Thinking of this, Lin Yi, who was still thinking, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
I almost forgot that he is different from normal people and doesn't need to worry about being targeted.
In other words, when it comes to material things, Lin Yi has no weaknesses.
There is probably no one in this world who is tougher than him.
Volume 4: Chapter You Can Marry Me Into Your Family (k)
The next day, morning.
Lin Yi sat in the office's official car and was taken by the driver to the meeting place agreed upon today.
What surprised Lin Yi was that Noriko Toyokawa did not set the meeting place at the Toyokawa family's house or the Toyokawa family's building.
Instead, it was set up in Kuiqian Pavilion under Lin Yi.
This made Lin Yi even more unable to guess Toyokawa Noriko's true attitude and what she wanted to do.
However, if you can't guess it, then you can't guess it...
Lin Yi turned his head and looked out the window. Although this was a suburb of Tokyo, many connected houses had been demolished and many workers were doing surveying work.
Toyokawa Group plans to build a new music sanctuary in the area where SPACE is located, and they have already started construction.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt unhappy again.
Although the fundamental reason why he did not lose money in the last cycle was because of the information gap of SPACE, the biggest role was undoubtedly played by Toyokawa Group.
If they hadn't insisted on getting involved, SPACE might have become popular as well, but Kuiqian Pavilion might not have been successful.
After all, the first batch of customers there were brought by Noriko Toyokawa.
Yesterday's revenge is like a thorn in my side.
This time, he will definitely not let the other party mess up again!
It's not just for the relationship between him and Xiangzi, but also for his big business of losing money!
The vehicle quickly stopped by the roadside, and the driver turned around and spoke softly.
"Boss, we're here."
"Okay, just wait for me at the door."
Lin Yi nodded, gave the driver some instructions, then opened the door and got out of the car.
The receptionist at the door took the initiative to come forward and guided Lin Yi while speaking.
"President Lin, Ms. Fengchuan is waiting for you in Tea Room No. 1."
Lin Yi nodded slightly, without stopping, and walked with brisk steps towards the location of the tea room in his memory.
After passing through an antique wooden outdoor corridor and turning several corners, Lin Yi arrived at the tea room inside Kuiqian Pavilion.
Because this area is far away from the streets, you can't hear the bustling city noise. Only the occasional clear bird calls make people feel relaxed and happy.
The fresh scent of wood mixed with the faint aroma of tea penetrated into Lin Yi's nose through the door.
He sniffed, then raised his right hand and knocked gently on the door.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Is that Lin Yi? Please come in." A calm female voice came from the tea room.
Lin Yi gently pushed open the door of the tea room, and a ray of sunlight shone through the blinds on the window and fell on Lin Yi.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, stepped in, and looked at Noriko Toyokawa who was sitting on a solid wooden chair.
Today, Noriko Toyokawa was not dressed formally like the last time they met. Instead, she was wearing a kimono with a floral pattern. Her blue hair, which was exactly the same as Shoko's, was tied up in a high bun, and paired with an exquisite headdress, she looked particularly dignified.
Lin Yi looked at the outfit that Toyokawa Noriko was wearing, and his heart sank slightly.
Wear clothes that match what you are doing. If Jiko came to cause trouble or question me, she would definitely not dress like this.
She was now wearing such traditional and formal clothes, and she asked me to meet her at Kuiqian Pavilion...
hiss!
Lin Yi suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
His mother-in-law wouldn't try to be soft, would she?
This was totally different from what he expected.
When Ji Zi saw Lin Yi coming in, she smiled faintly and greeted him softly, "Sit down."
Apart from the words, there was a barely perceptible hint of appreciation and satisfaction in Ji Zi's eyes as she looked at Lin Yi.
She picked up the teapot and poured Lin Yi a cup of tea with elegant movements.
Lin Yi sat down next to Toyokawa Noriko.
Jizi丨Small Square Table丨Lin Yi
He picked up the teacup, but did not drink it. Instead, he asked seriously, "You...what identity brought you here today?"
Noriko Toyokawa was slightly stunned. Although her attitude was a little gentler today, it was really surprising that Lin Yi spoke to her like this.
However, Lin Yi has achieved such great success at such a young age, so it’s okay for him to be a little arrogant.
Toyokawa Noriko smiled and asked with interest: "What do you think?"
Lin Yi picked up the teacup, blew on it, drank half of the tea, and put the teacup back down.
He said firmly: "Today I only regard you as Xiangzi's mother."
The heir to the Toyokawa family, the helmsman of the Toyokawa Group, these heavyweight identity labels are of no use in his eyes.
To him, you are just Xiangzi's mother, nothing more.
He will not make any concessions because of your other identities.
Noriko Toyokawa looked at the half tea left in the teacup, still with a smile on her face, but she sighed in her heart that young people are really different, they are full of passion.
"Lin Yi, so the last time you and I met here, you called me aunt because of Xiangzi, right?"
Noriko Toyokawa asked. At that time, she didn't understand much, but after finding her ex-husband and learning about Xiangzi's current life, looking back, things became clear.
Xiangzi and Lin Yi had already developed feelings for each other before Kuiqian Pavilion opened.
But this is not entirely a bad thing. At least it shows that Lin Yi's emotional intelligence is actually fine. He knows everything he should know, but he is unwilling to do it because of his personality.
