No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy - Chapter 70

Unedited, please wait for an hour

“Ming Yue, how about we have dinner somewhere and go home?” Wan Yi Jun asked as soon as they walked out of the mart, pushing the shopping cart.

“Didn’t you say that you never eat dinner?” Ming Yue said when she saw Wan Yi Jun acting like a loyal boyfriend, Nah, a loving husband who took his wife out for dinner date.

She was a bit annoyed by the fact that he was taking their dropping honorifics act into something else.

“I haven’t eaten anything, and I barely have the energy to drive.” He replied in a tired tone. Well, it was true that he missed his lunch and was kept himself charged by a couple of coffee shots. He can work without eating anything, but wandering inside the mart has worn him out and made him hungry and weaker than before.

“Then, let’s go and eat.” Ming Yue agreed without arguing any further. Since she won’t be able to meet her brothers for a while, she herself cooked authentic Daisunese meals for Yojiro and Kousuke and ate with them before leaving the house. She wasn’t hungry, but she remembered when Wan Yi Jun said that he disliked eating alone and decided to have dinner with him.

“Wait here, I will go and get the car.” Wan Yi Jun suggested as he pulled his black jacket together to cope with the cold wind.

“I will come with you.”

“No, no. It’s too cold out there, I will go and get the car here.” He refused once again with a warm smile adorning his handsome face. When he noticed that Ming Yue wore a simple Tee shirt and skirt even in this weather, he didn’t feel like letting her walk all the way to the parking lot.

“Just wait here,” Wan Yi Jun said as he walked towards the parking lot, leaving Ming Yue behind.

“Hmm, okay then.” Ming Yue nodded her head in agreement and moved towards the waiting area in the mart where several women and children waited for their cars.

“Miss, your husband seems really nice…”

“No, ma’am, we are not married.”

“Why are you waiting then, men like him won’t find you anywhere. It is better to tie the knot.”

“That old woman, what’s she even saying? My Nechan is an engaged woman.”

“Why are you blaming her, look at Nechan, she could’ve denied it. But-”

“This is not going to end well.”

After having dinner together, Wan Yi Jun and Ming Yue returned to the Wisteria gardens before the night turned too dark.

However, this time when Ming Yue stepped inside the mansion, her heart was pounding hard as if she was running a marathon.

She is going to live with Wan Yi Jun, her archenemy from now on.

“Have you decided which room you would like to stay in?”

“I will take one of those rooms for maids.”

“Does it have any bed or furniture?”

“No. But there is a futon.”

“Take the guest room on the first floor.”

“Huh, I will stay on the ground floor itself. Since it is next to the kitchen, it would be easier for me.”

“Hmmm, as you wish then. Good night, Ming Yue.”

“Master, are you going to stay here only? What about your room on the first floor?”

“I’m too tired to shift to another room. I will just sleep here today and leave tomorrow.”

“Yes, good night, master.”

Ming Yue went to one of the empty rooms for maids.

Her mind was still spiralling even at the thought of staying at this place. However, more than anything else, her mind was agitated by the fact that she would live under the same roof as Wan Yi Jun.

She placed the suitcase in one of the corners and picked up her phone,

Before leaving the rooftop house, she has contacted her big brother and Tora to make sure that they still don’t know about her plan.

However, she still needs to inform Yojiro and let them know that she reached wisteria gardens safely.

After all, she had given a word that she would call them every day.

“Hmm…I’m safely returned home. He was tired, so he went to bed early. Did you eat something? Hmm, Where is Kousuke? Nechan is safe here, don’t worry too much and go to bed…Hmm, I will call you tomorrow. Bye, bye.”

She ended the phone conversation with a smile on her face.

She left the

“Hmm. My father was a third-generation immigrant in Novaria and met my mother there. Yi Jun’s father and my parents were classmates.”

“Yi Jun.”

“So you grew up with them?”

“Hmm. But how did you end up in Daisun, and where are your parents?”

“My parents are dead and practically speaking, the only relative I got is Hiro Chan.”

“Big brother took you home when you are parents passed away?”

“No. I came to Daisun on my own, started looking for the Terada family and ran into Tora in Akiota. He is the one who brought me home.”

“Does captain Wan knows that you are his childhood friend?”

“No. I know that Yi Jun is investigating Daisunese mafia clans and especially the White tiger. So I should stay.”

“Ne Chan, do you really have to stay with him? It’s too dangerous.” Kousuke repeated his famous line when he saw Ming Yue packing her bags. Since the renovations were over, she presented her plan to move to Wisteria gardens, scaring her brothers all at once.

