Chapter 665: Everyone likes cute girls full of sunshine!!

~15 min read 2,898 words

A hangover in summer is very uncomfortable. The smell of alcohol mixed with sweat made Naoki Nagayama, who got up in the morning, a bit unable to stand it.

Originally, according to his drinking capacity, drinking with a mere Genta Nakai, wasn't that easy? He wouldn't even have a hint of drunkenness...

But he didn't expect that Genta Nakai, after mixing with people in the investment circle, not only saw his drinking capacity rise rapidly, but also played tricks when drinking!

Genta Nakai actually took Naoki Nagayama to the club he frequented, and then asked the familiar Mama-san to help pour the wine...

Those young ladies in the store, seeing a handsome young man like Naoki Nagayama, had eyes that shone, and one by one they took turns wanting to drink with him...

If it weren't for Naoki Nagayama being really self-disciplined, maybe the place he woke up this morning would be on someone's bed~~~

"Woof woof woof!"

Eitaro was as usual wanting to call his master to get up, but just as he was about to pounce on the bed, his nose wrinkled, and he retreated disappointedly.

"Huh?" Naoki Nagayama laughed at the dog whose tail was wagging but whose body was retreating. "You dog actually dislikes me?"

"Woof!" The thick tail wagged again, but he retreated further away~

Naoki Nagayama suddenly had a playful mood and jumped up, wanting to catch this dog. But the reaction speed of four feet is faster than two feet. Eitaro ran out of the bedroom instantly~

Naoki Nagayama, who had already sobered up, felt the overnight alcohol smell permeating his body and hurriedly ran to the washroom... Ten minutes later, a refreshed and energetic handsome young man walked down from upstairs.

Eitaro came up at this time, turning around his thighs, wanting to play with his master~

"Go away, go away, you licking dog!" Naoki Nagayama pushed the dog aside with his foot and started preparing breakfast. "Just now you ignored me, now I am someone you can't climb high to~"

As the fragrance in the kitchen spread, Eitaro's tail wagged more and more happily.

The morning sunlight in summer was already considered scorching, making the originally azure sky a bit brighter, and it seemed that even the white clouds were more transparent.

Tokyo in the sunlight woke up early. The noisy, bustling crowd is the oxygen for the city's breathing, the toot-toot car horns are the blood vessels of the city's activities, and the factories and office buildings that start to operate one by one are the city's organs of various sizes... Tokyo, this city, seems to have a biological clock, starting its life on time every day.

Naoki Nagayama sat on the eaves corridor, stretching his legs out of the edge of the wooden floor, eating the sandwich he made while swinging his legs like a child, feeling the coolness of the breeze on his skin.

"What was I going to do today?" Naoki Nagayama planned his itinerary. "Ah, it seems like the *Music Station* program on TV Asahi is having a rehearsal~ The third episode, I still have to go take a look~"

Silently planning today's itinerary, then pushing the dog head that was leaning over to the side,

"What else was there? It seems like there's nothing to do in the morning... might as well go see everyone in the studio!"

Since he had already made a decision, Naoki Nagayama didn't rush, but enjoyed breakfast slowly, occasionally teasing the dog that wanted to lean over and the orange cat walking and stretching beside him.

It wasn't until after 9 o'clock that he went out driving the Toyota Century...

The convertible seemed to be parked at a parking spot in front of some club. No wonder big bosses bring their own drivers when they go out to drink; otherwise, having to drive and park himself is really too troublesome~

When driving, occasionally looking to both sides, there was actually a large advertisement poster for *Love is Like After the Rain* on the roadside, which made Naoki Nagayama realize that Shuichi Itō's movie had been released for several days.

"How is the box office of *Love is Like After the Rain*... forgot to ask..." For a movie he didn't direct himself, Naoki Nagayama didn't have an urgent mood. "Well~ I'll ask when Shuichi-san comes back~"

However, seeing many people stopping to look at the large poster, the attraction of this movie shouldn't be bad.

Familiar studio, unfamiliar young front desk little sister.

