As Xiaolan and Ye were going to pay their respects, Ye Ling drove with them to the shrine. Hiraji and Conan were dragged over to pray for blessings. Ye Ling was not interested in this, so she stood at the side and watched the scenery.
"Ye Ling, aren't you going to pray?" Lan asked curiously.
Ye Ling smiled and shook her head." I don't believe this.”
"Are you an atheist?" asked Hiraji. Or a materialist?"
"I believe in God, but in my eyes, God is a programmer.”Ye Ling answered.
Everyone was stunned. God was a programmer? What a strange way of saying it.
……
After the blessing, everyone was about to leave the shrine when suddenly, as if they had met a familiar face, Hiraji called out to a man beside him in surprise,"Eh? Uncle Zhongsong, why are you here?”
Ye Ling looked over when he heard what Hiraji said. He was surprised because the so-called Uncle Shigatsu was the steward of the Forest Garden Estate, Akio Shigatsu, who had entrusted Ye Ling to " break up the couple ".
Wait a minute! Ye Ling suddenly remembered something. He had mentioned in the car that he had come to Tokyo to attend his mother's wedding. He said that the son of his mother's classmate was getting married. So it was that case…
Ye Ling finally understood.
Steward Shigematsu had just received a call at the edge of the shrine and was about to enter the shrine when he heard Hiraji's greeting halfway. He was first stunned, then shocked. "Eh? Isn't this Hiraji? Why are you in Tokyo?"
"My mother injured her foot, so she asked me to attend the wedding in her place.”
"Who is this person?" Kazuya asked, puzzled.”
"She's the housekeeper of my mother's classmate's husband's family.”Taira replied.
At this time, Shigatsu also turned his gaze to the person beside Hiraji. When he saw Ye Ling, he could not help but be shocked." Detective Ye Ling?”He did not expect to meet Ye Ling here.
"Eh? Do you know each other?" Ping Ji asked in surprise. Conan also looked over in confusion.
Ye Ling smiled." He asked me to handle some small matters.”
Just as Hiraji was about to ask for more details, a young woman walked out of the shrine. The woman was in her early twenties, with shoulder-length hair and a cute appearance. She ran over when she saw Butler Chongsong.
"Uncle Zhongsong, I'm done here.”
"And this is?" Ping Ji pointed at the woman and asked Zhong Song.
"She's Kaede Kataniya, the one who's marrying Young Master Chrysanthemum tomorrow."”
"Hello." Lil Feng politely nodded and greeted everyone, and everyone responded.
Ye Ling couldn't help but look at her a few more times. Although Ye Ling had been busy preparing for Lil Feng to cancel the engagement, this was actually the first time she saw Lil Feng. She had seen Lil Feng's photo before, but it was only a childhood photo.
Now that she saw it with her own eyes, Lil Feng's behavior was indeed dignified and extraordinary. No wonder the Forest Garden Chrysanthemum Man fell in love with her at first sight. However, Ye Ling guessed that the number of women that the scumbag fell in love with at first sight could probably line up on the street. After all, even the maids in the house were not left behind.
Zhong Song reminded Lil Feng," By the way, Lil Feng, your dad called me just now. He said that he tried to contact you, but your phone couldn't reach him.”
"Ah?" Lil Feng hurriedly took out her phone from her bag and realized that it was out of battery." Oh no, my phone is out of battery…Uncle Chongsong, what did my dad call you about?”
"Nothing. I'm just concerned about you." Zhong Song revealed a genuine smile.
Seeing his smile, Ye Ling had already guessed the answer. Kimura-san Katagiri probably wanted to call his daughter at first to tell her that the engagement could be canceled without any scruples, but he couldn't get through, so he called Butler Shigatsu to tell him to pass on the message. Zhong Song was naturally happy from the bottom of his heart when he learned of this matter, but he did not say it out loud in front of outsiders.
After all, she was here to attend the wedding banquet, but she suddenly told him that she wasn't getting married. Wouldn't that be a joke? Both the man and the woman were from wealthy families and valued their reputation. Therefore, even if the engagement was canceled, they would definitely have to think of a suitable reason to announce it to the public. Otherwise, no matter which party broke the contract, it would cause a bad influence.
It couldn't be helped. Wealthy families were just so troublesome.
……
Zhong Song invited everyone to visit the Senyuan family, so Ye Ling drove them to the Senyuan House. Last time, Ye Ling came in quietly. This time, she came in openly. It felt completely different.
Entering the courtyard from the door, Zhong Song was chatting and laughing with everyone. Although Xiao Feng was smiling all along, Ye Ling could tell that she was forcing a smile. After all, she did not know about the annulment of the engagement.
At the entrance of the villa, there was a young male servant in work clothes standing. Everyone saw him, and he also saw everyone. However, he stared at Lil Feng for a moment before turning around and leaving.
"Hmm? Who was that person just now?" asked Hiraji.
"His name is Sakuraba Yuji, a male servant of the Senyuan Prefecture.”Zhong Song replied. When he said this, there was a hint of guilt in his eyes, but then he seemed to have thought of something, and the guilt disappeared and turned into joy.
Kaede had just exchanged glances with Sakuraba Yuji. When she saw Yuji turn around and leave, a deep sorrow appeared on her face.
Suddenly, a female voice sounded," Butler Chongsong, I heard that you went to pick up my sister-in-law. Speaking of which, which of these three beauties is my sister-in-law? They look pretty good to me."
The person who spoke was a woman with a fashionable puff hairstyle. Her gaze swept between Xiao Feng, Xiao Lan, and Ye Xiao. "Eldest Miss, this is Miss Xiao Feng." The others are guests."
"Hello, my name is Yuriko Morino, the elder sister of Chrysanthemum Man.”The woman greeted him with a smile.
"Hello," Everyone responded.
Yuriko sized up Lil 'Feng from head to toe and seemed very satisfied. Seeing that Lil' Feng was very nervous, she smiled and said,""Don't worry. I usually live abroad and won't meddle in your business.”
……
The arrival of Ye Ling and the others was received by the family head, Mikio Morisen. He was a man with a full beard and looked very dignified. When he found out that Taira was the son of his wife's classmate, he couldn't help but sigh."Sigh, my wife passed away in a car accident a few years ago. Ever since then, Chrysanthemum has been depressed. It was only when he met Lil Feng that he pulled himself together…"
He was just lamenting that his son and Lil Feng were a match made in heaven. However, Ye Ling felt nauseous listening to him. Your son is unhappy? I see your son playing with the maid in private!
Ye Ling already knew that Mikio Morino had installed surveillance cameras everywhere in the villa. It was impossible for him not to know about his son and the maid. Therefore, it was obvious that he deliberately told Xiao Feng about it. He knew that Lil Feng was a little resistant to marrying a chrysanthemum man, so he planned to move her with emotion and reason. After all, girls were soft-hearted.
As expected, Lil Feng's expression became very complicated after hearing that.
Ye Ling couldn't help but sigh. Kindness can be cruel sometimes...
