Meteorite Jade Scandal

Chapter 79 - Big Loss

-Yokohama, Japan-

Two girls were commenting on the appearance of a man in front of him.

"You look cool, Gege," said the slender girl.

"And your hair is now cooler than your previous hairstyle. Aah, I think I want to grab your long and curly hair first, Gege," said another girl.

"Hey, that's the hallmark of my clan, you know! Oh yeah, we've known each other for more than a month, but I still don't understand why you call me 'Gege', even though this is Japan right?" said the short-haired handsome man earlier.

It might remind you that he's actually from the Schneider clan. Yes, he was the First Prince of Fotia, Zarius Schneider.

"Yes, even though we were born and raised in Japan, our Chichi comes from China. So, we mix all the languages."

"Jiejie, you forgot! Our Pitamahi also comes from India. So we often mix Japanese, Mandarin, and Indian," said the woman with long slender hair, arrogantly.

Zarius drew closer to the two girls. He ruffled the girls' hair, just as brothers do little sisters.

Two girls carelessly spilled udon, the larger of the ramen noodles, right in front of the old man who was sitting leisurely in his rocking chair.

"Aakh, so udon spilled! It's you, Mei!!" shouted the shoulder-length haired girl at the younger girl.

"Eh? Why are you blaming me anyway? It was Jiejie who wasn't careful with the bowl. The Udon for Grandpa Watanabe spilled." It was the shoulder-length long haired girl who answered.

"If you don't nudge me, the udon won't spill, Hana-chan!" The older girl snapped again.

The old man who was still sitting in the chair rubbed his temples, dizzy. He had to hear the commotion from the two girls, who were the daughters of his neighbour.

"Stop it, stop it! Grandpa is full, I just finished eating." The old man's voice, broke up the quarrel between the two young girls.

"But, Grandpa! Nana made this udon with love and a seasoning of affection as a complement. If you eat it, you'll get better immediately." Nana, it was the old sister who spoke.

"Hahaha, thank you for your concern. Because you are often here, grandfather has never felt alone all this time," said the old man while stroking the hair of 2 girls. The two girls he considered as his grandchildren.

"Grandpa, even though you are not our biological grandfather, but we really love you, Grandpa," said Nana.

"Hana also really loves Grandpa. Just like Jiejie."

The two girls hugged the slightly chubby man they called Grandpa Yoshinori Watanabe. The head of the Yakuza Okami-kai organization. A well-known legal organization in Japan.

"I wonder why Grandpa's grandson has never been here? In fact, Grandpa is a very good grandfather," Hana chirped. She was talking about Grandpa Watanabe's grandson, who was currently living overseas.

Might remind us of Watanabe's name, won't it? Well, that grandfather was Zhang Sifeng's grandfather.

"If Nana became a grandfather. Nana would really hate that young man. And that young man would have fired him as a grandson! It was easy to ignore his own grandfather. You stupid young man!" Nana said while clenching her hands.

Nana stared straight out the window, full of vengeance. In fact, Nana has never actually met Grandpa Watanabe's grandson, but the seeds of hatred have grown in Nana's heart. Nana just doesn't like it because Grandpa Watanabe's grandson seems to ignore his own grandfather.

Nana's reaction, showing openly her hatred for Grandpa Watanabe's grandson, was greeted with giggles by her adoptive grandfather and little sister.

"Hahaha ... the reality is very different from what you think, Grandchildren," said the man who was around 60 years old.

A bespectacled man entered the room of the 'godfather of yakuza, Yoshinori Watanabe'.

"There is bad news, Godfather. Young Master Zhang Sifeng had an accident at his project site. However, things are fine for now. Young Master Zhang only has a few burns and seems to be more severe psychic injuries." The man in black glasses reported to Grandpa Yoshinori Watanabe.

"Alright. Keep an eye on my grandson, keep me updated on how he's doing!" Mr Watanabe's orders.

"All right, Godfather." The man bowed, otherwise known as 'ojigi' in Japan. Then, the man left this room.

The two girls who had been there for a long time also looked at each other. Who else if not Hana and Nana.

