Chapter 377 Father-in-Law’s Birthday (End)
After hearing this, Amami Madenori's first thought was not whether what he said was correct or not, but that this kid was such a shameless bastard.
Even though he didn't want to interfere with his two daughters' choices, even though his expression and tone were serious and sincere, it didn't stop him from feeling that this kid was deliberately acting rogue in front of him and abducting his two daughters.
angry?
I would indeed be angry, if it weren't for the fact that my two daughters, my wife, and my stepdaughter were watching, and they assigned this brat a few slaps.
What does "Uncle agree to my relationship with your two daughters" mean, and "I will bring your grandchildren to visit you in the future" mean?
If you say these bastard words to an ordinary father, why don't you send this brat to a mental hospital?
If it weren't for the fact that you, a brat like you, are so pleasing to the eye, if it wasn't for the fact that you, a brat like you, are still capable of taking care of Qijiu, if it wasn't for the fact that you, a brat like you, had indeed given Qijiu a better family, I--
Amami Maodori thought about it and sighed inwardly.
Qi Qi and Liu Li were really sad to have lost this brat.
The biggest difference between this guy and a gangster is that his words are true and his actions are also true.
What he just said is right.
Qiyue and Liuli do respect their father, even if they don't fully agree with their father's identity.
Qiyue and Liuli have become independent in life and are smart enough to have their own careers.
Their childhood experiences force them to be much more mature than their peers.
Even though they often still have some impulsive feelings belonging to their age group, they can indeed be responsible for their own actions.
Daughters are completely capable of living apart from their father.
At this point, my own opinions are actually completely unimportant.
This is not what they think, but the fact that they actually feel in their hearts.
Amami Madenori stared at the chopsticks in his hands and the food residue in his bowl. The aroma of the lobster meat cooked by that brat seemed to still linger in his mouth.
Tianhai Qimingyue found her father looking towards her.
"Qiyue, what do you think about this matter?"
As before, Amami Madenori's voice was also calm.
Tianhai Qimingyue didn't need to think too much to understand that there was considerable psychological activity behind his father's calm words.
Some are conflicts between the concepts of "daughters should have their own choices" and "daughters want to like the same man at the same time". Others are the dissatisfaction expressed in a father's heart when he finally reaches the day when his two daughters are about to leave him. Surrender and helplessness.
Even though he knew that he had owed most to his daughter for more than ten years, it was precisely because he regarded her as his own that he had such thoughts.
Tianhai Qimingyue gently put down the chopsticks in her hand. After calming down for a while, she looked at her father and replied:
"Dad, I am also very conflicted about this matter. The contradiction is that I don't want the feelings I can have to be divided, and at the same time I don't want my sister to be completely hurt. My sister likes to show off, and she never wants to be sad. Overly dependent on my sister. She always likes to treat herself as a sister in front of me and wants to take care of me.
"I admit the influence that my brother had on me when I was a child. It was also because of his appearance that I had my own life path and goals. Because of my brother, I had persistence for the first time and felt that I was being taken care of and being cared for for the first time. warmth of concern
"But in the more than ten years of my sister and I's growth, it's not like my sister never showed concern for me. She would leave an extra portion of what she likes to eat for me; she would take the initiative when I was not very happy. Make me a not-so-palatable food; my sister will also carry me to the infirmary when I am injured while running. She will also apply ointment and gauze on the injured area, and then imitate adults. Say 'Pain, pain, fly away~'."
"puff"
Sakakihara Suzu, who originally felt that the atmosphere was very serious, almost burst out laughing when she heard these words.
But she found that everyone was looking at her instantly, and she quickly covered her mouth.
"."
Sakakibara Suzu smiled apologetically, and then quickly said to Amami Nanamigetsu who was interrupted:
"Sorry, sorry, Sister Qiyue, please continue."
"."
Tianhai Qimingyue didn't say anything more. She looked away and looked at her father again, "Although my sister is a little naive, this can be regarded as a reflection of my sister's concern for me. Under her childish behavior, isn't the essence of her love for me?"
