Chapter 1993: On Ex-girlfriends (3)
“I, Fujiwara, will not accept myself as a sacrifice for my own interests.”
His cold voice was filled with determination.
“Instead of wasting your time here, why don’t you go back and think about how to become the ruler of the Inoue family. If you want to get rid of the shackles of fate, you must first dare to change it. I know that you might not necessarily like being sacrificed like a commodity.”
Fujiwara’s words were like cold needles piercing into Riko Inoue’s ears—
She heard every word he said clearly and felt pain in her ears.
However, there was no denying that what he said made sense.
“What about you, Fujiwara-kun? Can you guarantee that you’re indifferent right now? I’ve heard about what happened between you and Dongfang Liuyun, but the two of you have already separated. She has become Qi Lei’s woman, and you… you won’t have another chance with her. In the end, you still didn’t get anything.”
When she said this, Fujiwara’s cold face instantly froze!
It seemed like that was really the case. Even if he no longer had to worry about him having to bear the pressure from his family, he still lost Dongfang Liuyun.
If this was really the case, then that is all to him too.
Apart from her, would he be able to accept other women in his heart?
He knew the answer in his heart.
“If you insist, I have nothing to say.”
After that, Fujiwara coldly said this, then lowered his head and quietly had his breakfast.
Riko Inoue also silently looked at him for a long time, but she did not say anything else.
After breakfast, Riko Inoue went back to her room. He heard that she was going to call her mother back home, so Fujiwara went back to his study.
“Master, Dongfang Rou’er is outside. She said she has something to ask you.”
Fujiwara had just made a cup of tea and sat down when Matsuda suddenly came to report.
Dongfang Rou’er?
Fujiwara narrowed his black eyes and thought for a moment before Dongfang Rou’er’s face appeared in his mind. A trace of disgust appeared in his eyes for no reason. He did not forget what had happened in the bar.
“What did she come here for?”
Fujiwara’s voice was extremely cold. Even Matsuda could feel a slight chill in his heart.
“I don’t know. I wanted to send her away, but she insisted on meeting you. She even said that she had something important to tell you. It’s about Miss Dongfang Liuyun.”
Matsuda hesitated for a moment before replying.
Liuyun?
Fujiwara quickly recalled what had happened at De Bao House!
It took him almost all his strength to suppress the urge to visit her. He could only get information about her from Lan Xiu!
“Let her in.”
A moment later, Fujiwara said this indifferently.
“Alright!”
Matsuda let out a sigh of relief and then left.
Right now, other than the matter regarding Dongfang Liuyun, nothing else could pique Fujiwara’s interest. Looking at his Master like this, Matsuda felt his heart ache.
…
When Dongfang Rou’er was brought in by Matsuda, her entire body was trembling. The weather outside was a little cold in the early morning, and she was not wearing a coat. She was only wearing a pure white formal dress.
“Miss Dongfang, this way please. Wait a moment, our Master will be down soon.”
Matsuda politely invited Dongfang Rou’er to the sofa in the living room and sat down. He poured her a cup of hot water and brought it over. Dongfang Rou’er also received it and warmed her slightly frozen hands.
“Thank you.”
Not long after she finished speaking, she heard the sound of steady footsteps coming from upstairs. Dongfang Rou’er hurriedly raised her gaze and looked in the direction of the sound—
She saw Fujiwara slowly walking down the stairs.
“Mr. Fujiwara!”
Dongfang Rou’er quickly stood up. She could not hide the emotions in her beautiful eyes.
“What are you doing here?”
Fujiwara sat down on the sofa. He was so cold that he did not even want to look at her.
Seeing Fujiwara’s reaction, Dongfang Rou’er’s expression darkened again.
“I happened to be in the vicinity on business, so I took this opportunity to take a look. I hope Mr. Fujiwara doesn’t mind. My wedding with Jin Sheng is in a few days. Will Mr. Fujiwara attend?”
When Dongfang Rou’er said this, her throat was filled with bitterness, and her heart was filled with waves of pain.
She wanted to see him, desperately wanted to see him. She was clearly so unwilling, and she did not want to marry Jin Sheng. She had been struggling in pain these past few days. As the wedding date approached, she began to reject this marriage that was about to begin. However, since she rejected this marriage, she began to think about Fujiwara.
Who knew that she had been silently loving Fujiwara all these years?
She thought that she could hide this love in the bottom of her heart and never let anyone discover it. However, she could no longer hide it now that it had come to this. She could not even lie to herself!
This was probably how it was at this point. She could not get it even if she wanted it. No matter how much she loved him, she could not force Fujiwara to like her!
“I don’t think we’re that close yet,” Fujiwara responded coldly.
“However, since you’ve already spoken, I should prepare a gift for the Dongfang family. After all, the Dongfang family sent me an invitation card.”
“For Mr. Fujiwara to be able to come… that would be the most precious gift to me!”
Dongfang Rou’er said with a smile. Looking at that smile, there was a faint desolate feeling.
Fujiwara’s expression did not change. Instead, he looked at Dongfang Rou’er coldly and did not say anything. However, his intentions were obvious, he was waiting for her to explain to him about Dongfang Liuyun’s matters.
Dongfang Rou’er could naturally feel it.
“Fourth Sister, she… she and brother-in-law will be attending too.”
Dongfang Rou’er could not endure his cold and threatening gaze. She took a deep breath before saying this.
“Mr. Fujiwara, I know that you and Fourth Sister have too many unforgettable pasts, but…”
“Matsuda, send the guest out!”
Before Dongfang Rou’er could finish speaking, Fujiwara had already stood up and walked upstairs with a cold expression.
“Mr. Fujiwara, Listen to me. I really want to talk to you about Fourth Sister, Mr. Fujiwara!”
Dongfang Rou’er stood up in panic and shouted.
Seeing that Fujiwara had no reaction, she felt a wave of bitterness in her heart. She could not care less and cried out, “In your eyes, is there no one else besides Dongfang Liuyun?!”
The more Fujiwara treated her with indifference and disdain, the more unbearable the pain in Dongfang Rou’er’s heart became, and the more she hated Dongfang Liuyun.
“You’ve crossed the line, Dongfang Rou’er. I warned you the last time.”
As soon as Dongfang Rou’er finished speaking, Fujiwara turned around with a cold expression and stared at her indifferently.
His cold voice made Dongfang Rou’er’s entire body tremble. However, it was not as unbearable as the pain in her heart.
