Chapter 191

~7 min read 1,353 words

"Where is the trouble."

The quiet room in Hayasaka's mouth is really very quiet; this is a meeting room, with a table, tea, and a large bed.

The big door outside the room is specially made, and the sound insulation effect is very good.

What this is used for is too obvious.

Ren Amamiya, who is in this room, looks up helplessly.

"Is this room something that can be used now?"

"Hayasaka, did you prepare this room really to let Sigong faint?"

Ren Amamiya, whose endurance is a bit stronger now, won't be so exaggerated as to faint, but he will also be embarrassed and unable to speak.

Fortunately, it is just a room for conversation now.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

After the door was knocked, it was opened quickly.

"Please come in."

What caught his eye was Ai Hayasaka, and following behind her was that Natsue Hatamoto.

A slightly cool dress, a blue style like the sea, it doesn't look very conspicuous, but Ren Amamiya, with sharp eyes, determined that this should be a custom-made one.

"May I ask, what is this about talking to me?"

Natsue Hatamoto, who was called over alone, looked a bit confused and helpless, especially after seeing the bed in the room.

Ren Amamiya noticed Natsue Hatamoto's gaze, and he waved his hand casually.

"Hayasaka, don't go out, and avoid this Miss Hatamoto thinking I want to do something bad to her."

"Excuse me. Mr. Amamiya, in fact, it is indeed so."

"That's not it!"

Just this sentence, Natsue Hatamoto's weak and helpless temperament was highlighted, which made Ren Amamiya look at Ai Hayasaka, who had no guilt, with a headache.

Ren Amamiya looked at Natsue Hatamoto, who was already carrying twelve thousand points of vigilance, with a headache.

The matter was already complicated enough, but this person made the matter so tense.

"Miss Hatamoto, please sit."

"Without joking, I don't know if you will believe the content I want to talk to you about this time."

This sentence aroused Natsue Hatamoto's curiosity.

Don't know if she will believe it?

Driven by curiosity, she couldn't help but ask curiously:

"May I ask, what on earth is the matter?"

Ren Amamiya took a deep look at Natsue Hatamoto, and then went straight to the theme.

"It's about the fact that your grandfather has already embarked on the script of Death."

"Grandfather!?"

Natsue Hatamoto's face changed; she froze, and now she was worried about the whole person.

But besides worrying, she was also more vigilant about the boy in front of her, and it was no longer just on the surface.

"Wait! Why do you know that grandfather ran into trouble!?"

Ren Amamiya also knew it would become like this.

"I naturally knew about your grandfather's matter through some methods."

Then he pointed to Ai Hayasaka behind her.

"The standard maid behind you, she herself is also a top young lady, and her status is much higher than yours."

"Besides, this ship is surnamed Sigong; if it weren't investigated clearly, would they let your group board the ship easily?"

Such an explanation made Natsue Hatamoto a bit convinced.

It's not because of anything else, just because grandfather told her that Sigong symbolizes wealth and power, and Sigong doesn't need to take action against the Hatamoto clan; they are not at the same level.

As for the fact that their information has been investigated clearly, Natsue Hatamoto can also understand.

She also doesn't think Sigong would accept their boarding without investigation.

After calming her emotions, Mao Li Xia Jiang looked again at the young man before her.

"Mr., what exactly did you mean by those words just now?"

"Ren Amamiya. Just call me Amamiya."

Not knowing his name wouldn't be appropriate, so Ren Amamiya didn't hesitate to state his name.

"As for the meaning of those words, it's actually quite obvious. It means exactly what it says."

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Mao Li Xia Jiang became even more anxious.

"Please explain in detail."

"Miss Mao Li Xia Jiang, are you aware of the current situation of the Mao Li family?"

Suddenly asked this question, Mao Li Xia Jiang was slightly stunned, but still nodded slightly.

"I know. Grandfather has spoken to me about the Mao Li family's affairs before. The current Mao Li family has reached a dead end, and Grandfather has been working hard to find a way to turn things around because of this."

"Recently, Grandfather has been in a very good mood, and I've heard him mention that he has already found a way to reverse the Mao Li family's decline."

Ren Amamiya nodded slightly. It seemed this Miss Mao Li had taken to heart the logic he had made her understand at the beginning of their conversation.

"Indeed, your Mao Li family has found a way to break the deadlock, from the mouth of an adopted son of the Gao Shan Conglomerate."

Speaking of the Gao Shan Conglomerate, if it weren't for the Mao Li family today, Ren Amamiya would have already forgotten about this sunset family.

He had heard about it back at the wedding of Xiao Lan and Yuan Zi's elementary school teacher.

"For the sake of this method that can quickly increase liquid assets, your Mao Li clan has been trying to recall funds recently."

"Many unnecessary things, and even things very important to your family, have already been sold off."

"If that old gentleman continues to operate this way, I believe your Mao Li family truly has the ability to reverse the decline."

"But, the only condition is that the old gentleman must still be alive before he can complete this series of operations."

Mao Li Xia Jiang's heart tightened. As expected, this issue was still linked to her grandfather's safety.

Having already lost her parents, she was unwilling to accept the departure of any more relatives, especially her grandfather, whom she regarded as her only family in this world, facing a life-threatening situation.

"Could it be that someone is trying to harm Grandfather because of this?"

Ren Amamiya waved his hand.

"Not necessarily. The old gentleman's confidentiality work is quite good, and at the same time, it's fortunate that the people in your family aren't actually very shrewd; they haven't noticed the recent situation of the Mao Li family."

"The problem lies in your marriage."

"My marriage... could it be Xiao Wu?"

Mao Li Xia Jiang's expression changed. She wouldn't lay a hand on Grandfather, so it must be Xiao Wu?

Ren Amamiya did not respond directly, but looked at Hayasaka.

Ai Hayasaka bowed slightly.

"Miss Mao Li, according to our investigation, your fiancé's father was named Cai Cheng Yongfu."

"Cai Cheng?"

Hearing this surname, Mao Li Xia Jiang frowned deeply. She always felt she had heard this surname somewhere before.

It seemed to be from Grandfather's mouth, but how did Grandfather mention this surname back then?

Ai Hayasaka didn't expect this young lady to remember; after all, that was a long time ago.

"Cai Cheng Yongfu, once the owner of a company, was heavily in debt due to poor management, and eventually committed suicide because he couldn't bear the burden."

"His son's name is Cai Cheng Wuyan."

"A few years ago, he made changes to his household registration and changed his name to Zhongyuan Wu."

The moment the name Zhongyuan Wu appeared, Mao Li Xia Jiang fell into a daze.

Then she slowly lowered her head.

"So that's how it is..."

Mao Li Xia Jiang was like a deflated balloon. Knowing the truth, she suddenly understood why Grandfather would mention a person named Cai Cheng Yongfu. It turned out this was all to warn her why Xiao Wu was constantly pursuing her.

Grandfather had long known Xiao Wu's true identity.

It was only because of her that Grandfather had never explained it directly, and even allowed her to get engaged to Xiao Wu.

Because Grandfather knew that once she knew some things, she would definitely choose to reject Xiao Wu's proposal.
