Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 902 0890 [Inhumanity]

Several people from the Sakuragi family looked at it in astonishment and saw that the TV was replaying the news about the awarding of honorary citizenship certificates of Tokyo.

As the Commissioner of Police from Hong Kong, he participated in the reform of the Metropolitan Police Department of Japan. He not only helped to form the "Flying Tigers", but also helped Tokyo to crack down on criminal forces. In particular, the special operation of "sweeping away gangsters and eliminating evil" initiated by the other party was very successful, allowing the citizens of Tokyo to feel the tremendous changes and enhancing social security and stability.

In view of these achievements, the Police Commissioner from Hong Kong, China was awarded the title of "Honorary Citizen" by Tokyo's top leaders.

At this moment, the young Commissioner of Police was in high spirits, waving his arms passionately, and warm applause broke out from time to time.

The Sakuragi family watched TV carefully, and when they saw that the young man who was speaking so passionately was Du Yongxiao, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.

"Ahem, how is this possible?"

"Am I seeing this wrong?"

Several people rubbed their eyes hard, afraid that they had seen it wrong, and then turned their heads to look at Du Yongxiao again, still finding it hard to believe that this was the same person.

In fact, it is no wonder that they have doubts. Du Yongxiao on TV is dressed in a suit and tie, looking full of energy and vigor. He is surrounded by a group of people like a star surrounding the moon. Even the mayor of Tokyo is standing by to applaud and cheer for him.

At this time, Du Yongxiao was wearing ordinary casual clothes and chewing stir-fried broad beans. He did not look solemn or rigorous at all. No matter how you look at it, you can't overlap the images of the two people together. But if you look closely, it seems that they are really the same person.

While everyone was talking, Sakuragi Rin went into the kitchen to wash fruit and didn't pay attention to what was being said here.

At this time, she came out with a fruit plate and said with a smile: "Everyone, have some fruit. These Fuji apples are very fresh!" Before she finished speaking, she felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and asked curiously: "Hey, what's wrong with everyone?"

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly and nodded towards the TV. Sakuragi Rin looked over and saw Du Yongxiao giving a speech on TV. She remembered that everyone had questioned Du Yongxiao's identity just now and was afraid that they all believed it now.

Sure enough, as my uncle and aunt were watching TV, their expressions kept changing. Their moods were going up and down, their heads were dizzy, and it felt like they were on a roller coaster.

They never expected that the young man they had just looked down upon and despised was actually a senior official in Hong Kong! Even the mayor of Tokyo was cheering on him, which showed that the other party was quite powerful!
So they hissed, took a breath, and their eyes began to show awe when they looked at Du Yongxiao.

Sakuragi Rin saw everything and felt angry and amused, but what filled her heart more was pride.

Sakuragi Rin's father and mother were in different moods at the moment.

Sakuragi Rin's mother liked Du Yongxiao from the beginning. She not only thought Du Yongxiao was handsome, but also had a good temperament. He was not too frivolous like other young people, but seemed very steady and generous. Now that she found out that Du Yongxiao's true identity was not an ordinary person, but a senior official of the Hong Kong government, she was even happier, and even couldn't stop smiling. She looked at Du Yongxiao with doting eyes, just like a mother-in-law who liked her son-in-law more and more.

Father Sakuragi felt complicated.

From the very beginning, he looked down on Du Yongxiao, thinking that he was a Chinese. He was very reluctant to see his daughter marry far away.

Moreover, he felt that Du Yongxiao was bragging, saying that he was the head of the police force at such a young age!

He is young, but he brags so much!
But now-——
Facts have proved that Du Yongxiao was not bragging. On the contrary, what he said was true.

Dad felt like his head was hit by an iron pillar, making a buzzing sound. He felt a little suffocated for a moment, and when he looked at Du Yongxiao, it was like he was looking at a monster.

Ying Mulin bent down to put down the fruit plate, then knelt beside the table next to Du Yongxiao, picked up an apple and peeled it with a fruit knife, and said with a smile: "Brother Du, this is our sweet apple from Mount Fuji, full of juice and juicy fruit, you must try it!"

According to the traditional rules here, men are superior to women, especially daughters. When giving fruit to others, they should first give it to their parents or uncle and aunt. However, Sakuragi Rin gave it directly to Du Yongxiao first.

Du Yongxiao didn't think too much about it and took it directly in front of everyone.

The old man and the other four looked at it, but they didn't think there was anything wrong. Who made them shocked by Du Yongxiao's identity just now? No matter where they are, the official family is always the most important, and parents have to stand aside.

Then, Sakuragi Rin distributed the fruits to his uncle and aunt.

When Sakuragi Rin's great aunt took the opportunity to ask Sakuragi Rin in a low voice when she received the apple, "Ah-Rin, is he really the police chief on TV?"

