Chapter 612

"Actually, I can't tell clearly. If you want to say that you are in love, you probably already decided it was him from the moment you were rescued by the master, right?"

Finally, the girl spoke in a weak voice.

"Before I got to know the real master, I was actually very scared and disgusted with the master. I felt that he must have used some despicable means to deceive the eldest lady and the real concubine."

"But after he helped the eldest lady seize control of the fourth house family, he escaped without taking any money. From then on, I began to be confused about the master's behavior and began to want more. You know him. But no matter how I investigate, I can only tell that the master is lazy in life, and that he is...a bit of a slut, but I don’t know much about the rest."

"It wasn't until I actually encountered danger that I realized what kind of life the master had been facing all this time. I didn't know that it was actually because of the master's protection that the eldest lady could survive to this day and become stronger and stronger. I can truly control my own destiny. And I finally... got freed from that bastard Sigong Huangguang. I no longer have to monitor the eldest lady every day and report her information to the family. "

As Xiao Ai spoke, a look of reminiscence gradually appeared on her face, while Gao Hai outside the room was also listening quietly, listening to the confession that this awkward girl refused to tell her face to face.

"I am very grateful to the master. It was he who saved the eldest lady who had a tragic fate. It was he who saved me."

"It has always been hard for me to believe that the master who has gone through so much suffering can still maintain an appearance that is almost ordinary, and his temperament has not changed drastically due to the power he has mastered. Master, he is considerate and caring for me , and completely different from the eldest lady who always doesn’t know how to cherish me. Speaking of which, I slept all morning today. The reason why I am lazy is because of my master’s compulsion. If I were the eldest lady, she would definitely not be able to understand my hardships. So I think, in addition to the most important thing about my master saving me, my master is willing to understand me and be willing to accommodate me in my life. I will find ways to make me happy and relax, which actually makes me happy.”

"If there are more reasons, well, I can't seem to think of them at the moment. I just like the feeling of being with the master, so maybe...that's it, right?"

There was an imperceptible hesitation in Xiao Ai's voice.

There was no lie in her words, there was no doubt that the emotion was sincere, and there was nothing wrong with that.

I like the master, I really like the master.

The girl said to herself in her heart.

However, for the master who cares about him so much, he...

She couldn't help but recall what happened in the copy of [Infant Crying Village] again, recalling the Andres blessing link that she had not been able to successfully establish with Gao Hai so far.

Maybe it’s my heart that’s not sincere enough after all? He was the betrayer of the eldest lady from the beginning, but now that he no longer has to betray anyone, he thinks that he can forget everything and be with the person he likes. However, in the end, he still cannot escape the inferiority complex in his heart and cannot reveal all his feelings. This kind of self is really useless.

"In this case, Xiao Ai is not actually a maid at all, right? After all, although you call him master, you actually treat him less and less as a master, but as someone you can rely on, someone you can put down your burden and rely on. The target, isn’t it?”

Then, Xiao Ai felt her mother's fingers gently poke her cheek, and there was a bit of teasing in the other person's voice.

"Hey, this...this..."

The girl who had something exposed by her mother was a little panicked for a moment.

"Besides, you are obviously relying on the other person wholeheartedly, but you still have reservations, aren't you?"

And the next words that came out of her own mother's mouth made Xiao Ai freeze up.

"Miss Kaguya now controls the Shinomiya family. No matter Master Huangguang, the master or anyone else, they can no longer harm her. Hayasaka was originally forced to split into different parts because of several heirs of the Shinomiya family. The family is no longer restrained and can act as a complete unit again, and you no longer need to report the situation every day. This is undoubtedly a good thing, isn't it?

Hayasaka Nao sighed, holding Little Ai and rocking her gently, as if the grown-up girl in her arms was actually still a child.

"I finally got rid of the burden of the past, but I still have knots in my heart. You are still the same as before, a little kid with many secrets in your heart."

"I...is not..."

