Although Lin Qingluo has made a fortune recently, he has many uses for his money. Buying this villa is a bit of a loss.

"Well...it's really not cheap."

Yukinoshita Harano held the villa key on her finger and turned it very easily. Her attitude towards seducing Lin Qingluo was very obvious.

"Qingluo-kun, owning a house in Tokyo is a dream for most people. You can get it at your fingertips now, aren't you tempted?"

“Be tempted before you take action.”

Of course Lin Qingluo wanted to buy it, but he had more important things to do and he couldn't let desire control him.

Since he didn't plan to buy it, Lin Qingluo simply stopped reading. He walked straight out of the villa and got into the car as if he was running away.

Yukinoshita Harano followed and sat in the back row. She looked at Lin Qingluo who was trying to endure it and was still teasing him.

"Oh~ don't be so anxious. If you miss this, you may regret it in the future."

"No, now that I have given up, I will never regret it."

Lin Qingluo gritted his teeth as he said this. Yukinoshita Yono looked at him with a flirtatious look on his face and reached out to poke Lin Qingluo's ribs.

"Qingluo Jun, since you are determined not to pay for it, let's make an exchange in other ways."

"exchange?"

Lin Qingluo instantly realized that Yukinoshita Harano had no intention of letting her pay for it from the very beginning. She needed her help for something.

——This favor is worth at least [-] million yen.

"First tell me what you want me to do, and I'll think about it."

"It's very simple. I'm going to Kyoto tomorrow to attend a banquet, and I want you to be my male companion."

What Yukinoshita Harano said was very simple. She didn't mention any of the inside information that would trigger the incident. She could only say that it was only in detail.

Looking at Yukinoshita Harano's expression, Lin Qingluo knew that she had no good intentions. Although this banquet was not the Hongmen Banquet, it was probably not much different.

"Don't give me riddles. Tell me clearly first. What exactly do you want me to do?"

"Oh, it's true. You just want to be my male companion and save me from some troubles."

Yukinoshita Harano made a wink expression, which seemed to be trying to be cute, but no matter how you looked at it, it made people feel that there was adultery in it.

If possible, Lin Qingluo also wanted to refuse seriously, but she gave too much.

"What kind of banquet is it? Who is attending?"

"Oh, don't worry, it's okay, it's just a birthday party for a friend of mine."

Yukinoshita Yangno knew that Lin Qingluo had already agreed in his heart, but he still had concerns and was unwilling to admit it so straightforwardly.

"It's just that maybe, maybe... someone wants to introduce me to someone."

"Does your Yukinoshita family still need a marriage alliance?"

Lin Qingluo knew the Yukinoshita family quite well. As the second daughter, Yukinoshita Yukino had no inheritance rights, so she might be pulled out for marriage.

But Yukinoshita Harano is different. She will be in charge of the Yukinoshita family in the future, and generally speaking, she should choose someone else to marry into her family.

After all, if Yukinoshita Harano finds a strong husband, it is very likely that the other party will erode the Yukinoshita family's property, losing the watermelon and picking up the sesame seeds.

"It's not a marriage. To put it bluntly, our family started out in real estate. After so many years of development, economic expansion is no longer the main goal."

"Understand that once you have the economy, you will seek political status."

"It's like this. Just like my father, after he got married, he started to pursue an official career with the support of his family. Naturally, my mother also wanted me to do the same, so she has been choosing."

"Oh~ I mean, I need to find someone from a political family, but not so strong."

"To put it bluntly, it's just to find a second son from a big family with suitable abilities, vision, and ambition. If you don't get the support of the original family, you can simply join Yukinoshita's family, and then rely on money to make it happen."

Yukinoshita Yono didn't shy away from this topic at all. It didn't matter what her mother thought. What mattered was what she did.

Since she talked about this matter with Lin Qingluo, it meant that she didn't mind letting him know about it, which in disguise showed that she would reject this condition.

"Think about it this way, are you considered a hot commodity in your circle?"

Lin Qingluo finally understood at this time that the Yukinoshita family had completely risen after so many years of development.

The second son of a family can not only win a beautiful woman, but also receive a large amount of campaign funds. As long as he has some ability, he will definitely take off directly.

