But when An Zeliang effortlessly took everyone down...

The scene before my eyes gradually began to look somewhat magical.

What ordinary high school student could take down five or six elite bodyguards without batting an eye or breaking a sweat?

You're a high school student... isn't your combat power a bit too ridiculously high?

Ayase Mitsuha stared at Yasuzawa Ryo in astonishment, speechless for a long time.

"call……"

Not far away, An Zeliang breathed a sigh of relief after finishing dealing with his bodyguards. He hadn't exercised like this in a long time, and he even broke a sweat.

The bodyguards didn't try to kill him and held back their strength, so An Zeliang didn't use any underhanded tricks, like poking his eyes, leaving each other some dignity.

However... the outcome was still a foregone conclusion.

He possesses advanced street fighting skills, as well as strong physical attributes.

They are all around 160... You should know that the highest value for a normal adult is only 100.

The attribute difference is so huge... He was killed in one move, nothing more to say.

At this moment, An Zeliang also glanced at the people inside the car.

If it were someone from the second-in-command's side, these people wouldn't have held back and would have gone straight for the kill... So who sent people to ambush them here?

"Xiao Liang!"

Hayano Hoshiko's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Anze Ryo's actions of going over to check.

At the street intersection, Hayano Hoshiko drove slowly towards them, sticking her little head out of the car window to look at An Zeliang, waving her fair little hand and unconsciously revealing a smile on her face.

"I was on the phone with you just now when my phone suddenly died. I charged it for a while but it still wouldn't turn on, so I came over to check on you and saw you standing here."

Hayano Hoshiko parked the car next to Yasuzawa Ryo, opened the car door and jumped out.

Looking at the burly men in black suits lying haphazardly at An Zeliang's feet, she blinked slowly, her tone becoming somewhat puzzled.

"What's wrong with them? Why are they all lying on the ground... drooling, sleeping so soundly in the middle of the street?"

"They were so tired from standing that they fell asleep." An Zeliang breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Hayano Hoshiko was safe and sound. He joked as he looked at the van.

Click.

At that moment, the car door opened, and Ayase Mitsuha stepped out, bowing to the two of them.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Anze.” This time, Ayase Mitsuha’s tone was more apologetic. “We were just following Miss’s orders and didn’t really mean to hurt you or Ms. Hayano.”

As soon as Ayase Mitsuha appeared, Yasuzawa Ryo realized that everything just now was just a misunderstanding caused by the aftermath of the chaotic scene.

Those bodyguards in black suits were probably specially sent by Hoshimiya Rin.

As expected of a wealthy young woman, even after she returned home, she still had maids and bodyguards waiting for her. Her efficiency is truly impressive.

"Oh it's all right."

An Zeliang frowned slightly, his gaze unconsciously glancing at the small villa next to the apartment.

"Don't bring people to block the intersection next time. It's not just me; other people around here might misunderstand, and if any conflict arises, things will become very complicated."

“I understand, Mr. Anze. I will be more careful next time.” Ayase Mitsuha still treated Anze Ryo with great respect.

"Please understand, both of you."

Ayase Mitsuha bent over and continued to explain.

"I was just following orders and hoping that Ms. Hayano would keep her promise and go home to rest, instead of Mr. Anzawa's home."

Upon hearing this, Hayano Hoshiko looked away somewhat embarrassed, her tone tinged with awkwardness.

"Well... it's not that I don't want to go home! I just suddenly remembered that I forgot something at Xiaoliang's house, so I came back to get it. I didn't mean to break my promise..."

Seemingly remembering something, Hayano Hoshiko pursed her lips and muttered something under her breath.

"Besides... the agreement was that we would each go home, and there was no agreement that I couldn't come back or anything..."

"... "

Ayase Mitsuha simply nodded slightly, without reacting much to Hayano Hoshiko's words. Instead, she maintained her bowed apologetic posture while looking at Yasuzawa Ryo, as if waiting for him to make a decision.

“Okay.” Anze Liang ignored Ayase Mitsuha who was waiting to the side and took Hayano Hoshiko’s hand. “Hoshiko, let’s go home.”

"Hehe... okay." Hayano Hoshiko blinked as she watched the two of them naturally clasp hands together, her smile becoming somewhat silly. She nodded and followed behind An Zeliang, forgetting even the car parked behind her, her mind filled with nothing but wanting to go home with An Zeliang.

Seeing this, Ayase Mitsuha pursed her lips and stepped forward to block the two of them.

She remained bent over, her tone apologetic as she insisted on speaking.

“I’m sorry, Miss Hayano told me… You can’t go to the apartment.”

Chapter 179, Section 176: The Dutiful Maid, Aoi's Assistance

Ayase Mitsuha's attitude was very respectful, but her actions were somewhat forceful, standing motionless in front of Yasuzawa Ryo and Hayano Hoshiko.

