Chapter 328 She's simply an angel
Meanwhile, at the Shijou residence, Shinomiya Seiryu was completely baffled! Why? Why couldn't he eat anything except water!
I feel nauseous just looking at those foods! Right now, the only thing I can put in my mouth is water...
At the dinner table, no one paid any attention to this guy who only drank water and didn't eat. Was he looking down on the Shijo family? He came seeking support, yet he looked down on their cooking.
The Shinomiya family is truly arrogant... But looking at Shinomiya Un'taka, although his methods are unpleasant, he has really changed a lot recently.
If things continue like this... the Shinomiya family might be taken over by Shinomiya Un'taka without even needing to split up!
How can the Shijo family profit from this?!
The Shijo family's original plan was to help the weaker of the two, because to muddy the waters of the Shinomiya family, they needed to make the Shinomiya heirs evenly matched! Then they would fight to the death!
But now, the guy who was originally inclined to Shinomiya Seiryu is actually a fellow who won't even eat his food, which made the head of the Shijo family so angry that he almost kicked him out.
On the other hand, Shinomiya Un'taka never even considered that his enemy was his second brother, Seiryu, who was just a lackey who only followed behind his eldest brother. What was he putting on airs for? The real enemy has always been the Shijo family, okay!
It's true that Shijo is a branch of the Shinomiya family, and it's true that they need to recruit the largest shareholder! But the two families have never been truly united...
The direct confrontation between these two companies dates back decades to an era of rapid economic development, when the Shinomiya zaibatsu insisted on a self-serving strategy, prioritizing its own interests above all else.
However, the moderates of the Shinomiya family raised objections, arguing that the head family's selfish behavior was inhumane, leading to a fierce struggle between the two sides.
However, the moderate faction ultimately failed, and the moderate faction of the Shinomiya family was stripped of the Shinomiya surname by the head family in a manner that was almost exiled.
Thus, the Shijo Group was born. The fact that the head of the Shijo family at the time was able to develop the Shijo Group into the famous multinational corporation it is today, despite the suppression from Shinomiya, proves that the ability of the conservative faction is no less than that of the main family.
Thus... [There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests] Although the Shinomiya and Shijo families were still at odds with each other, they gradually became less hostile and chose to cooperate.
That's really impressive. The Shijo Group, having broken away from Japan which was controlled by the Shinomiya Zaibatsu, has managed to expand to its current scale in the West. I hear its market value is already approaching one trillion US dollars, soon reaching the same level as the Shinomiya family...
That good-for-nothing Shinomiya Seiryu actually thinks about taking over the Shijo family? What a brainless idiot.
In Shinomiya Un'taka's plan, unless an extraordinary force like Uchiha Ryo intervenes, the Shijou clan can only be courted and cooperated with; they must not be offended too much.
Perhaps the Shijo family is currently waiting for the head of the Shinomiya family to pass away, so they can watch a dramatic struggle among his three sons for the succession. Afterwards, they'll find a way to swallow the entire Shinomiya family!
After all, the two families are relatives. If all three heirs fail, the Shijo family can legally find an opportunity to seize the position of head of the family!
But! Shinomiya Un'taka absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen. Therefore, the Shijou family is currently focused on maintaining good relations.
Hopefully they won't be thinking about how to swallow up the Shinomiya family! But even if they were, what methods could they use? The older generation's ideas are deeply rooted in both the Shinomiya and Shijo families, namely, passing the family business down to sons, not daughters.
Only the three of us have the right to inherit, and... Kaguya's husband.
If that's the case, then there's absolutely no chance of me losing, right? Uchiha Rin is on my side, and his two older brothers are one physically disabled and the other mentally disabled.
Hehe, just wait and see, Mr. Uchiha. It won't be long before I, Shinomiya Untaka, firmly establish myself as the successor!
Leaving aside the tense atmosphere at the Shijou family dinner, let's shift our focus to the leisurely Kaguya Shinomiya family mansion.
.......
After leaving the food street, Uchiha Ryo and Yukinoshita called Hayasaka Ai and Shinomiya Kaguya to help buy ingredients, and then called Chitanda at home to tell her to bring Hana to meet at the Shinomiya house that night.
"Shinomiya-kun, are the elementary school angel costumes I ordered ready yet?"
After learning that Xiaohua was going to perform in a stage play, Uchiha Ling generously took on all the expenses for costumes and props himself.
Anyway, it's all handled by the Shinomiya family. Custom-made clothes are much more exquisite than those bought or rented from clothing stores.
"Brother Ling, I'm all changed."
When Shirasaki Hana came out of the room, she had changed into an outfit similar to that of the White Nun Angel, and was wearing a halo headdress.
After circling around Uchiha Ryo, he picked up a cute, small bow and arrow shaped like a pink heart from the table.
She really is an angel! Uchiha Ryo thought to herself.
Chitanda Eru clasped her hands together. "So cute... Hana, what's the main plot of your stage play?"
"Um... I am an angel with a bow and arrow of love. I shot an arrow into the mortal world and hit the male protagonist (Hinata Hoshino). After that, I will descend to her side. That's roughly the story."
Hayasaka Ai, munching on the three-colored dumplings that Uchiha Ryo had brought her, rested her chin on her hand and said, "What a cliché story..."
Yukinoshita gently rubbed Hana's soft cheeks. "After all, it's a children's stage play. Speaking of which, shouldn't we have a stage play for the Honinbo Festival too?"
"I remember it's based on 'The Legend of Honesty,' and the drama club is already rehearsing." As the vice president, Kaguya Shinomiya knew more details.
Uchiha Ryo chuckled. "Why should an elementary school play compare to our high school play... By the way, Hana, have you memorized all your lines? As the lead, you can't forget your lines at crucial moments."
"Don't worry, brother, I've written it all down. Just watch our performance from the audience tomorrow! And don't forget the big pudding after it's over!"
"Okay, okay, as long as your performance goes well, your brother will make a pudding as tall as you!"
Shirasaki Hana's eyes gradually sparkled as she imagined a giant pudding in front of her, as tall as herself and several times thicker than her waist!
The puddings usually sold in supermarkets are only about the size of a small bowl, and Xiaohua feels like she could eat three in one go and still not have enough. Now she can finally eat as much pudding as she wants!
"By the way... what are your plans for the two days of the cultural festival, Ling-kun? Or rather... how do you want to spend your time?"
The moment Hayasaka Ai asked her question, the room fell silent. Everyone except Shirasaki Hana could tell that Hayasaka Ai wasn't asking "how to shop," but rather "who to shop with?"
After all, the cultural festival lasts for two days. If Uchiha Ryo dared to say one person per day, he would definitely be despised by everyone in Shuchiin. So only one person can be chosen!
So this person is.....
Hayasaka Ai looked serious, Chitanda looked expectant, Yukinoshita remained unmoved, and Shinomiya Kaguya, who was watching from the sidelines, was a little envious.
"Brother, come with me to our school's cultural festival tomorrow. Well then, I'll go with you to your school's cultural festival!" Shirasaki Hana broke the ice!
Uchiha Ryo ruffled Shirasaki Hana's hair. "Alright, then Hana will keep me company."
