Chapter 397

While the iron is hot, Zhu Yuyan calls Suzuki Yoshiko when she’s ready, informing her to “prepare a gift” and implying that even Zhu Yuyan’s gift is “all yours”, intending to whore out Suzuki Yoshiko’s wallet for nothing!

Suzuki Yoshiko, for the first time, was being exploited openly by someone she despised – she didn’t realize that it had been done in secret before – so naturally she was furious, and went to Suzuki Saburo and complained bitterly, focusing on the fact that “Yanji has changed, and she’s not the same good person she used to be”. She’s no longer the good person she used to be.”

Suzuki Saburo: “……”

He believed that Yan Ji’s intelligence must be able to come up with more skillful means of utilizing Jia Zi, in the past, not always coaxed people very well, this time it is so simple and straightforward, could it be that he and Yan Ji have talked about the relationship? This is even to Jia Zi’s “care”?

He knows that Jia Zi has always held a certain hostility towards Yan Ji, because he repeatedly and deliberately praised Yan Ji in front of Jia Zi’s face, causing Jia Zi children’s personal alarm. His intention was to prevent Jia Zi really Yan Ji as a friend, as long as there is jealousy, women can never become a true friend.

As long as there is jealousy, a woman can never be a true friend. Now Yoshiko is really full of hostility and vigilance towards Yan Ji, and she can also “realize” Yan Ji’s use, he should be happy.

Suzuki Saburo said heartbreakingly, “It’s been hard on you, Yoshiko.”

Suzuki Yoshiko was refreshed by her husband’s gentle comfort! More importantly, she has finally revealed Yan Ji’s true colors, and now Saburo will never praise Yan Ji as a good woman again!

However, Suzuki Yoshiko can’t help but curse Zhu Yuyan as she prepares her gift.

Zhu Yuyan receives a call from Suzuki Yoshiko to prepare a gift, and immediately pays a personal visit to Yamamoto, greeting him about his health, expressing her concern for him, as well as helping Su Chunjun, who couldn’t come to pay a personal visit, to show her sincerity. After finishing her nonsense, she gently expresses that she would like to bring a friend to visit Jin Juli.

Zhu Yuyan: “It’s a Japanese noblewoman and a good friend of mine, Mrs. Suzuki.”

Yamamoto looks unhappy, the smile that was on his face just now is gone.

Zhu Yuyan said softly, “Your son has been in a bad mood, I think it would be better for her to meet a few new friends she can trust. Mrs. Suzuki is a very loyal Japanese noblewoman, she has the virtues of a Japanese woman, and she has a high education, and her husband, Mr. Suzuki To, has always been highly trusted, so I think it would be appropriate to ask her to be your son’s new friend.”

It was a play.

A play that both sides probably knew all too well, but still had to insist on playing by the roles.

Because they both wanted to be the winner at the end, and both hoped that they could fool the other.

And both think that they can be the one to reveal the cup at the end.

As she would suspect Yamamoto, Yamamoto must have been doubting whether she had really fallen for it, and whether her behavior at this moment was genuine, or was she just pretending?

But even if he suspected, this game was set up by him, and when she acted according to his design, it was impossible for him – to take the initiative to call it off.

In the past, Zhu Yuyan was still afraid that he would find out, and he hard not dare to care too much about Jin Juli’s situation.

Now, it was tantamount to the director letting go of the water, so what else did she have to be afraid of?

As long as Yamamoto did not call out the card, she could act however she wanted.

So, Zhu Yuyan hard to softly, but also lightly sprinkle tears, and even made up a small essay on her friendship with Jin Juli to express how much she wanted to help her good friend.

When Yamamoto utilizes Jin Juli to make bait, she increases the amount of Jin Juli, stating that the bait smells great, so please make sure to increase the amount of bait!

Zhu Yuyan spends the afternoon in front of Yamamoto and finally gets him to agree to let Suzuki Yoshiko come along to visit Jin Juli.

Yamamoto threatened her, “Yan Ji, I hope the friend you brought is worthy of your trust.”

Zhu Yuyan said gently, “Mr. Yamamoto, Yoshiko is also Japanese, how could she not be trustworthy.”

Yamamoto sneered, “Hmph, it’s the Japanese, not all of them are trustworthy.”

Mr. Yamamoto is also reinforcing his image of “not trusting the Japanese, but trusting the Chinese, that is, you and your wife” every chance he gets.

