Chapter 608: Important Things
Minato District, Keio University Headquarters. Inside a cafe on campus, Sakai Mirei and Suzuki Shinsuke were sitting face to face.
She looked a bit bored as she picked up a stainless steel coffee spoon in her right hand and was aimlessly scraping the layer of coffee foam on the surface of her cappuccino.
“Your brother-in-law, Chairman Kishimoto, is just too powerful. His shorting of Argentina’s financial market this time was a big win.” Suzuki Shinsuke said excitedly.
Sakai Mirei noticed his surge of excitement and couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, “What are you excited about? It’s not like you’re the one who gained the success.
You didn’t ask me to come here just to talk to me about this one thing! If you’re thinking of asking me to match you with Brother Justice, you’ve got the wrong person.
Besides, he’s so busy all day long, he doesn’t have any spare time to chat with you. If you really wanted to insist, you could have asked your cousin Kazuya Takahashi to do it for you!”
“No, no, you’ve misunderstood me. I definitely didn’t ask you out just for this one thing, but I have another important thing to say to you.” Suzuki Shinsuke hurriedly made an explanation.
Sakai Meiling didn’t raise her personal interest just because of that. In her heart, she thought, “What important thing can you have to say to me?
If she hadn’t crossed paths with Masayoshi Kishimoto over a long period of time, she might have been able to have a favorable view of Suzuki Shinsuke.
In any case, he was also a gentlemanly looking man, not too short, with a gentle nature, and came from a famous family, the Suzuki family after all.
This was the perfect candidate for many girls for Suzuki Shinsuke to be both a boyfriend and a husband. However, it was a completely different story when it came to her.
She had witnessed how Masayoshi Kishimoto had risen from obscurity in the financial world to his current status. Kishimoto Masayoshi’s male charisma, the strong man’s vigor and the ability to make decisive decisions …… are the most fascinating for women to fall in love with and be fascinated by.
Not only the man’s body has the desire to conquer, and some women’s body is the same with the desire to conquer. This is the real man, the top man. As for Suzuki Shinsuke, he was just a big boy.
Suzuki Shinsuke spoke after a long silence, “Please go out with me officially!”
Sakai Mirei froze for a moment, and then quickly recovered. She was particularly calm inside, without a single star of happiness.
It was the same feeling as any other ordinary boys’ confessions to her in the past. If one had to say the difference between Suzuki Shinsuke and the other ordinary boys, it would be that the former was of a higher social class, part of the upper class ranks.
“It’s really hard for me to accept your decision so easily.” Sakai Meiling refused without any inflection.
Suzuki Shinsuke was instantly a bit dumbfounded, after all, it was the first time he had suffered a rejection from the object of his confession. In the past, once he said something like that, the girl would be delighted, often with joy. Today, it was completely out of his expectation.
“Why?” Suzuki Shinsuke’s one eye widened considerably as he asked offhandedly.
“You said you wanted to officially date me, so did you go through your parents?” Sakai Mirei said without avoiding the gaze he was looking at her with.
“What does that have to do with my parents?” Suzuki Shinsuke said as he pretended to understand.
“How is it not relevant? It has a lot to do with it. If your parents don’t approve of me dating you officially, then what am I?
Am I the same as all the other girlfriends you’ve dated before? Either for your physical needs or as a decoration for your side?
In order to let you feel in your heart do not owe a what, either to take to the upscale restaurant dinner, or to buy her some luxury goods? Or simply give money directly.
As for the object of your future marriage, you still have to listen to your parents’ orders and the words of matchmakers to decide. If anyone asks you about marriage, just lie and say you’re not married or something to cope.
When you get tired of playing around, you just casually find an excuse to say something like personality incompatibility as a reason to break up.” Sakai Mirei said bluntly.
“I would never do that.” Suzuki Shinsuke swore.
“You might as well take that crap and lie to other girls! If you really want to go out with me officially, it’s better to get your parents’ permission first.
First of all, I don’t lie. I come from an ordinary middle class family in Kochi prefecture, Shikoku. My father used to be a clerk at a small local bank, and was let go by the bank a long time ago.
My mother ran a small local minshuku store. Below me, there is a younger brother who is no good. As for my sister, she’s a woman you all know.
I borrowed money from my brother-in-law for my college tuition, living expenses, and so on. After I graduate and work, I’ll have to pay back some of this outstanding debt.” Sakai Mirei was completely unfazed and said.
Suzuki Shinsuke of course knew her well. Even if she didn’t tell him to his face, he knew all about it from his cousin Kazuya Takahashi.
He also knew that Sakai Mirei was not an ordinary girl, and even more so, she was not the kind of girl he used to be.
He didn’t dare to mess around with her because she was related to her cousin’s family and Kishimoto’s family. In the future, we will all be hanging out in the upper class circles.
Why would he want to be embarrassed when he saw her when he saw her? He had a sincere desire to formally socialize with Sakai Meiling, after all, she was cute and smart, but she came from a poor background.
After all, she was cute and smart, but her background was poor. She is not empty-handed, as usual, has certain cards and chips. She was the sister-in-law of the hard gold plutocrat Masayoshi Kishimoto.
“I genuinely like you.” Suzuki Shinsuke said in a serious manner.
“En, I know. However, all relationships that don’t presuppose marriage are just hooliganism. So, you still need to ask for your parents’ permission before doing so.” Sakai Meiling responded coldly.
“Am I that untrustworthy?” Suzuki Shinsuke said seeing that the one thing she was very insistent on was that she had to ask her parents first before she could do so.
“It’s not that you’re untrustworthy, it’s that none of you men are very trustworthy.” Sakai Mirei said without hesitation.
“I think you’ve been brainwashed by your sister’s thoughts. Do you feel compelled to squeeze an engagement letter in your hand to feel at ease?” Suzuki Shinsuke snapped.
“Don’t mention Rie Sakai in front of me. She’s her and I’m me. It doesn’t matter if you mock me for being unenlightened, backward, and feudal …… thinking. It can’t hurt me.
If I remember correctly, your cousin Kazuya Takahashi’s fianc茅e Yuki Mizuhara likewise has that same paper engagement!” Sakai Meiling immediately blushed and got upset and said.
