Chapter 1055: Water broke?! Time to give birth!!
In the morning, the warm breakfast in Mountain Cherry Court was already presented on the dining table, with Japanese-style white rice and pickles, as well as Chinese-style steamed buns and pan-fried dumplings~
The capable Mrs. Nono Mari had long since figured out the preferences of this family.
The hostess, Akina, was more accustomed to Japanese-style dining and also liked Western-style, and would also taste other novel breakfasts with great interest, while Nagayama Naoki was accustomed to Chinese and Japanese-style, and could also accept Western food and others...
So every time she cooked, she could even make breakfasts with different preferences, satisfying the preferences of both people... This was called professional!
It was just that sometimes Akina would secretly snatch food from Nagayama Naoki's plate...
"Vegetarian..."
Akina picked up Nagayama Naoki's steamed bun and took a bite. The vegetable and mushroom-filled steamed bun was clearly not her goal, so she stuffed it into Nagayama Naoki's mouth, and then picked up a pan-fried dumpling. This one was always meat-filled!
"....."
Wasn't it said that Neon people all had a strong sense of distance? How come this wife of his didn't see him as an outsider at all, and even snatched his breakfast... Who gave her the courage?!
Glancing at Akina's belly again... Nagayama Naoki sighed and could only continue chewing the steamed bun in his mouth...
Sigh... endure it!
The morning newspaper published the news that "Tiger of Ginza" had finished editing, and released the last trailer, and reporters all expressed that they were very much looking forward to this movie.
Nagayama Naoki was looking at the report when a small head leaned over again:
"'Tiger of Ginza'..... is about to be released!"
"Mm, released in August... there will be a preview at the beginning of the month..."
"Eh~~~ then I can't go watch it~" The due date was coming soon, and at that time, Akina should be in confinement...
"Daijoubu, I'll bring the original film back for you to watch!"
Nagayama Naoki comforted his wife. Mountain Cherry Court had a private cinema!
"Naoki-san is the best!"
Akina laughed and rubbed against Nagayama Naoki, then continued to enjoy her breakfast... Fortunately, she didn't rub any oil on him~
After a lively breakfast ended, Nagayama Naoki took two trial print versions of "Jurassic Park" from the study and walked down, putting them into his briefcase.
"Naoki-san..... who are these two for?"
Taking advantage of the fact that it wasn't too hot in the morning, Akina was walking in the courtyard, followed by Eitaro... She asked curiously after seeing Nagayama Naoki take the two books.
"Aren't I going to the Honma Architectural Design Office today~" Nagayama Naoki explained, "Honma-san is back from abroad, and Sakata-san has also returned from exploring the uninhabited island in the Seto Inland Sea..."
"For the formal design, I think they should read this book. Maybe it can give them some inspiration... They can't just design it into an ordinary dinosaur park in the end..."
"Haha, that kind of Q-version dinosaur?" Akina said with a smile.
"Although it's also very cute..."
"Then are you still going to the milk tea shop to teach Tsuruko how to make milk tea today?"
"I should still go for a bit..." Nagayama Naoki thought for a moment, "I've already taught Tsuruko everything I know, now it's her turn to teach others... I'll just watch from the side..."
Akina walked to the side of the veranda:
"Is it the people from the gang from the old hometown in Shizuoka that Naoki-san mentioned before?"
"Mm, each one is a fierce strong man..." Nagayama Naoki's mouth curled up, "Thinking of Tsuruko standing with her hands on her hips teaching them how to make milk tea, I want to laugh~"
A small milk tea girl, standing with her hands on her hips and roaring "Baka," making several big men timidly hand-shake lemon tea... Thinking of this scene with a strong contrast, Akina couldn't help but laugh out loud...
"Hahaha~ Tsuruko will definitely be a strict and good teacher, absolutely able to make them make the most delicious milk tea..... Hahaha~"
"Don't make it sound like Tsuruko is a delinquent girl..."
Nagayama Naoki said with a smile,
"Tsuruko is a sweet milk tea sister..."
"Hahaha~"
Both of them were having a great time...
But just when Nagayama Naoki wanted to continue saying something, suddenly a light "pfft" sound came...
It sounded like a bag full of water being punctured...