Tianhai Jiuliuli was a little embarrassed when her younger sister told her about the shameful past between the two sisters.
But she didn't expect that Qi Qi would remember this for so long.
It seems that the sports injury occurred when I was in first grade, right?
Qi Qi has not been very good at sports since she was a child, and then she fell down accidentally.
Tianhai Qimingyue paused and said softly:
"Things like this have happened countless times during my more than ten years of growing up with my sister. The relationship for more than ten years is not false. My sister doesn't want to see me sad, and I don't want to see it either. The sister who took care of me is sad, which is why I agreed to share the person I love with her."
After Tianhai Maodian listened to his second daughter's words, he didn't comment on anything, and then turned to ask Tianhai Jiuliuli:
"What about you, Liuli? What do you think? From what I know about you, Liuli, when you really find someone who can support you, you won't want to let go no matter what, right?"
When Tianhai Jiuliuli was asked about these words by his father, he lowered his head and pondered for a long time.
She and Sakakibara first looked at each other, then looked at her sister Nanami Mingyue, and finally spoke:
"Dad is right. For me, if there is someone who can really support me, I am not willing to let go no matter what."
"So, why did you agree to that bastard's condition? Was he threatening you with the condition that he would break up with you if you didn't agree?"
"No."
Tianhai Jiuliuli shook his head, "Lejun has never threatened me. I can agree to Lejun's idea. It's the same as Qiyue. After calming down, I can't separate my feelings from Qiyue. Dad, you shouldn't know that even after I and Qiyue When the quarrel was at its worst in Qiyue, Qiyue would still care about and guide the confusion in my heart. It was obvious that I had said such excessive words to Qiyue not long ago, "Lejun just pities you in Qiyue."
"Compared with July's early willingness to share the love she held on to for a lifetime, I became particularly selfish in front of my sister. I wanted to monopolize everything and didn't want to give anything to July. After calming down, I These thoughts of mine made me feel a lot of guilt for seriously injuring Qi Qi.
"Because of Qiyue's love for Lejun, she was tolerant to Lejun again and again, and took care of Lejun and me again and again. Sincere love is caring and giving everything. In this regard, I am not as good as Qiyue. Qiyue also deserves a response from Lejun, which is also what I, as a sister, hope for."
The words of two daughters.
They are all expressing themselves very clearly.
They explained the reasons why they agreed to accept each other, and also explained the balance point they established after the conflict.
As a lawyer, the thing I have seen the most in my life is "contradictions".
And what is the solution to the conflict?
That is "talking", giving your own conditions, giving your own evidence, and then negotiating with the other party.
Qi Qiyue and Liuli could say these words, but they didn't know how long the two children had been talking in private.
Their words have been made very clear.
"Suzuki, what do you think?" Amami Shigenori looked at Sakakihara Suzu.
"Me?" Sakakihara Suzu didn't expect her stepfather to ask her suddenly. She pointed to her nose and was surprised.
"Um."
Sakakihara Suzu first glanced at Nanami Mingyue secretly, then coughed twice tactically, cleared her voice and said:
"Although, my brother is indeed a scumbag, but from my perspective, it is actually Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli who are begging my brother to respond to their feelings. At the same time, my brother is soft-hearted and cannot bear to see them sad, and because Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli kidnapped his soft-heartedness, which is why he created the current situation."
Amami Madenori asked: "What is A Ling's point of view...?"
"My point of view." Sakakihara Suzu pursed her lips, then secretly observed a few people sitting there, lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "Since they all agree with my brother's idea, then it's not very good for everyone to be together in harmony. Okay? I don’t mind if they snatch my brother away. Since you, uncle, have always hoped that Sister Qiyue and Sister Liuli can be happy for a lifetime, wouldn’t it be great if they stay with my brother and be happy for a lifetime? I don’t think you have to follow any secular concepts. As long as it doesn’t affect others, happiness of this level is completely achievable, right?”
