"Why don't you go to court? That Gu Meimen lawyer abandoned you and your mother, right? Don't you want to see him get retribution?
Don’t worry, I won’t let you appear in court for nothing, I will give you an appearance fee, how about one hundred thousand yen?”
Rumiko Yasunaga felt that one hundred thousand yen was a lot for a child, and it only meant showing up and saying a few words, and the child didn't need to do anything.
Xiao Ai's face turned even colder when she heard this. When she saw this woman before, her attitude and words made her a little disgusted.
Lawyer Miki saw that the situation was not good and quickly interrupted: "This is not a question of money."
"That's...how do you want to go to court? I'll buy you a nice little dress? Beautiful jewelry?" Rumiko Yasunaga asked eagerly.
Xiao Ai couldn't help but jump at the corners of her eyes after hearing this. Why do these people always want to buy beautiful little dresses for themselves? And they are all cute styles for children!
That's enough!
Mingmei wiped the mouth of Grace Aihara, whose face was full of food, and then looked at her sister with a smile. She could guess how depressed Xiao Ai was now.
"No need." Xiao Ai said coldly, "It's easy for me to appear in court. I just need to confirm that you really love your daughter."
"Love! Of course I love you! I've broken my heart for her, but she just doesn't understand and always does things that give me a headache!" Rumiko Yasunaga replied quickly, feeling very excited.
Just as Xiao Ai was about to speak, Grace Aihara, who was eating next to her with bulging cheeks, said vaguely first:
"You are so fake. You don't have any acting talent at first glance."
Rumiko Yasunaga was startled. These words hit her hard. She had also walked this road back then, but she was not famous at all.
Since then, becoming a star has become her obsession, so she instilled her dream in her daughter, hoping that her daughter would realize it on her behalf.
"I..." Rumiko Anaga grabbed Xiao Ai's hand, "I really love Mei, really, you believe me, I can't lose my daughter!"
Xiao Ai looked at her and said slowly: "Before you came, I was understanding the details with Lawyer Miki. According to him, the reason why you think Mei Yi wants to leave you is that you don't allow her to spend money casually, and
Prevent her from dating others?"
"Yes, that's it! That kid used to swipe her card randomly and buy a bunch of luxury goods. It would be fine if she really liked it, but after she bought it, she threw it aside without touching it at all. She was just buying to vent her anger.
want!"
Rumiko Yasunaga complained, "There is also the matter of dating. She is only 12 years old and is dating a 30-year-old stylist! Are you saying that? As her mother, shouldn't I be in charge?"
"Why do you think she did this?" Xiao Ai looked at her sharply.
Rumiko Yasunaga was a little stunned by Xiao Ai's eyes. She felt that she was not facing a child, but a judge who was judging her own crimes.
"It's just a child's willfulness..."
When she said this, she seemed a little unsure, but it was not because she told a lie, but because she was simply overwhelmed by Xiao Ai's aura.
"Is it just a child's willfulness?" A mocking smile appeared on Xiao Ai's face.
Rumiko Yasunaga's heart skipped a beat, and she grasped Xiao Ai's hand tightly, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.
"I admit that I usually lack concern for her, but there is nothing I can do about it. The entertainment industry is unlike other places, and there are too many people who cannot be offended.
I have a lot of social activities every day and have a lot of things to deal with, so it is inevitable that I will neglect her feelings.
But I swear! I will pay more attention to Mei Yi in the future. She is my daughter and was born in my tenth month of pregnancy. How could I not love her?"
Xiao Ai looked at the pleading look on her face, unmoved, and picked up a piece of information from the tatami behind her.
"Do you usually bring men home and play all kinds of tricks in front of her? Sometimes there is even more than one man?"
"Where did that information come from?" Rumiko Yasunaga was a little angry for a moment, but she immediately softened her tone and coaxed Xiao Ai, "Don't believe those hearsay rumors. I actually pay attention to it..."
Ishou in the corner shrank his neck. He was just following Miss Ai's instructions and getting some information.
"Yes or no?" Xiao Ai looked at Rumiko Yasunaga expressionlessly.
Rumiko Yasunaga once again felt that something was not right about the child in front of her. This cold look seemed to be oppressive in nature, which made her a little scared.
"……have."
Somehow, she told the truth.
Xiao Ai was noncommittal and continued to ask: "Since Yayi was seven months old, you have been taking her to engage in performing arts activities, is that right?"
"...Yes." Rumiko Yasunaga replied bravely, and then hurriedly added.
"But there wasn't any hard work at the time. I just let her play with toys and take photos. Isn't that how the baby product commercials on TV are shot?"
"You usually hang out in high-end places, spend money like water, and often entertain yourself until late at night, leaving Mei Yi at home alone, is that true?"
"...It happens occasionally."
"The money you spent was all earned by Yai from her acting activities, is that right?"
Rumiko Yasunaga had to explain this issue, "This is earned by the entire firm. Just because it is Mei's personal firm, we cannot ignore the efforts of all staff, right?"
If you are affiliated with a big association, the money will also be distributed. So, as the president, it is not surprising that I will receive corresponding remuneration, right?"
"Have you never spent the money that belongs to Yayi?" Xiao Ai stared at her with burning eyes.
Rumiko Yasunaga shrank her neck and did not dare to say a word, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"She is 12 years old this year, but you have never sent her to school, is that right?"
"I have hired a special tutor..."
"But, she has no peers to be friends with, and you forbid her to go out and make friends, right?"
"She is a star, and her every move attracts attention. If she makes friends with evil intentions..." Rumiko Yasunaga's voice became smaller and smaller under Xiao Ai's gaze.
"Yes or no?" Xiao Ai Xi asked again with words like gold.
"……yes."
"Have you ever physically punished Mei Yi?"
"No! Absolutely not! I have always given her good food and drink, and I have never beaten her, really!
If you don’t believe me, I will go home and get the physical examination report. Every year I accompany her for physical examination, and she is very healthy!
If there are traces of beatings on the body, the doctor will also find it, right?" Rumiko Yasunaga raised her hands and said as if she was swearing.
Xiao Ai looked at her without blinking, and it could be seen that she was telling the truth.
"This is probably not the first time Meiyi has resisted your control. How did you get her to continue to work obediently before?"
Rumiko Yasunaga opened her mouth but did not speak. Instead, she stretched out her hand and lifted up her sleeves.
Xiao Ai looked at the inside of her wrist, and there were several scars on it...
