Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

"How much courage did I give her?"

The moment he opened his mouth, the room fell completely silent.

The gloomy-faced young man's face also turned bright red. He lowered his head sheepishly and said, "I dare not."

Of course he didn't dare.

The Phoenix Inu family's "Five Elders" may sound a bit childish, but they are all undeniably legendary figures.

The business world is like a battlefield. It is no easy task to fight your way out of the encirclement of the four traditional conglomerates and grow into a towering tree.

The five family leaders back then were all outstanding individuals, shrewd, ruthless, and ruthless.

Unfortunately, humanity's greatest enemy is the endless passage of time.

Of the renowned "Five Elders," three have already died.

The only two remaining are Li Fuyao's maternal grandfather, Phoenix Institute Keiji, and Phoenix Institute Heiji, who is nominally the head of the Phoenix Institute family and sits in the main seat.

Of the current "Five Elders," three are merely successors to the three powerful figures of the past.

The father of that sinister young man was one of them.

Therefore, when he saw Phoenix Institute Leader speaking, he didn't dare to be presumptuous at all—not to mention the old man's legendary deeds, in terms of seniority, he had to call him grandfather.

Phoenix Institute's Qi Zhi, like a lion awakening, looked around with a somewhat disdainful smile.

"how?"

"Judging from your expressions, none of you are convinced?"

"Because our Fuyao is a girl, because she's still young?"

"If you bunch of good-for-nothings were even a fraction as good as Fuyao, the Phoenix Courtyard family wouldn't have been suppressed and beaten by those defeated opponents these past few years!"

"Hehui, you may not be very capable, but you certainly have a big temper. You've ruined the development of those small islands in the south, haven't you?"

"If it weren't for your father, who's not much better than you, cleaning up the mess for you, you probably would have lost all your savings."

The sinister young man known as "Hehui" muttered somewhat resentfully.

"Those bastards from the Mitarai family are just too unruly!"

Upon hearing this, Phoenix Institute Keiji became enraged and began to curse loudly.

"Calling you stupid is an understatement! Are you a three-year-old?"

"Rules? Who are you talking to about rules?"

"The business world is a battlefield; one wrong move and you're wiped out, leaving no trace. Is the Phoenix Inu family's current wealth and status due to their adherence to the rules?"

"When you, you idiot, were targeting those kids from the Collectors' Association, why didn't you follow the rules?"

"They're experts at fighting amongst themselves, but they make a complete mess of anything they do!"

"You still have the nerve to stand here and point fingers? Back in the day, someone like you would have been stripped of your surname and kicked out of the house long ago!"

The white-haired old man flew into a rage, and everyone present fell silent, not daring to utter a sound.

“Fuyao is far superior to you bunch of good-for-nothings—I’ll take this opportunity to stop hiding my true abilities from you.”

“Ningning doesn’t like to get involved, but Fuyao has a talent for it.”

"From now on, all matters, big and small, of my branch will be handled by Fuyao."

“You all treat her as you would treat me. Anyone who looks down on her is showing no respect for me, Phoenix Courtyard Qi Zhi!”

"I'm not dead yet!"

"I'd like to see who's hoping this old man will go to his coffin soon!"

The ripples caused by these words were even greater than those caused by Li Fuyao's cold remarks just now.

There is no precedent for a woman from another family to be in charge of the household.

But no one dared to object.

This lion-like old man was no pushover; countless people had been ruined and destroyed by his schemes.

Nobody wanted to provoke him.

Phoenix Institute Leader took a few breaths and waved his hand impatiently.

"If no one says anything, I'll assume you have no objections."

"."

"Alright. You can continue. Weren't we supposed to be discussing those shipping routes to South America today?"

"We won't get involved in that matter; you can handle it yourselves."

After saying that, Phoenix Institute Keiji ignored everyone present and vented Li Fuyao's anger. He lowered his head with a kind face and a gentle smile on his wrinkled face.

"Fuyao is back."

"Hmm, you went to see him?"

Grandpa was furious, but Li Fuyao remained calm and composed.

She really didn't take these people seriously.

If she gets serious, she doesn't even need to use force; she can easily outmaneuver these spoiled brats and old scoundrels who grew up in a greenhouse and make them cry.

