Chapter 156 Birthday Party (3)

To be honest, Fujii Itsuki is not quite used to the current atmosphere.

Why?
Maybe I felt some class differences.

A watch on their wrist is worth ten cars.

Some people may say, aren’t these just the rich second generation, the playboys from wealthy families?

However, Fujii Itsuki, who had experienced the family education of the Matsumae family, did not completely agree with this.

There are prodigal sons.

But most of these people have received elite education since childhood, and their talents and insights are far superior to those of ordinary children.

This is what spring is like.

But even if the other person is excellent, Xinchun is unwilling to marry someone she is not familiar with.

Perhaps because he knew that this birthday ball was the party for choosing a son-in-law for Xinchun, Fujii Itsuki, as her senior, felt a little sorry for her.

So, he chose to take the initiative to step forward and wish Matsumae Shinharu a happy birthday.

But Fujii Itsuki didn't expect that when he went up, Xinchun stared at him for a while and then stretched out a hand.

'What does it mean? ’

Fujii Itsuki thought that Xinchun wanted to help her stand up, but she didn't expect it to be a "kiss on the hand".

Fujii Itsuki was not clear about the specific meaning of the hand-kissing gift.

Just based on impression
It seems to be a Western etiquette used to show respect for ladies.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Fujii Itsuki kissed the back of his junior sister's hand from a distance.

At this moment, he didn't pay any attention to the atmosphere in the banquet after he had saluted.

Fujii Itsuki let go of her junior sister's hand, and when she looked up again, the little princess of the Matsumae family's face became red and cute.

Ok?
Xinchun girl, why are you blushing?
This isn't an engagement ring for you.

"Mr. Fujii, should I be nicer to you now that I'm here and call you brother?" Matsumae Shinharu lowered her voice.

“Considering the people around me, it is.”

"Brother, did you enjoy your meal here tonight? Did you neglect me or anything?"

"That's not the case," Fujii Itsuki responded, and immediately smiled and congratulated him with the words he had prepared in advance, "Also, happy birthday, Kokoharu."

"Yes," Matsumae Shinchun avoided her eyes, "Thank you."

Fujii Itsuki deliberately glanced at Matsumae Yoshiko who was standing at the other end.

He knew that this birthday party was more than just a birthday party for Xinchun.

So he took the little princess's hand and said:
"Today is the birthday of the little birthday girl. I think the little birthday girl should not think about so many trivial matters. Being happy is the most important thing. Just ignore some things you don't want to do. I'm sure your family won't say anything to you today."

Matsumae Shinharu could tell there was something else behind Mr. Fujii's words.

He was hinting that he should not pay too much attention to the family's arrangements and should follow his heart.

Being happy is being happy.

Being unhappy is being unhappy.

Matsumae Shinharu was really happy.

So many people just now were like beautifully dressed male peacocks, showing themselves how beautiful and noble they were.

Only Brother Fujii was actually wishing himself a happy birthday.

Is this what makes my brother different?
Matsumae Shinchun felt that she wanted to marry him at this time.

I can even fantasize about my wedding night.

That night, I probably leaned my bare shoulders on my senior brother's chest, and then bathed with him in the misty hot spring?
At that time, the two people who were honest with each other must have blushed and looked shy, right?
"Thank you for your congratulations, brother." Matsumae Shinchun placed her other hand on the back of his hand.

"It's okay, Xinchun, as long as you are happy."

However, Fujii Itsuki suddenly noticed that the atmosphere of the banquet was a bit strange.

Why is everyone looking at me?
"Ah, right."

"What?" Fujii Itsuki's attention returned to the little princess's face, and he was still holding the little princess's hand.

"There will be a dance party later. I wonder if my brother would be so kind as to agree to dance with Xinchun?"

".Ballroom dancing?"

"Yes, it doesn't matter if you can't do it. Xinchun can go slower and teach you while dancing."

“Yes, I will.”

Matsumae Shinchun became sad, "Brother has his own reasons, it's okay if he doesn't agree. But please don't refuse."

I can’t say I have any difficulties.

But I am only suitable to dance with Muzi, right?
Or she taught herself this on purpose.

"Okay, Xinchun."

At this time, Yoshiko Matsumae came over and said that she would take her niece to visit the guests one by one.

Matsumae Shinchun had no choice but to say to Fujii Itsuki:
"How about answering Xinchun later?"

"Row."

Before Matsumae Shinharu could finish her words, she was taken away by Matsumae Yoshiko to meet the guests.

Before leaving, the child bowed to Fujii Itsuki.

