When the cherry blossom season just arrived, Akamatsu Haruko's hometown in Kyoto sent a letter to Tokyo, calling the young lady in Tokyo to go back and enjoy the cherry blossoms.
The complacency of Kyoto people is that if you have not seen the cherry blossoms in Kyoto, you have not enjoyed the cherry blossoms this year.
In mid-April, Akamatsu Haruko took a vacation and went back to enjoy cherry blossoms. When she returned to Kyoto this time, she also invited Kamai Sachiko to accompany her.
Sachiko Kamaike comes from an ordinary family. When she was young, when she mentioned cherry blossom viewing, she just grabbed a cherry blossom tree in the park near her home and spread out a tablecloth under the tree for a picnic. She was a little timid about such a solemn cherry blossom viewing ceremony for a famous family in Kyoto. Akamatsu
Haruko sent her an invitation, which made her uneasy.
But in the end, the invitation came from Haruko Akamatsu.
After telling her hometown that she would take her friends back to enjoy the cherry blossoms, the two women went to order kimonos together. Akamatsu Haruko, the eldest lady of Kyoto, wore a kimono made by Tokyoites for the first time in her life.
After returning from Kyoto's cherry blossom viewing, Kamaike Sachiko told Iwahashi Shinichi that she had tried to compose a piece of music.
Iwahashi Shinichi accepted the audition tape she sent and heard that she went to Kyoto with Akamatsu Haruko. Instead of being busy listening to the song, he first chatted with her about this trip to Kyoto.
He joked and said, "I just met Haruko at an NTV production meeting, but I never heard her say anything about it."
Kamaike Sachiko was very relaxed in front of Iwahashi Shinichi, and replied somewhat naughtily: "Haruko is better at keeping secrets than me."
Iwahashi Shinichi asked her: "How do you feel about this trip to Kyoto?"
Kamachi Sachiko pursed her lips and replied honestly: "I never knew that cherry blossoms should be appreciated like this."
Shinichi Iwahashi laughed at her words. He thought to himself that the people in Kyoto were already very difficult to deal with, and the rules of the famous families in Kyoto were even more troublesome.
The fact that Akamatsu Haruko works in the entertainment industry is enough for her family. Now she is bringing friends from Tokyo home to enjoy the cherry blossoms, and she is still wearing a kimono that was casually made in Tokyo. In the eyes of the family, she is probably deviant.
.
"However, there seems to be nothing wrong with being more solemn." Sachiko Kamaike told her thoughts to Shinichi Iwahashi, "When it comes to cherry blossoms, I can see them everywhere from home to the recording studio every day. The scenery that can be seen everywhere is like
It has become normal, and I seem to have lost the sensitivity I should have for the cherry blossoms in bloom."
"This time I went to Kyoto to enjoy cherry blossoms, and I seem to understand why Kyoto people value this matter so much..." In Kamaike Sachiko's observation, it is precisely because of the disappearance of tradition that Kyoto people who claim to be orthodox will become more and more
Holding a shelf.
She went to Kyoto, but when she came back, she did not criticize the people of Kyoto, but showed her understanding. Kamaike Sachiko really has a heart of gold.
While the two were chatting, an intercom call came in. The clerk said that Ayumi Hamasaki was here.
Iwahashi Shinichi frowned. During this week, whenever there were no scheduled training courses, Hamasaki would come to the company after school.
Kamachi Sachiko saw him put down the phone and was about to leave: "Iwahashi-san..."
Iwahashi Shinichi told her, "After I listen to the demo tape, I will give you feedback on what I think after listening to it." He thought for a while, "Have you ever given it to everyone in the band to listen to?"
Sachiko Kamaiike looked at Shinichi Iwahashi, a little embarrassed: "Haruko has heard it. Because it was a song that came to mind after going to cherry blossom viewing, so I took it as a return gift for Haruko's invitation to me to enjoy cherry blossom viewing."
Iwahashi Shin nodded, "I see."
…
After school, Ayumi Hamasaki, a member of the home club, came to Shinichi Iwahashi's company again.
She looked up how to transfer from school to GENZO. The first time she did this, the feeling reminded her of the first time she came to Tokyo to find Shinichi Iwahashi.
But now when she comes to the building where GENZO is located, the front desk lady greets her very cordially when she finds her.
"Ayu-chan~"
Whenever he saw the lady at the front desk, Hamasaki realized that this moment was different from what he remembered. She said, "I'm here to see Iwahashi-san."
When going to Shinichi Iwahashi's office, Hamasaki met a woman head-on. She was an outstanding beauty. Hamasaki couldn't help but be attracted to her, and then remembered that she was San, the lead singer of ZARD.
She is even more beautiful in real life than she looks on TV. Before Hamasaki bowed her head to Sachiko Kamaiike, the beauty smiled at her and said politely: "Hello."
Her footsteps actually only paused for that moment, and the two of them soon passed each other.
But in Hamasaki's heart, a beautiful shadow seemed to be cast. She knocked on the door of Shinichi Iwahashi's office. As soon as she saw Shinichi Iwahashi, the feelings she had when she met Sachiko Kamaike disappeared. She looked lively and said, "Iwahashi
Bridge Sang.”
Shinichi Iwahashi asked her: "Didn't Ayu join any clubs at school?"