"Naoki-san... good morning!" Yukika Suzuki's round face showed a smile, greeting Naoki Nagayama a bit awkwardly.

"Yukika-chan, morning!" Naoki Nagayama looked at this young girl full of youthful vitality and said with a smile, "If you smile so beautifully, you should smile more~ People who see it in the morning will be energetic all day~"

"...... Hai!!" The arc of Yukika Suzuki's mouth went up another level.

"Hua-chan, morning~" Naoki Nagayama saw Xing Jiahua walking over and greeted her, then walked toward the office.

"Morning... it's already morning~"

Xing Jiahua answered subconsciously and then complained, but the boss who walked past quickly definitely didn't hear it. Then she saw the newly recruited Yukika Suzuki looking at Naoki Nagayama's back with a "fan girl" look...

"Slap," Xing Jiahua gave a hand knife and patted Yukika Suzuki on the forehead: "Don't look anymore! Naoki-san won't date you!"

"Ouch..." The little girl held her head and looked at her senior with an unconvinced gaze. "But... Naoki-san just said I smile beautifully!"

"Hmph, so what!" Xing Jiahua tapped Yukika Suzuki on the forehead. "In the year or more since I came, I don't know how many times Naoki-san has praised me for dressing well, putting on beautiful makeup, and having a slimmer figure..."

"But! But this scumbag has never thought about asking for my phone number, nor has he revealed once that he wants to ask someone out!"

Xing Jiahua became more and more angry as she spoke. "Flirting and leaving, what kind of person is this!"

"Really?!" Yukika Suzuki's eyes widened. "Hua-chan isn't lying to me, right?!"

"What's there to lie about? Naoki-san, this guy, at most says some witty words, but actually he is very honest!" Xing Jiahua sighed, looking at her junior. "He is not someone you can get! Work hard, and then find an honest person to marry..."

"But..." Yukika Suzuki's face was a bit red. "Such a decent handsome guy, who is also pleasing to others, isn't he hard to find in the world?!"

"......."

Xing Jiahua shook her head. Forget it, it will take a year or a half for this little girl to react.

Naoki Nagayama is really harmful!

"Otomo-san, morning~~~"

Naoki Nagayama greeted easily after pushing the door open.

"Naoki-san, just in time!" Otomo Yoshimura's eyes lit up after seeing Naoki Nagayama. "There is something that needs you to decide!!"

"Nani?"

Naoki Nagayama had a feeling of being caught as a "strong man."

"Didn't you give a song to Daotian Yamin-kun before?" Otomo Yoshimura said. "It hasn't been assigned to any idol yet!"

Naoki Nagayama nodded after hearing it, that song *Time After Time ~In the City Where Flowers Dance~*, the theme song of the Conan movie.

"Hai, what's wrong?"

"Originally, if Naoki-san gave it to someone directly, everyone wouldn't have any opinions. But now that it's not assigned, several candidates are fighting for it!" Otomo Yoshimura said with a bit of trouble. "Junko-chan, Yuki-chan, Chikako-chan, and Momoko-chan all want this song!"

"Er..."

Naoki Nagayama could understand why the Cat's Eye Three Sisters didn't fight, because they didn't focus on singing, and he also knew why Kohiruimaki Kaoru didn't fight, because she was promoting *Love is Like After the Rain*... Speaking of which, are the other four all fighting?

"Didn't I let Daotian Yamin-kun look and give it?"

Otomo Yoshimura sighed again: "But this time Naoki-san didn't specify which singer! So everyone feels they have a chance!"

"Junko-chan said she is most familiar with Naoki-san's song style, and the past few songs have achieved good results... Yuki-chan said she only got one song from Naoki-san, and it's very unfair not to give it to her this time... Momoko-chan thinks she just debuted, and this song can keep her popularity..."

Otomo Yoshimura said a lot, then said, "Finally, it's Chikako-chan, she..."

"What happened to her?" Naoki Nagayama asked.

