Chapter 038: Conspiracy Theories
In the evening, the Sakai Sisters returned to their home from outside. On the way back to the Taito district, Sakai Meiling hadn’t stopped much, chattering like a flower magpie.
After she put down her things, she immediately came over to Kishimoto Masayoshi’s side and said, “Brother Masayoshi, not only did I meet Fujiwara Norichika in person today and ask for an autograph, but I also took a picture with her.”
“It’s good that you’re happy.” Kishimoto Masayoshi didn’t feel any surprise about all this and said.
“Uniqlo’s clothing, it’s still quite good. My sister and I were also given quite a few things, and all of them were brought back.” Sakai Mirei’s excitement didn’t ebb said.
“Since it’s a nice gesture from someone else, then you should take it well!” Masayoshi Kishimoto said as he saw her excitement and realized that this was the first time in her life that she had been invited to participate in this kind of opening ceremony business event.
Sakai Rie approached to the front of him and said bluntly, “Come with me for a moment, I have something to say to you.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto didn’t express a refusal and followed the other into her bedroom. Sakai Rie waited until he was inside before she closed the bedroom door behind her.
She was not as completely overwhelmed by the pomp and circumstance of what she had seen today as her own sister had been, “How did you get that VIP invitation?”
“Yanai Masashi gave it to me. Could it be that you suspect that I went and stole it from someone else?” Masayoshi Kishimoto laughed a little and said.
Rie Sakai had personally experienced the entire event of today’s opening of Uniqlo’s flagship store in Harajuku, Shibuya-ku, and had also seen from the people who had been invited to attend that those who were able to enter this one occasion would not be ordinary people.
Even if they weren’t rich and powerful, they were people who had a reputation in society. An ordinary person would definitely not be invited. Thus, a huge question mark arose in her mind.
In Rie Sakai’s mind, Masayoshi Kishimoto was a fat otaku. How could he just be able to get that one VIP invitation?
“You’re talking about Yanai Masayoshi, the owner of that one Uniqlo, right? What is your relationship with him?” Rie Sakai interrogated.
Masayoshi Kishimoto laughed impishly, “Comradeship. I’m a 1, and he’s an O. So, you don’t have to lock your bedroom door anymore. I’m not interested in you.”
“Don’t be poor, tell me a truth.” Sakai Rie said rather seriously above her expression.
Masayoshi Kishimoto put away the smile on his face and thought for a moment about his two encounters with Masayoshi Yanai on top of the airplane, “It’s kind of a casual relationship.”
“Who are you kidding? If you guys were really in this kind of relationship as you said, would someone else give you a VIP invitation? Do you really think I’m stupid?” Sakai Rie simply didn’t believe it and said.
“That would be a relationship at first sight.” Masayoshi Kishimoto didn’t even take this as a matter of fact and casually changed his words.
“What exactly is your relationship?” Sakai Rie frowned and said with some urgency.
“Friendship, that’s always fine!” Masayoshi Kishimoto said, somewhat confused as to what kind of medicine she was selling.
“When did you two meet?” Sakai Rie said, getting to the bottom of the matter.
Kishimoto Masayoshi dropped his head and crossed his arms in front of his chest, unable to understand the mind of the woman in front of him, “Yanai Masayoshi, you should have seen him today.
He is a man, not a woman. He is also an old man. You don’t really think that I have that kind of male-male love relationship with him, do you?”
Sakai Rie then realized that she had asked too much. She had just received a not-so-small favor from someone else for no reason, and her heart was always a little bit overjoyed.
When she hadn’t seen today’s scene, she had thought of it as simple, just thinking of the opening of those small clothing stores she had attended in the past, where some people came to congratulate her, drink champagne, eat, and talk and laugh.
Otherwise, there would be some live performances. She had once been paid to play the Western flute at such an opening ceremony in order to make money.
Rie Sakai’s heart was as clear as a mirror, and it didn’t matter if one of the people who came might not really know what they were doing. It didn’t matter if one of them didn’t really know how to play the flute, because that’s what they wanted. As for her, all she wanted was money.
Today, Sakai Rie never thought that not only the scene is grand, but also a big bag full of return. Not to mention that Sakai Meiling was overjoyed, even she herself was a first.
In her opinion, this was the upper class. This upper class and Masayoshi Kishimoto’s lower class were completely at odds.
How did the two intersect? For this reason, she was puzzled, so after returning home, she called him in at the first opportunity to ask for clarification.
“You really didn’t lie to me?” Sakai Rie said as she kept her skeptical gaze fixed on his face.
“What good would it do me if I lied to you? Is it hard to believe that you’re worried that you’ll be sold by me? Or are you worried that I will push you inside the fire pit?”
Masayoshi Kishimoto didn’t think that after being a good person for a time, he was being given a hundred suspicions. He currently was crying and laughing for a moment and said.
“Today, a man not only asked for my name, but also wanted my phone number.” Sakai Rie said truthfully.
“That means you’re attractive!” Masayoshi Kishimoto didn’t get jealous about it and said.
“Have you been dissatisfied with the marriage contract between us for a long time? And you were too embarrassed to say it explicitly, so you came up with this method to induce me to make a mistake.
At that time, I will then take the initiative to propose to break off the marriage contract between us, which will not only fulfill you, but also allow you to get a large amount of financial compensation.
In the end, I also fell a watery woman, reputation sweeping the ground. I didn’t expect you to look honest and thick, but your belly is full of darkness and bad intentions to fix me.” Sakai Rie said with vigor.
Masayoshi Kishimoto rested his left palm on top of his forehead and said, “Your imagination is really too rich. Even conspiracy theories have come out.
It’s really a waste of your talent if you don’t go on to become a novelist. I didn’t expect ah! I didn’t expect that my image in your mind is just so bad.”
“See! I must have gotten it right.” Sakai Rie’s right index finger was pointing at him and said.
Masayoshi Kishimoto sidestepped in the direction of the bedroom door and said, “I don’t care about you. You can think what you want. It’s more pleasant to talk to Meiling.”
“If you want to harm me, harm me, not my sister.” Sakai Rie snapped.
Masayoshi Kishimoto stopped in his tracks and turned sideways to face her again, “I’m going back to my bedroom to be alone, that’s always fine!”
“You’re not eating?” Rie Sakai said bluntly.
“What’s there to eat when I’m so full of anger from you?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with neither a smile nor a laugh.
“Who’s pissed at you? You’re pissed at yourself. You can’t think of anything else. I was only talking just now, why do you take it so seriously?” Sakai Rie came to a piggyback playing a nail rake is to hit a nail rake said.
“After saying half a day, the fault still lies with me.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with more than a bitter smile.
“Yes.” Sakai Rie nodded her head with a sweet smile and said.
