When Haruka Sakuraba was notified that someone wanted to see her, she was still in a state of confusion.

The police who took her were questioned, but no one told her who she was meeting.

So there was a lot of expectation and nervousness in my heart.

Will it be Chiyuki?

The only one who is willing to come to see me is Qianxue, right?

Haruka Sakuraba, who was full of hope, entered the interrogation room and saw Saionji Akino sitting quietly.

Sakuraba Haruka was stunned for a moment, the emotions brewing just now, the urge to cry out were all gone, and in their place was an extremely complex feeling.

Anger, regret, incomprehension, confusion.

"Aunt Haruka?" Saionji Akino heard the voice behind him, so he quickly turned to look at her.

The young man's eyes were full of concern and worry about himself?

Sakuraba Haruka didn't know if she was wrong, she was stunned for a moment.

"You've only got fifteen minutes."

"Thank you, officer." Saionji Akino thanked the police officer very politely, and then looked at Haruka Sakurabi, "Aunt Haruka, please take a seat." ”

Sakuraba Haruka looked at Saionji Akino helping her pull out the chair, very gentle, she couldn't help but ask, "Autumn... Akino-kun, why are you here...? ”

"Because Aunt Haruka... You... Hey..."

"Why, did such a stupid thing?" Although Saionji Akino's words were reproachful, it sounded like he was guilty in his tone?

Haruka Sakuraba's heart was full of reciprocal reluctance, and she turned her head to look at the handsome young man, looking at his clear gaze.

Don't... Don't...

"Aunt Haruka, sue for that matter, I just want to... I want to be a small punishment for everything you have done, in fact, as long as you find me... Have a good talk with me, and I will choose to withdraw the lawsuit. ”

When Sakuraba Haruka heard this, she instantly understood.

He is still longing, still pursuing that illusory family relationship, and he still wants to forgive himself?

This... Haruka Sakuraba begins to reflect on the past and his reactions.

No wonder even if he knew everything at that time, he didn't get angry, but smiled at himself...

Is that so?

Sakuraba Haruka immediately burst into tears, "But, Auntie has already made a mistake, so what can I do?" There's no going back..."

Saionji Akino: "Aunt Haruka, I can help you hire a lawyer and help you fight the lawsuit, so that you can get out of there as soon as possible, and reunite with Qianxue as soon as possible... You don't have to worry too much..."

"Autumn, Akino-kun..."Sakuraba Haruka grabbed Akino's arm in Saionji Temple with tears in her eyes, pursed her lips and said, "Actually, actually, I've always wanted to say I'm sorry to you... I'm really sorry to hurt you so easily... I'm really sorry..."

Sakuraba Haruka was at a dead end at this time, and suddenly saw a glimmer of hope, and this light of hope became brighter and brighter as the conversation continued, so that she was no longer in the same state of confusion.

Even such an ugly self can forgive Saionji Akino... Maybe you should really treat him with your most sincere feelings?

After all, who has been deceived many times and can choose to be tolerant?

This kid is really kind-hearted...

Saionji Akino saw Sakuraba Haruka's true feelings, and heard the system's announcement that the mission was completed.

He continued to smile and said, "It's okay, Aunt Haruka, I don't care about that anymore. ”

"How can you not care... Akino-kun... But I'm really doing something wrong now... Is there really a way to defend me and take me out? Haruka Sakuraba began to want to know more, to have more news that would reassure her.

"Yes, even if there isn't... I will definitely help you reduce your sentence, and then let you see Qianxue once a month, and I will do my best for this. ”

"Then wait until we get out and live together, right?"

"Good, good... I'm sorry Akino-kun, I used to be..."

"It's okay, Aunt Haruka."

In the next ten minutes, they talked a lot, talked a lot about the past, and talked about the misunderstanding caused by Sakuraba Haruka's operation, which made Sakuraba Chiyuki resent him for so long.

It wasn't until now that Saionji Akino knew exactly what this misunderstanding was.

However, it doesn't matter, no matter how obscene the misunderstanding is, it has nothing to do with him.

…

"Akino-kun, you're leaving, right?" Sakuraba Haruka finally let go of the strength that was holding the sleeve of Saionji Akino's coat, her eyes were red, and Chu Chu asked pitifully.

"Well, because the time is up, Aunt Haruka, next time I come to see you, it may be half a month later, and I will find a suitable lawyer to help you then."

Just as Sakuraba Haruka wanted to respond, the door of the interrogation room had been opened by the police officer, and the female police officer looked at the two of them coldly and said coldly: "It's time." ”

Haruka Sakuraba, who was about to be escorted back again, slowly got up, and she said sincerely to Saionji Akino, "That... Akino-kun, I'm really bothering you this time..."

"No trouble." Saionji Akino continued to look at her with that indifferent smile.

"Because, it was all a lie to you just now."

"Huh?"

Sakuraba Haruka's pupils contracted, and she looked at Saionji Akino in disbelief, she hadn't reacted yet.

"Aunt Haruka, you've been lying to me for so long, it's okay for me to lie to you once, right?"

Saionji Akino still kept smiling, "After all, I'm not completely temperless. ”

"Well, the lawyer you just mentioned..."

"No, there won't."

"You said we would live well together in the future..."

"Fake."

"You still say forgive me..."

"Do you think it's possible?" Saionji Akino's smile slowly converged, and his eyes became extremely indifferent.

Haruka Sakuraba thought back to all her inner activities just now, as well as the conversation she thought was warm just now, and she was even more annoyed and angry than Sakuraba Chiyuki who had discarded all her dignity.

"How dare you lie to me, you!!"

Saionji Akino: "Sakura-sana, are you sure you want to yell at me?" ”

Sakuraba Haruka was stunned.

Saionji Akino: "Am I your creditor, not your family, or do you want to stay in it for a few more years?" Or let Qianxue pay off your debts for a lifetime? ”

When Sakuraba Haruka heard these words, the anger just now was instantly suppressed by reason at this moment.

She looked at Saionji Akino's handsome face and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Yes, I'm sorry... Akino-kun, please don't worry about my attitude just now..."

"I'm sorry..."

Saionji Akino smiled and didn't speak again.

…

After Haruka Sakuraba walked out of the interrogation room and was re-entered into the cold cubicle, she curled herself up in the corner of the room, covered her face in pain, and began to cry in a low voice.

"How could it be, how could it be..."
