Chapter 437 Ryan's Misunderstanding
🕑 Added 2025-08-26 15:54:30 +0000 UTCLogically speaking, it should be a very happy thing for Nanaya to eat Toshi Yoroizuka once in two lifetimes.
After all, he was a poor boy who was scared away by the prices back then, but now he has the opportunity to eat a feast in this restaurant, which is a relief.
If this were an online novel from a few years ago, it would be a case of "Don't bully the young and poor."
However, the fact is that Nanaya was not happy with the meal.
Of course this has nothing to do with the store. Although Toshi Yoroizuka dessert shop charges a lot, both the food and the service are worth the price.
But the process of eating dessert is a pain.
"So, why did it become like this..."
Nanaya let out a helpless sigh.
"It was my first time to eat a Michelin three-star dessert. And to have afternoon tea with the person I love. These two happy things happened together..."
"That's enough, Senior!"
Ori slapped Nanaya on the forehead.
"Hey, Ori, why did you hit me?"
Nanaya covered his head and looked at Ori aggrievedly.
"I'm sorry, I just feel like if I let you finish what you're saying, I won't be able to help but smother you."
Ori said coldly.
Ryan on the other side also poked his chest with his chin in a serious manner. "Indeed, Kiryu, you should be positive and look forward. Sighing like this is not the style of our Wettin family."
[When did I become a member of your Wettin family? ]
When Nanaya looked at Ryan, his eyes popped out.
But the seven nights of surprise had nothing to do with Ryan's chin playing trampoline on her own peak.
Although this scene really made people admire Ryan's somewhat exaggerated size, Nanaya simply did not have enough energy to appreciate this beautiful scenery.
After coming out of the dessert shop, everyone gave the space next to Nanaya to Ori and Ryan.
So on the way home, Nanaya had to be sandwiched between the two generals, one on each side, and the scene was broadcast to all parts of Japan through cameras.
In the words of Shion and the others, this is to act out the whole play.
But Nanaya knew very well that the real purpose of these girls was not to allow anyone to take the initiative.
Anyway, whether it's Ori or Ryan.
Everyone is well aware of the fact that these two are harmless to Nanaya.
So these girls are happy to push these two in front of the public, while the rest of them are secretly fighting for them.
The public just wanted to watch the fun, and Ori and Ryan's identities were enough to satisfy everyone's gossip desire.
In this way, they can hide in the background and find ways to harm Nanaya.
It's easy to deal with Ori's side, but Ryan seemed to really believe the nonsense of Lily and the other girls.
She probably really thought that Lily liked Nanaya, so she started to ask for Nanaya as a relative.
"Keep your head up and chest out." Ryan ordered Nanaya, "Although you and Lily haven't officially confirmed your relationship yet, you still represent Lily's vision. Your words and actions must meet Lily's standards."
“I think there might be some misunderstanding here…”
Ryan's eyes narrowed, and she immediately exuded a dangerous aura: "Why? Are you saying that your attitude towards Lily is just a joke, Kiryu? Or do you think that my Lily is not worthy of a great director like you?"
"Of course not, it's just..."
Nanaya subconsciously shrank his neck. His intuition told him that if he had refused just now, something terrible and life-threatening would definitely happen.
"That's good. I know that Lily is forcing all of you to cooperate with this drama because of the confidentiality agreement."
Ryan said seriously: "I personally think that if you like someone, you should admit it openly. But since it is a professional requirement, there is nothing I can do about it. I will try my best to cooperate with her."
Nanaya thought that he should just give up explaining, as the more he explained the more things would make things worse.
So on the way home, Nanaya didn't say a word the whole time and just acted like a quiet handsome man.
The reporters following behind Nanaya were also very satisfied, although the two women, Ryougi Ori and Ryan Wettin, did not fight in the end.
But the material that these gossip reporters have obtained so far is enough to sell for a week, and the content is never repeated.
What they are most concerned about now is who of these two will accompany Kiryu Nanaya to celebrate the New Year, or will it be both of them?
When the reporters saw Nanaya Kiryu walking into the house with a group of beauties, big and small, all the reporters applauded and cheered excitedly.
The atmosphere was as if NASA had sent a message about one small step for mankind.
So many beauties going into the Kiryu family’s luxurious villa together, what are they doing?
Are we going to play a battle royale game? Who will be the last one left alive?
But with so many women, can Kiryu Nanaya handle them all?
