Minamoto Tamako regretted the words as soon as they left her mouth, but it couldn't be helped; Fujiwara Section Chief's words were too unpleasant. Is having a rich family really so impressive? After all, he didn't earn it himself... She knew roughly how much the chief's annual salary was—certainly not enough to afford luxury cars and expensive wines.
Fujiwara Homare was stunned for a moment, thinking this person must have confused his vintage wine with new wine—ignorant bumpkins are like this; talking high-end luxury goods with them is like playing the lute to a cow—they don't understand at all...
He was about to mock her when Princess Nakako suddenly asked, "Are the two of you a couple?"
That's the nature of older women, especially perceptive about the romantic relationships of the younger generation. Even a Japan Imperial Family princess is no different from a village gossip; everyone likes talking about family affairs, just that the princesses are more discreet.
