CHAPTER 1828 ARE YOU GOING TO HELP OR NOT

"It's been a few years. I thought you didn't recognize your Papa anymore," said Jiang Ning calmly.

Lin Yuzhen nearly fainted.

She looked at Sugita, then at Jiang Ning. He had a son of this age?!

He actually had a son without her knowledge?

"How could that be? Even if I fail to recognize my own mother, I will never forget my Papa." Sugita quickly bowed before looking at Lin Yuzhen. "And this is...?"

"My name is Lin Yuzhen."

She was afraid that Sugita might suddenly call her 'Mama', which would be simply too embarrassing.

"Hello, Miss Lin." Sugita smiled. He could tell how Lin Yuzhen was related to Jiang Ning immediately. "I'm Sugita, please take care of me."

"Why are you still standing there?" he yelled at the men behind him. "Hurry up and prepare some good wine and food! Now!"

He looked back at Jiang Ning and Lin Yuzhen. "This way please!"

They nodded and followed Sugita into the inner section of the shrine.

This fellow really knew how to enjoy life. He had decorated his living space very elegantly.

"Oh, so that's what happened," Lin Yuzhen was enlightened after hearing Sugita's explanation. "I nearly thought that he had a son of your age behind my back."

"Haha!" Sugita burst out laughing. "I lost this bet fair and square, so I'm good with calling him Papa.”

The way he looked at Jiang Ning was filled with respect, and he didn't hide any of it.

"I'm not sure why Mr Jiang is in Tokyo this time?"

The last time Jiang Ning came, he made a huge commotion in Tokyo. It was as if an earthquake had hit the city, and even after Jiang Ning left, very few people knew exactly what hit them.

Sugita didn't think that Jiang Ning was here just to bring a woman on holiday.

"I'm here to see you,” said Jiang Ning. "I'm afraid that if I don't come to see you for too long, you might be dead."

"Thank you for your concern. You saved me the last time, so my days after that are already more than the days allocated to me," sighed Sugita as he shook his head. "But I've been very troubled lately. Look at my hair! It's all white!"

He figured that if this situation went on, the internal conflict within the syndicate would worsen and he would eventually have to choose a side. Regardless of which side he chose, a head on conflict was still going to be inevitable.

He really wasn't sure if he would survive this.

Sugita looked at Jiang Ning and didn't think that Jiang Ning was really here to see him either.

They were old friends and he owed Jiang Ning his life, but there were simply too many people who owed Jiang Ning their lives and favors...

"You're here because of that woman from the Salo family, right?" Sugita poured Jiang Ning a cup of sake. "Did I guess it right?"

It was clear that many visitors had arrived in Tokyo recently, especially people from those Third World powers.

Even though they had concealed their identities and snuck into Tokyo through a variety of channels, Sugita was in charge of this place after all, so nothing escaped his eye.

"Mr Jiang, I'm afraid that I can't help you in this matter," Sugita went straight to the point. "If it was anything else, I'd even sacrifice my life for you. But this woman is very important to the Yamaguchi Syndicate, and she's a pawn in the fight between the two factions in the syndicate. I'm not even allowed to go near her."

He didn't hide anything from Jiang Ning, and he wouldn't have anyway.

He was a member of the Yamaguchi Syndicate, but this was just a job to him.

It was worth far less than the gratitude he had towards Jiang Ning.

"So, what if I insist on making life difficult for you?” Jiang Ning picked up the sake and took a sip. "Are you going to help or not?"

Sugita froze and didn't say anything. This belongs to - ©.

He poured Jiang Ning another cup and filled his own cup before raising it with both hands and saying respectfully, "You are really my Papa!"
