"Akane-chan, what are you doing in here? Get out right now."

"Come in and hide."

After hearing Hinata Gen's voice, Nanao Akane explained and then walked to the side, put on her headphones, and started playing on her phone.

Katase Miu's expression changed upon seeing this, and she muttered to herself:

"How could this be? Why? Why is Akane-chan completely unconcerned? Didn't I sacrifice myself for nothing today?"

"I'm back!"

Just then, Katase Shoya's voice suddenly rang out from the entrance hall.

"Why are you back so soon, Shoya? Isn't the baseball team supposed to have an event?"

Katase Shoya's return home caught Katase Miu off guard.

"Sho, whatever you do, don't come in."

Knowing that Katase Sho also had the habit of going to her room to chat after school, Katase Miu felt very nervous.

When Katase Shoya returned to the living room dejectedly, he saw Akiyama Rinko sitting on the sofa, wiping her katana. He was first stunned by her beauty, and then asked with some confusion:

"Huh? Who are you?"

Without even looking up, Akiyama Rinko said indifferently:

"I'm Akane's friend. Your mother invited us to your house, so we came. You must be Katase Shoya. I know you; Akane told me about you."

Upon hearing the name Nanao Akane, Katase Sho's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up, excitedly saying:

"Really? Akane-chan actually came! Where is she? I have so much to say to her."

Rinko Akiyama pointed to Miu Katase's room and casually said:

"They're chatting in the room, I don't know what they're talking about, maybe it's something important. Go ask them."

"Are you talking about me? Akane-chan, you have to let me explain this time."

Realizing that this was the only possibility, Katase Shoya ignored Akiyama Rinko sitting on the sofa and headed straight for his mother's bedroom.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer outside the door, Katase Miu knew it was Katase Shoya coming and could only pray that the door was locked.

"Click, click, click!"

Seeing that the door hadn't been opened, Katase Miu immediately relaxed.

"It's good that it wasn't opened."

After trying to open the door a few times without success, Katase Sho was also puzzled. Wasn't his parents' bedroom usually unlocked? Why was it suddenly locked today?

However, after realizing that Akane Nanao was also inside, Katase Shoya guessed that they might really be talking about something private, so he went up and knocked on the door again.

"Kasan, is Akane-chan here?"

There was no response from inside, so Katase Sho frowned and then knocked a few more times.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Kassan?"

"Is that Shoya...? I was talking to Akane-chan, is there something you need?"

Hearing something off about Katase Miu's voice inside, Katase Shoya, who had never experienced anything like this before, didn't think about it in that direction.

Thinking that Katase Miu was sick, he asked with some concern:

"Kasan, are you sick? Your voice sounds a bit off."

After hearing this, Katase Miu quickly explained:

"Yes, my throat is a little sore, and I might have a slight fever. I'll be fine after resting for a while."

"Is Akane-chan here?"

Katase Miu did not respond after hearing this, and then Nanao Akane's voice rang out.

"Whether I come or not is none of your business. I came to your house just to talk to Aunt Miu. I will never forget what you did back then."

Hearing that Nanao Akane still harbored resentment towards him for abandoning her and running away alone, Katase Sho rubbed his hair in pain.

"Akane-chan, let me explain. I didn't mean to do it back then. I just don't know why my mind went blank when I saw Coach Higashi. I've forgotten what I did after that."

Akane Nanao took off her headphones and walked to the door. After hearing what Shoya Katase said, she said with disdain:

"Hmph, you don't even have the courage to take responsibility? I really misjudged you before. After today, you don't need to call me anymore. I've changed my number. You'd better watch yourself."

"You have no idea what I went through back then. If Hinata-kun hadn't suddenly appeared and saved me, my life would have been ruined, you know? It's all because of you that I had to face this situation, and you just abandoned me. It's so hurtful."

"Akane-chan, I..."

Katase Sho was rendered speechless by Nanao Akane's words. Just when he was in despair, he suddenly remembered that his mother was still with Nanao Akane.

So, as if grasping at a straw, he quickly said:

"Kasan, please explain this to me. I really didn't mean to leave Akane behind and run away."

Katase Miu could no longer hear what Katase Sho was saying outside, and had no time to respond to him.

"Kasan? Say something."

Akane Nanao's face showed disgust. She kicked the door and said with a look of disgust:

"Alright, I've explained the whole story to Aunt Meiyu clearly, and she won't speak up for you."

"How could that be?"

Hearing Akane's merciless voice, and with Katase Miu not responding to him, Katase Sho leaned weakly against the door, unsure how to explain himself to Akane forgiving him.

Seeing that Katase Sho had stopped talking, Nanao Akane felt only disappointment in him. Now, all she could see was Hyuga Gen, who had saved her. She couldn't even imagine life without Hyuga Gen.

Seeing this, Akiyama Rinko in the living room couldn't help but shake her head. What kind of perverse sense of humor does Hyuga-sama have?

Is the succubus bloodline really that influential? Looks like I'll have to give him some advice later.

Katase Sho sat blankly by the door, not even noticing the sounds coming from inside. After a while, seeing that Nanao Akane still wouldn't come out, he dejectedly returned to his room.

After hearing the door open, Nanao Akane went out and returned to the sports car with Akiyama Rinko to wait for Hinata Gen.

Hearing the door close at the entrance, Katase Sho, lying on the bed, didn't go out. He knew that Nanao Akane had completely cut ties with him, and he didn't want to or would try to stop her.

After Hinata Gen left, Katase Miu in the master bedroom looked somewhat dazed. Although this was her initial plan, things had not gone as she had hoped.

Katase Miu felt a pang of regret, then looked at her sales uniform, recalling the events of the afternoon, and muttered to herself:

"However, this feeling is quite nice."
