Tokyo Bubble Life

In front of Qinglai's old house, a blue Porsche had stopped at the door at some point.

Occasionally, passers-by would cast envious eyes over, because they all knew that the big star of the Nakamori family had returned home to see his mother again.
Inside the house, Akina Nakamori was sitting next to her mother Chieko, resting her head on her mother's shoulder and acting coquettishly.

"You're going to be a mother soon, why are you still acting like a child!" Chieko poked Akina's forehead with her index finger, pushed her head away, and then stood up. "Since you've decided to get married, you have to prepare some things in advance!"

"What is it?" Akina Nakamori asked curiously.

"Of course it's the wedding dress." Chieko dragged out a box from the closet. After opening it, there were two exquisite kimono belts and matching kimono materials inside. "Our family is not rich, and we don't have any heirlooms or anything like that, but at least we need to prepare wedding dresses. These are for you and Minghui."

Chieko took out a dark blue Ukiyoe-e belt with a crane pattern and pulled it out for Akina to see:

"I thought you guys weren't in a hurry to get married, so I only made the obi. I didn't expect you guys to be in such a hurry. I need to hurry up with the kimono~"

“It’s so beautiful~”

Akina Nakamori was so happy that she unfolded the belt, looked at it again and again, and touched the material prepared by her mother.

In traditional Japanese weddings, the bride usually prepares three sets of kimonos. One set is a white wedding dress, which represents a pure and flawless marriage. Another set is a luxurious and bright kimono for the wedding banquet, which represents auspiciousness and joy. The other set is a dark-toned dignified kimono, which represents the harmonious daily life in the future.
These three sets of kimonos can naturally be purchased from a store that specializes in making high-end kimonos. After all, not every couple can make their own clothes and make them look good.

But the last set is not too gorgeous, it represents ordinary life after marriage. It is prepared by the woman, and many of them are kimonos passed down from generation to generation.

"At three months, it shouldn't affect your figure, how come you got pregnant so early?"

Chieko is a mother of six children, so she is very familiar with this matter. She looked at her daughter with a little helplessness. She was pregnant before marriage, which made the wedding that was originally carefully prepared become a little rushed.
Fortunately, the man didn't mind. According to Akina, the Nagayama family wasn't a traditional family. After all, it seemed that Naoki Naoki's brother also got married because he was pregnant.
"What an accident~"

Akina Nakamori has nothing to be ashamed of towards her mother, and even has a playful attitude.

"Oga-san, as for the wedding location, since Naoki-san has a family temple, we have decided to go to Shizuoka. We will get married at a hotel near Shizuoka."

"Well, that's as it should be~"

Since her husband's family has this tradition of a woman obeying her husband, Chieko didn't say much, and this was something the couple had already agreed on.

After talking about marriage for a long time, Chieko suddenly remembered something:
"Akina, you still have to talk to your father in person about your marriage."

"."

It was at this time that Akina Nakamori remembered her father and was a little speechless.
"After all, he is your father. When Naoki-san comes to propose marriage, we still need to go through this process~"

Chieko sighed. She and Akio Nakamori had actually been separated for a long time, and their relationship was only nominally one of husband and wife.

However, there is no way to avoid this issue when it comes to their children's weddings. After all, do they have to find someone else to hold Akina's arm during the wedding ceremony? !

"Father..." Akina Nakamori didn't have a falling out with her father after all, and she still maintained her politeness. "What is he doing recently?"

"He's busy selling the butcher shop in Saitama recently. He wants to open a ramen shop in the shop you bought~" Chieko said sarcastically, "Anyway, he seems to be very busy recently."

"Is this so"

Akina Nakamori nodded. After she bought the three-story shop, she no longer cared about it and completely handed it over to Akio Nakamori and Akieho.

"I'm going to call my father now."

"Well, stay for dinner tonight~" Chieko said, "Come and help me with some kimono styles in the afternoon, and notify those relatives."

"Hi~"

Accompanied by her mother Chieko, Akina Nakamori called her father and told him in a proper manner that she was going to get married.

Maybe because he had just bought the land for him to use, Nakamori Akio was very kind to Nakamori Akina now. When he heard the news of the marriage, he naturally gave his blessing very seriously and said that he would definitely send Akina off like he did to his previous daughters.
Although he is not a perfect father, he does not create obstacles in his children's life events.
Yoshimura Otomo is an invisible big mouth, and Nagayama Naoki knows this.

