I teach kendo in Tokyo

Nanjo Masahito's expression changed immediately.

Nanjo Honami continued: "The Western hand kissing ceremony does not match my kimono. Moreover, my grandfather is a very traditional person and he does not like Western etiquette."

This is true, so what Honami said is fair and square.

Now even Nanjo Masahito couldn't say anything more on this issue. He could only forcefully skip this link: "Well, it's raining outside. Please come inside. My father has been waiting in the main hall for a long time."

Honami also cooperated with her father and invited the two distinguished guests into the house.

The group entered the house and were quickly led to the hall where Nanjo Hiro was waiting.

As soon as he saw Representative Asakura, Nanjo Hiroshi stood up and said: "My legs and feet are not very bright, so I am not meeting you from a distance."

"It's okay, it's okay." Councilor Asakura immediately became polite.

While the adults were exchanging pleasantries, Honami guided Asakura Yasumi to his location.

Then Honami sat down next to Asakura Yasumi, completely ignoring her father's instructions and maintaining a distance between men and women.

The servant brought the tea, and Honami still assumed her responsibility for the time being, and was responsible for placing the tea in front of Asakura Yasumi.

Then she started drinking tea by herself.

Asakura Yasunumi glanced at the adults who were still chatting politely, glanced sideways at the beauty next to him, and said, "Miss Nanjo, what do you... usually like?"

"I like quiet." Honami replied without hesitation.

She does like silence - of course it is common for the sports club to shout loudly during kendo club activities, but this does not conflict with Honami's preference for silence.

Asakura Yasunumi looked embarrassed.

Perhaps this rejection was too obvious and inconsistent with the policy of "saving the country through curves" that was the key agreement with Suzuki. Honami took the initiative to add: "I'm just kidding. I like kendo."

"That's right, I also like kendo. I practiced it for a year in high school..."

Just when Yasumasa Asakura was about to unfold his story, the adults seemed to have finished their greetings, and the engagement process was about to continue.

Nanjo Masahito turned around and waved to Honami, motioning the two young people to come over.

Honami put down the tea that she had just taken two sips of, stood up, and walked over with her head held high.

Asakura Yasumi quickly stood up and caught up with her.

**

The engagement ceremony was actually very simple and was completed quickly.

Although it is just an engagement, it also shows that the Nanjo Foundation and Assemblymember Asakura have formed an offensive and defensive alliance and will advance and retreat together on many issues in the future.

After the business was done, it was natural for the banquet.

Rather, the banquet is the highlight, as both parties hope to further deepen their understanding of their new allies at the banquet.

Japanese banquets are not like those in China where everyone sits around a large table with a glass turntable and eats together happily.

They all use small tables that can only be used by one or two people. They place such a table in front of each person and serve food while eating.

Nanjo Honami and Asakura Yasumi were naturally assigned a table for two.

Before entering the table, Nanjo Masahito once again seized the opportunity to tell his daughter: Come closer!

Not only that, during the process of sitting down, Honami could always feel her father looking at her.

She could only reluctantly get closer to Asakura Yasumi.

Asakura Yasumi looked very happy and took the initiative to move closer to Honami.

Honami unconsciously tilted her body to the side to avoid touching Asakura Yasumi with her shoulder.

"Miss Honami," Asakura Yasumi asked politely, "Is it my imagination? I always feel that you are avoiding me."

"It's your illusion." Honami replied immediately.

At this time, Nanjo Masahito raised his glass high: "Let's celebrate the marriage of the Nanjo family and the Asakura family, cheers!"

Honami wanted to jump out and remind her father that they weren't married yet, they were just engaged.

But eventually she controlled her impulse.

Somehow, she felt that the desire in her heart to make a big fuss regardless was getting stronger and stronger.

Nanjo Honami glanced at Butler Suzuki, who was standing silently behind her grandfather, suppressed her inner impulse, picked up the wine glass filled with juice, and toasted with everyone.

