Riko Inoue asked doubtfully. As she spoke, she pulled down her sunglasses slightly and carefully read the contents of the newspaper.
“Miss, you might not know. I believe you must have heard of the reason why Master Fujiwara fell out with his family all these years.”
Yoshimoto lowered his voice and reminded her.
“This… I think I heard some rumors before. It seems that his family was against his feelings for someone?”
Riko Inoue was a very proud person. All these years, she had never taken any woman seriously. In terms of background and looks, she was very confident.
“Yes, and the reason why Master Fujiwara didn’t fall in love with any woman before was precisely because of this woman. Her name is Dongfang Liuyun, and she’s the woman that Master Fujiwara had always been worried about. The reason why Master Fujiwara rushed back to City Z this time was because of her. She’s not someone to be trifled with.”
Yoshimoto had a rough understanding of Dongfang Liuyun’s situation.
“Dongfang Liuyun? Qi Lei? The second son of the Qi Family? I’ve heard father mention this person before. Since they’re already married, they don’t pose any threat to me.”
Riko Inoue was not stupid. Apart from relaxing, her main purpose for coming to City Z was to get close to Fujiwara. Her family was looking forward to her marriage with Fujiwara. Moreover, she was very satisfied with Fujiwara. A man like him had all the advantages that Riko Inoue hoped for.
She naturally looked forward to Fujiwara becoming her husband.
“If he could really let go of his feelings after so many years, we wouldn’t have such a stalemate today. Miss, Master Fujiwara might not be suitable for you. In my opinion, Master Lohr is more suitable for you.” Yoshimoto thought for a moment and suggested.
“You’re thinking too much. I won’t take Lohr’s character to heart. Go and look up this Dongfang Liuyun’s information. If she knows what’s good for her, we can become friends. If she still doesn’t know what’s good for her after getting married like this, then don’t blame me.”
Riko Inoue suddenly crumpled the newspaper in her hand into a ball. Her gaze was cold.
“Yes, Miss. Don’t worry!”
Yoshimoto noticed that Riko Inoue’s tone was not too happy, so he nodded knowingly.
“Also, call Father and ask about Qi Lei’s situation. I remember that the Qi family’s influence made grandfather and the others a little suspicious. Although they haven’t heard much about it over the years, it’s hard to guarantee that the family’s foundation isn’t there. It’s always good to be cautious.”
Riko Inoue thought about it for a moment, then gave the order as well. She tossed the newspaper in her hand away.
“Understood!”
…
Inside the Cloud Residence, Fujiwara woke up in a daze. When he woke up, his head was in a lot of pain. Fortunately, Matsuda gave him a few painkillers to take and he felt much better.
It was already afternoon. Fujiwara knew about what happened in the newspaper in the morning.
“Master, what do we need to do? I didn’t expect the paparazzi in City Z to be everywhere. They even took pictures like this. They’re clearly trying to use this one-sided news to gain attention. How despicable.”
Matsuda was also extremely disgusted by the media’s actions. He had dealt with similar matters many times over the years.
“Rumors stop at wise men. Just sit back and do nothing.”
Fujiwara was sitting on the sofa with a yellowed book in his hand. He was flipping through it without even lifting his eyelids. His entire face was cold and stern. That kind of aura always made people feel dejected and absent-minded. Sometimes, it was as if you could not feel his existence.
“But… Oh, right, Master, Mr. Fujiwara called just now. He said that Miss Inoue will arrive at City Z at one o’clock this afternoon and might come directly to our Cloud Residence. Mr. Fujiwara wants you to treat Miss Inoue well. Miss Inoue should have arrived at the airport by now. Should we send someone to pick her up?”
Without Fujiwara’s instructions, Matsuda naturally did not dare to make his own plans. He knew Fujiwara’s temper very well.
As expected, when this matter was brought up, Fujiwara’s cold face instantly seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. His hand immediately stopped. He raised his gaze and looked coldly at Matsuda.
Matsuda was immediately startled into breaking out in a layer of cold sweat.
“Tell her to scram back to Japan. This isn’t her territory, nor is it a place where she can come.”
With that, Fujiwara closed the book in his hand coldly and threw it on the low table in front of him, causing a large splash in the teacup.
“Master…”
Matsuda called out carefully, “It’s better not to disobey Mr. Fujiwara’s wishes. Let the butler arrange for the outer room to temporarily accommodate Miss Inoue. The Fujiwara family and the Inoue family are currently at a critical and sensitive time. We can’t let the Fujiwara family and the Inoue family get into a conflict over this matter and give others a chance. Please reconsider, Master!”
Fujiwara’s expression became even more unsightly.
“It wasn’t easy to ease the relationship between the two families. To mess up this matter at this time, Master, it’s a little… Moreover, I feel that Miss Inoue coming over at this time would actually be beneficial. At the very least, we don’t need to put too much pressure on Miss Dongfang’s side because of that negative news. After all, to the circle, Miss Inoue can be considered half of Master’s fiancée.”
To be honest, Matsuda did not have the heart to see Fujiwara suffering so much because of Dongfang Liuyun. Last night, when he was drunk, all he called out was Dongfang Liuyun’s name. Seeing Fujiwara like this, Matsuda felt extremely pained too, even heartbroken.
However, as subordinates, they could not help with these matters of love. EvenMaster Lan Xiu could not do anything about it, what more them?
This was probably the one thing his Master would hold on to stubbornly.
“Fiancée? When have I ever acknowledged her identity? That person wants to pull us into the Inoue family, that’s his own business. He can marry her himself. I don’t mind having another stepmother anyway.” Fujiwara laughed coldly. Matsuda seemed to be able to catch a hint of ruthlessness in that cold smile.
“Madam will be sad, Master…”
“It’s very easy for her to deal with a woman. How do you think those women by Father’s side disappeared?”
“But, this time it’s the precious pearl of the Inoue family. Madam, she…” Matsuda could not help but sigh.
“Mother understands the situation better than anyone else. The Fujiwara family is not under their control right now.” Fujiwara said coldly.
“But Madam is very concerned about the Fujiwara family’s future and about you, Master. Madam won’t approve of you doing this.”
“I don’t want to be like Father. In this life, I only want to be loyal to the person I love.”
