The Elegant Life of the Maodao Family

The ancient craftsman of this work is such a skilled person.

"Well, since Mr. Koizumi guarantees it, President Winter Solstice will be very happy, because after all, this is by no means a cheap investment."

He said he envisioned the work as the subject of a small private gallery located in the lobby of the head office building.

"Please let an official appraiser look at it again, because this is just a layman's opinion."

Koizumi, who looked at his watch while talking, was stunned for a moment.An hour had passed since he entered this room, and he suddenly became worried about Mao Dao.

After telling Mikimoto that he had to go back to the hall, he seemed to notice that it was getting late, so he hurriedly stood up, wrapped the vase back to its original shape, and walked to the corridor.

"I'm sorry to take up so much of your time. You didn't enjoy the rare dance at all, did you?"

"Where, I was just accompanying Mr. Maodao, I don't need to enjoy the atmosphere of the dance. It's just that this is the first time I've been away from Mr. Maodao for so long..."

No matter what Koizumi could not erase the ominous premonition, he raised his face heavily as soon as he entered the elevator.Even if the capricious Mao Dao couldn't wait and went back alone, it wouldn't be surprising. Mao Dao was a person who was unexpectedly able to display that casual personality as if nothing had happened. Of course, he did so without any malice.However, it's good if it's this level, but it's bad if it secretly annoys him.Because Maojima would adopt a childish and awkward way, if he didn't go back to his house, but just ran out into the street, Koizumi would be in a very difficult situation.What's more, tonight he still has the irritability of arguing with his lover, no matter what happens, he is not surprised.

After returning to the hall, the number of guests had decreased by about half, and the people who were still in the venue also exuded an atmosphere that they were about to leave.It is past ten o'clock.The dance that started at seven o'clock will also come to an end.

Koizumi's ominous premonition seemed to be correct, even if he carefully walked around the entire venue, he did not see the figure of Maojima.Dong Zhishi was talking enthusiastically with a member of parliament among the guests.There seemed to be no figure of Kajuko in the arena.It was a coincidence that I didn’t know when she came here. As the grandmother’s cousin of the Maodao family, the old lady Shanzhe, Koizumi was not good at dealing with this shrill and hard-to-serve woman, and he couldn’t help but resent his timing. .

"Oh, I said you."

Mrs. Yamato stopped Koizumi with a haughty attitude.

"Hey, tonight, Mr. Chengren is also attending with mere secretary. How does that person think of me? How many times do I have to tell him before he understands?"

Koizumi smiled without saying a word.If you answer casually, one sentence will attract ten responses.

"But forget it, the atmosphere is good tonight."

Mrs. Yamato's wrinkled face burst into a smile.After the age of 80, no matter how much painstaking care one spends on maintenance, it still seems that wrinkles cannot be hidden.Especially the arms and fingers are irresistible to the ravages of time.

"The lady from Mr. Dongzhi's family is very close to Mr. Chengren. Mr. Chengren rarely danced two songs in a row, so he must like each other very much. Although Miss Kashouko seems to be one year older in age, but that person It's almost time to seriously find a wife."

Koizumi also echoed cautiously: "Yes."

When she saw the right moment and asked her if she knew where the Maodao family was now, Mrs. Shantian turned her head and replied, "Oh?"

"So it looks like I didn't see him after the dance."

Then the old woman uttered vulgar words that disappointed Koizumi the most.

"Could it be that he booked a room at a hotel? Don't look at Mr. Chengren, he is also a man, and this may be a good thing."

Koizumi really wanted to respond in shock: "How is that possible!" Regarding Mao Dao's character, he was at least much clearer than the other party, and it was impossible for Mao Dao to do such a frivolous thing.

After making up a random reason to escape Mrs. Shantian, this time I can finally stop Dongzhi.

Dongzhi answered Koizumi's question bluntly.

"Well, he was taken into the room suddenly not long ago. He seems a little uncomfortable, hey, but there's no need to worry."

"What room number is it?"

Hearing the question that Koizumi would naturally ask, Dong Zhi shook his head hastily for some reason.

"Because Kajuko said he fell asleep just now, so I thought it would be better to spend the night in the hotel like this. After the doctor at the hotel made a diagnosis, it seemed that he just accumulated too much fatigue."

"I fell asleep..."

Although Koizumi was a little skeptical, he had to believe what Dong Zhi said, and it felt strange to visit the room knowing that he was asleep.

