Chapter 338

Akaso Kaze suddenly gasped.

It was simply too dangerous.

If things continued like this, an incident was inevitable.

He secretly got up and left the tent.

Haibara Ai watched his back, unable to help covering her mouth to giggle.

Akaso Kaze walked out of the tent and wandered around for a while; the impulse in his heart finally subsided.

Although this open space was a pebble beach, the stones were smooth, and a clear, slowly flowing stream ran alongside it.

It was evident that this stream had once been larger; perhaps it was a great river, or perhaps a pond.

The water flow had polished the stones, and only after the water volume gradually decreased was such a pebble beach left behind.

The grill and stove were set up on the pebble beach, and not far away were a road, a row of wind-blocking trees, and a large patch of grass where tents could be pitched.

This was a fine campsite.

Just as Akaso Kaze was admiring the scenery, a soft, delicate voice sounded behind him.

"Lord Akaso, thank you for earlier."

Akaso Kaze turned around to see the quiet Tian Tian Tangqinghua standing behind him.

"How do you know who I am?" Akaso Kaze asked.

"I saw it on the internet. Every night, I search for news about you..."

As Tian Tian Tangqinghua spoke, her face flushed slightly.

In fact, Akaso Kaze could be considered her dream lover; sometimes she would even dream of him...

"How did Lord Akaso know my name?"

Tian Tian Tangqinghua's face was full of curiosity and a hint of expectation.

The corners of Akaso Kaze's mouth curled up.

"Have you forgotten who I am? I am the strongest Yin-Yang Master in Tokyo, and I also know that you are going to kill someone today."

"What? You, you knew?"

Tian Tian Tangqinghua's face turned deathly pale, and she took two steps back, her heel hitting a stone, nearly falling.

Akaso Kaze reached out and pulled her over.

Tian Tian Tangqinghua leaned into his embrace, looking up with a pitiful expression, and said, "Lord Akaso, are you here to arrest me?"

Feeling the trembling body in his arms, Akaso Kaze smiled.

"You haven't done anything yet, why would I arrest you?"

"However, I am curious, how did you end up like this?"

Tears welled up in Tian Tian Tangqinghua's eyes as she softly began to tell her past.

She had always been a girl with a good personality and a pretty appearance.

Perhaps because her personality was too good and she was attractive, or perhaps because her family was poor but she attended an expensive private school, she had invited the jealousy of some classmates.

Everyone rumored that her family was poor.

Tian Tian Tangqinghua had always kept herself very tidy.

It was just that while many girls had two water cups to rotate, she only ever had that one.

It was just that while other girls changed into different clothes again and again, she only had those few outfits that she washed and wore repeatedly.

So in middle school, her classmates looked down on her and mocked her.

This made Tian Tian Tangqinghua very insecure; she didn't make a single friend throughout middle school.

After entering university, Tian Tian Tangqinghua hoped to change herself, which was why she pretended to be a wealthy girl.

To maintain her image, she even had to use her spare time to work several jobs to earn money.

"I am actually just an ordinary university student from the countryside, with nothing special about me. That is why, if I don't pretend to be rich, no one would be willing to be friends with me at all."

"I am really exhausted."

After speaking the secret in her heart, Tian Tian Tangqinghua suddenly let out a sigh of relief; she felt much lighter.

She had hidden this secret in her heart for many years.

It had started from the moment she first arrived in this bustling city, and until now, after graduating from university, it had always been hidden in her heart.

Counting it up, it had been four or five years.

If it weren't for meeting Akaso Kaze, she felt this secret would have remained in the deepest part of her heart, and no one would ever know.

Tian Tian Tangqinghua slowly leaned her head against Akaso Kaze.

"I worked desperately to earn money, and even had to borrow from others, just to be able to afford this very expensive camper van, all so I could take everyone out to enjoy the scenery."

"This kind of life is really hard, but in order to make friends, I have been persisting."

"Before I heard those words from Taimei's mouth, I always thought they were my best friends..."

Perhaps that memory was too painful for Tian Tian Tangqinghua; as she spoke to this point, she closed her eyes, her eyebrows tightly furrowed, and she pressed her hand against Akaso Kaze's chest, slowly rubbing it.

