Chapter 301

That scene made Yukinoshita's mother's eyes have a bit more gentleness as she recalled it.

This was the first time Yukinoshita Yukino had seen such a gentle expression from her mother since she grew up and had memories. She had to know that in her heart, her mother had always been a proud and noble elder, always in a state of not showing her joy or anger.

But this time, she discovered that her mother was also a woman.

"I thought to myself back then, it's him. I didn't have a man I liked, but at least he would protect me, he wouldn't let me get hurt, he was the best choice in my heart at that time."

So, does a strong woman like her mother also yearn for male protection?

Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but think.

She realized that her mother also had a real side she didn't know about.

"So Yukino, if you meet a boy who is willing to protect you even with his own life, don't refuse too decisively. At least give him a chance, try to contact and interact with him; perhaps you will find unexpected surprises."

Yukinoshita Yukino wanted to refuse.

She had already gotten a huge 'surprise' from Lin Ye, and she didn't want any other surprises at all.

However, her mother had already spoken to this extent, and she really found it hard to open her mouth to refuse.

This was the first time her mother had opened her heart to talk to her, and she didn't want to leave a bad impression on her mother.

The black long-haired girl pursed her lips and pondered for a while, then nodded gently and said in a low voice, "Mother, I will consider it."

"Yukino has grown up."

Yukinoshita's mother had a faint smile on her face.

"Some things, if you don't want to tell me, you can tell Haruno. She is your sister, a sister you can trust."

"Mm."

Whether it was her mother or her sister Haruno, Yukinoshita Yukino actually didn't want to communicate.

Her heart had a certain resistance to her sister and mother, but she also knew that no matter what, they were family, close relatives with an inseparable blood relationship.

If she really encountered a problem that was hard to solve, the first choice she could rely on was her close sister, mother, and father.

"Drink tea! The tea is already cold."

Yukinoshita Yukino then discovered that the tea in the teacup in front of her had already cooled through.

She picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.

The conversation between mother and daughter officially ended.

But for Yukinoshita Yukino, this was the beginning of her troubles.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who walked alone outside the courtyard admiring the blooming flowers, sat on a bench.

She recalled the content of the conversation with her mother and increasingly felt that there must be a real intention hidden in this conversation.

It seemed... it seemed like she hoped she would date Lin Ye?

"No, no, no... that's not possible."

The black long-haired girl shook her head vigorously, and the thought that popped into her mind was immediately denied.

"Perhaps it's really that Mother saw the shadow of Father in Lin Ye's act of saving me, so she felt I should give Lin Ye a chance."

"It must be that Mother knows my life and study state at Sobu High and doesn't want me to continue being alone until graduation, so she thought of using 'love' to change me!"

But this made Yukino feel helpless, and at the same time, a warm current of happiness filled her heart.

She had always held a distant attitude toward her mother, not because she hated her mother, but because she couldn't get used to the daily interaction with her mother.

But even so, facing her mother's concern, she was still happy and glad from the bottom of her heart.

"Mother and sister are really alike!"

Because of this method, she felt the person most likely to do it was her sister Haruno; she didn't expect it to be her mother this time.

A breeze blew, the fragrance of grass, and the faint scent of flowers permeated.

The black long-haired girl's hair fluttered with the wind, the strands outlining an arc, but her eyes were filled with a happiness not seen in daily life, and the corners of her mouth also raised slightly.

In this residence where she had lived for more than ten years,

She had long-awaited a moment of joy.

But when the joyful emotion receded and she realized what she had to do, the girl's face immediately slumped and became heavy.

"Invite him to the Yukinoshita house,"

"Would he be willing to come?"

She had never invited a member of the opposite sex to be a guest at home.

The first invitation to a member of the opposite sex in her life, it was hard not to be unaccustomed, and she felt psychological pressure.

Once she thought about having to open her mouth to Lin Ye to issue an invitation, she immediately felt shy, and her slender fingers clenched the skirt hem without realizing it.

Would Lin Ye misunderstand?

He should... right?

Then what should she do? Explain to Lin Ye in advance and tell Lin Ye not to misunderstand? Or something else?

The black long-haired girl was troubled, not knowing what she should do.

……

……

On the morning of the 21st,

Haruno completed the work of transferring money and paying taxes.

Ten billion in funds,

The relevant procedures were very troublesome, but with the assistance of the personnel arranged by the Aocheng big casino, the process went very quickly.

After completing the tax work, all procedures were not a problem.

The news that a God of Gamblers had won a full ten billion from the 'Aocheng big casino' last night had already spread through the streets and alleys of Aocheng.

Many people were curious,

And some even speculated that the Aocheng big casino would use some illegal means to avoid the loss of huge funds.

And many forces, including the Aocheng official side, were paying attention.

However, the result was very surprising and jaw-dropping; the Aocheng big casino actually gave the money honestly, and also cooperated with the transfer and tax work, with no problems in the relevant processes.

They really gave the money.

This is ten billion!

They just gave it like that?

Is the boss of the Aocheng big casino crazy!

Ten million can buy who knows how many lives, and ten billion can buy how many lives.

"Miss Miko, Mr. Gao, the relevant procedures have been completed. I don't know what plans you two have next. If you are preparing to leave Aocheng, we will dispatch security personnel to escort you to the airport."

"Then that will trouble you."

"It's no trouble. If something happens to you and Miss Miko in Aocheng, our company will feel troubled."

It's hard to avoid people with ulterior motives throwing the blame on the Aocheng big casino.

Following the relevant personnel of the Aocheng big casino, Lin Ye and Yukinoshita Haruno got into a black sedan.

There were a total of three sedans in front and behind the sedan.

Lin Ye didn't completely trust the staff arranged by the Aocheng big casino either; it was the simplest thing to do to commit murder for money for ten billion.

He had also been on guard all along.

It was just that the money had already been successfully transferred to the account arranged by Yukinoshita Haruno, and now even if the Aocheng big casino wanted to commit murder for money, they couldn't get the money.

In the car,

Lin Ye asked the female assistant in the passenger seat, "Miss Li, did your company really never think of using some methods to keep this ten billion?"

"You're joking. Our company has always been honest. You and Miss Miko won this ten billion relying on your own skills, so our company is naturally willing to admit defeat. Of course, we also hope that Miss Miko can take care of our company's business more often and come to our casino for entertainment."

"That's possible!"

Haruno smiled and hugged Lin Ye's arm.

"If I come with Little Brother, I will definitely come."

The female assistant's eyes trembled. "As for Mr. Gao, I think it's better to go to other casinos! However, if you come to our casino, we will definitely prepare the best tea."

"It seems I'm already on the blacklist."

"How could that be."

The female assistant denied it repeatedly.

Some things, even if they have been done, cannot be admitted.

"Actually, strictly speaking, our casino didn't lose much." ===== CHAPTER 302 =====