"There's really no need to worry!"

Dong Zhishi chattered repeatedly.

"We are also scheduled to stay in this hotel tonight. When he wakes up tomorrow morning, we will be in charge of notifying Maodao Mansion. Even if we go to his room now, I think he is probably still asleep, so it is useless to go. Let's go for a run."

"I see."

Finally Koizumi decided to give up.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Mr. Maodao, please take care of him. It doesn't matter even if it's late at night tonight, I will come to pick him up as soon as I get the notification."

"It's okay, Mr. Koizumi."

Dong Zhishi patted his chest with his fat hands as if to say, "Put it on me!"

Although he somehow felt something was wrong, but in terms of his identity, Koizumi couldn't investigate further.We fully grasp the identity and status of the other party. Besides, if you are a person who has a certain understanding of the upper class, you should know how special Mao Dao Chengren is. If you are not at ease, you can also notify the police to invite them Send special agents over, but Koizumi decided that there is no need to be nervous to that extent.He didn't think Dong Zhishi had the guts to do such a presumptuous thing.

Koizumi asked his exclusive driver, Kondo, to go home, while he booked a room in a nearby business hotel for emergency needs.When I called Hatano, the senior housekeeper of Maodao Residence, Hatano didn't look particularly flustered.

"That's it."

That's the only way he reacted.

It seems that Hatano can guess what Dong Zhishi is planning.

After reporting to Hatano, Koizumi also breathed a sigh of relief.

The lovers of the Maodao family should be quite worried now, right?It might be nice for this to happen once in a while, and Koizumi was in a mischievous mood on rare occasions.From the eyes of others, the relationship between Mao Dao and his lover seems to always be the lover's side.Although this shows how infatuated Mao Dao is with the other party, Koizumi wants him to see the other party's flustered expression more.

Mao Dao didn't return to his lover tonight, maybe it could accidentally bring new excitement to their relationship.

After Dongzhi called Mikimoto to the room he reserved for tonight, he fidgeted back and forth like a bear, and said, "Although it's good for you to hold Koizumi for an hour, but it's okay if Kajuko is not enthusiastic enough! Then Does the guy know how old she is? She doesn't seem to want to get married at all, she's really anxious to death."

"How do you feel, Mr. Maoshima?"

Mikimoto asked this question with a little hesitation, and Dongzhi showed a very distressed expression.

"I really don't understand what that man is thinking. According to Mrs. Yamazoe, he danced happily with Kajuko, and the atmosphere seems to be good. But even so, they only danced about two songs before they parted. .It seems that he really has no active interest in women."

"Because I heard that he usually looks at the garden all day long in the mansion, so from this direction, it may be faster to get him interested in the Winter Solstice House first."

Mikimoto kept his head slightly lowered, and made this suggestion to Fuyuji in a deep, not very positive voice.He is very aware that he is preparing a bold and ignorant plan, and seems to be a little uneasy about this matter.

"I repeatedly reminded the doctor to prescribe sleeping pills that won't remain in the body when I wake up in the morning, but will Mr. Maodao really not notice any abnormalities?"

"It's no use worrying about it now."

Dong Zhishi's tone was irritated and thorny. For him, this was also a desperate game, and his uneasy mood was no different from that of Mikimoto.

Dongzhi graciously sent a drink to Maodao who separated from Kajuko after the dance, invited him to drink champagne, and added sleeping pills to the wine.

I heard that Mrs. Mao Dao rarely took medicines, so Mrs. Dong Zhi talked to him at the right time, and took him to the waiting room which was prepared in advance so that no one would approach him, where Mrs. Mao fell asleep soon.Things were going so smoothly that it even made people dubious.

"If you don't use such a strong method, you won't be able to keep Mashima Sumato. Anyway, that man doesn't even respond to the prime minister's invitation."

"There are indeed such rumors."

"It's no problem, Mikimoto. As long as the matter of drugging is not exposed, we have not done anything that will be held accountable. The rest depends on tomorrow! Just take him to Kiyosato's villa as planned and let him see The garden that our family is proud of is fine. If it is a garden topic that he is good at, he should also have a good chat with Kajuko. I think it will go well!"

Mikimoto nodded quietly.

"I've heard that Mr. Kajuko is not good at occasions such as dances, so walking in the garden and chatting will definitely enrich the topics. I think Ms. Kajuko...should like Ms. Kazuko. Bar?"

"Yes, that's right
