Shota Takahashi unconsciously let go of her hand, and the two rolled together again.
Tang Yue...
What's going on with these Japanese? Is this Maki really Aoi? You can do whatever you want, but don't delay my search. Can you please get the things back?
After identifying the two individuals, Tang Yue checked everyone on the ship again. It seemed that Maki was indeed the most suspicious. Also, she hadn't paid attention before, but now, looking at the ship's security, wow, it was actually quite tight.
Those seemingly elite-looking men in suits pacing back and forth were actually skilled martial artists. However, Tang Yue couldn't quite figure out who they were protecting yet.
After all, they presented a facade of composure while maintaining a relaxed demeanor. It seemed they had verified the identities of everyone who boarded the ship, ensuring no unexpected situations would arise. They had naturally never seen someone like Tang Yue, who remained hidden at all times.
Two hours later, Maki nestled lazily in Takahashi Shota's arms. Takahashi Shota looked down at her and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Maki looked up at the man in front of her. He was in his forties, but still looked dashing and handsome. She had initially been reluctant to accept the task her family had given her, but she hadn't expected this man to be so appealing.
Maki slowly sat up, the blanket slipping off her body. She leaned slightly forward and stared at Takahashi Shota. "Shota, will you marry me?"
Shota Takahashi's face remained expressionless; he hadn't expected Maki to make such a request. "You didn't know I have a wife?"
Maki gave a slight smile. "I know, but can't we get a divorce?"
Takahashi chuckled softly, "What makes you think I should divorce my wife?"
As he spoke, his hand was already on Maki's shoulder. Maki didn't flinch, pretending to think, then blinked and asked, "Does being younger than her count?"
Takahashi chuckled and shook his head. "No, Ms. Maki, every beautiful woman grows old. I don't want to spend my whole life changing women."
Maki stared into Takahashi's eyes. "Mr. Takahashi, I think I'm more useful than your wife. You should know that I returned home with great merit this time, and I may have the opportunity to meet the Emperor."
Takahashi seemed unconcerned about this. He glanced at Maki indifferently and said, "Ms. Maki, I can give you money to spend, and I can also prepare a place for you to stay."
After all, this woman is quite capable, and he's very excited and likes her a lot. However, that doesn't mean he'll abandon his family.
Maki asked, feigning innocence, "What if the Hatoyama family becomes our backer?"
