Chapter 158: The Banquet Part 7
’Hm? Isn’t that Yukinoshita Yukino? She’s also at this banquet? And what’s with that cold stare? As if I owe her a huge sum of money or committed an unforgivable crime.’
Ren observed the crowd in the bustling hall, his gaze inadvertently falling on Yukino’s figure standing somewhat on the periphery.
’Does that girl even have brains? The stereotype of big-breasted girls being brainless clearly doesn’t apply to her, considering her chest isn’t even a B-cup.’
’Here I am, clearly one of the most important people at this banquet, being hosted by one of the four largest conglomerates, yet she still dares to show her dislike so openly? Can’t she at least pretend to be a little hypocritical like her older sister, who keeps smiling and sucking up to everyone? What a weird girl.’
Being antagonized for no apparent reason, Ren felt a slight annoyance at the blatant hostility in Yukino’s gaze towards him.
"Gan’an-san, have you ever heard of the Yukinoshita Family?" Ren asked casually, his gaze momentarily flicking back towards Yukino.
Gan’an seemed to think for a moment, his brow furrowing slightly before he shook his head.
"The Yukinoshita Family? Forgive me, Ren-sama. This is the first time I’ve heard of them."
Clearly, the Yukinoshita Family was just a locally influential power in Chiba City. It was no wonder that Gan’an, who dealt with tycoons and national-level figures, wasn’t familiar with the name. He felt a slight curiosity as to why Ren suddenly mentioned that family name.
’Could Ren-sama have a specific plan regarding the Yukinoshita Family?’
In his calculating mind, only two possibilities came to mind: crushing the Yukinoshita Family into pieces or making them prosperous and powerful under his patronage.
