The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 6936

“Another color?” Charlie Wade’s words made Dong Ruolin think for a moment, and then she had a realization.

She exclaimed, “Charlie Wade, you’re right! Tawanna has been promoting the blue camp a lot lately, encouraging her fans to vote. I can’t believe she lost after spending so much money. If I were in her position, I’d definitely feel down.”

She sighed, “I just saw her looking unhappy, and I thought maybe the Mitsui family wasn’t paying her performance fee. If there was a conflict over that, maybe everyone would be excited to see her perform today. But then I realized the Mitsui family probably wouldn’t rely on just her for money…”

Xiao Churan couldn’t help but laugh, saying, “Ruolin, you really know how to speak your mind.”

“Hehe,” Dong Ruolin replied with a smile. “Honestly, Churan, while I enjoy Tawanna’s songs and appreciate her talent, I don’t like public figures who mix personal agendas with their work. She often claims to support sexual minorities, and I think it’s great to support them quietly. But she talks about it too much, especially to her young fans who may not fully understand these issues. It’s really irresponsible to share ideas that don’t align with mainstream values with such a young audience.”

When Charlie Wade heard what Dong Ruolin said, he couldn’t help but admire her. “Wow, Ruolin, that was impressive!”

Dong Ruolin smiled back and said, “Don’t think of us as…”

Kelly West stood quietly off to the side, busy texting Fei Kexin about her surprise meeting with Charlie Wade.

Turning to Charlie with a friendly smile, she asked, “What do you think about the current situation in the United States? Are you leaning more towards blue or red?”

Charlie paused for a moment, then replied with a smile, “I can’t say I favor one over the other. I just wish things would return to normal. It feels like a lot of strange things have happened all at once in recent years. Growing up, we were taught there are only two genders. Now, some people in the U.S. are saying there are nearly a hundred. That’s hard for me to accept.”

He continued, “Just yesterday, I watched a women’s championship game where a male player, who identified as gender-fluid, competed. He defeated many female athletes to reach the finals. While a few people might feel their rights are being honored, what about the women who lost? They deserve respect too. Americans often talk about fairness, but it seems they tend to prioritize the needs of a small group over a larger one. It’s confusing at times.”

Just then, Mitsui Yoshitaka finished his opening remarks and looked over at Tawanna, who appeared anxious.

“Now, I would like to invite our star for today, the amazing international superstar, Tawanna Sweet, to come up and say a few words.”

Tawana looked out at the crowd and smiled. “Thank you, everyone, for being here today. It’s great to see so many fans of mine, including my daughter.”

The guests cheered loudly, but much of the excitement was also for Mitsui Yoshitaka, the head of the Mitsui family, who was hosting the party.

When Tawana heard her name called to speak, she felt a bit anxious at first, but she quickly regained her composure. She knew this was part of the event’s plan. After Mitsui Yoshitaka spoke, she would go on stage to say a few words. Usually, these moments were just formalities, but today felt different.

After sharing a quick kiss on the cheek with her boyfriend, Tawana stood up and walked to the small stage. She took the microphone from Mitsui Yoshitaka, pausing for a moment to gather her thoughts.

In the audience, many people had already pulled out their phones to record the moment. Mitsui Yoshitaka noticed and said, “Everyone, remember that this is a private event. Ms. Sweet is a public figure, so please don’t take photos or videos or upload them online. We want to avoid any issues for her.”

As soon as he said that, the audience quickly put their phones away.

But then Tawana surprised everyone by saying, “Thank you, Mr. Mitsui, for your concern. However, I actually want everyone to record what I’m about to say and share it online. It would make me very happy!”

Everyone in the room looked puzzled at her request.

Tawanna spoke passionately, saying, “Have you heard the latest news from across the ocean? I am very upset about it! As a member of the Deep Blue camp, I believe this is a step back for human progress. We have worked hard for the LGBT community and their rights over the years, but now, all that progress is at risk. I hope everyone here will take action to protect the rights of the LGBT community, end discrimination, and ensure they have the same rights as everyone else! Even though we’ve lost four years, I believe we will gain more time in the future—maybe fourteen years, forty years, or even four hundred years!”

The Japanese audience looked at each other in confusion. They had expected Tawanna to come on stage, praise Japan, and express her love for the support from her Japanese fans. While they knew that such praise often felt insincere, it was the usual approach in these situations.

To their surprise, Tawanna delivered a passionate speech that focused solely on LGBT issues without mentioning Japan or its people at all. The Japanese audience, who generally held traditional views, found it hard to understand her sudden shift in topic.

At that moment, Mitsui Yoshitaka stepped in to ease the tension. He said, “I once heard someone say that young people need to stay angry. It’s said that this anger gives them the motivation to move forward and change themselves. Seeing Ms. Tawanna’s passion…”

Sweet is very thoughtful and caring towards certain minority groups, and I’ve been noticing this more and more.

When everyone saw Mitsui Yoshitaka stepping up to help, they all laughed and clapped, which made Tawana feel better.

Just then, Mitsui Yoshitaka’s assistant came up to the stage and whispered something in his ear. Mitsui’s face brightened, and he said excitedly, “Everyone, I have great news! The chairman of the American Fei Group, Miss Fei Kexin, is on her way to our party!”
