The Secret That Was Discovered and the Sudden Visit from Jada

He even swallowed back the words he wanted to say, "You have to wait in line even if you want to."

And Scarlet Rice continued speaking:

"I don't know what you want from me, but after our conversation that day, I realized something: you don't seem to want me to date Motoki Yaze, so I'm no longer his girlfriend. I just hope you can help me break the curse."

Scarlet Rice has already placed herself in the most humble position.

There was nothing we could do about it.

The curse that Yotsuba Mahiro on her has severely impacted her life.

Putting aside the affairs of the Lion King Agency, she can no longer even do something as simple as going to school.

Even taking a single step feels like being bitten by thousands of ants.

Even after arriving at the Yotsuba Clan residence, she had exhausted all her strength.

She truly couldn't endure it any longer, and genuinely didn't want to be tortured any longer.

However, Yotsuba Mahiro stroked his chin, sizing her up.

After a long while, he finally spoke softly:

Are you sure you want me to break the curse for you?

"Yes, please. I can agree to any condition; I'll take back Yukina Himeragi's surveillance of you."

"All right."

Having said all that, what reason did he have to refuse?

I never imagined that my impulsive decision would lead to such a great reward.

So he got up and went straight to the girl, grabbed her hand and headed upstairs.

"Waaah--"

The moment her wrist was grabbed and she was forcibly dragged away, Scarlet Rice's legs went weak and her whole body trembled.

Sweat soaked the floor.

"Tsk tsk, has it gotten to this point?"

Mahiro glanced down, then bent down, scooped up Scarlet Rice's legs, and carried her up to the second floor.

"Hey, what is my master Mahiro doing here?"

Not long after Mahiro left, Avrora Florestina peeked out from the hallway in the living room, looking towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

Est remained silent.

Yuuma Sengakuji, who was in charge of taking care of the children, then explained:

"That's not something a child should know."

"Hmph, I am the monitor of the Fourth Progenitor, not some child!"

Avrora Florestina put her hands on her hips and puffed out her cheeks to show her dissatisfaction.

"Yes, yes, Avrora Florestina is no longer a child."

Yuuma Sengakuji gently stroked Avrora Florestina's head like an older sister, comforting her, and then looked towards the second floor.

She could vaguely hear that blushing voice.

Chapter 377 The Discovered Secret and the Unexpected Visit of Gada (5.5K)

One day later.

The next day.

As her biological clock slowly turned, Mahiro woke up and noticed that she felt heavy on her body.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that Scarlet Rice was fast asleep on his chest, her heavy, soft body pressing against him.

Her fair face still bore the lingering flush, and her brows furrowed occasionally, as if she were having some unpleasant dream.

Her loose braids spread out like a curtain across her snow-white back.

As strands of hair slipped down, faint red marks could still be seen.

The clothes on the floor were in disarray, with torn black stockings casually tossed on the sofa back, a bra with a broken strap, and underwear that was only the size of a drawstring.

The fighting last night was particularly fierce.

From dusk until dawn, Scarlet Rice suffered a crushing defeat.

However, perhaps because he had already woken up and changed his breathing pattern, Scarlet Rice finally woke up slowly from his sleep.

"Oh, you're awake?"

Seeing Scarlet Rice's sleepy-eyed appearance, Mahiro greeted her warmly.

At first, Scarlet Rice didn't react, but when she realized she was lying on a man's chest, she instantly lost all sleepiness and her body tensed up.

Just as he was about to make a move, Mahiro's voice rang out again.

"Are you sure you want to do this? Have you forgotten what you said last night?"

This reminder caused the memories I had forgotten last night to spring up like bamboo shoots in my mind.

In an instant, Scarlet Rice's face turned even redder.

Recalling last night, I was drawn in by that frenzied rhythm, my jade feet, raised in mid-air, slicing through the air, trembling with the deep impact.

Her face was so red it looked like it could bleed.

But she remained silent.

