Chapter 232: Chapter 225: Sowing Discord, Tangong Huizi Reveals Her Ambitions
The woman causing such a scene was none other than Asai Zexi’s fiancée in name.
My future sister-in-law—Iihara Nishi.
"Let her go," Aoyama Xiu Xin said.
The two bodyguards holding Iihara Nishi released her immediately upon hearing this, bowed, and stepped to the side.
"Idiot, Aoyama Xiu Xin!" Iihara Nishi, with red-rimmed eyes and tear streaks not yet dry, rushed to Aoyama Xiu Xin, grabbed his collar, and hysterically shouted, "Give Jian Er back to me! What right do you have to meddle in our affairs? You damned bastard!"
Sato Kenji had disappeared, leaving behind a farewell letter that mentioned Aoyama Xiu Xin’s name, which was why Iihara Nishi had come looking for him.
"So it’s because of him!"
Aoyama Xiu Xin’s lips curled slightly as he leisurely pried Iihara Nishi’s hand off his collar.
"Miss Iihara, please get it straight, your fiancé is Asai Zexi, not Sato Kenji."
"I will never marry him! The only person I love is Jian Er; he can dream on about having me!" Iihara Nishi roared with heartrending fervor, her eyes filled with determination and resentment.
Aoyama Xiu Xin chuckled, "You think my Brother Zexi is interested in you? If it wasn’t for your influential father, he wouldn’t even bother to look at you twice."
"Idiot!" Iihara Nishi, infuriated and swearing angrily, raised her hand to slap Aoyama Xiu Xin.
"Slap!"
Aoyama Xiu Xin preemptively struck with a resounding backhand.
"Ah!" Iihara Nishi screamed as the blow knocked her to the ground, a trickle of scarlet blood oozing from the corner of her mouth. She clutched her cheek, staring at Aoyama Xiu Xin in shock and fury, "You... you dare hit me?"
She was quite beautiful, with long hair cascading over her shoulders, wearing a thin gray spaghetti strap dress, one of the straps having slipped down her shoulder, revealing a hint of her full springtime figure. Her long legs wrapped in black stockings overlapped as she propped herself up with one hand. She looked pitiable with her tears, almost stirring some sympathy.
"Well, you were only going to hit me, weren’t you?" Aoyama Xiu Xin looked down at her contemptuously, squatting down to grab her hair and lift her face to his, "What I hate most is people like you who comfortably take advantage of the family’s created privileges on the one hand, and on the other hand, pursue ’true love’, unwilling to sacrifice for the family. Doesn’t that make you despicable?"
"Look at your clothes, shoes, bags, and jewelry—any one of them would be enough for an average person to live on for a year or half. Did you buy even one of them with your own money? If you enjoy the benefits, you must accept the responsibilities!"
"Besides, as far as I know, you’ve been nothing but indulgent since you were sensible. Your academic performance was terrible. If it wasn’t for your father pulling strings for you, you wouldn’t have even made it to university, let alone have met Sato Kenji."
Without the big sister-in-law at home, it was convenient for him to act without restraint. Otherwise, he’d have to be a bit more circumspect in front of this wretched woman.
"Shut up!" Iihara Nishi roared furiously, clearly having been cut to the quick, struck in her sore spot.
Aoyama Xiu Xin let go of her, walked over to the dining room to pour himself a glass of water, and said, "Besides, Sato Kenji doesn’t love you as much as you think. If he did, he would’ve boldly thrown his bank card in my face instead of leaving you with my money under the guise of your best interest."
He was just saying what suited the occasion; before, he had told Sato Kenji that if he truly loved Iihara Nishi, he should break up with her. Now that Sato Kenji really broke up, he was telling Iihara Nishi that Sato Kenji’s love wasn’t firm enough, otherwise, he wouldn’t have left.
He got to say all the good and bad things by himself.
"You’re lying! You must have pressured him! It has to be that!" Iihara Nishi said through her tears.
