Chapter 1591 Let Me Say It

Gao Yuan originally approached Sakuraba Yuji just because he wanted to point out the actual evidence that the two people wore the same necklace pendant mentioned in the original work, in order to reveal the relationship between him and Katagiri Kaede. Therefore, even though Sakuraba Yuji's necklace was well hidden, Gao Yuan, who knew about the existence of this thing, easily discovered the existence of the necklace pendant.

However, when Gao Yuan got closer to the other person, he smelled a slight scent of orange coming from Sakuraba Yuji. It was slightly faint, but at this distance, it was still quite obvious.

Hearing this, Sakuraba Yuji was confused. He was shocked and didn't know what to do because Gao Yuan pointed out the matter of the necklace pendant. Suddenly, Gao Yuan asked him about the "orange flavor" inexplicably, which made Sakuraba Yuji even more confused about why Gao Yuan did this.

  However, after hearing Gao Yuan's words, Xiao Ai, who was holding a cat beside him, came forward, seemed to sniff the smell of Sakuraba Yuji that Gao Yuan mentioned, and then took the initiative to speak:

"Orange flavor? It does smell a bit like orange. No wonder the cat wanted to escape from your arms just now.

"You should know that cats really dislike the smell of citrus fruits, such as oranges, lemons, and tangerines. This is because citrus fruits contain limonin, volatile oils, and high concentrations of acidic substances that are harmful to cats. These ingredients not only make cats sensitive to the smell of citrus fruits, but may also cause them to automatically stay away from them."

Hearing this, Sakuraba Yuji was stunned, and seemed to understand a little why the master's cat disliked him so much today and wanted to slip away from him, but...

"I... I haven't eaten anything like oranges today? And..."

  As Yuji Sakuraba said this, he seemed to be trying to confirm the smell of his body and sniffed his shoulders and arms, but he could not smell anything, so he asked in confusion:

“I don’t smell anything…”

"Then it looks like this smell has stayed on you for a long time, and your sense of smell has become numb to it, so you can't smell it."

Gao Yuan said this thoughtfully about the situation.

  This made Yuji Sakuraba even more puzzled:

"Does this... matter?"

"I don't know. I just smelled something, so I asked casually."

As if he had finished thinking, after Sakuraba Yuji asked this question, Gao Yuan smiled and explained as if jokingly, and then brought the topic back to the necklace pendant -

At this point, Sakuraba Yuji no longer hid the secret between himself and Katagiri Kaede, because it was just as Gao Yuan said, the necklace pendants they wore were of the same style, which obviously showed that the relationship between them was not ordinary.

  ——"So, Ms. Katagiri, you came to the Morizono family's manor because of Mr. Sakuraba. The person you really like is Mr. Sakuraba, right? But because of your behavior of coming here, the young master of the Morizono family mistakenly thought that you had feelings for him, so Mr. Shigematsu, you acted as a matchmaker and arranged their marriage?

"And because the Morizono family is powerful enough to influence the development of the Katagiri family's company, and your father's company has been clearly threatened, Miss Katagiri had no choice but to agree to this marriage.

"As for Mr. Sakuraba, since you are a servant working for the Morizono family, you can't do anything about this matter from your position, right?"

Because Gao Yuan had exposed the key to the matter, Sakuraba Yuji and Katagiri Kaede had no choice but to admit it. After listening to Gao Yuan's summary, they both looked at Shigematsu Akio with trepidation.

After all, Shigematsu Akiho is the steward of the Morizono family and the matchmaker of this matter. Now that he knows about this, the two have made preparations for the worst and are ready to face the pressure from the Morizono family that they may face in the future.

As the instigator who forcibly exposed the matter, Gao Yuan smiled with some pleasure after getting the two people's personal admission, and asked them: "If you hadn't said this, would you have kept this secret until after you got married?

“In that case, Ms. Katagiri will become Mrs. Morizono, and Mr. Sakuraba will still work for the Morizono family. You may see each other all the time in the future, but no one can tell this secret.

  "But now that we already know about this, are you still going to continue hiding this secret?

"Of course, if you are willing to keep it a secret, we don't mind. After all, we are just guests, and if Mr. Shigematsu is willing, I think he will keep it a secret for you...right? Mr. Shigematsu?"

As he said this, Gao Yuan directed the topic back to Shigematsu Akito.

After all, they have been hiding the secret, but they keep meeting each other, and they can never go back to their previous relationship experience. Here, no one should have more say than Zhong Songmingnan.

Just like that, listening to Gao Yuan's words, Sakuraba Yuji and Katagiri Kaede lowered their heads and fell silent.

It seemed that if this matter had not been pointed out to them, then the two of them would have intended to keep their relationship a secret as Gao Yuan said, and just let it go on like this, because the obstacle between them was the Morizono family...

But now, when someone knew about this matter and it was exposed in front of them, it was like the two people who were banned from the spot were pushed from behind. Although it was just a light push, which could not make them ignore the obstacles brought by the Morizono family, they seemed to have the idea of ​​changing their mind -

"I've decided. Even if the result is not satisfactory, I don't want to remain silent about this matter any longer. I will confess everything to Mr. Morizono and the others!"

As if she had made up her mind, the seemingly weak Katagiri Kaede made her choice at this moment, and in response, Sakuraba Yuji said:

"How can this be possible? You confess this to the masters at this time... I'd better go! Even if I lose my job, I will go and tell the masters about this!"

Determined, Yuji Sakuraba was also ready.

——"No, let me say it..."

  But at this moment, Shigematsu Akihiro spoke in a heavy tone, as if he had made some important decision, and said to the two of them solemnly:

"Since I am the one who caused things to come to this point, I will explain it to the master."

Saying this, Shigematsu Akio, looking a little depressed, walked towards the mansion alone.

Seeing Shigematsu Akinao's decision, Hattori Shizuka and Gao Yuan, who knew the reason why he made this decision, seemed to be relieved.

At this point, he will eventually have to face what happened back then...
