Chapter 402 Yuki, leaving?

Tuk Tuk.

Knock twice.

Following a steady and forceful "Come in" from the study, Sakakihara Raku pushed the door open.

The old man's study room is not the layout in which Sakakibara imagined that the bookshelves filled the whole room, but a very spacious and bright space.

A large area of ​​afternoon sunlight shines through the large area of ​​floor-to-ceiling windows.The light swayed by the leaf shadows is sprinkled on the beech wood table directly in front of it, which is extraordinarily fresh and bright.

Bookshelves and books are placed on both sides.

The bookshelves are very simple and are basically only used to display books.

Rakuta Sakakibara took a closer look and found that in addition to works on business, economics, and management, these books also included classic works in various fields such as literature, history, and philosophy.

There are also many related works on philosophy and spiritual growth
Amami Soichiro, with slightly gray temples, was sitting on that spacious desk. He was wearing a home-style simple kimono, and his back was facing the large floor-to-ceiling windows.

The whole person looks serious and formal.

Amami Soichiro seemed to be writing some letter, the strokes of the pen in his hand were quite smooth and even.

Sensing Sakakibara pushing the door to enter, he didn't look up, but motioned Sakakibara to sit down on the chair in front of him, his voice was low and sonorous, full of the precipitation of years.

"sit down."

Facing the head of the entire Tianhai family, Sakakibara sat down in the seat directly in front of him.

The atmosphere was so quiet that Sakakibara could hear the caress of the old man's pen sliding the letter paper.

"Know what I'm writing about?"

Hearing the sound, Sakakibara took a sneak peek at what the old man had written, and tentatively said, "A letter?"

"Yes, the letter." Amami Zongichiro did not look up, but put down the pen, picked up the letter just written, folded the letter paper, and put the letter paper in the envelope, "Xiao Le thinks that in this era, I will still Write a letter to? Why write a letter?"

Who to write to?

And why are you writing?
The question the old man asked was really weird.
So, why in today's information age, use the extremely inefficient method of pen and ink and envelopes to convey information?
Sakakihara thought carefully.

First of all, the person who can make the old man write the letter must have a certain relationship with the old man.

That is to say, apart from friends, it can only be a relationship maintained by other things.

Second, in this day and age, social media can replace letters to convey messages.

The old man is not the kind of person who stands still.
Therefore, the letter has a special meaning to the old man.

Sakakibara thought for a long time, then looked up at the serious face of the old man, and said:

"This is just a small guess I can see from the seriousness of my grandfather writing the letter just now. The recipient of the letter is a certain aunt."

Amami Soichiro was not surprised, but said flatly:

"I'm pretty good at observing. So, how do you answer the next question?"

About "why write a letter"?

Sakakibara thought hard, recalling the scene of talking with the old man in the past.

But no matter how you think about it, how you remember it.

Sakakihara Raku couldn't catch that chance out of thin air.

Until he looked up and saw the appearance of his grandfather, and saw a bit of his uncle's shadow.

So he answered earnestly:

"Just writing a letter still has its special meaning and value to grandpa. Although electronic communication is convenient and fast, writing a letter can convey a deeper level of emotion and care."

Amami Soichiro's expression remained unchanged.

Sakakihara was taken aback, "Did I guess wrong?"

"No."

Amami Zongichiro denied his statement, and took the green tea brought by Uncle Ying who had just opened the door.

Amami Soichiro lifted the lid of the teacup, and the heat rose upwards, and he took a sip slowly.

"What you said is very close to my idea. For me, writing a letter does have its own meaning-a letter written by hand is always more emotional than the words composed of pixels on the screen.

"There are also examples to prove this statement-two pen pals exchange letters all the year round, and the two appeal to each other's thoughts, feelings, and life in the letters. The ideas of each other are conveyed and communicated through letters. In the eyes of A pen pal, B pen pal The quality of the letters and fonts sent by him are getting better and better. Pen pal A feels the hidden feelings of pen pal B in his heart, that is, he respects himself very much, not only changing the material of the envelope to better, but also tempering his own Calligraphy, A pen pal saw these and was very moved."

Amami Soichiro took a sip of hot tea, raised his eyes, and looked at Sakakihara:

"Do you know why I'm telling you this?"

"I don't know."

"Why don't you know?"

"If you don't know, you don't know. It's as simple as that. Grandpa didn't give me too many hints. If I force an answer, it's just a guess based on my own thoughts. And this guess is nothing compared to the guess just now." The foundation is even more meaningless."

Amami Soichiro smiled slightly because of his very interesting answer.

Too much flattery by some rotten stubborn guys over the years.

Answering like this made him feel like a young man.

But Mao Dian is right in one thing, this is a "stinky boy", even if he has outstanding abilities, once you look at him from the perspective of your family, you can't always like him.

