Anime Crossover: My Girlfriend Has a System

Hearing the girl's call, Ye Ziye didn't turn around. He shoved away Sakamoto Taichi, who was trying to get on, released the tall, thin man's hand, grabbed his neck, and shoved him against the car. His face was so dark it looked like it could drip water.

He didn't know why he was so angry; perhaps it was because the man in front of him had insulted the girl beside him.

"What did you say?"

Ye Ziye smelled it coldly, and the tall, thin man let out a choked sob as he struggled to breathe. His gaunt face turned red, and his eyes seemed to bulge out of their sockets.

He probably didn't expect that someone would resort to such ruthlessness over a mere disagreement, as if they had touched a raw nerve with this young man.

He felt a pang of regret, as a chilling coldness seeped into his bones, but he couldn't bring himself to utter the words of pleading.

He's been in the business for over a decade, and with Taichi Sakamoto watching over him, if he were to speak out, how could he possibly survive in Tokyo?

Ye Ziye tightened his grip, then suddenly loosened it, grabbed the man's neck, and slammed him hard against the car window. Slashes of hatred appeared on the window. After a few more blows, the car cracked, and Ye Ziye threw the tall, thin man inside.

He didn't feel tired, he was just angry. He had never been angry about anything before, but now he knew that it was the girls around him who made him angry.

"Take this trash away."

Ye Ziye glanced at the expressionless Sakamoto Taichi, her tone somewhat cold.

The boy's ruthlessness and indifference made Sakamoto Taichi tremble. He wondered if Ye Ziye hadn't been with the girl and if he had done something to her, he would be in an even worse state than the one in the car.

Having just seen Ye Ziye lift an adult man with one hand, he had no doubt that he would receive the same treatment, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Be careful, he's not someone to mess with."

Sakamoto Taichi gave Ye Ziye a deep look. He had no intention of standing up for the tall, thin man, but this trouble had still gotten to him, giving him a headache.

The tall, thin man kicked open the car door and jumped out, his head covered in blood, pointing menacingly at Ye Ziye.

"You just wait, kid. If you don't kill me today, I'll kill you sooner or later!"

Looking at the person in front of him, Ye Ziye remained indifferent and spoke.

"Then wait a moment."

Ye Ziye turned around and glanced at Yukino Yukinoshita. The girl's face had lost its anger; instead, she was staring blankly at him.

He could roughly guess what the girl was thinking, but he couldn't care less about that now. He stood motionless next to the tall, thin man.

...

What do you want to do?

After making those firm remarks, the tall, thin man couldn't bring himself to back down, even though he felt the young man's behavior was really abnormal.

"Didn't you tell me to wait?"

Ye Ziye stared intently at the pedestrians passing by on the street in front of her, seemingly lost in thought.

"How about we leave? If it's really too much, I can make a few phone calls for you?"

Sakamoto Taichi couldn't figure out what Ye Ziye was up to, but he had a feeling it wasn't a good thing for his superiors. Although he wouldn't go to help, he definitely had to show some respect for his superiors now, otherwise the tall, thin guy would definitely blame him.

After observing for a while, Ye Ziye took out a stack of banknotes from his shirt pocket, which amounted to about 15,000 yen.

He usually doesn't carry cash, but he happened to have left his phone behind today, so he brought a lot of money, which came in handy today.

"What are you doing? You think you can settle this with such a small amount of money?"

Ye Ziye glanced at him but didn't say anything. He simply held up the stack of money high, making the people gathered around him envious, as if it might fall at any moment.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Ziye suddenly raised her hand, tossing a wad of cash over the tall, thin man's head, then jumped back and shouted.

"I found some money!"

Chapter 296

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him instantly gathered together. Ye Ziye saw a biker gang member wearing a black leather jacket riding over on a motorcycle.

The people around them acted quickly as well, rushing over one after another upon hearing Ye Ziye's words.

Ye Ziye didn't care how many people picked up his money; in the end, he didn't care about the money at all.

Walking up to Yukino Yukinoshita, Yoko didn't say anything more, but silently began to observe the situation.

"Ye Zi, that person just fell down. They might get hit by that motorcyclist. Hopefully, they won't die..."

Ye Ziye pulled Yukino Yukinoshita's hand and walked away, watching Sakamoto Taichi circling around the crowd, but unable to squeeze in, and could only anxiously wait outside.

Yukino Yukinoshita was still looking back. She was indeed very angry, but she didn't intend to cause anyone's death, especially since Yoru had done such a thing for her.

If anything unexpected were to happen and implicate Ye Ziye, she would feel incredibly guilty.

"He won't die that easily, but he's bound to get injured. Consider it punishment for his loose tongue."

Ye Ziye didn't care at all. He considered himself a kind person, but that only applied to the girls around him. To strangers, he was always the selfish one.

Moreover, he was not a serial killer, and even though he was not held responsible, he never thought of eliminating harm to society.

"Ye Zi, how did you know those people would go and rob us...?"

Yukino Yukinoshita had been observing silently all along, as if everything happening now was under Yoru's control.

"I guessed that. I didn't have much hope of succeeding just now. Of course, even if that biker gang didn't drive, having so much money there would inevitably cause chaos. If I just tripped that person, he would still be trampled on. Money is something that can make people lose their humanity. They can even disregard life."

