Chapter 382

~4 min read 603 words

"What are you talking about?"

The room Hayasaka described as quiet was indeed very quiet; it was a reception hall with a table, tea, and a large bed.

The main door outside the room was specially made, with excellent soundproofing.

Its purpose was far too obvious.

Ren Amamiya, standing in this room, helplessly tilted his head back.

"Is this room really something we can use right now?"

"Hayasaka, did you prepare this room to make Kaguya Sigong faint?"

Ren Amamiya, whose tolerance had grown stronger, would not faint so dramatically, but he would still be too embarrassed to speak.

Fortunately, this was merely a room for conversation.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

After the door was knocked on, it was opened very quickly.

"Please come in."

The first thing visible was Hayasaka Ai, and behind her followed that person, Nishimoto Xia Jiang.

She wore a slightly revealing dress, a blue style like the sea; it did not look particularly conspicuous, but Ren Amamiya, with his sharp eyes, was certain it must be custom-made.

"May I ask, what is it you wish to tell me?"

Nishimoto Xia Jiang, called over alone, looked somewhat bewildered and also somewhat at a loss, especially after seeing the bed in the room.

Ren Amamiya noticed Nishimoto Xia Jiang's gaze and casually waved his hand.

"Hayasaka, do not leave; this also prevents this Miss Nishimoto from thinking I intend to do anything bad to her."

"My apologies. Classmate Ren, in fact, that is indeed the case."

"That is not true at all!"

With just that one sentence, Nishimoto Xia Jiang's weak and helpless aura was highlighted, causing Ren Amamiya to look at Hayasaka Ai, who felt no guilt, with a headache.

Ren Amamiya looked with a headache at Nishimoto Xia Jiang, who was already carrying twelve thousand percent of wariness.

The matter itself was already complicated enough, yet this person had made the situation so tense.

"Miss Nishimoto, please sit."

"Speaking without joking, I do not know if you will believe the content of this discussion."

This statement aroused Nishimoto Xia Jiang's curiosity.

Would she believe it or not?

Driven by curiosity, she could not help but ask curiously:

"May I ask, what exactly is the matter?"

Ren Amamiya looked deeply at Nishimoto Xia Jiang, then immediately went straight to the point.

"It concerns the fact that your grandfather has already stepped onto the script of the Death God."

"Grandfather!?"

Nishimoto Xia Jiang's expression changed; her entire body froze, and now her whole being became worried.

Yet, amidst the worry, she became even more wary of the young man before her, to the point where it was no longer merely superficial.

"Wait! How do you know Grandfather has encountered trouble!?"

Ren Amamiya also knew it would turn out this way.

"Of course, I learned about your grandfather's situation through certain methods."

He then pointed to Hayasaka Ai behind her.

"The standard maid behind you is herself a top-tier Young Lady, with a status far higher than yours."

"Furthermore, this ship bears the Sigong name; if we had not investigated clearly, would you have been allowed to board so easily?"

Such an explanation did make Nishimoto Xia Jiang somewhat convinced.

It was not for any other reason; Grandfather had told her that Sigong symbolizes wealth and power, and Sigong had no need to act against the Nishimoto clan, as they were not on the same level.

As for the claim that their information had already been investigated clearly, Nishimoto Xia Jiang could understand that.

She did not believe Sigong would accept their boarding without an investigation.
