Chapter 73 It was the wrong payment after all
Thank you for the little gift: "Bright lights, running against the wind, what's it to you?"
The reason I asked Conan to leave earlier was so as not to embarrass her too much. Now that Conan is gone, there are only the two of them in the room, and the door was closed early on.
Yukiko scrutinized him and snapped.
"Who are you? Why are you impersonating Shinichi?!"
Su Xingbo chuckled mischievously, "What? You've already forgotten your husband?"
"Yusaku?" No, Yukiko immediately realized.
"Yusaku isn't nearly as big as you, nor has he been around for as long. Tell me quickly, who are you?"
Su Xingbai was all smiles. Each time he cooked, it would take more than an hour of work, and his skills were top-notch. Everyone who used his cooking skills gave him a thumbs up.
I must say: This is truly amazing!
There was no need to continue pretending at this point. He put away the human skin mask and placed it into the system space, revealing his true appearance.
Su Xingbo has good facial bone structure and three-dimensional features. Unlike the typical fair-skinned young man with red lips and white teeth, he has become more defined and angular with the passage of time.
His eyes were like wine, alluring yet unwavering; a slight curve to his lips revealed a captivating, tender charm that could bewitch anyone, his roguish and adorable demeanor making hearts flutter and faces blush.
His clothes were very ordinary, clean, and simple. Even in ordinary clothes, his prominent pectoral muscles were visible from his chest.
Yukiko was momentarily stunned, her face growing increasingly flushed as she looked, her legs pressed tightly together.
Seeing this, Su Xingbo raised an eyebrow and said teasingly, "What, are you captivated by me?"
Yukiko snapped out of her daze, a blush rising to her face. She feigned composure and said, "Hmph, stop being so narcissistic. You still haven't told me who you really are."
Su Xingbo placed his hands on the sofa and slowly said, "Well, I come from another world. I only came here by chance. I was just looking for some fun, but I didn't expect to meet such a beautiful woman like you."
Yukiko frowned slightly, remaining vigilant despite her doubts: "What you're saying is hard to believe. What exactly is your purpose in coming here?"
Su Xingbo took a small step forward, getting closer to Yukiko and whispering, "Perhaps my goal has now become pursuing you." Yukiko quickly took a step back, but her heart inexplicably raced: "Don't talk nonsense."
Just then, her phone rang, and Yukiko, as if grasping at a lifeline, quickly ran to the side to answer it.
While on the phone, Yukiko secretly glanced at Su Xingbai out of the corner of her eye.
An anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yukiko, where are you right now? Shinichi and Professor Agasa just called me and said you've been taken hostage by the Black Organization. Is that true? Do you need me to come back right away?"
After receiving the call, Kudo Yusaku immediately called Yukiko to check on her safety.
Yukiko took a deep breath and whispered, "I'm fine, I'm safe now, you don't need to come back for now." After hanging up the phone, it took her a while to calm down and turn to face Su Xingbo.
Su Xingbo looked at her with a half-smile, as if he saw through everything. "Looks like someone cares about you."
Yukiko said with a stern face, "No matter who you are, this is not a place for you to linger. Please leave."
You're joking. This is my home. Why would I leave?
Su Xingbo showed no intention of leaving. He gently raised his hand, and a beautiful rose appeared out of thin air in his hand, which he handed to Yukiko.
Although he doesn't have Kid's magic tricks, he has a system space. It's incredibly easy for him to conjure things out of thin air or make something disappear.
“Let’s be formal for our first meeting. This flower represents my sincerity.” Yukiko hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and took the flower. The moment she touched it, the rose transformed into a bouquet of 99 roses.
She gently touched the rose petals and found that they were still covered with water droplets. She smelled them and they were still very fresh.
I squeezed the flower roots and found that they still had some soil on them, still damp soil, just like when they were dug out of the ground.
Yukiko was shocked and looked at Su Xingbai in disbelief: "Is this also magic?"
She had seen Kuroba Toichi perform magic tricks before when she was learning the art of disguise, but she had never seen anything so outrageous.
Su Xingbo shrugged innocently: "What else could this be but magic? Could it be some kind of sorcery?"
Speaking of magic, he remembered that there really was a magician here. He thought he would visit him sometime and see if he could learn any magic.
And Koizumi Akako is also incredibly beautiful.
In the villa on the other side, Koizumi Akako felt surrounded by malice, but it vanished in an instant.
This caught her attention. She took out a crystal ball, muttered some incantation, and soon a grinning man appeared.
She didn't look like a good person at all, and the problem was that I was being held in her arms. She was on the left, and there was another woman on the right, but her face was blurry; I could only tell she was a woman by her figure.
This gave Koizumi Akako a little bit of expectation, not much, but just a tiny bit.
She had planned to go find this person, but after seeing this scene in the future, she decided not to go anymore and would just wait here for him to come and find her.
She wanted to see how he managed to win her over!
When a woman becomes curious about a man, that's the beginning of falling in love. Of course, this doesn't apply to every woman; there are always exceptions.
“From now on, you’ll be with me. The name Kudo doesn’t sound good at all. You don’t need to use my surname anymore. You can go back to your own surname, Fujimine Yukiko!” Su Xingbai looked at her with a smile, not worried at all that she would refuse the suggestion.
No matter how deep the feelings between two people are, they can't be as deep as the neighbor's hoe.
If you have a good hoe, you can dig up any corner of the wall.
Yukiko gave him a deep look, as if she had misheard.
It's important to know that in Japan, married women take their husbands' surnames, and at that time, special experts conducted population dynamic statistics.
According to statistics from 1995, a full 97.4% of the population took their husband's surname, and the figure for the approaching millennium was roughly the same.
Surprisingly, 97.0% of the population still uses their husband's surname. This is because, according to current civil law, men and women must use the same surname when registering their marriage.
This also makes it difficult for women, who are already in a weaker position, to retain their original surnames and are forced to take their husbands' surnames.
However, not all women take their husband's surname. It mainly depends on their social status and the social status of their original family, which directly determines their status in the new family.
