"Senior, you’re looking so handsome today!" Kasahara Asuka gazed at him intently, the more she looked, the more she found him attractive. Her eyes involuntarily narrowed, "How about going to get our ears pierced after the meeting and wearing couple earrings with Asuka?"
"No way!" Fujiwara Reya’s face turned cold.
Help me!
Piercing ears, wearing earrings, and they’re couple earrings at that.
These three things, not a single one could he accept.
Kasahara Asuka’s gaze dropped to his round earlobes, "If senior doesn’t accompany Asuka to get earrings, then Asuka will pack up tonight and move into that bakery, so you can’t enjoy a couple’s world with that Yukino!"
"She’s not my lover, so come if you want, it won’t work on me." Fujiwara Reya corrected her, thinking that if she mentioned moving into the Empress, then he’d be really worried.
"Damn it!"
Kasahara Asuka cursed softly.
The girl’s pink cheeks immediately puffed up slightly, as if she had stuffed two little dumplings in her mouth, very cute. Her fierce expression was like a little tiger, adorably fierce.
"Grr~"
The tiger roared.
She feigned to pounce.
"Hands off!" Fujiwara Reya directly pressed down on her shoulder, holding her in place.
Knowing each other for a long time, there was no way he didn’t know what kind of person the Little Devil Junior was. With so many people today, especially with Hoshimi Rinko present, she must have been thinking about sticking close to her senior in front of everyone to confirm they were a little couple.
Whether she liked Fujiwara Reya, that was still unclear.
But to openly NTR Hoshimi Rinko, Kasahara Asuka wanted to do that more than anyone else.
Pressed on the shoulder, the Little Devil Junior looked up at the senior’s picturesque brows and eyes with some reluctance: "Senior~~ won’t you go get earrings with Asuka?"
"No way!"
"Senior, I’ll cry for you to see."
"Go ahead and cry."
As soon as these words came out, Kasahara Asuka immediately sat down on the ground.
"Waa waa waa~ Senior, you’re so heartless," she rubbed her eyes with both hands, crying with a sweet voice, "Why won’t you accompany Asuka to wear couple earrings, is it because you have someone else outside, so you hate Asuka now? Waa, bad guy..."
Five or six thousand eyes immediately turned this way.
On the wooden floor, the skirt spread out like a flower, the little witch sat in the center of the flower, her voice pitiful, her posture incomparably cute.
Fujiwara Reya felt.
Now, it seemed... several thousand people were calling him a scumbag in their hearts.
"Alright, alright, get up quickly." Although Fujiwara Reya felt very troubled, he could only extend a hand, "Accompanying you to get earrings is okay, right?"
"They have to be couple earrings."
"Fine, fine..."
Kasahara Asuka put her hand down, looked up at him.
Her eyes slightly brightened, a little shy, a little playful, then she snorted, her smile blossomed like a flower.
In the audience, Hoshimi Rinko bit her little canine tooth, her face turning green.
Beside her, a few people couldn’t help but feel a chill, quickly getting up to move far away in fear.
On the high platform.
Mrs. Kasahara leaned over and whispered something in Mrs. Hoshimi’s ear.
Then, Mrs. Hoshimi looked at her daughter.
That expression, as if to blame her, even hinted "You were the one who started it, how did it end up like this?"
Thus.
Hoshimi Rinko’s face turned even greener.
The second round of voting was completed, the final results were compiled and delivered to Chairman Kasahara, who presided over today’s meeting.
The hall quieted down again, all eyes focused on this elegant woman, waiting for her to announce the results.
A gentle breeze blew by, causing the candle in the lantern to flicker slightly, Mrs. Kasahara raised an eyebrow, her face still beautiful, always exuding a captivating charm.
"1356 votes, against."
"302 votes, abstain."
"186 votes, in favor—"
The final note faded with a hint of coldness.
Mrs. Kasahara stood up seriously, her gaze casually scanning the directors who voted in favor.
In an instant, the air in the hall seemed to be pushed out by frost, everyone felt a chill. Everyone knew why the Chairman was like this.
With the four Chairmen clearly supporting Asakusa Shrine, anyone voting in favor was clearly saying they had been bought or were deliberately opposing the four Chairmen. Even the directors who voted to abstain felt a bit of terror, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire.
After a moment, Mrs. Kasahara suddenly smiled.
Her smile was like the whole world returning from the brink of doom.
"The decision to expel Asakusa Shrine has not been passed after the directors’ vote. Any directors with objections, please stand up to speak." The dignified announcement made, Mrs. Kasahara lightly dusted her sleeves and with grace sat back down, her brows slightly raised in hidden anger.
The directors who had planned to oppose with their dissenting votes now shrank back.
Everyone was smart.
They were all at an age where preserving their lives as long as they could was more important than anything else.
A bunch of unreliable scoundrels... Chief Priest Fujishima trembled with anger. Those people had accepted his money, drank his wine, professed loyalty louder than the Prime Minister himself, yet now not one stood up, performing an invisible act like a ninja!
Scoundrels, scoundrels!
He cursed through clenched teeth a few times, then directed his gaze across to Palace Master Kougi, seeing his old rival looking indifferent, he cursed a few more times before getting up from his seat with a sullen face.
"Honorable Chairmen, I have an objection!"
Mrs. Kasahara didn’t even lift an eyelid: "Please go ahead."
"Regarding the issue of Asakusa Shrine, I feel it shouldn’t have been discussed in the first round." Director Fujishima calmed down, looking at the middle towards Fujiwara Reya, his expression cold, "The issue we should be discussing more is whether Fujiwara Reya is a demon and what to do with him."
"Fine!" Kasahara nodded slightly, her gaze falling below, "Does any director have an explanation or evidence regarding Fujiwara Reya’s identity?"
Many directors remained silent, observing the developments, then began to whisper discussions with their peers.
Amidst buzzing whispers, Chief Priest Fujishima glanced all around, his previously angry and slightly panicked mindset slowly calming down. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Haha!
He couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.
No director stood up for Asakusa Shrine, indicating it was entirely unpopular.
Even if by luck it remained this time, it would continue to face countless rumors and endless criticism in the future. The future of Asakusa Shrine would remain the same, an anomaly in Shintoism, viewed as an inauspicious existence!
Chief Priest Fujishima’s schemes were well made.
As long as the infamy of Asakusa Shrine wasn’t cleared, it couldn’t return to its former glory. The seat of Chairman would naturally remain vacant, and as long as no one occupied it, he would have ample time to plot.
Of course, Fujiwara Reya knew this too.
But everyone had held their prejudices for a long time, he couldn’t change them quickly. Seeing those over a thousand directors whispering away, he didn’t feel discouraged, just encouraged himself in his heart: Even if prejudice is like a mountain, one day, he will move it.
However.
Just as Chief Priest Fujishima was being entertained by his thoughts.
"Everyone, this old monk has something to say."
Among the directors, an old monk in pure white robes slowly stood up.
Fujiwara Reya’s gaze turned a bit surprised, but also somewhat expected.
That old monk was the Shankoku Temple Abbot.
The father of Ikeda Aoshu.
Fujiwara Reya felt a warmth rising.
The seemingly immovable mountain had already started to shift.
