Should I call now? My father might not have had dinner yet at this time. Maybe it would be better to call later.

But my father might have to go out for social events later...

No, let's fight now...

His fingertips slid back and forth across the phone screen, hesitant.

If you stick your head out, you will be hit by a knife. If you hide your head, you will also be hit by a knife. There is no way to avoid it.

If all else fails, use Plan B and say that you fell in love with Takemiya at first sight and hope to help her realize her dream.

Although this reason sounds very flattering, it actually makes sense considering his age.

It's a pity that his fame was ruined...

Mitsui Tsubasa dialed the number, pursed his lips repeatedly, and asked tentatively: "Dad, it's me. Are you available to talk now?"

My father's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Oh, Xiaoyi, it's really rare. I thought you couldn't wait to contact me yesterday."

Hearing this, Mitsui Tsubasa's face turned dark.

"What kind of image do I have in my father's mind..."

He took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then said dryly: "Father, I'm calling you to ask you for a favor..."

He paused and squeezed his wrist, trying to ease his nervousness. "I recently met a brilliant doctor who is developing a new drug and is about to make a breakthrough."

"This reminds me that I will also start learning about business management in the near future. If I can cooperate with her and co-found a medical research institute, I believe we can achieve great success!"

After he finished speaking, Mitsui Tsubasa held his breath, anxiously waiting for his father's response.

"I've read her information, she's indeed quite talented..." my father drawled out his words.

Mitsui Tsubasa was immediately delighted. His father's intelligence network was indeed powerful. He had even thoroughly investigated Takemiya's talents in the medical field.

It’s stable now!

"…my poor son is completely bewitched!"

"Ah?" Mitsui Tsubasa couldn't help but exclaim. This was different from what he expected.

"Father, that's not true! Wu Jianmiao is really talented, she..."

"Alright, alright, stop talking." His father interrupted him, but he didn't sound angry. "A young doctor who just graduated from college was ostracized by his mentor and was involved in a drug dispute. What kind of talent do you mean?"

"But..." The father changed the subject, his voice a little strange, "She is indeed a great beauty, no wonder you are attracted to her. You have a good eye, you are worthy of being my son! Haha!"

"..."

Mitsui Tsubasa was speechless.

Is this really a compliment?

The opponent uses Plan B, so I have no cards left...

Mitsui Tsubasa was silent for a moment, while his father smiled and comforted him on the other end of the phone: "It's nothing, you are also at the age of a young man, it is normal to be a little impulsive. When your mother insisted on not letting you receive those aristocratic education, I didn't quite agree... Oh, forget it, let's not talk about this."

"I have no objection to your pursuit of her. You need some funds to start your own business, and I can support you. But, Xiaoyi, I must remind you of one thing."

My father's voice suddenly became serious.

"Don't make unrealistic promises to her. You are my only son. Your future spouse can only be a daughter from one of the six major families. You must understand this."

Mitsui Tsubasa's heart trembled, and he immediately understood a lot.

The six major conglomerates ensure that their power and resources are passed down only within their bloodline through intermarriages from generation to generation.

As a member of the family, this kind of thing is really difficult to evaluate.

However, this might be a good opportunity to clear up years of doubts.

He took a deep breath and asked, "But, father, didn't you and mother also get married through free love? Do you regret it now?"

"..."

There was a sudden long silence on the other end of the phone.

Mitsui Tsubasa was shocked and vaguely felt that he had said something wrong.

He shouldn't have touched his father's pain...

"Yes, I regret it." My father's voice was unusually calm, but it seemed to hide endless emotional ripples.

"If I had obeyed the will of the family, I might be the leader of the [right] branch now. I should be sitting in the Mitsui Building in Tokyo, enjoying the flattery of political and business celebrities. Instead of being an idle president in Kanagawa, with an unknown honorary president giving me orders!"

My father's voice began to gradually rise, and his suppressed emotions turned into fierce words, and finally broke out into a dull growl.

Mitsui Tsubasa was silent.

This was probably the deep-seated conflict between the parents, and the reason why they eventually went their separate ways.

At this stage of the conversation, the negotiations are probably a failure.

He hesitated, not knowing what to do.

"But...if I could turn back time, my choice would not change." My father's voice suddenly broke the silence.

Mitsui Tsubasa's eyes widened instantly, and he was about to speak: "Father..."

"Listen to me first, Xiaoyi. It took me almost forty years to understand this truth." His father interrupted him again, and after a moment of silence, he continued, "Love is something that cannot be controlled by reason, nor can it be weighed by interests. It is an impulsive instinct that is unrestrained - it is like a riot!"

Riot... Mitsui Tsubasa pondered over this word for a long time and gained a deeper understanding of the emotional entanglement between his parents.

He had witnessed endless quarrels, and thought they were just conflicts of ideas, but he never imagined that there was also the intervention of family will.

"As a father, I should support my son in his pursuit of love. The funds have been transferred to your personal account. You can discuss the follow-up plans with Jingliu. She has the talents you need."

My father said these words in a nonchalant tone, and his voice returned to its usual calmness.

"I'm a little tired. Is there anything else you want to talk about?"

Unexpected turn, unexpected success, Mitsui Tsubasa sighed secretly in his heart, but he felt that he should still say something to comfort his father.