Akina, who was standing in the courtyard, paused and subconsciously looked down. A small puddle of water fell on the ground of the courtyard, which was being absorbed by the white sand of the dry landscape...
Eitaro seemed to be frightened too and subconsciously barked twice...
She looked up at her husband in a daze, her eyes full of panic and surprise~
"....."
After Nagayama Naoki paused, he immediately realized something, immediately crossed to the veranda and supported Akina, his voice even trembling a bit,
"Akina.... is this.... your water broke?!!"
"Seems like it....."
Akina leaned on Nagayama Naoki's arm, her mind blank for a moment.
And fortunately, Nagayama Naoki still understood, and immediately shouted loudly toward the house:
"Mari-san! Mari-san...... Akina is about to give birth!!!"
"Eh?" Mrs. Nono Mari, who was originally in the kitchen, heard it and also hurriedly ran over, "About to give birth?"
Seeing the appearance in the courtyard, Mrs. Nono Mari immediately understood that the water had already broken... The two young people in the courtyard were looking at her in a daze.
Mrs. Nono Mari jumped off the veranda, reached out to support Akina, and then said to Nagayama Naoki:
"Naoki-san, go notify Afu to take the car..... then take the prepared delivery bag together....."
"Ah, good!"
Nagayama Naoki immediately ran over, let Butler Alfred, who had already heard the call and came out, go drive the car, and he himself took the delivery bag that had been prepared in advance.
It was actually just some information for the pregnant woman and common small items. The obstetrics department of the private hospital was very complete, and things like towels, maternity clothes, and diapers for the pregnant woman after giving birth were all very complete.
When he came down again, Akina had already walked to the front door with the support of Mrs. Nono Mari, and Alfred had already driven the largest Toyota Century to the door.
Nagayama Naoki threw the delivery bag into the front row, then opened the door, supported Akina to sit in the back row, and just wanted to sit back in the passenger seat and let the experienced Mrs. Nono Mari sit in the back row with Akina, when he was pulled by the arm by Akina...
"Naoki-san, sit beside me...."
"......." Nagayama Naoki looked at Mrs. Nono Mari, and she also said there was nothing wrong on the road, so she could sit in the front, so he nodded, "Alright....."
After sitting in the back row, Akina's hand was tightly holding Nagayama Naoki, trembling slightly...
Although there had been a long preparation, suddenly having to give birth still made the twenty-year-old girl a bit worried and scared.
Let alone her, even Nagayama Naoki had the experience of two lifetimes, but he hadn't tried giving birth, so his heart was also very nervous!
Fortunately, preparations had already been made in advance...
The car drove steadily onto the highway... weaving through the traffic...
"Akina.... does it hurt now?" Nagayama Naoki asked beside her.
Akina shook her head. It didn't hurt at all now, and even the contractions hadn't started yet... Her pale face was mainly because she was scared...
Mrs. Nono Mari in the front row heard it and turned around to comfort her:
"Water breaking generally leads to birth within twelve hours....... No need to worry now, maybe it will start after arriving at the hospital...."
"Hai, arigato...."
After getting the answer, the car fell into silence for a while...
Glancing out the car window, it was the morning peak... many cars were lined up in long queues... Nagayama Naoki regretted a bit; if he had lived in the obstetrics center earlier, it would have been better...
Turning his head, he happened to see Akina's somewhat at-a-loss eyes...
Nagayama Naoki immediately forced himself to calm down. He couldn't panic at this time!
"Akina..... do we need to call and notify your mother?"
This naturally referred to Akina's mother, Chieko...
"Eh?" Akina paused, "Right..."
The car phone of the Toyota Century was installed in the back row. Nagayama Naoki opened the cover of the armrest in the middle of the back seat of the Toyota Century, picked up the car phone that looked like a satellite phone but had a wire, and dialed the number of Akina's old home.
"Beep~ beep~ beep~"
"Moshi moshi.... this is the Nakamori residence...."
"Mother-in-law..... it's me, Nagayama Naoki!" Perhaps because of nervousness, Nagayama Naoki's words were a bit stiff, like the old-fashioned, rigid lines on TV dramas.
"Ah..... it's Naoki...." Nakamori Chieko said with a smile, "Why are you speaking so strangely...."
"Mother-in-law..... cough cough, Chieko-san, Akina's water broke!" Nagayama Naoki said directly, "We are rushing to the hospital....."