Aoyama Xiu Xin tilted his head back to finish his drink, alleviating his dry throat, and said, "Even if I pressured him, he couldn’t withstand it, could he? In the end, he didn’t love you enough. You treasure him, but he regards you as worthless. Stop lying to yourself. You’d better come to your senses, ’big sister-in-law.’"
"No! It isn’t like that! It’s not!" Iihara Nishi shook her head repeatedly, curled up on the ground, and buried her head, weeping, "He said he wanted to grow old with me and that he would never leave me."
"But he has left now. Clearly, he was deceiving you with his words. I just helped you see his true colors. Instead of thanking me, you blame me?" Aoyama Xiu Xin said with a shrug.
Iihara Nishi looked up, her eyes red with anger, "Shut up! I’ll hate you for the rest of my life!"
"Good, then you should marry my Brother Zexi. That way, every time I see you, I’ll have to respectfully call you ’big sister-in-law,’ which would be a form of revenge for me," Aoyama Xiu Xin said with a smile.
Watching his brazenly smug expression, Iihara Nishi was so angry that she ground her teeth and trembled all over. She got up from the ground and, without looking back, turned and left.
In her heart, she vowed to marry Asai Zexi as he wished, and then she’d find ways to sow discord between them every day to make him regret arranging this marriage.
"Big sister-in-law, take care! Come visit whenever you like!"
Aoyama Xiu Xin shouted after her, raising his glass of water high.
He immediately called his big brother.
"Brother, Iihara Nishi just found out that I made Sato Kenji break up with her. She came to my place and made a big scene, damaged the living room, and even hit me," Aoyama Xiu Xin said with a tone of grievance and helplessness.
What do they say about the wicked complaining first
Asai Zexi was deeply moved; Xiu Xin had suffered for his sake. At the same time, his dislike for Iihara Nishi, that shrew, grew, "You’ve been wronged, Xiu Xin."
"We’re all family, but brother, she’s not a simple woman. She hates you and now bears a grudge against me as well, so you must not be swayed by her in the future," Aoyama Xiu Xin started to stir up trouble in their marital relationship already.
After all, if this couple actually got along well after marriage, wouldn’t he end up the bad guy both inside and out?
Asai Zexi said, "Don’t worry, I have everything under control. I’m guarding against exactly that. I won’t be used by a woman. Once she marries into the family and bears a child with the blood of both the Asakai and Iihara families, she’ll be of no use. We’ll stay together if we can, and part ways if we can’t."
"Still, she’s the daughter of the Iihara family. We need to keep up appearances," Aoyama Xiu Xin, who had just finished sowing discord, switched gears and spoke a fair word.
This made it seem as if he really had Zexi’s best interests at heart and wasn’t just stirring up trouble.
............
At noon, Aoyama Xiu Xin had arranged to have lunch with Tangong Huizi at an upscale restaurant in the Shinjuku District.
Inside the dimly lit private room, they knelt across from each other at the table, which was laden with an array of exquisite dishes and several bottles of expensive wine.
"Police Chief Aoyama, let me toast to you first to thank you for pointing the Civilian Corps in the right direction," Tangong Huizi said politely, raising her glass.
"Please," Aoyama Xiu Xin lifted his glass in response, then drained it with a tilt of his head, set down the glass, and picked up his chopsticks to try the food. "President Tangong, let’s talk about my brother."
"Sure!" Tangong Huizi set down her glass, bowed slightly, and then lifting her head she began slowly, "Firstly, I must apologize. The person who approached your brother was indeed one of our Civil Corps members. She and I have different ideas and tried, through old-fashioned means, to control you for the use of the Corps, to prove that I was wrong."
"So, President Tangong, how do you plan to resolve this?" Aoyama Xiu Xin asked while eating.
Tangong Huizi fixed her gaze on him, "I hope Police Chief Aoyama can help me. Similarly, you also want to teach this guy a lesson, right? We can cooperate on this point."
"Tell me, what kind of cooperation are you proposing?" Aoyama Xiu Xin looked up, his expression showing interest.
