Chapter 47 "Harmonious" Atmosphere
"Aunt Haruka, I came here suddenly, I haven't greeted you in advance, I'm sorry." Akino Xiyuanji didn't have much surprised expression when he saw Haruka Sakuraba coming out of it.

After all, this is her shop, so it's normal to meet her.

Sakuraba Haruka heard Xiyuanji Akino's polite and unfamiliar language, her smile faltered a little.

As I said before, she doesn't want such a change in Xiyuanji Akino. It's better to maintain the timid character in the past, so as to control it better, but now...

However, Sakuraba Haruka is a person who has experienced so many things anyway, and she still has the confidence to hold him.

"Why are you being so polite with me?"

"Come on, will you sit with me in the reception room?"

Haruka Sakuraba stretched out her hand to Akino Saienji with an extremely gentle smile.

Xiyuanji Akino nodded, but did not brush off her face.

Anyway, at present, he is still his legal guardian and his legitimate stepmother.

Holding Xiyuanji Akino's hand, Haruka Sakuraba could feel some rough calluses on his palm and fingertips, and couldn't help but look at him more by the way.

Now Xiyuanji Akino has handsome features, fair skin, piercing eyes, and a self-confidence that comes from within.

Is this really his stepson?What happened in just one week?
"What's wrong? Aunt Haruka?"

"Ah...it's nothing, I just think that you have become a lot more handsome, Akino-kun. Did you really have a girlfriend recently?"

Xiyuanji Akino shook his head with a chuckle, "I just want to make some changes. I just came here with my friends to buy some things. I passed by here just now and wanted to see you."

"Look at me?" Sakura Ting Yaoxiang was stunned.

"Well, since you haven't been back recently, I'm a little worried if you're overworked."

Sakuraba Haruka felt a little dazed for a while, is this really the same person?Why do you say these warm words so naturally?And before he knew it, the dominance of the words went to him...

Worried about me... Seriously?
A kind of extraordinarily complicated feelings welled up in her heart, Sakuraba Haruka reluctantly smiled, and took advantage of the opportunity to sell miserably, "Overwork, it's true, after all, you can also see that our business here is not very good."

These words came from a mouth with a ruddy complexion and extremely smooth skin, no matter how false they sounded.

But Xiyuanji Akino comforted her with a smile, "Aunt Haruka, this is just a temporary Mercury retrograde, and sooner or later there will be a chance to turn around and counterattack."

While saying this, he also took the opportunity to let go of the hand that was held.

Sakuraba Haruka found the feeling of selling miserably, opened the door, and asked the lady at the front desk to bring tea and snacks. After they both sat on the sofa, she continued to say that the business was not going well during this period, and she hit a wall everywhere experience.

In order to act more realistically, most of what she said was true.

When talking about some experiences of being targeted by bad guys, her eye sockets still couldn't help turning red, and she shed a few tears, completely showing the posture of a weak and mature woman.

After Xiyuanji Akino listened, he naturally comforted her repeatedly and cooperated with her.

After more than ten minutes, Sakuraba Haruka finished chatting about herself, wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue, and then began to care about the situation of Akino Xiyuanji at school, "How do you feel at school recently? In terms of studies, or interpersonal relationships Did you run into any trouble?"

Obviously, she never cared about herself before, but now she suddenly acts like this, saying that she has no plans in her heart is false.

But Xiyuanji Akino remained calm, and he truthfully stated some of his difficulties.

"Well... It's okay in studies, but it's really not going well in interpersonal relationships."

"Although there are efforts to make changes, there are still very few people who can accept me."

"Auntie can see your hard work. You have changed so much now, and you must have paid a lot behind your back. Believe in yourself, as long as you persevere, everyone will accept you!" Sakuraba Haruka grabbed Xiyuanji Akino's hands , looking very "sincerely" into his eyes.

"Thank you, Auntie... I thought...Auntie, you've always hated me..." Xiyuanji Akino seemed relieved, he pursed his lips and smiled.

Sakuraba Haruka's face froze slightly, "How could that be? In fact, I have always treated you and Qianxue as equals before, but... your personality was relatively sensitive at that time, and I also felt that it was inappropriate to say a lot of things to you, for fear of irritating you. you."

"I was really gloomy in the past, and I caused you a lot of trouble at that time. I would like to apologize to you here."

"No, no, what is Akino-kun doing now?"

"Anyway... We are also family members, aren't we?" Sakuraba Haruka said hastily, thinking of the words Xiyuanji Akino had taken the initiative to mention to her before.

"Well, you are right, we are family."

Sakuraba Haruka looked at the boy's slightly youthful smile, and felt that everything was in line with her imagination.

Sure enough, even if there is a change, the nature of this child is still the same. I just need to put in more thought and let him sign the contract under the title of family member, then all problems will be solved easily.

By this time, Sakuraba Haruka has already figured it out. After this time, she doesn't want to do business anymore. She honestly takes the last inheritance to enjoy life, and then it's enough for her daughter to go to college. .

It took ten years to do business, and so far no achievements, which also really shows that in today's society, it is really difficult for female entrepreneurs to move forward.

I don't want to betray myself because of some benefit exchange, and I don't want to drink and clink glasses with those bald old guys all day long.

Other than the gift-giving visits, I tried everything I could, but it was still in vain.

After filling up the current debts owed by this store, let's leave a few hundred thousand to this stepson, so that he can spend his high school life in peace, which can be regarded as his best.

She herself has no guilt at all for depriving Xiyuanji Akino of the property that she could have inherited. After all, she has no relationship with his father after marriage, and it is even difficult to see him after marriage. As a second marriage object?

Is it because I have a daughter who is about the same age?

Sakuraba Haruka felt that the atmosphere was good now, so she smiled and said, "This is a rare opportunity, since that's the case, shall we go home together tonight?"

"Go home together?"

"Well, Auntie thinks what you said is very reasonable, overwork is not good, and... Akino-kun, you seldom eat meals cooked by Auntie. Auntie has been seldom taking care of you because of work... I still feel a little guilty .”

"Let me make it up to you tonight, okay?" Sakuraba Haruka asked gently.

Xiyuanji Akino blinked, hesitated for a while, then nodded, "Then I will trouble you."

"No trouble~"
