Ishida Kito is working in the study room that originally belonged to his uncle. These are the tasks left by his uncle during his lifetime. Logically speaking, they should be handed over to the next council member. However, Ishida Kihito has already begun to consider himself as a council member and handles these tasks. .
This is not only because he is the secretary of Representative Ishida and is familiar with these tasks and knows how to handle them, but also because he knows that this election of members must be his. If he handles the subsequent work early, he will be able to relax in the future. Some are not?
For these tasks, Ishida Kito handled these tasks very seriously. From time to time, he frowned and paused in deep thought, as if he was concentrating on it. However, the look in his eyes that glanced at Ryoko Yakushiji from time to time betrayed him.
Men are most attractive when they work hard. Is it possible that I have attracted the favor of Yakushiji Ryoko now that I am working so hard?
Ishida Xiren said silently in his heart.
Although Yakushiji Ryoko can be said to be notorious among Tokyo’s upper class circles, as famous as her notoriety is her stunning beauty. In addition to her stunning beauty and good figure, JACES Group The eldest lady, this identity attracts countless people, so even though Ryoko Yakushiji has a fierce reputation, there are still many young men in Tokyo who know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to travel to the mountains.
Ishida Kito originally had no plan to pursue Yakushiji Ryoko, but now Yakushiji Ryoko comes to her door. If she gives up this God-given opportunity, Ishida Kito is afraid that she will regret it and can't sleep at night.
And Kiki Ishida had such an idea because Yakushiji Ryoko sent him a "signal".
Obviously he can go home after introducing him to the martial arts master who protects him, but Yakushiji Ryoko chooses to stay and protect him with the martial arts master. Isn't this proof that Yakushiji Ryoko is interested in him?
As the heir to the Ishida family, Kihito Ishida is relatively confident in himself. First of all, he has good looks and is just the right age, in his thirties. He matches Ryoko Yakushiji very well. Moreover, the Ishida family is an old political family in Tokyo. With great influence, politicians and wealthy businessmen, it is hard to overstate the perfect match between the two families.
The more Ishida Kiki thinks about it, the more he feels that he and Yakushiji Ryoko are a perfect match. He and Yakushiji Ryoko are married. With the financial resources and connections of the Yakushiji family, there is no doubt that he will be able to get the throne of the prime minister in the future. The Ishida family will also become the first to have a prime minister. Political family!
As he thought about it, Ishida Kishito couldn't help but feel excited. He should have acted seriously and even endured the grief of his uncle's death, but he couldn't help but grin upward.
Still not powerful enough to become a qualified political machine! ap..
Thinking of his proud place, Ishida Kito couldn't help but secretly glanced at Yakushiji Ryoko again, and found that the beauty in his heart was sitting on a chair, holding her chin in her hands, and the direction her eyes were looking was not to her side, but to her sitting beside her. The young martial artist wearing glasses next to him.
Ishida Kishito's face suddenly turned green. What was greener than his face was the green light on his head - although Yakushiji Ryoko had never had anything to do with her, in Ishida Kishito's imagination, Yakushiji Ryoko was already The mother of his three children!
"Ahem!"
Ishida Kiki stopped what he was doing (and had no intention of working at the same time), he coughed, and then Yan Kai and Yakushiji Ryoko said: "Miss Yakushiji, Mr. Yan, are you thirsty? I was busy working just now, and I forgot It’s really rude to serve you two tea.”
"No, I'm not thirsty."
Yakushiji Ryoko didn't even turn her head, still staring at Yan Kai. This attitude naturally made Ishida Kihi even more dissatisfied - how could the mother of his three children keep staring at other men? Isn’t this unruly!
Yan Kai didn't seem to notice Yakushiji Ryoko's gaze at all, and his eyes kept wandering on an antique shelf in the study.
There were some antiques on it, from Japan, the Central Plains, and even Korea. Yan Kai's eyes were wandering back and forth between these antiques, and Yakushiji Ryoko's eyes seemed to be looking at Yan Kai, but they were actually looking around those antiques. Antiques swirl.
Yakushiji Ryoko, who had been playing eye-rolling games with Yan Kai all night, finally couldn't stand it anymore and rubbed her eyes.
take a break.
Damn it, what on earth does he care about!
Yakushiji Ryoko gritted his teeth and said.
She was already sure that Yan Kai was plotting something on the antique shelf, but she wasn't sure what it was because Yan Kai was always guarding her and his eyes never stayed on something.
This can't go on like this!
Yakushiji Ryoko felt that if she continued to play with Yan Kai, her eyes would cramp up, so she got up and walked to the antique shelf, and said happily to Ishida: "Mr. Ishida, are these antiques collected by Senator Ishida during his lifetime? "
Seeing Yakushiji Ryoko mentioning antiques, Ishida was as happy as waking up from a dream.
