Chapter 746: Favorite
At around one in the morning, Sakai Rie turned on her side, brought her mouth close next to one of Kishimoto Masayoshi’s ears and whispered, “Kishimoto Masayoshi, Kishimoto Masayoshi, who is your favorite woman?”
Kishimoto Masayoshi, who was lying flat on his back with his eyes closed, didn’t have any reaction. He still acted as if he was in the middle of a deep sleep.
Sakai Rie once again whispered into his one ear, “Kishimoto Masayoshi, Kishimoto Masayoshi, who is your favorite woman?”
Seeing that he still didn’t have a single response, she waited for a minute or two and then began to repeat what she had just said twice.
Masayoshi Kishimoto suddenly mumbled up, “Rie, Rie Sakai.”
Sakai Rie smiled and contentedly reclined flat on her back. She closed both of her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
After about another quarter of an hour, Masayoshi Kishimoto estimated that she should have fallen asleep, so he suddenly opened his eyes. In fact, he had never fallen asleep. He thought that she was going to play a trick, but he didn’t expect her to come up with such a trick.
Masayoshi Kishimoto felt that hearing Rie Sakai whispering in his ear like that in the middle of the night was a bit creepy. If she had directly answered that she was her favorite person when she asked herself the first time, it would have made her suspicious.
It was a tactic to ignore her words as she repeated them a second time. He was acting as if her method would really work.
Therefore, when she shouted out those words for the third time, she could not remain silent any longer, so she acted out the words that were as true as the words of a dream.
Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that if he didn’t say her name, he would never pass. If he did inadvertently say a certain name that wasn’t hers, he would be in trouble.
She would definitely wake him up, and then there would be another interrogation, or an overnight arraignment. It would not be easy for him.
With trepidation, Masayoshi Kishimoto closed his eyes again, but did not dare to fall asleep. He himself was afraid that she would do this again in case he woke up in the middle of the night.
He managed to stay up until he woke up at dawn, and really felt a sense of relief. Himself obviously cut through the enthusiasm from her as well.
Masayoshi Kishimoto had eaten breakfast and had the driver of the Maybach at home drop him off at the office. Just as soon as he sat down on top of his president’s throne, he instantly yawned uncontrollably, even as tears flowed out of his eyes.
He wiped away the tears with his own hand, and then closed the door to recuperate, his left and right index fingers were pressing the temples on both sides of his head and gently rubbing them.
Not long after, Yamada Mirai, as always, personally delivered a cup of freshly ground Brazilian coffee to his desk.
When Masayoshi Kishimoto smelled the aroma of the coffee, he opened his eyes and leaned forward to extend his right hand to take the coffee cup in his hand.
He brought it to his mouth not to drink it directly, but to gently blow on it. Feeling that the coffee in the cup was almost warm enough to enter his mouth, he tilted his head slightly and took a sip.
“Yesterday morning, Minister Kazuya Takahashi personally came here to look for you. At that time, you weren’t there.” Yamada Mirai said as she carried out a relevant and necessary report.
“I know.” Masayoshi Kishimoto replied bluntly.
“The Korean side has called, and their President has agreed in principle to entrust the Prime Minister and others to conduct a substantive negotiation with us.” Yamada Mirai told the truth.
“That’s something that I’m aware of as well. Kazuya had already spoken to me about it long ago. I’ve decided to use him as our Hard Gold Group’s representative to negotiate with the Korean side.” Masayoshi Kishimoto spoke bluntly.
“Chairman, you’re no longer going to do it yourself? Besides, I’m afraid that if such a big matter is left to the Legal Affairs Department alone, other people might have a slight opinion. Furthermore, the level isn’t enough.” Yamada Mirai also wanted to participate in it, saying.
“That’s true. Then let’s add you, Inoue Kamiji, Yamaguchi Katsuhei, and Natsume Ryousuke into the mix. Such a team lineup not only shows our utmost sincerity, but also won’t make the Korean side feel that they’re being treated badly.
On the legal side, there is Takahashi Kazuya’s legal department. On the specific business side, we have both Inoue Uji and Yamaguchi Katsuhei.
Natsume Ryosuke’s publicity department is to guide public opinion both inside and outside the country, and can also coordinate with some of the Korean side’s needs. Your main job description is to coordinate all aspects between us and the Korean side.
If one of your internal disagreements of any kind occurs, you’ll also need to give me timely feedback.” Justice Kishimoto made the final decision.
“Understood, I won’t fail your arrangement. Wouldn’t it be a good idea for Inoue Kamiji to withdraw from Seoul, South Korea to Tokyo, Japan?” Yamada Mirai said in a serious manner.
“Inoue Kamiji continues to stay in Seoul, Korea. He should not make his movements too big and obvious. As long as we don’t officially sign a concrete agreement with the Korean side beforehand, everything must be done with caution.”
Justice Kishimoto could not help but keep an extra eye out. He did not fail to think of the Korean side consulting with them on the one hand, and on the other hand going to meet with some other international big banks and consortiums.
There was no excuse for comparing goods. Even if I were in their place, I wouldn’t stick to one tree and give up the whole forest. Whoever offers a better price, then from whom more loans. There was no reason why he himself had made South Korea wary than the fact that he held the chips for shorting in his hands.
“Understood, I will send it in the form of an official official document from the headquarters of the group company in the name of you, Chairman, and send it by fax to the team of Inoue Kamiji who is far away in Seoul, South Korea, to know about it.” Yamada Mirai said seriously.
“Don’t be too stiff on top of the wording, and don’t make it sound like an order. Then again, don’t forget to recognize and encourage their work.” Masayoshi Kishimoto confided.
“Understood.” Yamada Mirai certainly knew that Inuyasha Kamiji was a man of merit. Although the other party had achieved this noteworthy company performance by following the Chairman’s early plan deployment and arrangement, the person who had operated it specifically was not the Chairman himself. Under the current development situation, Inoac was naturally the most sought-after person.
After finishing what he had to say, Masayoshi Kishimoto brought the coffee cup to his mouth again and took another sip. He did not fail to laugh to himself in his mind that there were times when he was more tired of dealing with Rie Sakai than he was of doing his job.
Inside his head, he remembered that one thing that she had gotten him out of in the middle of the night. He had no fear, after all, the woman he loved the most was indeed her.
If Sakai Rie’s method really worked, and while he was asleep, he asked another question about who his second favorite woman was, then he would be instantly exposed.
Of course, in that situation last night, he hadn’t really fallen asleep, so even if he had asked such a question, he would have said that the woman he loved second was still Sakai Rie.
