Crossover anime, and you call this a slice-of-life story?

Before the other person even had a chance to speak, Hayasaka Ai unleashed all the words she could think of, avoiding Kaguya, and then hung up the phone.

"Hu-hu-"

Her chest heaved violently; she had never cursed anyone like that before, and her face flushed with excitement.

After a while, once she had calmed down, Hayasaka Ai's eyes also reddened.

Shangguan Yun silently observed Hayasaka Ai's changes, then tapped his finger lightly on the table, a blue light flashing in his eyes.

Located in the main family home in Kyoto, Shinomiya Hikari stared blankly at the phone that had already been disconnected.

They had no idea what was happening; all they heard was their deceased mother being insulted.

It is worth mentioning that the eldest and second sons of the Shinomiya family were born to the first wife of the head of the Shinomiya family, Shinomiya Kanan, while the third son was born to his second wife. As for Shinomiya Kaguya's mother, Shinomiya Nayatake, she was merely a concubine of Shinomiya Kanan.

Therefore, Kaguya Shinomiya was not affected by Hayasaka Ai's extremely offensive insults.

"Damn it! Does she even know who she's talking to?! Does she think she can go against me just because she has Kaguya as her backer?"

"Hayasaka Ai, very well! I'd like to see how my little sister, who is destined to be a tool for a family marriage, will manage to protect you!"

Just as Shinomiya Kōkō, consumed by rage, was about to arrange for someone to capture the insane Hayasaka Ai and deal with her properly,

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a fierce wind swept across the sky, and a thick cloud covered the entire Shinomiya residence.

Blinding lightning surged within the clouds, like several thunder dragons galloping through them.

Many members of the Shinomiya family were shocked by the bizarre and terrifying scene in the sky.

Huang Guang also stepped out of the room and saw the thunderclouds that did not resemble a natural phenomenon.

For some reason, a sense of fear rose in my heart.

I was just about to go back inside to calm myself down.

however--

"boom!!!"

A bolt of lightning, as thick as a water vat, struck down instantly, hitting Huang Guang in the head.

Before he could even scream, Shinomiya Hikari's figure was instantly vaporized by the lightning.

Then, the dark clouds mysteriously dissipated.

All that remained was the chaotic Shinomiya family.

Chapter 82 Kaguya Shinomiya: "I'm going to confess to the president tomorrow!"

"Thank you, Shangguan Jun."

As she walked out of the coffee shop, Hayasaka Ai's eyes were a little red and swollen, and her tone was somewhat embarrassed.

The thought of how many foul words she had uttered in front of the other person made her want to disappear into the ground.

'Oh no, I'm doomed. In his eyes, I must have become a delinquent girl who talks trash all the time.'

Ignoring the change in address from Senior Shangguan to Lord Shangguan, Shangguan Yun said, "Just go back and act as usual. I believe you can handle the call records you made earlier with your abilities."

When Hayasaka Ai heard that it was about serious matters, she came to her senses and replied, "No problem. My call records with Shinomiya Hikari are encrypted. They are automatically deleted after being made, so they can't be traced back to me at all."

"That's good. It's getting late, let's go back."

Shangguan Yun acted as if nothing had happened, as if killing Huang Guang, one of the Four Palaces, was a trivial matter.

Hayasaka Ai stared intently at Shangguan Yun, a sudden impulse welling up inside her.

In a moment of impulsiveness, he rushed forward and hugged Shangguan Yun tightly.

He buried his face in Shangguan Yun's chest, took a deep breath, and whispered, "Thank you..."

Then she let go of his hand, her head bowed, seemingly unable to look at his expression, "I...I'm sorry..."

My heart was pounding wildly, as if it were about to jump out of my chest.

'I actually hugged her on my own initiative... Miss, I really didn't mean to...'

Hayasaka Ai felt a renewed sense of guilt towards Shinomiya Kaguya.

However, this sense of guilt did not produce any negative emotions in her; on the contrary, it gave her a vague feeling of...excitement?

He quickly shook his head, trying to shake off the unhealthy thoughts from his mind.

She was very grateful that Shangguan Yun hadn't dodged just now; with his strength, dodging would have been incredibly easy.

If the other person had dodged her move just now, Hayasaka Ai probably would have been incredibly embarrassed...

"Kaguya is still waiting for you at home, isn't she? Is it alright for you to go back so late?"

Seeing that Hayasaka Ai seemed to be falling into deep thought again, Shangguan Yun reminded her.

Given that the other party had just experienced a severe shock, Shangguan Yun forgave his somewhat rash actions...

Reminded, Hayasaka Ai glanced at the time and her expression froze.

Oh no! How come it's so late?!

Then he remembered that after he finished yelling at Shinomiya Hiromitsu on the phone, he fell silent and didn't pay attention to the passage of time at all.

"I...I'll go back now, I'm sorry!"

Hayasaka Ai bowed deeply and hurriedly ran towards the Shinomiya Villa.

Seeing that Hayasaka Ai was becoming somewhat reckless, Shangguan Yun shook his head and also walked towards his home.

……

"Hayasaka, why are you so late? Did something happen on the way?"

As soon as Hayasaka returned to the Shinomiya Villa, he was caught red-handed by Shinomiya Kaguya.

Seeing the worried look on Kaguya Shinomiya's face, Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but feel guilty towards the young lady once again.

If the young lady found out that she had impulsively hugged her Chairman Shangguan, she would definitely kill him...

Hayasaka Ai decided to keep this matter completely hidden in her heart and was determined not to let Kaguya know.