Oh, it turns out that Liangzi likes antiques. I said, what’s so interesting about an ordinary young martial artist? It turns out that Liangzi likes my antiques!
Ishida Kishito, who realized that the misunderstanding had been solved, was ecstatic. He coughed again, suppressing his excitement and said: "Exactly, why, Miss Ryoko likes it? If it's just one or two pieces, as a thank you gift from Miss Yakushiji for protecting me, I I can decide to give it to you."
"Thanks then."
Yakushiji Ryoko didn't even refuse, she went directly to the antique shelf and started picking.
Ishida's cheek twitched slightly, but he quickly comforted himself.
Anyway, Ryoko is a member of the Ishida family sooner or later, and the things given to her will return to the Ishida family sooner or later. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter...
Standing in front of the antique rack, Yakushiji Ryoko seemed to be focused on the many antiques, but out of the corner of her eye, she kept paying attention to Yan Kai behind her.
Yakushiji Ryoko's hand fell in front of a gilt incense burner, but Yan Kai didn't respond. Yakushiji Ryoko's hand fell in front of a Jingdezhen porcelain, and Yan Kai still didn't react.
However, Yakushiji Ryoko was not impatient. There were so many antiques on the antique shelf, so she could just try them one by one slowly.
Because Yan Kai was from the Central Plains, Yakushiji Ryoko's hands mostly rested on antiques from the Central Plains. However, Yan Kai had no reaction at all, which made Yakushiji Ryoko think that he had guessed wrong.
When Yakushiji Ryoko's hand fell on a group of jade dolls, Yan Kai tried his best to restrain himself, but his slightly pursed lips were still caught by Yakushiji Ryoko.
It turns out to be these things!
Yakushiji Ryoko couldn't help but chuckle, "Boy, you are still too young in front of my aunt!"
After confirming that Yan Kai was interested in this group of jade dolls, Yakushiji Ryoko carefully looked at the group of jade dolls.
There are a total of twelve jade dolls, all of which are hand-carved from the finest ice jade. Each doll is vivid, naive and very cute.
"These jade dolls look very cute. Can I have this set of jade dolls?"
Yakushiji Ryoko was pleased with Ishida.
"Of course, as long as Yakushiji-san likes it."
Ishida smiled happily, trying his best to appear graceful.
"Thank you very much Mr. Ishida."
Yakushiji Ryoko spoke to Ishida Kishito, but her eyes kept staring at Yan Kai. Seeing Yan Kai slightly clenching his fists, he felt that this group of jade dolls was what Yan Kai was plotting.
Just when Yakushiji Ryoko thought she had seen through Yan Kai and was about to take the jade doll home and study it slowly, Yan Kai suddenly asked: "Excuse me, are there only twelve jade dolls in this group?"
"Forehead……"
Ishida Kihito recalled that this set of jade dolls was bought by Councilor Ishida from an antique store called "Amitaya" a few years ago. At that time, Ishida Kihito had just become Councilor Ishida's secretary, and each of these jade dolls was still his. It was placed on the antique shelf, so he was quite impressed, so he said with certainty: "Yes, there are only twelve."
"There are really only twelve?"
"There are really only twelve!"
"Isn't there a thirteenth jade doll?"
"No, there is no thirteenth emerald doll."
Ishida shook his head happily and said in his heart, if there were thirteen jade dolls, Representative Ishida might still have
I won’t buy it, otherwise it will be unlucky! Read the book
In Japan, thirteen is not a flattering number. In traditional Japanese culture, thirteen is regarded as a number related to misfortune and disaster. People believe that thirteen is the evil spirit of the world. The appearance of this number It may bring misfortune and disaster. In ancient times, the guillotine was also located on the thirteenth highest step. Going to the thirteenth step meant that you were about to be beheaded.
After the Akechi Restoration and the introduction of Christianity, Japanese people disliked the devilish number "Thirteen" even more, and avoided this number everywhere in their lives. If the Emerald Doll had been thirteen, Representative Ishida might have really Not buying it.
"Okay, then I get it."
Yan Kai nodded slightly, and then his expression became relaxed.
The sudden change in Yan Kai's attitude left Yakushiji Ryoko puzzled. She couldn't help but ask: "Isn't there a thirteenth in this group of jade dolls?"
Yan smiled but said nothing.
Yakushiji Ryoko glared at Yan Kai, Yan Kai thought for a moment, and then said to Yakushiji Ryoko: "Let's go out and talk."
Yakushiji Ryoko glanced at Ishida Kishito, Ishida Kishito showed a "please" smile, and then Yakushiji Ryoko nodded and said: "Okay."