"She feels that since Naoki-san didn't specify anyone else, then everyone should compete fairly, and there needs to be a judgment standard! If someone wins, then the song should be given to her!" Otomo Yoshimura sighed. "What a smart girl!"

"This is a tactic. The contestant who originally had no reason actually pulled the four people to the same starting line..."

Naoki Nagayama recalled the pure girl. After mixing in the entertainment industry for a period of time, her thinking had become more mature. No wonder she could get a psychology license in her previous life.

"I see..." Naoki Nagayama touched his smooth chin. "I am killing four scholars with one peach!"

"Naoki-san, what nonsense are you talking about!" Otomo Yoshimura said helplessly. "Don't you know the value of your songs? You are clearly starting a civil war at Tree Friends!"

"...... It's not that exaggerated, right~"

"Of course it is. Daotian Yamin-kun has been annoyed by several idols for the past few days! He called me to complain!" Otomo Yoshimura shook his head. "Naoki-san, hurry up and think of a way to solve this, or just specify one person!"

"This..." Now he has to be the "bad guy"...

No matter how he chooses, he will hurt the feelings of others. How should he choose... Besides, this song is related to cherry blossoms, and it is prepared to be released during the cherry blossom season next year.

"Let Daotian Yamin-san hold it down first!" Naoki Nagayama pondered for a moment and said, "Just say this song will be released during next year's cherry blossom season... and it will be decided who gets this song based on the performance of each idol artist this year!!!"

"Actually... can it be done like this?"

The original resource became a prize, turning the contradiction into motivation. In the second half of this year, the enthusiasm of the idols will definitely go to a higher level!

Otomo Yoshimura looked at Naoki Nagayama with respect. This resource allocation method of "three in the morning and four in the evening" was handled with ease. If Naoki-san were a boss, he would definitely be a very successful boss!

Ah, by the way, he is already a very successful boss!

In the morning, he assisted Otomo-san in handling some things in the studio, then communicated with various employees, and by the way, confirmed that Kijima Xu had completed the assembly of the film production team. Naoki Nagayama then left the studio in a relaxed manner.

Near noon, after walking out of the car door, he felt a heatwave rushing toward his face, making Naoki Nagayama gasp... then he hurriedly quickened his pace and walked into a seafood restaurant.

Then he hurriedly ordered an iced tuna set... the kind of cuisine where sashimi and other seafood are placed on a large plate of ice...

Sure enough, eating such cool things in summer is the way to go~

Naoki Nagayama sat in a separate booth by the window, watching the scorching sunlight outside, pedestrians walking in a hurry, while he was eating cold and delicious seafood cuisine. His whole mood improved...

Sure enough, one's own happiness must be built on the pain of others~

A bit of a cheerful mood even made Naoki Nagayama hum an irregular rhythm... light and comfortable.

Just at this time, a few young girls suddenly walked past the window, laughing and jumping past his eyes, but suddenly stopped outside the display window, looking toward the window. It seemed that the reflection of the few people in the window made them laugh again~

Wearing summer T-shirts and small skirts of different styles but cool, some had sun hats on their heads, some had toad sunglasses on their foreheads, and some just had loose hair, with scattered hair even sticking to their sweaty faces. However, it didn't affect the smiles on their faces at all. This youthful and energetic look made everyone who looked over shine.

Compared to the sun above their heads, it seemed they themselves were the little suns full of vitality.

However, at this time, a girl discovered that there was someone behind the display window, and hurriedly pulled her companion and ran away laughing~

Naoki Nagayama was also infected and laughed... Sure enough, everyone likes cute girls full of sunshine!

Suddenly, a whistle seemed to come from his ear... The playful whistle was as full of vitality as the girls who passed by.

However, looking over, he didn't see the person whistling... until the whistling continued to ring in Naoki Nagayama's ear, slowly connecting into a continuous tune~

"This? Here?"

Today he was energetic, and there were no heavy emotions lingering in his heart. Naoki Nagayama didn't expect that he would be triggered by memories in his subconscious at this time.