Seeing Sakuragi Rin nod, the aunt was stunned, not even noticing that the apple in her hand had fallen. After a long while, she came to her senses, stood up in a panic, and said to Du Yongxiao stiffly: "Du, Director Du, my words just now were offensive to that--"

He bowed directly to Du Yongxiao: "Private Marseille! Please forgive me!" As he spoke, he hurriedly tugged at his uncle's clothes.

The eldest uncle understood and hurriedly stood up and bowed: "Private Masai, I'm sorry for the offense just now!"

The Japanese are very particular about etiquette, and whether it is true or not, this attitude makes Du Yongxiao very satisfied.

Besides, the other party was Sakuragi Rin's relative, so Du Yongxiao couldn't hold on to it, so he stood up and said, "You two must not say that, you are the elders, please take a seat--"

The uncle and aunt then sat down nervously, looked at Sakuragi Rin's parents, and bowed again to apologize: "Sorry, we looked down on you. We didn't expect that A-Rin already had such an outstanding boyfriend!"

Seeing that the two people who had been so arrogant just now actually bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, the father and mother couldn't help but feel very satisfied and proud.

Especially the old man, who was full of confidence at this moment, and said arrogantly: "No need to apologize, we are all family! But just now you seemed to say that our family brought shame to the Sakuragi family..."

"Ahem, no! I was just talking nonsense!" The eldest uncle said hurriedly, reaching out to pour tea for the old man: "You also know that I have a foul mouth and sometimes I speak without thinking! Now, if Ah Lin and Mr. Du really become a family, our Sakuragi family may have to rely on you in the future!"

"Yes! Yes! There are not many officials in our family! Even in Hong Kong, being an official is prestigious!" said the eldest aunt. "Now it depends on whether our Sakuragi family can have good luck in the future! Hahaha!"

It's rare that my uncle and aunt think so. The Chief of Police is equivalent to the head of the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department. This position is very powerful. They feel that it is a great blessing for the Sakuragi family that Sakuragi Rin can marry Du Yongxiao.

The old man was delighted when he heard this. He coughed and said, "Don't say that! My daughter is not very talented and I don't know if Mr. Du likes her?" After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "That's not right."

"Uh, why not?" Dad was stunned, thinking that Du Yongxiao was unwilling.

"Alin is so beautiful and has many suitors around her, so it should be whether Alin agrees to be with me, not whether I am willing to accept her!"

"Oh, so that's how it is! Hahaha!" The old man became happy and thought that this young man was not bad. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him and he spoke nicely.

Seeing Du Yongxiao defending his daughter like this, Sakuragi Rin's mother couldn't stop smiling. This was really a blessing from heaven. How could she have such a high-ranking official's son-in-law? That was secondary. Especially his attitude towards her and her husband, he was as respectful as his own sons. It seemed that he must love Sakuragi Rin very much.

Sakuragi Rin's mother has always doted on her daughter. She used to worry about her daughter's work and marriage, but she never expected that now she has found such a good partner. Thinking about it, she began to cry.

"Oh, by the way, Ah Xiao gave us a gift yesterday. Old man, why don't we take it out and show it to our uncles?" The mother rarely showed off and encouraged the father.

Father Sakuragi actually wanted to show off, but on the surface he said: "That's not necessary! That's the child's sincere love, no matter it's good or bad, we should accept it sincerely!"

"Just take it out and let them see it. They want to see it too, right?" Mother turned to look at my uncle and aunt.

The two looked at each other and thought, if you want to show off, just show off. Why ask us? "Ahem, we are also curious, but we don't know what gift Mr. Du gave you."

"Yeah, it's good to show it to everyone! Let them learn more!"

The two had to say.

The mother became happy, stood up, ran into the house in her wooden clogs, and quickly brought out the gifts that Du Yongxiao bought for them.

In the opinion of my uncle and aunt, the first time a man visits someone, he will at most give some fruit or nutritional supplements. Someone with a little status will give a higher-grade red wine, a gift box, etc. So they guessed that what Du Yongxiao gave was at most a gift box containing some American ginseng, or the popular bird's nest and abalone in Hong Kong.

but--
"Come, come, take a look first!" Mother first held out the Chinese purple clay tea set that Du Yongxiao had given to Father Sakuragi, and said, "See? This set of Chinese tea sets is very beautiful. It is said to be the best purple clay tea sets over there—"

My uncle and aunt looked at it and found that this set of tea set was indeed exquisite and more distinctive than the traditional Japanese tea set they had.

"Ahem, this tea set is very nice."

"Yeah, it's going to cost a lot of money, right?"

"Not much!" Sakuragi Rin said. "It's just 100,000 yen!"

"Hiss!" Uncle and aunt took a breath and looked at the tea set. One hundred thousand yen?
The father and mother were also stunned. Although they accepted the gift, they did not have the courage to ask their daughter how much it was worth. They did not expect that this set of tea set alone would cost one hundred thousand!

One hundred thousand yen is equivalent to four to five thousand Hong Kong dollars in this era, and four to five thousand Hong Kong dollars is more than three months' salary for many Hong Kong white-collar workers!
"Hehe, they're so expensive!" Mother touched the tea sets in surprise.