The two of them left the study. Ishida thought for a moment and followed quietly instead of sitting at the desk and starting to work again.
Yan Kai and Yakushiji Ryoko came to the courtyard of Ishida's house and encountered bodyguards patrolling. After seeing that the person coming was their eldest daughter, the bodyguard relaxed and bowed to Yakushiji Ryoko before continuing to patrol other places.
"What on earth are those twelve jade dolls? You agreed to protect Ishida Kito because of those twelve jade dolls, right?"
Under the moonlight, Yakushiji Ryoko concentrated on Yan Kaidao.
Yan Kai didn't answer, as if he was brewing something or waiting for something. After a while, he pushed up his glasses and said calmly: "Originally, but now it doesn't make sense."
"Why? Because the thirteenth jade doll is missing?"
Ryoko Yakushiji asked.
"Yes." Yan Kai nodded, "These thirteen jade dolls are indispensable. If any one is missing, the rest of the jade dolls will have no value. Well, no, you can't say that they are without value. After all, they are of the best quality. Ice jade has master-level craftsmanship that adds value to it, and overall it is a very valuable antique. I believe it will not be difficult to sell these twelve jade dolls for hundreds of millions or even billions of yen."
Yakushiji Ryoko continued to stare at Yan Kai and said, "But you must look down on such money, right? So, what secrets are hidden in these jade dolls?"
Yan Kai was silent for a while, and then said: "Anyway, we can't make up thirteen jade dolls, so it doesn't matter if I tell you."
Hearing that Yan Kai was about to tell the secret of the jade doll, a dark figure couldn't help but get closer in the darkness, fearing that he might have missed something.
However, his worries were unnecessary. Yan Kai's voice was not loud, but his enunciation was very clear, and in the dead of night, any sound was easily amplified, so he didn't have to worry about hearing clearly.
Just listen to Yan Kai telling Yakushiji Liangzi: "It is said that during the Ming Dynasty, a set of amazing martial arts appeared in the Central Plains martial arts. They fought for it, and then disappeared mysteriously. That set of martial arts had no name, but because it was engraved on a set of jade dolls, people in the martial arts community at that time called it "the martial arts on the jade dolls." ".
Hearing that the twelve lovely jade dolls were actually related to peerless martial arts, even Yakushiji Ryoko couldn't help but breathe a little heavier.
Yakushiji Ryoko has plenty of money. She can ignore hundreds of millions and billions of yen. Even if she doesn't have it, she can still ask her father for it. Anyway, the money her father has worked hard to earn all his life will eventually be returned. What does it matter if she advances a little in advance?
Power, this is the goal that Yakushiji Ryoko is striving for now. She is already a counselor in the Criminal Division of the Metropolitan Police Department at a young age. She can be said to have a bright future. In addition, she has mastered countless dirty materials of bureaucrats and politicians. The power held indirectly by superiors is more
I don't know how big it is.
But Yakushiji Ryoko really doesn't have peerless martial arts. Although among ordinary people, she is already a master of fighting. If a dozen big men meet Yakushiji Ryoko, they will only end up with their balls kicked out. But once she meets a real martial artist In comparison, her little fighting skills were reduced to three-legged cat kung fu, which has always been the biggest regret in Yakushiji Ryoko's heart.
As a woman with extremely high self-esteem, Yakushiji Ryoko wants to be the best in everything, but when it comes to martial arts, she is really powerless because no one is willing to teach her superior martial arts, not even her cheap one. Her master, Kitayama Xingyi, did not dare to teach her the real martial arts of the Sanji Sect due to the rules of the Sanji Sect, and Yakushiji Ryoko, a mediocre martial artist, disdained to learn them, so she wasted her time until now.
Now when I hear Yan Kai talking about the amazing martial arts on the jade doll, I wonder how Yakushiji Ryoko is not tempted?
"I advise you not to pursue that kind of martial arts."
Yan Kai naturally saw the ambition flashing in Yakushiji Ryoko's eyes and poured cold water on her.
"The martial arts on the jade dolls, no matter which one is missing, will not work properly when you practice them, and you will eventually go crazy and die. Even if you have twelve jade dolls and the thirteenth one is missing, if you continue to practice them forcefully, maybe you will be able to do it in a short time." You gain powerful power within a short period of time, but this power will soon backfire, and then you will only die, and it will be a very miserable death."
Yan Kai solemnly warned Yakushiji Liangzi.
It turns out that my jade doll actually has amazing martial arts skills!
The shadow eavesdropping outside the courtyard was ecstatic. He suppressed the excitement in his heart, gently left the place, and then walked quickly to the study.
Sensing that the eavesdropper had left, Yan Kai couldn't help but want to raise the corners of his mouth, but he still resisted.
Well, these days, it’s really hard to go out and have some acting skills!
