Chapter 306

Because they came from a wealthy conglomerate, the Suzuki family could be described as having a distinguished family background, so Tomoko Suzuki had always been strict with her children.

But unfortunately, of the two daughters she gave birth to, the eldest daughter, Ayako Suzuki, although successful in her studies, had a timid personality and was truly unsuitable to be the heir to the Suzuki conglomerate.

The second daughter, Sonoko Suzuki... there was even less need to talk about her. Because Ayako Suzuki had become somewhat timid under her high-pressure education,

so when educating Sonoko Suzuki, Tomoko Suzuki mostly adopted a laissez-faire approach.

And the final result of doing this also led to Sonoko Suzuki being more like a wild child compared to a wealthy heiress; not only was she incompetent in both literature and martial arts, but she was also quite rebellious and often dared to contradict her.

Simply put, as the eldest daughter, under Tomoko Suzuki's education, Ayako Suzuki had achieved some results, but they were not ideal.

And as for the second daughter, Sonoko Suzuki, in Tomoko Suzuki's view, she was purely a "failed practice run." Tomoko had even given up on her youngest daughter now; in short, as long as her daughter lived happily, that was enough.

When Shengzai, as the only male descendant of the Suzuki family, was born into the Suzuki family, Tomoko Suzuki was undoubtedly excited and happy.

But amidst the joy, recalling her parenting experience, Tomoko was very worried that she would raise her youngest son to be a failure as well.

However, this anxious feeling lasted until Shengzai could speak and walk; Tomoko Suzuki's original worried emotions were quickly replaced by pride.

When Shengzai was very young, he showed wisdom and talent far beyond ordinary people.

Not only was he not naughty and troublesome like other children, but he was also extremely sensible and eager to learn.

For other children, being able to write their own names at the age of three was already considered quite remarkable.

But what about their own child, Shengzai? At the age of three, with his astonishing learning ability, he had learned most of the characters and even understood elementary school-level arithmetic.

And when she realized that her child might be a so-called "genius," Tomoko Suzuki was overjoyed and decided to properly cultivate her son into a qualified heir to the conglomerate.

But only a year later, Tomoko Suzuki was dumbfounded, because her son had mastered all the business skills and concepts she knew in just one year, and he even took the initiative to express that he wanted to learn other skills.

Her son was a genius and very eager to learn; this was a good thing. And their Suzuki conglomerate was not short of money, so the best private tutors were arranged immediately.

And so, years passed, and Shengzai's private tutors changed one after another. Honestly, Tomoko Suzuki herself didn't even know how much her own child knew now.

It was the Suzuki couple who decided that Shengzai would attend the first grade at Teitan Elementary School.

Because although they knew their son was a genius, and not even an ordinary genius, they didn't want their son to be too dazzling.

Their family was already a super-large conglomerate ranked at the top of the country. If even the family heir were this excellent, it would inevitably invite jealousy and even bring about some unnecessary trouble.

"But Mother, I actually do practice martial arts. If I really encounter bad guys..."

"If you encounter bad guys, you'll be kidnapped directly! Even if you have the skills of a karate black belt, so what?

You are just a seven-year-old child. Do you really think that a seven-year-old child can defeat those adults after learning a few flashy moves? This isn't filming a movie.

You have been obedient and sensible since you were small; you must not be like your sister Sonoko and become a rebellious girl."

Hearing Tomoko Suzuki's words, Shengzai really wanted to smash the stone pillar next to him with one punch to prove his strength, but thinking that he was only a seven-year-old child now, if he really did that, it would be somewhat shocking.

In terms of learning ability, it could be explained as being a "genius," but a seven-year-old child smashing a stone pillar that two people could wrap their arms around with one punch was simply a freak.

So, ultimately forced by helplessness, Shengzai could only choose to compromise and think of other ways later.

The virtual reality game device developed by the Sindora Company—"Cocoon"—held its presentation at a five-star hotel on the weekend.

And because of the requests from Shengzai and Sonoko, Ran Mouri was also able to bring the few brats of the Detective Boys and Kogoro to attend this presentation.

"It's truly exhausting. Every time I attend this kind of occasion, my mother will bring us to meet all kinds of so-called upper-class socialites.

And those guys are not only self-righteous, but also truly hypocritical. I really don't like dealing with them."

Today, Tomoko Suzuki and Sonoko Suzuki attended in gorgeous evening gowns, because almost all the guests invited to participate in the presentation were upper-class people in the country.

So when coming to this kind of occasion, Tomoko Suzuki, as the representative of the Suzuki conglomerate, inevitably had to socialize with some people.

And naturally, as Tomoko Suzuki's son and daughter, Shengzai and Sonoko were inevitably brought along by Tomoko.

"Mom, you really are something. When dealing with those people, you can just bring Shengzai, who is the family heir. Why do you have to drag me along?"

After walking around for a while, Sonoko, feeling physically and mentally exhausted, complained to Ran in front of her while not forgetting to grumble to her mother beside her.

"If you were half as excellent as your younger brother, I would be too lazy to care about your affairs. Your sister Ayako has already become engaged to the third son of the Tomizawa conglomerate.

But Sonoko, if you keep maintaining this kind of personality, I'm even worried that you won't be able to get married in the future!"

That's right, Tomoko bringing her son to socialize everywhere was purely to show him off, and bringing Sonoko was entirely to scout for a future marriage partner.

Their Suzuki conglomerate was considered to have a distinguished family background; even the daughters in the family naturally could not marry into ordinary families.

Sonoko's looks were actually not bad, but her carefree personality might not be well-received in those wealthy families.

Of course, Sonoko was still young, but since everyone attending this presentation was an upper-class person, Tomoko wanted to plan ahead and scout for her daughter.

When she understood her mother's intention, Sonoko's expression turned ugly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And seeing that the situation was about to go wrong, Shengzai hurriedly spoke up: "I think Mother is wrong this time. I really like sister Sonoko's current personality.

Although she is carefree, she has a very sincere heart. Being straightforward is more precious than anything else.

If one day I also have to marry a wife, then compared to those high-and-mighty, arrogant heiresses, I would rather choose a girl like sister Sonoko who is sincere, straightforward, and kind as my wife."

When hearing Shengzai's rainbow-fart-like praise, the expression on Sonoko's face instantly turned from anger to joy, and she directly hugged Shengzai into her arms and said: "Our Shengzai is truly worthy of being the younger brother that sister likes and is most proud of!"
