[Black Basket] Love Sound

"Joke? Mrs. Jinggu is saying that my lack of ability will cause trouble?"

I thought that the old belly snake would immediately refute, but unexpectedly, the person who answered was Sha Ye who was sitting beside her.

"Isn't it? Talking about war on paper and practicing in reality are two different things. You think it's too easy to negotiate a contract!"

Anri Jinggu, who was dazzled by anger, had forgotten the coercion of the old belly snake, and immediately quarreled with Saya.

"Who is the person who loves innocence and fantasies? I think the people here know better than me. Well, if you think the Akashi family has suffered a disadvantage, then I will personally add an additional condition. If I fail to do so within the specified time Once I get the contract, Seijuro and I will terminate it..."

"I won't accept that kind of additional condition!"

Before Saya finished speaking, Akashi, who had been holding back for a long time, finally broke out.Originally, he opposed Saya's acceptance of the task given by her grandfather, but he couldn't change what the elders decided. It wasn't until Saya said the additional condition that his anger was completely ignited.

The other her that Xinguang mentioned may be the one who is completely dominated by reason.Once she encounters something related to the family, she will definitely put the love affair last, and put the family and family business first. This is very similar to him in high school, and his rationality makes people disgusted.

"If you dare to add that additional condition, then I can also make a similar request to your grandfather." Seeing that the two of them will walk into the auditorium hand in hand this year, Akashi will never allow other trivial matters to hinder his plan.In order to prevent Jinggu Anri from intervening in this matter, he turned his gaze to the old belly snake beside Saya, and said, "Grandpa Hashimoto, if you really want Saya to take over that task, then let me have a fight with her." Let's compete to see who can get the contract they want in the shortest time."

"Seijuro, don't make jokes, it's not a game!"

Some things only need to be solved by one person. Saya doesn't want to implicate other innocent people. Now that Akashi is also getting involved, her first reaction is to stop her in a hurry.

"Interesting, kid from the Demon King's family, I want to hear what demands you dare to make."

The old belly snake's reaction was exactly the opposite of his own granddaughter's. Although the future grandson-in-law suddenly intervened in this matter, it would be troublesome, but considering the future of the two of them, he thought this was an excellent opportunity. Problems can be solved.

"If I get the contract one step earlier than Saya, please ask Grandpa Hashimoto to remove Saya as heir."

As soon as Akashi's words came out, everyone was scared stupid again.

Not to mention that some people dared to make such a request to the old belly snake in the past, even the current president of the chamber of commerce dared not speak to him.Coupled with the hint hidden in that sentence, everyone couldn't help but sweat for Akashi, for fear that he would really anger the old belly snake and make things stand still.

"Seijuro, don't make excessive demands on Mr. Hashimoto, you don't have that ability yet."

Akashi Shunji, who sat in the first seat, also reprimanded his son.Although, in his heart, he already believed that his son's ability had exceeded the scope of his original expectations, but years of training and lack of experience slowed down his progress. This farce.

"No, Demon King, I accept your son's request." The old belly snake glanced at Akashi Shunji, telling him not to worry too much, and then said to Akashi: "Young man, I admire your courage and believe in your courage." The ability is enough to carry that heavy burden for Saya. However, it is not something that can be done overnight to remove her heir status, you need to wait patiently."

"As long as you agree, I have plenty of ways to fulfill your long-cherished wish."

"Then I'm looking forward to the results of the competition between the two of you. Don't forget that Saya was trained by me. It's not as easy as you imagined to win against her."

"The one who wins is definitely me."

From lovers to rivals, this is not the result Akashi wants.However, in order to free Saya from the burden of the heir, he had to take this step.Only by doing that, can she grow old hand in hand with him without any worries in the future.

The match agreed upon by the two parties was settled, but Saya, who was standing next to the old belly snake, ignored the conversation between the two and walked towards Jinggu Anri.

At this moment, her own reason is constantly reminding her that she must suppress the anger in her heart.However, the more she suppressed that negative emotion, the more uncomfortable she felt. Obviously she had experienced similar things before, why was it so difficult for her to get through it then?

"You...what do you want to do?"

After finally recovering from the old belly snake's frozen gaze, Jinggu Anri faced the angry Saya again, hey, this little girl doesn't want to beat her up in front of everyone, does she?

"Ms. Jinggu, you owe me an apology."

It's a pity that Anri Jinggu's idea fell through, and even though Saya was controlled by anger, she didn't beat anyone to vent her anger.Rather than venting her anger quickly, she thinks it is more practical to ask the other party to apologize publicly.

"Hmph, I'm telling the truth about the back garden. I know best in my heart whether you have done something wrong. If you really want me to apologize, go find all the witnesses at that time, and maybe I will change. idea."

Knowing that those guests didn't want to be involved in the Akashi family's infighting, Kyotani Anri's words were equivalent to answering Saya.She couldn't get rid of the trumped-up charges of Hongxing cheating, let alone regain her innocence, so she could only eat Huanglian dumbly and accept her fate obediently.

"I understand."

Without making any unnecessary rebuttals, Saya just turned around with a cold face, bowed politely to everyone present, and then walked quickly to the door of the side hall, ready to open the heavy door.

"Saya, where are you going?"

Aware of Saya's abnormal state, Akashi immediately stepped forward and grabbed the doorknob, preventing her from opening the door.

"I'm tired and want to go back to my room and have a rest."

In order to calm down his mind, Saya wanted to leave the side hall and find a place where no one was alone.If she continued to stay in the side hall, sooner or later her sanity would be consumed by anger and she would do something irreversible. Therefore, leaving was the best solution.

"Promise me, don't run around after returning to the room, I will pick you up after the meeting."

