Chapter 289: Love Confirmation

Saeba Ai's confident words left Kaguya Sigong silent.

Because she knew Saeba was absolutely right.

It wasn't just her whose fate was intertwined with Ren Amamiya's; others were involved too.

Not just one or two, and in fact, the number would continue to increase.

Although Ren Amamiya hadn't said it would definitely reach that point, Kaguya Sigong felt it was highly probable.

Because the connections between the diaries would often grow deeper; right now everyone was on the path of long life, which destined their futures to be extraordinary.

In that case, their connection with Ren Amamiya would only strengthen, with no possibility of ever diminishing.

Kaguya Sigong remained silent for a long time, then voiced a very willful, even deliberate possibility.

"What if I withdraw right now?"

"Then can you imagine Young Lady Fujiwara standing intimately beside Ren Amamiya?"

Kaguya Sigong, who had just proposed that scenario, suddenly felt her anger inexplicably surge.

Her mind involuntarily conjured an image of that pig with its nutrition grown on its chest hugging Ren Amamiya's arm.

... I can't stand it!

Just casually imagining it, Kaguya Sigong felt her blood pressure skyrocket.

She could not bear such a scene under any circumstances.

"Furthermore, based on my deduction, Young Lady Suzuki actually has a trend of trying to recruit Young Lady Mao Li."

"!?"

Saeba's sudden words dealt Kaguya Sigong a heavy blow.

"When?!"

"During this very trip to Moon Shadow Island."

Kaguya Sigong's eyes widened; she thought hard and then realized it.

She ground her teeth.

"It's the form of address!"

She remembered that Suzuki Sonoko called Ren Amamiya "Ren-Ren," and Mao Li Lan did the same.

Saeba Ai nodded slightly.

"Based on what we know, Young Lady Mao Li's original childhood sweetheart, after deceiving and concealing things from her time and again, has still triggered Young Lady Mao Li's disappointment."

"Personally, I think Young Lady Mao Li has been quite patient."

"Every time they went out together, they were interrupted by one case after another."

"There were countless opportunities to confess, yet in the end, those words were never spoken."

"Young Lady Mao Li's disappointment was inevitable."

"Moreover, the final deception carried selfish motives to move into Young Lady Mao Li's home; such a situation would only make Young Lady Mao Li even more disappointed."

Kaguya Sigong agreed strongly as well.

Having seen the investigation reports, she also felt Mao Li Lan's personality was indeed very good, almost another copy of Fujiwara Chika.

But even the best personality cannot endure repeated disappointments and repeated waiting.

And from Kaguya Sigong's perspective, if only some of Kudo Shinichi's words were spoken, then his relationship with Mao Li Lan would be stable.

Yet Kaguya Sigong didn't know why Kudo Shinichi couldn't say the words of confession for so many years.

What was so difficult about that?

Kaguya Sigong couldn't understand it at all.

"At this point in time, Young Lady Mao Li's disappointment in her original childhood sweetheart has reached its peak."

"And that Kudo Shinichi has also ruined his own status."

"Right now, if a boy with decent conditions appeared by Young Lady Mao Li's side, would that boy attract Young Lady Mao Li's attention?"

Absolutely!

Kaguya Sigong had already given an affirmative answer in her heart.

After all, it was just a childhood sweetheart relationship; did one need to care so much about someone who had already ruined their own identity?

Never confessing was Kudo Shinichi's own choice.

Being knocked unconscious, being fed medicine, choosing to abandon his identity as Kudo Shinichi to restore his Gao Zhongsheng status and to root out that organization—this too was Kudo Shinichi's own choice.
