"Alright, you've just returned and there are still many things to prepare. Go ahead and do your thing. I already know about this matter, so leave it to me."
After hearing these words, the worry in Xia Yan's eyes slowly disappeared. After all, he understood Long Ye's methods. So, after Long Ye learned about this matter, Xia Yan stopped interfering.
Meanwhile, on the other side, after learning about this, Shirogane Miyuki's eyes flashed with a trace of guilt. He knew that Natsuhiko had warned him to keep an eye on Kaguya, but at the time he only thought that Kaguya was frightened by what had happened in the past and did not expect that there was something else inside Kaguya's body.
In particular, when Shirogane Miyuki heard Natsuhiko tell him that the thing inside Kaguya's body was extremely harmful, and that it was fortunate that it was discovered in time, otherwise her life would have been in danger, he felt a wave of fear.
He couldn't imagine what Kaguya would be like now if Xia Yan hadn't discovered this in time. Realizing this, the guilt in his eyes deepened. So, to make up for his negligence, Shirogane Miyuki had been taking care of Kaguya at the hospital for the past few days.
Since Kaguya underwent surgery, she has been slowly recovering. Meanwhile, on the other side, although Miyuki Shirogane is currently taking care of Kaguya in the hospital, his brothers are staying at Natsuhiko's house and have no one to take care of them.
Realizing this, a hint of helplessness flashed in Xia Yan's eyes. But after all, it was he who had asked them to move into his house. So he sighed softly and resigned himself to taking care of Shirogane Yuki's group of brothers at home.
Meanwhile, after spending these few days together, Shirogane Yuuki's group of brothers gradually became acquainted with Xia Yan, and they had also heard about some of Xia Yan's deeds before.

Knowing that Xia Yan was a loyal and righteous person, and knowing that he had saved them at that time, they admired him even more after realizing this. Xia Yan himself was also very approachable, so he quickly became one of them.
..... . ...
They usually talked about everything when they met. On this particular day, some people were quite curious because they had gradually noticed in the past few days that Xia Yan and Kaguya seemed to be at odds.
If the two people's relationship wasn't good, it seemed like they had a conflict. Realizing this, the person couldn't contain their curiosity and asked Xia Yan:
"Brother Xia, I think there might be some misunderstanding between you and Kaguya. Kaguya is usually a nice person, so why does she seem to avoid you whenever she sees you? What exactly happened between you two?"
Upon hearing these words, a hint of confusion flashed in the eyes of everyone present.
Chapter 250 Gossip
They had noticed this situation before, and moreover, it was Natsuhiko who discovered Kaguya's problem in time.
Therefore, they became even more curious about the relationship between the two, and those around them began to speculate that they might reconcile.
"Yes, yes, Brother Xia, what exactly happened between you and Kaguya? How did it develop to this point? I can tell that you two must have had a very good relationship before."
"Yes, if it weren't good, how could Brother Xia have noticed Kaguya's problem at a glance? Even Shirogane Miyuki didn't notice it. Besides, I feel that you care about Kaguya quite a bit. What misunderstanding can't you two resolve?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yan frowned deeply. He hadn't expected these people to be so gossipy, but his relationship with Kaguya was far more complicated than they imagined.
Realizing this, a bitter smile slowly appeared on Xia Yan's lips, and he said to the people in front of him:
"Alright, alright, stop gossiping. Nothing happened between Kaguya and me, it's all just a misunderstanding. Whether the misunderstanding can be cleared up or not depends on fate. You should focus on healing your injuries. If you think about it too much, you might end up with chronic injuries."
After saying this, Xia Yan, fearing they would continue to ask questions, excused himself and left. After seeing Xia Yan's figure disappear from their sight, the people exchanged glances, their curiosity slowly deepening.
They were genuinely curious about what had happened between Xia Yan and Kaguya to escalate the situation to this point. Although Xia Yan had just told them it was a misunderstanding, they could tell it was more than just that.
