The glass shards shattered all throughout the ground, like an enormous summary artwork whereas making it inconceivable for an individual to maneuver contained in the room with out getting harm.

It took a second for Ming Yue to regain her bearings from the shock of the sudden accident. She took a deep breath to calm her pounding coronary heart. 

Since she stood going through in the other way of the window, a number of of the glass pellets hit her again, however nonetheless, she did not even transfer just a little bit.

Simply as she seemed on the damaged window with narrowed eyes, hurried footsteps had been heard from outdoors, adopted by Wan Yi Jun’s fearful voice on the door.

“Ming Yue, what occurred? Are you alright?” He knocked on the closed door and inquired. He simply got here all the way down to take some water from the kitchen, and unexpectedly, he heard a loud crash from Ming Yue’s room.

“Give me a second, grasp.” Ming Yue replied whereas tiptoeing in direction of the door with out stepping on the glass items.

She one way or the other managed to succeed in the doorway and pulled open the door to see a distressed Wan Yi Jun on the doorstep.

“What occurred?” He requested as soon as once more and scanned Ming Yue, prime to backside,

“The window broke.” Ming Yue casually answered and broadly opened the door to disclose the room’s state. “I imply the glass broke,” She corrected herself and moved to a aspect in order that Wan Yi Jun might enter the room,

Nevertheless, as a substitute of stepping inside, he simply stood there and seemed for any accidents on Ming Yue.

“Did you get harm?”

“No, grasp.” Although she felt a stinging ache from her again, Ming Yue pretended that she was alright.

“What occurred right here?” Wan Yi Jun inquired as he seemed on the shattered glass on the ground. 

“I used to be standing right here and unexpectedly, the window glass broke down.”

“Hmm.” Wan Yi Jun attentively nodded and thoroughly walked in direction of the open window,

“Grasp, do not go over there.” Ming Yue warned when she noticed Wan Yi Jun strolling over the sharp glass pellets on the ground whereas carrying a pair of home slippers.

Listening to her voice, Wan Yi Jun stopped in his tracks and seemed on the window.

Beneath the darkish sky, he might see the faint define of Wisteria backyard’s conventional annexe home. 

The haunting sight of the outdated mansion the place Wan clan lived for a whole bunch of years, together with the howling sound of chilly wind and the murmuring of the timber, despatched a chill down Wan Yi Jun’s backbone.

Although he have not seen something supernatural within the compound, he had heard from others that that they had seen some figures wandering within the conventional home, scaring everybody else.

For some purpose, Wan Yi Jun felt that somebody was watching him from the darkness.

Regardless of how a lot he tried, he could not discover any traces of any intrusion or exterior power.

“Did they alter the window pane?” He requested whereas specializing in the glass pellets on the ground. Although a number of timber grew beside the constructing, he could not assist, however overlook that the home windows bought damaged by the tree branches.

The depth of the crash was so excessive that the complete window glass broke.

“Sure. Possibly the employees have forgotten to lock the home windows.” Ming Yue got here up with an excuse and bent down to wash up the mess on the ground.

“However I requested them to make use of the impact-resistant tempered glass. There is no such thing as a probability it would break this simple, simply by the window.” Wan Yi Jun, who seemed on the mess within the room together with his police mind, could not purpose it, regardless of how a lot he tried to miss it as a pure accident.

“Ahhh…” A slight wail pulled Wan Yi Jun out of his ideas, and he rapidly turned again to see Ming Yue crouching down on the ground.

He could not imagine that she was choosing the sharp glass items with a naked hand as if it was nothing.

He set free a heavy sigh and thoroughly strode in direction of her. 

“You’ve already injured your arm. Why trouble with the cleansing? Go away it there,” He chided the woman who acted so carelessly in such a state of affairs. She was already having hassle doing issues with one among her arms injured, and but, she did not assume twice earlier than cleansing up the mess.

“What if somebody steps in it?” Ming Yue replied whereas urgent on her harm finger. Fortunately, it was only a minor reduce.

“Who’s there to step in it aside from us?” Wan Yi Jun argued again in the identical tone, 

“However, nonetheless, we have to filter out the glass pellets.” Ming Yue replied as he lowered her eyes and started to choose up the big glass items from the ground.

Nevertheless, even earlier than she might say one thing, Wan Yi Jun’s robust hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her up from the crouching posture.

Ming Yue, who by no means anticipated such an motion, nearly misplaced her steadiness and fell onto his muscular chest in a glimpse.

The second Ming Yue sensed the heat that unfold over to her physique from Wan Yi Jun, she rapidly took a step again, solely to hit upon her step,

Nevertheless, Wan Yi Jun, who had fast reflexes, caught Ming Yue earlier than her foot bought lacerated by the identical glass items she had collected. 

“Why it’s so laborious so that you can perceive my phrases?” Wan Yi Jun sounded

“You possibly can clear it when your wounds heal. As for now, let’s lock this room and get a employee to alter the window glasses.”

“I’ll take the room subsequent door.”

“Take the visitor room on the primary ground.”

“W

“However Nechan, what in the event you get caught? He’s somebody who bought the license to kill anybody pose menace to their nation.” Kousuke tried to remind Ming Yue, who refused to listen to their pleadings to remain secure.

“He’s a law-abiding officer, in contrast to others. I am rattling certain that Captain Wan Yi Jun won’t ever kill me with no court docket trial, a minimum of over the pity for his childhood pal.” Ming Yue bitterly added as if she wasn’t afraid of something.

“Are you loopy, Nechan?” Kousuke nearly jumped up from the mattress and roared in anger, “Do you could have any thought what the hell did you simply stated? Take it again…Take it again.”

“Yaa…do not be infantile.” Ming Yue ruffled Kousuke’s hair and dismissed it as a joke.

“No. You need to take it again…How are you going to even say that “M” phrase?” Kousuke threw tantrums like a 5 years outdated baby and even dragged Yojiro into their debate.

“I’ve just one request.” Yojiro who had no intention to meddle within the debate turned in direction of Ming Yue and stated in a flat tone. “Possibly some circumstances, too.”

“Hmm.”

“Every single day, take out a while and speak to Tora. In any other case, he would name us and simply work out that you’ve already left this place.” Yojiro acknowledged as a matter of reality. Since Ming Yue was not keen on cellphone conversations and bought busy together with her new “maid” job, Tora used to name both Kousuke or Yojiro to guarantee that his fiance was doing nicely. 

“Yaa…are you permitting Nechan to depart?” Kousuke, who bought shocked by witnessing the sudden change in Yojiro’s perspective, shifted his goal from Ming Yue to the opposite. 

“Nechan has already made her thoughts, and now, it’s inconceivable to cease her.” Yojiro shrugged his shoulders in helplessness. He was nicely conscious of the truth that in terms of the security of her household, Ming Yue shall be able to do something, regardless of how troublesome and harmful it is likely to be.

“Thanks, Yoji.” Ming Yue patted Yojiro’s shoulder as a gratitude gesture.

“Nope, what I would like is a phrase in return…A blood vow to be actual,” Yojiro negotiated as chilly as an iceberg.

“What?”

“I shall be monitoring your each motion, and it’s best to promise me that you just will not take it down…by no means…ever. If you’re prepared to do it, I’ll keep loyal to you. In any other case, I’ll inform Tora and Massive brother that you’re playing around in imperial.” 

“Playing around?” 

Although Ming Yue was fairly shocked that even Yojiro had began to blackmail her, she determined to agree for the sake of her brother’s peace.

“I agree.” 

“You possibly can’t simply agree…Each morning and night time, it’s best to name us and guarantee us that you’re secure over there.” 

“I’ll name you each morning and night time. Now what?” She requested and glanced across the room to search for some sharp object. 

She set free a sigh and walked beside the self-importance desk within the room to choose up a paper cutter.

“You requested for the blood vow, proper? I am undecided this factor works.” Ming Yue opened her palm and grabbed the sharp finish of the paper cutter.

“I, Hayami Terada of Kobayashi Clan, swear that I’ll by no means do something to place myself otherwise you two at risk and conform to no matter situation that my brother, Yojiro, had put ahead to guarantee my security.” She acknowledged in a crystal clear voice and reduce her palm earlier than extending it in direction of Yojiro, who stood there like a statue.

“Tremendous now?” She requested with none change in her manner,

“Hmm. So, When are you leaving?”

“He stated that he’ll decide me up from the central sq..”