After he told the news to Yoshimura Otomo, he knew that the entertainment industry would receive the news soon.

There is no way, it is impossible to hide it, and the two of them did not want to hide it. The entertainment industry is a big sieve. It is just the Yanyin side, maybe someone who knows the inside story has leaked it out at the wine table~
And the subsequent sending of invitations, naturalization, and even various wedding preparations will make the news of their marriage spread everywhere.
What Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori have to keep secret is actually only their own itinerary and their precautions against paparazzi.
However, what Naoki Nagayama didn't expect was that when he left in the afternoon, everyone in the Shuyou Building seemed to know that he was going to get married.
Every employee I met on the way out gave me a smile full of blessings. Some even said, "Congratulations, Naoki-san." The little sister Suzuki Yuka standing at the front desk had a sad expression as if "my idol is getting married, but I'm not the bride."
"Everyone should know it by tomorrow."

Shaking his head, Naoki Nagayama drove towards the KTV headquarters in Sumida District. The blessing ceremony for "Hayato" will begin tomorrow, so his grandfather will come to Tokyo tonight. Naturally, he will come to see the money-making machine of the Nagayama Group.
Brother Feng is responsible for entertaining grandfather, and Nagayama Naoki will naturally go to accompany him. Of course, they will also talk about marriage this time.

My grandfather, who had already relieved himself of the heavy responsibility of being a team leader, naturally did not bring a large group of younger brothers to Tokyo this time. He only had two close subordinates, so naturally he did not attract the attention of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

When Naoki Nagayama arrived at the KTV headquarters in Sumida District, it looked normal, with no one in black suits standing guard.

When I walked into the president's office at the headquarters, I saw my grandfather, Hayato Nagayama, inside, and my cousin, Kaede Nagayama, pointing at a map and talking excitedly about something.
"Grandfather, Brother Feng~"

"Naoki is coming!"

My grandfather smiled warmly, his hair was all white and he even looked a little hunched. He had completely lost his former domineering look, but he was still in good spirits.

"Well, Grandfather, you have worked hard all the way." Naoyama Naoki walked over to the two of them, "What are you talking about, Brother Feng? Why are you so happy?"

Nagayama Feng smiled and said:

“I’m telling my grandfather about how many branches we have now!”

He pointed to the neon map on the wall:
"At present, our KTVs are available in almost every larger city in Hokkaido, Kanto, Kinki, Shikoku, and Kyushu. We have more than one branch in places like Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka."

Naoki Nagayama also looked over, and sure enough, the map of Neon was covered with dense red dots. In recent years, Naoki Nagayama had not paid much attention to the development of KTV, but it seemed to be very rapid.

"It's really full of neon!" Naoki Nagayama praised, "Brother Feng is really good at it!"

Even if you have an idea, the problems encountered by opening a store in a local area are not the same. All kinds of local tyrants can be annoying.

"Because according to what you mentioned before, Naoki, we adopted the franchise model, so that more and more KTVs are named after us Melody," Nagayama Feng said with a smile, "so the pressure is much less."

“That’s also very troublesome~”

Seeing his two grandsons praising each other, Nagayama Hayato felt more and more comfortable. He looked at Nagayama Naoki in particular. This was the core element for the rise of the Nagayama family!

"Well, KTV is indeed very popular. Feng did a great job on this point." Nagayama Hayato praised his eldest grandson, and then said to Nagayama Naoki, "Naoki is also very good. The Tokyo International Film Festival is also very lively!"

“Thanks to everyone for your support~”

Naoki Nagayama smiled modestly and asked his grandfather,

"Grandfather, where are you staying in Tokyo this time?"

"I've already booked a hot spring hotel~" said Hayato Nagayama.

"Why are you in a hotel? Brother Feng and I both have a house."

"Because I brought a few people with me~" Nagayama Hayato said with a smile, "Even if your house is big, it will be troublesome to accommodate them, so it's better to stay in the hotel and soak in the hot springs."

"That's it"

Naoki Nagayama didn't insist on anything anymore, after all, he still had Akina at home, and it seemed that Kaede was living with Ishida Shinkai now.
After chatting for a while in Yongshan Feng's office, seeing that it was getting late, we decided to go to a nearby restaurant for dinner and then go to the KTV under its name to experience it.