Xiao Ai, who was criticized by her mother, puffed up her face, but couldn't find the words to refute, so she could only protest weakly.

"Do you think that, after all, you are a betrayer and you are not qualified to get Mr. Gao's attention like your eldest lady? I remember that you helped Miss Kaguya with suggestions more than once. Is there any idea of ​​making amends in it? ? Do you think that helping her a few more times will alleviate your guilt? "

However, as her mother's words gradually deepened, Xiao Ai shrank into a ball and completely lost her ability to resist.

"Including getting along with Mr. Gao, you can't accept his kindness to you with peace of mind. You always feel that you are inferior, but you can't help but enjoy this feeling. As a result, you become more and more entangled in your heart, and the more entangled you are, the less you can say. Speaking from the bottom of my heart, the result is always stuck.”

"I guess Mr. Gao should have realized this, but he is willing to accommodate you. If you don't want to say it, he won't ask. But this won't work. In the final analysis, he has more choices than you. You are unwilling to open your heart knot, and you don't let him open it. Why should he keep bowing to you, and why should you continue to call him master in this situation."

"Really, I thought Miss Kaguya's recent performance was stupid enough, but my daughter turned out to be even stupider than her. How did you become like this? You are just a little fool."

At the end, seeing that her daughter was about to cry out of grievance, Hayasaka Nao had to sigh, stop and hug her again.

"I... I will never be as stupid as the eldest lady..."

And Xiao Ai's reply, which took a long time to hold back, almost made Hayasaka Nao laugh on the spot, but in the end, it was this point that was refuted. Alas, my daughter is completely spoiled. I didn't expect her to become like this after falling in love.

As for Hayasaka Ai, who was almost autistic, she was rubbing the corners of her eyes that were about to shed tears, and she was sighing in her heart that her mother was so powerful that she could see through her completely, and she was silently thankful that such a shameful side of her was not seen by Gao Hai.

However, maybe it would be better to be seen and heard?

After all, even if her mother pointed out her knot in person, Hayasaka Ai probably still didn't have the courage to say it. Even if she could guess the master's reaction to some extent, and knew that he might not mind at all, and would comfort her in return, she still couldn't do it.

So, if he knew it by chance, maybe...

{Well, I heard it and saw it. Your mother is right, you are really a fool}

The next moment, the voice directly transmitted from Gao Hai's mental power to Xiao Ai's heart made her movements stiff in an instant.

"Xiao Ai?"

Noticing her daughter's sudden abnormality, Hayasaka Nao was stunned, and then heard the sound of the restaurant door being pushed open again. Gao Hai and Hayasaka Masato returned to the restaurant after chatting.

Hayasaka Ai didn't raise her head.

Even though she could feel Gao Hai's gaze, she still didn't raise her head to look at him.

"We have almost finished talking here. I thought I could do something, but now it seems that we can only choose to watch. However, the support of the Hayasaka family will be further strengthened. If Nao and I are in charge, we can mobilize more resources."

Hayasaka Masato, who didn't know that Gao Hai was eavesdropping on Xiao Ai's side while chatting with him, was still talking about business.

"Thank you very much. After all, it is a city with tens of millions of people taking refuge. The more supplies, the better."

During the conversation, Gao Hai's footsteps were also slowly approaching the girl.

One step, two steps.

Ah, it's no good. He has already known it. He will come over now.

If the current master asks, then I...

"Xiao Ai? Huh?"

Hayasaka Nao, who was gently shaken off by the girl, was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously.

Hayasaka Ai, who did not intend to answer, made a very Shinomiya Kaguya-style move at this moment.

Chapter 37: True heart-to-heart with Hayasaka Ai and new blessing links

Gao Hai must admit that he felt quite happy after seeing Hayasaka Ai's escape, and had a strange sense of pleasure as if he had seen Kaguya No. 2.

Especially after the other party directly smashed the restaurant glass, jumped more than ten meters high to the roof of a residential house and started parkour, Gao Hai almost covered his face and laughed out loud.

