Thought what Yumi and Ruyu said was a total of 4 words, those words shock the core of both Leon and Akira. Do they really not matter as much that the great Ruyu Lee would rather listen to some girl then acknowledge them.
Leon was fuming with anger, how could this little good-for-nothing Yumi claim that he is irrelevant.
"M-Mr.Lee I didn't mean to disrespect you, I just thought some people should elan their place". Thought he was anger and nervous at the same some, Leon did his best to put on the best smile his face could have.
"Is that so… and what place would that be".? Ruyu couldn't be even more unbothered by Leon, but what he said had to do with Yumi and that did not sit well with Ruyu. He had a murderous look towards Leon as he put down his red wine and rested his arm on the table while his face rested on his long slender fingers, he stared deep into Leon eyes.
"U-U-Um that would be below you". Leon was sweating in places he shouldn't right now. He wished he could just disappear, it would be better then being in his shoes right now.
"Then you should also know your place, Isn't that right".? Ruyu picked up his wine and looked away from Leon, he didn't want the guy to die out of fear…well not yet.
Yumi couldn't help but laugh that Leon's face. "Ruyu how many times is this that I have seen you scare the color out of someone's face". She was still laughing as she talked to Ruyu.
He was happy to see her laughing and how she siding care about what Leon said, she didn't care about useless and irrelevant people. That's one the things that he loved about her. Thinking about a smile appeared on his face. "I don't know, I lost count".
She fanned her eyes as they were watering up from laughing so much. "Ok ok that's enough now, it's getting late and I'm getting annoyed staying let's go". She looked at her watch and picked up her purse.
Talking his last sip of wine, Ruyu looked at his watch and turned to Rubin. "Tell them to deliver the dinner to our room, also add some more food and also for you guys". Ruining nodded his head as he made a call.
Joe was finally back to his senses as he saw Ruyu get up to leave. "What do you think your going".? Ruyu turned back to look at his father, raising an eyebrow and with an indifferent look he answered him. "Leaving obviously, can't you see that".?
"What you can't". Joe slammed his hand on his table but Ruyu didn't even flinch. "Why can't I".? Joe was getting irritated. He needs to settle the marriage between Ruyu and Aika. If he doesn't he will never have the chance to take over Empires Corp.
"We still have some decision to make over your marriage, the engagement will be announced next month at party and the wedding will happen in the next few months". Joe finally sat down thinking that he got through Ruyu as he wasn't responding nor did he interrupt him.
Aika was getting excited thinking about the party and wedding. She was finally gong to marry him, Ruyu couldn't possibly say 'No' to his father.
"What part of 'I won't marry such a useless woman' did you not understand father".? Ruyu gave him a look that said 'are you dump or deaf'?.
Joe lost it. He got up to speak but was interrupted by Ruyu. "Father let me tell you again, Empires Corp. is mine, I made it from scratch. I didn't inherit it from you so you have no right to have a saying about it, and I most certainly don't need to marry someone for more power, I want someone who already has the same power as I do, not a gold digger".
He left all fo them speechless. Aika was trembling in fear and in anger, while Joe just stood there not knowing what to say next. All that could be heard was Yumi's laughing as the four left the room, and it was back it the silence that it was before.
