The Gemini Princess wants me to confess my feelings!

Chapter 141 Head-to-Head

It was peak time for people to enter the party, and many people were standing at the bottom of the stairs.

Kirihara Akira's words were like dynamite thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that spread far and wide.

This guy is crazy—that was the first thought that popped into everyone's head.

Many people looked at Kirihara Akira with varying degrees of surprise, hostility, interest, or thought he was trying to attract attention, but none of that mattered to Kirihara Akira.

He only needed to focus on Shan Rong Hai Dou in front of him and observe the guy's reaction.

Yamae Kaito was stunned for a moment, and it took him ten seconds to react before he threw his head back and burst into laughter.

He walked over, leaned closer, and said, "Brother Wuyuan, you're a truly remarkable person."

Yamaei Kaito tried to get closer, but was stopped by Kirihara Akira's driver.

Yamae Kaito frowned unhappily and said, "What, do you suspect I'm going to kill someone in broad daylight?"

Kirihara Akira patted the driver on the shoulder, signaling him to step back.

"Brother Kirihara is truly wise." Yamaei Kaito laughed, put his arm around Kirihara Akira's shoulder, and said, "Let's go to the banquet hall. There's plenty of good food and drink, everything you could want."

"Young Master Shanrong is very generous," Kirihara Akira said with a smile. "I thought you were going to make things difficult for me."

"How could that be?" Yamae Kaito said with a smile, "Brother, let me tell you the truth."

"Go ahead, brother," Kirihara Akira said.

"Compared to the Mori family, the Yamaei-kai may not dare to say that it is a large and powerful family, but it does have some historical accumulation." Yamaei Kaito said, "When the whole industry is large, it becomes difficult to control the personnel. Think about it, I am the main family, and I manage hundreds of branches, which in turn have countless branches."

Think about it, with tens of thousands of people involved, it's inevitable that there will be some bad apples.

Kirihara Akira raised an eyebrow and said, "Brother, do you mean that someone in the branch is acting recklessly and ruining the reputation of the Yamaei-kai?"

"Oh, right." Yamaei Kaito's face lit up with joy. "To be honest... even if it's embarrassing, the companies under my command have been giving me a real headache lately, they're really hard to manage. So I really didn't know about some people wanting to kill you."

The two entered the banquet hall, and Kirihara Akira said, "Brother, I have a question that I hope to get an answer to."

"Ask me anything I know, and I'll answer without hesitation." Shan Ronghai's heroic spirit soared to the heavens.

Kirihara Akira said, "Tell me, how did I, an orphan who has nothing, become a target of the underworld?"

Yamae Kaito looked regretful, sighed, and said, "Brother Kirihara, I know that the passing of your parents was a great blow to you, and you may want to know the truth, but to be honest, I don't know the situation either."

"I see." Kirihara Akira said nonchalantly, "It's alright. The deceased are gone, and the living should still live their lives well."

"Open-minded! Carefree!" Shan Rong Haidou praised, "I admire your personality. Here's what I'll do: I promise you, I'll use my resources and connections to do my best to find out an explanation for you."

"Good, brother, you're really generous." Kirihara Akira patted his shoulder heavily.

"However, in exchange, Brother Rong, I have a question for you," Shan Ronghai said with a forced smile.

"Please ask me anything, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge." Kirihara Akira replied with a sufficiently fake smile.

Shan Rong Haidou said, "As you know, there's an old Chinese saying: 'A gentleman seeks after a beautiful woman.' It's not exactly a secret, but I'm interested in your daughter."

"Oh~" Kirihara Akira looked surprised and said, "I see."

Seeing that Kirihara Akira was pretending to be stupid, Yamaei Kaito's lips twitched slightly, and he said, "Yes, I've been pursuing her for a long time. She's my dream goddess. If I miss her, I don't know if I'll ever meet such a good woman again in this lifetime."

Kirihara Akira asked, "Which one do you like, brother?"

Shan Rong Hai Dou smiled meaningfully without saying a word, as if everything was understood without being spoken.

Kirihara Akira laughed and said, "Brother, are you kidding me? You like them both?"

"I wouldn't dare be so greedy," said Yamae Kaito. "Any of them is fine."

Even if it was just a pretense, Kirihara Akira was still disgusted by those words.

What a beast! He completely sees the two sisters as his prey.

"You're still joking with me, saying you've been pursuing them for a long time, but it doesn't even go back to that 'long time.' It was just this year, their birthdays were just over, and two months ago, they were still minors." Kirihara Akatsuki continued, "And I don't know what this has to do with me?"

Saying that he's an old ox eating young grass is disrespectful... Shan Rong Haidou's heart was filled with malice, but he still smiled and said, "To be honest, I'm a little older than them, so I've never dared to be too aggressive before. When an old ox eats young grass, you have to give the young grass time to grow."

When they finally came of age, oops, you suddenly appeared. Oh dear, I'm worried about the men and women of childbearing age.

"Oh." Kirihara Akatsuki looked enlightened and said, "You're afraid I'll become your rival."

"Hehe." Shan Rong Haidou was annoyed by the word "fear".

"Then I'll speak from the bottom of my heart," Kirihara Akira said. "What am I? I'm nothing. If it weren't for the fact that my parents had a connection with Mrs. Mori back then, I'd probably be homeless by now. Don't you think so?"

Shan Rong Haidou interpreted these words as an admission of weakness, which made him feel a little better. Instead, he defended Shan Rong Haidou, saying, "You can't say that. You can't judge a person by their background."

Kirihara Akira chuckled and said, "The differences between social classes still exist objectively, so I've always tried to keep my distance from them."

"Hmm." Yamaei Kaito was very satisfied with Kirihara Akira's attitude.

"However..." Kirihara Akatsuki changed the subject abruptly: "Perhaps it's because these two ladies of noble status have the excellent virtue of being courteous to the virtuous and humble, they have always been very kind to me."

Living and eating together inevitably leads to some interaction.

Yamaei Kaito patted Kirihara Akira on the shoulder again and said, "...Hehe, yes, I can understand."

"Meeting them was my good fortune," Kirihara Akira said. "In this life, the only person I don't want to let down is them, so take my advice: one should always be faithful."

"And another thing," Kirihara Akatsuki said, "When it comes to matters of the heart, it's meaningless for unrelated people to say anything. Ultimately, whether or not someone will be moved depends on the individual's own wishes. Why don't you just go and ask one of them what they think?"

Yamaei Kaito's pretense was indeed convincing; even Kirihara Akira's sarcastic tone couldn't shake off his disguise.

The two still appeared to be having a pleasant conversation, but at this point, they both knew that they had thoroughly offended each other.

After saying a few meaningless words, Yamae Kaito said, "You're right, we should go find him. I'll go find him in a bit."
