I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2307 - 1464: Sisters (2)

She wasn't unintelligent.

The words spoken were entirely audible to her!

Naturally.

She wasn't one to possess a petty mindset, nor was she easily swayed by just anyone. Her parents had instilled in her from a young age that such matters were a grave taboo. However, this woman, hailing from a Japanese family with a century of history, was simply too captivating.

It was as if a demon had adopted a human guise.

A mere upward glance as she passed by was enough to disrupt her composure.

A woman like this was unequivocally born to ensnare men, a walking aphrodisiac far exceeding the pretentiousness of Pei Yunxi!

Shi Qianxi firmly believed that if this particular woman so desired, no man on Earth could possibly withstand her allure, including the man currently seated serenely beside her!

Impossible.

Observing the unfolding situation.

Who could truly ascertain what had transpired?

Despite his consistent display of gentlemanly conduct towards her, Shi Qianxi harbored no genuine belief that he was truly a gentleman!

The adversaries in the courtyard had yet to be fully dealt with, and now, abruptly, a specter-like woman emerged from the shadows.

Director Shi had been in excellent spirits earlier that day, but that mood had vanished. The fact that she refrained from directly confronting the individual was a testament to her choosing the higher ground, considering the dignity of her nation.

"Did Miss Fujiwara grace Apang Palace with her presence merely to sit?"

Jiang Chen remained deliberately silent.

However, Shi Qianxi was not one to yield easily; she who dared to challenge Princess Cao, why would she harbor trepidation towards a mere spectral woman?

She had indeed heard of the Fujiwara Family, but what significance did that hold?

There existed no business dealings between them and Jinhai.

Jinhai had never conducted trade with Japan.

"I came to converse with Jiang Sang."

Fujiwara Reiki presented herself with politeness and amiability, yet even Jiang Chen could discern the underlying sharpness in her tone.

He was well aware of Shi Qianxi's temperament.

But was this exotic beauty truly someone so imprudent?

Voluntarily approaching and taking a seat, confronting directly with no apparent escape route, could she truly be feeling unwell?

If her health was in question, she ought to return home and rest early!

What purpose was served by lingering in this place?

"Oh? Converse about what? I would be interested to hear as well."

Shi Qianxi's smile was already tinged with a palpable aggression.

Fujiwara Reiki maintained the demeanor of a traditional Japanese woman, radiating gentleness and humility, and responded, "My apologies, Miss Shi, as this matter pertains to national secrets, it is therefore... inconvenient to disclose."

"Indeed, matters of national secret."

Jiang Chen immediately interjected, nodding in agreement as he spoke, making a conscious effort to affirm that her statement was an objective truth, not merely a fabricated excuse.

"I understand."

Shi Qianxi's smile remained radiant. "Then, please, proceed with your discussion."

With those words, Shi Qianxi gracefully stood, vacated her seat, and then casually informed Jiang Chen, "I shall await you in the room."

Uh.

Although this was a personal affair and not a matter of national security, one ought not to utter such phrases in the presence of a third party!

"What are you doing?!"

With Shi Qianxi's departure, Jiang Chen's mood did not improve in the slightest; he immediately directed his query at Fujiwara Reiki.

He was aware that Shi Qianxi had not simply left, pretending nothing had occurred, and that she might well contact Li Shuru without delay.

"Li Ji merely wishes to become acquainted with a few more sisters."

Fujiwara Reiki, with a gentle and subtly aggrieved tone, her eyes appearing moist as if on the verge of melting someone's heart.

What

"Li Ji only feels wronged!"

Fujiwara Reiki tilted her head up, her eyes becoming even more teary as she looked at Jiang Chen. "Are you so eager for Li Ji to leave because you want to sleep with another woman?"

"..."

Jiang Chen nearly lost his composure.

Seriously.

Could she not pay attention to the atmosphere? Was it appropriate to utter such vulgar words in this serious moment?

"That’s it, isn’t it?"

Fujiwara Reiki fixed her gaze upon him, unblinking.

Jiang Chen was rendered speechless.

"Does Jiang Sang believe Li Ji has no reason to feel wronged?"

Jiang Chen found himself without words to retort.

People.

Indeed, one should not be entirely heartless.

The facts were the facts.

She had indeed gained a significant amount from him.

But after all, a genuine physical connection had existed between them, and quite frequently at that, with each encounter offering an experience beyond ordinary people's grasp.

A single night shared between lovers could foster hundreds of days of affection.

And she couldn't help but come to see you out of longing, yet here you are, eager to...

Consider how that might feel, at least.

"Li Ji understands that Jiang Sang cannot belong to Li Ji, but seeing it unfold right before Li Ji’s eyes makes it truly impossible for her to ignore."

"Jiang Sang, Li Ji is also a woman. Li Ji also feels... a heart-wrenching pain."

A piercing headache began to throb within Jiang Chen, his scalp tingling unpleasantly.

Some men might wish for women to discuss deeper emotions, while others would prefer they talk about practical matters.

"She and I are not involved in the way you imagine."

Jiang Chen reached for the drink he had just poured.

"You haven’t crossed the final line yet?"

The Unparalleled Demoness was truly just that, seeing through everything and cutting to the chase in a single sentence.

Jiang Chen remained silent.

"Are you planning to cross it tonight then?"

Was that truly how one posed a question like that? How were you supposed to answer it? How embarrassing.

Where was the usual sensibility and understanding?

Jiang Chen looked at her intently. "What is wrong with you?"

He had finally, with great insight, perceived the abnormality in her demeanor tonight.

Fujiwara Reiki let her eyelids fall, offering no further words.

"You should go back now."

Jiang Chen couldn't afford to dwell on this; after all, more pressing matters awaited his attention.

"Can Jiang Sang stay tonight for Li Ji?"

A soft voice inquired.

Jiang Chen's gaze sharpened, yet she continued to keep her head bowed, her expression obscured. All he could see was her fair, alluring chin and her enticing lips.

"All Li Ji needs is this single night. If Jiang Sang is unwilling afterward, Li Ji will absolutely cease troubling Jiang Sang again."

Jiang Chen sensed something was amiss, though he couldn't quite articulate what it was.

"Do you believe that under these circumstances, I can extricate myself?"

Speaking objectively.

Not feigning gravitas.

There was an aunt waiting for him.

"Even a temporary postponement would suffice."

Jiang Chen frowned, perplexed.

"Just an hour or two is needed."

Fujiwara Reiki slowly lifted her head.

As he gazed into her unfathomable, captivating eyes, Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned into silence.

An hour or two?

He nearly let out a curse.

Was she really treating this like booking a room for an illicit rendezvous?

"That’s utter nonsense."

Not wishing to waste any more time, Jiang Chen stood, intending to descend and handle the impending complications.

"Can Jiang Sang have one last drink with Li Ji before departing?"

Jiang Chen paused in his movement, eventually settling back down.

"Didn’t you say you weren’t drinking?"

"Li Ji cannot drink, which is precisely why I am requesting Jiang Sang’s assistance."

She reached out, picked up her own glass, and slowly offered it to him.

The liquid within the glass trembled faintly.

Jiang Chen, not entirely devoid of warmth, accepted the glass. He raised it and downed the contents in one gulp. Despite the trouble she had caused him tonight, his tone softened.

"Go back early."

He looked into her eyes, paused in quiet contemplation for a moment, and then rose again. Suddenly, however, the world began to spin violently, forcing him to clutch the table for support, yet the dizziness intensified.

"You..."

He fought to keep his eyes open, but the alluring, silent face rapidly blurred and faded from his vision.
