Chapter 1105 - A Trivial Request (2/2)
Xia Lei didn’t knohere to hold his gaze
Tsukino Kyoko inched forward into the pool until the clear waters sublanced at him
Now, Xia Lei didn’t knohat to do
She began, “Before you caain I even received a call froyu Yuichi called you…?” Xia Lei could only sht you in your childhood So about the country and people and the spirit of the saht?”
Tsukino Kyoko nodded solemnly
“You said yes?” Xia Lei studied her expression
Tsukino Kyoko sighed “I told hiue answer
Xia Lei couldn’t understand her thoughts
They both fell silent, gazes firmly on one another One was clothed, the other was in her birthday suit
It went on for a fullsilence “I bought a flight ticket hoht in my breast pocket”
Xia Lei’s left eye twitched, i in on the plane ticket in her pocket While he had already learned of her decision, the sight of the plane ticket still stung All members of the Chinese Zodiac Battle Team were brothers and sisters to him They were family Plus, the fact that Tsukino Kyoko was a woman who had relations with him had made this whole fareay harder than anticipated
“My flight is later at one in the an to tre to fall apart “I… I’ll drive you there”
Tsukino Kyoko smiled “But it’s not on me”
Perplexed, Xia Lei asked, “What do you mean?”
“You told me to choose between my country, where the fate of my people and master lie and you, a man that I’m madly in love with I don’t kno to choose How about youme to decide on your behalf?” Xia Lei’s eyes ide “Of course I wouldn’t want you to leave But I don’t want you to be in pain by forcing you to stay You’d face the attacks fro me when that time comes or would you keep out of the battle? I don’t wish to cos for you and I certainly don’t wish to hurt your feelings So…”
Tsukino Kyoko interjected, “Back at e if a man really liked a woman, he’d help her cleanse the filth off her body If you really care about ing, gazing at the ticket in her shi+rt pocket
Her ticket home was in that blouse
Xia Lei stood up and went towards her
All Tsukino Kyoko wanted was his response or so in his heart It was a trivial request and if he wasn’t willing to do that, there was no point for her to stay behind There was no point betraying japan, her people and even her master to serve a an to scrub her back with a soft smile “Do men do this for their women back home?”
“Only those in love or a couple would do this” A ss scattered around , you’re bound to walk in on a few intio out” Tsukino Kyoko’s eyes flew shut, body esture meant the world to her
“What will you do when your master co he needed to know first
The fe inside “If he doesn’t do anything to you, I will not do anything to him If he touches you, I’ll kill him”
This was Tsukino Kyoko’s answer
The members of the Chinese Zodiac Battle Team had all tasted the despair and coldness of the world at a very young age They had lived most of their early years in an environment that shaped their ruthless persona Anyone who aided them would have their kindness paid in their service Tsukino Kyoko was adopted by Xia Changhe before she was sent to Yagyu Yuichi’s dojo for her ninjutsu training Both Xia Changhe and Yagyu Yuichi had shown her kindness Xia Lei had replaced Xia Changhe in this aspect, not to mention that she was deeply ena to offer hi she had That hy the arrival of her decision was a difficult process The dilemma was tortuous Otherwise, ould she find the need for such a trivial request?
“Thank you” A genuine expression of gratitude from Xia Lei
Tsukino Kyoko replied with a sweet honey-like sas”
Xia Lei nodded A wordless promise
