Chapter 380: I am teaching Naoki-san a lesson!
Since it was adding salt at the end, the cooking process had already entered the final stage.
Although Akina Nakamori was a bit flustered adding water and then using a soup spoon to scoop out all the floating salt grains, the rescue at this time was just locking the stable door after the horse had bolted.
When the head chef evaluated today's dishes at the end, his face was twisted into an emoji by the saltiness, and finally he said painfully, "Akina-chan, did you do it on purpose?"
"Sumimasen!"
Akina Nakamori naturally apologized incessantly, but her expression of being between crying and laughing made the onlookers laugh until they held their stomachs. Overall, the comedic effect of this variety show was full~
Because he ran into someone he knew, Naoki Nagayama thanked Kotaro Sakai for continuing to lead the way and waited with Shuichi Yin Tang until the program shooting ended.
After the producer announced the end of shooting, Akina ran to Naoki Nagayama's side like a little deer.
"Naoki-san, why are you here?"
Her tone was full of surprise, and her black and white eyes were full of joy.
"I came with Yin Tang-san to send the last episode of "Cat's Eye"." Naoki Nagayama introduced Shuichi Yin Tang next to him, "Do you know him, Akina? This is the great director Shuichi Yin Tang."
Then he introduced Akina Nakamori: "Yin Tang-san, this is Akina Nakamori."
"Ah, nice to meet you, please take care of me..." x2. Although they were both in the entertainment industry and had heard each other's names, this was indeed their first time meeting.
After the two greeted each other, Naoki Nagayama continued to ask, "Didn't Akina-chan go back to Kiyose?"
"I was picked up early in the morning~" Akina Nakamori showed a helpless expression on her face, "I was planning to go to the park with my little nephew~"
"Didn't you say there was a break after the concert tour ended?" Even as a top idol, she should have basic human rights.
Akina Nakamori wrinkled her little face: "Akisawa-san said there was a temporary announcement... it's said to be a very popular program..."
Naoki Nagayama glanced at the studio. He vaguely remembered that this cooking program taught by the head chef combined humor and practicality, and it indeed had a pretty good reputation among women.
From this aspect, the decision of the agency couldn't be said to be wrong. However, seeing Akina's aggrieved look, he couldn't stand on the other side!
"Even so, the schedule should be confirmed in advance!" Naoki Nagayama supported Akina without hesitation, which made the little girl feel much better.
"Maybe it was really too sudden~" After the small resentment dissipated, Akina returned to her personality of considering others, helping others find reasons, and then smiled and said,
"But it's not bad, I just happened to meet Naoki-san~"
Seeing Akina's mood improve, Naoki Nagayama also joked: "Haha, yeah, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see Akina-chan's cooking make the head chef cry from saltiness~"
"No way!"
How could it be that salty!
Akina Nakamori angrily patted Naoki Nagayama's arm. If it weren't for Naoki-san's sudden appearance, how could she have been distracted?
And the scene of adding too much salt was actually filmed by the camera, which was simply a lifetime of black history for a cooking expert!
"The head chef's eyes widened!"
"It's all Naoki-san's fault!" Seeing that the culprit dared to laugh at her, Akina continued to attack Naoki Nagayama's arm without being relieved.
"Ah~ it hurts~"
Naoki Nagayama laughed exaggeratedly and grabbed her clenched little fists, only feeling like he had grabbed two cold rice balls, soft and resilient; looking at her round cheeks, a desire to bully her rose in his heart for no reason.
And Akina Nakamori was like being pressed on the pause button, trying to pull out her hands but seemingly without strength. The heat coming from her hands seemed to travel up her arms to her face, leaving a blush.
Feeling Naoki Nagayama's gaze seemingly looking at her, she could only squirm and avoid looking into Naoki Nagayama's eyes, while she pouted as if acting spoiled:
"Naoki-san, let go~"
"That won't do, unless Akina stops bullying me!"
"It's clearly Naoki-san bullying me~"
Shuichi Yin Tang saw Naoki Nagayama and a young female idol fooling around and could only sigh in his heart that the title of "Playboy Naoki" was indeed not groundless.
And at this time, the manager Fusunori Akisawa, who saw his idol pulling and dragging with a man in the studio, walked over quickly and asked:
"Akina-chan, what's wrong?"
Ah, the adult is here... Naoki Nagayama hurriedly let go and smiled: "I let go, Akina-chan can't continue to attack~"
Feeling the warmth on her hands leave, Akina Nakamori actually had a trace of reluctance in her heart, but she naturally returned to her true colors in front of everyone and said fiercely: "Akisawa-san, daijoubu, I am teaching Naoki-san a lesson!"
