After the pleasant greeting, the group of people entered the clubhouse and simply chatted with each other for a while.
Kento's gaze fell on Narumi and Liza as he said, "For the following matters, Miss Liza and Narumi, let's talk inside."
Upon hearing his words, Narumi whispered something into Liza's ears and the two of them followed Kento into a conference room.
Everyone else was rooted in place as they stood outside the room.
In that instant, none of them spoke. They all stared furiously at the people on the other side, and the atmosphere became oppressive and tense.
Eichi's eyes were about to burst out a stream of flames. At this very moment, a man in his thirties opposite him suddenly restrained his anger and laughed. "Eichi, I haven't seen you for a few days, but your family has deteriorated so much. It's ridiculous!"
"Taira, what do you mean?" Upon hearing this, a furious expression flashed across Eichi's face. He glared at Taira, who was also the son of Kento.
Taira's gaze swept over Akira, Kenji, and finally paused on Fade and he said, "You claim that Miss Liza is the legitimate chief of the clan, but you can't even guarantee her safety and asked a foreigner to be her bodyguard. This is just humiliating for the Uchida family!"
Upon hearing this, not only did Eichi's face sink but he had an ugly expression. However, he was somewhat speechless.
Kenji, on the other hand, couldn't stand it anymore. He got up and said, "Taira, Mr. Chen is Miss Liza's guest and her lifesaver. What are you talking about? Back then when Liza was abroad, was it you who planned the assassination?"
"Get lost!" Before Kenji could finish his sentence, Taira's energy suddenly erupted. With a loud shout, the burst of energy pressed against Kenji and Taira said, "I'm talking to Eichi. You're just a servant. Do you have the right to speak? You don't even know about the rules."
"You..." Kenji was furious after hearing his words. They were so close from rushing out and starting a fight.
"Get down now!" Meanwhile, Eichi's angry shout stopped him from doing so. His brother, Akira, also pulled him back, and he shook his head.
Kenji was furious but he had no other choice but
to back down.
Eichi glanced at Taira and uttered angrily, "The Uchida family is in charge of Miss Liza's safety. You don't have to worry about that."
"Really?" Taira grinned and immediately interrupted, "If that's the case then let's not mention Miss Liza. Then what about you Mr. Uchida? Why is your nose bruised? Were you so clumsy as to fall?"
Eichi's expression darkened upon mentioning the bruise on his nose. "You...."
"What, is it inconvenient for you to talk about this? I heard that you were hurt by that foreigner there a few days ago." Taira deliberately mentioned Eichi's bruised nose. "The Young Master of the Hachi Clan is beaten up by a foreigner, and he doesn't have the guts to retaliate. If this is spread out, the Hachi Clan would be a laughingstock."
"How can such a family carry forward the reputation of our Hachi Clan? How can you guys guarantee the development and the future of the Hachi Clan!" Sighing, Taira pulled a long face.
At this very moment, Eichi had a gloomy expression. He was really irritated. He slammed the table and stood up. He glared at Taira, and gritted his teeth, shouting, "Taira, do you want to fight? I can toy with you."
Upon hearing that, Fade glanced at him and then ignored him. Instead, he quietly drank his cup of tea.
Seeing such a situation, Eichi's face was not only pale but he also looked grim.
Taira tried to make the situation worse by saying, "Oh, it seems that I have overestimated Mr. Uchida. It turns out that you can't even command the Chinese bodyguard!"
Upon hearing that, Eichi couldn't help being furious. He directly shouted at Fade, "Fade, I asked you to get up and fight. Didn't you hear what I said?"
Fade put down the teacup and turned his head slightly. He glanced at Eichi and said with a calm and indifferent expression, "I am Liza's friend. I am not one of your subordinates. You are not qualified to command me around."
"You..." Upon hearing this, Eichi's face sank and he couldn't help but burst into a rage. He pointed his finger at Fade, and his eyes lit up. He was eager to tear him apart.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Akira shouted and stood up. "Mr. Eichi, I can deal with Jiro."
As he spoke, he had already walked up to Jiro. The positive energy in his body started to surge.
When Jiro saw this, his face showed a disdainful expression. "Akira, you, you are not my opponent. Admit defeat before it's too late."
"Hmph, you're just spouting nonsense. The fight has not yet begun so it's not certain who is the winner!" Akira gave a cold snort and then took the initiative to attack.
