Various thoughts raced through Kuroba Chikage's mind.
Ultimately, I decided to let nature take its course.
Since we've already taken control of the final outcome, there's no need to fight against fate!
I sat in front of the vanity mirror, finished my makeup, and then picked out a white dress from the wardrobe to put on.
After she was ready, she realized what was happening and couldn't help but let out a soft spit—
It was just a simple meeting, but I put on makeup and changed clothes, making it seem like I was going on a blind date!
Are you so eager to give yourself away?
"Ding--!"
Just when both Kaito Kuroba and Chikage Kuroba were struggling with their own dilemmas.
The doorbell rang from the entryway.
Kaito reluctantly moved to the doorway and opened it.
Sure enough, standing at the door was Xia Ye.
This guy was dressed in a casual suit, with a straight posture and striking good looks; he was the type of guy that would make any girl's heart flutter at first glance.
This made Kaito dislike this guy more and more!
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Xia Ye noticed that Kaito's eyes were looking a little strange, and she began to make her own plans.
Does this kid know I'm planning to date his mom?
After all, she hadn't disguised herself when she last met Kuroba Chikage. If she told her son that she had met him, Kaito would definitely start thinking about something.
"fine!"
Xia Ye hadn't done anything after all.
Kaito couldn't question him right now.
"come in!"
"By the way, Kaito, what brings you here today?"
Xia Ye didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight into the living room, looking around as she said:
Actually, I have something to do this afternoon—
Xia Ye stopped talking, looked at the stunningly beautiful woman walking down the stairs from the second floor, her eyes lit up, and she pulled Kaito aside to ask:
"Who is this beautiful young lady? Your sister?"
"I've never heard of you having an older sister?"
"This is my mom!"
Kaito disgustedly pulled his hand away from Natsume's and snorted coldly:
"She's the one who asked me to invite you here today!"
"Or do you think I have nothing better to do?"
"Hey? Aren't you free?"
Xia Ye looked at him with a half-smile and said:
"Haven't you been staying at home the whole time lately and haven't gone anywhere?"
"hateful!"
Kaito gritted his teeth and said angrily:
"Hongzi has already lifted the curse for me, and I'm planning to go out and get some exercise in the next few days!"
That's great!
Natsume smiled and patted Kaito on the shoulder:
"As long as it doesn't go too far."
"I'll just pretend I didn't see it!"
"Humph!"
Kaito didn't want to be lectured by Natsume, but he didn't argue back.
After all, the act of blowing up the Osaka substation last time was indeed too much.
Looking back on it, he realized that he had been too reckless at the time, and that he must think things through carefully before acting next time!
"Mr. Xia Ye——"
Hei Yu Qianying had already gracefully entered the living room. Hearing her son and Xia Ye's conversation, a charming smile appeared on her pretty face.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you with my son Kaito. Don't worry, I will definitely discipline him properly and that kind of thing will never happen again!"
"Easy to say, easy to say~"
Xia Ye looked at Hei Yu Qianying, who had regained her true appearance.
She is indeed a stunningly beautiful and charming woman.
Her pretty face and delicate features need no further explanation.
Her beautiful, grey-blue eyes shone like jade.
The light purple lipstick on her lips had a subtle allure.
Wearing a simple white dress, she looked like a young girl despite being a wife and mother.
Say something.
In some ways, she really does resemble Yukiko a little bit!
but--
Xia Ye frowned, a perfectly timed look of confusion on her face. She circled around Hei Yu Qianying, stroking her chin as she said:
"I have a feeling I've seen Lady Kuroba somewhere before—or is it just my imagination?"
"..."
Kuroba Chikage secretly rolled his eyes. He didn't believe that Xia Ye, who had seen him, couldn't guess that the girl from that day, Keiko, was Kuroba Chikage. Right now, 313 was definitely pretending to be stupid and teasing him!
Even so, I still have to play along with him. How infuriating!
