Chapter 383: Repay Me with Your Faith

After calming her emotions, Xia Jiang of the Kasamoto family once again looked at the young man of not-so-great an age before her.

"Mr., what exactly did you mean by what you just said?"

"Ren Amamiya. Just call me Amamiya."

Not knowing his name would be improper, so Ren Amamiya generously offered his own name.

"As for the meaning of what I just said, it's actually very obvious — it's the literal meaning."

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

"Please explain in detail."

"Young Lady Xia Jiang, do you know the current situation of the Kasamoto family?"

Suddenly asked this question, Xia Jiang was briefly taken aback, but still gave a slight nod.

"I know. Grandfather told me about the Kasamoto family's affairs before. The Kasamoto family has already 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 very good spirits. I've also heard him say that he has already found a method to reverse the Kasamoto family's decline."

Ren Amamiya nodded slightly. It seemed this Young Lady of the Kasamoto family had taken it in — the reasoning made clear to her at the start of the conversation.

"Indeed, your Kasamoto family has found a way to break the deadlock — from the mouth of an adopted son of the Gao Shan financial conglomerate."

Speaking of the Gao Shan financial conglomerate, if it hadn't been for the Kasamoto family today, Ren has already forgotten about this family in its twilight years.

When he first heard about it, it was still at the wedding of elementary school teachers Ran and Sonoko.

"For this method that can rapidly increase liquid assets, your Kasamoto clan has recently been trying to find ways to recall funds."

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

"If you let that old gentleman continue to operate, I believe your Kasamoto family truly has the ability to reverse its decline."

"But the only condition is that the old gentleman can still be alive before completing this series of operations."

Xia Jiang's heart tightened. Sure enough, this issue was still tied to Grandfather's safety.

Having already lost her parents, she was unwilling to accept the departure of another relative — especially when the grandfather she regarded as her only family in this world faced a safety issue with his life.

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

Ren Amamiya waved his hand.

"Not to that extent. The old gentleman's confidentiality work has been done quite well. At the same time, it's fortunate that the people in your family are actually not very shrewd — none of them have noticed the Kasamoto family's recent situation."

"The problem lies with your marriage."

"My marriage… could it be Xiao Wu?"

Xia Jiang's expression changed. She wouldn't lay a hand on Grandfather, so then it was Xiao Wu?

Ren Amamiya did not give a direct response, but instead looked at Hayasaka.

Hayasaka Ai bowed slightly.

"Young Lady of the Kasamoto family, according to our investigation, your fiancé — his father's name is Cai Cheng Yongfu."

"Cai Cheng?"

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

It seemed to be from Grandfather's mouth, but how exactly had Grandfather mentioned this surname back then?

Hayasaka Ai did not expect this young lady to be able to recall it either — after all, this was something from quite a long time ago.

"Cai Cheng Yongfu, once the boss of a company. Because of poor management, he accumulated massive debts, and ultimately committed suicide because he could no longer bear the burden."

"His son's name is Cai Cheng Wu Yan."

"A few years ago, he made a change on the household registry and changed his name to Zhong Yuan Wu."

The moment the name Zhong Yuan Wu appeared, Xia Jiang fell into a daze.

Then she slowly lowered her head.

"So that's how it is…"

Xia Jiang was like a deflated balloon. Having learned the truth, she suddenly understood why Grandfather had mentioned a person named Cai Cheng Yongfu — it turned out this was all to remind her why Xiao Wu kept pursuing her.

Grandfather had long known Xiao Wu's true identity.

But because of her, Grandfather had never explained it directly, and had even allowed her and Xiao Wu to become engaged.

Because Grandfather knew that once she learned of certain things, she would surely choose to refuse Xiao Wu's proposal.
