After that, Kyoko left the table without saying a word and went straight upstairs. She did not come back at all.
Seeing this, Zhangsan felt a little helpless. He could only apologize to Rozen and then left the table. He went back upstairs and seemed to be going to persuade her.
The servants also became trembling because of the conversation just now. After the master and the madam left the table, with the permission of Koichiro and Yasna, they quickly left the hall and went to the kitchen to prepare the New Year's dinner.
In the living room, only Rozen, Yasna, and Koichiro were left.
"Sigh …"
Koichiro let out a sigh.
"Now, you probably won't be able to reconcile with my mother anymore."
Koichiro said this helplessly.
Yasna also looked at Rozen with a worried face.
"Mom doesn't like it when people go against her, especially when it comes to big things. Even Dad often listens to Mom. If you refute Mom like this and embarrass her, Mom will definitely not be nice to you in the future."
The siblings of the Jiecheng family were worried about this.
On the contrary, Rozen, who had clearly slapped his mother-in-law in the face and made her unable to step down, looked relaxed.
"Should I obediently listen to your mother's arrangements and hand over the rest of my life?" Rozen shrugged and said, "Sorry, I don't want my life to become so restricted in the future."
Although the path Kyoko mentioned could be achieved easily by Rozen with his ability. Whether it was education or grades, Rozen was impeccably perfect. Even if he entered society, with Rozen's brain, he could easily stand above thousands of people. This was not difficult for Rozen, even if he did not use the mysterious ability. However, Rozen could not stand Kyoko's attitude of helping others arrange their lives as if it was a matter of course.
"Maybe in her opinion, the path she chose for us is undoubtedly the best and the best in the future, but there is no our own will in it, let alone our own interests and hobbies. I'm sure that as long as we agree to her, we will even have to use our spare time to study in the future. We will never be able to play games again, let alone leisure entertainment. That kind of life may not be wrong, but unfortunately, it is not suitable for me."
Rozen said bluntly.
"But the future my mother described is indeed the most desirable for you. As long as you do it, then you can live a carefree life in the future."
Koichiro said on behalf of his mother.
But …
"A carefree life?" Rozen looked deeply at Koichiro and said, "Then, Brother Koichiro, let me ask you, are you carefree now?"
This sentence made Koichiro speechless on the spot.
He was carefree?
How could that be possible?
If he was carefree, then Koichiro did not need to buy a game helmet, let alone SAO's game software. He could just continue to fight for the future Kyoko described. Why would he need to play games?
It was because the current life was too serious and boring that Koichiro wanted to play games.
Again …
"Uncle Zhangsan and Auntie Kyoko are now undoubtedly successful people. They are also above thousands of people, but are they carefree?"
Rozen asked another question, leaving the brother and sister of the Yuecheng family unable to answer.
After all, how could they be carefree?
Even now, Zhangsan was often worried about the cooperation with foreign companies, and because of the incident with Nobuyuki Xu, he was often absent-minded. Kyoko seemed to be full of dignity, but in fact, she had been working hard to deal with the people of the Yuecheng family. Every year, she had to compete with her relatives in her hometown under pressure, just to suppress others, not to be looked down upon by others, and not to be outdone by the rest of the family.
Successful people like them still couldn't get rid of their worries in the end. Under the pressure of external factors, they had to tighten their nerves and take every step cautiously like walking on a tightrope. Otherwise, everything they had might leave them at any time.
In this way, it was impossible to be carefree.
"So, if you have a good condition, a high status, and money, you don't need to worry about the problems of daily necessities anymore. Then, you can be considered carefree."
Rozen said slowly.
"Rich people have their own worries, and those in high positions also have their own responsibilities and pressure. If you really want to completely get rid of your worries, you have to stop fighting, not be arrogant, not be tempted by material things, and not be bewitched by power. That is true transcendence."
At this moment, the state of mind that Rozen had used a hundred years to raise to the supreme realm was revealed without a doubt.
"The so-called society is actually just some people struggling at the bottom, some struggling at the top, some struggling in pain, and some struggling in happiness.
"The people at the bottom are working hard to climb up, and the people at the top are working hard to maintain their status. In the end, they are all fighting with their lives on the line. The only difference is that one has yet to succeed, and the other has yet to fail.
"Since that is the case, why not be like me and earn money as much as I can. I guarantee that I don't lack anything, and I don't want anything else, allowing others to rob me. That is the best way."
Rozen drank his black tea as he smiled at Koichiro and Yasna.
Looking at Rozen like this, Yasna was stunned for a while, and then she smiled. Koichiro was also silent for a while, and then he laughed bitterly.
"You're right, brother. Perhaps it's best for us to live like you." Koichiro patted Rozen's shoulder and sighed. "If only I had met you earlier."
Obviously, Koichiro was very envious of Rozen.
As for Yasna, needless to say, the life described by Rozen was the best for her.
She didn't need to worry about material problems, and she didn't need to pretend to be courteous with others. She could live a quiet and happy life with a harmonious family. That was what Yasna wanted the most.
Perhaps, Yasna's life was indeed full of twists and turns, but because of this, this girl actually yearned for a more ordinary life.
This was also the reason why Rozen had always avoided showing his mysteriousness in front of Yasna.
Yasna was only suitable for an ordinary life. Even if she really encountered any difficulties, this girl would definitely pick up a thin sword, fight strongly, and support her beloved unconditionally. But she was definitely not like this because she liked them.
In this regard, Yasna and Matthew were actually a bit similar. Both of them didn't like to fight, but if they really had to fight, they would definitely hide the fear and weakness in their hearts, stand strong at the forefront, and protect the most important person to them.
Rozen understood this, so he wanted to let Yasna live an ordinary life.
"Sorry, in the end, I still had a little conflict with your mother."
Rozen held Yasna's hand.
"No, I should be the one thanking you for helping me say what's on my mind."
Yasna shook her head and held Rozen's hand tightly.
The two of them looked at each other, their eyes full of warmth and tenderness.
"Ahem …" Koichiro coughed and said with a straight face, "I say, I'm still here. Don't pretend that I don't exist and just show off your love, okay?"
"Haha …" Rozen and Yasna suddenly laughed.
The heavy atmosphere was swept away and no longer existed.
