Maya Yotsuba asked with a suspicious look.
He couldn't understand why Katsuto Jumonji knew about Baifeng Uesugi's return. He had previously speculated that perhaps Koichi Saegusa had learned of the news and that's why he had come to visit. Katsuto Jumonji's visit was either on his way or he had something to discuss with him.
However, to his surprise, the person who truly understood Baifeng Uesugi's situation was Katsuto Jumonji.
With a smile on his face, Katsuto Jumonji slowly said:
"Actually, I had already suspected Baifeng Uesugi's true identity back in school. Moreover, during that time, I didn't reveal his identity; I even helped him conceal it."
Katsuto Jumonji said this to try and win Maya Yotsuba's favor; otherwise, it would be difficult for him to see Baifeng Uesugi today.
Maya Yotsuba's gaze was fixed on Katsuto Jumonji, as if trying to see through his appearance to uncover his inner secrets. Her eyes revealed a sharpness and vigilance, as if searching for any possible flaw.
However, Katsuto Jumonji's performance was flawless; his expression was firm, without the slightest hint of panic or awkwardness. Maya Yotsuba's observation did not yield the expected results, and a trace of disappointment gradually appeared in her eyes.
Then, she slowly turned her gaze to Koichi Saegusa, as if hoping to find some clues or answers from him. Her eyes were full of contemplation and curiosity, as if she were thinking about Koichi Saegusa's relationship with the whole situation.
" Maya, alright. Katsuto didn't mean any harm by coming to see Bai Feng; I already asked him about it."
Seeing Maya Yotsuba's hostile and wary gaze, Koichi Saegusa sighed helplessly and began to explain.
Hearing Koichi Saegusa's words, Maya Yotsuba's gaze remained fixed on him, but she relaxed her guard slightly. After a moment of silence, she coldly replied, "Okay, I understand. Bai Feng is resting now. I'll ask him what he thinks when he wakes up."
Faced with Maya Yotsuba's firm stance, Koichi Saegusa knew that further words would be futile. He nodded, indicating his understanding and agreement.
Then Maya Yotsuba Baifeng Uesugi wasn't here, and she didn't want to stay any longer. She'd rather go back and hug Baifeng Uesugi a little longer than stay here.
Watching Maya Yotsuba's retreating figure, Katsuto Jumonji secretly felt relieved. When facing Maya Yotsuba just now, he felt unprecedented pressure, and even his forehead was covered in a layer of sweat.
"As expected of the current head of the Yotsuba Family, he is indeed very powerful."
"I can't believe my eyes, "Katsuto Jumonji muttered to himself, still shaken.
With Maya Yotsuba's departure, the tense atmosphere in the room finally eased. Koichi Saegusa smiled at Katsuto Jumonji and comforted him:
"Don't worry, I believe Bai Feng will be willing to communicate with you after he wakes up." After saying that, he patted Katsuto Jumonji's shoulder, signaling him to calm down.
"Yes, thank you very much Saegusa Family. But Saegusa Family, what brings you here to see Bai Feng?"
"Katsuto Jumonji asked, puzzled."
When Koichi Saegusa first approached him and told him about Baifeng Uesugi's return, he was clearly very excited. So Koichi Saegusa was curious about what important matter Nanagus Baifeng Uesugi.
After all, Yotsuba Clan and Saegusa are very secretive about their actions, making it quite difficult to find out anything about them.
"Well, it's fine to tell you. Mayumi is about to graduate, and I came to see Bai Feng mainly to discuss some engagement matters," Koichi Saegusa smile.
"I see! But does Mayumi Saegusa know you're here?" Katsuto Jumonji frowned, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Koichi Saegusa's lips curled into a confident smile. He gently patted Katsuto Jumonji's shoulder and replied in a relaxed tone:
"Of course. Actually, after you told me about Bai Feng's return, Mayumi also contacted me. She seemed very concerned about this matter, so she specifically asked me to come to the Yotsuba Clan's place to confirm the marriage."
At this point, a hint of tenderness and expectation flashed in Koichi Saegusa's eyes. He continued:
"The two of them have known each other since childhood, and it's something their families are happy to see happen. Fortunately, Mayumi also likes Bai Feng very much, so isn't this the best of both worlds?"
After listening, Katsuto Jumonji nodded in understanding.
However, he was somewhat annoyed. Why were there no women of marriageable age in the Jumonji Family? Otherwise...
Maya Yotsuba tiptoed into the room, her gaze landing on Baifeng Uesugi on the bed. Seeing that he was still fast asleep, Maya carefully walked to the bedside and gently lay down. Her movements were extremely gentle, as if she was afraid of waking Bai Feng.
However, the moment she lay down, Bai Feng suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze was still somewhat unfocused, but the instant he saw Maya, he immediately became alert.
"Did you go out for a while?" Baifeng Uesugi asked, puzzled.
After all, Maya Yotsuba was still dressed, clearly indicating that she had been outside.
"Yes, Katsuto Jumonji and Koichi Saegusa are here. They want to see you. I just went to meet them."
Seeing that Maya Yotsuba Baifeng Uesugi was awake, Baifeng Uesugi stopped tiptoeing and lay down on the bed, embracing him.
"How did they know I was back?" Baifeng Uesugi asked, puzzled.
" Katsuto Jumonji said he already suspected your identity back in school, probably because of your long leave of absence, plus the plane I sent that morning."
Maya Yotsuba explained softly.
"Well, okay, but did they mention why they wanted to see me?"
Baifeng Uesugi asked with a look of suspicion. He was truly baffled as to why Katsuto Jumonji had come looking for him.
"I'm not too clear about what's going on with Katsuto Jumonji, but I suspect that Koichi Saegusa's visit might be related to Mayumi Saegusa's marriage. Oh dear, congratulations! Another beautiful young lady is about to become yours!"