However, since Xia Yan didn't want to talk about it now, they didn't want to force him. After all, in their eyes, Xia Yan was a good person who always thought of them. After realizing this, the helplessness in their eyes gradually deepened.
Meanwhile, after a few days of rest, those people quickly recovered from their injuries. Once their wounds were healed, they no longer wanted to stay at Xia Yan's house. Although Xia Yan had taken great care of them and considered their needs in every way, Xia Yan was, after all, just their friend. If he continued to insist, they would feel embarrassed...
So they took the initiative to say goodbye to Xia Yan. After hearing this, Xia Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of confusion, because in their view, they had gotten along very well these past few days.
However, even after Xia Yan tried to persuade them, Shirogane Yuuki's group of brothers insisted on leaving. Xia Yan couldn't keep them, so after they recovered from their injuries, they left Xia Yan's house.
Meanwhile, on the other side, since these people left his home, Xia Yan's home has gradually become deserted. At first, Xia Yan was a little unaccustomed to it.
However, on the other side, Kaguya's injuries were slowly healing. Since the last time Natsuhiko took Kaguya to the hospital, he hadn't seen her. Chika and Ram, who were standing nearby, saw this and a hint of helplessness flashed in their eyes, but they also knew that Natsuhiko was still quite worried about Kaguya.
Realizing this, they decided to try and persuade Xia Yan. Xia Yan eventually gave in to their persuasion and went with Chika and Ram to see Kaguya that day.
Chapter 251 Drinking
When Xia Yan, Chika, and Ram arrived at the hospital, they saw Shirogane Miyuki taking care of Kaguya. Upon seeing Shirogane Miyuki, a hint of embarrassment flashed in Xia Yan's eyes.
However, since they were there to see Kaguya, he didn't say anything. The group entered the ward together. Kaguya was asleep, so they didn't disturb her. Instead, Shirogane Miyuki spoke to Natsuhiko:
“It will take him a while to wake up. Why don’t we go out and talk first? We haven’t seen each other for quite a while anyway. Qianhua and Ram are fine here.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Yan hesitated for a moment, but he still agreed to Shirogane Miyuki's request. After giving Chika and Ram some instructions, the two of them left.
Meanwhile, Shirogane Miyuki didn't take Xia Yan far. Instead, they went to a small restaurant near the hospital, ordered some dishes and wine, and started drinking.
Gradually, the two became slightly tipsy. Shirogane Miyuki glanced at Xia Yan, seemingly recalling something, a smile slowly spreading across his lips. He then said to Xia Yan:
"I didn't expect so much time to have passed. I suddenly miss our old times. It's really funny when I think about it now."
Xia Yan's expression froze for a moment, not expecting Shirogane Miyuki to say such a thing to him. But he quickly recovered, a smile flashing in his eyes as he recalled past events. He took a sip of the drink beside him and then said to Shirogane Miyuki:
"Who can argue with that? Who would have thought such a situation would arise back then? But thinking back, those were the best times."
Upon hearing this, a hint of agreement flashed in Shirogane Miyuki's eyes, and then he continued:
"We were really close back then. We fought together, drank together, and even trained together behind the teachers' backs. It feels like a dream now."
Upon hearing these words, Xia Yan also fell into reminiscence. Shirogane Miyuki, standing beside him, glanced at Xia Yan, his brow furrowing slightly, his expression suddenly turning serious. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke directly to Xia Yan:
"Actually, there's something I've always wanted to tell you, but I haven't had the chance. I'll tell you it all today."
A strange glint flashed in Xia Yan's eyes, and then he looked at Shirogane Miyuki with confusion. Shirogane Miyuki took a deep breath and then said directly to Xia Yan:
"Actually, I've wanted to tell you for a long time that I really like Kaguya now. I've always liked her, but I was too afraid to tell her because of what happened on May 517. But now, because of this, I'm going to muster up the courage."