"Father, I am serious about the drug research institute I mentioned earlier. I will give you a clear explanation in about a month. This is my promise to you."

"Promise...hahaha." The father's voice seemed to be very relieved. "You have really changed a lot since you went to Tokyo. The little boy who always hid behind Jingliu has now grown up! Very good, very good, this is the first time you made a promise to me, so I will look forward to it!"

"I will try my best, father, and I won't bother you anymore."

"Dudu."

After hanging up the phone, Mitsui Tsubasa took a few deep breaths and finally regained his calm.

Damn... Once again, an urgent promise was made.

Miaomiao, I think I have to inconvenience you. Those who are capable should do more work. You may have to work overtime...

But I did grow.

Mitsui Tsubasa stared at his clenched fists.

I can't let my father down.

Thinking of this, that familiar wonderful feeling came to my heart again.

The numbers on the phone screen suddenly stopped ticking.

【I am you...you are me...】

【Here, you gain a brand new bond. 】

Chapter 28 [Storm] is coming

Mitsui Tsubasa was very happy to start a new community.

Although the specific role of COOP is still unclear, it at least shows that the relationship between the two parties has deepened.

Unfortunately, his original perfect image could not be preserved, and he ended up with the impression of being a sex-obsessed person.

But at least the funding issue has been resolved...

He unlocked his phone, opened his banking app, and checked his account balance.

Instant deposit: +2,000,000,000 yen.

Nine zeros, 20 billion! ?

Mitsui Tsubasa was stunned. This was really unexpected. He had initially estimated that he would be satisfied with 40 to 50 million. After all, this was his first attempt at starting a business, and the risk of losing money was too great.

I didn’t expect my father to be so generous… No wonder my mother always criticized him for his extravagance…

My father is reliable. He not only provided funds but also started COOP.

In comparison, Iwai Munehisa seems a bit ungrateful. He spent a large sum of money in his store, but why didn't he open a social media account after the transaction was successful...

He couldn't possibly go and "work" for Iwai like Amamiya Ren did and develop a relationship with her.

He doesn't have that much time to waste.

When the security company is established, if there is no firearm modification expert who can replace Iwai Munehisa, then just kidnap him. Anyway, his "weakness" is that he runs outside every day, and he will always reach an agreement with coercion and inducement.

Let’s give priority to the Drug Research Institute’s affairs now.

Mitsui Tsubasa opened the family APP, found Jiang Shangjingliu, and hesitated for a moment.

He originally thought that the "big sister" was just an ordinary secretary, but he didn't expect that she was actually a manager with many subordinates.

What on earth has she been doing all these years?

Mitsui Tsubasa: "Jingliu, I have found a partner to start a pharmaceutical research institute together. Please send a subordinate who understands business to help us draft a contract."

Jiang Shangjingliu: "Drug Research Institute? Your partner is the female doctor we investigated last time?"

Mitsui Tsubasa: "Yes, that's her. Please help me draw up a contract with generous terms. She is very talented, don't scare her away. The money is in my personal account, you can transfer it too, right?"

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "Wait a minute... I see, how much do you plan to invest?"

Mitsui Tsubasa: "I don't know much about the pharmaceutical industry, but a research institute sounds very expensive. Let's invest 20 billion. I hope to see results as soon as possible."

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "..."

The silence lasted for a moment, and Mitsui Tsubasa thought that Jiang Shangjingliu was arranging tasks.

However, after waiting for a long time, he still didn't receive a reply. He began to look a little impatient and changed his sitting position: "Why is it not done yet? Is there any problem?"

Finally, Jiang Shang Jingliu responded.

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "Aren't you afraid of losing everything if you invest all your money? The pharmaceutical industry is very complicated, and that female doctor doesn't have any work experience."

Mitsui Tsubasa frowned, the expected difficulties appeared: "Just do as I say, I have confidence in my judgment, we will succeed."

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "..."

There was another silence, but this time the chat box showed 'the other party is typing', as if something was making her hesitant.

Five minutes passed and Mitsui Tsubasa could hardly sit still. He felt that Jiang Shangjingliu was struggling as if he was writing a paper.

Mitsui Tsubasa: "What are you busy with?"

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "Nothing, I was just thinking... you're really good at picking up girls!"

Mitsui Yi's fingers trembled: "I'm not! I didn't! Why do you and father think that way?"

Jiang Shang Jingliu: "I admit that she is very beautiful, but Yi, you know, the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie!"

Mitsui Tsubasa couldn't hold it anymore. Everyone was looking at me like that. What kind of person have I become?!

He was so angry that his hands were shaking as he typed: "I'm too lazy to explain to you. Anyway, this is a formal business cooperation. Go and prepare the contract. This is an order!"

Jiang Shangjingliu: "The contract will be prepared, but I still want to remind you - don't be impulsive! I will apply for the graduation assessment now, and I will go to Tokyo to find you in three months at most. Wait for me, don't be impulsive! Impulsiveness is the devil!!"

"Ah!!!" Mitsui Tsubasa couldn't help but want to scream. This feeling of being misunderstood was too maddening.

But, forget it. In a month they will know how wrong they were, and he will have to rebuild his glorious image himself!

Mitsui Tsubasa: "Ask your subordinates to bring the contract and wait for me in front of the clinic this Sunday morning. That's it, OVER."