Ayumi Hamasaki answered the question: "When I was in elementary school, I participated in the track and field club."
This ability to mess around is quite interesting.
Hamasaki immediately changed the subject and asked him: "Will you go home early today too?"
Iwahashi Shinichi asked her: "Why do you think so?"
"Do you want me to come to the company to find you and then go back by myself?" Hamasaki repeated his old trick.
Iwahashi Shinichi was helpless, "That happened last time."
"So, I can only listen to you once." When Hamasaki said this, her heart beat a little faster. She knew in her heart that she was rude, but she couldn't control the thought of causing him trouble.
Iwahashi Shinichi sighed and said to her: "Now, I'm going to meet the people from Sony Records." Looking at Hamasaki's slightly pursed lips, he bargained with her: "But it won't be long. You are in the record company
Wait for me at the cafe, okay?"
"Then you have to hurry up!" Hamasaki Ayumi didn't know if he was aware of his exaggeration.
Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Ayumi Hamasaki followed him and got into the car going to Sony. At this time, she remembered and said to Shinichi Iwahashi: "Just now, I met Kamaichi-san from ZARD."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Iwahashi Shinichi flipped through the document in his hand without looking up, "Really?"
"She is a beauty that makes people blush," said Ayumi Hamasaki.
Shinichi Iwahashi laughed at her, "This way of speaking makes you look like Oji-san."
"But the real Ogi-san can't say that, right?"
"It makes sense."...will be regarded as a pervert.
Ayumi Hamasaki looked at Shinichi Iwahashi and never left the document in his hand, and consciously closed his mouth. When they arrived in front of Sony's building, Shinichi Iwahashi entrusted Ayumi Hamasaki to the clerk and walked away.
Hamasaki had nothing to say to Iwahashi Shinichi's clerk, who seemed to have no intention of talking to her. After a while, even the clerk walked away. Hamasaki waited alone, absent-mindedly, but with the cake
It was delicious.
Finally, the clerk came back, and with him came Shinichi Iwahashi.
Ayumi Hamasaki was about to say something when Shinichi Iwahashi spoke first. He said, "I'm going back earlier than expected today."
That’s because I’m urging you…
Such an idea came to Hamasaki's mind, but before she could take the credit, she heard Iwahashi Shinichi say to her: "There is still time. Before going home, let's buy cakes for Akina-san and Xiaoguang."
He looked at Hamasaki Ayumi and teased: "You didn't have all you could eat cake just now, did you?"
Hamasaki's face suddenly turned red as if he had been teased.
…
At the end of April, the nights were getting later and later. Even so, it was already dark when I returned home at this time. On the way back, Iwahashi Shinichi casually looked at the scenery outside the car window.
At this time of year, there is only the last shabby tail of the cherry blossom season in Tokyo. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Iwahashi Shinichi goes out from home every day and goes to various places in Tokyo without taking the cherry blossoms seriously.
Although he, as the decision-maker of the record company, would advise singers to compose cherry blossom-themed songs, considering the cycle of single releases, when he proposes this, it is often still a cold season and snowflakes may fall at any time.
At this time, Shinichi Iwahashi remembered again that he was a crooked nut who had not developed the habit of cherry blossom viewing. In the Meguro district where the couple lived now, there was a holy place for cherry blossom viewing. But this spring, he had never visited it.
There.
Today, after hearing Sachiko Kamaiike talk about going to Kyoto to enjoy the cherry blossoms, Shinichi Iwahashi suddenly realized that he noticed the cherry blossoms that he usually didn't pay attention to.
On the way back, Hamasaki was unexpectedly quiet.
It was obvious that Shinichi Iwahashi no longer focused on his work, but she did not take the initiative to talk to him. When Shinichi Iwahashi looked out the car window, she also turned her head and looked to the other side.
After returning home, Akina Nakamori came to greet her at the entrance. Iwahashi Shin handed over the cake, "The cake is from your favorite store. I was lucky today, I bought it at once."
Akina Nakamori took it, like a child who got a gift. She smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work~ Welcome back."
Hamasaki stood a little behind Shinichi Iwahashi, watching the interaction between him and Akina-san. Only then did Akina Nakamori move her eyes away from Shinichi Iwahashi and fell on her, "Ayu, welcome back."
Hamasaki Ayumi felt that she had not been noticed by Akina-san until now, and she was a little envious of the relationship between the president-san and Akina-san. She had never seen such love, and her mother Akiko, who was good at love, had never experienced such love.
She greeted Nakamori Akina slowly: "I'm back, Akina-san."
Iwahashi Shinichi told Nakamori Akina, "Today I was defeated by Ayu, so I have to go home early."
"You said it yourself." Hamasaki retorted.
Shinichi Iwahashi seemed to have caught on to Ayumi Hamasaki's restless personality, so he deliberately teased her like this. Akina Nakamori knew her husband's temper very well. However, when she thought that it was because of this reason, she suddenly
His face darkened.
"Xiaoguang said that he would take Kenta for a walk first..."
Nakamori Akina took her husband's coat and tie, turned around and walked inside. Iwahashi Shinichi's laughter reached her ears, "I wonder what Xiaoguang will bring back from her walk today."
"Whatever you bring back is also a gift." Akina Nakamori said.