"What triggered the memory this time?!" He immediately started recalling today's itinerary. Nothing special, right? Could it be Yukika Suzuki this morning? She was a fresh thing~

The whistling in his ear rang a bit more...

So it has something to do with her? Naoki Nagayama continued to recall, wanting to fish out the memory quickly, otherwise the auditory hallucination in his ear might last for a long time.

Until just now...

"Is it those girls?"

What does she have to do with it?

When the memory reached the few girls just now, a continuous memory fragment emerged from his mind.

The whistling in his ear connected into a relaxed rhythm, a light and fast guitar melody rang out, followed by a full-of-energy female voice...

"

Kira kira hizashi o abite (Bathing in the sparkling sunlight)

Makeup, and dressed, Are you ready to go?

Weather is great, it's your holiday!

We got to party all day long~

Happy day~ Summer day~

Sunshine Girl~

"

"This is *Sunshine Girl*!" Naoki Nagayama finally recalled the whole song.

Simple and light beats, relaxed and simple lyrics, plus the fresh female voice singing... fresh, natural, and full of infectious power, incomparably harmonious with this summer.

This recall process was very easy. It didn't even have the dizziness that should have been there. It was as if he had suddenly found a photo that he didn't know where it was hidden for a long time.

But the ritual sense that should be there still had to be there:

"Sumimasen, waitress-san..."

Naoki Nagayama signaled to the restaurant's waitress. Unexpectedly, a very enthusiastic waitress walked over. The waitress who walked over looked at Naoki Nagayama with great surprise, as if she recognized who was opposite.

"May I borrow some paper and a pen?" Naoki Nagayama asked.

Waitress Taniguchi Shie was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly nodded:

"Hai! Do you think this is okay?"

As she spoke, she handed over the paper and pen for the waitress to record the menu.

"Ha, it should be no problem~" Naoki Nagayama took it and laughed, then buried his head and started writing... Because it was a simple song, he didn't spend much time, and after writing the front, he wrote on the back too~ until this piece of paper was full of handwriting...

"Haha, done~"

After tearing off that page of the menu, Naoki Nagayama returned the paper and pen to Taniguchi Shie, who had been waiting on the side, and by the way, settled the bill,

"Arigato~"

"Excuse me, are you Naoki Nagayama?" Taniguchi Shie asked a bit tentatively.

"Oh? You recognize me?" Naoki Nagayama looked at this very young girl curiously. "Is it a fan?"

"Hai! I am a fan of Akina-chan!" Taniguchi Shie said a bit excitedly.

Naoki Nagayama's face turned awkward. It turned out that she recognized me because of Akina Nakamori? What is this? Basking in the wife's light?

"So that's how it is..."

A brief silence fell between the two... Suddenly, Naoki Nagayama smiled.

"Hahaha, that is also fate~" He took out the paper he originally planned to take back. It seemed that the original manuscript of the song that flashed in his mind had to be sent out after all. "Take this as a souvenir~"

Waitress Taniguchi Shie took the paper in surprise: "What is this?"

"It's a song I just created~ *Sunshine Girl*, keep it as a souvenir!" Naoki Nagayama laughed. "Just like the sunshine girl like the waitress-san~"

"Eh?!! This..."

"Don't recognize me because of Akina next time~"

After saying that, Naoki Nagayama walked toward the outside of the restaurant, leaving behind Taniguchi Shie, who looked at his back in surprise and joy. Until he walked out of the store door, Taniguchi Shie woke up like a dream and chased out, shouting at the distant figure:

"Naoki-san, my name is Taniguchi Shie~~~"

"Ah~ Taniguchi Shie! I remember it!" Naoki Nagayama turned his head and waved, sitting on the car dashingly.

When he left, Taniguchi Shie was still standing at the door...

It seems that this girl won't forget Naoki Nagayama in the future~ ===== CHAPTER 666 =====

When leaving, Shie Taniguchi was still standing at the door...

It seems that this girl will not forget Naoki Nagayama in the future~