After saying these words, Shirogane Miyuki's expression became even more serious, and then he turned to Natsuhiko again and said:
"I know about your past with Kaguya, but I don't care. However, if you still like him, then let's compete fairly. This time, I will definitely not give up easily."
Shirogane Miyuki looked at Xia Yan with a determined expression. Xia Yan frowned slightly, but now that Shirogane Miyuki had already been frank with him, he felt that he had no need to hide anything from Shirogane Miyuki anymore.
Chapter 252 Back to the Hospital
Although he knew very well that he felt extremely awkward meeting Kaguya now, and that the two of them were just avoiding each other, he also felt very guilty because he was the one who discovered Shirogane Miyuki first when Kaguya was poisoned.
Therefore, Xia Yan now fully understands Shirogane Miyuki's thoughts. Realizing this, he sighed softly and then said to Shirogane Miyuki:
"Actually, you misunderstood. Although Kaguya and I did have a past, we are now just friends. Moreover, Kaguya only has feelings for me as a friend, nothing more. We can only be friends."
Upon hearing this, Shirogane Miyuki frowned slightly, then stared intently at Xia Yan, as if afraid he was being lied to. A hint of helplessness flashed in Xia Yan's eyes, and then he said to Shirogane Miyuki:
"It's just that you're too nervous. But what I want to tell you is that now that you've told me you really like Kaguya, please cherish her as a person. She's usually quite competitive and never admits defeat, and she's suffered a lot of hurt. I felt really bad for her back then, so I hope you can treat her better in the future."
“Of course I will treat him well. Since you have already said that you and he are just friends, then don’t interfere in our affairs anymore. That way, we can still be friends.”
Just as Xia Yan finished speaking, Shirogane Miyuki still spoke firmly to him. After seeing this scene, a smile slowly appeared on Xia Yan's lips. In his opinion, it was a good choice for Kaguya to find someone like Xia Yan to protect her for the rest of her life.
Meanwhile, after the two of them explained the situation to each other, their feelings seemed to deepen. However, they did not stay there for long, as they were afraid that Kaguya would wake up and not see them. Realizing this, they ate some more food and bought a lot of other food before taking it back to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Kaguya had already woken up, but when she saw Natsuhiko, a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes. However, she was also very clear in her heart that if Mei hadn't discovered him in time, she might be in danger right now.
Realizing this, Kaguya still said to Natsuhiko:
"Thank you for what happened this time. I would not have woken up yet, thanks to you."
A slow smile crept across Xia Yan's lips, but just as he was about to say something to Kaguya, he suddenly heard Shirogane Miyuki speak from the side:
"Oh, you don't need to thank him. We're friends, after all. He's just being a bit observant. I bought a lot of things. You must be hungry, so hurry up and eat something (Li Dezhao)."
Upon hearing these words, a hint of helplessness flashed in Kaguya's eyes. Xia Yan naturally knew why Shirogane Miyuki had acted this way, but he did not stop him. In his view, Xia Yan's actions now were also a sign that he liked Kaguya.
After they had fed Kaguya, Chika and Ram suddenly looked at each other, a strange expression flashing across their faces. They then walked up to Natsuhiko and saw what was happening.
Chapter 253 Lord Dragon is Enraged
A hint of confusion flashed in Xia Yan's eyes, but before he could ask, he heard Qianhua and Ram say to him:
“We just received a sudden message from Master Long. He said he wants to see you, and it seems he has something important to discuss with you.”
A hint of confusion flashed in Xia Yan's eyes. He knew that if Master Long wanted to contact him, he would definitely notify him directly. The reason why he hadn't been notified directly this time must be because something else had happened.
However, hearing Chika and Ram's anxious tone, Ryuu was very wary. So he didn't waste any time and said goodbye to Kaguya and Shirogane Miyuki directly. Of course, Shirogane Miyuki wouldn't keep him here. In his opinion, Natsuhiko was his rival.