"Tokyo National Museum..."
"museum?"
Xia Ye pretended to ponder for a moment, then "suddenly realized"!
"You're Miss Keiko!?"
"Right!"
"Having a son like Kaito—"
"Lady Black Feather, it's perfectly normal that you're skilled in disguise!"
This villain really loves to act, Kuroba Chikage thought helplessly, but she still had to maintain a smile on her pretty face.
"That's right, I concealed my identity that day, I'm really sorry!"
"After I came back, I mentioned Mr. Natsume to Kaito and found out that you and he are friends!"
"They really are friends—"
Natsume reached out and wrapped her arms around Kaito's neck:
"You agree, right, Kaito?"
"Haha~"
He could indeed be considered a friend, but Xia Ye was always tricking him, so it was definitely a fake friendship!
"So we're all family now!"
Xia Ye stepped forward, grasped Hei Yu Qianying's soft, boneless hand, and smiled radiantly:
"Lady Kuroba, just call me Xia Ye. Please take care of me in the future!"
Hearing Xia Ye call her Mrs. Kuroba, Kuroba Chikage knew that this guy still had that perverse sense of humor, and his fetish for married women was deeply ingrained!
"Xia Ye, you can just call me Qianying!"
Kuroba Chikage was unwilling to let Natsume call her aunt.
Although she wasn't as fixated on terms of address as Yukiko, who even made her own son call her "sister," making Natsume call her "auntie" would make her sound old!
So, let's just let him call us by our names.
"Cough cough!"
Kaito, who had been observing the situation with a cold eye, noticed that the atmosphere was becoming somewhat dangerous, and that Natsume was still holding onto his mother's hand tightly.
Moreover, these two were already addressing each other by their first names, and he didn't dare to think about what would happen in the future, so he quickly interrupted their conversation:
"Mom, didn't you ask Xia Ye for a favor?"
"Hurry up and tell him—"
"He has things to do this afternoon!"
"is it?"
Kuroba Chikage looked at Natsume, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of apology:
"I'm sorry for taking up your time, Xia Ye!"
"It's ok!"
Xia Ye smiled and waved her hand:
"There's still some time before what I'm going to say, there's still plenty of time, Qianying, you don't need to worry about it!"
"Okay, then I'll make it short—"
The two sat down on the sofa in the living room. Kaito, feeling the intense gaze of Chikage Kuroba, reluctantly went to pour coffee.
After her son left, Hei Yuqian glanced at Xia Ye, who insisted on sitting next to her on the wide sofa instead of sitting there, then pretended not to see her and began to explain to Xia Ye:
"Actually, it's because of the Sengoku period artifacts exhibition at the Tokyo National Museum tomorrow. Last time I went there, I was asked to investigate the situation."
"Entrusted by someone?"
Xia Ye had already guessed that Hei Yu Qianying's visit to the museum wasn't to see the artifacts but to scout the place. However, she hadn't expected that Hei Yu Qianying wasn't there to steal anything herself, but rather to investigate for someone else—
"who is it?"
"Fujiko Mine!"
"Who?"
"Fujiko Mine!"
"...".
Chapter 453 Kuroba Kaito: Natsume, what do you want to do to my mom!
Hearing the name Mine Fujiko from Kuroba Chikage's mouth was actually a bit of a surprise to Natsume.
But then I thought about it again, and Kuroba Chikage used to work in Europe and America, so it's not surprising that she knew Fujiko Mine.
However, Xia Ye still had some doubts:
"Why would she take a liking to things from the Warring States period?"
Isn't she most interested in gold, silver, jewelry, and money?
“Mine Fujiko is of mixed race. Her ancestors were nobles of the shogunate, and that precious jade belongs to her family.”
Kuroba Chikage took the coffee her son brought her and took a small sip:
"Later, her family declined, and the precious jade was lost. Now that it has reappeared, Mine Fujiko will naturally not let it go—"