Of course, he reacted and chased after her immediately, and before leaving, he did not forget to say goodbye to his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, and used his mental power to repair the windows and roofs that Xiao Ai had damaged. And this scene of showing extraordinary power without any taboos also forced the couple who wanted to keep up to stop helplessly and accept the reality that they could not participate in the next thing at all.

"Extraordinary power, ghost story games, I always feel that this world is becoming more and more unfamiliar, how can it suddenly become like this..."

Looking at the two figures that had disappeared outside the window, Hayasaka Masato couldn't help but sighed in a low voice.

"Anyway, I'm afraid there's not much we can do. I never thought our daughter would change so much without us noticing. Well, dear, now that we know these things, we can't do it the same as usual. The Hayasaka family, we must mobilize all of us next."

Nao Hayasaka gently held her husband's hand and said to him very seriously.

"You're right. I thought that the Shinomiya family's style began to gradually improve after Miss Kaguya took over, and there was no need to consider carefully. Now it seems that there is really no time to rest. I can only tire my old bones again."

Masato Hayasaka said this while smiling and taking out his mobile phone to contact his subordinates and relatives.

At this moment, the two of them could not imagine what the day of destruction that had not yet arrived would look like. After all, for unprecedented things, only when you really see them can you understand what it is like.

But no matter what, the Hayasaka couple who have chosen to accept it will naturally not choose to sit and wait for death.

As for Hayasaka Ai and Gao Hai, who had already run a kilometer or two away, their pursuit was almost over. Gao Hai, whose physical fitness has been completely maxed out and has stronger blessing power, is still much more agile than Xiao Ai. As long as he gets serious, the girl will naturally have no chance of getting rid of him.

However, although it was very easy to catch up with the opponent, seeing how this guy was completely berserk at this time, Gao Hai felt that it was better to adopt a more cautious attitude to avoid overstimulating Xiao Ai.

"It's almost time to stop. There's no need to run around like this. Can't we have a good chat with each other?"

Gao Hai, who slowed down slightly, said to the girl in front who was still trying to escape.

"..."

Hayasaka Ai had no intention of answering. She just continued to look for opportunities to escape, constantly passing through tall buildings one after another, and she could jump tens of meters away with a single jump.

On the road below, the pedestrians and vehicles passing by were completely oblivious, and they could not see the two figures passing by on the roof of the building above.

During the continuous leap, the girl's golden hair gradually became messy and spread out, and the girl's own breathing rhythm gradually became disordered. But from beginning to end, she still refused to stop and face Gao Hai behind her.

This kind of look is really unprecedented.

Looking at the panicked Xiao Ai in front of him, Gao Hai couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

To be honest, it felt quite troublesome. It felt like I was dealing with a stubborn girl who was difficult to coax.

However, this look is exactly the true side of herself that she showed.

It is completely different from the disguised appearance in previous performances. It is the true appearance of Hayasaka Ai without any cover-up.

Just like how she dropped everything and acted coquettishly when facing her mother, after tonight's heart-to-heart conversation between the four of them, this girl finally couldn't act anymore in front of Gao Hai and fully revealed her true side. .

It feels quite interesting.

But if you continue running like this, your time tonight will be completely wasted.

Whoosh——

Gao Hai, who decided not to continue playing, sped up the next moment and passed Xiao Ai in the blink of an eye and stood in front of her.

"Okay, you can stop now."

Speaking like this, Gao Hai stretched out his arms and hugged Xiao Ai directly in his arms.

"..."

Even at this moment, the shame-ridden girl still wanted to run away. But Gao Hai's strength was obviously far stronger than hers, so after trying to struggle for a moment, Hayasaka Ai could only lean into his arms helplessly, burying her head in his chest and pretending to be an ostrich.

"Do you really not want to talk to me?"

Gao Hai, standing on top of a skyscraper hundreds of meters high, asked while holding the girl in his arms while smiling.

