Chapter 1134: Chapter 87 Milk Tea X Belief!_3
“Can I drink it now?”
Jason asked.
“Of course you can.”
Hanakaiin Itsuki replied with a smile, watching as Jason eagerly picked up the two specially crafted cups of milk tea. The smile at the corner of his lips deepened.
He wasn’t even paying attention to the stakes, only focusing on the milk tea itself.
Losing to soone like this…
He oddly felt at peace with it.
There wasn’t a trace of regret.
Only a sense of eting a kindred spirit.
Should I just get rid of Haru?
A person like Jason, partnering with soone who doesn’t understand milk tea, is truly a waste.
He should be with instead.
But would this make Jason dislike ?
As Hanakaiin Itsuki pondered this, Jason was busy sipping his milk tea.
Ryosuke, on the other hand, found it unbelievable.
He won just like that?
Is Jason so kind of milk tea bloodhound?
As these thoughts swirled in Ryosuke’s mind, he watched Jason gulp down the milk tea. Suppressing the urge brought on by his salivating mouth, he averted his gaze to the window outside.
He wanted milk tea too!
But… he had no money!
What about grabbing a cup off the table?
He looked at Jason, then at Hanakaiin Itsuki.
Ryosuke wisely chose to give up.
Jason sipped the milk tea, Itsuki watched, and Ryosuke struggled to hold back his drool. Before long, the atmosphere in the restaurant turned into sothing strange, until the liveliness of Onodera storming inside changed everything.
Onodera stood behind Jason. When Jason finished the last bit of his milk tea, Onodera imdiately grabbed a tissue from the side and handed it to Jason.
At the sa ti, he turned to look at Sato standing not far away.
At this mont, Sato was completely at a loss.
Onodera actually told the truth?
He wasn’t lying to ?
Then why did he have that expression just now?
Could it be…
To set up?
Dammit! Bastard!
Though cursing Onodera in his mind, Sato’s face betrayed nothing.
He offered a very amicable smile.
Gone was his usual stern deanor.
He bent slightly at the waist, bowing to Hanakaiin Itsuki.
“Young Master Itsuki, good afternoon.”
“Hmm.”
Hanakaiin Itsuki responded indifferently.
At first, he had co here because of Sato.
After Yamashita’s death, he needed a collaborator within “Blossom Cherry.”
Sato’s position made him the first candidate.
But, after eting Jason, Hanakaiin Itsuki inexplicably hoped Jason could beco his partner instead.
As for “Blossom Cherry?”
Didn’t you see Onodera and Ryosuke?
Since these two stood behind Jason, their relationship was clearly close. That ant they could be collaborators too.
Additionally, compared to Sato’s price tag, the two were undoubtedly much cheaper.
And worth cultivating.
Hanakaiin Itsuki believed that with his guidance, both of them could rise swiftly through the ranks, reaching high positions within “Blossom Cherry” in no ti.
Compared to Sato, this was definitely the more cost-effective choice.
Sato was dumbfounded by Hanakaiin Itsuki’s indifference.
This wasn’t supposed to happen!
Why was it like this?
Shouldn’t he be desperate to recruit talent?
Why was he so cold?
Sato, dazed, raised his head only to see Jason sitting across from Hanakaiin Itsuki. In an instant, he understood.
It must be because, in his earlier encounter with Jason, he’d shown too much hesitation.
It didn’t align with his usual tough deanor.
This had displeased Hanakaiin Itsuki.
And caused him to lose favor.
What’s more, Jason and Hanakaiin Itsuki had once been at odds due to the trial of the “Branch Family Joining the Main Family.” Now, sitting across from each other, they must have engaged in a verbal skirmish before I arrived.
Though I didn’t know the outco of their exchange, it was clear Hanakaiin Itsuki needed soone to “cheer him on.”
Soone who could give him the upper hand.
With that in mind, Sato straightened his posture.
Then, slamming the table forcefully, he addressed Jason with his usual cold tone—
“Stand up! What right do you have to sit here!”