"Sigh...it's just a lot of trouble."

Yukinoshita Yono pretended to be exhausted, trying to gain Lin Qingluo's sympathy, but Lin Qingluo did not waver and instead kept staring at her.

"So, I believe this reason, but it is definitely not the main reason. Why did you drag me to the banquet?"

"Ahem, cough, don't be so rational. It's rare that I have created such a good atmosphere."

Yukinoshita Harano knew that her little trick had been exposed, but she was not angry, but smiled very obscenely.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that our Yukinoshita family has entered the Kyoto real estate industry, and some people want us to pay some protection fees."

"Oh~ I understand."

Lin Qingluo had set up a connection before, giving the Shiina family and the Yukinoshita family a basis for cooperation. Now it seems that this cooperation is not smooth sailing.

In other words, the resources of the Shiina family cannot be used unlimitedly by the Yukinoshita family. The cake in Kyoto is so big, so sharing it among multiple people is not asking for trouble.

Look, isn't trouble coming?

"What did the Shiina family say?"

"What else can I say? They have already helped us and let us have a foothold in Kyoto, which is quite interesting."

When Yukinoshita Haruno mentioned this matter, she couldn't help but sneer on her face. The Shiina family's help was not free. The first cooperation between the two parties was quite pleasant, but it was not so good after that.

"The hearts of these big families are so dark. They deliberately let the Yukinoshita family enter Kyoto, and then took advantage of their home field advantage to try to cut us off."

“Isn’t it about the benefits but the costs you invest?”

After Lin Qingluo understood the reason for this matter, he began to think about how to express his attitude. He had benefited so much from the Yukinoshita family, so he had to get things done.

"Yangno, tell the truth, what exactly do you want me to do?"

"You don't have to do anything, just be arrogant enough."

"The idea of ​​a strong dragon overwhelming a local snake?"

"Yes, as long as you express your attitude, those people will naturally retreat."

"Is my face... so useful?"

Lin Qingluo didn't know his own weight very clearly. He just knew that with Nangong Nayue's support, he didn't have to be afraid when facing anyone.

However, Lin Qingluo always feels a little guilty when it comes to things like a fox pretending to be a tiger. How about he call Inaba Tsukiye and ask his friends to help out?

"That's enough. Qingluo-kun, you really underestimate yourself."

Yukinoshita Yangno felt deeply that he had given the villa to the right person. Lin Qingluo was good at everything, but he was a bit petty. Such a small benefit made him entangled.

"Nangong Nazuki is your backer, Inaba Tsukiye is your friend, the Yukinoshita family is your ally, and the Shiina family is also willing to invest in you. Coupled with your power, it is already a big mountain in itself."

"Okay, I understand. When should we set off?"

Lin Qingluo himself had no intention of rejecting Yukinoshita Harano's request for help. The reason why he asked so many questions was just to find out the situation. Now that the cause and effect was clear, he did not need to hesitate.

"Tomorrow morning, I will drive to pick you up then~"

Yukinoshita Yono shook the key in her hand and placed it in Lin Qingluo's hand. The meaning of the expression was already clear.

"This villa has been transferred to your name. If you feel the decoration style is not suitable, you can redo it before moving in."

"No need, I think it's fine~"

Lin Qingluo felt a little dizzy. He didn't work so hard for such a big house in his previous life. Now he didn't pay much attention to it, and someone just delivered it to him.

"This world is indeed unfair. The poor have no place to stand, and the weak have no way to redress their grievances. It is really too cruel."

"Yes, this country is changing so fast that one look may be the same today, but it will be completely different tomorrow."

Yukinoshita Yono is a person who goes with the flow. She will not try to change anything, but if Lin Qingluo wants to, she will stand by his side.

Chapter 252: Strength is the only guarantee

After knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Lin Qingluo agreed to Yukinoshita Harano's conditions without much hesitation.

No matter from any aspect, this was a sure-profit deal, but after Lin Qingluo returned home, when facing Mahiru Shiina, she didn't know what to say.

Mingming had said before that he would spend the summer vacation with them, but it was just a holiday and he had to take a car to Kyoto, which was really too much.