"."
Ling was persuaded by several people.
This once again left Tianhai Maodian speechless for a while.
As long as it doesn't affect the happiness of others, there's no need to follow any secular concepts?
What are secular concepts?
There is a word called "secularism". The origin of secularism is that people in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries began to question traditional religion and religious authority.
"Secular" is not truth.
The Reformation of the sixteenth century led to religious schism in Europe, which led people to question the authority of the church and the absoluteness of its teachings. It also inspired the pursuit of personal freedom of belief and independence of thought.
In essence, this is a "secular" rebellion against convention.
"Secularity" is not perfect for everyone.
What Amami Madenori did since he was a child was to resist his father, who was also an authority.
Because his authority hindered what he wanted to do and deliberately affected his thoughts, he rose up to resist to tell his father that he would not be at the mercy of his thoughts.
The core of your actions is "your inner thoughts" that are most important.
And this creed that he has implemented throughout his life is now put in front of him by his daughters.
Instead, I hesitated and hesitated again and again.
*
Sakakibara was waiting for Shigenori Amami's answer after listening to everyone's words.
In my impression, my uncle has always been a serious and open-minded person.
He can be meticulous in serious matters and respect everyone's ideas on key matters.
This is probably his habit of reasoning as a lawyer.
"That's all."
In the endless silence, Tianhai Maodian was the first to sigh, "You have all grown up, and you all have your own ideas. As a father who has been indebted to you since childhood, what can I ask of you? Your pursuit of happiness is yours. Rights, I shouldn’t restrict your ideas just because I feel uncomfortable.”
When Sakakibara heard this, he was quiet at first, then his face became happy, and he asked in a low voice:
"Uncle, did you agree?"
Amami Shigenori didn't give Sakakibara Raku a good look, "You brat, can't you understand what I just said? Or are you saying that I taught you so much that your brain was damaged?"
"No no."
Sakakibara greeted him with a smile and quickly poured wine into the cup in front of his uncle.
Uncle, he just can't get over it with his words, but he has actually accepted himself in his heart.
This is commonly known as a tough talk.
He and Qiyue are really a father and daughter born in the same mold.
"I'm extremely grateful to my uncle for being so open-minded before it's too late! I just didn't expect that my uncle would actually agree to this matter without asking me for anything."
Amami Maodian frowned and looked at his smiling face while pouring the wine:
"So, you already knew that I would agree?"
"I'm vaguely aware of this. After all, after Qiyue and Liuli came back from Hawaii, I wanted Qiyue and Liuli to return to my class. Uncle, you also acquiesced."
Amami Madenori stared at his filled wine glass and the reflection inside and said:
"Because of what happened between you, I have considered your future relationship a long time ago. According to Qiyue and Liuli's temperament, they will probably miss each other's old relationship after they calm down. After all, they are not cruel people. , just two children who lack love."
"Then can I change my name to uncle and father-in-law now?"
"You bastard, you still have to push your limits!"
Amami Shigenori put down the wine glass, but his tone was not so harsh. He slowed down his tone and said seriously to Sakakibara Raku, "I promised you, not that I accept your ideas, but because I can't do it and change my heart." Adhere to the dogma of my life. What I can do is not to support you, but to respect you and your ideas. Since you all feel that there is no problem with your relationship, then just agree. If there is a problem, don’t come to me. ."
Sakakihara smiled, "Of course, I will try to do the best I can."
"Every man says this to his father before getting married, but no matter what father he is, he will only think that this is the man's rhetoric to kidnap his daughter. What I need is not a verbal commitment, but actual actions. .”
"Of course! Uncle, you can ask Qiyue and Liuli how I treat them at any time. I will definitely not treat them badly."
Tianhai Maodian did not respond to his words, but said in addition:
"Compared with you dating my two daughters at the same time, what I can't accept even more is that you would treat them badly under such conditions. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Of course I understand."
