[Comprehensive] Stepsister's Occupation
Chapter 19
At this moment, I am like a child who has been caught playing a prank. The difference is that I am playing a prank, but I am not a child.
I stood up, trying to focus my eyes on the man's face.It's a pity that the light here is really not enough for me to see so detailed.
I thought, I need to listen to this person's voice more, maybe I can recall it after listening to it.
I patted the dust off my dress and asked, "Why don't you feel sorry for fish?"
"The most expensive platinum strain among these fish is only about [-] yen, and the sum of a pool of fish is not as expensive as half a glass of wine like yours." He answered indifferently: "Polkov rosé wine is the wine of Barse Winery tonight. Only a few people are qualified to taste the private collection brought by the chairman of the board."
At this point in his answer, I subconsciously glanced at his wine glass.No matter how dim the light is, no matter how it doesn't affect me, I can still see that the color of the wine in his goblet is the same as mine.
"Excuse me for being stupid," I swung my wine glass, "Then how much is the champagne you're talking about?"
“A bottle of this champagne costs 1314 pounds,” he continued, adding, “It’s especially rare in Japan. The market price for a 30-liter bottle is 7100 pounds. The sum of the two pools of pure platinum fish is almost equal.”
He read these strings of numbers extremely fluently.This is very much like someone who appeared in my memory.It seems that it is also linked to these thousands of people, money or not.In trying to unearth this paltry memory, I have completely ignored the point of this conversation, let alone the value of the seven thousand pounds of wine.
Just when I finally got that clue, a sudden "Master" drew the attention of the person next to me.
"Third young master, the master told you to go upstairs." The person who came forward said so.
The person in front of him responded: "I see." So he followed him back to the hall.
As soon as this person left, my wick, which had sprouted a clue, seemed to be pinched and extinguished suddenly, and there was no light at all.
After a while, the deacon came to me and said something similar: "Miss, the master wants you to go."
It turned out that the man was walking in front of me, but I followed faster, and we arrived at the door of the reception room at the same time.So, we looked up at each other and saw each other.
With a bright enough light, I could see the man's face clearly.In an instant, all the memories related to the person in front of him emerged.In the Kyoto Bookstore, the boy who said "1000 yen" and "remember to add a decimal point" made me feel that there was an extra layer of humiliation in my life.
He glanced at me, didn't care much, or maybe he didn't remember, after all, he only had a quick side, and remembered it for a few minutes.
The people in the reception room were opened, and a room full of rich and noble men were drinking tea, chatting and playing chess.It seems that there is still a place to discuss business, but the place has just been moved.
The stepfather was chatting with a middle-aged man with eyes in front of the French window, and Akashi was standing next to them and listening quietly.My father has been working hard to raise him as an heir.
"Father." I and the boy next to me shouted at the same time.
The three of them looked at us in unison.
My father smiled and said, "Here we are," and then introduced me, "This is my daughter, Aqiao." He turned his head and told me that the man in front of him was the chairman of the Feng family.I greeted him politely: "Uncle Feng."
The middle-aged man wearing glasses responded politely, "I really envy you, you have a pair of children." He smiled kindly, and introduced the boy next to him, "By the way, this is my son, Jing Ye."
The kind words that this uncle said made me shudder. No one knows that Akashi Seishi has only one son, Akashi Seijuro. "A pair of sons and daughters" is not realistic no matter how you hear it.
Besides, this young man named "Feng Jingye", the first time I saw this young master, I knew he was from a rich family.After listening to his figures of thousands and thousands, he was sure that his family came from a super rich background.I didn't expect my hunch to be really bad.
I don't know what the purpose of my father calling me up is, but as far as I can see, it is to let the children of both parties meet and then talk about each other's children.On this point, I admire my stepfather very much. He can say a lot of good things about me even though he has only met me for the second day.
Afterwards, my father said to Mr. Feng: "Let's talk about that matter again."
Mr. Feng nodded silently.
Immediately afterwards, my father told Akashi and I to go down first, they still had something to talk about.After the two of us came out, Feng Jingye also came out.I thought to myself, anyway, he wouldn't remember the cashier girl who worked part-time in the bookstore, and he wouldn't care about the champagne conversation just now.Even if we know each other's identities, it's good to treat them as acquaintances for the first time and not very familiar with each other.
But, to my surprise, this person is really dark-bellied.
Simply, the belly is black and white!
