Things sometimes develop in unpredictable directions.

Now, the contract loss incident of the AKSI head office is like a bomb, setting up many obstacles in front of everyone, making it impossible for people to see the truth of the matter.

Whether it is outsiders or members of the relatives within the Akashi family, most of them are blinded by this fog, thinking that the position of the heir is about to change hands, and the day when collateral members will take power will eventually come.As everyone knows, the reason why the person who manipulated everything behind the scenes set up that trap was not to deal with the son of the current devil king, but to attack another person.From the perspective of their interests, finding a breakthrough and delivering a fatal blow is more likely to win than confronting the Akashi family head-on.

However, there is still a gap between the reality and the plan. Even if they seized the opportunity and cut off the way out, they neglected one of the most important things, that is—mantis catching cicadas, orioles behind, and those who are overconfident must be the biggest. loser.

The main house of the Akashi family at night is a dangerous battlefield.On the surface, although this small banquet only invites business friends who have a close relationship with the Akashi family, there are still many unfamiliar faces among them.Especially for those who rarely show up at social banquets, if they can appear in this dinner, they will definitely become a hot topic in the business circle again.

As soon as Akashi stepped into the main house, he felt a strange aura.

He felt that tonight's banquet venue seemed to be enveloped by a powerful aura, and the atmosphere became very weird.All the guests looked serious, even if they got together to chat with each other, they were not as relaxed as before.What the hell is going on here?That aura was neither from his father nor his uncle, who came here?

"Hey, cousin, I haven't seen you for many years. I really miss your serious frowning look."

Akashi wanted to find the strange aura that made him uneasy among the guests at the banquet. Unexpectedly, before he started to walk, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him. He turned around and looked back, and was startled by the figure that appeared in front of him on the spot one jump.

"Naoki? When did you return to China?"

"A week ago." Satisfied with the surprised expression on Akashi's face, Naoki in a black suit walked over and said with a smile: "Why, you were surprised to see me appear at your banquet? "

"I remember that before you went to university, you were forcibly sent to study in England by your uncle. Why did you come back early? Could it be..."

It's not that Akashi has the ability to predict, but because he knows his uncle's character and behavior well, there is only one reason for him to allow his cousin to come back from England, and that is the blind date.

"You guessed right, my stinky dad asked me to come back for a blind date." Naoki didn't hide it from Akashi, and told the reason for his return with a wry smile, "Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful the other party is, I still don't have any I feel that if you want to get married, it may be difficult."

"Your ambition will not allow this possibility to exist, and in the end you will still obey your uncle's order to get married."

Akashi has already seen through his cousin's mind. Naoki failed to fulfill his wish emotionally, so he will naturally turn his energy and attention to his career. Marriage is the best stepping stone, allowing him to sit on the president's position more securely.Therefore, he can be sure that even if Naoki has 1 unwillingness in his heart, he will sacrifice marriage for the sake of his career.

"Cousin, if Saya doesn't show up, you will have the same fate."

Unrequited love in high school has become Naoki's biggest regret.He obviously felt that he would not lose to his cousin, but fate arranged for Saya and his cousin to meet early. Not only did he lose the opportunity, but the fate was shallow, and this unrequited love was doomed to be fruitless.

"After all these years, you still haven't given up on her?"

"I will not give up on her." Facing Akashi's questioning, Naoki gave his answer honestly, "No matter who she marries in the future, my heart will not change. In case you fail Loosing her means that my opportunity is coming, I believe that as long as she gets along with me for a long time, she will definitely find that I am more suitable for her than you..."

"There will never be a day when we will be separated." Akashi clenched his hands into fists. He walked up to Naoki and warned him coldly, "Stop wishful thinking. She is mine. And don't even think about her."

"It's hard to say, cousin, instead of guarding against me, you should expand the scope of your defense. In tonight's banquet, there may be someone coveting Saya."

"Someone wants to go home crying, and I'd love to give them a ride."

Although the sudden incident at the head office is annoying, but when a rival appears, he has to stand aside. Akashi really wants to see who has the guts to touch his woman on the Akashi family's territory.

"Oh, it's so rare to see you two cousins ​​arguing here. I thought your relationship was very good."

Just as Akashi and Naoki were arguing, another male voice suddenly intervened. The two cousins ​​quickly turned to look at the source of the sound, and soon saw a young man walking towards them.

Who is he?

This is a common question for Naoki and Akashi. Anyway, the two have attended many social banquets with their respective fathers, and they have more or less impressions of old and new faces in the business world.Only the young man in front of them, they don't have any memory, let alone which banquet they met at, but why, that young man seemed to see an acquaintance, so warm to the two of them?

Before the questions in their hearts were answered, the two people who were accosted were silent and did not respond.

