I Worked Overtime on Saturday... The Extra Updates Will Have to Wait Until Next Week, When I'll Make Them Up a Little Each Day

Shen Yi looked at Mayumi Saegusa's panicked expression, a smile flashing across her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.

"Don't be so nervous, just relax," Shen Yi said calmly.

Mayumi Saegusa nodded, and was about to greet him when Yunyi stopped her.

" Mayumi, call her Sister Yi," Yunyi instructed.

Mayumi Saegusa was a little confused, but she still listened to Yunyi and called out " Sister Yi ".

After Shen Yi had the two of them sit down, she personally poured them water.

"This girl is quite pretty. You didn't use any underhanded methods to coerce her into being your girlfriend, did you? Otherwise, how could anyone be interested in someone as disliked as you?" Shen Yi looked at Mayumi Saegusa for a while, making her feel a little uncomfortable, before speaking to Yunyi.

"Am I really his biological child?" Yunyi asked helplessly.

"Biologically speaking, you are indeed my biological child. It's just that I don't really like you. Don't think too much about it."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, Yunyi couldn't help but roll his eyes. He had absolutely no way to deal with this person in front of him. Putting aside her sharp tongue that could kill, he was helpless against her bloodline suppression.

Seeing Yunyi's humiliation, Mayumi Saegusa struggled to suppress her laughter. Shen Yi, standing nearby, remarked, "Laugh if you want to. He wouldn't dare do anything in front of me."

"Pfft~"

Hearing Shen Yi say that, Mayumi Saegusa couldn't help but laugh.

Yunyi's face darkened even more, but what could he do in this situation? If he angered his mother, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I'm quite satisfied with this girl, but don't forget what I told you the other day. Now take her for a walk, and we'll have dinner together later before going back." Shen Yi seemed to have achieved her goal, waving her hand dismissively at the two who had just sat down.

Yunyi reluctantly led Mayumi Saegusa the archives.

As soon as the hatch behind them closed, Mayumi Saegusa Nanagusa leaned against Yunyi Yunyi. She pinched him hard and complained in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand that we were coming to see your mother? It's so important!"

"I didn't expect her to receive the message so soon. Besides, she's very busy and rarely cares about me. The number of times she asks me to come see her like this might only happen once every two or three years. Even when I do come, she just glances at me and doesn't want to spend even a minute with me before sending me away," Yunyi explained helplessly.

"Is your relationship...?" Mayumi Saegusa was unsure how to describe it.

Yunyi shook her head and said, "We have a very good relationship, but she's really busy. When I was little, before Sister Mei came to take care of me, I was always with Sister Yi. And the reason she's so busy is to help me realize my plans. She's different from my old man; she's the only one who fully supports me. It's just that she always feels that I've gone astray as I've grown up, so she's afraid that if she sees me too often, she'll dislike me even more, so she rarely sees me."

"This is really..." Mayumi Saegusa was speechless again; she truly didn't know how to describe Yunyi's relationship with his mother.

The two left the cabin and went to the deck. Standing by the ship's railing, gazing at the sea, Mayumi Saegusa asked a question, "What was your purpose in saying those things at school today?"

Yunyi nodded, then shook his head after a moment.

"Actually, given my current situation, even if I said those things, I could only influence a very small number of people. After all, I'm just a nobody, and no one is willing to believe such words and change their own perceptions. But I think there might still be some people who are willing to try to believe. It's like a seed; whether it sprouts and bears fruit depends entirely on the individual's inclination," Yunyi said.

"So, Yunyi-kun, do you really think your plan can be realized? I'm not talking about the one you made up back then," Mayumi Saegusa pressed.

Yunyi smiled. He admitted that he had Mayumi Saegusa wanted to scare Mayumi when he said those things, and he had indeed considered doing so. However, rewriting the course of the world was more challenging and exciting for him, so he gradually gave up that extreme idea.

However, realizing the current plan will not be so easy. Power, money, influence—all these elements are indispensable.

He currently holds no real power, has limited financial support, and wields negligible influence, so he can only develop step by step.

However, there are quick ways for Yunyi to obtain those things. But before doing so, he still needs to capture Gu Jie. This is not only because his head can be exchanged for the old man's support and delegation of power, but more importantly, it can completely eliminate any future troubles he might cause.

Yunyi was somewhat disappointed that he hadn't managed to get any useful clues out of Douglas Huang this time. However, he had already made plans. During the upcoming summer vacation, he would return to the United Nations to deal with those factions that were making a ruckus within the organization.

He didn't expect to completely bring them under his control, but he absolutely wouldn't allow them to become a hindrance. Especially after the attack against him last time, he would never tolerate a second such incident.

Yunyi and Mayumi Saegusa hadn't been on the ship for long when Shen Yi called them to the restaurant for a meal.

During the meeting, Shen Yi asked Mayumi Saegusa some questions, including the rather sensitive topic of political stance.

Mayumi Saegusa shared her thoughts with Shen Yi. This was the first time she had formally said in front of Yunyi that she was willing to give up her identity as Saegusa as long as she could be with Yunyi.

Shen Yi disagreed. In her opinion, whether or not he had the identity of Saegusa wouldn't affect their relationship. As long as they could control the entire Saegusa Family, maintaining this identity wouldn't matter. Wouldn't it solve the problem to eliminate the disobedient ones? After all, the Ten Master Clans of Japan value influence above all else. If her son showed more of his abilities, securing a position as a clan head would be a piece of cake.

However, since this was their first meeting, she didn't say it directly. This was because she thought Mayumi Saegusa girl. If it were someone with stronger class consciousness or who favored family development, she probably would have ordered Yunyi to throw her into the sea to fend for herself.
