Iwahashi Shinichi mentioned Hamasaki Ayumi again, and Nakamori Akina searched in her memory. The first thing that came to mind was her own ridicule. "That kid who likes you."
She couldn't help but smile at her first association.
At this time, on the other end of the phone, Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "This kid is in Tokyo again."
"Did she also go to see you this time?" Akina Nakamori asked.
Shinichi Iwahashi did not answer directly, "Do you want to come and meet her? Ayu has not fallen in love with her after so long, and she is still your loyal fan."
Nakamori Akina guessed that Hamasaki Ayumi was beside him and asked him: "Have you decided where to meet?" She responded to Iwahashi Shinichi's joke with a smile, "Akina, I am the same. After so long, I still want to meet him.
Meet her."
In Iwahashi Shinichi's description, she was a stubborn and individual girl.
Akina Nakamori imagined that Ayumi Hamasaki went to Shinichi Iwahashi with all her energy, just to tell him that she became an actress. Although she had never met her, she had a three-dimensional and vivid impression of her in her heart.
.Of course, there is also curiosity.
On the phone, Iwahashi Shinichi discussed the next arrangements with her. Nakamori Akina didn't need to ask, he told her naturally, "Xiaoguang, please ask her what she wants to eat."
Nakamori Akina readily agreed, hung up the phone, handed the phone to the assistant, put her hands to her mouth, and called to Utada Hikaru, "Little~Hikaru~"
Utada Hikari walked over slowly, "What~?"
Looking at it this way, I don’t know who is more childish.
Nakamori Akina told her, "Iwahashi-san has guests over there, and we are invited to have dinner with him." She gently pressed Utada Hikaru's shoulder and described to her, "He is a very cute child."
Utada Hikaru noticed that Akina Nakamori seemed to be in a good mood and showed an interested expression, "Is she a girl?"
Nakamori Akina smiled and replied: "That's right."
So, in the evening, the couple came to meet each other with a child.
…
Shinichi Iwahashi and Ayumi Hamasaki arrived first. While waiting, Ayumi Hamasaki looked restless. But in this way, he became more like a child.
When the countdown to the meeting with Nakamori Akina began, Hamasaki suddenly began to feel nervous.
With the dream of singing for this president Sang, and with all the energy, when I rushed towards Tokyo, I had no time to distract myself from other emotions, only full of fighting spirit. Now, the idol I have always longed for will appear in my heart.
In front of him, the long-lost tension finally revived.
This is different from the unshakable stubbornness that Iwahashi Shinichi had when he came to see him, but the uneasiness of waiting anxiously for his sweetheart.
Ayumi Hamasaki was uneasy, and Shinichi Iwahashi noticed it and simply put her aside. He ordered whiskey first and sipped it slowly.
As a result, Hamasaki couldn't hold back and started talking about it first.
"Were you and Akina-san dating when you first met me?"
Iwahashi Shinichi glanced at her, "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"
Hamasaki muttered in a low voice: "You are really good at disguising."
Iwahashi Shinichi was amused by her words. He responded to the sarcasm from the girl, "I didn't lie to you."
"That's what I said..."
Who would have thought that when he said he liked Akina-san, he liked her, which was not the same thing. Ayumi Hamasaki felt frustrated by Shinichi Iwahashi and was a little unconvinced. He wanted to get back in the game, but he didn't know how to act.
I had no choice but to remain silent and fight him with silence.
Just when she was secretly having trouble, Akina Nakamori arrived.
When the door of the box opened, Hamasaki heard in his heart the "squeaking" sound when the curtains were opened in the early morning.
The morning light hit her face, causing her to squint her eyes slightly.
Nakamori Akina leaned forward a little naughtily, "I've been waiting for a long time~"
Her soft voice is completely different from when she sings and when she is on stage.
When she came to meet guests after work, Nakamori Akina only put on makeup, as if she were bare-faced. She was dressed loosely and looked quite casual. But even so, her whole person still exuded charm from the inside out.
Her mother, Akiko, was good at dressing herself up, and Ayumi Hamasaki had seen many dazzling women at work. However, at this moment when she saw Akina Nakamori, she was so relaxed and casual, but the girl Ayumi Hamasaki deeply felt that she belonged to an older woman.
Feminine charm.
She looked at Akina Nakamori and couldn't help but show a shy expression.
Shinichi Iwahashi greeted his wife, "You came just in time, Ayu is having trouble with me."
Ayumi Hamasaki couldn't help but stood up from her seat and denied verbally: "That's not the case." She did something rude, and her face suddenly became hot. But the more she acted like this, she straightened her back, showing her unwillingness to do so.
The stubbornness to give in.
Nakamori Akina glanced at her husband who was fanning the flames and couldn't understand why he would say such things. She did not follow Iwahashi Shinichi's words, but looked at Hamasaki Ayumi, smiled, and greeted her: "Hello."