Yes, it's impossible for such a large conglomerate to have an incompetent younger generation, but in such family-run businesses, nepotism rather than meritocracy is common.

In recent years, Phoenix Academy has indeed been on a downward trend, which is something everyone knows.

When Li Fuyao heard her grandfather ask this question, a blush appeared on her usually calm face.

"Oh, did Mom tell you everything?"

Phoenix Institute Leader smiled knowingly.

“I usually spoil Ningning so much, how could she hide it from me? Tsk, apart from running away with that brat back then, Ningning has always been quite well-behaved.”

"However, it seems that Ningning's judgment is indeed good. At least the daughter she had with that brat is a rare little genius."

"Alright, Fuyao."

“I don’t care much about social status, otherwise I wouldn’t have acquiesced to your parents’ relationship in the first place.”

"What I value is ability."

"Although your father was a stubborn bastard, he had a pair of iron fists that made him quite famous back then."

"I heard that the young lover you've taken a fancy to comes from a poor background—that doesn't matter, but you have to show me what he's capable of."

Li Fuyao seemed to have thought of something, and smiled brightly. However, her cold gaze, completely opposite to her smile, swept over the noisy conference room, which was as chaotic as a vegetable market.

"Grandpa, don't worry."

You'll see his abilities in a few days!

Chapter 313 A Perfect Match for Two

While the grandfather and grandson whispered among themselves, everyone in the Phoenix Courtyard also harbored their own secrets.

Besides Li Fuyao's branch, there is also the branch headed by the family head. The heads of the other three branches are all middle-aged men in their forties or fifties.

Judging from what Phoenix Academy Qi Zhi meant, it seemed that his branch was going to be handed over to Li Fuyao.

Tsk. Although that little girl has done a lot in the past few years, making her lineage thrive, what right does a woman have to take charge?

The few present, intimidated by Phoenix Institute's imposing presence, dared not say much, but they were certainly resentful and secretly plotted to trip him up.

Phoenix Inu and Teru had been plotting to harm Ryunosuke Akutagawa for this very reason.

Everyone knows that the connection with the Collectors Association was maintained by Li Fuyao alone, and now that extraordinary power is growing stronger, they can't help but feel a little envious.

We're all from the Phoenix Institute family, so it doesn't matter who we follow.

Give those superhumans a good talking-to, let them know who the master is, and then snatch this power from that woman's grasp.

That's what Phoenix Institute and Teru thought.

Now, more people are broadening their thinking.

Li Fuyao is the successor of Qi Zhi of Phoenix Academy, no problem.

But she's a woman.

Women all get married, right? After marriage, does the husband have the final say?

For a time, they even came up with quite a few candidates to use their "handsome men" to seduce men.

In a tacitly unsettling atmosphere, the chaotic meeting ended, predictably without any results.

The following day, Kyoto was sunny and clear, a perfect day for an outing.

President Akutagawa ran away from home and didn't return all night. Uesugi Kiyoshi called him repeatedly, but he didn't answer. It seems that he was worried and afraid of being beaten when he came back, so he simply disappeared.

Of course, he was a sensible person, so Uesugi Kiyoshi wasn't too worried that he might actually quit.

Uesugi Kiyoshi got up quite early today, but by the time he finished washing up and went out, he already saw Kyoko busy in the kitchen.

Today, Xingzi wore a pure white chiffon dress, revealing half of her fair and jade-like calves. The dress looked quite ordinary, but it was probably her best outfit.

Moreover, this dress has a very noticeable "flaw".

It's too small.

Or perhaps the apricots were just too big.

Even her apron couldn't conceal the trembling, heaving waves of Xingzi's chest, creating a breathtaking spectacle as she wielded the spatula.

Fortunately, this beautiful scene was only visible to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

He coughed lightly, which caught Kyoko's attention.

Then, the girl's still slightly swollen eyes filled with a sweet smile.

"Good morning, Uesugi-kun~"

"Breakfast will be a while, would you like some snacks first?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi wrinkled his nose, and after deciding to put one of his own coats on Kyoko before taking her out, he smiled and shook his head.
