Mitsuki Kudo, who returned home, was surprised to see her father at home. She also didn't expect the other party to come.

Kudo Wakana got up and said to her daughter, "Your father said in person that he was going to spend the night here tonight." I'm going to get ready for supper. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she went straight to her open kitchen. She put on her kitchen skirt and hummed songs.

Mitsuki Kudo slowly walked towards her father, then turned around and sat down and said, "My mother is so happy, it must be not just my father who promised her to stay overnight!" ”

Masao Ishihara said calmly: "I also talked to your mother about Shuichi's marriage. Mayor Ishikawa of Wakayama City wants to marry his only daughter to your younger brother. What do you think about this? ”

Mitsuki Kudo didn't show inexplicable excitement at all, but asked tentatively, "Dad, it can't be that the other party has something to ask you, right?" ”

Masao Ishihara smiled and said, "It's really you who are smart." ”

Mizuki Kudo said the sentence just now, not without reason. In any case, this marriage came too suddenly. Beforehand, I didn't know a thing or two from my mother.

According to common sense, even if the mayor of Wakayama City takes a fancy to Shuichi and intends to marry his daughter to him, he will let the two young people have more contact first.

For this reason, it is impossible for Kudo Shuichi not to take the initiative to tell his mother, after all, the person who is going to officially date is not an ordinary girl, but the daughter of the mayor's family.

If my mother knew, it was impossible that she would not take the initiative to talk to herself. In this family, my mother will discuss with me.

Mitsuki Kudo thoughtfully made a bold speculation of her own: "As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon." As far as I know, the mayor election is about to take place in Wakayama City.

Ishikawa Mayor Ishikawa's polls are not ideal, so he urgently needs support. He and Dad used to have an old relationship, and they will definitely think of you.

In order to be able to show a full sincerity from himself first, then political marriage is tantamount to the best choice at the moment. ”

Masao Ishihara nodded, showing his approval of her statement, and said, "Go on." ”

Mitsuki Kudo said seriously: "I'm just a little sorry for Miss Ishikawa. If she is really a good girl, not only as a victim of her father's political interests, but also blind to Xiuyi's hands.

The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. Even if Xiuyi gets married, he won't be retracted. If Miss Ishikawa wasn't a good girl, even if she and Shuichi got married, they would just be a masked couple, each playing their own games. ”

Masao Ishihara said lukewarmly: "Do you think Shuichi will oppose this marriage?" ”

Mitsuki Kudo smiled slightly and said, "Dad, didn't you ask knowingly?" For Shuichi, marrying anyone is marrying. If he marries a woman he likes, he will stay at home for a long time in the future.

On the contrary, marrying a woman that he doesn't like is nothing more than staying at home less in the future. His stomach was full of fancy intestines. ”

Masao Ishihara has told the truth: "At that time, you will accompany your mother to Wakayama City." If you think it's possible, then you should get married. If you don't think it's right, don't force it. ”

Mitsuki Kudo took the initiative to stretch out two fingers of her right hand and said, "It's not impossible for me to accompany my mother to Wakayama City." But first, Dad, you have to agree to my two small requests. ”

Ishihara Masao couldn't help laughing and said, "Dead girl, you can actually learn to negotiate terms with me." Shuichi is your own brother. You, who is a sister, should think more about Xiuyi! ”

Mitsuki Kudo said seriously: "It is precisely because I am thinking about the future of Xiuichi that I will make two small requests to you." ”

Masao Ishihara smiled and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

Mitsuki Kudo said truthfully: "First, I need my father to promise me that I can use your private plane this time. ”

Masao Ishihara said without the slightest hesitation: "Yes." ”

Only then did Mitsuki Kudo make a second request: "Ryunosuke Oda, who is the head of the president's secretary office of the Karuizawa Group, will have to go to Wakayama City with me and my mother to meet the Ishikawa family.

If he is there, it not only represents a positive attitude of his father, but also makes the Ishikawa family not feel slighted.

This is very important for Shuichi to be truly accepted by the Ishikawa family in his heart, and it shows that Shuichi is not untreated by his father. ”

Masao Ishihara pointed out, "You little clever ghost. You're so sure I'm not going to go to Wakayama City with you? ”

Mitsuki Kudo said, "Dad, you are a local bigwig at the moment." Your every move will be watched by many parties, especially journalists.

Once a media reporter smells something, it will inevitably flock to it, after all, who wouldn't want to get an exclusive report from you?

Besides, it would be completely unreasonable to go to Wakayama City to meet the Ishikawa family in person with your social status and status. Anyway, you're not going to meet old friends for pure reminiscence.

This trip will inevitably involve some real interests between officials and businessmen. Oda is here, so it's much more convenient. What can be promised on the spot, he can call the shots.

If you can't agree to something on the spot, he can also report it to you as soon as possible. Mayor Ishikawa needs your support for his mayoral campaign, so he has to promise you what he wants.

Shuichi and his daughter's marriage is not what you really want, but just as you have established enough mutual trust between the two of you.

There is nothing wrong with letting Shuichi take the path of politics in the future. Good for him, good for us, good for everyone, it's a win-win situation. ”

Masao Ishihara smiled with satisfaction: "Mitsuki, you have grown again." ”

Mitsuki Kudo also laughed and said, "Dad, you praise me like this." I'll be proud. ”

Ishihara Masao agreed: "I agreed to both of your requests. Once the time for the meeting between the two parties is finalized, Oda will personally inform you in advance.

This trip is dominated by you. Even Oda and your mother are just accompanied. One thing I correct you is that it is not Oda who represents me, but you who represent me. ”

Mitsuki Kudo understood her mission and said, "I will try my best to do this one thing well, and do it successfully, so that both parties can be satisfied." ”

Masao Ishihara expressed his personal attitude: "Don't put any pressure on yourself. If you can't talk about it, don't talk about it. The most we have lost on our side is nothing more than Shuichi's marriage and work as the mayor's secretary.

My old classmate's heart will definitely be much more anxious than yours, after all, I am reluctant to lose everything I have at the moment, especially power. ”
