Congratulations, Sushi, you have been optimized by me.

But you may have misunderstood Xiao Rencai, she is not as bad as you think~"

"Yeah."

"By the way, I have a question for you." Chihiro Tsuzuki said deliberately provocatively, "Who is better, you or Xiangzi? I originally wanted Xiangzi to teach me, but she refused.

I later heard that you could teach me and I mentioned it to her. Guess what she said?"

The simple tsundere Xiaozhi had never seen such a move before, so he came up to her curiously and asked, "What did Toyokawa Shoko say?"

"She said I might as well teach myself."

"Too much!" Xiaozhi stamped his feet angrily, shaking the bow on his head again and again. "Toyokawa Shoko is just a defeated opponent of mine! I can definitely teach you a lesson, and then let her see that there is still a clear gap between her and me!"

"If you say that, I feel relieved."

You great enemy Xiaozhi, please use all your strength to teach me, a good student who is eager to learn.

Chapter 198 Xiangzi: What does your meeting with your grandfather have to do with me? (2/2)

The next day, when Shoko Toyokawa arrived at school early in the morning, she felt that many things were wrong.

In the past, she was a invisible person in the class. Although her academic performance was very good, not many people would talk to her for class notes, and not many people would be extremely attentive to her just because of her good academic performance.

But today, as soon as she walked into the classroom, the students around her looked at her with strange eyes, and several girls walked straight up to her. When they spoke, they mentioned the same name, which was... Chihiro Tsuzuki.

Oh no, I didn't deny it directly yesterday, and now the fact that I am Chihiro's sister seems to have become a fact.

Even if I were to argue back, I would be labeled a "troublesome" sister.

Damn Chihiro Tsuzuki, I, Toyokawa Shoko, will never coexist with you!

With this thought in mind, Xiangzi put down his bag and came to his seat. Before he sat down completely, he gave the shameless guy a "murderous" look.

"Are you playing the role of Yuqiu's number one killer? Do you think I dare to look you in the eye?"

"..."

Don’t be angry, don’t be angry…if you get sick from anger, no one can replace you in Mujica.

"Xiaoxiang, where did you go after school yesterday? I haven't seen you since I came back from the teacher's office~"

"It has nothing to do with you." Shoko Toyokawa rolled her eyes and sat down in her seat, not intending to pay any more attention to this boring guy.

Just like yesterday, Xiangzi still underestimated Chihiro's shamelessness.

Some people not only scratch your back with a pen, but even scratch your bra straps?! Can you please have some dignity? That innocent face of yours is truly wasted!

"Xiaoxiang, I found a piano teacher."

"……Oh."

"Aren't you curious about who it is?"

"..."

"You might know him."

"Just say what you want to say!" Toyokawa Shoko was really annoyed and couldn't stand it anymore. She strongly suspected that Chihiro Tsuzuki transferred to their class just to torture her.

"It's Ebitsuka Satoshi."

"Ebitsuka Satoshi?"

Toyokawa Shoko frowned, not realizing for a moment who Chihiro Tsuzuki was talking about. However, when she pondered over this familiar name, she immediately remembered the girl who had constantly competed with her in piano competitions in Japan during her elementary and junior high school years.

But...what does this have to do with her? Although she and Ebizuka Satoshi are strong rivals, they have hardly spoken to each other seriously, right?

But there was one thing that made Xiangzi very curious, that was how Chihiro Tsuzuki found this person, and the other party also specifically mentioned this name in front of him.

...There is only one possibility.

It was her grandfather who told Chihiro about her relationship with Ebizuka Satoshi, and deliberately wanted to use this good girl to enlighten her, and warn her that if she wanted to develop well in the piano career, she should listen to her family.

There is really no peace for a moment. Even at this time, Chihiro has to come over and hit her... Thinking of this, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help but frowned.

The unpleasant emotions in my heart piled up together and naturally turned into unreasonable complaints:

"Haha, it's better for you to learn on your own than to learn from her."

"...Xiao Xiang."

"what happened?"

"Sometimes I feel like I'm really your biological sister. You're so easy to understand in some ways."

"……baffling!"

After saying this, Toyokawa Shoko angrily ignored Tsuzuki Chihiro behind her. However, what surprised her was that during the morning classes and lunch break, this Miss Tsuzuki didn't seem to have any intention of disturbing her again.

