So in the end, I had no choice but to force a smile and stand there.
“Okay!” Cheng Shi quickly replied, “I understand what you mean, Auntie.”
This is too simple.
It's so simple that Snow Mother shouldn't have brought this up on her own initiative.
Rather, it's his own behavior when he's in that situation.
Therefore, this is most likely not Snow Mother's true purpose.
"However, given the current situation, we don't need to go to Yukinoshita's house, right?"
The so-called party invitation.
If someone isn't exceptionally powerful, there's no need to bring their entire family along, right?
Can't you just make up any excuse?
Upon hearing this, Xue's mother sighed softly.
“If it’s similar to our family’s situation, then we can certainly do what you said.”
"But this is an invitation from the Suzuki family, and we can't refuse."
"?"
"Which one?"
“Suzuki,” Xue Mu repeated earnestly, as if to make Cheng Shi more certain, “It’s Suzuki from the Suzuki Group.”
After listening, Cheng Shi asked Xue's mother with a strange expression.
"Do you remember what the invitation from the Suzuki family said?"
"Yes, they said they'd be attending the opening and closing ceremonies of a spaceship launch."
Logically speaking, they shouldn't have been invited to this kind of event.
After all, they weren't particularly familiar with the Suzuki family.
Even on the construction company side, there have been conflicts with each other on some projects.
But basically, they're the ones who are avoiding it.
After hearing Xue's mother's explanation, Cheng Shi's expression became even stranger.
He summoned a shadow soldier to take his place, then took out his phone and dialed Sonoko's number.
"Moshi moshi, Brother Chengshi! What do you need me for?"
"Oh, no, there's something I wanted to ask you. Didn't I promise Xiaolan a couple of days ago that I would go to your family's spaceship? Is there anything I need to board your family's spaceship?"
Upon hearing this, Sonoko answered without hesitation.
"I don't know. I just told Uncle Jijiro directly, and he said he would arrange it."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi nodded.
"I understand, then I know what's going on."
"Hmm?" Sonoko noticed that Shigeo's tone was noticeably more relaxed than before: "Did something happen?"
Cheng Shi didn't hide anything: "Your uncle sent out invitations and came to our house in the snow."
"That is to say?"
"Mansion".
Chengshi's answer confirmed for Sonoko the reason he had called this time.
That's because the uncle had his subordinates send an email that scared the whole family.
"I'm so sorry, Brother Chengshi, I didn't expect Uncle to make it so formal."
"No, that's alright. I wanted to ask how many people will be boarding the ship?"
Cheng Shi was a little curious whether, if he sent it to the Shinomiya family, they would send the male head of the Shinomiya family to come.
"I don't know either, since my uncle is handling all the arrangements. Should I go ask him?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi shook his head: "Forget it, it's not a big problem. Don't bother your uncle."
"Just tell me what you know."
"no problem."
The garden gave Cheng Shi a brief explanation of the opening and closing ceremony process.
Cheng Shi appeared to understand.
But knowing the plot inside, he clearly understood that the ship wouldn't last until the closing ceremony.
Well, $1.5 million, and it only took one day to fly.
After Sonoko finished speaking, Naruhiko chatted with her for a while, then said that she would see him in a few days and ended the call.
Xue's mother, who was listening nearby, looked at him with a surprised expression, unsure of what to say.
Finally, Cheng Shi spoke up: "That's roughly the situation. Auntie, the invitation you received was actually for the garden."
"It's just news that the second young lady of the Suzuki family invited us to go out."
Upon hearing Cheng Shi's words, Xue's mother fell into deep thought.
Are young people these days really that good at having fun?
What else?
"The second daughter of the Suzuki family?"
The second daughter of the Suzuki family, the head of one of Japan's four major conglomerates?
Why are you so familiar with your future son-in-law?
"Was the Suzuki Group aware of your situation?"
"I've told Sonoko, but her boyfriend doesn't know yet."
Cheng Shi paused after speaking and then continued, "Their family members probably know, but I didn't reveal it to them, so they didn't mention it."
Upon hearing this, Xue's mother nodded knowingly.
"That's definitely the style you'd expect from a large conglomerate."
After expressing her feelings, Xue's mother couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
"You seem to be quite familiar with the second young lady of the Suzuki family?"
“Yes,” Cheng Shi nodded, “My niece and she have been best friends since they were little.”
They're practically like sisters.
Upon hearing Cheng Shi's words, Xue Mu's expression became somewhat complicated.
My niece's good friend.
Although they are quite far apart.
But given Suzuki's size, even a small amount of money leaked would be painful for them to catch up with.
Moreover, that's only a small part, a part that they don't care about at all.
In other words, even if Cheng Shi didn't have the identity of an immortal, his status as his niece alone would be enough for them to think carefully.
Not to mention, he spoke in such a casual manner when he was on the phone with the second young lady of the Suzuki family.
This is clearly proof of a good relationship.
Thinking of this, Xue's mother couldn't help but say, "Your connections are quite impressive."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi looked up and thought for a moment.
The four major conglomerates got to know two of them.
One is the person in charge, and the other is a pampered young lady.
Then there's Uncle Mori, who also helped the police.
The rest are all Kogoro Mouri's connections.
There is also a Sanae Tokomori at the school.
However, we can only be considered friends of friends.
However, if one is not an immortal, then this amount of connections is indeed sufficient.
Thinking of this, Cheng Shi hesitated before asking, "Is that considered impressive?"
The main reason is that there was no opportunity to use these connections.
Upon hearing Cheng Shi's answer, Xue's mother was about to speak when Yang Nai's voice came from the living room.
"Mom, Dad will be back soon."
"understood."