Hamasaki looked at Nakamori Akina's gentle smiling face, but felt that his hands and feet were numb, and he didn't know how to advance or retreat. He responded to her stiffly: "This is the first time we meet, I am Hamasaki Ayumi."
In her heart, she felt that she was too fragile, and she was so rude when facing her idol. However, facing Akina Nakamori, she had both a girl's yearning for an idol, and a bit of a girl's frustration when facing an older woman. This is
It made her tremble because of this imbalance.
"Ayumi-chan, is it okay to call you this?" Akina Nakamori discussed with her.
Ayumi Hamasaki came back to his senses and said to her: "If you want, just call me Ayu."
"Okay, Ayu~" Akina Nakamori followed suit.
When his nickname was called out by Akina-san, whom he yearned for in his heart, Hamasaki couldn't help but hold his breath and looked shy.
Utada Hikaru, who came with Nakamori Akina, silently observed the guests Iwahashi Shinichi was going to entertain tonight. He was as young as a middle school student, as beautiful as a doll, and looked fashionable and bright.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In addition, he is also a person who is good at making troubles, but he doesn't know what to do when he meets idols.
Utada Hikaru believed what Iwahashi Shinichi said at the beginning, "Ayu is having trouble with me." This did not come from her trust in Iwahashi Shinichi, but from her silent observation of Hamasaki since she entered the house.
When a girl fell into the whirlpool, another girl was watching everything in her eyes.
Shinichi Iwahashi introduced another girl to Ayumi Hamasaki, "This is the Hikari I told you about before."
When Hamasaki turned his attention to another child present, he saw her giving him a sly smile and said: "My name is Utada Hikaru, and I live in Iwahashi-san's house now."
Hamasaki was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and responded: "My name is Hamasaki, and I come to Tokyo from Fukuoka..."
For some reason, facing this child, she couldn't tell that she came to Tokyo to sing for Shinichi Iwahashi.
The first time he met Iwahashi Shinichi, he was probably Utada Hikaru's age. With this thought in his mind, Hamasaki no longer looked at Utada Hikaru, but turned his attention to Nakamori Akina.
When she was in the same room with these three people, Hamasaki felt that her eyes could only be on Nakamori Akina.
…
It was the first time for the couple to have dinner with a girl and a child.
Previously, when they had never met, when she heard Iwahashi Shinichi talk about Hamasaki Ayumi, Nakamori Akina had a vague affection for this girl. Now, seeing such a beautiful girl, she couldn't help but fall in love with her.
Nakamori Akina wanted to take care of this little guest who came all the way from Fukuoka, and chatted with her: "Ayu, are you coming to Tokyo for work this time?"
She had good intentions, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she asked a question that Hamasaki couldn't answer.
Iwahashi Shinichi answered for Hamasaki nonchalantly, "Ayu will come to Tokyo to work soon."
"Really?" Akina Nakamori showed an interested expression and asked Hamasaki, "I heard from Iwahashi-san that Ayu aims to become an actress. Are you going to have formal activities as an actress next?"
She once again asked Hamasaki a question she didn't know how to answer.
Although Nakamori Akina didn't know anything about it, she could still be said to be the one who didn't open the pot. Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help laughing. Nakamori Akina glanced at her husband, who had been watching the fun from the beginning, and reminded him:
"Iwahashi-san~"
"Yes~" Iwahashi Shinichi, who couldn't answer "I know", jokingly accepted his wife's warning.
The two of them did not act like adults in front of the children.
Ayumi Hamasaki watched the interaction between the two. Although Akina Nakamori was an older woman and the idol she had longed for for many years, her gestures, speech and behavior were still full of youth and childishness.
No matter what way or under what circumstances, she finally met her idol.
After meeting Akina Nakamori and having dinner with her, being so close to her, Hamasaki felt even more incredible about the stage.
Akina-san is a bit naughty and childish. When she is with her husband, she will occasionally give non-aggressive warnings to the president-san, and she is also kind and considerate towards her children...
No matter which side of her we see in life, it is difficult to associate it with her image on stage.
A thought flashed through Hamasaki's mind. Is standing on the stage also a kind of performance? The only difference is that acting is to play another person, while singing on the stage is to play oneself.
She came back to her senses and found that Nakamori Akina was still looking at her. Hamasaki was stunned for a moment, realizing that Nakamori Akina was waiting for her answer. Facing her idol, Hamasaki couldn't be as straightforward as she was with Iwahashi Shinichi.
to express one's true thoughts.
She replied: "My goal... is to become someone like Akina-san."
"Really?" Nakamori Akina laughed.
She looked at the girl tenderly with smiling eyes, "Thank you, I'm so happy you said that."
Under her gaze, Hamasaki couldn't help but feel his cheeks warm, and he didn't dare to look up at her.