After the toast, Nanjo Masahito continued: "Now, I would like to ask my daughter to play a piano piece to entertain everyone!"

In this way, the process of the banquet went on one after another, and soon everyone was a little drunk.

"Honami!" Asakura Yasumi drunkenly grabbed Honami's hand that was cutting steak, "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen!"

Just as Honami was about to respond, Asakura Yasunumi fell in her direction——

Honami's quick eyesight and hands quickly blocked him and supported him, preventing others from falling on her.

"That's great. I like this kind of woman who can support a man best." Asakura Yasumi said with a smile.

The smell of alcohol coming out of Asakura Yasumi's mouth was mixed with the smell of swill - he must have vomited just now when he went to the toilet.

This gave Honami the urge to vomit.

She had to push Asakura Yasunumi's face aside to prevent the alcohol from spraying on her face.

"Don't be so heartless, you are my fiancée!" Asakura Yasumi shouted loudly, and then stretched his right hand to Honami's knee——

Honami slapped his hand away.

"That's too much, Honami-chan!" Asakura Yasunumi tried his old trick again.

This time, Honami aimed at his face and slapped him.

The snap was very loud. After all, Honami practiced kendo and her basic strength was very good.

Asakura Yasumi's upper body was whipped and twisted almost 180 degrees.

For a moment, the entire banquet hall fell silent.

Everyone is looking here.

Nanjo Masahito was furious and shouted: "Honami! Apologize!"

Honami glanced at her father and stood up——

This gave her enough space to round her arms, use the strength of her waist - and then slap Asakura Yasunumi on the face.

The congressman's second son was slapped down on the table and his face fell directly into the plate of vegetable salad.

After finishing the fight, Honami looked around the whole room and said loudly: "Such a thing, someone actually told me that he has good character? If he can harass me by being drunk, he will definitely harass the subordinates at his workplace, and the people he met during the friendship Female college classmate!”

"Shut up!" Nanjo Masahito slammed the table hard and stood up, "That's because you are her fiancée! How could Senator Asakura's son harass other women? Kneel down! To Senator Asakura and Yasumi-kun Apologize!"

Nanjo Honami glared at her father for the first time since she was born.

She felt that a powerful force was rolling in her chest, and it was about to break through her chest and rush out.

To be patient and forbearing, just to avoid messing up the big plan, you have to be taken advantage of by a man you don't like?

It’s not that I, Nanjo Honami, think too highly of myself. Is this man worthy of being such a bear?

After so many years, I have given up so many things I like and made so many compromises in exchange for this thing?

I have put in so much sweat, learned so many things, cultivated my character, and what is waiting for me in the end is this?

He doesn’t know a word of romance, he doesn’t know a single act of a handsome gentleman, and he only has one face—this face is not my cup of tea!

That's it? That's it?

All dissatisfaction, all regrets surged from the depths of the sea of ​​​​memory, converging into strong emotions.

With such emotions, Nanjo Honami walked around from behind the table and came to the middle of the banquet hall.

Then she knelt down in the direction of her father, Masahito Nanjo, and her mother, Ai Nanjo, with her three fingers together and her forehead touching the ground.

"I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, thank you for your kindness in raising me. Today, I will be unfilial to my daughter!"

Nanjo Masahito's whole body felt bad. He was about to say something when his daughter stood up like a spring.

Nanjo Honami flicked her arm and skillfully lowered the collar of her kimono halfway, exposing her right shoulder and arm - this made it easier to move.

Then she rushed towards the servant holding the ceremonial sword for performance - according to the plan, it was time to perform the sword dance soon.

With a crisp sound, the long sword was unsheathed, and the bright blade reflected the light of the chandelier on the ceiling.

Nanjo Honami struck the desk in front of Senator Asakura with a knife, and the unedged blade directly smashed the wine-filled Kocho into two halves.

In Japan, this meant breaking the alliance.

Looking at the wine dish that was split in half, Honami smiled because she had never been so happy since she was born.

"This marriage," she announced loudly, "I don't want to make an engagement anymore!"