Just when I came back from lunch break and was preparing for class, this grandfather's "running dog" passed by my seat and suddenly looked at me with a very intriguing look.

But for Xiangzi, who only had the mujica career in her mind, after just a few minutes, Chihiro Tsuzuki's little movements and little looks were forgotten by her.

While trying to take notes in class, she also used the time when she didn't have to study too seriously to think about Mujica's performance this Sunday.

Logically speaking, the members of their band don’t know each other well enough. The relationship between her, Chuhua and Mu is fine, but the other two people make her a little difficult to deal with.

But no matter how difficult it is, for Xiangzi, such a band plan is not a group that is played by children. They cannot consider going on stage officially after they are fully prepared.

On the one hand, the contracts signed between the company controlled by her grandfather and these people were all short-term contracts of one year; on the other hand, the agreement she made with her grandfather was only for less than a year, which was only half a year in total.

Although she does not need to make her mujica perfect within half a year and to a level that no one in the industry can match, the agreed rule is that she must make her mujica flourish within half a year and at least bring considerable benefits to the company.

If something happens in the middle that requires disbanding, or if no one is paying... everything must be stopped.

At that time, I would have to return home and become Toyokawa Sadaharu's "daughter".

At first, Xiangzi couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but when she asked the legal sister yesterday, she realized that the reason her grandfather did this was to make her the direct heir of Toyokawa Group.

In this way, she can skip her father directly, which not only prevents the family business from falling into her father's hands, but also reduces the payment of inheritance tax. She can preserve as much of the family as possible and finally hand it over to her.

Toyokawa Shoko is not an unreasonable person. She knows that her grandfather has his own considerations for doing this, and he really recognizes her as his granddaughter. But Shoko still cannot accept her grandfather's "heartless" behavior of completely abandoning her father.

And if she agreed, wouldn't that be tantamount to betraying her father and abandoning him completely with her own hands?

She didn't want things to turn out like this...

The bell for the last class in the afternoon rang. When Shoko Toyokawa heard the sound, she immediately stood up and prepared to go straight to the company.

But before she could pack up and leave, she was stopped by the annoying Chihiro Tsuzuki again.

"What do you want to do again?"

Shoko Toyokawa has tried her best to tolerate Chihiro Tsuzuki's harassment at school, but her patience is limited after all.

Although Chihiro didn't bother her much during the day, except for the time when she disappeared for a while at noon and came back with a strange look on her face, she didn't bother her much at other times.

"Nothing~" Chihiro Tsuzuki still had that annoying smile on her face. "I just wanted to tell my good sister that I'm going to see my "grandfather" later. Do you want to come with me?"

"What's the relationship between you and your grandpa? Are you sick?"

"You really don't want to go?"

"Don't go!"

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. The reason you're so angry is mainly because I, your sister's 'grandfather'..."

Isn’t that the grandfather of your stinky sister?

Chapter 199: Toyokawa Sadaharu's Big Hand (1/2)

"Is this Xiaoxiang's home? Tsk tsk... they are indeed a wealthy family."

Getting out of the black Maybach luxury car, according to the information given by Xiangzi's grandfather, the luxurious villa located right in front of Chihiro Tsuzuki is Xiaoxiang's hometown where he has lived for more than ten years.

In fact, when Chihiro received the call from Mr. Toyokawa at noon, she was a little surprised. What surprised her most was the old man Toyokawa's enthusiastic attitude on the phone and the mention of his grandmother and the relationship between him and his friend.

So... Xiaoxiang's grandfather specifically asked to meet him, and to meet him at home. What exactly did he want to say to him?

It is most likely related to Xiaoxiang's matter.

"Ms. Tsuzuki, please come with me."

It was unknown whether the man in the black suit was a butler or a secretary. Chihiro only knew that he treated her with great respect when he walked out of the villa.

In such an occasion, Chihiro naturally could not treat other girls of her age with disrespect. Having received a lot of traditional etiquette education since childhood, she placed her hands in front of her and bowed slightly, like a noble lady.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"You're welcome." The man smiled faintly without giving any further explanation.

The few of them entered from the villa entrance, crossed the courtyard outside, and finally came to the large living room inside the Fengchuan mansion used for receiving guests.