As expected, she had the demeanor of a big sister.
Fusunori Akisawa saw that there was indeed no problem, and found that the person next to her was Naoki Nagayama, who had been warned by several of Akina's previous managers. The idea of keeping his idol away from him immediately arose in his heart.
"Akina-chan, the shooting is almost over, we can go back."
"Eh? So fast?" She had just seen Naoki-san and wanted to talk more. Akina Nakamori's eyes turned to Naoki Nagayama involuntarily.
"Ah, it's this time. Just smelling the food fragrance in the program, my stomach growled~" Naoki Nagayama didn't want to part so soon: "Is Akina-chan hungry?"
"Hmm hmm~" Akina nodded vigorously.
Originally, for this kind of food program, she would definitely eat the food she made... but this time it was too salty...
"Then let's have lunch together? How about it?" Naoki Nagayama's inquiring gaze swept over Akina, who definitely agreed, and then looked at the manager Fusunori Akisawa.
The manager was naturally unwilling, but the current situation was that his own idol agreed very much...
It was just a meal between acquaintances, and he was still by her side. If he strongly disagreed without any special reason, wouldn't it become unreasonable? And it would make his idol unhappy...
Fusunori Akisawa thought for a while and chose to agree.
"Akina-chan, now the question is, what are we eating for lunch?"
After Naoki Nagayama said that there was a beef rice bowl called "Tsutsui" in Akasaka nearby that was very delicious, the foodie Akina immediately decided to go there for a meal.
Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Yin Tang took one car, followed by Akina Nakamori's car, and headed to Akasaka, which was not too far away.
"Naoki-san, you and Akina Nakamori are very familiar~" Shuichi Yin Tang knew that Naoki Nagayama had provided songs for Akina Nakamori and had been on several variety shows, but now he found that the two were really good friends.
Naoki Nagayama didn't hide it: "Yeah, I knew Akina before she debuted."
"Eh? Wasn't that for the program effect?"
"No, we really knew each other very early." Naoki Nagayama said while driving, "My sister and Akina's sister are also good friends."
"So that's how it is~" Shuichi Yin Tang probably thought the two had a family friendship at this time.
At this time, he suddenly thought of the "Crows Zero" he was going to shoot later: "Naoki-san, speaking of which, that female character in "Crows Zero", the bar singer, seems very suitable for Akina Nakamori? Why don't you invite her to perform?"
"Eh? Ruka Aizawa?"
Naoki Nagayama hadn't thought of this point, but being able to sing and having a rebellious image, Akina was indeed very suitable now,
"Regarding this point, I might have to ask the agency. It seems Akina's current image is swaying between innocence and rebellion. I don't know if they will agree to Akina's performance~"
"Then let's ask while eating~"
Akasaka was not too far from Shiba Park. In less than ten minutes, the two cars arrived at "Tsutsui". Several people passed through the stone platform and the blue stone path among the potted plants and entered this Chinese-Western combined restaurant.
"Naoki-san, smelling the scent makes my stomach drum~"
Akina changed into ordinary clothes and wore a pair of flat-light glasses like Arale. At this time, her nostrils moved slightly, like a greedy little child.
"Right, the signature secret sauce black-haired Wagyu rice bowl of this house is very delicious, you must not miss it!" Naoki Nagayama sat next to Akina and introduced it while pointing at the menu.
"Hmm, must not miss it!" The foodie Akina's eyes were about to shine.
The two were ordering food here, while Fusunori Akisawa and Shuichi Yin Tang started chatting after a brief greeting and drinking water,
"Akisawa-san, I don't know what the future plan of your company for Ms. Akina Nakamori is? Do you have any thoughts on appearing in movies?"
Fusunori Akisawa looked at the well-known director in front of him, seemingly guessing some things, "Does Director Yin Tang ask this?"
"Hai, Tree Friend Film is currently preparing a new movie called "Crows Zero"." Shuichi Yin Tang naturally had nothing to hide, "I think Ms. Akina's image is very suitable for one of the female characters."
""Crows Zero"? Is it a youth campus movie?" Fusunori Akisawa asked. Akina's age was just right.
"Ha, no, it's a movie about delinquent students~" Shuichi Yin Tang explained the general plot with a smile, "In short, it's the passionate youth of a group of delinquent high school students..."
"Delinquent students... this..."
Fusunori Akisawa hesitated. Although Akina's image had a rebellious side, if she really participated in a delinquent movie, the impact on her image would still be a bit big.