“We can still track the police team even if we stay here. There is no need for you to stay with that police officer.” Kousuke added as a matter of fact. No matter how hard he tried to understand their situations and the necessity to associate with the police force, he couldn’t agree with Ming Yue’s decision.

“Yes, we can. But I need to go, Kousuke.” Ming Yue said as she picked up her clothes from the shelves and placed them inside her suitcase.

“Why?” It was Yojiro who asked the question unlike the usual. He was someone who never raised his voice against his beloved Nechan, but this time he was ready to take Kousuke’s side no matter what happened.

“Why do you have to stay with him?” He pressed on the issue while sitting on Ming Yue’s bed, like a person who was in deep thought.

“Yaa…It’s because of you two…” Ming Yue, who got annoyed by their questions pointed at them and said in a frustrated voice. She knew that moving into wisteria gardens would obviously raise questions from her brothers but didn’t expect them to be bothersome.

“Hmm. My father was a third-generation immigrant in Novaria and met my mother there. Yi Jun’s father and my parents were classmates.”

“Yi Jun.”

“So you grew up with them?”

“Hmm. But how did you end up in Daisun, and where are your parents?”

“My parents are dead and practically speaking, the only relative I got is Hiro Chan.”

“Big brother took you home when you are parents passed away?”

“No. I came to Daisun on my own, started looking for the Terada family and ran into Tora in Akiota. He is the one who brought me home.”

“Does captain Wan knows that you are his childhood friend?”

“No. I know that Yi Jun is investigating Daisunese mafia clans and especially the White tiger. So I should stay.”

“If you haven’t got yourself into that murder, we wouldn’t have to chase him in the first place.”

“If you are doing this for us. Then there is no need, Nechan. We have talked to that investigative officer and cleared our side of the story.”

“Yes, that officer even promised that he will keep our names secret.” Kousuke seconded his brother’s claims and tried to stop Ming Yue from getting herself into trouble.

“To be very honest, Nechan…I think you are too much invested in this case.” Yojiro pointed out while his eyes glinted in doubt.

“Just because you have spoken to that police officer, that doesn’t mean that they proclaimed you innocent. We need to make sure that-” All of a sudden, Ming Yue’s words were interrupted by Yojiro, who picked up her phone that kept on the bed as if it was a natural thing to do.

“Ne Chan, please.” Yojiro let out a small scoff as he kept his eyes glued to the phone that Wan Yi Jun had given to his sister. He was getting a bit dubious about the sudden friendship that started between Ming Yue and Wan Yi Jun that resulted in the full freedom to visit the Wisteria gardens anytime.

“I know that you care about us, but the reason why you are getting associated with that officer is something else.”

The moment Ming Yue heard those words, her bicoloured eyes shook a bit in shock. She never thought that Yojiro would pick up the hints very soon, unlike Kousuke.

“There is nothing else.” Ming Yue flatly refuted his claims and hid her face away from him.

“Nechan, don’t lie to us. We got solid proofs.”

“What proofs?” Ming Yue’s shapely eyebrows knitted together in doubt and she unknowingly expressed a part of her vulnerable side to her quick-witted brother.

“There is nothing.” Ming Yue once again denied his claims and almost threw her clothes into the suit before zipping it up.

“If it is nothing, then why your photo is on that officer’s phone?” Yojiro who was scrolling on the phone raised his hand and showed the screen to Ming Yue and Kousuke, who was left in puzzlement.

“Which photo?” Kousuke immediately lunged forward to grab the phone before Ming Yue could make a move.

It was the picture of a girl with bi-coloured eyes and silver hair, holding a husky puppy.

“This is-” Kousuke whose eyes widened in the similarity the girl shared with his sister, looked alternatively at the photo and Ming Yue as if he was comparing them.

“That’s not-”

“Don’t say that’s not you. It’s clearly you.” Kousuke corrected her without any hesitations. “And why is your photo is on that captain’s phone?”

Watching their actions, Ming Yue lost her cool and gritted in frustration.

“Yaa…not everyone with a weird pair of eyes is me.” She made a vague effort to deny the truth. But still, the men in the room was not ready to believe her as they argued that the girl in the photograph was Ming Yue with no doubt.

“Yes. But you are the only person with heterochromia and silver hair that we know, and Nechan, didn’t you used to say that bicoloured eyes are extremely rare?” Yojiro asked with a faint smirk adorning his face. The moment he noticed the aggravated look on Ming Yue, he was sure that her sister was trying to hide something from them.

“We thought you trusted us,” Kousuke added hot oil into the pyre and engraved Ming Yue once again, “But you…you…cheated us-”

“Kousuke, don’t play your emotional blackmailing card on me..” Ming Yue who regained her bearings, quickly warned her young brother, who was trying to take advantage of her situation and snatched the phone from him.