"What you have to do is ask their opinions on everything. Even if you don't like them later and you like a new woman, you should tell them as soon as possible instead of betraying their hearts by doing anything behind their backs. A matter of will.”
".Shouldn't we never give up on them?"
Tianhai Maodian shook his head:
"I just know your past, but it doesn't mean that I fully understand your feelings. I can't completely guarantee your thoughts from my perspective. Meeting and leaving are common things in this world, and leaving is sad. I just hope that if you really want to leave, you will think about how long July has been waiting for you, how many things she has done for you, and how far she, a little girl, has traveled alone to find you. .Also think about Liuli's love for you, think about her eyes when she got up early in the morning to help you pack your clothes, gave you gloves to keep warm, and couldn't bear to see you leave.
"Sometimes, your own thoughts cannot be completely determined by yourself. You have to consider the people around you. You have to consider the thoughts of the people around you. Do you understand?"
Compared with his uncle, these words were more like his stepfather's instructions to him.
".clear."
Seeing Sakakibara nod, Amami Shigenori drank the sake in the glass in one gulp, and then put it in front of him.
Sakakibara naturally smiled and poured a new glass of sake for his uncle.
Drinking the wine she poured for her uncle probably meant that her uncle completely recognized her, right?
Thinking that in the future, even if she hugged Qijiu openly in front of her uncle, it would be fine, she was too late to be happy, and pouring wine for her uncle was naturally a trivial matter.
Amami Shigenori drank another drink in one gulp, then put down the glass, and said to Sakakibara Raku with an unswerving expression:
"Since you agree with me as the father of Qiyue and Liuli, I will naturally give you some conditions. Those words just now were said from your perspective, and now, they are what I want you to do as a father. "
"Uncle, please tell me."
"First, you can't give up on them. You should know what I'm talking about."
"Of course." Sakakihara nodded.
"Second, you are still too young now. Some things have to wait until adulthood. Do you understand? Your mother also fully agrees with my approach. Although you can fully afford to raise children now, it does not mean that you can do it now."
"."
"What? You don't want to agree?" Tianhai Maodian frowned, his expression even more unhappy.
this matter.
What should I say?
Not saying anything would be beneficial to the development of the matter, but hiding it would seem to be even worse.
My uncle has given in to this point, and if he doesn't tell the matter, it won't be justified.
Sakakihara looked at Qiyue and Liuli, as well as his mother and sister with some embarrassment.
Amami Miwa saw a clue in her son's eyes when he looked over at that moment, and then looked at Liuli, who was bowing her head shyly, and Qiyue, who was expressionless.
Combined with the previous Saturday when the three of them went out together, she seemed to understand something.
Should A Le...?
At the same time, Sakakihara Raku also took the initiative to tell his uncle about the matter:
"As for this, uncle, I actually can no longer agree to it."
"There is no other way, why do you say it's already."
Amami Madenori's voice stopped suddenly. He seemed to understand something instantly, his expression became stiff, and he scanned the expressions and faces of his two daughters.
He waved his hand to Meihe to take everyone out first.
Amami Miwa also guessed what was going on, and spoke to Suzu Yoshiki, who was completely unaware, and left the private room with Qijiu first.
There were only two people left in the entire luxurious box.
Snapped.
The sound of a wine glass being crushed.
"How long did it take?"
"Not long ago, just a few days ago."
"Saturday? The time we went to the manor?"
"yes"
"Did you take the two of them with you?"
"yes"
".Do you think I should call you a bastard?"
"certainly."
calm.
Amami Maodian persuaded himself hundreds of times to calm down, but he still couldn't calm down.
"This is all a matter of time, so they agreed to this?"
"They agreed. But don't worry, uncle, it's only July."
"Do you have Liuli?"
"of course not."
"Where are the security measures?"
"Did it too."
After hearing this, Tianhai Maodian suddenly felt weak.
