Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Shinomiya Family's Inherited Love Brain

Kyoto.

The main residence of the Shinomiya family is located at the foot of the mountain, covering a vast area, with walls that stretch like a city.

Zhang Yang stood in front of the entrance hall and looked up at the mansion.

"It's more dilapidated than I expected."

Shinomiya Hikari stood beside him, dressed in a crisp kimono, his bald head gleaming in the sunlight: "This mansion is 120 years old and has been repaired throughout the ages, but my father liked the feel of old things, so it was never renovated."

No wonder.

Zhang Yang strode into the entryway.

The corridor was long, with a wall lamp every three steps, the dim light casting long shadows.

Kaguya Shinomiya walked half a step ahead of him, her steps upright and her back very straight.

The tea room in the main house is located at the deepest part of the mansion.

Before pushing open the door, Shinomiya Hikari turned around and said, "My father is not in good health. I hope you don't mind."

"do not mind."

The curtain was pulled open.

The room was very large, with as many as thirty stacks of floorboards.

But the room was not furnished with much else: a low table, a bookshelf, and a floor-to-ceiling window facing the courtyard.

There was a bed by the window.

An old man was lying on it.

Sigong Yan'an.

Commander-in-Chief of the Shinomiya Group.

The head of one of Japan's four major zaibatsu (financial conglomerates).

Known as the "Monster of the Showa Era," he was able to seize the historical opportunities of the postwar era and build such a large conglomerate; of course, he was a monster.

But at this moment, he looks no different from an ordinary elderly man.

Her skin was loose, her eyes were sunken, her cheekbones were high and prominent, and an IV line extended from under the blankets, connecting to the medical equipment at the head of the bed.

His fingers were as thin and withered as dry twigs.

Only his eyes still retained a glimmer of light.

"coming."

The old man's voice was a little hoarse, but still quite clear.

"I don't have much time left, do I?"

Zhang Yang did not deny it: "Compared to others, you can still live for two more years, thanks to modern medical technology."

Shinomiya Huangguang's brow twitched.

Kaguya paused for a moment.

Shinomiya Gan'an smiled slightly: "Two years...that's a bit longer than I expected."

"I've heard about you. You can melt an entire building with one punch and you can teleport."

"To be honest, when I was young, I wondered if gods really existed, but then I stopped believing. I never thought that I would find out that these things were real when I was about to die."

"There really are gods and ghosts in this world."

Zhang Yang simply said, "I am not a god."

“Same.” Shinomiya Gan’an said calmly, “Even the temperature at the core of a nuclear explosion cannot directly melt reinforced concrete buildings, but you can. You are more powerful than a nuclear bomb.”

"You may not know this, but the West has already taken control of some of your old acquaintances, and it probably won't be long before they come after you."

"However, they still have some sense of shame over there, so I'm afraid they can't 'sleep with beauties on their laps and wield power over the world when they're awake'... Compared to material enjoyment, things are still better here."

Shinomiya Yan'an straightened up and looked at Zhang Yang: "So, do you want to stay here?"

Zhang Yang simply asked, "What can you give me?"

Shinomiya Gan'an replied, "Money, resources, anything you want, the Shinomiya family can give you."

Zhang Yang pointed to Kaguya Shinomiya in the corner: "Okay, let her be a member of my harem."

The tea room fell silent for a moment.

Shinomiya Hikari's expression froze.

Kaguya Shinomiya lowered her fingers from half her face, revealing her slightly widened eyes.

Shinomiya Gan'an's smile froze on her face. After a moment of silence, she coughed lightly and asked, "What...did you just say?"

“Harem,” Zhang Yang repeated, “I want her to be a member of my harem.”

Shinomiya Yanan: "..."

Huang Guang of the Four Palaces: "..."

Kaguya Shinomiya: "..."

An eerie silence fell over the room.

He has experienced business negotiations, political maneuvering, and even armed conflicts.

But this was the first time he had ever encountered someone saying to him, "Let your daughter be part of my harem."

His brain was working at lightning speed.

According to his plan, if Zhang Yang refused, he would then say that he was going to die and entrust his daughter to him.

Trading a daughter for the help of a powerful person, this deal isn't a bad one.