Understand.

Zhu Yuyan immediately expressed her loyalty: “Mr. Yamamoto, you can trust me! And my husband, we are both trustworthy people!”

All in all, both sides coaxed each other to be very happy, this kind of you know I know, you don’t know I know, I don’t know you know state is really a test of acting skills.

The next day, Zhu Yuyan brought Suzuki Yoshiko and the gifts to Mr. Yamamoto’s house as promised.

Mr. Yamamoto didn’t see them, and directly let someone lead them to meet Jin Juli.

Jin Juli was cleaned up well in advance by the maid, lying tamely, the thick quilt covered her whole body, could not tell if her hands and feet were tied.

Seeing Zhu Yuyan and another Japanese woman, Jin Juli’s behavior has a little bit of retardation.

Zhu Yuyan quickly realized that the blush on her face was not from heat, she was still shivering, her eyes were not very alert, as if she had not woken up, her eyelids were half-closed, and she was always half a beat slow in answering.

Medicine?

Or opium?

Both were possible. More like opium*smoke or dai*.

It seems that even though Yamamoto said he’d let Juri Kim have this baby, he didn’t care if the baby itself was healthy or not. On occasions like this one this afternoon, in order to keep Konjuri from going crazy, they use drugs to keep her quiet.

Of the three, only Suzuki Yoshiko was truly excited.

She gently cares for Jinjuri, even if Jinjuri’s speech is too slow and still a bit slurred to be heard, she makes a show of listening attentively, she helps the maid to wipe Jinjuri’s sweat, and tells her to take care of her body with peace of mind, so that she will definitely be able to give birth to a healthy child.

Regarding Jin Juli’s current pregnancy, Zhu Yuyan told Suzuki Jiazi in advance.

Suzuki Yoshiko didn’t think that Zhu Yuyan lied to her when the maid said “Ms. Guizi is recuperating”, she just directly interpreted it as Jin Juli got sick after she got pregnant.

When she went back to Suzuki house, Suzuki Saburo of course had to call her here to ask her clearly, Suzuki Yoshiko just followed her old habit of learning all the conversations she had with other people to Suzuki Saburo, of course, including the conversation she had with Zhu Yuyan.

After listening to it, Suzuki Saburo asked her rhetorically, “Yanji told you that Ms. Guizi is pregnant.”

Suzuki Yoshiko: “Yes. She specifically told me that in the car.”

Suzuki Saburo: “Then, Miss Takako’s maid told you that Miss Takako was sick and was recuperating.”

Suzuki Yoshiko: “Yeah, it’s really hard on a pregnant woman, her body gets all kinds of sick.”

Suzuki Saburo: “……”

Suzuki Yoshiko tried to express how hard it was for her when she was pregnant and talked for a long time until she realized that Suzuki Saburo was looking at her and not saying anything.

Suzuki Yoshiko: “Saburo?”

Suzuki Saburo looked at her and sighed deliberately and deeply, “Haven’t you ever pondered what deep meaning there is in what Yanji said to you?”

Suzuki Yoshiko wasn’t really stupid, not to mention that she had a natural intuition about the shady secrets in this kind of mansion. She understood almost immediately as she covered her mouth and said, “Oh my god, is Ms. Takako secretly pregnant?”

She lowered her voice, “Could the baby be Mr. Yamamoto’s?”

Suzuki Saburo: “That’s …… unclear.”

What about the unimagined hypothesis.

He now understood why Yanji had brought Yoshiko to Yamamoto’s house.

Because this kind of “news” would only be believed if Yoshiko, who was also Japanese, told it. Yan Ji could not accomplish this on her own.

Would Yoshiko tell?

Of course she would.

Suzuki Saburo knew very well how much Yoshiko liked to gather crowds and gain authority in them, and it was through this gathering of crowds over and over again that she gained her authority.

And she became the center of attention in the crowd whenever she knew information that no one else knew.

Suzuki Saburo pondered for a moment whether to tell Yoshiko not to tell.

But he didn’t do so.

What did it matter?

He was already planning to join the U.S. National Guard.

So, Yoshiko Suzuki gushed and held a tea party and flower arrangement the next day, inviting all the Japanese women she knew.

Then the news that Yamamoto had impregnated his adopted daughter, Takako, went, well, viral.