Although Natsuhiko had clearly told him that he had no other feelings for Kaguya and was just a friend, Shirogane Miyuki was unsure whether Kaguya felt the same way. Realizing this, Shirogane Miyuki couldn't wait for Natsuhiko to leave.
Xia Yan naturally saw through Shirogane Miyuki's thoughts, but he didn't take it to heart and went to see Master Long. After seeing Master Long, Master Long's expression suddenly became serious. Seeing this, Xia Yan frowned slightly.
Because he truly didn't know what Chika wanted to do. Could it be about what happened inside Kaguya last time? Realizing this, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, but before he could speak, he suddenly heard Lord Long say to him:
"I won't beat around the bush this time. We're already so close, so I'll just tell you straight up. I didn't come here for anything else; I just want what I took out from Kaguya's body before."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yan's eyes flashed with shock, and he looked at Master Long with great confusion. He felt that Master Long was definitely hiding something from him. Realizing this, Shirogane Yukichi didn't hide his doubts and directly said to Master Long:
"Why would they suddenly need that thing? Has something serious happened? Besides, that thing is a hazardous substance. Have they found some clues about it?"
Upon hearing these words, Master Long's expression became even more serious, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He then spoke to Xia Yan again in a firm tone:
"I've already said that our relationship is like this, so I'm not going to beat around the bush anymore. I want this thing now, so just bring it to me directly. Besides, have you forgotten the things I helped you with before? All I want now is something. Are you going to go back on your word?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yan frowned deeply. He didn't understand what had made Master Long so angry that he brought up the matter of helping him before.
But now that Master Long has brought up that matter, Xia Yan has nothing to say, since in his opinion it is indeed something he should do.
Although Xia Yan felt quite strange about it, wondering why Master Long suddenly wanted the things that had been taken from Kaguya's body, he couldn't say much since Master Long was pressuring him with the fact that he had helped her before.
Chapter 254 Satisfaction
Moreover, in Xia Yan's opinion, he couldn't find any clues about that thing in his own hands, so he might as well just give it to Master Long. After realizing this, Xia Yan didn't hesitate and went directly to Master Long with the thing he wanted, and handed it over to him.
Upon seeing this scene, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Master Long's eyes. In his opinion, Xia Yan's actions this time were extremely satisfactory.
He glanced at the things Xia Yan had brought and frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what they were, he understood perfectly well that they would be of great benefit to them.
After this point, a strange look flashed in Master Long's eyes, while Xia Yan, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly upon seeing this scene, a hint of doubt flashing through his mind.
Because he doesn't understand why Dragon Lord wants to take something out of Kaguya's body, since the doctor's assessment shows that this thing is very harmful to the human body.
Realizing this, Xia Yan frowned deeply. However, Master Long was still observing the thing. Seeing this scene, even though Master Long tried to suppress him by mentioning that he had helped him in the past, Xia Yan still felt that something was amiss. Realizing this, he frowned even more.
Standing to the side, Master Long glanced at the object, then looked back at Xia Yan, a slow smile spreading across his lips. He then said to him:
"Great, great. I knew it. You never let me down, no matter what you do. I'm very satisfied with what happened today."
After saying these words, Master Long patted Xia Yan on the shoulder. Xia Yan frowned deeply because he was full of doubts about this matter. He didn't know what Master Long wanted to do.
Moreover, knowing that this substance is extremely harmful to the human body, and that it would pose a great danger if it were to leak out, a strange glint flashed in his eyes after realizing this.
Because of this matter, Xia Yan felt very uncomfortable, so he glanced at Master Long, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes, but in the end he still said to Master Long:
0 ····Requesting flowers···· ·········
"Master Long, now that this thing is in your hands, there's no way I can take it back. So can you tell me what's going on? Why are you so insistent on having this thing?"
After saying this, Xia Yan glanced at Master Long's body again, sighed softly, and then spoke to him once more:
