At five o'clock in the morning, in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, the top floor of a high-rise building was brightly lit. This is the headquarters of Wandai Toys Manufacturing Company.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Ishigami Yu and Ishigami Hideki (brothers) bowed slightly to the employees below.
"The two executive officers are the ones, take care of yourself"
Regarding the victory in this battle to defend the US stock market, the employees who had not slept a wink all night were filled with joy and relief from the bottom of their hearts.
After all, they are facing the most notorious short seller on Wall Street in the industry, so the pressure can be imagined.
But they won, and they were very beautiful.
This was a shocking reversal under the command of two extremely young managing directors.
Different from the social animal culture of other companies that treat employees as cattle and horses, the Ishigami family's corporate culture is to let love come to every employee.
Working here is a dignified job, and everyone can be proud to say that I work at Wandai.
So no one wants to see their home stolen by robbers.
After sending away the last employee, he disappeared into the office. Ishigami Yu felt as if his bones had been drained, and he slumped in the chair without any image. He was very sleepy now.
Ishigami and his brother have a good relationship. They are not superficial brothers like those from rich families, so they are very casual in private.
"Phew, I'm exhausted."
Yingshu looked at his younger brother who had turned into a salted fish again, and shook his head helplessly. He looked like he was making waves in the stock market just now
"Excellent"
"What does it matter, brother, there are no outsiders here."
"No, I want you to sleep in my office. I have a sofa there where you can lie down and sleep."
"Then you two should go to my office together. There is a folding bed there."
A slightly aged male voice intervened in the conversation between the two brothers
"Dad/Father"
Hearing this voice, Ishigami Yu stood up and walked to his brother.
The majestic man in a black suit who walked in from outside the office with bloodshot eyes was Daisuke Ishigami. The father of these two twins
He patted the brothers on the shoulders and apologized
"Thank you for your hard work, you two. Well done. Go and have a rest. We can talk about anything else after you have rested."
Hideki wanted to say something, but Yu pushed him away while yawning.
"Dad, didn't you say, let's go, let's go, I'm almost exhausted."
Watching them disappear at the end of the corridor, Daisuke Ishigami smiled.
For him, the proudest thing in his life is not developing the company to join the Boxing Club, but cultivating these brothers.
The eldest son has a stable character but does not know how to adapt. The younger son has experienced changes and has matured now. He is smart but lazy and lacks supervision. Their personalities complement each other.
As for the boxing meeting, his face was uncertain. He had a bad feeling that this might be just the beginning, and that man would never let it go.
Yu Ishigami slept in his father's office until the afternoon. The high-intensity precise ordering made him mentally exhausted, but now he is finally feeling better.
Ishigami Yu took out his mobile phone. There were many unread text messages on it. He replied to them one by one and saw the messages from Iino and Xiaobo
He thought for a while, they should be out of school now, so let's just make a video call. The two of them should be together.
Iino, who had not received a reply after school, was on duty when he suddenly felt his phone vibrating. He took it out and saw that it was Ishigami, making a video call.
I was panicked for a moment and quickly asked Xiaobo next to me
"Xiaobo, is my hair messy now?"
"Would you like to wash your face?"
Xiaobo was confused, and Xiaomizi suddenly realized what was going on.
She saw the contact on Iino's phone and understood.
It turns out to be Xiaoyou, he made a video call.
"Xiao Mizi, give me your phone."
The honest Iino handed the phone directly to Xiaobo
Xiaobo took it and pressed the answer button directly, and pointed the camera at Iino
Iino suddenly saw a familiar face appearing on the phone screen and took a breath.
Doesn’t she understand yet? She was cheated by her best friend, she said angrily
"Xiaobo! You"
"Iino, why didn't you wear your favorite hairstyle today?"
Iino's favorite hairstyle on weekdays is to tie a ribbon on the ends of her hair and let it hang naturally on her shoulders.
Today, Iino's hair has not been combed, so it looks a bit messy. She looks a little out of breath, very weak, and she wants to be bullied just by looking at her.
"Don't look!"
Iino directly covered his face with his hands and squatted on the ground.
Xiaobo suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. No matter what he thought, he should cover the camera. That was the easiest. As expected, Xiaomizi was so cute and stupid that he didn't even bother to tease her
Turning the phone over so that the camera faced him, Xiaobo looked at the screen with excitement
"Ishigami-kun, what's wrong with you today? Xiao Mizi and I have sent so many text messages without reply."
Ishigami scratched his head
"I'm sorry, Xiaobo. There was a little accident at home at work, so I was busy all night. I just had some time to look at my phone."
"So that's it, Xiao Mizi, you heard it, right? Ishigami, he didn't mean not to reply to your message."
Although Iino was squatting, her little ears kept standing up to listen, and she breathed a sigh of relief. It was not that she didn't reply to her on purpose.
Xiaobo looked at Xiaomizi's reluctance to see people, and she thought for a while
"Ishigami, listen to me, Xiaoyazi has been unhappy all day today, it seems because... um... um"
Iino became so angry that he directly covered Xiaobo's mouth
"Xiaobo!"
Looking at the two people fighting on the screen, Ishigami smiled slightly and hung up the phone.
He didn't know why just now, but he just wanted to see the two of them on a whim. Now that he saw them, he felt better all of a sudden.
There was a knock on the door
"Yu, are you awake? My father is looking for us."
"Wait for me, brother, I'm coming."
When Ishigami Yu and Hideki Ishigami saw their father again, they found that he had become even more haggard, the ashtray was full of cigarettes, and a lot of white appeared inexplicably on his hair.
Only half a day has passed!
Daisuke Ishigami, who looked extremely haggard at the moment, didn’t know how to feel facing his child
But this man knew he had to tell them
Finally, he sighed helplessly and slowly said those few words
