Chapter 743: Fingers intertwined! Revenge succeeded!
Konoe Tong walked out of the studio and paused slightly at the door.
She tilted her head slightly, her gaze sweeping calmly across both sides.
Not long after.
A man in a black suit walked quickly to her.
Konoe Tong handed the rolled-up sketch in her hand to him.
The man in black took the drawing tube with both hands, his movements respectful and swift, without the slightest hesitation or extra words.
He nodded slightly, then turned and left.
Natsume Chikage's expression was somewhat strange.
But he had gradually become accustomed to the elusive style of these "men in black."
However, seeing so many well-trained men in black being so respectful to Konoe Tong, he couldn't help but feel that this girl's status and energy in the Yutang family were likely far higher than he had imagined before.
Perhaps, she was not just a "simple" maid.
But thinking about it, it seemed reasonable.
After all, Konoe Tong served a big shot like Yutang Zhiji; the authority and influence in her hands were naturally not something ordinary people could compare to.
Natsume Chikage looked at Konoe Tong, who still had no expression beside him, and said with a hint of helplessness:
"Next time... if you want to take me somewhere else, can you tell me in advance?"
"If I had known earlier that it was to test my drawing level, there might have been no need to make this trip today."
Konoe Tong's mood seemed good at this moment.
She tilted her head slightly.
"I actually think this trip was very necessary."
Natsume Chikage frowned.
"Why do you say that?"
Konoe Tong explained:
"It's like clocking in for work."
"You arrived at your workstation, and everyone saw you didn't arrive late, but if there is no actual record of clocking in, the system won't acknowledge your attendance."
"If you didn't come here to 'clock in' and let a professional witness and confirm your progress, the young lady might not easily acknowledge your 'achievements'."
"Can you understand it if I put it this way?"
She changed the subject.
"And now... you have already completed a 'part' of the agreement with the young lady."
"So, you can officially take the key to that room."
As she spoke.
Konoe Tong took out the key to the ten-ping room from the exquisite small bag she was carrying.
She reached out and handed the key to Natsume Chikage.
On the street, a breeze blew gently.
The wind lifted the slightly curly hair on Natsume Chikage's forehead, revealing his delicate and handsome face, which was currently wearing a serious expression.
He didn't reach out to take the key immediately.
"Even with such a reason..."
"I still hope you can tell me in advance."
"I don't like this feeling of always being kept in the dark."
The wind also blew Konoe Tong's black, smooth long hair, the strands lifting lightly, and also slightly lifting the hem of her elegant clothes and skirt.
She was silent for a moment, that silence appearing somewhat long.
Afterward, she didn't say much, directly reaching out and grasping Natsume Chikage's wrist.
Then, she placed the key gently into his open palm.