That brat Maodian is much more pleasing to the eye than the brat in front of him.

Amami Soichiro thought so, he didn't speak any more, but sipped the tea leisurely.

The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

If the superior does not speak, it will always bring an inexplicable pressure.

That's how the old man is.

Sakakihara wondered if the old man was using this to consider his own character. Maybe, maybe not
However, Sakakihara is also guessing at Grandpa's thoughts.

He felt that the old man had absolutely no good intentions in asking him to come to the study to talk alone.

Grandpa definitely knew about the simultaneous dating between Liuli and Qiyue at the previous school.

The old man suddenly called himself over.

Just now I told some specious stories. The most likely reason is to put pressure on myself, and then force myself to submit to Zhixue.

Now it's been silent for a long time.

The invisible pressure made Sakaki Hara ready to meet the next question from the old man.

"Xiao Le." Amami Soichiro stroked the rim of the teacup with the teacup lid.

"."

"How are you getting along with Zhixue recently?"

".good."

"Well, that's good," Soichiro Amami put down the tea in his hand, "I also noticed the change in Yuzhixue when I was having lunch at noon today. In the past, she always finished eating and said, 'I'm full ’, she will go back to her own room. And now, she will take the initiative to talk to Ling. From the perspective of fatherhood, I want to say thank you to you.”

After finishing speaking, Soichiro Amami bowed his head to Sakakihara Raku.

"."

The old man's sudden thanks shocked Sakakihara Raku.

Want to know who the old man is?The head of the Tianhai family!

Needless to say what kind of person he is usually, even in my impression, the old man is the extremely arrogant and complacent boss of Tianhai Group.

And now... the old man actually lowered his head, expressing his gratitude to his junior? !
Sakakihara sensed the absurdity.

Incomparably ridiculous.

Originally thought that the old man was going to put pressure on himself again, but he didn't expect it to be a thank you.
This made Sakakibara panic.

For a moment, he didn't know how to answer, how to accept this "thank you" from his grandfather.

Sakakibara opened his mouth, still not knowing what to say, and closed it decisively.

The air just froze again.

"Think it's too weird for me to bow my head to the younger generation?"

".Yes, it is."

"There's nothing wrong with it, because I didn't like it in the first place." Soichiro Amami once again returned to that serious and old-fashioned look.

Sakakihara Raku: "."

"But everything has a reason. I remember I told you before that I did the same thing as Mao Dian. In fact, compared to me, my father, that is, Mao Dian's grandfather, is the kind of old-fashioned and pedantic. What I am most dissatisfied with about the old man who rescued the medicine is his failure to be responsible for his family, and he always puts on his father's airs, but he can't let go of his figure to his family. Wrong is wrong, right is wrong, just because he is Patriarch, he is the person with the most say in the entire Tianhai family.

"If there is anything I can hold on to as an old man who is about to die, it is to be grateful for the things that are difficult for me to do and benefit myself."

Sakakihara didn't answer. He just thought that what the old man said was difficult for him to do was to take care of Yuki
The old man said these words to himself.

It made him even feel that the old man is not like the old man at the moment, but like a father.

The feeling when getting along with uncle is very similar.

"Zhixue was born with a disability due to premature birth. Her disability comes not only from herself, but also from her acquired experience. For a long time after Zhixue was born, I haven't seen her once. It's not so much that I hate her , It’s better to say that I resent her existence, and the mistakes I made in order to escape. As a result, ten children lost their mothers.”

"." Sakakibara heard her grandfather bring up the past, so she resolutely chose not to speak, and listened patiently.

"When she was still alive, this family still had some sense of home. But after Zhixue was born, this family became colder and colder without her mother. In addition, not long ago, because of disagreements with my ideas, Maodian chose Parted ways with Tianhai's family, went to England alone, and got married. Some series of changes caused the family's dinners to gradually decrease, and the daughters began to choose to move out one after another in order to avoid Zhixue."

Sakakihara knew this.

Because Zhixue's mother was born Zhixue in spite of everyone's opposition.

Not only was Yuki who was born prematurely disabled, but she also killed the mother who maintained the entire family.
This made her look "ominous" in the eyes of her sisters.

This is not someone's superstition, but a disgust derived from the bottom of my heart.

Even if they are aware that they are her sisters, they will subconsciously avoid this relationship.

Even the old man thought so at the beginning. After Zhixue was born, he never went to see Zhixue. She was brought up by rotating nanny.
snow experience.
Sakakihara has learned about it indirectly many times.

Every time I think about this, Sakakihara will think of Yuki who always likes to stand under the advertisement and stare blankly at the "family" photographed above when she eats McDonald's.

She has never felt love.

Deep down in her heart, she longs for someone to hold her hand, right?

This made Sakakihara feel a little unbearable.

She always likes to get into her own bed, but she is actually seeking love from herself that she never had.

