“Since you don’t dare, why don’t you hurry up and execute it?”

Fujiwara’s cold voice rang out, giving Matsuda a a fright.

“Yes!” Matsuda responded and also retreated, not daring to say another word.

Fujiwara coldly sent Matsuda’s back into the distance. Then, with a cold expression, he retracted his gaze and walked upstairs. After a short while, he changed into a clean set of clothes and went downstairs.

In the living room, the servant had already made him tea while Matsuda had already packed his briefcase and was waiting by the side.

Fujiwara strode over and sat down on the sofa. He picked up the tea with one hand and took a simple sip. Then, he picked up the newspaper and started reading.

The scandal between him and Dongfang Liuyun was naturally still being reported in the newspaper.

However, it seemed that none of the parties involved had made any moves.

Fujiwara thought for a moment, then hurriedly reached for the remote control and turned on the television in front of him. He changed several channels in a row and saw that some of the programs were also breaking news about them.

Fujiwara furrowed his brows deeply and silently turned off the television. Just as he was about to get up and leave, he heard rhythmic footsteps coming from upstairs

‘Thud thud thud’

It was the sound of high heels against the floor.

Fujiwara looked towards the source of the sound and saw Riko Inoue in a gorgeous dark purple dress walking down from upstairs. She was wearing a luxurious outfit.

The gaze in her beautiful eyes was also looking at him calmly.

Fujiwara’s gaze instantly darkened and his entire body turned cold. However, he lowered his gaze after just one glance.

“I didn’t see you even when I came here. You didn’t come home for a whole night. Aren’t you worried that I’ll tell Uncle Fujiwara?”

Seeing that Fujiwara didn’t say anything, Riko Inoue finally spoke first.

The coldness in Fujiwara’s eyes intensified after he said this. He could not help but sneer, “Are you here to spy on me on Father’s behalf?”

Riko Inoue also knew that the relationship between Fujiwara and Kenji Fujiwara was a bit stiff. Both father and son seemed to have the same strong temper, so they were in conflict. No one could say for sure. Everyone in the family also knew about the relationship between the father and son, so…

“Mr. Fujiwara is very worried about you, Fujiwara-kun. You shouldn’t betray his good intentions and be biased against him. Even if you’re dissatisfied with him, he’s still your father, the person who gave you life.”

Riko Inoue slowly walked down the stairs as she spoke calmly.

“It’s not your place to interfere in our matters. Since you’re already here, it’s best for you to behave yourself. Don’t interfere in matters that you shouldn’t interfere in. Otherwise, I’ll arrange for someone to send you back to j.a.pan.” Fujiwara spoke coldly.

Hearing this, Riko Inoue’s gaze instantly turned cold. She looked calm as she said, “What matters should I not interfere in? Fujiwara-kun doesn’t seem to understand my purpose for coming here. Uncle Fujiwara isn’t the only one who supported me coming here!”

“Whoever supported you to come here, let them make the arrangements for you. Why did you come to my Cloud Residence?” Fujiwara said coldly.

“Don’t forget that your surname is Fujiwara, and you are a descendant of the Fujiwara family. The mission on your shoulders doesn’t allow you to be so impudent. Do you think that I’m willing to interfere in your matters again? It’s not like you don’t understand the situation between the two families. Right now, the Fujiwara family and my Inoue family have finally reached an agreement, and we need our marriage to improve the relationship between the two families. The current situation isn’t much better for your Fujiwara family either. Why do you think Uncle Fujiwara is in such a hurry?” Riko Inoue said bluntly.

As soon as she said this, Fujiwara’s expression changed rapidly

Even though he had already legally refined the industry and stabilized the Fujiwara family’s economic status, from a long-term perspective, Riko Inoue’s words were indeed correct.

This was the trend of the future, and it was not something that he, Fujiwara, could change by himself. Therefore, the current situation was really…

His father, Kenji Fujiwara, valued the family’s business the most. That was why he did not hesitate to try his best to facilitate his marriage with Riko Inoue.

Thinking of this, Fujiwara was actually a little dejected. However, there were many things that he needed to fight for himself. He had already missed out once, and he did not want to miss out a second time. Otherwise, he would never have another chance.

And if she was not by his side, what was he living for?

He had been lonely for so many years!

“What does this have to do with me? Do you think that the Fujiwara family’s descendants will inherit the family business? When have I ever cared about the family business?”

Fujiwara laughed coldly and said nonchalantly. His cold appearance made him seem like an unruly wild horse. The Fujiwara family could not control him at all.

When Fujiwara said this, Riko Inoue’s expression darkened slightly. His eyes were naturally filled with disbelief!

“Do you know what you’re saying, Fujiwara-kun?”

Riko Inoue widened her beautiful eyes slightly and stared fixedly at Fujiwara.

“I know what I’m saying. If Father wants to sacrifice my personal feelings and marriage to achieve the Fujiwara family’s glory, I don’t mind leaving the Fujiwara family with nothing.”

Fujiwara’s tone was sonorous and resolute. His stern and serious appearance gave even Matsuda a a fright!

“Master, don’t be rash!” Matsuda cried out in surprise, wanting to stop Fujiwara.

“You’re simply crazy! Crazy!”

Riko Inoue’s face was naturally filled with disbelief. Her beautiful eyes widened as she stared at Fujiwara without blinking.

“I’m not crazy. This idea isn’t something that can happen in a day or two. If you really want to tell my father, feel free to tell him. I don’t care. I don’t care anyway.”

As Fujiwara spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows in exhaustion. He took a cup of tea and took a sip as well.

“Uncle Fujiwara only has one son. Could it be that you have the heart to disappoint them? You have to know how much effort the Fujiwara family put in to get to where they are today.”

Riko Inoue took a deep breath as well. The strings in her heart instantly tightened—

That was because she knew very well what Fujiwara’s words meant.

“Who said that the Fujiwara family’s descendants are born with the responsibility of inheriting the family business? If I, Fujiwara, am just an ordinary person with nothing to do today, do you think father would treat me differently? Would the Fujiwara family treat me differently?”

Fujiwara was actually not too concerned about the Fujiwara family’s situation. His heart had never been there.

Especially because of the incident with Dongfang Liuyun, Fujiwara was extremely disgusted with the situation at home, not to mention the matter between his mother, Yoon, and his father.

His sarcastic voice caused Riko Inoue’s heart to sink. She could not quite react to this—

“You… how can you say that…”