Originally, he wanted to take control of this brat, but now he just wants to be the hands-off shopkeeper, and his daughters can do whatever they want, and he has no control over it.
I really want to piss myself off!
stop!
Stop it!
Nothing!
Anyway, he has already pushed his daughter out and agrees to their relationship.
Then it is only a matter of time to have two grandchildren, so they can accept it.
It's just that Qi Qi is willing to be with this brat, and Liuli still has some sense of propriety.
"I have no control over your young people's behavior. If you have children, don't expect your mother and I to help you take care of them."
"This is natural!"
Amami Madenori waved his hand in disgust, telling the brat to sit down quickly and continue pouring himself wine.
Sakakibara Raku was naturally more considerate, trying to keep in touch with and take care of his father-in-law to make him feel more comfortable.
After some time, while eating the delicious food that was undeniably delicious, Amami Modenori lost some of his anger, and then he returned to the topic:
"Zhixue, what do you think?"
"Zhi Xue? I treat her as my sister, just like Ling."
"As long as you understand," Amami Madenori sighed again while holding the wine glass, "As a father and brother, when I understood what Zhixue meant to you, I was also very conflicted. Not only do I have to be caught between the feelings of my daughter and my little sister, I also want to refute what the old man said is completely correct. To be honest, I have been really tired because of your affairs in the past few months."
"Excuse me, uncle." Raku Sakakibara quickly gave his uncle a chopstick of his favorite lobster, and filled his uncle's wine glass.
"Zhixue is also a child who lacks love. I can understand why the old man sent her here. After all, she is the same age as you. And you are so good at taking care of others. After knowing the life experiences of you and Ling, I even I don’t think it’s surprising that your sister likes you, but luckily she doesn’t.”
"." Sakakihara chose not to speak.
"The old man will definitely not give up. Even if I help you talk to Qiyue Liuli, he will only relax the conditions. What you have to do now is to let Zhixue give up on her own, and at the same time, don't hurt her, do you understand?"
".Understood. Qiyue and Liuli also told me about this."
"It's good to understand. I agree with you because I don't want Qiyue and Liuli to be separated. They have been together since childhood and have experienced many things." Amami Madenori took another sip of sake and stared into the glass. His own reflection murmured, "I hope you brat like you won't make me regret it in the future."
After Tianhai Maodian said this, he stopped talking.
Then everyone returned to the dining table.
My mother sat next to her uncle and took care of him who kept drinking.
Although the atmosphere was a bit strange, it was still lively under the leadership of Raku Sakakibara.
The family sat around this round table, eating hot dishes, drinking hot drinks, and admiring the beautiful urban scenery brought by the Shibuya skyline.
The starry sky at night is bright and beautiful.
"Happy birthday, uncle!" Sakakihara Suzu said with a smile.
"Yes." Amami Madenori, whose face turned red from drinking, nodded towards her.
Tianhai Zhixue then went over to give her brother a birthday blessing.
Seeing the dumb look on his little sister's face, Tianhai Maodian reached out and touched her head and asked her to go back and continue eating.
To these two children, Amami Madenori maintained a good expression. Only when Sakakibara Raku and Yue Yueli came together to send blessings, Amami Madenori became stern:
"You guys, you guys, my birthday is really, really happy."
Sakakibara smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry."
"What a...bastard, bastard boy. You should have been harder when I was beaten. My two daughters were abducted by you bastard boy. However, it is also my fault that I failed to give them what they wanted."
"Modenori, you are drunk."
"It's nothing. Just vent."
In the second half, Amami Maodori was a little drunk, but he still accepted the birthday wishes from the three people.
It wasn't until twelve o'clock in the evening that a few people finished their meal.
Tianhai Meihe helped her husband, who had passed out from drinking, into the car, arranged his clothes, and fastened his seat belt.
After closing the rear door, Amami looked at her son standing in front of her.
Sakakihara seemed a little apologetic: "Mom, you don't blame me, do you?"