Akashi and I were walking side by side, and he smiled slightly as he passed me.I couldn't help looking at him, only to see the corners of his lips slightly curled up, and he said calmly: "I didn't expect that the young lady of Akashi's family also needs to work."
He easily dropped this sentence and left.
Hearing this, Akashi looked at me sideways, "Part-time job?"
I broke out in cold sweat, and hurriedly explained: "That, that was before—" Besides, no one knew me, and I didn't embarrass the Akashi family.
Except for some people at school who know my current identity and know that I used to work in a bookstore...
Akashi and I returned to Kyoto the day after the banquet.Father and mother will continue to stay in Tokyo because of the head office and business matters.
After returning to Kyoto, I occasionally went out for drinks with Tachibana Hotaru and Yajima-senpai, and went to Matsuoka’s house for meals when I was free, and got a lot of new works by Yukimura Toru.As for Mr. Hosokawa who just moved into Yuechengzhuang, I have never seen him.
The days are like flipping through a book, and the final exam is coming soon. I spend more and more time in the school library, and most of the time I don’t go home for dinner, so I also ask the driver not to pick up and drop off, but to do Get a bicycle rental card to rent public bicycles.
This weekend afternoon, I was still fighting bloody history in the library until after five o'clock, and the dinner problem was solved with the special butter bread and strawberry milk snapped up at the commissary.While gnawing on the bread, he indulged in the messy things of the Tokugawa family.After another hour of fighting, I also drank up the big bottle of strawberry milk. Those Tokugawa Ieyasu, Tokugawa Hidetada, Tokugawa [-], messy katakana, hiragana and Chinese characters were all over me. Flying around in front of my eyes gives me more headaches than the history of the French Revolution.
I think today's review is probably the limit, and the time for renting bicycles is coming soon, so let's pack up and go home.
It was past six o'clock, the sun was setting, and dusk was just right.The students who played basketball on the grass field on the campus had already gone home. Except for some seniors in the third grade who were still working hard in the classroom, there was almost no one in the school.
Walking to the school gate, I saw a familiar figure.
"Brother?" I trotted forward and saw clearly that this person was indeed Akashi.
The evening breeze stirred his hair, he was slightly startled, and asked me, "Have you not gone back yet?"
I nodded and said, "I just finished my review." Then I asked, "Why are you here?"
"To deal with something about your transfer."
It turned out to be the case.
Knowing about my relationship with the Akashi family, the principal here may think that it is a rare commodity that can promote the school in the future, so he refused to let me go through the transfer procedures, and said that he could give a lot of preferential conditions, such as free tuition. Ah, scholarship or something.I thought that I would be able to resolve this matter by entangled with the principal, but I didn't expect Akashi to handle it himself.
Akashi said: "It's just right, wait for the driver here, let's go back together."
I showed embarrassment: "But, I rented a public bicycle, and I have to ride back to return it quickly. Today's renting time is coming soon..."
Hearing this, he frowned slightly: "Is that so..."
What happened next, I didn't expect.He called the driver and told him not to come, and then said to me, "Let's go back together."
There are many kinds of intimate contact between people, one is casual and the other is inadvertent.There is inadvertence first, and then intentionality.
I'm his sister, he doesn't worry that it's normal for me to go home alone, I can't ride a bicycle and leave him alone, it's also normal, so one person rides another person on a bicycle... this , although it violates Japanese traffic rules, it is still considered normal for the adventurous spirit of puberty.
I sat uneasy on the back seat of the bicycle, and I didn't know where to put my hands, so I could only carefully put them on his waist.He asked me, are you ready?
I nodded slightly, only to realize that he couldn't see my nod, so I responded again: "Okay".I have high sensitivity and low sense of security. When he first drove me out, I even closed my eyes in fright and yelled out.
After a while, the bike gradually moved smoothly, only the breeze was blowing.I gently opened my eyes, and what was moving quickly in front of my eyes was the bluestone road in summer, and the standing green shirts on both sides of the road.The bicycle rang a bell and turned a corner skillfully.We crossed a stone slab bridge, the stream under the bridge was gurgling, and the red sunset light sparkled.
I didn't seem to know before that the scenery on the way home from school is so beautiful.
After a long while without words, he might feel bored, so he opened his mouth first: "You seem to be working hard recently, and you haven't been home for dinner for a long time."
I stood up, trying to focus my eyes on the man's face.It's a pity that the light here is really not enough for me to see so detailed.
I thought, I need to listen to this person's voice more, maybe I can recall it after listening to it.
