Chapter 65 Hands on Shoulders

  Looking at the unfamiliar number, Xiaowei hesitated for a moment before answering: "Hello, who is this?"

  "Hello, I am the butler of Ukiharagawa Shouya, Basu. Are you Suzumiya Kotomi?" The other party said calmly, which made Kotomi a bit surprised, how did Basu get her number.

  "What's up? You called me, what's going on?" She didn't bother with small talk, she was more curious about why he had called her.

  "It's like this, our young master...". Bas's words came to an end as he quietly waited for Xiaowei's response.

  Xiao Wei was taken aback and asked in doubt: "Me?"

  Hang up the phone, put down the mobile phone, Xiao Wei tilted her head, still feeling a bit unbelievable. She didn't usually have much contact with Yu Qiuyuan, and wasn't familiar with him at all. It seemed like they hadn't spoken in two months since becoming classmates.

  "Let's go to school tomorrow and ask again."

  In the green-dominated room, the petite Haruaki Utakata sat quietly on the bed reading a book. Knock knock knock, the door was knocked open and Basu entered with a warm smile, saying: "Young master, let's go downstairs for dinner."

  "Bring the tray in, I'll eat in my room." Akio stared at his book, hardly moving except for his fingers turning the pages and his eyes shifting back and forth.

  "Master, you always come back and sit on the bed. This lack of exercise will stunt your growth." Bass said seriously, his low voice without any evasive meaning, as if he wasn't afraid to offend his master at all.

  "It doesn't matter, I don't mind about height." Akio Utsuki looked very calm and didn't seem to have any intention of moving.

  "Young master, you always do this way, if the old master and madam know about it, they will be heartbroken." Bas continued to persuade with a bitter tone, even though he repeated these words every day, he didn't feel tired of them.

  Akane didn't respond to his words, her gaze fixed on the tree without leaving it, looking very fascinated. Basu let out a soft sigh and slowly exited the room without saying anything else.

  Soft sunlight spreads over the ground, with only a hint of warmth, but before long it is covered by oppressive grey clouds. The entire sky is gloomy and depressing, with cold winds blowing from time to time, making people involuntarily shrink their necks.

  She put on a thicker pair of leggings, and instantly felt her legs warm up. Winter was approaching soon, and if she wore just a skirt with bare legs, she would freeze to death. She really couldn't understand how some girls could withstand the cold so well.

  As soon as she arrived at school and got off the bus, Xiaowei felt a chill wind blowing over her, so she tightened her body, quickened her pace with small steps, but still couldn't exceed Young Master's pace. When she arrived in the classroom, it was warmer, and she did what she normally did, just as she was about to sit down, her shoulder was caught.

  Huh? Turning her head, she saw Yin Teng Ye beckoning to her with his finger.

  Uh, is this gesture asking her to go with him for a bit? But in front of the young master, it's not quite right.

  Subconsciously taking a glance at Xiū Wèi Chén, his gaze was indeed fixed on Yǐn Téng Yè's wiggling finger.

  "May I borrow your maid for a bit, Master Xiu?" Yin Tongye asked with a smile, his eyes devoid of malice or provocation, simply a request to borrow someone.

  Xiu Xuan withdrew his gaze indifferently, propped up his head with one hand and began to read a book, showing an indifferent attitude towards the scene he had just seen.

  Xiao Wei's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, she looked at the young master who didn't care at all, and her heart was slightly hurt, but before she could speak, she was pulled out of the classroom by Yin Teng Ye.

  "Master Yin, what's going on that you pulled me out here?" Just as she asked, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. She didn't notice and bumped into his back, her nose throbbing with pain.

  "Ow, my nose, Young Master Yin..." She poked her head out in frustration, wanting to complain, but found that there was an extra person in front of her. When she took a closer look, it turned out to be Basu.

  "Mr. Basu? Good morning." She bowed politely and greeted him, suddenly remembering the phone call she received yesterday, almost forgetting about it.

  "Good morning." Bas nodded steadily, adjusted his glasses, and raised a smile. "I wonder if you two have accepted the invitation I sent out yesterday? I do hope you can attend our young master's birthday party."

  "Us?" Little Wei looked up at Yin Tengye, puzzled: "Just me and Master Yin?" She didn't understand, there were other classmates in the class, why only call her and Yin Tengye.

  "Yes, the young master doesn't like it too lively, fewer people are better, so I only invited two of you, I wonder if that's alright with you both." Bas took off his glasses, and his eyes, which were full of spirit and had a hint of eeriness, showed sincere gaze as he looked at the two of them.

  Yin Teng Ye glanced at her, who was slightly hesitant beside him, and put his arm on her shoulder without hesitation, saying: "Let's go, both of us will go. Since you've invited us so sincerely, how can we not agree?"

  "Huh?" Xiao Wei was taken aback, her eyes widening in surprise as she looked at the hand on her shoulder. Before she could respond, Yin Teng Ye beside her smiled and said, "Is that so."

  Looking at the cunning eyes of the upper one, Xiaowei seemed to see information in his eyes. She nodded dazedly and smiled: "Yes, we will go."

  "I'll thank you both on behalf of Young Master. I'll send a car to pick you up at that time. By the way, don't need to dress too formally, it's just an ordinary birthday party." Bass's face revealed a joyful smile, which added a touch of warmth compared to his previous cold and silent demeanor.

  "Alright, got it. You don't have to pick us up that day either, just give me the address and I'll take her there." Yin Tongye poked Xiao Wei's forehead with his finger, his raised eyebrows making him look mischievous and adorable.

  "Alright, I'll do as Master Yin said. Basu will eagerly await your arrival. Then, I'll take my leave."

  "Ok......" Yin Teng Ye waved her slender and clean fingers, watching as Bas entered the classroom, then lowered her eyes to fix her gaze on Xiao Wei's face.

  "You reacted a bit slowly just now."

  "I'll be more careful next time." Little Wei awkwardly forced a smile, bent her knees, lowered her shoulders, turned her body, and slipped out of his arm, then used a laugh to cover up her previous action.

  Yin Tengye's arm hung in mid-air, he glanced sideways at the pig in front of him who was laughing awkwardly, rolled his eyes and swung his hand: "Go back to class, look at you."

  "Yes!" Little Wei flashed a silly smile and quickly turned around to take big strides away, but was called back.

  "Hey, I said it's okay to dress casually, but not too casual. And remember what you said earlier? I just told them we're going, so respond quickly, that's all."

  He strolled by with a leisurely pace, brushing past her and nudging her head slightly, his lips curling up into a smile as he turned his back to her.
