Anime Crossover: My Youth Begins with Charlotte

Page 164

She had just finished packing and was getting ready to go home when she received a phone call from home.

Hey, Xiaoye, are you busy today?

Mom, I've finished all my work for today and am ready to go home.

Xiaoye, let's go home today. Mom will cook you something delicious, okay?

Mom, I'll go home as soon as I finish the manuscript. You and Dad can wait for me at home.

After saying that, Kaguya prepared to go back, but her phone received a text message.

Kaguya, where are you? Xia Yan is in trouble, come to XX Hospital quickly!

Kaguya's palms were sweating profusely when she saw the text message.

A taxi sped by.

Driver! Hurry to XX Hospital!

She completely forgot that she had prepared a gift for her mother and left it in the taxi.

He hurriedly got out of the car and rushed into the hospital.

Waiting for news from Xia Yan with the classmates outside the door.

Unable to calm herself, only hesitant, unsteady steps remained, carrying with them a surge of hot, turbulent emotions that were about to burst forth.

After a while, the lights outside the operating room went out.

The crowd rushed anxiously to the operating room door, surrounding the doctor and asking about the situation.

The doctor took off his mask and said slowly.

Who are the family members?

"I...I am Kaguya," she whispered. Her voice was barely audible, as if she were afraid of knowing something.

The patient's condition is relatively optimistic. Since it's due to prolonged fatigue, we recommend they go home and rest for a few days; there's nothing seriously wrong.

As his girlfriend, you really need to take good care of your boyfriend. Sigh, young people these days…

Hearing that there was no serious problem, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Kaguya checked the time on her phone; it was already 6 PM.

Oh my god!! It's Mom's birthday! But where's my watch? I frantically searched every pocket I could find. What would I find?

Did you lose it on the way?

She rushed back to school to look for her watch, but after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find it. She searched everywhere she could think of, from her desk and cabinets to her bed in the dormitory, but still couldn't find it.

... ...... .......

She finally gave up. Heartbroken and dejected, she walked slowly down the street.

As if the heavens were echoing his mood, a light, misty rain began to fall.

He saw that it was raining heavily and he couldn't walk any further, so he had no choice but to go back into the school to take shelter from the rain. He would wait until the rain stopped before continuing.

Once inside the classroom, he found a seat and sat down, sobbing and burying his face in his arms on the desk.

Everything's ruined, it's all my fault!

Ding-dong! A new text message notification popped up. Kaguya took out her phone and looked at it.

"Where are you? They said you came, so why did you leave?" This was a message Xia Yan sent him.

"Um... I'll look for something at school. It's raining, so I'll go into the classroom to take shelter." Kaguya typed a reply on her phone.

I'll come pick you up! Fan.

Chapter Fifty-Five: The Butler

Kaguya waited alone at the school gate for a long time, and as it got dark, Natsuhiko still hadn't arrived. She was already feeling down, and Natsuhiko's continued absence only added to her sadness.

Kaguya felt even more distressed. The weather was gloomy, as if the heavens were deliberately setting the tone for Kaguya's mood.

People came and went around her, and those who knew Kaguya greeted her, but Kaguya had no mood to chat with them. She felt cold inside.

Worried that something might have happened to Kaguya, the butler drove out of Kaguya's house to check on her at school. He sped along the way, as he had raised Kaguya like his own child.

However, this was precisely the rush hour, and the roads were incredibly congested, barely moving for ages. This worried the housekeeper greatly. He kept honking the horn, but there were just too many cars, and honking was useless.

The housekeeper was so anxious he almost got out of the car and ran over. Finally, after an hour of traffic jam, the car slowly started moving again.

The butler quickly started the car and drove to Kaguya's school. By the time he arrived, it was almost dark. From a distance, the butler could see the young lady standing alone at the school gate.

It was clear she was in a bad mood, so the butler parked the car on the side of the road and walked over.

"Miss, what are you doing here? The master is very worried. Come back with me quickly, let's go." With that, the butler went to pull Kaguya into the car.

Kaguya snatched the butler's hand away. "You go back first. I'll stay here for a while and go back by myself later."

The butler said, "Miss, please come back with me. It's getting dark and so cold. Don't let yourself get cold or sick. Listen to me, come back with me."

"I said I'm not going back, you go back by yourself!" Kaguya said impatiently to the butler.

At this moment, everyone around noticed Kaguya. Seeing that Kaguya was throwing a tantrum, the butler had no choice but to walk aside and dial the master's number without saying a word.

"Master, Miss isn't going back. No matter what I say, it's no use. Why don't you talk to her?" the butler said into the phone.

"Okay, give the phone to the young lady, I'll talk to her, and you can bring her back later." A deep male voice came from the phone.

"Miss, it's the master on the phone." The butler walked over and handed the phone to Kaguya.

"Dad," Kaguya said.

"Kaguya, how old are you to still be throwing a tantrum? Hurry up and come back with the butler, he'll make you something delicious."

Hearing the voice on the phone, Kaguya knew she had no choice but to go back. She could only say, "Okay, Dad, I understand. I'll go back with the butler right away." After saying that, Kaguya hung up the phone.

"Miss, how is it? Are you going back?" the butler asked Kaguya as he approached her.

"Okay, let's go back. Dad just told me. Let's go." Kaguya said to the butler. She knew it must have been the butler who called her father, but she didn't know what to say, since the butler had always been very good to her since childhood.

She also considered him family. After Kaguya finished speaking, she told the butler to walk ahead while she followed behind, hoping to see if she could spot Natsuhiko coming over on April 4.9th.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Xia Yan was rushing towards the school. Because he was a little delayed, he called Kaguya but she didn't answer. He had no choice but to hurry over.