In the eyes of her uncle and aunt, she thought this was a deliberate show of showing off. They thought, just keep acting. Don’t you know the price of such an expensive gift?
"What about this kimono?" the mother asked Sakuragi Rin, "It's not cheap either, right?"

Sakuragi Rin took out a kimono and tried it on her mother, saying, "It's not too expensive, only two hundred thousand!"

"Ahem!" The mother shivered and almost dropped her kimono on the ground.

Her family has always been poor, and they almost emptied their savings to support their daughter to go to college, so the kimonos that Sakuragi Rin's mother usually wore were leftover kimonos from her great aunt or other people. Even if they bought new ones during the holidays, they were always discounted backlogs or defective products.

Where had she seen such an expensive kimono? She was stunned for a moment.

Sakuragi Rin looked at her mother and knew what she was thinking, and she couldn't help feeling bitter in her heart.

She remembered clearly that when she was a child, she had no new clothes to wear during the New Year, so her mother would cut up her own kimono and make new clothes for her by hand, but she herself could only wear those tattered kimonos.

When she went to college, her mother was reluctant to spend an extra penny so that her daughter could eat well and study hard. She rarely wore precious traditional clothing such as kimono, and even if she did, it was the leftovers from others.

Now that she has money, she just wants to compensate them well and let them spend their old age happily.

"Mom, don't be surprised. In fact, this amount of money is not much for Brother Du! If you like it, I will buy it for you often in the future!"

"Uh, you buy it for me?" The mother was stunned. Sakuragi Rin's words revealed two meanings. First, Du Yongxiao was very rich, and second, his daughter seemed to be very capable.

"You quit your job as a police officer, so where do you get the money to buy these for me?"

"I found a new job!" Sakuragi Rin hugged her mother and laughed, "So you can rest assured from now on, I will support you!"

Sakuragi Rin said this with pride. Now she is in charge of Pangu Security Company. Not to mention dividends, her monthly salary alone is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is more than 2 million Japanese yen!
Especially as a girl, in such a male-dominated society, what kind of strength does it take to be able to say such words loudly?
Before Sakuragi Rin's family could figure it out, Sakuragi Rin took out the set of Takahashi Goro silver jewelry that Du Yongxiao had given her: "As for this set of silver jewelry, it is the masterpiece of Master Takahashi, and it cost one million when I bought it!"

boom!
The mother felt dizzy.

"Cough cough cough!" Dad almost choked to death on the tea.

The eyes of my uncle and aunt almost popped out of their sockets. There was only one number in their minds: "One million?"

"Daughter, you are not wrong, are you? Just this set of silver jewelry costs one... one million?" the mother asked again.

Sakuragi Rin nodded, "I didn't let him buy such an expensive one, but he said that this one made by a master is more meaningful, and it also has collection value, and it will definitely appreciate in value in the future--"

These words were indeed said by Du Yongxiao.

Because Du Yongxiao knew that as time went by, the masterpiece of Master Takahashi Goro would be put on the auction, and it would be hard to find one! A single large silver feather could be sold for 400,000 Hong Kong dollars!
The value of a set like this is even more difficult to estimate.

Dad and mother were so excited that they were speechless. They looked at Du Yongxiao and realized that their future son-in-law was so generous!

“These are too valuable!”

"Yes, Xiao, you are thoughtful!"

My father and mother almost cried with joy. This son-in-law is so good. Not only is he an official, but he is also so rich. Most importantly, he is so generous to them and is not stingy at all. It seems that they will have hope for their retirement in the future.

The uncle and aunt woke up from their shock and saw that the other "family" was living in harmony. Especially when Du Yongxiao gave them silver jewelry worth one million yen at the first sight, they were deeply shocked!

The two of them murmured in their hearts again, everyone said that Hong Kong police were rich, but they didn’t expect it to be true!
Looking at the set of silver jewelry, the aunt was drooling and wished she could give birth to a daughter like Sakuragi Rin and find a rich son-in-law like Du Yongxiao.

Just when the uncle and aunt were envious, Du Yongxiao turned his head to look at them and smiled: "I didn't know you two were here, otherwise I would have prepared a gift for you--"

"It's okay, it's okay!"

"Yeah, we have everything!"

The two of them spoke politely, but there was hope in their eyes.

Du Yongxiao smiled, "But I just happen to have a little something on me, why not give it to you as a gift!"

"Ah, what is it?"

My uncle and aunt's eyes suddenly lit up.

Du Yongxiao reached into his bosom, took out a black wallet, then used his index and middle fingers to pick out a golden business card, and personally handed it to the two of them, saying, "Here, this is it, my business card."

"Ah?" My uncle and aunt were disappointed when they saw this. They looked at the business card and thought it would be more practical to give some Japanese yen.

"Ahem, thanks!" The uncle took the business card politely. Suddenly, he realized that the card was wrong -
It’s a bit overwhelming!

Some metallic feeling! Check it out carefully——
That turned out to be——
Pure gold!