This is true.
Fujii Itsuki is still thinking about whether to agree to Xinchun

It seems that agreeing to dance with her is helping her out, right?

She certainly didn't want to dance with those strange young men, but due to family ties, she certainly couldn't refuse some of them.

Then agree to Xinchun?

Fujii Itsuki thought about these questions and walked back to Akai Muzi.

*
"Chitose, Chitose?"

a bolt from the blue.

The scene just now was like a bolt from the blue.

Chitose Yangkui was a little slow to react, so much so that only after Akai Muzi called her several times did she turn to face her.

Akai Muzi called a waiter to help pick up the lobster that Chitose dropped on the ground, and then looked at the girl suspiciously:
"What's wrong with you?"

".You saw it just now! Brother Shu kissed the back of Xinchun's hand from a distance!"

"Kissing the back of my hand from a distance? Are you jealous?" Akai Muzi asked with a smile.

"Say it! What are you talking about! I am not the same person I was before. I am not so stingy now. I am shocked because... because... because of this!"

Chitose Yangkui hurriedly took out her cell phone.

She immediately showed Akai Muzi what she had talked about with Rinka Hiiragi.

Akai Muzi looked at it for a long time.

Only then did I understand what was going on.

She smiled.

"You you you you, what are you laughing at!"

“It looks like a made-up story.”

"No way! Rinka wouldn't lie to me!"

"I don't even know what this unspoken rule is, how did Hiiragi know about it?"

"Rinka's father said so!"

Akai Muzi still didn't believe it. She sat next to Yang Kui Chitose and comforted the girl first, then said to her:

"Yes, Shu is back, why don't you just ask him?"

"Brother Tree?"

At this time, Fujii Itsuki returned to the two of them.

At this moment, he was wondering why some people at the banquet were looking at him for no apparent reason.

These eyes seemed to want to eat me alive.
Weird bluffing.

"Brother Tree! Brother Tree!"

As soon as Fujii Itsuki approached, the girl hurriedly ran over.

"What are you doing? Why are you so flustered?"

"You just went to say hello to Xinchun--!"

Fujii Itsuki knew, "I kissed the back of her hand? This is a hand kiss. Don't worry, it was from a distance, so I didn't kiss her."

"This girl is not worried about this." Akai Muzi teased.

"what is that?"

"It's this! It's this! Look at this!"

Chitose Yang Kui was so anxious that she was incoherent. Seeing that Fujii Itsuki was full of confusion, she showed him the chat history between herself and Rinka again.

"What is this?"

What's this?
Unspoken rules?
When Matsumae Shinharu extends his hand to the guest, does that mean that this person is the Matsumae family's designated son-in-law?
Fujii Itsuki laughed out loud:
"This is too ridiculous. Don't worry! Don't worry!" "Really?" Yang Kui Chitose was stunned when she saw Brother Shu smiling like that.

At this moment, she was a little unsure whether she should believe the truth of these words.

"Of course. Why would they choose a high school teacher like me who has no reputation or status instead of choosing one from among so many outstanding families?"

"That's right, hahaha~"

Akai Muzi added: "Chitose is worrying too much."

Fujii Itsuki comforts Chitose Yangkui.

Yang Kui Chitose quickly calmed down and chose to believe Brother Shu.

that's true.

How could the Matsumae family, such a big family, look down on Brother Shu?

Yang Kui Qiansui saw Brother Shu sitting on the sofa and starting to eat cantaloupe, so she cheered up and picked up a big lobster to eat.

However, she hadn’t even taken two bites of the lobster.

A stranger came up to say hello.

I'm here to find Brother Tree.

"Hello, Mr. Fujii. I am the president of Ishikari Fisheries."

"Oh," Fujii Itsuki was still a little confused, and immediately stood up and shook hands, "Hello, hello."

Yang Kui Chitose looked completely confused.

Brother Shu doesn’t even know this person?

What are you here to see Brother Tree for?
Brother Shu started exchanging pleasantries with the visitor, and the visitor did come to get to know Brother Shu, and after a few words, he tactfully left on his own initiative.

Brother Shu didn't take it seriously.

Yang Kui Chitose was just about to go up and ask Brother Shu what was going on.

But just as Brother Shu was about to sit down, another president came.

This person sells camping products in Hokkaido, and his products are selling well across the country.

Another president?!

Yang Kui Chitose felt more and more that something was wrong, so she planned to go up and ask again.

But after the president of the camping products company left, Brother Shu still didn't sit down, so another one came. This time he was from the glass factory, specializing in glass handicrafts.

