Of course, Natsume Hanae never intended to become the apparent owner of the Natsume Zaibatsu.
However, in addition to the five major branches, the Xia Rizong residence also has countless smaller branches.
Taking down all those smaller branches would greatly enhance the completion of the system's main quest, "Seize the entire Summer Zaibatsu."
However, it is clearly unrealistic to try to retake them one by one.
If possible, she wanted to accumulate as much power as possible to prepare for the battle against Susanoo.
Therefore, completing the main quest is essential.
As for why she cannot be a publicly recognized candidate for head of the family, someone else can.
A plan popped into Xia Rihua's mind.
Make Natsumi Rinrei a candidate for head of the family, and let him compete with Natsumi Yasutora for the position.
This is a prophecy between the dragon and the tiger, and even if the leaders of other branches have some doubts, they will probably believe it to some extent.
And Natsumi Rinrei herself is her daughter, and also a derivative of her power.
When the three major branches support and enthrone Natsumi Rinri as the head of the family, even if the other two major branches support Natsumi Genryu, the result is still suppressive.
This will inevitably lead to some smaller branches supporting Natsumi Rinrei, who is actually a girl.
At that time, the main storyline progress bar for Summer Flower Painting will also increase rapidly.
Once the three major branches and most of the smaller branches support Xia Rilinli as a candidate for head of the family, then no matter how much Xia Yuanliu resists, it will be to no avail.
Through long-term observation, Natsumi Hanae has come to know her father quite well.
My father was the primary reason for this.
It was the prosperity and flourishing of the chaebols in summer.
With the support of the three major branches, Natsumi Rinrei has become an extremely robust trunk on the Natsumi Zaibatsu tree!
Forcibly cutting it off will bring endless troubles.
That would lead to a sharp decline in the power of the Summer Zaibatsu.
This is something Xia Yuanliu cannot accept.
It's important to understand that even the marriage between Natsumi Hanae and Natsumi Rinrei, which was treated like a commodity, was solely for the purpose of expanding the Natsumi Zaibatsu's reserves of extraordinary resources.
It's just a means to strengthen the Summer Zaibatsu (a powerful financial conglomerate).
If it weren't for the marriage proposed by the Kujo Zaibatsu, those abundant extraordinary resources would have been lost.
According to Xia Yuanliu's plan, Xia Huahui and Xia Linli are more likely to recruit two potential A-level ability users from outside as their sons-in-law.
After all, with such stunning beauty and the bloodline of summer, the superhuman talents born from them would definitely be extraordinary.
"Ahh~"
at this time.
Chisato covered his mouth and yawned, pulling Natsumi Hanae back to reality.
Then she spoke.
"Mom, it's getting late, I should rest too."
"I feel so tired after dealing with Shiranui and the others."
Chikyu's eyelids drooped, his beautiful golden eyes filled with weariness, but a hint of cunning also surfaced.
She took a few steps toward the door.
But he suddenly stopped, staggered twice, and looked like he was about to fall to the ground.
Summer Flower pursed her cherry lips, a hint of helplessness appearing in her beautiful red glass eyes. She manipulated her power and pulled on Chikari Makoto.
"thanks Mom."
"Maybe it's because I trained too much today, plus the time I was playing around with Shiranui-neechan earlier, I feel like I might not make it to the Thousand Hunting Clan's territory."
"I want...I want..."
As she spoke, Chikyu touched her index fingers together, her golden eyes darting around, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her originally fair face.
However, a resolute look then appeared on her face, allowing her to finish speaking.
"I want to rest on my mother's bed for a while, and return to the Thousand Hunt tribe's territory once I've regained some strength."
"Is it okay, Mom?"
Summer Flower Painting: "..."
This flimsy excuse, this utterly clueless acting.
This is the acting of a triangle that didn't graduate from Xiahuoshan; it's quite clumsy.
However, looking at Chikuri Makoto's pretty face, which appeared slightly more youthful compared to the others, Natsumi Hanae pursed her cherry lips.
The youngest daughter, who is also the one who has been with her the longest, always receives some preferential treatment.
"it is good."
she said softly.
Upon hearing this, Chisato's eyes practically overflowed with joy, shining brightly.
She never expected that her mother would actually agree to her request.
She had originally planned that if her mother didn't agree, she would lie on the ground and refuse to move.
In fact, Chikari Makoto originally did not want to use such radical methods.
However, when she saw Hoshikawa Oto return with gifts from her shopping trip, and the return of the Moon Sisters, she was overjoyed.
This gave Chikari a long-lost sense of urgency.
You should know that in the very beginning, she was the one who stayed by her mother's side all the time.
However, this role of companionship is now being taken away.
Her relationship with her mother has made no progress whatsoever.
It's time to unleash your ultimate weapon!
A mere thousand feather style, ten thousand feather style, or a hundred million feather style is nothing.
The ultimate technique is...
—Zhao Yu Style: Rebellion Against My Exquisite Mother!
Chikari pursed her pink lips. According to what she read in the comic book, adult relatives should not share a bed and should be kept separate.
If family members share a bed after they grow up, it implies a certain indescribable... relationship.
I gaze at Xia Rihua, who is resting with her eyes closed on the bed.
Chikuri took a deep breath.
Her maid outfit began to change according to her wishes. Since unlocking the golden feathers all over her body, her clothes were also made of golden feathers, which was incredibly convenient.
The maid outfit quickly turned into a white nightgown.
She walked with slightly stiff steps to the bedside and slipped into the covers.
And right next to her, there was the warmth of her skin, so close to the summer floral paintings.
Seeing this, Natsumi Hanae pursed her cherry lips slightly, smiled, and affectionately stroked Chikari's golden hair.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but her hair didn't feel as good as it used to; it seemed thinner.
Perhaps recently, Chishou has really been exhausted.
After all, before, Kuchiki Mei wasn't fully mature and Chikari Makoto had to guide her, and Chikari Makoto himself also had his own tasks.
Adding them together is indeed very tiring.
Lying next to Natsumi Hanae, Chikari Makoto had her eyes closed, but her eyelashes were still fluttering.
Her mind was racing with thoughts.
She rolled up countless plans, and although she said she was just going to lie down for a while, she was determined not to leave tonight and would sleep soundly until dawn!
However, there should be some means to increase intimacy.
You need to keep using it at night.
but……
Those comics only taught her what to do after reaching the maximum intimacy level, but didn't tell her how to increase intimacy!
As my thoughts became increasingly complicated.
Chikari felt Natsumi's hand being stroked on her head, and unconsciously reached out to take Natsumi's hand.
It felt incredibly soft and delicate, and filled with a sun-like warmth, making it extremely comfortable.
"Mother……"
"I like you the most."
"I don't want to give you... to someone else."