Lin Yi does have the capital.
"Yes, that's right." Lin Yi admitted it frankly.
“In that case…” Seeing Lin Yi was so straightforward, Toyokawa Noriko did not continue to argue and said directly: “Lin Yi, you can marry into my family.”
"Shoko is the heiress of the Toyokawa family. Even if she leaves for a short time now, she will come back sooner or later. If you want to be with Shoko, you can only marry into her family."
"And Toyokawa Itsuki is a good name, isn't it? Even the Toyokawa family will be handed over to you in the future. You should have heard of the son-in-law adoption system."
The smile on Noriko Toyokawa's face gradually disappeared and she became serious.
If Xiangzi was with an uneducated gangster, she would definitely be very angry, but if Xiangzi was with Lin Yi, she would only think that Xiangzi had good taste.
After all, Lin Yi's excellence is impeccable. Whether it is his age, physical condition, or ability, he is absolutely one in a million.
If she didn't have the support of the Toyokawa family, Jiko believed that even she would not be as good as Lin Yi at that time.
It would naturally be a great thing if such an outstanding young man like Lin Yi could marry into the Toyokawa family.
After all, compared to women, it is undoubtedly more appropriate for men to be the head of the family, and this way Xiangzi can also be more relaxed and happy.
Is that really the case?
Lin Yi sighed inwardly, then shook his head and said, "Excuse me for refusing, but it is impossible for me to marry into the family."
"Why?" Toyokawa Noriko asked, and then calmly analyzed: "Being married into the family will not do you any harm except for some loss of reputation."
"You can live happily with Xiangzi, and you can also mobilize the resources of the Toyokawa family and give full play to your business talent."
Noriko Toyokawa explained the pros and cons to Lin Yi.
She had never thought of the possibility that Lin Yi would refuse. Lin Yi was indeed very powerful now, but in front of the Toyokawa family, he was still insignificant.
This is an opportunity for Lin Yi to reach great heights overnight.
This is not something like his ex-husband has no voice or say, but an opportunity to completely control the Toyokawa family!
“Why should I refuse…”
Lin Yi raised a finger.
"First, have you asked Xiangzi what he thinks? Does Xiangzi really want to inherit what you consider to be a popular position?"
Noriko Toyokawa was speechless for a moment. Shoko was the first heir of the Toyokawa family and was also very capable. Wasn't it natural for her to come back and inherit the family business in the future?
It has been like this for many years.
"Second." Lin Yi raised two fingers and continued, "You don't think the Toyokawa family is that attractive to me, do you?"
Lin Yi's goal is to lose money, so he doesn't actually think that his business empire will be able to surpass the Toyokawa family one day.
But who doesn’t know how to brag?
Lin Yi said confidently: "I am only 20 years old this year. I still have a long life ahead of me and there are still many things to do. Who can predict what will happen in the future?"
Noriko Toyokawa looked at Lin Yi's high-spirited appearance, without sighing or mocking him, but nodded.
She said earnestly: "There is nothing wrong with these words. I admit that Lin Yi, you are indeed very powerful. But you have to know that it is impossible for people to always be smooth sailing, and the upper limit is not so easy to break through."
Lin Yi's experience was indeed a bit too smooth. So far, he had basically not experienced any setbacks, which led him to completely underestimate the cruelty of reality and the strength of the Toyokawa family.
Noriko Toyokawa has seen too many examples like this.
It is common to be a legend for a moment, but it is impossible to be a legend for a lifetime.
The world is no longer the wild and wild era of the past. The ecological niches of various industries have become stable. Lin Yi can emerge as a dark horse in a certain field, but does he want to maintain his success?
Absolutely impossible!
Lin Yi remained unmoved: "Maybe you are right, but so what? Our relationship is between Xiangzi and I, and has nothing to do with the Toyokawa family."
Lin Yi's attitude changed from rational to emotional, becoming somewhat sharp.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "This is the consensus between Xiangzi and I."
After saying that, Lin Yi looked at Toyokawa Noriko without any hesitation, waiting for her reply.
He has begun to act like a rogue on purpose.
I must be with Xiangzi, but there is absolutely no way I would marry into the Toyokawa family, or even tie Xiangzi to the chariot for this.
Come on, I'm already acting like a rogue, just do it to me!
Please whip me hard in business, mother-in-law!
So stubborn...
Looking at Lin Yi's steadfast look in front of her, Noriko Toyokawa felt as if she had returned to more than four months ago.
At that time, when her ex-husband left the Toyokawa family, Xiangzi treated her like this.
The two people really look alike.
They are both excellent and stubborn...
Perhaps it is for this reason that two people can be together.
"Okay, I understand." Toyokawa Noriko agreed softly.
Lin Yi was completely confused at this time. You understand...what do you understand?
My dear mother-in-law, are you just going to give in like this?
Noriko Toyokawa looked at Lin Yi's surprised expression and couldn't help but smile.
"Are you surprised?" Noriko asked back, "You don't think that if you don't agree, I will use my power to coerce you and use the resources of the Toyokawa family to target you, right?"
Is not it?
Lin Yi felt that there seemed to be something wrong with his cognition.
"Lin Yi, you are a student of Dongda University. Have you watched too many melodramatic soap operas?" Toyokawa Noriko exclaimed.
