Chapter 171 - I want an army to rule

Kiyohira scowls at Takeshi who is grinning ear to ear. "I didn't expect that you would be here." 

"I knew that something was up when you called Imamura San and ordered him to clean up the old house in M Village." Takeshi looks at him smugly. 

Kiyohira clicks his tongue. "I asked him to keep it secret."

"He didn't tell me, but I was keeping a watch on him. Don't worry. Nobody else knows. I came without telling anyone." Takeshi turns to his sister-in-law. "Sister-in-law, you are more beautiful than before. You should leave my brother and marry me."

Rie chuckles. "You called me your sister once. Are you that shameless?"

"My brother was also your brother once," Takeshi states.

"That's different." She looks away, embarrassed. "You were supposed to be my half-brother. He and I had no blood relation."

Takeshi guffaws. "My offer still stands, Sister-in-law. You know that I am better than him."

Kiyohira smacks the back of his head. "Why won't you just find a woman for yourself and stop eyeing mine?"

His family is not normal. Yuta has seen a lot in his last life, but he still can't absorb this conversation. They are not embarrassed talking about it either. He's embarrassed for them. There are people looking at them. He wants to be buried at the spot. 

"My nephew." Takeshi notices Yuta looking down with the similar expression that Rie has. His nephew looks a lot like his sister-in-law. The little boy also makes similar expressions. "Did you have a good journey?"

Yuta peers at his uncle. His uncle is young. He should be around twenty-five. In his previous life, they met a few times before Yuta was killed. He doesn't know what happened to his uncle after he died. Before his death, Kamiyama Takeshi lived a lonely life. He told him once about his first love who was living happily with another man while he could only watch from afar and wish well for her. Kamiyama men have bad luck in love without a doubt.

"I did." Yuta smiles at his uncle. "Uncle, you missed my four birthdays. I want four gifts from you."

Kiyohira furrows his brows. He has fallen in that trap before. Still, he doesn't stop his son. As much as he has observed Yuta, he will certainly ask for something that will benefit the one who is gifting. 

Rie is watching Yuta curiously. How did he become so familiar with Takeshi? Can children get close to a.d.u.l.ts in one day? Maybe they can. Takeshi is a good person. Didn't she also get close to him easily when she went to the Kamiyama Mansion?

"Sure, Yuta." Takeshi squats down on the floor and takes Yuta's hands. "What does my nephew want? If it's within my abilities, I will give it to you."

"Uncle, it's within your abilities without a doubt. I don't think that anyone else can do it." Yuta smirks at his uncle. He's not going to let his uncle have the same fate. "Father is working hard to give me a sister. You should work hard on giving me a pretty aunt and cousins. Uncle is quite handsome. So, I am sure that my cousins will be pretty too. I want an army to rule."

An army to rule? Speechless, Takeshi looks at Kiyohira. What's wrong with his nephew?

"Don't even think of turning his mother into his aunt," Kiyohira warns him. "My son is quite demanding. So, you better work hard on finding an aunt for him."

Yuta rolls his eyes. They call him demanding when he's only doing his job as a son and as a nephew. 

"Yuta, are you sure that you don't want --"

"Absolutely not." Yuta raises his hand. He wants his poor uncle to find happiness in this lifetime. "Uncle, I want a big happy family. My only uncle should work hard on making my wish come true."

"It's quite difficult for me." Takeshi sighs.

Rie raises her brow. "Why is it difficult?"

"His girl rejected him because of me," Kiyohira tells her.

"How do you know?" Takeshi widens his eyes. 

"I figured." Kiyohira rolls his eyes. "I haven't seen her for some years."

"She moved to Y city." Takeshi takes Yuta in his arms and stands up. Haru is working as an assistant producer. He hasn't heard anything about her since they graduated from college. She was happy when she got that job. "It's going to rain. We should hurry. It's a long drive."

Yuta figures that his uncle won't give him the four gifts that he asked for. It's not going to be easy. Uncle didn't budge in his previous life. He's not likely to change easily in this life. The same tactic doesn't work on two people.

He will deal with DH first. The fifth pillar is gone. The fourth pillar is Law. Yuan Bo and Maddox will be hard to tackle down. They might be looking for the hacker who penetrated Nano's system. 

"How long are you going to stay here, Brother?" Takeshi asks while driving the car. 

"Maybe forever," Kiyohira tells him without hesitation. "Don't look at me like that. You are a grown-up. Handle the Kamiyama Group. Let me live with my wife and son in peace."

"This is unfair, Elder Brother." Takeshi looks at him with disbelief. "Are you going to leave me to face the heat while you enjoy the winds of O Island?"

Rie turns her gaze out of the window. It's raining. The sky is dark. She listens to the brothers' banter quietly. Until she's free from DH, both her son and her husband have to live anonymously. She sighs. She will find some way.

Suddenly, she notices a woman standing in the rain. 

"Takeshi, stop the car."