"Eh?" Nakamori Chieko was also stunned for a moment.
Nagayama Naoki saw Akina pat him, so he hurriedly handed the phone over...
"Oka-san...... I'm about to give birth to the baby...."
Perhaps it was because she heard her mother's voice, Akina's nervous mood eased a lot, and then he saw her talking about the current situation on the phone, nodding from time to time, as if Nakamori Chieko was giving her some advice.
A few minutes later, Akina handed the phone back.
"Chieko-san...."
"Naoki...." The voice on the receiver was Nakamori Chieko's, "Don't be nervous, it's very normal for a woman to give birth to a child....."
"I'm not nervous......"
"Haha, in short, I'm setting off for Tokyo now.... let's meet at Tokyo Women's Medical University..... before that, please take good care of Akina...."
"Hai, sorry to trouble Chieko-san...."
"Akina is my daughter!"
After hanging up the phone, the emotions of the two young people in the back eased a bit.
Nagayama Naoki patted Akina's arm and then started the remaining steps.
First, he had to call the director of the obstetrics and gynecology hospital affiliated with Tokyo Women's Medical University, Ogasawara Hiroto, who had promised to give Akina the best medical conditions.
Then, he had to call his old home to notify his father and mother that Akina was about to give birth... No matter what, they would always rush over to take a look.
He also had to call Aritomo Yoshimura and Yin Tangxiu at the Tree Friend building to inform them of this news and explain that he wouldn't be coming to the company during this time...
Afterward, they also had to cancel the appointment with the Honma Architectural Design Office...
Fortunately, Nagayama Naoki had already adapted to the era of memorizing phone numbers and kept the common numbers in his heart. If it were the future, without WeChat and an address book, he might not even be able to contact anyone.
Finally, he had to accompany Akina to the hospital to prepare to welcome the arrival of the newborn.
In the office on the top floor of the Tree Friend building, Aritomo Yoshimura hung up the phone, his face a bit happy, a bit excited, and a bit complicated...
Just at this time, Fujiwara Kazuhisa knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Aritomo Yoshimura's somewhat strange expression, he was a bit curious:
"Aritomo-san, what's wrong? Your face has a very strange expression...."
"Naoki-san's wife is about to give birth!" Aritomo Yoshimura said to Fujiwara Kazuhisa, "She went to the hospital this morning."
"Naoki-san is going to have a baby!"
Fujiwara Kazuhisa laughed,
"This is a good thing! Young people having more children, society can get better and better!"
"Yeah...."
Aritomo Yoshimura was a bit emotional. He remembered the first time he met Nagayama Naoki, when he was clearly just a big boy himself!
He didn't expect that five or six years had passed in a flash, and he was about to become a father!
Fujiwara Kazuhisa looked at Aritomo Yoshimura's changing face and couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"Haha, Aritomo-san, the expression on your face right now, if one didn't know, they would think you were the one having a child!"
"......"
Aritomo Yoshimura paused, looked at his old friend, and scolded with a laugh,
"Baka! I'm already at such an old age!"
"Old men of seventy or eighty can also have children!" Fujiwara Kazuhisa laughed and put the contestant data of "Voice of Neon" on Aritomo Yoshimura's desk, "Aritomo-san is still capable!"
"Get out!"
"Haha~" After making a joke, Fujiwara Kazuhisa talked about the business, "Aritomo-san, these contestants have been contacted, and they will come to record next week. About their accommodation..."
"Just book a hotel~"
Aritomo Yoshimura decided directly. Tree Friend was not short of this bit of money at all,
"Choose a high-end one, for the contestants and their families together... treat it as a benefit of the program."
"Okay, I know!"
Waiting for Aritomo Yoshimura to hurriedly scan the contestant data and sign the process sheet, Fujiwara Kazuhisa planned to bid farewell and leave.
However, at this time, Aritomo Yoshimura suddenly said:
"By the way, Fujiwara-san... Naoki-san shouldn't have time to come to the company during this time. This program 'Voice of Neon' will have to rely on you to support it~"
"Hai, I will do my best!"
"Arigato~"
Seeing Fujiwara Kazuhisa close the door and walk out, Aritomo Yoshimura was dazed for a moment, and suddenly remembered to call home, asking his wife, Yoshiyuki Aritomo, to prepare a gift for the birth of the child...