Just when many unscrupulous tabloids were making reckless speculations and trying to spread all kinds of negative news.
Shion stood up.
She turned around and smiled at all the reporters and said, "Thank you all for taking photos today. The next time will be our private party in Trier."
Shion ignored the reporters' expectant eyes and told them something very cruel: "Director Kiryu saw that Trier had worked very hard for a year, so he specially gave the villa to all Trier members to relax during the New Year."
The reporters expressed their dissatisfaction, but all of them were ignored by Nanaya and others.
But Shion did something even more extreme. She advertised directly to the camera.
"After the New Year holiday, Trier will start a new round of member selection. Young girls in front of the TV, if you are interested, you can directly register with Trier's official management~"
Great, my big boss. Is there anyone who does advertising like you?
Nanaya's face was full of black lines, he didn't know how to describe this strange situation.
But Nanaya was very clear about one thing: today's matter was far from over.
Rin has secretly given him warning glances several times.
————————————————————————————————————
The door of the Kiryu family's villa was opened.
"Go in!" Tohsaka Rin ordered Nanaya.
The bright smile outside was now as cold as frost.
Of course, Rin wasn't the only one with such an expression. The sweet smile on Sakura's face also turned into a dark and resentful look.
"We are back."
Sakura said this in a formulaic tone, without any ups and downs, as if it was just a routine matter.
Of course, what Sakura said was not wrong, because she and Rin still had their rooms in Nanaya Villa.
"Welcome back."
Nanaya behaved very well, he even took the initiative to hand slippers to Rin and Sakura.
The bowing and scraping look seemed a bit fawning.
"Hmph~"
But Rin and Sakura did not appreciate his kindness. After confirming that there was no luggage they had left in the villa on the living room floor, they went straight to the room upstairs.
"Don't worry, I didn't touch your things."
Shion shouted at the two people's backs with a smile, looking like she was enjoying the fun.
"Oh, it looks like they are really angry."
Seeing that the two girls ignored her, Shion laughed.
"Is this the time to talk about this?!" Nanaya was completely overwhelmed.
"I think you should show some courage, Senior." Ori pinched his chin and said, "Give those two girls a good beating and let them know who is the head of the Kiryu family."
Nanaya was so angry that he wanted to hit someone: "I told you to stop making trouble."
Ori said with disdain: "Senior, you can't even manage your concubine."
"Please stop talking to me!"
"Kiryu."
Ryan spoke. She was the only person present with a gentle expression on her face.
"Tohsaka and Shimoya were just checking on Lily to see if you had done anything to offend her. They are good sisters, so it's understandable that they care so much about Lily."
"..."
Nanaya now really wants to learn Lily's skills in fooling her sister. How did she make Ryan so convinced that he and Lily are a couple and that everyone else is doing it for their own good?
"Hey, sister. Let's go see if there's anything missing from our room. We're going to stay here for the next few days."
Although Lily didn't have a good look towards Nanaya, she still pulled Ryan away.
After all, the interrogation would begin soon, and Ryan, who didn't know the truth, was not suitable to be a bystander.
"Nanaya."
At this time, Rin, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared at the stairs and hooked her finger at Nanaya.
"Come up."
"Go ahead." Shion patted Nanaya's shoulder, "I don't think they will go too far."
"Really?"
Nanaya didn't think so. He had never seen Rin so angry.
Shion analyzed seriously, "Because they interrogated you in the room, not in the kitchen. So at least it shows that they didn't intend to use a knife on you."
"..."
[What you said makes a lot of sense. I am speechless.]
Nanaya followed Rin up to the second floor with a fearless expression.
"Let's go to the kitchen."
Shion called out to Ori and Shiki.
"Ah?"
"What? Aren't there so many people not going to have dinner tonight?"
"I want a big meal!"
Shiki immediately raised her hand.
"Very good. Let me show you my strength, Washimine Shion! I will make you a delicious meal today."
Shion rolled up her sleeves excitedly, her eyes full of confidence.
"I said, can you make something with fewer calories?"
Ori expressed in a tactful way that she hoped Shion could control her sister's diet.
"My dear Otoutou, look at what you said, today is Chinese New Year~" Shiki said happily, "Of course we have to eat something rich!"
However, Kanei-shiki didn't know that although Shion appeared very confident, her cooking skills were far from comparable to her achievements in business.
The only things Shion can make are simple sandwiches and vegetable salads for weight loss.