Tangong Huizi smiled slightly, turned to pick up a file, and handed it over with both hands to Aoyama Xiu Xin, "This is information about her youngest son, who took the opportunity during the chaos of the Soviet Union’s collapse to smuggle people from Russia into Japan and South Korea for the sex trade. Police Chief Aoyama could investigate his crimes and arrest him according to the law."
"Smuggling, organized crime, that’s the role of Section Four. But my relations with the head of Section Four are quite good," Aoyama Xiu Xin chuckled, then added, "Using me to weaken your competitor under the guise of helping me out, that’s a clever calculation. However, if this case became public, the reputation of your Civilian Corps would be even worse."
"That’s exactly where my role becomes crucial," Tangong Huizi said slyly with a slight smile, sliding her silky, nylon-clad slender leg into Aoyama Xiu Xin’s lap as she spoke: "I’ll come forward to request your help to cover up this case’s connection to the Civilian Corps. In this way, you get your revenge, and the Corps still has to thank you. I’ll weaken a competitor and prove that my strategy is the right one. It’s a win-win."
"You sly, big sly fox!" Aoyama Xiu Xin suddenly had an epiphany and pointed at her.
Tangong Huizi withdrew her foot, bent down, and crept under the table, leaning between Aoyama Xiu Xin’s legs with a sultry look, and spoke in a breathy voice, "That’s why you have to help me."
"What do I get out of it? Is it just about letting off steam?" Aoyama Xiu Xin caressed her flawless cheek and slowly brought the wine glass to her lips.
Tangong Huizi dutifully opened her mouth to drink.
Aoyama Xiu Xin set down the glass and picked up the elegant bottle, pouring from above. Tangong Huizi hurriedly tilted her head up to catch the wine, but still, a good amount spilled onto her face, making her appear wet and juicy.
The scene looked particularly salacious.
"Sigh, other than myself, I really don’t have much else to offer you. You wouldn’t care for the president of the Heaven Club, but what about the head of the Civilian Corps?"
Tangong Huizi, her waist slender like a snake, wriggled from under the table into Aoyama Xiu Xin’s arms, her arms hooking around his neck.
"Don’t paint me a pie in the sky. If you became the leader of the Civilian Corps in Japan and South Korea, would you still be willing to grovel at my feet?" Aoyama Xiu Xin said disdainfully.
He liked to paint a pie in the sky but hated to hold out for one.
Tangong Huizi replied cheerfully, pushing him onto the tatami and leaning close to his ear, whispering breathlessly, "Becoming the leader is a long process. During this process, you won’t stand still either. As long as Police Chief Aoyama keeps his strength above mine, there’s no need to worry about me turning on you. Or are you suggesting you can’t even keep one woman like me under control?"
That was the first time she’d revealed her ambition.
"Women differ from each other; most women are dependent on men, while some want to ride on top of men," Aoyama Xiu Xin said with a smile.
Tangong Huizi giggled lightly, feigning innocence, "But right now, I’m also able to ride on top of you, right?"
"Naughty," Aoyama Xiu Xin laughed heartily.
Tangong Huizi said, "Although most of the officials controlled by our Corps are useless, quantity can cause a change in quality, which can still be of help to you. Plus, we also have many businesses. If you help me, and I help you, we’ll cooperate as equals, to the benefit of us both. Wouldn’t that be nice?"
"I remember you didn’t use to be so ambitious," Aoyama Xiu Xin asked curiously.
Tangong Huizi answered seriously, "What you said before was right. Scheming with these wretches won’t lead our equality movement to success. I want to develop the Corps following my thoughts, to fight for the Korean people’s rights following my strategy. To achieve this, I have to become the leader."
"As long as you help me, all Koreans in Japan can become a force at your disposal."
"So you’re selling out your compatriots?"
"If I can sell them for a good price and improve our lives, I think they’d be willing," Tangong Huizi said nonchalantly with a smile.
"Pleasure doing business with you," Aoyama Xiu Xin said.
Tangong Huizi’s smile bloomed as she leaned in for a kiss.
Then the two delved deeper into discussing the details of their cooperation.