"Me? What qualifications do I have? For selfish reasons, I am also happy that you can gain the approval of these two outstanding girls. As a wife, since Madenori has agreed, then I have nothing to object to."
Amami Miwa smiled at him, and whispered to Raku Sakakibara behind the three people who were discussing who should carry the sleepy Yuki:
"Besides, I also want to hug the children of you, Qiyue and Liuli as soon as possible."
"mom"
Sakakibara couldn't laugh or cry, his mother was really on his side.
"Okay, okay," Tianhai Meihe reached out to straighten his crooked collar, "I will be happy with you in my future life, what else are you dissatisfied with? Ah Le is now capable and can buy one for himself. How much? A sports car that comes with money?”
"Five million euros."
"That's right! This is hundreds of millions of yen, enough for an ordinary person to spend a lifetime. If that bastard was still alive in this world, wouldn't he regret it to death knowing that the son he abandoned was so good?"
My mother said this very poignantly.
"Madenori said that he didn't take good care of Qiyue and Liuli, so why didn't I? I only gave you and Ling living expenses and money, because Ale, you were so reassuring, and I pushed everything on you." Amami Miwa He lowered his hand from the collar of his son, who was much taller than him.
"Mom, stop talking about this."
"Yes, let's not talk about that." Tianhai Mihe smiled again, "But how about you and Qiyue and Liuli develop a relationship again? Let me hold two grandchildren at the same time."
"."
Mom, you are too open about picking up two girls. You don't care at all?
Seeing that her son didn't answer her, Tianhai Mihe didn't say anything more. She patted the dust on his body and said with a smile:
"Okay, that's it for today. It's really hard for you to cook so many dishes. I'll take Maodian and Xue Aling back first, and the three of you can decide what to do in the evening. Of course, It’s okay not to come back.”
"."
Amami Miwa called up to Sakakibara Suzu, who had Amami Noyuki on her back, and got into the cab of the Audi A6.
"Now, brother, are you satisfied?"
Sakakibara Suzu made a dissatisfied face at Sakakibara Raku, and then also got into the car.
Mom drove the car, pressed down the window, said goodbye to herself in the cab, and said, "We're leaving first." When Sakakibara nodded in response, he soon saw the taillights of the car and disappeared. corner of parking lot
Staring at the car lights until they disappeared completely, Sakakibara smiled and closed his eyes, then looked back at the two sisters who were waiting for him to speak.
He didn't wait for the two of them to speak, but walked over directly, holding each of their hands.
Tianhai Qimingyue is on the left, with a dissatisfied face: "I originally thought you would be scolded by dad, and it will be easier for you."
Tianhai Jiuliuli was on the right, very happy, "Isn't this good? Lejun was not embarrassed or anything."
"Sister~ You just dote on someone too much."
"This is my boyfriend."
"Sometimes your boyfriend shouldn't be too doting, and sometimes you have to whet his appetite. Otherwise, if you let him be too satisfied, he will become more and more obsessed with you."
"Lejun definitely won't."
"That's for sure!"
Sakakihara agreed, and then prepared to give Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli a kiss on their lips.
Liuli felt it was a bit sudden, but she didn't refuse, and it was only a slight touch.
The seven bright moons in the sky and the sea are ugly, reaching out to push away someone's shameless face.
She said to her somewhat sweet sister with a stern face:
"Did you see it, sister? This man is starting to be obsessed with you now."
"Yeah?"
Amami Kuruuri didn't listen to her sister's words. Instead, she stood on tiptoes and suddenly kissed Sakakihara Raku from the side.
Then
Then, in front of her sister, she pressed her forehead against her boyfriend's chin, leaned on his arms with her shoulders, and started to get tired of him.
Seeing Tianhai Qimingyue frowned.
Maybe this will be our daily routine from now on?
What a stupid couple.
"Come on, come and give me a hug in Qiyue."
"Go away, I don't want it."
"Really? Then I took Liuli to stay in the hotel alone today."
".you dare."