Akashi, unable to leave the meeting, could only temporarily use words to appease his lover's anger.He knew that she had been wronged, and felt very uncomfortable, but due to the current development of the situation, he and his father could not turn against Jinggu Anri face to face, at least, he could not startle the enemy until enough evidence was collected.

"Don't worry about me without you, I'm fine."

Saya understands Akashi's difficulties. His current situation is even more troublesome than hers. If he is a little careless, let alone his status as an heir, his life may be threatened.For his sake, and also for the sake of Grandpa's reputation in the business circle, she decided to solve the problem by herself. Perhaps by doing so, the burden on his shoulders would be less.

"Um……"

Reluctantly letting go of his hand on the doorknob, Akashi reluctantly watched his lover leave the side hall.

At this time, he seemed to have an illusion, as if Saya would never come back after leaving the side hall.He wanted to take a step forward and quickly catch up with the disappearing figure, but the rationality in his mind forced him to stay where he was, forcing him to return to the meeting.

In the battle between reason and emotion, in the end reason won out, and he had no choice but to compromise.

In this way, the interim meeting continued. From the internal problems faced by the head office to the reorganization and recruitment of the chamber of commerce, he listened attentively to the explanations of his father and elders, without missing any details.But he didn't expect that after the meeting, the people in the room had long since disappeared, leaving him with only an empty room and the endless chill that the night wind caressed his face.

Where can a person go at night?

As long as you have enough cash in your wallet, there are plenty of options to choose from when it comes to Tokyo nightlife.

Clubs and bars are frequented by young people, while office workers like to go to fine dining restaurants to socialize or meet their best lovers for a good night.In short, as long as there is a place you want to go, the nightlife in Tokyo can definitely meet people's requirements.

Of course, this is just someone else's life. For Hongcun, a maniac who has been working overtime for thousands of years, overtime is a part of nightlife.The heated tea in the supermarket lunch box, and the occasional sip of snacks are his source of energy for overtime work.In fact, colleagues from other departments usually invite him to join the fellowship, but he is always absent, either using other excuses to decline, or staying in the company to work overtime.

As for the reason, I'm afraid even Hongcun himself doesn't know.

So his night life is all spent at work?The answer is naturally no.At least, on the days when he gets off work early, he can go to his favorite bar for a drink alone to relax his tense nerves a little.

Tonight, the overtime battle between the International Department and the Sales Department has come to an end.In addition to enjoying the preferential treatment of leaving get off work early, the victorious staff of the International Department can also receive a personal allowance from the minister, and go to the izakaya to have a big meal together.

In the beginning, Hongcun followed the seniors and ate and drank in the izakaya. Later, he remembered that he still had an appointment with the ice room at night, so he decided to leave early, and went to the appointment with the prepared thank you gift.

Since it was the weekend and it was the peak travel time for night owls, when Hongcun rushed to the bar, a noisy crowd immediately came into view.Especially the foreign guests, the number of them was several times more than usual, if he could not see the busy figure of the ice room, he would have thought that he was dazzled and entered the wrong place.

"Hongcun, this way!"

Among the conversations in various Western languages, Himuro's Japanese is particularly cordial.

Following the instructions of his friend, Hongcun struggled through the frolicking crowd, and found the seat he reserved for tonight in front of the bar.

"Here, thank you for helping me find reference books."

Pushing the gift brought in front of the ice room, Hongcun sat down on the high stool, his eyes began to search the wine rack, thinking about what kind of wine to drink tonight, to reward himself for the hard work of the week.

"Your job in the company is not easy at all. In addition to learning English, you also need to learn other languages. Are you being too harsh on yourself?"

Ice Room handed over the language learning reference books prepared early in the morning to Hongcun, and then he turned around and took a new bottle of wine from the wine rack, and poured a small glass for his friend as a gift in return.

"No way, the job competition is fierce now, and if you don't work hard to improve your ability, you won't be able to stay in your original position."

This is the cruelty of reality. If you stay stagnant, you will only be surpassed by your opponent and lose what originally belonged to you.In the first year of joining the trading company, Hongcun already felt the potential sense of crisis. For this reason, when he was a rookie intern, he had a plan for further study, but due to long-term overtime work, he had no time to read books and study by himself.

"It's a good thing that work is improving. Let's take this opportunity tonight. Let's have a good drink and stay drunk."

Picking up the whiskey bottle at hand, the ice room smiled and filled it for Hongcun.

"Hey, you have a job and you dare to drink alcohol. Why don't you want to drink with me because your girlfriend puts you down tonight?"

Quickly grabbing the wine bottle with his hands, Hongcun stopped the ice room from filling up his glass just in time.Tonight he only intends to have a drink, he doesn't want to get very drunk, the feeling of throwing up is really uncomfortable.

Himuro's answer was to ask Hongcun to look somewhere.

So, the half-believing Hongcun looked in the direction of his line of sight, and suddenly, he was stunned by a familiar figure.

Is it Saya?Why is she here?

Hongcun felt that her question was a bit redundant. This is a bar, and anyone who is an adult can come in. It is not surprising that Saya will appear here.However, something seemed wrong with her, and her friends were even more problematic.Others are chatting, drinking and eating snacks, while her friend is drinking heavily, and so on, one of them is actually the girlfriend of the ice room, this...what the hell is going on?

"Don't worry, that foreign beauty won't get her students drunk, Yaye, I can't guarantee..."

Having been with his girlfriend for many years, Himuro knows her temperament best.No one can stop what she decides to do, but he is an exception.Taking what happened tonight as an example, he thought she was sharing the worries of his friends and acting as a temporary confidant.Unexpectedly, when he went to greet the guests, she would start pouring wine. If this continued, he was really afraid that other people's boyfriends would ask her to blame him.