"So, grandpa's grandson's name is Sifeng?" Hana asked, pinching her chin.

"Actually, Zhang Sifeng is a name given to him by his father from China. Grandpa himself gave him the name Watanabe Takumi, since he wasn't born yet. Your aunt Haruhi said that her son had died from birth. Grandfather only found out that my grandson was still alive 2 years ago." Watanabe's grandfather explained.

"Why does auntie have the heart to---" Hana's words were stopped when her sister pinched Hana's arm.

"None of our business, Mei!" whispered Nana, the older sister to her little sister.

"Okay, let's go home first, Grandpa! We'll be visiting Grandpa often. Don't worry! Grandpa won't be alone if you have good neighbors like us. Hehehe...."

"Thank you, Nana-chan! Hana-chan!"

After bowing to Watanabe's grandfather, Nana walked out while forcibly holding her sister, before Hana asked questions that would make Watanabe's grandfather sad.

Watanabe's grandfather stared out the window. He is aware that every baby born into this world is in a pure state. The adultery of both parents is unlawful, not the baby.

The baby boy was completely innocent, what was at fault was his daughter Haruhi Watanabe's disgrace.

Mr. Watanabe felt sorry. He was the one who contributed to the destruction of his family. Mr. Watanabe should have been more accepting of Sifeng's presence before, not kicking Miss Haruhi even before giving birth to Sifeng.

Mr. Watanabe regretted not accepting the boy in the first place. He shouldn't have let go of his daughter's hand when she was down.

Mr. Watanabe really feels like a failure to be a father and a grandfather at the same time.

"Forgive your grandfather, Takumi-kun!" He whispered, calling out Zhang Sifeng's Japanese name.

-Hainan Island, China-

A handsome young man, watching the news from the tv mounted on the wall. He was in a room where the walls were dominated by white paint.

Well, that is the treatment room of one of the hospitals in Sanya. And the young man lying on the bed watching the tv show was Zhang Sifeng.

The news that Sifeng watched featured a great building fire. The fire occurred in one of the areas on Hainan Island.

From the television screen, a reporter can be seen reporting from where the fire occurred a few days ago. Behind the reporter was seen a building that was charred and destroyed because before the fire there had been a great explosion inside the building, Robort Theme Park.

The reporter said, "This is the beginning of the collapse of the giant company Zhang Group. Their dream robot garden building has been burned down. Now only rubble is left, as seen behind me.

"Since the fire incident a few days ago, Zhang Group's share price has fallen drastically. It can be said that the company is currently going through bankruptcy."

The reporter had interviewed the president of another company Taiyang Group, Zhang Group's big rival, who happened to be at the scene. Maybe they want to survey how the Zhang Group's current big project is collapsing.

The reporter asked, "How do you react to the collapse of your rival company, Mr. Lin?"

"Hahaha, I blame Minghao's stupidity. He left the responsibility for such a big project to a kid. A kid who can't even blow his nose properly, hahaha ...." Chairman Lin commented.

The reporter replied, "But, Young Master Zhang was also a victim of the fire accident."

"It could have been that unstable boy who carried out the suicide bombing. I heard, Little Zhang is Minghao's illegitimate child with a Geisha. If I were Minghao, I would definitely hide such a child forever. If necessary I would exile the young man abroad. What's there to be proud of from such an illegitimate child, heh?" Chairman Lin replied, with a condescending laugh.

"Well, that's it, Viewers. That was my little interview with a businessman from Beijing. From this incident, there were those who were saddened by the fate of Zhang Group, some were very happy like Mr. Lim earlier.

"The worst news is, investors are threatening to demand huge damages if the project is stopped suddenly. Hopefully Zhang Group can get past this. I Jiang Li reported directly from the scene per--."

Click!

The television channel was suddenly turned off by someone, who had just entered Sifeng's infirmary. Zhang Yushen was the one who had just entered this room.

"Why are you watching shows like this, A-Feng?"

Yushen's voice sounded a little angry. He really didn't like it when his brother saw the trending news lately. Well, the news of the destruction of Zhang Group's big project, which is always broadcast on almost many national television channels.
