"If I could go back to the past now, I would definitely choose to prevent my father from being with Sakai Umeko, and I can indeed do this, because my father was really very good to me. Back then he decided to let Sakai Umeko
When I was his secretary, he even made a special phone call to me just to avoid my misunderstanding."
Sakai Masashi sighed, shook his head and said: "As time went by, I also noticed that the relationship between my father and Sakai Umeko was gradually warming up, but I still didn't do anything, just stood by silently.
Bless him until I first met Sakai Umeko in person...that is, three years ago, when my father officially decided to marry her."
"What happened?"
Seeing that Sakai Changzhi was about to speak but hesitated, Liu Xing couldn't help but ask.
"If I guessed correctly, that day was my last chance to stop Sakai Umeko, because I had already discovered that there was something wrong with Sakai Umeko that day, but I only thought that Sakai Umeko was greedy for my father's property, so I didn't say anything more.
What, anyway, my father has a lot of money and can give me a lot... Although in the eyes of outsiders over the years, I have been regarded as a rich second generation who spends money like water and a prodigal son, but apart from this brewery, I
In fact, I still have a lot of properties, and I am a certified doctor, so even if my father doesn’t give me a penny after a hundred years, I can still live a good life.”
"Back to the topic, the three of us had dinner at home that night, because my father and I are both pretty good at cooking. After all, you know that my mother died after I was born, so my father started
They hired a nanny to take care of me. But what can I say about the nanny? Everything else was fine, but sometimes she was too sloppy. So one day when I was riding a bicycle with training wheels, I bumped into her.
I fell over a broom in the garden, and I almost fell into the fish pond next to it. I was only three or four years old at the time, and I definitely couldn't swim."
"So, my father fired the nanny, and then prepared a quiet room next to his office. He would come over to play with me when he was free. He also learned the daily meals from TV, so
Later, when I become wiser, I will also cook for him..."
Listening to Sakai Masachi taking the topic further and further, Liu Xing didn't say much because Liu Xing knew that Sakai Masachi was taking this opportunity to miss his father.
After a while, Masachi Sakai, who was still talking about the past, suddenly came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I digressed while I was talking, because I have been hiding here all this time and I dare not
Contact anyone. After all, strictly speaking, this place is already the territory of Sakai Umeko and the Kamakura family, so I have been worried that this place has been monitored by them, but I dare not leave here because I know the outside world very well.
It’s more dangerous than here.”
"It's okay, I have plenty of time now."
Liu Xing shook his head and said seriously: "You may not know that the current island country is facing a storm, because the public faction and the martial arts faction are about to begin the final battle... Yes, the reason why Sakai Umeko is here
Taking action at this time is actually because the Kamakura family wants to annex your family's group as soon as possible and add a new weight to themselves."
"A battle between public and military forces?"
Sakai Masachi suddenly said: "I see, this is the battle of Kōmu that Sakai Umeko was talking about."
"Hmm? Did Umeko Sakai tell you about the Battle of Gongwu?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
Sakai Masachi nodded and said: "To be precise, I heard Sakai Umeko calling someone from the Kamakura family and mentioning the Battle of Komu; let's go back to the previous topic. At that time we were
When we met for dinner at home, because my father had to cook the food himself, I had no choice but to stay in the living room and chat with Sakai Umeko. What should I say at the time, although I was a little bit repelled by a stepmother who was about the same age as me,
But as long as my father is willing, I still have nothing to say."
"But as the chat progressed, I found that Sakai Umeko's situation was very different from what I had imagined. To put it simply, after I confirmed that my father wanted to marry Sakai Umeko, I found a few friends to go there.
I was investigating this Sakai Umeko to see how her interpersonal relationships were, so as not to cause trouble after she married into my family. As a result, the news my friend sent me back was pretty good. Although she graduated
I am from a little-known third-rate university, but the reputation in the school is pretty good, except for being a bit worshipper of money."
"But saying she worships money actually means that she wants to marry into a wealthy family, so she doesn't like her peers in school at all, so some people use this to discredit her after her pursuit fails... Although the fact is
That's true, but it didn't seem like a big deal to me at that time; but after I chatted with her for a while, I felt that there was something wrong with Sakai Umeko's speech and behavior, because Sakai Umeko's parents were in her elementary school.
She passed away when she was young, so she could only go back to her hometown to live with her grandparents, but she didn’t feel like a country girl to me at that time.”
"In this Sakai merchant village, besides my family, there are many people who are living a good life, so in order to maintain our relationship, our generation will take a few days to go out for gatherings every year and see if everyone is doing well.
What opportunities for cooperation? Of course, sometimes other people from Sakai Shangcun will come to us to socialize, so I am well-informed and have seen all kinds of people. Among them, the type of people I am most familiar with is
It’s a nouveau riche, because the main purpose of Sakai Shang Village is mutual benefit and reciprocity, just like my family has supported several families through various outsourcing in the past few decades.”
"So, from the beginning, I defined Sakai Umeko as a nouveau riche, because she has been following my father in these years and has gained a lot of personal wealth, so I think her speech
She might behave like a nouveau riche - trying her best to fit in, but occasionally she would appear to be incompatible with others in her speech and behavior. As a result, I miscalculated and found that Sakai Umeko performed much better than I thought. If
I didn't know her past, so I would have thought that she was the daughter of a big family... In fact, she might actually be a member of the Kamakura family."