Ye Ziye remained unconcerned, believing the man deserved his punishment. He thought that if the man had been more careful with his words, he wouldn't have been punished this way.

He wasn't worried at all about being punished by law. He was just throwing money around because he was in a bad mood. Should he be punished for that?

Ultimately, it wasn't him who hurt that person.

Ye Ziye took Yukino Yukinoshita's hand again, but it was no longer cold; instead, it was warm and trembling slightly.

Yukino Yukinoshita has always been a strong and proud girl, something Yoko Yoru knows all too well. He has never known what in this world could possibly frighten this girl.

No matter how difficult the task or how much suffering she had to endure, this girl could persevere without ever being afraid or saying a word.

But this very person was now trembling. Ye Ziye suddenly understood something, took Yukino Yukinoshita's hand, and walked away from this place of trouble.

The walk is over, now it's time to go home.

The young boy and girl walked quietly down the street, neither of them speaking, as if they were completely detached from the hustle and bustle of the world. Behind them, a group of people were frantically grabbing money, as if they were from two different worlds.

It was 2 PM, the hottest time of the day. Ye Ziye wasn't in a hurry to go home. He left some food for Artoria and, holding Yukino Yukinoshita's hand, went to the riverbank.

He didn't know why he was so familiar with holding hands, but a voice inside him told him that it was best not to let go at this moment.

The girl next to him didn't seem to be resistant, so he decided it would be better to persevere a little longer.

Ye Ziye leaned against the railing with one hand, while Yukino Yukinoshita watched him from the side.

Do you remember what we looked like when we first met?

Ye Ziye took a deep breath. It didn't have the unique smell of river water, but rather the moisture of the ocean, though it still brought a touch of coolness.

Yukino Yukinoshita nodded. How could she forget? Even if she did forget, she would force herself to remember.

Back then, in her mind, Ye Ziye was a seduceable, arrogant fool who looked down on everyone, a far cry from her current impression of him...

What was your impression of me back then?

"He's an idiot."

Learning from Yoko's honesty, Yukino Yukinoshita spoke her mind.

Ye Ziye nodded. These words didn't anger him. What he needed to do now was provide psychological counseling, which was something he was doing for the first time.

"Back then, when I saw you, I knew you were an extremely proud person. Although you were annoying, I felt that nothing in the world could frighten you or defeat you."

Such high praise made Yukino Yukinoshita blush slightly. This was probably Ye Ziye's first impression of her, something she had never known before.

“We were very similar, so I thought at the time that we would either become very good friends or become enemies. Fortunately, we became friends.”

Ye Ziye smiled. He didn't know how well he smiled, but he felt that it was better to smile at a time like this.

"I thought about the same thing as you, but back then I felt that we would definitely become friends."

Yukino Yukinoshita said this, but the friend she was referring to was a work partner; Yoko Yoh's appearance could make many requests easier.

"Thank you so much. Thank you for everything you did. You were able to hold my hand in front of the teacher back then, which saved me a lot of trouble."

"Why say all this..."

Yukino Yukinoshita was a little shy. It was indeed a moment of impulse, because the invitation from Yoru was the first request she had ever received, and she didn't want to leave any regrets.

"I've always felt that I should repay you, after all, you sacrificed your modesty as a girl, and I've been doing the same thing ever since, trying my best to help you, but..."

Ye Ziye paused, then swayed Yukino's body slightly so they could stand face to face. Looking into the girl's eyes, he said earnestly, "Nine 11 Nine."

"I'm sorry, I didn't take care of you just now, I scared you."

Chapter 297

This was the first time Ye Ziye had been so serious since summer vacation started. Strangely, every time he was serious, it was for a girl. Last time it was to apologize to Ms. Kato, and this time it was to apologize to Ms. Yukinoshita.

"Why apologize? You did that to protect me."

Yukino Yukinoshita spoke calmly, looking directly into Yoru's eyes, seemingly unconcerned about what had just happened.

However, Ye Ziye and others knew this girl well. Yukino Yukinoshita always spoke seriously, no matter what it was or who she was talking to, she never did it perfunctorily.

The girl believed that was disrespectful, so being serious was her defining characteristic.

"I told you before, I didn't take good care of you... I scared you..."

Ye Ziye tried to keep her tone gentle as she looked at Yukino Yukinoshita in front of her.

He didn't know much about it, but he did know that girls always form a general impression of everyone they meet, and unless something special happens, this impression will probably stay with them forever.

Ye Ziye didn't know what impression he made of Yukino Yukinoshita, but his actions just now must have shattered that impression.

Yukino Yukinoshita may seem cold, but she is actually a kind girl. Even when she is very angry, she would never scheme to hurt someone like that.

Ye Ziye wouldn't do that; he was just too angry.

The gentle voice reached the girl's eyes, and Yukino Yukinoshita felt her eyes sting. This was the first time she had felt this way in so many years.

She understood why Ye Ziye had done everything, and she didn't want to blame the boy; she was just a little scared.

But hearing that apology felt like the gentle, refined, and gentlemanly young man had returned, bringing her a familiar sense of peace.

Yukino took two steps forward and rested her head against Yoru's chest. There were no further intimate gestures, but tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Why did you just do that? It was scary.