Because of my help and care for her, she got something she never had.
“Thank you for the gift from Le”

Inexplicably recalling the words that Amami Zhixue hugged the white cat doll on the hospital bed and stared blankly at what it said, Sakakibara felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

"The first ten years of that child's life, Zhixue, has been alone enduring the resentment from her own misfortune and family, and spent the whole childhood. This made her subconsciously close herself and choose to forget most things to escape her. the situation faced."

"Then grandpa, grandpa, your change of attitude towards Zhixue also has an opportunity, right?"

"Opportunity, this thing is more like the guilt I felt when I suddenly realized that I still have a daughter who is as old as my granddaughter."

Amami Soichiro had a calm expression, "Do you know why my attitude towards Zhixue suddenly changed a few years ago?"

"."

"Just because Zhixue presented flowers to her mother during the grave sweeping, I asked Guizhong a simple question, 'Who is she?' in front of her mother's tombstone."

who is she.?

No wonder, no wonder the old man's attitude has changed.

Sakakihara could even think of Sakura's shocked expression at that time.

As a father, a father in modern society forgets the existence of his daughter in front of her mother's grave.

"The first time I heard her call me father was five years ago when she was 11 years old... Isn't it ridiculous? It is because of this ridiculousness that I choose to respond to Zhixue's demands and requests in the future. I I hope that my belated response will make her feel a little bit of my existence. Although she has almost no desires other than to eat."

"." Sakakihara didn't know how to respond to the old man's words.

He was communicating with himself as his father, telling him about his relationship with Zhixue.

The old man's attitude towards Zhixue.

It's more like a sudden awakening due to an opportunity.
This emotion is full of guilt and the idea of ​​wanting to make up for her. That's why the old man is standing on Zhixue's side now. He wants to obey Zhixue's wish and let him marry her or something
"My age is also increasing year by year. I am already the age of Zhixue's grandfather. Regarding Zhixue, I believe you have learned enough about her recently. Her own wishes and actions are quite simple and pure. As long as you treat her well One point, and she'll get back to you wholeheartedly.

"The previous question about the letter is actually to tell you that the maintenance of the 'family' depends on feelings. If there is no emotion, then this 'family' will exist in name only. This is why I am still writing letters to my daughters.

"I know Xiaole, you are facing difficult emotional choices, so I don't intend to make it difficult for you anymore. If you don't want to go with Zhixue, I will take her back to Tianhai's house in the near future. You are still engaged to Qi Mingyue , Inheriting the Tianhai family business in the future, there is no doubt about it. This is also what your stepfather meant."

After Amami Soichiro finished speaking, he didn't wait for Sakakihara Raku's answer.

Instead, he got up silently and left the study voluntarily.

Only Sakakihara Raku was still sitting on the chair in a daze, feeling at a loss because of what the old man said just now.
Grandpa is saying that Zhixue is going back to Tianhai's house?
*
On the other side, Amami Soichiro walked out of the Amami family's mansion, and a black car was parked in front of the steps of the gate.

"Master just came home, is he leaving now?"

"Ah, a group of trash has always enjoyed too much blessing."

"You haven't said a few more words to Miss Zhixue yet!"

"Let's talk about it next time. I will take time to see her after a while."

"master"

Before the master left, Ying Guizhong still couldn't help asking Amami Soichiro who was about to get in the car.

"Is it really good for the master to say those words to the young master just now?"

Amami Soichiro changed the image of his kind and gentle father just now, with a straight face, he turned his head and said, "Don't talk about that, do you think that kid will submit obediently? Let him harden up but he has the choice to resist me. Maodian was given such a handle before. , so that he has an infinite spirit of resistance."

"." Ying Guizhong was speechless, the master gained experience from fighting the young master, and used it on the young master.

Amami Soichiro put his hands in the long sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and said coldly:
"Human emotion is the support of human existence in this world. If we want to promote the development of emotion, we must let the emotion itself have some scruples and make it contradictory. Various emotions will be produced in the contradiction. These emotions The accumulation is proof that can no longer be divided."

"master"

Amami Soichiro sat in the back seat of the car and waved his hand to Sakura Guizhong outside the window, "There is no need to feel sad for that brat, and what I told him was not a lie. It's just that these truths have a purpose from the very beginning. It's just sex."

Uncle Ying looked at the master in the car window, "Oh master, it is precisely because it is the truth that I feel embarrassed for the young master."

Amami Soichiro closed his eyes: "His embarrassment? There are many more embarrassing things in this life. How can I make Zhixue's wish come true if I am not embarrassing? As a father, I can give her the best thing in this life, the most compensation , and only this."

After all, Soichiro Amami waved his hand again, signaling the driver to close the window.

Ying Guizhong got up from the bent over state, stood in front of the mansion, and watched the master's car leave the Tianhai family's manor again.