There are many traditional Japanese restaurants in Sumida District. In fact, the old man didn’t have much pursuit for food, so he just found one at random. The three generations of grandparents and the three younger brothers who came with their grandfather had dinner together.

After a few glasses of sake, we chatted about tomorrow's blessing ceremony over food.

"That witch Murata is very powerful, right?" Nagayama Hayato is quite traditional and attaches great importance to the witch's magical powers.

"Hey, anyway, the movies that Shuyou has blessed are basically big sellers!" Naoki Nagayama testified, "The lowest box office is around 500 million."

"That's good~"

Hayato Nagayama definitely hopes that "Hayato: The New World", which is based on his experience, will become a big hit. This is almost the only biography he can leave behind!

Yongshan Feng was also comforting his grandfather: "Grandfather, don't worry, I have also seen Granny Murata, she is indeed very powerful, and her apprentice is also very powerful."

"Mmmmm~"

"After the blessing, we have to shoot a scene, right?"

"Hey, it's just a show, to show that the filming has started and grandpa can come and watch it." Naoki Nagayama nodded, "You can also go and check the scenery to see if there are any elements that don't fit the era."

"Well, I'll take a good look at it."

Nagayama Hayato raised his glass.

"Naoki, you've worked really hard this time!"

"No, no, making movies is my job~" Naoki Nagayama said modestly.

"Hahaha, same thing~ Come on, have a drink!"

"Okay~"

After three rounds of drinks, when he was slightly tipsy, Naoki Nagayama started talking about his own story.

"Grandfather, I have something to tell you~"

"what?"

"I'm getting married!"

"Oh," Grandfather didn't react for a moment, and when he understood, he was surprised and asked, "When? With whom? Ah, it was Akina Nakamori on TV, right?"

"Hi!" Naoki Nagayama nodded, "It's her~"

"Well, it's time!" Nagayama Hayato thought for a moment and didn't say much. After all, when he was young, it was the custom to get married in his teens. "When will it be decided? I'll talk to the monks at the family temple and ask them to get ready!"

“A preliminary decision will be made at the end of November”

"So soon?" Yongshan Feng interrupted subconsciously, "Only more than a month left?!"

Naoki Nagayama explained with a smile: "Because of an accident, Akina is pregnant and has been pregnant for almost two months."

"As expected."

Nagayama Feng opened his eyes wide and was about to make a joke, but then he realized his grandfather was there, so he immediately shut up.

Although Nagayama Hayato came from the old times, as a Yakuza, he did not follow traditional ethics. When he heard that his grandson's fiancée was pregnant before marriage, he just smiled:
"Haha, Naoki, your father and mother are like this too, and Aoki is also from your family. Is it a tradition to get married after having a baby?"

"???"

His father is like this too? Naoki Nagayama was surprised. He thought that his father was so dull that he would only hold hands after marriage!
"Nothing, it's nice to have children after marriage~"

Nagayama Hayato drank another glass of wine and looked very happy. After all, the fourth generation of the Nagayama family only had one person, Nagayama Yagusa, and the number of people was too small.

Akina Nakamori is a good daughter-in-law who helps to expand the family!
"I will talk to the monks in the temple later and find the best day in late November."

"Hi, Arigato~"

At this time, Nagayama Feng also teased maliciously:

"In that case, whether it will become a tradition of getting married with a baby depends on whether Hezi will do the same."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Naoki Naoyama said righteously,

"If that guy from Jintian Dalu dares to do this, watch out for his legs!"

"Tsk~" This is like the officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps!

During the subsequent dinner, Naoki Nagayama also discussed with his grandfather the security issues surrounding his wedding. After all, he and Akina Nakamori were both celebrities and would definitely attract a lot of media attention, but the two did not want to be disturbed.

"Stupid tape!" Nagayama Hayato patted his chest, "When the time comes, I'll have the Nagayama team's brothers surround the ancestral temple! I guarantee that no one will get in!"

"Thank you, Grandfather."

Naoki Nagayama thanked,
"Brothers who have contributed, I will give them a big red envelope!"

"It doesn't need to be too much, just a little bit of happiness will do!"

Nagayama Hayato didn't say no either. After all, this was a happy occasion. Although he could order the people in Nagayama's group, it would be best to make everyone feel comfortable on that day.