He feared Kaguya would be waiting for him there, and Xia Yan was right; Kaguya really did wait for him all day. She only left after receiving a phone call from her father.

Chapter Fifty-Six: Passing By

Just before Kaguya followed the butler into the car, she kept turning her head to see if Natsuhiko had arrived. She looked for a long time, but he still hadn't come. She finally got into the car, head down, feeling very disappointed.

Just as Kaguya got into the car, Natsuhiko finally arrived, but Kaguya was already in the car. She was too preoccupied with her heartbroken head to notice Natsuhiko's arrival. Natsuhiko, too, didn't notice Kaguya in the car.

The car started and drove past Xia Yan, but fate played a trick on them, and neither of them saw the other.

Xia Yan wandered around the school gate for a while, but didn't see Kaguya. He assumed Kaguya 04 was busy and might be back soon. So he waited there.

The weather was getting a bit chilly, and Xia Yan, dressed in thin clothes, was shivering. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it silently, hoping to relieve the cold.

After a while, Shirogane Miyuki came out of the school gate, saw Natsuhiko standing there, and walked over.

"Hey, isn't this Xia Yan? Why are you standing here dressed so lightly in this cold weather? Aren't you afraid of getting cold? You're such a strange person."

Xia Yan saw that the person who came was Shirogane Miyuki, and ignored him, which made Shirogane Miyuki feel very embarrassed.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Did you really freeze to the point of deafness?" Shirogane Miyuki said when he saw that Natsuhiko was ignoring him.

"You're the one who's freezing and deaf! Why are you wearing so much? Are you trying to get through winter? Aren't you hot? Aren't you afraid of bugs? I'm not wearing much because I just finished running and I'm resting here. I'm very hot," Xia Yan replied confidently.

Shirogane Miyuki was furious and immediately started cursing at Natsuhiko.

There was quite a commotion here, and people gathered around to watch the spectacle between Xia Yan and Bai Yin Yuxing.

Fortunately, Xia Yan's classmate was among the onlookers, and he immediately stepped forward to act as a peacemaker between the two of them.

"Oh dear, Xia Yan, don't be angry. That's just how he is, he's always so sharp-tongued. And you, Shirogane Yuyuki, what are you saying all this time? It's none of your business, just go do what you're supposed to be doing."

Hearing this, Shirogane Miyuki clearly felt that the words were in favor of Natsuhiko, which made him even angrier. However, seeing so many people around them pointing and whispering, Shirogane Miyuki was afraid that things would escalate, so he held back.

"Hmph, I'm not going to stoop to his level. He's like a dog biting Lü Dongbin, ungrateful for kindness. He deserves to freeze to death. Let him wait and see; Feng won't be able to go to class tomorrow," said Shirogane Miyuki, hands in his pockets.

After saying that, Shirogane Miyuki turned and walked outside. Xia Yan watched his retreating figure, quite angry. But thinking of Kaguya, he held back his anger.

Soon everyone dispersed. It was as if nothing had happened. Xia Yan threw away his 367 cigarette butt, stomped it out, and calmed himself down.

Afterwards, Xia Yan continued to wait for Kaguya there. He didn't know that Kaguya had already gone home. He just kept waiting and waiting until nine o'clock in the evening, when it was already dark. The moon was hanging in the sky.

Xia Yan looked at the sky and saw that it was already so late. He wondered if Kaguya would come. A sense of disappointment washed over him, and he looked up at the moon in the sky, gazing at it intently.

Xia Yan looked around and saw that everyone was walking home. The night was very cold.

He had no choice but to walk towards home as well. All the way, he kept thinking about why Kaguya hadn't come. Kaguya, too, was thinking about why Natsuhiko hadn't come. And so, Natsuhiko arrived home and lay down on his bed.

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Returning Home

The sky was very dark, the moon hung in the sky, and the streetlights shone on the road. A figure walked slowly along the road. That person was Xia Yan. Because of the darkness of the night, the park lights appeared dim and hazy. Cars came and went on the road, and the lights flickered, hurting people's eyes.

Xia Yan returned home feeling dejected. Opening the door, he saw the lights were still on and wondered, "Is that Kaguya? Why isn't she asleep yet? She's probably waiting for me." Xia Yan changed into slippers at the door, went inside, and called out, "Kaguya, Kaguya, I'm home."

After calling several times without hearing Kaguya's voice, he wondered if she was angry with him, or if she wasn't there. He went to the living room to turn on the TV and found Chika asleep on the sofa. "This little girl was probably waiting for me on the sofa, but I didn't expect her to fall asleep while waiting," Xia Yan muttered to himself, looking at the sleeping Chika. He then got up and picked Chika up, intending to carry her to the bedroom. The sofa was too uncomfortable. Entering the bedroom, Xia Yan gently placed Chika on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and turned to leave. Just then, Chika slowly opened her sleepy eyes.

"Xia Yan~ 371?" Is it Xia Yan back? 729119

Chika opened her eyes, looking like she hadn't woken up yet, and said.

"Yes, it's me. When I got back, I saw you sleeping on the sofa, so I carried you into the bedroom to sleep," Xia Yan said to Qian Hua after she woke up.

"By the way, where's Kaguya? She hasn't come back yet?!"

"Kaguya? Wasn't she with you? I haven't seen her at home all day." Chika sat up and said to Natsuhiko.

"What? Kaguya hasn't come back all day? I waited for her at the school gate for a long time but she didn't show up. I thought she had come back."

"Huh? What should we do then? Shall we go find her together?" Qianhua frowned.

Xia Yan comforted him, saying, "Alright, alright, I'll go find it. You can rest assured and make sure you're well-rested for school tomorrow."

"Alright then, be careful," Qianhua instructed.

After settling Chika in, he rushed out of the house to find Kaguya.