After calming her emotions slightly, Tian Tian Tangqinghua continued: "That day, I was preparing to go to our club's activity room. Just as I reached the door, I heard Taimei's voice."

"Do you know? That woman is actually not some young lady from a wealthy family at all; she has been lying to us the whole time."

In the activity room, Bai Teng Taimei held a drink in her hand and spoke to Fupu Fupu Lingzhi and Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren in a tone that sounded like she was showing off.

"I felt something was off before, and after following her, I was right. Guess where this wealthy young lady lives?"

Without waiting for the other two to answer, Bai Teng Taimei directly revealed the answer.

"This young lady actually lives in a dilapidated apartment."

After saying this, Bai Teng Taimei could not help but laugh out loud.

"If that's the case, does that mean I've been kept in the dark by her for four years?" Fupu Fupu Lingzhi leaned forward and said with great dissatisfaction.

"Since that's the case, Taimei, you should just tell her clearly and tell her to stop lying," Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren advised. "You are her good friend, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Bai Teng Taimei laughed out loud again.

Afterwards, Bai Teng Taimei took a sip of the drink in her hand, leaned back in her chair, shook her head, and said very comfortably.

"Good friend? Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren, don't joke around. She is just a cash cow."

"Otherwise, how could I have pretended not to know for four years?"

After saying this, Bai Teng Taimei laughed again.

"To be honest, it's really hard to hold back from laughing."

"I don't think that's very good," Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren frowned and continued to advise. "I think it's better to make things clear with Tiantang Tiantang Qinghua."

"Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren, are you stupid?"

Hearing this, Bai Teng Taimei rolled her eyes at Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren and said, "Besides, have you thought about the consequences that might arise after telling her clearly?"

"What consequences could there be? We've been friends for so many years; at most, we'll just apologize to her and treat her to a big meal," Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren had not considered this aspect of things.

"Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren, think about it seriously. If we tell her and she turns the tables on us, asking us to pay back all the money we spent of hers, what should we do?" Bai Teng Taimei asked.

"Should we pay it back or not? Also, it's been four years. If we have to pay it back, how much should we pay, and do we even have that much money?"

"This..." Fanhe Fanhe Fanhe Tuoren shook his head and said, "I don't think Tiantang Tiantang Qinghua is that kind of person; she wouldn't do that."

"You can know a person's face but not their heart. Some people act one way to your face and another behind your back," Bai Teng Taimei curled her lips in disdain. "How do you know she hasn't been badmouthing us behind our backs?"

"Maybe this young lady is calling the three of us parasites who only know how to spend her money for fun behind our backs!"

As she spoke, Bai Teng Taimei shook the drink in her hand and pointed to the various snacks on the table, saying, "Look, these things were all bought with the activity funds she sponsored."

"We don't even know how much of this stuff we've bought over these four years. Also, when we went to Hawaii for vacation before, it was all spent on her money."

"If we really calculate it, we've spent a lot of her money. If she finds out the truth and really makes us pay it back, we, as university students who just graduated, won't be able to pay it."

"However, Fupu Lingzhi, you are really unlucky," Bai Teng Taimei turned to Fupu Fupu Lingzhi and said, "to have set your sights on a fake like her."

"If I'm not mistaken, you had ulterior motives when you met her, right? Come to think of it, it's really a bit of a pity."

"Yeah, so disappointed!" Fupu Fupu Lingzhi leaned back slightly in his chair and sighed. "I originally thought I could catch a big fish."

"As a result, this big fish is actually not even as good as a small shrimp," Bai Teng Taimei took a sip of her drink and teased with a smile.

"That's what I mean. I didn't expect my judgment to be off this time," Fupu Fupu Lingzhi showed an undisguised expression of disappointment, shook his head, and said.

0 .. 0

"It seems like after graduation, it's time to say bye-bye to her!"

"However, during the time before saying bye-bye to her, we still have to let that Young Lady Tiantang Tiantang Qinghua contribute properly."

"That's true, hahaha."