"But at that time, I thought that Sakai Umeko was arranged by my father to take a few etiquette classes, so I didn't pay too much attention to it. Then I ate and chatted with my father, and then they were officially engaged with my congratulations;
Because it was an old and young couple, my father decided not to hold a grand banquet, but just invited close relatives and friends over for a meal, and then they started to decide who to invite over the dinner table."
"Because I didn't need to participate in this matter, I ran to wash the dishes. After I finished washing the dishes, I found that my father and Sakai Umeko had already decided on the wedding banquet list, and then they were going to go back to work. At that time
I wanted to take a video, so I stayed at home. When I finished taking the video and was about to go out to play, I found a paper ball in the trash can. It looked like it was used by my father and others to type in the wedding banquet list.
It was a draft, so I picked it up and looked at it out of curiosity."
"As a result, when I opened the paper ball, I saw that a word on it had been obliterated at the beginning. This was obviously not obvious from the front, but a friend of mine once mentioned it.
In this case, you can lightly scribble on the back of the character with a pencil, so that you can see what was originally written. However, after I did that, I found that Sakai Umeko just wrote next to the character iron...
At that time, I should have realized that what Sakai Umeko wrote was the word Kamakura in Kamakura, but I didn’t take it too seriously at the time because there were too many words next to the word “iron” and there was a partner in my family.
The surname is Tieshan."
Liu Xing nodded and said with some surprise: "It seems that Sakai Umeko was unprofessional at that time and almost wrote the word sickle. So what I want to know now is how Sakai Umeko dealt with it.
Between you and your father?”
"Poison."
Sakai Masachi said without hesitation: "After my father and Sakai Umeko got married, I wanted to give them a space for two, so I chose to move to the city to live alone. I only occasionally see each other during the holidays.
I went back to see them, so some people outside who didn't know the truth thought that I was not optimistic about my father's second marriage, so I ran away from home after a quarrel with my father, and this became a bargaining chip for Sakai Umeko.
To improve my status in the group, everyone subconsciously changed the second-in-command from me to her."
"During this period, every time I went back to visit them, I would find something was wrong with my father. At first it was just a cough or something, but later he even looked a little tired, so I asked my father to go to me.
The hospital where I worked before did an inspection and found that there were no problems with the routine items at all, so I thought it was because the company had a lot of things going on recently, so I could only ask Sakai Umeko to help my father take more of the load... As you can imagine, Sakai Umeko
It was in my name that I officially entered the group’s decision-making level.”
"The day before my father was about to announce the news, I happened to go back home because of something, and I found that Sakai Umeko was giving my father medicine. Because it was Chinese medicine, I asked what it was.
Tonic medicine, after all, I joined a club when I was in college, and the leader of that club was from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and I had a good relationship with him, so sometimes I would ask him to prescribe me some medicine to take care of my body;
What I didn't expect was that Sakai Umeko was hesitant and unable to explain, so I realized something was wrong and thought she was trying to harm my father so that she could divide the family property early and raise a pretty boy."
"How should I put it? Men have a fascination for guns, cars and football, so when I was in middle school, I asked someone to buy a classic revolver. When I had nothing to do, I would cosplay Western Cowboys at home, and then I bought more one after another.
Some classic pistols, if I were not still in the island country, I would be ready to start another pistol review pit after the craft beer review video is completed, and when I go back, I just want to take away a Glock pistol;
So after I found out that Sakai Umeko was going to do harm to my father, I angrily went back to the room and took out the Glock pistol, but there was no bullet in the pistol, just to scare Sakai Umeko."
"The result naturally made me regret not loading the bullet, because when Sakai Umeko saw me pointing the pistol at her, her behavior made me feel that something was wrong. To put it simply, Sakai Umeko didn't panic at all, and she remained the same.
He looked so at ease, and even knocked out my father with a knife. This made me suddenly think of the female killers in some movies, which made me panic because I knew the gun in my hand was not safe.
Bullets, and if Sakai Umeko in front of me is really a killer, he can kill me at any time... So I gave up, and I quickly ran back to my room to load my gun."
"As a result, when I returned to the room and hurriedly loaded the bullets, I found that Umeko Sakai was missing. At the same time, I realized another problem. I spent a lot of time just returning to the room to load the bullets, and I was nervous for a while.
Shimo didn't pay attention to his back, and he didn't even lock the door, so if Sakai Umeko wanted to do something to me, he could do it at any time; at this time, I thought of two possibilities. One was that I was thinking too much, Sakai
Umeko is a bold ordinary person, so she took this opportunity to run away. Secondly, Sakai Umeko is indeed a female killer, and now she is planning to play like a cat with a mouse."
"While I was vigilant about the surroundings, I took out my mobile phone and prepared to contact the security guards in the villa area, because I knew that they could be equipped with guns when necessary, so calling them over to help now was the best choice. As a result, I found myself
Unsurprisingly, my cell phone lost signal, so I prepared to leave the villa first, because I just like to collect pistols and have never been to the shooting range a few times, so I was not confident in my shooting skills; then when I opened the door
When I was walking, I smelled a strange smell, and then I fell to the ground involuntarily, and my whole body was in a state of sleep."
Speaking of this, Sakai Masachi sighed and said: "At that time, I heard key words such as Kamakura, Kōmu's Battle, and Money from Sakai Umeko, and then I realized that Sakai Umeko was sent by the Kamakura family.
Man, but at that time I didn’t know what the battle between public and military forces meant, and I thought I had heard it wrong.”
"I see, then how did you escape from Sakai Umeko, Masachi Sakai?"
