"Young master, a free experience voucher for Wakura Onsen-kyo! This is amazing! My friends and I have wanted to go so many times but we couldn't bear to spend money on it! It's free, a free experience voucher!"
Luo Chen's lips twitched slightly, and he turned his head speechlessly to remind her, "Murasame-sensei, you've lost your composure. Can you please not be swayed by a few trial vouchers?"
Teacher Murasame came to his senses and gave an embarrassed smile: "Sorry, young master."
"It's not just a few, there are 100 in total," Hinatsuru Akina reminded her.
Murasame-sensei: "Hoo~! Hoo~! Hoo~!"
My breathing has become heavy!
No, no, no, if I stay here any longer, I'll lose control again!
Ms. Murasame blushed slightly, bowed apologetically to the young master Luo Chen and Hinatsuru Akina, and then withdrew.
Luo Chen rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Madam Chuhe."
"It's ok."
Hinatsuru Akina smiled faintly and said with an air of elegance, "Then, young master, may I bring my daughter out?"
The gift was delivered, and the daughter took it away.
For her, today's goal was very simple.
Luo Chen gently shook his head: "Not for now."
Hinatsuru Akina's breath hitched, and her gaze toward Luo Chen tightened slightly, hinting that she was ready to turn hostile at any moment!
Can't you speak properly? What does this guy mean?!
That's her daughter!!
Luo Chen explained, "Lady Chuhe, please don't get agitated. This is what I'm thinking: since your daughter likes shogi so much, why don't you just give her a chance..."
"no!"
Hinatsuru Ayana abruptly stopped Luo Chen, her face turning completely cold, devoid of her previous composure and magnanimity, and said indifferently, "She cannot learn shogi!"
"Lady Hina-Crane..." Luo Chen tried to add something extra.
"Shut up!" Hinatsuru Akina took two steps forward, choking Luo Chen. Although shorter than Luo Chen, her imposing manner was no less when she looked up at him, her eyes sharp and fierce. She said, word by word, "You can learn anything, but shogi is one thing you absolutely cannot! Not even if it kills you!!!"
Luo Chen was at a loss. Just as he had imagined, this lady was very difficult to deal with and basically impossible to persuade.
After finishing speaking, Hinatsuru Akina retreated again, nodded slightly to Luo Chen, and regained her composure.
"I apologize, young master of Adachi JS Research Institute. I apologize for my earlier offense. Please bring my daughter out now."
Luo Chen thought to himself, if this continues, let alone getting that elementary school student, Hina Tsuru, to stay here for another 50 hours, it would be difficult even for a minute.
We have to change our strategy, say something else… um, let’s try saying something else.
You should at least give yourself three days to take advantage of the deals.
"Mrs. Hinatsuru, I think you may have misunderstood me."
Luo Chen changed his tune, first agreeing with her, and then said, "I know you must have your reasons for not letting your daughter learn shogi, and I won't offend you by asking questions. At the same time, I fully support you."
Hinatsuru Akina frowned, staring intently at Luo Chen, wondering what trick this guy was up to now.
If she hadn't been wary of the power behind the young master of the Adachi Ward JS Research Institute, she would have already called her bodyguards in to find someone.
Why bother talking so much to Luo Chen?
She is clearly Hinatsuru Ai's mother, yet she has to argue with a stranger over her daughter.
"However, Lady Hinatsuru."
Luo Chen took a light breath, raised his head, and solemnly declared, "I have a dream: that no child will ever experience a childhood filled with disappointment!"
Chapter 20 Deceive, Deceive as hard as you can!
Hinatsuru Ayana showed a slightly surprised expression, and for a moment she was really shocked, staring blankly at Luo Chen.
But immediately, his brows furrowed again.
This guy, after saying so much, what does he really mean? He just doesn't want to return her daughter, right?
Just as Hinatsuru Akina was pondering again whether or not to fall out with the young master of this local tyrant family.
Luo Chen smiled and turned his head, saying, "Mrs. Chuhe, have you ever heard Carson McCain say something like this?"
A child's young mind is a very delicate organ.
A cruel beginning will twist their minds into a grotesque shape.
The heart of a wounded child will wither away like this, hardening like a peach pit for life, filled with deep furrows.
