Chapter 198 Thank You

In the banquet hall, people of all sizes were scattered into small groups of two or three, or five or six.

There were political and business elites toasting each other, and young masters and young ladies chatting and laughing, reminiscing about the past, or chatting.

And the young masters and young ladies gathered together, chatting in a relaxed atmosphere about some interesting and ordinary topics in their eyes, such as what kind of car will be launched tomorrow, or how many precious purebred racehorses they bought.

To the outside world, the few random numbers they said may be the dreams that many people cannot achieve in their lifetime.

"Sister Ayako, long time no see, you are still so beautiful and radiant.

I wonder when you and Brother Yuzo are going to hold your engagement party. If you don't mind, you can actually come to our hotel, it's free~."

"Tsk tsk, don't you feel guilty? Your Muto family's shabby hotel, wow, I feel bad thinking back to the last time I was fooled, Saito, don't think of tricking others into adding luster to your old house that has been in disrepair for a long time!"

"No way, it's only been a few years, it's not as exaggerated as you said, Payne!"

"Haha."

The air was full of a happy atmosphere, and Suzuki Ayako, who was with a group of young men, was always smiling with a gentle expression.

Her eyes passed over the faces of these people and those in the distance, familiar and unfamiliar, Tozawa, Moto, Muto, Hatamoto, Shiling, Mitsui

She showed a satisfied smile, the local forces in Osaka still gave face.

Honan Group and Muto Group, in fact, as long as these two companies are here, the rest cannot be said to be unimportant, but this banquet has achieved its purpose.

Most of the others are still acquaintances in Tokyo and consortiums from other places.

"Hey, by the way, Ayako, why don't you see Sonoko? Where is she?"

Muto Saito suddenly changed the subject and pulled Suzuki Ayako, who had been distracted, back.

"Sonoko--,"

Suzuki Ayako was about to reply, but her eyes turned and she suddenly saw a girl who was wearing a dress that did not match their dresses a few steps away, accompanied by another girl, approaching them.

Following Suzuki Ayako's line of sight, Mitsui Pain, Muto Saito, Hatamoto Natsue, and Honno Daiji also looked at the newcomer.

Among these people, except for Ryomoto Natsue, who actually did not like to participate in these things but was accidentally involved here, the eyes of the other three young men, including Suzuki Ayako, changed when they saw the newcomer.

But it was very subtle, because in just a few seconds, the other party had already walked up to them.

"Ms. Ooka."

"Fuyutsuki."

Suzuki Ayako smiled slightly, nodded actively, and greeted them first.

Seeing this, the others followed and greeted the three people.

But it is not difficult to see the difference from the address. Suzuki Ayako only called Ooka Hongye by her last name, while she called Mitsui Fuyutsuki next to her by her first name.

"Ms. Suzuki, I'm sorry to bother you. I was invited by a friend and just came to a dinner party. I don't think you would be unwelcome, right?"

Ooka Hongye bowed slightly, also smiling, and behaved elegantly.

She just came to relax and relax at the invitation of Mitsui Fuyutsuki.

After what happened in the afternoon, she heard that there was a banquet here, although it was hosted by the Suzuki family, but she thought about it and came anyway.

After all, although the two families don't get along, they are not completely without any contact.

However, her appearance did bring a lot of surprises to Suzuki Ayako and even the people around her.

"Miss Tsuna, you are joking. You are most welcome."

"Yes, yes, Miss Hongye."

Ooka Hongye smiled and nodded, and then prepared to turn around and leave with Mitsui Fuyutsuki.

At this time, Mitsui Pain, who was standing next to Suzuki Ayako, was attracted by another situation, "Ayako, is that the man over there the male companion of Sonoko you just mentioned?"

His voice was not concealed, even if the situation he saw was not suitable for more people to pay attention to.

Suzuki Ayako and others turned their heads to look after hearing the voice, including Ooka Hongye who was about to leave.

And with this glance, the smiles on the faces of Suzuki Ayako and Ooka Hongye all disappeared tacitly.

However, Ooka Hongye was just more surprised at this time.

——

"What are the consequences?"

Shimizu Koji spoke lightly, and he naturally had no fear of these young men.

Although he might have more problems in this matter, but, so what?

Si Ling Ming Yan had never expected that Shimizu Koji could be so calm, but he was sure that the other party was not a member of his top consortium circle.

That confidence, yes, is because he didn't know him.

Si Ling Ming Yan was a little angry and laughed in his heart. In Tokyo, he had never encountered such a situation. If it was in Tokyo, the other party should be kneeling on the ground to wipe his shoes.

"Are you so arrogant? Believe me, you don't want to see the consequences I said."

Si Ling Ming Yan did not use examples to threaten Shimizu Koji one by one, that would be too embarrassing, and this side has attracted a lot of people's attention.

If Shimizu Koji insisted on not apologizing, maybe he didn't need to do anything. Once he turned around, there would be people who would help him investigate Shimizu Koji clearly, and even directly help him.

And among the onlookers on the side, some people couldn't help but whisper at this time.

"Who is that guy?"

"How could you offend someone in such an occasion? Isn't that too stupid?"

"That's the eldest son of the Siling Group."

Siling Mingyan's face did not change, but listening to the voices around him, he was more and more certain that Shimizu Koji was just a member of a small, unknown family in Osaka or other places.

And Shimizu Koji was very calm, because it was impossible for Shimizu Mingyan to investigate him from other places. He was penniless, but he really wanted to see what consequences this chaebol son could bring to him. It couldn't be like in movies and TV dramas, where just a small conflict would send someone to kill him, right?

So he was about to say something generous like "wait and see" to send the two brothers away, but when he glanced at the corner of his eye, Shimizu Koji frowned.

"Ah--, sorry to bother you, is this yours?"

The sudden appearance of a female voice immediately attracted the attention of the people around, or in other words, before she spoke, many people had already noticed him.

Shiling Mingyan looked at Ooka Hongye who walked from behind him to the front of Shimizu Koji, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Ooka Hongye, still wearing the pink dress with black stockings that she wore during the day, can't be said to be out of tune with the atmosphere of the banquet, but at least at this time, standing with a group of people in formal dresses, the contrast is very obvious.

She smiled gently, just handed a piece of paper with "sign" written on the back to Shimizu Koji with one hand, and Huiyuan Ai, who had been silent all the time, stood on tiptoe, barely saw it clearly, and recognized that it might indeed be Shimizu Koji's.

This is the third time Shimizu Koji has met Ooka Hongye today, and he didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Just like fate, there is no reason to follow, and it always gives people unexpected answers.

After taking a look at the sign in her hand, Shimizu Koji nodded and reached out to take it.

"Well, thank you."