Shiina Mahiru knew that Lin Qingluo and Yukinoshita Harano met today, but Lin Qingluo did not explain the reason, and she was not in a hurry to urge them. She just talked about the company's progress during the meal.

"Today, the foreign aid that Yukinoshita Harano is looking for is here. He is a little boy in his early ten years, but he knows a lot and his opinions are very useful."

"Isayama Ran? Yukinoshita Yono said he can be trusted."

Lin Qingluo's mind was full of things about the villa, and he was even a little absent-minded when answering.Shiina Mahiru noticed something strange about him, but did not take the initiative to ask, just waiting for him to speak.

Lin Qingluo felt a little uneasy after eating this meal. After the meal, he looked at Shiina Mahiru busy and felt a little guilty.

But he could not break his promise to Yukinoshita Harano after all. After the girl came out of the shower, Lin Qingluo finally gathered up the courage to explain the matter clearly.

"Go to the banquet and be the best man..."

Although Shiina Mahiru is not very exposed to family affairs, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, which makes her understand the thoughts of everyone at this kind of banquet.

If Yukinoshita Harano needs help from Lin Qingluo, then the situation must be difficult to a certain extent, and it may even be more troublesome than she shows.

Strictly speaking, Shiina Mahiru didn't like Yukinoshita Harano, but because of Lin Qingluo's relationship, she naturally stood with her. Although there were conflicts, they could eventually unite.

——If she, Lin Qingluo, would probably agree to Yukinoshita Harano's conditions.

Mahiru Shiina was such a gentle person, she didn't even need Lin Qingluo to find a reason, she had already explained it to Lin Qingluo.

Although she was still very unhappy in her heart, she could only agree to such a thing that she had no choice but to do otherwise, otherwise it would be unreasonable.

"Isn't that villa beautiful?"

"Yeah, yeah! Very, very good!"

Lin Qingluo felt a little guilty when he said otherwise, but when he talked about the house he had just acquired, he immediately became energetic.

That house really suited his liking, not only because there were so many rooms and everyone could live together, but also because he had lived two lives and finally had his own house.

"When are you going to move there?"

"Wait until I come back from Kyoto."

"That's it... then we need to clean it up as soon as possible."

"This is the key to the villa. You can go and take a look first."

"Okay, if I have time tomorrow, I will take everyone there with me."

Mahiru Shiina was still soft-hearted after all. She knew that Lin Qingluo often didn’t know what to do when the girls gathered, so she took over the responsibility of explaining.

Obviously, after Sakurajima Mai was gone, Shiina Mahiru was no longer a dam. As long as Lin Qingluo pretended to be pitiful, she quickly and gently chose to forgive.

"By the way, Mahiru, I'm moving this time. The room is very rich, so you can just move here."

Lin Qingluo's thoughts and the male cat in heat on the roadside all understood that he had become accustomed to Mahiru Shiina's care and really couldn't live without him.

After moving, he and Mahiru Shiina lived separately. This was too cruel for the lovers in love, so Lin Qingluo wanted to persuade Mahiru Shiina.

"..."

There is a fundamental difference between going to someone else's house to spend the night and simply living together. Shiina Mahiru was a little hesitant in her heart, but at this time, Lin Qingluo looked at her pitifully and held her hand eagerly.

"Mahiru, how can I live without you? You don't want me to be miserable and hungry without food all day long."

"Ah... well."

Shiina Mahiru also felt that she agreed too quickly, but when faced with Lin Qingluo's request, it was always very difficult for her to refuse. She would always change her mind as soon as she made up her mind not to agree.

"Qingluo Jun, you must be very proud, I agreed easily."

"No, no, no! Absolutely not. I feel that I am loved. I am very touched."

Lin Qingluo also knew that he was confident because he was favored. For an outstanding girl like Mahiru Shiina, people who liked her would stay away from her.

However, because she liked him, she indulged him and let him have no worries.

"Mahiru, thank you very much. I like you."

Lin Qingluo opened his arms and hugged the girl in front of him. Although Shiina Mahiru was unhappy, she did not push him away, but put her cheek on his shoulder.
