Chapter 387: Amamiya Quite Fits My Standards for Choosing a Spouse

The two people who came out of the room happened to see this whole spectacle, even if it was a bit melodramatic.

"Tsk tsk~ What a show indeed."

Ren Amamiya, for once, watched this unfolding drama with a mischievous streak.

"Amamiya-san, your image is ruined~ oh my."

"Once in a while, once in a while, I'm also someone who likes to eat melon and watch drama, especially when it doesn't involve a murder case."

Hayasaka's reminder was cheerfully tossed aside by Ren Amamiya.

He wasn't a person who cared much about his image either.

In the past, he didn't like to talk, but that was only because no one saw him talk. When he was alone at home, he could be quite chatty—except the ones he talked to were the TV and the computer.

Watching Amamiya happily enjoy the show, Ai Hayasaka shook her head slightly. Boys really were just boys.

Still, she felt that boys who occasionally laughed and joked were quite nice, as long as they weren't like Young Lady Kaguya, who liked to torment people.

Then Ai Hayasaka also turned to watch this show.

"A vengeful Young Master falls in love with the Princess he's avenging—such a plot is interesting no matter where you put it."

"Mm-hmm, indeed."

Ren Amamiya quite agreed with such statements; the sales of this kind of melodrama were simply too good.

"But if this were a TV drama, the ending wouldn't be quite appropriate."

"The male lead fell too fast, and the female lead's resolve left not even the slightest room for a turnaround."

Ai Hayasaka had to remind this Amamiya who was really treating it as a show.

"Amamiya-san, after all, Young Lady Shinomiya Kaguya isn't a caged canary like Young Lady Xia Jiang. She has a great deal of freedom, but she also has a certain bottom line."

"Family."

"Young Lady Xia Jiang, who lost both parents at a young age, has always been doted on by her grandfather, Shinomiya Gouzang, so grandfather Shinomiya Gouzang is Young Lady Xia Jiang's bottom line."

"Once that bottom line is touched, even a fiancé won't be spared. Let alone now that it's known this fiancé once harbored ill intentions."

Ren Amamiya nodded slightly.

Indeed, following this script and logic, anyone who learned that their fiancé was the engine behind their grandfather's death wouldn't accept that fiancé.

Publicly severing ties with this fiancé right here was the norm.

"So, Amamiya-san, who exactly is the person who wanted to kill Shinomiya Gouzang?"

Ai Hayasaka was actually quite interested in this question.

Although the answer to this question would be revealed tonight at the Wanshangjiu Society, who among the melon-eaters wouldn't want to know sooner?

"In the Shinomiya family, besides Wu Yan and Young Lady Shinomiya who are of age, there's actually one more person."

One more person?

Upon getting the hint, Ai Hayasaka immediately searched her mind for the members of the Shinomiya family, and quickly locked onto one person's name.

Shinomiya Ichiro.

"A bit of a gloomy personality, doesn't like to talk, hair covering half his face... he's basically the exact image of Amamiya-san from a month ago."

As the one being roasted, Ren Amamiya actually quite agreed with this assessment.

"I was probably in that state back then, but my hair wasn't as long as his."

"Also, I don't have such good conditions as him, and I definitely wouldn't express love for my own cousin."

"Where did he ever like his cousin? He was simply lusting after his cousin's body—shameless!"

Listening to Amamiya's judgment of Shinomiya Ichiro, Ai Hayasaka inexplicably looked at Amamiya.

"Amamiya-san, you and he overlap heavily, so aren't you also..."

That one sentence left Ren Amamiya dead silent.

"... Wait, I don't have a cousin."

"Then what if the targets were Young Lady Kaguya, Young Lady Suzuki, and Young Lady Fujiwara?"

"Slap!"

Without hesitation, Ren Amamiya raised his hand and gave himself a slap. The force wasn't great, but it was refreshing and awakening.

"Fine, I'm pretty shameless too."

Imagining Kaguya Sigong, Sonoko Suzuki, and Chika Fujiwara in his mind—even a saint would have ripples stirred up, let alone Ren Amamiya, who was no saint.

To say he didn't lust would be absolutely unrealistic.

He wasn't one of those great figures who had already cut away the root of worldly desires; he didn't want his body to be missing anything.

"Eh~ Doesn't that mean Amamiya also lusts after my body?"

A voice that suddenly cut in made the talking Ren Amamiya and Ai Hayasaka both freeze. They turned their heads to see Chika Fujiwara, her pretty face slightly flushed, covering her mouth in shock at what she'd just heard.

0 requesting flowers

Ren Amamiya looked at the blushing Fujiwara; he hadn't expected this person to appear beside them so suddenly.

"Fujiwara, since when have you been listening?"

Ren Amamiya voiced a soul-level question.

"Hehe~"

Chika Fujiwara smiled sweetly with a pink face.

"Since I saw you and Xiao Ai whispering to each other."

She heard most of it.

Ren Amamiya closed his eyes and covered his face with his hand.

"It's fine, it's perfectly normal to hear something like that."

Seeing Amamiya covering his face, Chika Fujiwara thought she had upset him and hurriedly explained.

"I also often hear people saying behind my back that they crave Sister's body."

Fujiwara Toyomi?

That hot girl who likes wearing crop tops?

There are definitely quite a few who like that type of girl, but I suppose they all just crave her body.

Ren Amamiya couldn't help but complain inwardly.

Though he himself wasn't any better, of course.

Looking at the face and the figure counts as his standard too; he has no grounds to criticize others.