The tea and snacks seemed to have been prepared long ago. After Chihiro Tsuzuki smoothed out Yugaoka's school uniform skirt and sat on the sofa, an older maid came up to her with a tray.

Shortly afterwards, a kind old man appeared, with a benevolent face, which was somewhat different from the image of the head of the family that Chihiro had imagined.

"No wonder Shichuan always brags to me about how beautiful and adorable her granddaughter is. Now that I've seen her, I finally understand. Shichuan really does have a wonderful granddaughter."

"Ah... Grandpa, you're too kind."

Chihiro Tsuzuki felt uncomfortable all over. Although she had seen too many people and words praising her beauty, the special identity of the person in front of her still made her feel complicated.

You have to know that this person is the current helmsman of the Toyokawa Group. If he is really as "good-tempered" as he appears to be now, it would definitely be impossible for such a large business group to continue running.

She reasonably suspected that the old man had been wanting her to do something for his granddaughter since she entered the door.

And Chihiro Tsuzuki's guess was indeed correct. After more than 10 minutes of mutual courtesy, and after Chihiro had finished talking about some of the daily matters she could say, the old man picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and made it clear that he was going to get to the core of today's topic.

"Chihiro, you've known my Xiaoxiang for about a month now, right? What do you think of her?"

"Xiaoxiang is a very serious and hardworking person."

"Haha... Chihiro, you don't have to smooth things over for that kid. I actually know you guys had a fight. She had a conflict with me a while ago, and she came to ask me if I deliberately asked you to be her lobbyist and persuade her to come back home."

"So this is ah."

You know all this and you still ask this on purpose. You must be harboring a lot of bad intentions.

With an old man like him, it’s no wonder that Xiaoxiang has such a twisted personality.

"Grandpa Fengchuan, you asked me to come here because you want me to 'help' Xiaoxiang, right? If there is anything I can do, I will do my best."

"Haha, grandpa likes your warm-hearted personality, Chihiro."

Warmhearted? Not necessarily.

She just wanted to seek justice for her little maid, otherwise she would be very upset if she saw the little maid frowning every day thinking about the past.

"Actually, I, Grandpa, am not opposed to Xiaoxiang's wish..."

Here it comes, starting with the classic "It's for your own good".

While Chihiro Tsuzuki was trying hard to hold back her laughter, Toyokawa Sadaharu spoke in a gentle voice about why he had called Chihiro here today, "You've also met Xiaoxiang's father, so let me be frank...his current performance is really disappointing.

But I am not a heartless person. I will give him some chances. As long as he can change his current decadence and fulfill his due obligations like a qualified adult and a qualified father, I will not make things difficult for him.

But what he does is his decision. I can't let my precious granddaughter delay herself because of him. Is it reasonable for a grown-up girl to go out and work part-time every day just to take care of such an irresponsible father?"

"It's really not good."

Chihiro Tsuzuki nodded in agreement with what Lao Deng said. After all, she was just an outsider, and it would be inappropriate for her to express her personal opinions casually in this situation.

"Xiaoxiang wants to pursue her dream now, and I gave her the opportunity. Now she's working on her commercial band every day after school.

But what can she, a student, understand? I also want to take this opportunity to let her know some facts and let her know that she is still just a 16-year-old child."

Chihiro Tsuzuki didn't respond because she both agreed and disagreed with what was said.

Without the support of his family, it would be almost impossible for Xiaoxiang to form the commercial band that Mr. Fengchuan had just mentioned to him.

But on the other hand, the old man's starting point is actually a bit forced. He doesn't believe that his granddaughter can do it well at all. Not only does he not believe it, but now he seems to want him to help make things difficult for her.

How could she miss this kind of thing?

Of course, Chihiro Tsuzuki didn't really want to sell out Xiaoxiang, the classmate who used to sleep in her arms but now turned against her and refused to acknowledge her as his "mother".

She felt that even if she didn't agree, Lao Deng would continue to look for someone else.

Moreover, if I do this kind of thing myself, I can more or less get involved in some transactions. On the one hand, I can learn about Xiaoxiang's weaknesses through Lao Deng's intelligence network and take good control of this hateful blue-haired hedgehog.

On the other hand, she can also help the other party at the right time. After all... Xiaoxiang is not only Su Shi's former good friend, but also Chihiro's "good friend".

It would be best to let her take care of bullying Xiaoxiang.