Shuichi Yin Tang naturally didn't have the idea of letting the other party agree to perform at the beginning. He smiled at Fusunori Akisawa: "Akisawa-san, I'm just asking. If the agency is interested, it won't be too late for us to talk further~"
This was not something a manager could decide directly. Fusunori Akisawa replied seriously: "Hai, Director Yin Tang, I will explain this matter to President Akira Hanami and Section Chief Akira Terabayashi!"
At this time, Akina Nakamori, who had already ordered food, looked over: "Akisawa-san, what's wrong, what do you want to tell the president?"
"Director Yin Tang just asked if Akina has any thoughts on appearing in a movie." Fusunori Akisawa said, "This matter needs to be carefully considered."
"Eh? Appearing in a movie?" Akina Nakamori looked at Shuichi Yin Tang in surprise, and then turned to Naoki Nagayama, with questions in her big eyes.
"It's a movie called "Crows Zero". There is a bar singer character in it, which is a bit consistent with Akina's current image~" Naoki Nagayama explained, "So I want to ask if Akina wants to try performing."
""Crows Zero"?"
"It's not a youth romance movie, but rather a bit violent, with a lot of delinquent culture..." Naoki Nagayama continued.
Hearing such words, Akina looked at Naoki Nagayama with accusing eyes, and her cheeks puffed up: "Does Naoki-san think I look like a delinquent girl?"
"Hahahaha~ isn't there a saying about Akina big sister?"
Seeing Akina Nakamori's eyes drifting toward his arm, and the hand on the table moving again, Naoki Nagayama felt like surrendering: "Ano... it's not like a delinquent. That girl in the movie is actually very cool and cute~"
Hearing this, Akina calmed down: "Of course cool~"
Actually, she is more cute~
Fusunori Akisawa said from the side: "Whether Akina-chan can perform or not, we still have to listen to the opinions of President Akira Hanami and Section Chief Akira Terabayashi."
"Hmm, understood~"
Several people were chatting about other aspects of the movie, and the signature Wagyu rice bowl of "Tsutsui" was brought up. The rich aroma immediately made the diners' mouths start to lubricate.
Slices of Wagyu beef of appropriate thickness were brushed with special sauce. As the butter slowly melted, after pouring in mirin and stirring, it could be sent into the mouth together with the rice.
In an instant, the heavy taste exploded between the teeth. The tenderness of the Wagyu beef and the rich meat juice, the salty freshness of the sauce and mirin, the oily aroma of the butter, and the distinct texture and rice fragrance of the rice...
It made people unable to stop one bite after another.
"As expected, it's a delicacy that cannot be missed!" The foodie Akina couldn't help but praise in the gap of eating, "It's really delicious!"
"Come here once a month from now on." Naoki Nagayama said.
"Come here once a week!" Akina increased the frequency.
Fusunori Akisawa and Shuichi Yin Tang silently enjoyed the delicious food, looking at the two opposite them, just like parents looking at children who wouldn't grow up~
The cuisine of "Tsutsui" took care of the four people's hungry stomachs properly. After eating, Akina put down her chopsticks and put her hands together to thank them sincerely: "Thank you for the treat~"
Before leaving, Naoki Nagayama asked: "Does Akina-chan have any schedule in the afternoon?"
"Akina has to go back to the agency to discuss the work arrangements for next month~" Fusunori Akisawa immediately spoke up. He couldn't let his idol continue to be with Naoki Nagayama.
"Yes~" Akina was a bit reluctant, but there was no way for work, "What is Naoki-san going to do in the afternoon?"
"Me?" Naoki Nagayama looked at Shuichi Yin Tang, "Yin Tang-san and I are going to the shooting location of the movie to do some graffiti art~"
"? Graffiti?"
"Yeah, I didn't dare to doodle on the school wall when I was in school. Today is the time to make up for the regrets!"
"Sounds very interesting..."
Akina Nakamori's eyes were already full of envy, which made Fusunori Akisawa hurry to pull his idol away. If they stayed a little longer, maybe she would really be seduced away by this guy Naoki Nagayama~
As expected, the seniors' advice to guard against fire, theft, and Naoki was all based on experience!
"Yin Tang-san, let's get ready to go too~" After Akina Nakamori's car left, Naoki Nagayama said to Shuichi Yin Tang, "However, we have to pick someone up first."
"Who?"
Naturally, it was one of the leads, Kaede Nagayama~
Naoki Nagayama remembered that Shuichi Yin Tang had experienced underworld life with Kaede Nagayama before. If they met again in Tokyo this time, it would definitely be very interesting,
"It's someone Yin Tang-san also knows!" ===== CHAPTER 381 =====