"Ms. Hayano, please go back."

"why?"

"Because you promised Miss."

Hayano Hoshiko blinked, about to retort, when Anzawa Ryo interrupted the maid.

"Since it was Hoshimiya Rin who gave the order, let her come here in person."

"You have no right to stop a stranger who has nothing to do with you from doing whatever they want."

An Zeliang's tone was unfriendly, and after saying that, he turned to leave.

"Let's go, Xingzi."

"Mmm!" Hayano Hoshiko nodded obediently, stood behind An Zeliang, and like a little fox borrowing the tiger's power, straightened her back and swaggered after An Zeliang.

As she passed by Ayase Mitsuha, Hayano Hoshiko flashed a bright smile.

"Miss Ayase, I'll head home now!"

Her tone carried a hint of triumphant smugness, as if the person standing there wasn't Ayase Mitsuha, but Hoshimiya Rin.

Just then, Ayase Mitsuha suddenly turned around slowly and spoke.

"Ms. Hayano, I'm very sorry, but please bear with me for now!"

Miss Hoshimiya instructed that if necessary, Hayano Hoshiko could be tied up!

Before she could finish speaking, Ayase Mitsuha suddenly reached out and grabbed Hayano Hoshiko's wrist, intending to forcefully pull her down and stop her by force.

Snapped!

Just then, Anze Liang grabbed Hayano Hoshiko's hand and pulled her behind him, the two of them cleverly and quickly switching places.

The person facing Ayase Mitsuha suddenly became Yasuzawa Ryo.

...Such a quick reaction.

Ayase Mitsuha immediately changed the direction of her outstretched hand and took a step. Her reaction speed was also very fast. She intended to bypass Yasuzawa Ryo and continue to block Hayano Hoshiko.

As the head maid of Hoshimiya Rin, Ayase Mitsuha has obviously also undergone combat training.

However... An Zeliang's physique and strength are far superior to those of ordinary people.

Ayase Mitsuha had just taken a step and hadn't even reacted when Yasuzawa Ryo grabbed her wrist and twisted it forcefully.

"……Well!"

Ayase Mitsuha frowned, wincing in pain as Yasuzawa Ryo pinned her arm behind her back.

Ayase Mitsuha suddenly attacked, and Yasuzawa Ryo reacted instinctively to counterattack. His strength was not deliberately suppressed, so it was naturally a bit too much.

Given his relationship with Hayano Hoshiko, he would naturally step in instinctively if something happened.

Just like when he faced the bodyguard, if someone who seemed to be the second-in-command appeared, An Zeliang would most likely choose to notify his wife or call the police directly, which would be the best option.

But concern can cloud judgment, and he didn't have time to wait for the police.

Now that Ayase Mitsuha had intervened first, Yasuzawa Ryo, despite having used a bit too much force, didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"Miss Ayase, don't get too excited. Your behavior could easily be misunderstood as an attack."

An Zeliang said something indifferently, and then let go of her hand.

"..." Ayase Mitsuha moved her aching wrists, her hands...

The arm movement was somewhat unnatural; it must have been twisted.

However, she didn't say anything. She still clasped her hands in front of her, bowed to An Zeliang, and insisted on speaking apologetically.

“I’m very sorry, Mr. Anze… it was Miss’s order…”

"Oh dear!" Hayano Hoshiko interrupted Ayase Mitsuha, peeking out her fair face from behind Yasuzawa Ryo, resting her chin comfortably on Yasuzawa Ryo's shoulder, blinking her eyes, and said in a coaxing tone.

"Anyway, those bodyguards have already passed out, so Miss Ayase can just pretend she didn't see anything and doesn't know I'm back. Hoshimiya-kun definitely won't notice!"

“…I’m sorry, that’s not allowed.” Ayase Mitsuha slowly shook her head. “It’s Miss’s order not to let Ms. Hayano into the apartment.”

Upon hearing this, Hayano Hoshiko's eyes widened, her mouth moved, but she didn't know what to say.

The maid in front of me seems a bit too rigid, carrying out Hoshimiya Rin's orders as if they were her life's creed!

"Ms. Hayano, you..."

Ayase Mitsuha intended to continue obstructing them.

Just then, a figure walked over from not far away, with curiosity on his face.

"Ms. Hayano, Yasuzawa... what are you doing?"

Her gaze slowly swept over Ayase Mitsuha and the black-suited bodyguards lying on the ground, and the doubt in her eyes deepened.

"Miss Ayase, what are you doing here? And who are these people...?"

Nakano Aoi has been a member of the club for a long time, and naturally she has known Hoshimiya Rin for a long time as well. She has met Ayase Mitsuha several times and knows her.

"Ms. Nakano."

Ayase Mitsuha nodded slightly, and after greeting them, she continued to explain without blinking.
