Chapter 252 Hua Lantian Comes to Visit (3)

In the dining room of an ordinary Japanese-style rental apartment which is very suitable for single people (of course it is very likely that the dining room and the kitchen are together), two handsome men sat down face to face one after another. They were naturally Hua Lantian and Amuro Toru.

Out of basic curiosity, Amuro Toru suddenly remembered that no matter what his other identity was, at least he was a super rich man on the surface, so he raised the question of the soul.

"Come to think of it, Brother Hua, you don't have any feelings for my family, especially since we're eating in this kitchen-cum-dining room...?"

Hua Lantian looked at Amuro Toru in surprise. He didn't expect him to ask this question. Shouldn't he ask something more important at this time? But he didn't think much about it. He guessed that Amuro Toru wanted to proceed step by step. Then Hua Lantian responded to him with a smile.

"Well, how should I put it? Amuro-san, you mean the house is a little small? That's fine, after all. Since we're here, we should make the best of it. Besides, we should live the life that suits us. People shouldn't always be picky and fickle. That way, they won't get what truly satisfies them. Of course, Amuro-san thinks I'm being unreasonable, that's fine. It's just my personal opinion...!"

Hua Lantian's answer made Amuro Toru feel that it was worth learning, especially since Hua Lantian translated it into both his native Chinese and their Japanese language and explained it in detail.

But for Toru Amuro, being satisfied with the present or what he already has is not his idea, at least not at the moment, because his ultimate dream is to protect the country he loves, so he inevitably started that serious topic with Hua Lantian.

"Brother Hua, do you think we should make those things in the world that endanger the things you love disappear...?"

Hua Lantian, who was eating pasta slowly, almost choked and sucked the noodles into his nose. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and adjusted himself.

Amuro Toru's shocking words left Hua Lantian at a loss for how to respond. He had never expected that he would actually ask him directly whether he was an enemy or a friend. His brain raced, thinking of some of the lines he had prepared before coming here, as well as some of his own ideas. He then put down his cutlery, looked directly at Amuro Toru, and said slowly:

"Brother Amuro, first of all, let me prove myself. We are not enemies, at least not yet. I'm sure you already know that I'm not just this world-renowned genius stock god, but also have other public identities. Otherwise, how about I cut to the chase...?"

After saying that, Hua Lantian just looked at Toru Amuro, ready to wait for his answer and see how to cooperate with him next. As for getting rid of Toru Amuro, he certainly had not thought about such a thing.

"Oh~ Not an enemy...! Okay, then, Brother Hua, please keep your story short. I'm all ears...!"

A gleam of light flashed in Toru Amuro's eyes. The key point he grasped was whether it was an enemy. As for the two words at the moment, he ignored them. As long as it was not the enemy at the moment, it would be fine. Otherwise, he had not figured out how to deal with this person who suddenly appeared and whom he could not see through, so as to prevent him from causing trouble and harming his lover (this country).

"Of course, I have to tell Amuro-san, but, uh, before that, why don't we eat this pasta first? Not to mention that it won't taste good if it gets cold, and this is noodles..."

Hua Lantian pointed at the two people's pasta in a somewhat foolish manner, which suddenly embarrassed Amuro Toru, and then gestured for them to start eating together...