As one person leaves, another comes.

And then one followed another.

Yang Kui Chitose was stunned.

When did Brother Shu become so connected?

So many big bosses come to see our brother Shu.

Could it be that everything Rinka said is true?!

Chitose Yangkui quickly looked at Akai Muzi beside her.

Akai Muzi also seemed to be in doubt at this time, and said:
“Something is wrong.”

At this time, Fujii Itsuki seized the opportunity and found a restaurant owner and asked him indirectly how he knew him.

"Ah? Mr. Fujii, you don't know?"

"Clear what?"

"Mr. Fujii, how could you not know? Please don't make fun of me."

"How could I be joking? You need to explain things to me clearly."

Chitose Yangkui saw that Brother Shu had not finished asking his question yet, so Matsumae Yoshiko and Matsumae Shinharu came over.

This Grand Palace Master.
Xinchunjiang's aunt is a serious person with a very solemn expression.

"Mr. Fujii."

"Ms. Matsumae, you have to explain to me why so many people come to see me."

"terribly sorry."

"Feel sorry?"

"If we don't do this today, Xinchun will be in trouble."

"."

Fujii Itsuki stared at Matsumae Yoshiko's face for half a second, and then nodded as if he understood something. "Okay, I understand."

Brother Shu understood, but Yang Kui Chitose didn’t!
She was now full of doubts.

Does this really count as the family behind Xinchunjiang wanting to make her brother a son-in-law?

Chitose Yangkui couldn't bear her curiosity any longer. When she saw Brother Shu was still talking to Matsumae Yoshiko, she walked up and grabbed Matsumae Shinharu's arm.

"Chi-Chien-sui?"

Yang Kui Chitose looked a little unhappy at this moment, "How about Kokoro-chan and I go talk outside the banquet?"

"Let's go outside."

"Aunt, Qiansui and I are going to talk somewhere else."

"Well, let's go."

Matsumae Yoshiko and Matsumae Shinharu looked at each other and decided to let him go.

Chitose Yangkui seized the opportunity and quickly pulled Shinharu Matsumae to a corner of the garden.

Without saying anything, she showed her best friend the conversation between her and Rinka and asked:

"Xinchun, what's going on?"

"This"

"Xinchun-chan?" When Yang Kui Chitose saw Matsumae Xinchun's evasive look, her face instantly darkened.

"Qian, Qiansui, please listen to my explanation first."

"Is everything Rinka said above false?"

"it is true."

"What's the explanation for this?"

"My family does have this idea. Didn't Chitose know something about it during the Jade Fox Festival? Actually, my aunt's idea hasn't changed much. She has always felt that Mr. Fujii is a very suitable candidate. Mr. Fujii has a clean background, is talented, and is loyal to people."

Matsumae Shinharu felt a little embarrassed to face her good friend Chitose Haruki. She was hesitating when she said these words, but unexpectedly, Chitose Haruki directly held her hand.

"Chitose?"

Yang Kui Chitose's face was full of determination.

"Xinchun-chan, we are good friends, right?"

"Yeah, sure."

"Best best friends, right?"

"Correct."

"Then do you think it is right for your family to arrange a marriage for you?"

Matsumae Shinchun thought of Fujii Itsuki's words and whispered, "That's definitely not right. Teacher Fujii said that this is a kind of bondage tied to me."

"so."

"so?"

"So you have to resist fiercely, Kokoro-chan!"

".I..I can't resist my family."

“We must resist!”

"Everyone in this family is my blood relative, and I grew up in this family."

"You must resist! Xinchun-chan, think about it, do you want to be immersed in the arrangements made by your family forever?"

Matsumae Shinchun stared at her: "."

"Kokoharu-chan!" Yang Kui Chitose held her arms and looked at her firmly, "Answer me!"

".Based on what Mr. Fujii taught me, this shouldn't happen."

"It's Xinchun's own answer! Not Brother Shu's!" Yang Kui Chitose shook hard.

"."

"Xinchun!"

Matsumae Xinchun suddenly pushed Yang Kui Chitose away. The little princess turned her face away, full of apology, "Hold! I'm sorry! Chitose, I know you are right, but...but my family's arrangement, I can't resist"

"."

Yang Kui Chitose lowered her head. At this moment, she understood Xinchun's difficulties very well.

Because if she had to rebel against a big family on her own, she had no choice.

But why was the candidate chosen to be Brother Shu?
but
She suddenly had an idea.

It's just a temporary delaying tactic.
