Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Deciding to Take You as My Adopted Daughter

Ji Wei remained silent, and Yamamoto Yu also said nothing.

The two of them simply stared at each other, the atmosphere in the dimly lit room indescribably eerie.

Finally, after what felt like ages, Yamamoto Yu let out a sigh: "Miss Ji, keep this old man company for a while longer, even if it’s just sitting quietly without talking." Having said that, Yamamoto Yu returned to his chair.

Keep you company, my foot!

Ji Wei almost cursed out loud.

She forced a stiff smile, raising her bound hands to show him: "Mr. Yamamoto, how am I supposed to keep you company properly if you don’t untie me?"

It was only then that Yamamoto Yu seemed to realize; he reached out to turn on the lamp nearby and called to Beichuan, who was guarding the door: "Come in and untie Miss Ji."

Beichuan walked in, untied the ropes on Ji Wei’s hands, and stepped aside, grumbling inwardly: Not even a moment after struggling to catch her, now he’s letting her go? Isn’t that way too quick?

Ji Wei rubbed her wrists, reddened from the rope burns, and frowned in complaint: "Mr. Yamamoto, tying people up at the drop of a hat—your attitude toward people is truly unique!"

Yamamoto Yu chuckled: "My apologies. To make amends to Miss Ji, I’ve decided to do one thing."
