"Xiao Mi..."
Shiyu held Erkang's hand and watched the little orange cat eating voraciously, the corners of her mouth twitching.
Kato Megumi was startled, and her pale yellow eyes widened as she looked at Chu Hai who was almost unable to hold the water cup steady.
"Do you bring cat food when you visit someone's house at sea?"
"I don't know... I don't have a cat at home..." Chuhai held his forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
For some reason, Eriri looked at the cat snacks with a look of disappointment.
Bai Ye was also stunned. If he wasn't worried about the girls taking revenge on him later, he would really give a thumbs up to Akane Benizaka for her ingenuity.
“Meow meow——!”
Xiao Mi was very happy with the meal. After finishing, she rubbed against Akane Hongsaka's feet reluctantly. She looked at the cat strips with her little eyes, then turned to look at Akane Hongsaka, as if to say that she wanted more.
Akane Hongsaka touched Xiaomi tentatively, and couldn't help but smile when she saw it gradually becoming intimate with her.
"Be good, be good, don't eat too many snacks, or your master will be angry."
She was right.
Shiyu had a smile on her face, but she was actually thinking MMP inside.
"You little fat orange who only cares about milk. I feed you and play with you every day and even find you a wife, but you betray me just for a cat pie?!"
But what's the point of taking out my anger on Xiao Mi? Xiao Mi can't understand what I'm saying.
If you want to vent your anger on someone, it should be on the poop scooper. Look at how shameless it is to educate the little cat to be a fickle cat!
"Aren't you touched, Shiro-kun? Akane-senpai's gift was especially thoughtful of you."
How could Bai Ye dare to act rashly? The dark energy in Shi Yu's eyes was about to burst out!
"Don't dare to move, don't dare to move."
"Ye Jun doesn't like my gift?" Hongban Zhuyin looked disappointed.
"I don't dislike it. Thank you for caring about Xiao Mi. Look, all of your care has turned into this chubby little orange's belly."
Bai Ye felt physically and mentally exhausted.
"Everyone in this harem is always good at causing trouble... Oh! I made a mistake. Akane-senpai is not my harem, but her ability to cause trouble is almost the same as Shiyu and the others."
In order to prevent things from developing out of control, Bai Ye quickly changed the subject.
"What else did Akane-senpai buy? Looks like there's something good?"
“Just some ingredients.”
Ingredients?
Kato Megumi's chest heaved, and her neck moved horizontally like an emotionless robot as she looked at Bai Ye, without a single tremor.
Then, smile.
Everyone present understood what it meant to bring your own food to someone else's house.
"Speaking of which, what would you like to eat tonight, Bai Yejun? If you need me, I'll prepare it now."
"Xiao Hui, don't be busy yet!"
Bai Ye quickly stood up and gently pushed her back onto the cushion, wanting to use his all-powerful kiss to suppress her jealousy, but he was too embarrassed to do so with Akane Benizaka present.
"I'll need you for some serious business later. I really need you."
Kato Megumi seemed not to hear it, her eyes fixed on the plastic bag brought by Akasaka Akane.
"Um, what are you planning on eating tonight, Akane-senpai?"
Byakuya(ノ○Д○)ノ
Xiaohui, listen to me!!!
Chapter 847: Hongzaka Akane's Little Thoughts
The atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. Everyone seemed to see flashes of swords and the sound of clashing swords.
Bai Ye touched his face expressionlessly. For some reason, he felt a sharp pain on his face as if it was being cut by a knife. He couldn't help but sigh and hold his forehead.
"Kitchen knives are for cooking. When will swords be turned into plowshares?"
Hongzaka Akane smiled and waved her hand to disperse the undercurrent in the atmosphere.
"I feel like everyone is very wary of my visit. Don't worry. I have no intention of snatching Ye Jun away. Besides, everyone believes in Ye Jun's integrity. If he keeps on being on edge, he will be sad and upset."
As soon as these words were spoken, the girls all looked at Bai Ye. After noticing his embarrassed expression, they realized that they had gone too far.
Bai Ye has stated many times that he and Hongzaka Akane have no secrets to hide, and every time he comes back he will tell them everything about the meeting in detail. If everyone still refuses to give in, it really means that they don't trust him.
The most taboo thing in love is suspicion.
Shiyu closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, not only had the jealousy in her eyes completely disappeared, but a hint of apology also appeared in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Shiro-kun."
Bai Ye smiled and shook his head, kissed her forehead, and then touched her long black hair, indicating that the matter was over.
As for the kisses from others, I will return them tonight.
At the same time, Bai Ye did not forget to secretly give a look of gratitude to Hongzaka Akane. Even though this matter was caused by the other party, it was hard to say who was right or wrong when it came to jealousy.
Hongzaka Akane smiled slightly and continued to explain:
"I bought these ingredients for myself. I brought them here because I was worried they would get spoiled in the car."
The girls nodded, ignoring the fact that winter was approaching and fruits and vegetables might not spoil so easily if left in the car.
……
This farce took about half an hour. Seeing that the clock was about to strike 5 p.m., Bai Ye hurriedly stopped chatting.
"Senpai Akane, let's talk business first. It won't be good if we stay up too late. The sun sets later and later as the weather cools down."
"No problem." Akane Benizaka picked up the bag.
"Shiyu and Eriri, if you don't mind our chattering, just go do your own thing. We can do the club activities later. You don't have to worry about Akane-senpai peeking in. She promised me she wouldn't tell anyone."
"Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy."