"……No."

After a while, Gao Hai vaguely heard the girl's muffled response from his arms.

"Then why did you run away? I originally thought that only Kaguya would do such a thing."

Of course, if you must count, you can actually add the true concubine. However, she only ran away twice before the Red Nut Gray Cave Dungeon. Since Qianhua joined, she has not escaped again, or even if she had the idea of ​​​​escape, she has not succeeded.

"It's just... I don't know how to face the master... I didn't want the master to hear these things..."

After hesitating, Xiao Ai slowly began to speak in a low voice. His voice was so low that it was almost impossible to hear him clearly, and he refused to raise his head and look at Gao Hai from beginning to end, and he hugged Gao Hai tighter and tighter.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it. No matter what kind of knot you have, you have to talk it out before we can understand each other, right?"

Lowering his head, Gao Hai buried his cheek in the girl's hair while whispering in her ear.

"I have never thought of blaming you, nor have I been unhappy with your previous follow-up investigation actions, nor have I ever been angry with you."

"It would be better to say that I actually liked you from the beginning. After all, you are very cute."

"So, stop putting pressure on yourself. Whatever you want to do, just do it. As players, we must cherish every day we live and should not let our hearts be in bondage. I will accompany you tomorrow Go to Kaguya and tell her what's in your heart. Believe me, she will never be alienated from you because of this matter. Kaguya won't do that now. "

As he spoke, Gao Hai could feel Xiao Ai's arm holding him shaking slightly.

His chest gradually became moist, and at the same time, he began to hear suppressed sobs, which made his movements to comfort the girl become a little gentler.

So Gao Hai calmed down, just holding Hayasaka Ai in his arms silently, and the two of them stood motionless on the roof of the building.

Maybe a minute or two, maybe more than ten minutes or more than half an hour. Little by little, he felt that the girl in his arms began to calm down. Then, she finally raised her head hesitantly and looked at Gao Hai, and Gao Hai also opened his eyes and looked at him. From the corner of the girl's eyes, Gao Hai could see the tears that had not completely dried up. Although her voice was controlled very well and there was almost no movement, she did cry a few times.

"Is it really okay?"

The girl suddenly lowered her head again, avoiding Gao Hai's gaze, and whispered softly.

"Um?"

Gao Hai, who wasn't quite sure what she was talking about specifically, raised his eyebrows.

"I'm actually... a big laggard for my master, right? I don't have the ability to complete deep links with all kinds of extraordinary powers. I even pushed my master away when he was trying to save me. I couldn't treat my master because of all the knots in my heart. Frankly...is there really no problem in accepting me as I am?”

The girl's voice became weaker and weaker, and she became more and more unconfident.

I really don’t understand what a girl is thinking. I even chased her over and hugged her to comfort her for so long. How could I not be able to accept her?

Maybe this is the case for girls who are insecure. If you think about it carefully, Kaguya is actually not much different. It's just that Kaguya doesn't have such a serious knot in her heart, so after chatting a few times, she can still get along quickly. As for Xiao Ai, it seems that I have to work harder to say a few more words.

"Of course I will accept you. Rather, I should be happy that you can accept me, an unfocused scumbag."

So Gao Hai responded to the girl seriously and kissed her forehead directly.

"Master is not a scumbag. A master who strives to respond to everyone and leads everyone to live is not the same thing as a scumbag. Don't use such derogatory words to talk about yourself. Master, you are actually very great. "

Unexpectedly, Gao Hai was not anxious when he said this, but Hayasaka Ai was a little anxious, and almost immediately retorted loudly.

"Ahaha, I can't be called great by any means. Rather, I have witnessed many great people along the way and received help from many great people. But that kind of thing has nothing to do with what we are discussing now. , there is only one thing I want to say, and that is that the things you are worried about, Xiao Ai, do not exist here. I will never hate you or have any prejudice against you. I like you and I hope. Stay with you, this is what I really think, you just need to understand this is enough."