Maintaining her last shred of composure and calmness.

Trembling, she propped herself up on her arms, got off the bed, and silently picked up the clothes scattered on the floor, putting them back on one by one.

Unfortunately, the stockings were ruined and couldn't be worn back on.

There are new ones in the drawer.

Mahiro moment.

Upon hearing this, Scarlet Rice looked at him suspiciously, and the latter said:

"Don't misunderstand, that's for Aye."

At night, Aye would sneak into his room from time to time, and Yuuma Sengakuji even caught her twice.

Startled Yuuma Sengakuji immediately left the room without looking back and closed the door.

From then on, no one dared to disturb Yotsuba Mahiro's room at night.

Upon hearing his explanation, Scarlet Rice did not respond. Instead, she bent down, opened a drawer, took out a brand new pair of black stockings, unpacked them, and slowly put them on.

The thin black silk fabric covered her snow-white legs inch by inch, arousing a burning desire in one's heart.

Immediately afterwards, Scarlet Rice returned to the bedside and put her glasses back on the cabinet, concealing her captivating beauty.

Finally, forcing himself to stand up, he walked towards the door in a rather strange way.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't you have anything to say?"

Seeing that Scarlet Rice hadn't uttered a single word the entire time and was about to leave, Mahiro couldn't help but call out to her.

"..."

Scarlet Rice remained silent, but her hand was already on the doorknob.

"Hey, you haven't forgotten what you promised me last night, have you?"

At this moment, Scarlet Rice pressed the doorknob down heavily, opening the door a crack, but because of his words, she paused slightly and remained where she was.

"Actually, it's not a bad deal. Your Lion King Agency has just switched allegiance and is now serving me. I won't do anything to you. Think it over carefully."

"Yes, I know."

This time, Scarlet Rice finally spoke, but her response was very brief.

This made Mahiro click his tongue in amazement.

"Tsk, why are you acting like a gold-digging, womanizing scumbag? Would it kill you to say a few more words? Your reaction now is less than what you said in bed last night!"

Upon hearing this, Scarlet Rice, who had already walked halfway out, immediately retreated.

She could no longer maintain her composure, and with her eyes red and swollen, she turned around and glared at him fiercely.

What else do you want from me?!

She was filled with embarrassment and annoyance, and even a hint of exasperation.

Mahiro nodded with great satisfaction.

"That's more like it! I need to at least feel a sense of accomplishment from conquering it."

"Snort."

Scarlet Rice gave a soft snort, and whether she was out of her mind or something was wrong, she coldly uttered a sentence—

"Conquer? Just average."

After these words were spoken, the room fell silent.

Mahiro and Scarlet Rice looked at each other and blinked.

A moment later, Mahiro's eyes gradually turned a crimson red.

Very well, he has been successfully provoked.

Scarlet Rice sensed something was wrong and immediately tried to leave the room.

However, with a snap of his fingers, the surrounding space was completely sealed off.

She can't get out.

"So-so, I'll let you have your way!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Scarlet Rice felt a sudden dizziness.

Immediately afterwards, she felt a familiar scent on the tip of her nose and returned to Mahiro's embrace.

Scarlet Rice panicked.

"What... what are you planning to do now?"

"Let me go!"

"You bastard, waaaaah, you bastard, waaaah... you, you be gentle."

My soul is captivated by the swirling winds and clouds, the stars are round and the earth is square, forming the altar of the three realms.

The gate of life and death opens, and another calamity arises to wash away worldly impurities.

The great battle begins again!

Days passed by.

The Black Death Emperor Faction incident has finally come to an end.

The reconstruction of the artificial island has begun.

It was as if the great battle that had taken place on Itogami Island had never happened, or perhaps the residents of the artificial island had already gotten used to it.

It would be strange for the residents of Itogami Island to remain peaceful forever.

Yotsuba Mahiro returns to her peaceful school life.

As for Scarlet Rice...