"Nothing happened, I just forgot the time."

Although it sounds weak, this is the only explanation Hayasaka Ai can offer for now.

"Is that right?"

Kaguya Shinomiya was somewhat suspicious; she had a feeling that Hayasaka was hiding something from her lately.

However, since the other party was unwilling to tell her, Kaguya Shinomiya did not want to force them to tell her.

Everyone has a few secrets, right?

Just like Hayasaka Ai doesn't even know why she's so fond of that teacup.

Thinking of this, Kaguya Shinomiya's face flushed slightly, but she quickly covered it up.

Remembering Hayasaka Ai's purpose for going out, Kaguya Shinomiya asked nervously, "How did it go? Did the student council president go to that coffee shop to meet with other girls?"

"Cough cough..."

Hayasaka Ai coughed twice, causing Shinomiya Kaguya's beautiful eyes to widen. "Could it be... could it be that the president is really on a date with another woman?!"

"Well... there is indeed a girl, but she doesn't seem to be very familiar with President Shangguan."

Hayasaka Ai briefly recounted her encounter with Kasumigaoka Utaha to Shinomiya Kaguya.

Although Hayasaka described the fox spirit named Kasumigaoka Utaha as having nothing going on with the student council president, Kaguya still wore a look of gritted teeth.

She'd never even had the experience of sitting and having coffee with the president before!

'Looks like sending Hayasaka along was the right thing to do. A vixen eyeing the student council president appeared out of nowhere without my knowledge.'

“Miss, I think that with President Shangguan’s status and excellence, more and more girls will fall for him in the future. If you don’t act quickly, someone else may beat you to it.”

Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but speak up to remind her young lady, who had been hesitant to take any action.

President Shangguan has clearly developed some feelings for you. If you dare to press your advantage, Miss, your chances of success will be much greater than others.

However, my young lady's personality is too passive, and she needs enough stimulation to take the initiative.

With this in mind, Hayasaka Ai decided to take drastic measures.

"As far as I know, in addition to the other party's cousin, several beautiful girls also live in the apartment under Chairman Shangguan's name. These are beautiful girl tenants."

"Besides, given her status, if you don't take action soon, the position of the legal wife will belong to someone else. Are you willing to be overshadowed by another woman?"

Kaguya Shinomiya was almost unable to process Hayasaka Ai's piercing words.

But she knew the other person was right.

Given Shangguan Yun's status, it's unlikely he'll marry only one woman in the future, as monogamy is rare among members of major families.

Her position in the Shinomiya family was actually quite awkward. Although she was the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, as the daughter of a concubine, she had no chance of inheriting the Shinomiya family.

They either had to choose sides and find an older brother to rely on, or become a tool for family alliances through marriage.

However, neither of these options is what Kaguya Shinomiya wants.

Not to mention that the eldest daughter of the Sigong family would never marry someone as a concubine, if her cheap father knew that the other party was from the Shangguan family, he would agree to it without hesitation, even if it meant becoming a concubine.

Even on the surface, the Shangguan family's strength far surpasses that of the Shigong family. If Shigong Yan'an had the opportunity to climb up to the Shangguan family, she would probably be laughing in her dreams.

However, Kaguya Shinomiya was unwilling to have her feelings decided in a transactional way.

She wanted to pursue the person she loved herself, rather than be used as a bargaining chip in a marriage alliance.

The thought of being outshone by other vixens, forced to serve them tea and water like a maid, sent a chill down Kaguya's spine.

This must never be allowed to happen!

"I...I'll confess to the president tomorrow!"

Kaguya Shinomiya gritted her teeth; after being spurred on by Ai Hayasaka, she felt she couldn't delay any longer.

"Ahem, that's not what I meant..."

Hayasaka Ai was startled by Kaguya Shinomiya's sudden decisiveness and quickly tried to stop her.

How can you be so reckless?

"What I mean is, there's no rush to confess. What you should do now is to cultivate a relationship with President Shangguan and take the initiative to invite him out, just the two of you. You haven't gone out alone with him yet, have you?"

"Okay...it seems so..."

Thinking about it, Kaguya realized that she had never gone out alone with the president. Either her plans were disrupted by Fujiwara and his group, or she was accompanied by several third wheels when she went out.

Kaguya Shinomiya was a little puzzled. Why was Hayasaka, who had never been in a relationship, so experienced?

Chapter 83 So what if I wiped out your clan once?

After being bombarded with a whole bunch of dating plans by Hayasaka Ai, Kaguya Shinomiya felt a little dizzy.

Although what the other party said made a lot of sense, for some reason, Kaguya Shinomiya always felt that Hayasaka didn't seem to ask for her opinion much.

It was like... she was fantasizing about where she would go on a date, which made her feel no sense of involvement at all.

Lying on her luxurious bed, with only half her head showing, Kaguya Shinomiya reminisced about everything that had happened since she was invited by the student council president to join the student council last September.

Her opinion of this man, who always outshone her and performed flawlessly, changed from prejudice and distrust to liking and even admiration.

Even her personality has changed without her realizing it.

With her eyes closed, all she could see in her mind was Shangguan Yun's image. As if she had thought of something, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and she gradually drifted off to sleep.

Early the next morning, Kaguya Shinomiya received a letter from the main family in Kyoto, asking her to return to the main family as soon as possible.

Because his elder brother, Shinomiya Hiromitsu, died mysteriously last night.

Upon hearing the news, Kaguya Shinomiya felt no sadness whatsoever for the death of her loved one.