Then he stood up and walked toward Yin Tangxiu's office next door...
Because time was tight, Nagayama Naoki only called Aritomo Yoshimura and asked him to share the good news with Yin Tangxiu.
"Ha, I really am Naoki-san's first choice friend! Even this kind of news he called me first!"
Thinking of this, Aritomo Yoshimura suddenly became happy...
Before long, Yin Tangxiu also knew the news that Nagayama Naoki's child was about to be born...
This kind of news naturally didn't need to be kept secret, and then the other employees of the Tree Friend building also knew...
The employees of the Tree Friend Group, who were closely related to the entertainment industry, knew, so the well-informed media naturally heard the news and began to mobilize, wanting to seize this explosive point.
If someone could capture the image of the Nagayama couple going to the hospital, or their figures in the hospital, or the traces of friends and relatives visiting, there were big red envelopes waiting!
As for really shooting the child's face and publishing it...
That should be forgotten. This kind of behavior was a pure malicious offense, exposing the child's privacy, which was not allowed by either morality or law.
The Tree Friend Group was so strong in the entertainment industry, maybe they would launch an industry ban... The shooter and reporter would both get into lawsuits and stay in prison~
And if Nagayama Naoki held a grudge, maybe even personal safety would be in danger...
Did you think that the Nagayama Group was disbanded and couldn't command people or swing knives?!
At that time, people might even applaud and cheer; this was what a father protecting his child should do!
The entertainment industry hadn't had this feeling of wind and rain coming for a long time~
In the old house in Shizuoka, Nagayama Nanako received the call and hurriedly called her husband at the izakaya, and began to pack up.
After packing the snacks and toys originally intended for the eldest grandson, Nagayama Yaso, she came to the home of the eldest brother, Nagayama Aoki.
"Oka-san, why did you come over so early?"
Nagayama Xiangjia, who was taking care of children at home during the summer vacation, was a bit strange. Usually, she came over at noon to cook together.
"Naoki's child is about to be born...." Nagayama Nanako patted the head of Yaso who leaned over, "We are preparing to go to Tokyo this afternoon...."
"Naoki's child?!" Nagayama Xiangjia was surprised, "Today? Isn't the due date still a few days away?"
"Mm, they said Akina's water broke this morning... but it's about the same as the due date...."
Nagayama Nanako explained, "Akina is also very young and in good health, there shouldn't be any problems...."
"So that's how it is...." Nagayama Xiangjia laughed, "Oka-san, you are going to have a granddaughter!"
"Haha, that's right..... both children have descendants now....."
At this time, Nagayama Yaso, who was eating snacks, interrupted:
"Another granddaughter? Is Mom going to have a baby again?"
"No, it's your Uncle Naoki's wife, who is about to have a baby..... it's a girl."
"Am I going to have a younger sister?"
"Cousin~"
"Oh...... then should I give this spring roll to her to eat?" Nagayama Yaso asked, holding the spring roll he had taken a bite of.
"Haha..... she might not be able to eat it..... she's too small when she's just born" Nagayama Nanako laughed and touched Nagayama Yaso's hair, "But thank you anyway, Yaso..... eat it yourself."
"Oh~"
Nagayama Xiangjia continued to ask:
"Is Oka-san with Otosan this time?"
"Mm, Grandpa always has to see his grandson....."
"Then how long are you staying?"
"Two or three days..... depends on the situation....."
Nagayama Nanako knew that her second son was very rich and had said before that he had hired a professional nanny, so she shouldn't need to go help take care of the child.
Every close friend and relative who had a close relationship with Nagayama Naoki and Akina knew the news that his child was about to be born, and whether they were coming to visit or sending gifts, they all began to take action.
The milk tea shop in Ikebukuro had been open for more than an hour.
Near noon, Tsuruko taught the method of making Yangzhi Ganlu again. These big, burly guys were really blockheads and couldn't learn it no matter what!
It was really annoying...
Tsuruko complained to her best friend about this kind of mental fatigue...
If Nii-chan came to teach, would it be better...
"Chotto matte, why hasn't Nii-chan come over today?"
"Did he sleep in?!"
"When he comes over, I must teach him a lesson. How can he not be punctual!"