And the man who came to strike up a conversation was also keenly aware of the wariness of the two of them, so he put away the smile on his face, and tried to chat with the two of them with his usual social expressions.

"I'm the second son of the Ryuzaki family, Ryuzaki Nobuhiro. I'm very sorry for interrupting your conversation just now."

"Uh...it's okay, I don't know what you want from us?"

Naoki was a little surprised. No one thought that the Ryuzaki family, which had faded out of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, would actually send people to the banquet tonight. Does this mean that the former business overlord who has been silent for many years has the momentum to make a comeback?Now, the second son of Ryuzaki's family took the initiative to come over to make friends. Is this a fight, or just want to chat?Judging from the current situation, he had a hunch that nothing good would happen with the appearance of Nobuhiro Ryuzaki.

"I came to see Master Akashi. He and I met a few years ago." Xinguang shifted his gaze to Akashi next to Naoki, "However, it is very likely that he has forgotten things a lot and left that incident behind." Forget about it."

"No, I know who you are."

When he was accosted at the beginning, Akashi really couldn't remember where he met Ryuzaki Nobuhiro. It wasn't until he compared the other party's voice with the past in his memory that he really got the real answer.

The man in front of him was the mysterious man who had talked with him on the phone in high school.At that time, Saya had just experienced the kidnapping incident and was recuperating in the hospital. He answered her call on her behalf.Looking back now, Ryuzaki Nobuhiro's arrogant tone of speech has not changed a few years later, even if the words are customary social rhetoric, he still feels harsh.Tonight, he will run into someone from the Ghost Snake family at a banquet at his home. His luck is really too good.

"Six years ago, I was really offended. At that time, I was angry because of her affairs, and my tone of speech was a bit rushed. Please don't mind."

To attend a banquet on someone else's site, one must act according to the rules of the host's family. No matter how hot-tempered Xinguang is, he will behave according to the occasion.After all, the Ryuzaki family has to return to this business circle. Making trouble at the current chairman's house will only cause trouble for the Ryuzaki family. He is not stupid enough to listen to that old woman's words and do irreparable things .

"You came to me because of her?"

Akashi has not forgotten what Xinguang once said, saying that Saya's future is not up to him, and he is required to return Saya to the ghost snake family.Just kidding, it was impossible in high school, let alone now, no matter what the ghost snake family's purpose is, he will not give up Saya to others.

"To be precise, it was another person looking for you. He asked me to bring you a message, saying that there is a wonderful show waiting for you to watch in the back garden. Don't miss it."

Wonderful show?

After hearing Xinguang's words, Akashi immediately became suspicious, and did not leave in a hurry, but stayed where he was, and continued to ask: "It's rare to come to Akashi's house as a guest, why don't you explain your words directly? Precious time for both parties."

"Sorry, I just wanted to make my words clear, but that person has explained in advance, I can't do extra things." Looking at a busy figure in the hall, Xin Guang thought it was time to leave, but before leaving Before, he still did not forget to leave a reminder to Akashi, "By the way, that person also told you that Saya has something important to hide from you. If you want to know the truth, you must go to the back garden, otherwise you will regret it." .”

"I will go, he doesn't need to use Saya as bait anymore." Now that the other party has openly provoked, Akashi is no longer polite, he replied: "Please go back and tell him, some tricks are not as old as possible Use it, if you want to sow dissension, you must weigh your own weight first."

Xin Guang, who was about to leave, froze in place after hearing these words.After a long time, when he came back to his senses and found the power needed for his legs, he walked forward slowly with difficulty.

"Good luck, young master of the Akashi family, I hope you can survive later."

This is what Xinguang said to Akashi before returning to the hall.

Regarding this, Akashi didn't take it seriously, and didn't take those words to heart at all.In fact, when he received the information from Ryuzaki's family, he was already mentally prepared to face the possible situation one day.And outsiders' instigation is within the predictable range. Now, the other party always emphasizes that the incident in the back garden has something to do with Saya. He can't help but wonder if this incident tonight has something to do with his cousin.

"Cousin, are you really going?"

Naoki on the side also felt that something was wrong. Although in the territory of the Akashi family, the people of the Ryuzaki family would not be so stupid as to ask for trouble, but with that woman Kyoya Anri present, the situation would be different.When he was a child, he had experienced the troubles caused by that woman. If the incident tonight was really related to her, even if he wanted to help Sha Ye, his cousin would not agree. It seems that he can only use other Ways to intervene.

"Don't follow me."

Too many people will only cause trouble, Akashi intends to solve the trouble alone, so as not to cause other troubles tonight.As for what Ryuzaki Nobuhiro said, he would not be surprised. Everyone has their own secrets, and Saya is no exception. He believes that there must be some reason for her to hide it until now.

Is it an old topic, or a personal grudge, or an old lover's drama staged at eight o'clock?

Tonight's sideshow is about to start.
