Hoshino igetsu said, "Of course, I have to tell outsiders the truth. If they knew it was , I guess I'd never hear about these things in my lifeti."
Asou Keigo was imdiately embarrassed, his face turning ashen. If this got out, the Asou Family wouldn't be able to survive in the Ittō-ryū.
"Since that's the case, I don't want to say anything else. Even if I don't say it, you should already know. Everyone wants to move upwards, and of course, the Asou Family wants to rise as well.
You've seen it, the Hoshino Family is currently on a decline. As long as our Asou Family works hard, we can surely beco the largest family in the Ittō-ryū. But I remain solely loyal to the Ittō-ryū at all tis.
I have no intention to harm you; it's just that I have considered the Asou Family more."
Hoshino igetsu said, "I don't need to say anything else. I already know about this. Do you have anything more to say?"
Asou Keigo said dejectedly, "I have nothing else to say. If you want to report to the Council, then go ahead. I admit those were my words."
Hoshino igetsu thought for a mont and said, "Right now, the Ittō-ryū needs people, so let's put this matter aside. I hope you can contribute to the Ittō-ryū instead of always being cautious."
Asou Keigo was very surprised, "You're not going to report to the Council?"
Hoshino igetsu said, "Not everyone is as small-minded as you. You may leave."
Asou Keigo was overjoyed, thanking them repeatedly, and then left with his people, sowhat crestfallen.
Ling Zhenfei, having watched this whole scene, was deeply moved. Although they belonged to the sa school, the internal strife was intense, proving that intrigue occurs everywhere.
"Alright, Mr. Ling, the truth is out, but I still have to trouble you to stay here temporarily. I will convince the Council as soon as possible to release you," Hoshino igetsu said sheepishly.
"It's alright. I find this place quite nice, so I will stay here," Ling Zhenfei said with a smile.
Hoshino igetsu's expression faltered as she said, "I'm really sorry to have troubled you."
"It's okay. Don't forget to soak Mr. Hoshino's dicine, as there's a possibility for recovery," Ling Zhenfei reminded Hoshino igetsu.
Hoshino igetsu nodded, then walked away with a hint of disappointnt.
After Hoshino igetsu left, Hoshino Junka ca out.
"Brother-in-law, you're really impressive. Your analysis just now was brilliant," Hoshino Junka didn't hold back in praising Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei was a bit taken aback. Didn't Hoshino Junka realize that his relationship with Hoshino igetsu wasn't that intimate?
"It's alright. It's getting late, shouldn't you also be leaving?"
Hoshino Junka thought for a mont and said, "Or maybe I'll stay with you tonight?"
Ling Zhenfei glanced around the cell and said, "Look around this cell. Besides this bed-like thing, is there anything worth sticking around for?"
Hoshino Junka chuckled, "You're here, and you're the most worth sticking around for."
Needless to say, Hoshino Junka was bold, saying whatever ca to mind.
"What makes worth your staying?"
Hoshino Junka rolled her eyes and said, "There are many reasons. To start, you're handso, strong, great at dical Arts, a wonderful cook, and very intelligent."
"Just for these reasons, I'm worth your sticking around? Don't let fool you. I'm all about deception," Ling Zhenfei said, teasing Hoshino Junka.
Actually, Ling Zhenfei was very clear: he didn't want to develop any ties here and wished to return to Huaxia soon. Moreover, Hoshino Junka was a Little Witch. Who knew what she might do?
Hoshino Junka said incredulously, "So what is the real you like?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a mont and said, "I'm a very selfish person, a philanderer, sotis even simple-minded."
Hoshino Junka said, "Everyone is selfish; that's called self-love. Being a philanderer ans you're popular with won and have the charm that makes them fall for you. Simple-minded reflects your kindness."
Ling Zhenfei was startled, not expecting what he considered flaws to be seen as virtues by Hoshino Junka.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Stop overthinking. It's getting late. You should head back."
Hoshino Junka was a bit dissatisfied, "Are you despising ?"
Ling Zhenfei quickly said, "How could that be? Don't say that. You're so pretty and cute; no one would despise you."
Hoshino Junka said angrily, "You are despising . You must like my sister, so you're despising , right? Don't think I didn't notice; nothing happened between you and my sister, did it?"
This Hoshino Junka was indeed a Little Witch, seeing everything clearly.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Okay, since you've noticed, nothing happened with your sister and , at most just holding hands and hugging."
Hoshino Junka said, "Then hug too."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Is that alright?"
Hoshino Junka said, "I don't care, I just want you to hug ."
Knowing the cell door wasn't locked, she pushed it open and walked over to Ling Zhenfei.
What could Ling Zhenfei do but hold Hoshino Junka in his arms?
Hoshino Junka was pleased, laughing as she said, "I'm not like my sister, who knows nothing. We're already hugging, might as well kiss."
Ling Zhenfei hesitated, "Is that alright?"
Hoshino Junka said, "We're already hugging; don't you feel sothing's missing if we don't kiss?"
Ling Zhenfei was briefly speechless, and just then, Hoshino Junka's lips t his. Since it had co to this, Ling Zhenfei felt he had to act or it wouldn't seem right.
So they kissed, and kissing is the best catalyst. Before long, Ling Zhenfei felt slightly reactive.
Having been in Japan for many days, holding back all this ti, and surrounded by beauties he couldn't touch, it was indeed frustrating.
Ling Zhenfei was excited, and Hoshino Junka was excited. They hugged tighter, nearly crossing a line.
Ling Zhenfei pushed Hoshino Junka away, suppressing the urge, or they might really cross a line in that cell.
"What's wrong, why stop?" Hoshino Junka asked, her eyes still hopeful.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, let's stop here. So things shouldn't happen."
"Why not!" Hoshino Junka asked, unwilling to accept.
