolutely nodded:
"Okay, where are you now? I'll come find you."
Hearing his agreement, Kiana also breathed a sigh of relief.
After stating the name of the dessert shop she was at, she hung up the phone and waited for him to arrive.
"Sigh." Kiana let out a soft sigh.
Her heart was in turmoil today, and her mind had been racing with thoughts, never stopping.
Chong Chong felt like she had used up a whole year's worth of thinking in just one day.
Yet, even so, she still hadn't found an answer.
Looking at the small cake placed on the table before her, Kiana had no appetite. Her mind was still tangled:
"What should I do?"
Human emotions are not static; sometimes they are influenced by reason, and sometimes by sentiment.
And when people first wake up, they are most easily influenced by sentiment.
Therefore, at that time.
Kiana had conceived the impulse to snatch Su Moqian back from Mei.
However, after a day of reflection, Kiana suddenly realized she couldn't act on such an impulse.
After all, when a person falls in love with another, they often develop feelings of inferiority.
Kiana was no different. This usually proud young lady couldn't help but harbor self-doubt at this moment.
"Mei is so gentle and considerate. Any man dating her must be very happy, right?"
"And I'm just a clumsy idiot who can't do anything..."
"If I really snatched Moqian away from Mei and he ended up with me, would he be happy?"
Although Kiana possessed a pure heart, she was not insensitive when it came to matters of the heart.
She could discern the doting look in Su Moqian's eyes whenever he looked at her.
That was why she was so bold in front of Moqian, daring to do anything.
But, was the doting affection Su Moqian had for her truly romantic love?
Kiana dared not be sure.
"Perhaps, he just sees me as a mischievous little sister. After all, who would constantly call the person they love a 'fool'?"
Thinking this, Kiana gave a self-deprecating smile.
Kiana never lacked courage, but the stakes were simply too high, making her hesitant to act rashly.
If only he could take one step towards her.
Even just a small step would be enough for her to confirm his feelings and bravely take a big stride herself!
Chapter 47: A Heartyearning to Convey
A moment later, at Chansuke Dessert Shop.
As soon as Su Moqian pushed open the door, the beautiful female cashier at the counter smiled and said:
"Sir, you're finally here. Your girlfriend has been waiting for you with bated breath."
"My girlfriend?" Su Moqian was taken aback.
The female clerk smiled and pointed at Kiana at a nearby table.
"Ah..."
Su Moqian realized the other person had misunderstood and was about to explain, but Kiana suddenly spoke up and interrupted him.
"Moqian, come over here. I've already ordered the desserts."
Seeing Kiana sitting there, Su Moqian nodded and quickly walked over.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Kiana shook her head. "It's okay to wait a while, as long as you're here."
Hearing this, Su Moqian was slightly stunned.
He felt like Kiana's words seemed to have another meaning, but he quickly dismissed the thought.
Su Moqian knew Kiana very well and knew she always spoke without thinking, only understanding the most superficial meaning when listening to others.
How could someone like her have hidden meanings in her words?
With that thought, Su Moqian relaxed.
"Right, Kiana, you said you had something to tell me, right?"
As he spoke, Su Moqian picked up a stack of tiramisu and began to taste it.
"Hmm, why is it bitter?" Su Moqian's expression tightened slightly.
He remembered Kiana didn't like sweet things? Then why did she order such a bitter tiramisu?
At this moment, Kiana took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision, and looked directly at Su Moqian, saying:
