Chapter: 4975

"She nodded and smiled: 'I'm sure it will look great.'"

"Ito Kanako thought of something and excitedly blurted out: 'Well, Leaf Ye, if you come to Japan next spring, I'll wear this kimono to admire the cherry blossoms with you!'"

"'Will you accompany me to appreciate the cherry blossoms?'"

Leaf Ye listened to Kanako's words and couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.

With Kanako dressed in her red kimono, surrounded by the pink cherry blossom trees, the scene would undoubtedly be beautiful.

So he told Kanako: 'Since that's the case, I'll definitely go to Japan next spring.'

Ito Kanako exclaimed with joy: 'Really? Then we're settled! Next spring, I'll wait for you in Japan!'"

The two reached an agreement, and Kanako was so thrilled she couldn't find the words to describe her emotions. She instinctively grasped Leaf Ye's arm again and took the initiative to hold hands with him, whispering softly beside him: 'Leaf Ye, I'm really too happy today... Today is originally Eudos's birthday, but who would have thought that I could come to New York to see you and find out that Eudos has recovered to his former self, which means a lot to him...'".

He said, "You don't know what kind of old man this is at home. Every day he's always grumbling and never smiles, and often sighs and laments. I understand him very well. He wants to be strong for his whole life, but suddenly fell into a state where he needs someone to take care of even daily life, which will cause a huge gap in his heart that people can hardly imagine. It's possible that he might not come out of it at all if you hadn't given Eudos new life."

As he said this, Kanako looked at Leaf Ye and grasped his hand tightly with an extremely serious expression: "Leaf Ye, thank you! Thank you for giving Eudos such precious medicine. Before, a single Spring Dan could be worth billions, but the medicine you gave Eudos is probably even more valuable than that if it were auctioned off."

Leaf Ye smiled and said, "If I put the medicine up for auction, it would certainly fetch a very high price, but I'll probably not hold another auction in the future."

Kanako was curious: "Why? Didn't the last auction go well?"

Leaf Ye sighed: "The world I see now is vastly different from what I saw at the time of the auction."

As he spoke, Leaf Ye continued: "When I thought I was competing with my external grandfather and two other top-tier families in this world, but recently I've come to realize that there are some competitors I don't understand or know nothing about. These competitors' abilities might be far stronger than those three top-tier families."

He then briefly told Kanako about his grandparents' experiences over the past few months.

Kanako listened and was already shocked into silence.

She couldn't help but sigh: "Leaf Ye, as a family that has been around for hundreds of years, it's not surprising. Although all sorts of turmoil are happening around the world, Japan is blessed with geographical advantages, so on the mainland, most families have a history spanning several hundred years... many old brands also have long histories..."

"He's been honest with me from the very beginning, I've never heard of any organization or family that can keep their strength and influence hidden for so many years..."

Saying this, Kanako continued: "Leaf Ye, you just mentioned those loyalists, and they're being controlled by this organization for hundreds of years. For hundreds of years, these loyalists have been unaware of the organization's specific circumstances, even where they live on a daily basis. This requires an extremely strong controlling power from the organization, which must be able to bridge the gap at multiple levels just to achieve this kind of control..."

As she said this, Kanako's expression became grave: "These loyalists feel like animals kept in a zoo, living only according to the requirements of their captors. They have no ability to resist their own fate. However, these loyalists are not animals; they're human beings, which means that organization behind them must be far more powerful than humans or perhaps completely out of our realm."

Leaf Ye nodded, deeply moved: "I also felt this way because of this matter, so now when I look back at the auction, it's a bit hasty. I should have kept Qing Chun as top-secret and not displayed it openly for auction like this."

Ito Kanako thoughtfully said: "Leaf Ye, in my usual understanding, strength and fame are almost mutually reinforcing, just like putting iron tea sets over hot coals. The more intense the fire, the higher the temperature of the water inside. As long as the fire is strong enough, it can boil away all the water inside the teapot, even melting the teapot itself. When we see the teapot being melted by the flames, we won't think this is beyond our normal understanding."

As she finished speaking, Ito Kanako shifted her tone and said: "However, this mysterious organization has overturned this basic logic. According to your words, they should have extremely strong strength, but their fame is almost zero. This is like having a red-hot stove with ice-cold water inside - it's hard to understand, but also proves that the organization's strength is already beyond my normal understanding."

Leaf Ye nodded and sighed: "I think you're right, so in my subconscious mind, I believe this organization's strength should be even more powerful than the three great families, but just how much stronger is still a mystery."

Ito Kanako suddenly looked up at Leaf Ye with an unconscious tone: "Leaf Ye... actually... you were once like that in my eyes... when I didn't understand you, your strength was so great it completely exceeded my understanding range, but I never heard of you. I had people investigate your background and found out that you're just a small family's adopted son-in-law from Jining - this is even more puzzling. If you hadn't revealed your strength to me, I might not have figured it out for the rest of my life." JrNovels.com