He had even prepared his lines: "I have only one wish, which is that you take good care of Kaguya..."

But to my surprise, the other party asked for it directly.

And they said it so confidently.

what is this?

Shinomiya Hikari couldn't help but say, "Do you know what status the Shinomiya family holds in Japan? Shinomiya Kaguya is the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya Group. You think you can just make her your lover with a single word?"

Zhang Yang glanced at him sideways: "The Japanese government has been trying to take action against the zaibatsu for years. Although you rose to power after the war and have no blood on your hands, you are too feudal."

"The Shijo family has built up their business in America and now they want to come back for revenge."

“If you die, the Shinomiya family will be hit hard. You are not too big to fail. After all, the three major financial groups combined are no match for the largest one.”

"In fact, the reason why the three chaebols were not dismantled is because the largest one cannot be touched. The only way to keep them in check is to prevent the entire country from being held hostage by a businessman."

Zhang Yang lowered his hand: "Your current situation is like sitting on a leaky boat. My only life preserver is me."

Shigu Yan'an remained silent, her eyes flickering.

Zhang Yang is right.

Trading Kaguya for the continuation of the Shinomiya family is an easy calculation to make.

He has been the head of the Shinomiya family for more than half a century, and he has sacrificed many people over the years.

He sacrificed his partners for the sake of acquisitions.

He sacrificed his competitors in his pursuit of expansion.

He sacrificed his own son for the sake of his family.

Now it's just a matter of sacrificing one more daughter.

What's there to hesitate about?

He looked up, about to speak, but then he saw Kaguya Shinomiya's face.

She knelt in the corner, her hands resting on her knees, her posture upright.

The expression on his face... was as if he had nothing at all.

There was no anger, no sadness, no fear.

It's like a Japanese doll that's been placed in a niche.

Exquisite, beautiful, but expressionless.

Shigu Yan'an opened her mouth.

He wanted to say "okay".

But he heard his own voice say—

"No."

Shi Gong Huang Guang suddenly stood up: "Father?! What did you say?!"

Shigu Yan'an didn't look at him: "I said no."

"Why?!" Shinomiya Hikari's voice was almost a shout. "Didn't we agree to win over Zhang Yang and stabilize the Shinomiya family? Now that he's agreed, why are you refusing?!"

The Four Palaces and the Hermitage remained silent.

Shinomiya Hiromitsu continued to roar, "What are the Shinomiya family's precepts? 'Never rely on others, always order others around! Never accept others, always seize benefits! Never fall in love with others, no exceptions!'"

"This is what you taught us!"

"But you yourself can't do it!"

His voice echoed in the empty room, somewhat deafening.

Shinomiya Hikari gritted his teeth: "You really like that woman that much? A woman from a nightclub!"

"I gave up my college romance and married my current wife at your command!"

"Are you going to destroy the entire Shinomiya family for a woman who is already dead?!"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Zhang Yang silently stepped back and pulled up Kaguya, who was still in shock and whose mind was blank.

call out!

A tiny, dark hole flashed in the air for a moment, engulfing the figures of the two people.

Chapter 99 Hayasaka Ai is also blonde

call out!

A tiny black hole flashed through the air of the waiting room, and Zhang Yang and Kaguya Shinomiya stepped out from the void.

Hayasaka Ai was sitting on the sofa scrolling through her phone when she heard the noise, looked up, and wasn't too surprised to see the two of them suddenly appear.

"Young Miss, are you done talking?"

Kaguya stood still, her black hair falling to her shoulders, her red eyes somewhat vacant.

Hayasaka Ai's smile faded slightly: "...Young Miss?"

Kaguya remained silent, as if she were nailed to the spot by something.

impossible.

The father refused.

That Shinomiya Yan'an.

The man who wouldn't even visit her when she was sick, the man who never said a word to her.

The man who treated her as a pawn, a tool, a decoration for the Shinomiya family... but never as a daughter.

They actually refused.

She certainly knew what Zhang Yang's conditions meant.

Become a member of his harem.

To put it bluntly, it's about using her body to ensure the continuation of the Shinomiya family.

The score is very clear.

It was so clear that there was absolutely no room for hesitation.