Kato Megumi sat next to Baiye, and together with Benizaka Akane, they surrounded Baiye.
"Bai Yejun, the information is here."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Ye patted her hands, then put the information aside and turned to look at Hongzaka Akane.
"What did Akane-senpai find out?"
"Ye Jun is very vigilant." Hongsaka Zhuyin looked at the information that was some distance away from her.
"It's okay for everyone to see some things, because Shiyu and the others don't involve this area, but it's different for you, Senior Zhu Yin. On the one hand, it's my responsibility to the client, and on the other hand, it's a recognition of your ability."
"Hmm, Ye Jun is really good at coaxing people with his mouth." Hongzaka Zhuyin was not annoyed.
After investigating Nohara Daishi, she also had a glimpse into the matter. She knew it well, so there was no need to say it out loud.
"You take a look at this first."
Bai Ye took the business card handed to him by Hongzaka Akane, and at the first glance he felt a thread connecting the scattered clues.
"I've never heard of a multi-department company."
"I've researched this as well. It's a small commodity agency. It's been open for only about a year, and isn't well-known in the industry. However..."
"But what?" Bai Ye knew the point was coming.
"They have sufficient funds, unlike a small operation run by a few partners. Furthermore, the quality of the products is pretty good."
"understood."
Bai Ye's face darkened.
According to the investigation of Ms. Kato Megumi and Ms. Yoriko, although Nohara Daishi holds a management position in Tanaka Company and his salary is not low, his wealth is probably not enough to support him to become a shareholder of a company.
However, he could not make a judgment on this.
There is also the possibility of becoming a shareholder and investing in technology. Moreover, according to Bai Ye's investigation in the past few days, it is not only Nohara Daishi who has problems in Tanaka Company.
"And..." Akane Benizaka stretched out the last syllable.
"And what?"
"I have some personal information, although it is slightly beyond the scope of Ye Jun's commission, but do you want to know?" Hongzaka Zhuyin smiled in a daze.
Bai Ye knew that this was an excuse, and Hongzaka Akane just wanted to take more rewards out of his pocket.
"I will definitely have a share of people's hearts in the future."
"Then I'll remember it~"
Akane Hongsaka smoothed her bangs and said:
"Nohara Daishi is quite generous. I asked him to come to RougeonRouge at 10 o'clock this morning to discuss things, and he ended up bringing coffee and milk tea for everyone in the club. He only bought expensive brands, which is quite like you, Ye Jun."
"I'll bring coffee and milk tea, but why do I feel like you're implying that Nohara Daishi is a big jerk? Am I the kind of person who only buys expensive things instead of the right ones?"
"Hahaha, I didn't say that." Hongzaka Akane couldn't help laughing.
Bai Ye finally understood the hidden meaning in her words. She was implying that Nohara Daishi was a nouveau riche.
Once people suddenly have more money than they dared to imagine they could have before, they are likely to fall into the mentality of a nouveau riche. Simply put, they only buy expensive things instead of the right ones, and use this to show off and prove that they are superior to others.
On the contrary, Bai Ye does not have a nouveau riche mentality, or rather, because of his nouveau riche mentality, he was sent to Neon by his family to gain experience alone.
Now, he lives however he feels comfortable. Apart from two necessary brand-name suits to show off, he spends the most on food.
"What business does Nohara Daishi want to discuss with you?"
"They're advertising in paperbacks, selling small commodities, and they want to sponsor the next RougeonRouge comic exhibition. I won't go into the other details." Akane Benizaka took a sip of tea.
"It's so rich..."
At this point, Bai Ye also understood the situation.
"Nohara Daishi is worried about having money but nowhere to spend it..."
"That's about the situation." Akane Benizaka stood up and patted her butt.
Just when everyone thought she was going to leave, she said lightly.
"I'm going to use the bathroom."
"Please feel free to do so."
Bai Ye combined the information about Akane Benizaka with the currently known information to draw a clue map on a white paper, and then asked Kato Megumi to find information about the "Multi-system Company".
At this time, Akane Hongsaka came out of the bathroom, her footsteps were so light that no one noticed her.
Looking at everyone concentrating on their work, she quietly sat back next to Bai Ye and took out a few documents from her bag to start processing them.
However, not everyone noticed Hongzaka Akane's little move.
For example, Kato Megumi, who has sharp eyes, a keen gaze, and can do two things at the same time.
She had been paying attention to every move of Akane Benizaka, but she was only observing and had no intention of interfering with her.
However, she was not indifferent. She secretly moved her body closer to Bai Ye until their shoulders touched, and then whispered in his ear:
"Bai Ye-kun, let's do this."
Chapter 848 Stay for a meal, I won’t bully you
"Ask Akane-senpai to stay for a quick meal."
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard Kato Megumi whisper this.
"If Akane-senpai wants to be good friends with you, I don't mind. I feel like Akane-senpai is quite lonely, without any friends who share the same vision and can talk to you."
No matter what others think, Kato Megumi has always believed that humans are social animals. The principle that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality also applies to interpersonal relationships.
Before becoming Bai Ye's girlfriend, she thought it was okay to live alone, but after experiencing the time spent with her lover and friends, she didn't want to go back to being alone.
Bai Ye nodded. He had originally wanted to keep Akane Hongsaka for dinner, and it was getting dark outside, so it would be too unkind to ask Akane Hongsaka to leave at this time.
But not everyone thinks this way. Even if they think this way in their hearts, they will make other choices for their own interests.
