Chapter 465: Valuing (Revised)

Sakai Rie and the governor’s wife were talking to each other over lunch. Women together, regardless of age, always inevitably talk about fashion, trends, anecdotes and so on.

Rie Sakai rarely went back to her hometown, Kochi Prefecture, so she was naturally interested in what was going on here. In contrast, the governor’s wife was particularly interested in what was happening in Tokyo.

Rie Sakai tells her about Tokyo, while Mrs. Sakai tells her about Kochi. The two of them then hit it off without a lull in the conversation.

Although the governor didn’t say much, he was happy in his heart. This lady diplomacy is different, not only let the Mizushima family and the Kishimoto family have a certain relationship, but also deepen the bond between the two sides.

After the meal, the governor not only ordered the gifts that had been prepared, but also ordered his own full-time driver to personally send Sakai Rie.

Watanabe Saeki, who followed the light, dabbled in a lunch and likewise received a number of gifts. In fact, this was not important, but what was important was for her to once again feel the importance of networking.

She and Sakai Rie are childhood friends, good girlfriends, classmates,…… brought her not only benefits, but also the expansion of the network above.

Sakai Rie is naturally and the governor couple this level of interaction, and they can and the governor secretary and other close friends to start a necessary socialization.

They all knew each other very well, and in the future, there would be something that they would ask each other for, and the other party had a certain ability to help or solve it directly.

Watanabe Saki was a woman who spoke well beside Sakai Rie, and even in front of the main man, Kishimoto Masayoshi. In their eyes, this was extremely important.

As for Watanabe Saiki, her thoughts were in common with Sakai Rie’s, that is, even though she was in Tokyo, she could not take care of things in her hometown, but there were her parents and others, so if she needed to be taken care of, she could help.

Giving money directly to the family is not as effective as this. They would feel from the bottom of their hearts that the child was really capable and awesome.

The only person who was the least happy was Sakai Mirei. She was just a high school student, so there were not many people who took her for granted, after all, within the world of adults there was no right or wrong, only profit.

Of course, Sakai Misuzu knew that it wasn’t her status as a high school student that limited her ability to be taken seriously, but rather it was just an excuse to reassure herself.

If she had the title of Masayoshi Kishimoto’s fianc茅e, it would also mean that it was she who was the future Mrs. Hard Gold Zaibatsu. Even if she was an elementary school student, she would still have their stars and saddle smiles.

However, she was not. Even if she had the identity of Sakai Rie’s own sister, it had little value to speak of with adults, especially those who had been in the workplace or officialdom for many years.

In their minds, it was nothing to do with children. Children may think they know a lot. In reality, they don’t understand at all. They won’t even know what the basic face of society is.

If they really wanted to curry favor with Sakai Meiling, it would all be to curry favor with Sakai Rie. On this current occasion, it was obvious that they would not be able to steal the limelight from the governor couple.

It couldn’t allow them to have any misunderstandings about themselves and couldn’t wait to get to the top. Even if they had such an idea, they couldn’t implement it right now.

Rie Sakai’s first stop was at her father Masao Sakai’s place, not her mother Aiko Sakai’s folk inn. Nowadays, the relationship between one’s parents was that they were not divorced, but were in a state of separation.

Masao Sakai and Aiko Sakai also knew that the two of them, even if their relationship was completely broken, could not choose to divorce before Rie Sakai had officially married Masayoshi Kishimoto.

They could not afford to add new trouble to their eldest daughter, and to Masayoshi Kishimoto. In Japan, an intact family, too, had great value in existence.

“You came back just as you came back, there’s no need to bring back so many gifts.” Sakai Masao looked at his daughter’s large bag of gifts and put them in front of him and said.

“Some of these were given to me by the governor and his wife, I thought I wouldn’t need them, so I’ll give them to you father! Those are the ones that Masaru Kishimoto and I gave you.” Rie Sakai introduced.

“Masayoshi is a good boy. Is he good to you?” Masao Sakai said seriously.

“He’s been good to me. He wasn’t able to come back home, and that’s because he flew to Shenzhen, China for something very important. Afterward, he will also fly to Mumbai and New Delhi in India.” Rie Sakai said truthfully.

“You have to be able to understand that a man should put his career first. As his career gets better, you will follow suit.” Masao Sakai said bluntly.

“I know, father.” Rie Sakai smiled.

Only then did Masao Sakai shift the gaze he had gathered at his eldest daughter to his youngest daughter and said, “How about you? How’s it going?”

Sakai Meiling even if she was dressed head to toe in a big international brand, she did not get the attention she wanted. She wasn’t valued by the governor couple, and that was because she didn’t have the status of a plutocrat’s wife, not because of what you wore.

Sakai Masao valued his eldest daughter, not because of her status as a plutocrat’s wife, but also because of Kishimoto Masayoshi, after all, the other party not only shared their money, but also took good care of Sakai Rie.

“It’s still just that.” Sakai Mirei said with an unhappy tone.

“What other things are you unhappy about? If there is, you punch me.” Sakai Masao said in a serious tone.

“What can I be dissatisfied with? Do I dare?” Sakai Meiling coldly said.

“Why are you still holding onto that one thing from the beginning. It’s reasonable to say that this one thing hurt your sister Rie the most.

How come it makes me feel as if it was you who was hurt the most?” Sakai Masao understood the meaning of his youngest daughter’s words as soon as he heard them.

“Initially, I was firmly against that one thing. However, you ……” Sakai Meiling said with great emotion.

“You didn’t take the money? Not only you, but me, your mom, and your little brother all took money. Only your sister within our family didn’t take it.” Masao Sakai directly interrupted without waiting for her to finish.

“You guys stop talking about it. Things have passed, so let it pass. It’s not easy for our family to reunite once.” Sakai Rie interjected to stop it.

“Sister, that’s easy for you to say. You’re the biggest winner, who doesn’t know that you’re the hard gold plutocrat’s wife today?

And me? I’m just a little bit of crumbs in a big meal.” Sakai Meiling said with a twelve-percent reveal.

Sakai Rie instantly stopped talking. It wasn’t like she didn’t understand that Meiling would never be able to solve this knot in her heart right here.

The only solution was for the other party to marry Masayoshi Kishimoto. This was another thing that was completely impossible. Even if he withdrew, Masayoshi Kishimoto would not marry Mei-Ling.