Hinatsuru Akina's brows furrowed deeper and deeper as she stared coldly at Luo Chen and asked, "Are you saying that as a mother, am I doing something out of love?"
"of course not."
Luo Chen shook his head and said sincerely, "I just wanted to indirectly hint to Madam how important it is to have a childhood that is not constantly distorted by external forces."
Hinatsuru Akina's aura suddenly became terrifying!
Of course not, of course not! But when you say such things, aren't you clearly pointing your finger at me and insulting me?
Luo Chen seemed oblivious, as if absorbed in his own world, and continued, "I had a bad childhood, so I understand it very well now."
Hinatsuru Ayana's imposing aura dissipated, and she instead sneered, looking at Luo Chen and saying, "But the young master seems quite good now."
"is it?"
Luo Chen glanced at Hinatsuru Akina with surprise, thought for a moment, and nodded with a hint of relief, "Finally, I can be recognized as a normal person by others. That's great."
This statement shows that Luo Chen's acting was spot-on.
Even someone as strong as Hinatsuru Akina suddenly felt a chill and took a step back in front of Luo Chen.
Does this guy have some hidden attribute?
"Don't be afraid, Madam. My problem only flares up when I'm extremely rejected, distrusted, and treated coldly by others," Luo Chen comforted her.
Hinatsuru Akina closed her eyes and lowered her gaze, remaining silent and choosing to quiet down for the time being, while harboring deep suspicions.
She only seems to have a problem when she's being extremely criticized by others. Is this guy threatening her?
Luo Chen smiled and said, "So, Mrs. Hinatsuru, it's really important to have a childhood that isn't entirely filled with disappointment. I'm not saying this to make Hinatsuru Ai stay in our JS Research Institute forever, but simply from a sense of righteousness. Even if you really don't want her to learn shogi, then so be it, but at least give her a few days, even if it's just a short time, to have some happiness, right?"
"Hoo~!" Hinatsuru Akina's hands, which were resting lightly on her legs, clenched slowly and involuntarily.
"Has the wavering begun? Good news." Luo Chen narrowed his eyes and quickly turned to wave at Murasame-sensei, who was hiding far away.
"Young master's family."
Teacher Murasame asked in a low voice.
"Go find Momoko Akane and have her arrange a dessert for me as quickly as possible, with the theme 'Childhood'," Luo Chen instructed.
“Akanekubo Momo…” Murasame-sensei looked bewildered.
"It's that Tao Tao!" Luo Chen reminded him.
"Ok."
Teacher Murasame nodded gently and turned to go about her business.
Luo Chen then turned around and called out to Hinatsuru Akina again: "Lady Hinatsuru! Lady Hinatsuru?"
Hinatsuru Akina opened her eyes, her gaze expressionless and still cold. She nodded calmly: "What you said makes some sense. I understand. When I get back, I will spend two days practicing shogi with Ai."
Luo Chen: "???"
Are you kidding me?! I've wasted so much breath on you, just so you could fulfill her childhood dream?
Even if it's to be completed, it has to be done in my JavaScript research department!
Hinatsuru Akina raised an eyebrow with a hint of doubt and looked at Luo Chen, asking, "Young Master, your expression seems off. Do you doubt that I will do it?"
As she spoke, her expression turned grim again, filled with a furious rage!
As a mother, she can be corrected by a stranger on how to raise her daughter, but to doubt her competence is an insult to her dignity!
"Of course not..." Luo Chen forced a smile and gestured, "Madam Chuhe, why don't we go inside and talk? It's not appropriate to stand here for too long."
Hinatsuru Akina pondered for a moment; it seemed that the young master had something else he wanted to say to her.
Besides, she had indeed been standing at their door for far too long. If she had stayed any longer, what difference would it have made from disrupting the event?
"excuse me."
Hinatsuru Ayana nodded slightly, placed her hands on her lower abdomen in greeting, and then followed Luo Chen to a small reception room.
The room was small; in the large room, there was only an antique sandalwood square table and a few cushions.
Luo Chen went over and sat down cross-legged.
Hinatsuru Akina had no choice but to take off her shoes, walk over in clean white socks, and kneel down opposite Luo Chen.
"Tea, please."
Luo Chen brewed a pot of fresh pre-rain tea and poured a cup for Hina Tsuru.
"Young master, please speak quickly. My family's hot spring inn still has many things to deal with."
