Tokyo: The life of a literary giant begins with home self-defense!

Chapter 448: The Irresistible Beauty of Takeda Maki 3
Long Chuanche stood outside the door for a long time.

His intention was not to disturb his executive's work and negotiations.

However, when the young lady next to him told him that the contract the woman was about to sign was very unreasonable, he still couldn't help but walk in.

He wasn't quite sure why the other person had become the president of TRT, nor did he know why the other person had resigned from their position at Kodansha.

but
"good morning."

Long Chuanche smiled and pressed down on the woman's hand as she was about to sign.

[Prices from the National Education Finance and Management Center and TRT Library]

The National Education Finance Management Center is a management corporation of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. Tatsukawa Toru glanced at the price.

That's really a labor-intensive price.

"Why are you here?"

Takeda Maki was stunned. The boy had sneaked in like a ghost, and...
"What do you mean?"

Minamino Shion was already somewhat dissatisfied; being interrupted during any discussion was considered very impolite.

She was about to scold him, but when she saw Natsuko Imamura coming in with her, she quickly shut up.

The Ministry of Education is just a small plot of land in Imamura Yukawa.

Many people have seen this girl's photo.

"If there's anything we need to discuss, we can reschedule for another time."

The woman left with a smile, and Takeda Maki opened her mouth to say something but was interrupted by Ryukawa Tetsu.

"What are you doing!"

With her business deal about to be finalized interrupted, Maki Takeda glared at Toru Ryukawa with annoyance.

"I should ask you this."

Ryukawa Toru picked up the woman's name tag; the title of "company president" on it looked completely unfamiliar.

After leaving the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, I found a coffee shop and sat down.

Longchuan looked at her strangely after hearing what the woman had been doing lately.

"So, the time you exchanged your shares in the Yinyu Group recently, was it all for this? To start your own company?"

Before going to Kyoto, Tatsukawa Tetsu had heard from his wife that the woman was planning to exchange some of her shares in the Otowa Group, but he didn't expect her to act so quickly.

Not only did they exchange their shares for a large amount of assets, but they also became a publisher called TRT.

Competition in Japan's book industry is fierce.

Long Chuanche looked at the other person with a "can you even do this?" look.

Do you think I'm some kind of nobleman?

The woman's forehead vein throbbed, and she uttered a very presumptuous remark.

“Working within the group ultimately means working for the Takatsukasa family, so I wanted to try something different.”

The woman casually uttered these words as she swirled the coffee in the white cup with a silver spoon.

Long Chuanche remained silent; he knew that wasn't actually the case.

The woman's sudden action was likely related to the dinner party that day.

Maki Nijo used her and her sister to threaten Toru Ryukawa, which made her feel a sense of urgency.

He craves higher wealth and status and is no longer satisfied with his position as managing director of Kodansha.

Longchuan Che wanted to apologize, but felt it was unnecessary.

What does TRT mean?

Long Chuanche was curious. He could only associate TRT with a power generation device, but the other person was clearly not a science student.

"Don't worry about this."

The executive officer suddenly looked a little uncomfortable. He picked up his coffee cup, took a sip to cover the blush on his face, and then suddenly asked a question.

Why are you here?

The place where the group was chatting was opposite the No. 7 Hall of the Central Contract Hall.

This area is home to WILLCOM headquarters and Oki Electric Industries headquarters, making it a prosperous area for both business and politics.

"You might not believe it."

Longchuan Che's rant.

"The provincial and ministerial textbooks you want to print were compiled by us."

Life has created a beautiful chain reaction.

Maki Takeda resigned from Kodansha after hearing that the Ministry of Education had a large number of reprint and republication plans and came to discuss it.

Unexpectedly, the material to be printed was written by Tatsukawa Tetsu and his group.

"The printing of textbooks must go through the textbook review and investigation committee, the general affairs department, the accounting department, and the facilities and support department."

The young lady could tell what Long Chuanche was thinking just by looking at his darting eyes.

"It has no direct connection with the Educational Facilities Planning Department that we've been in contact with." The young lady poured cold water on Ryukawa Tetsu's enthusiasm, knowing that he wanted to help Takeda Maki secure the project.

"Nothing is impossible to a willing mind!"

The style of his work suddenly shifted from being established in the literary world to being turbulent in the business world.

Both women looked at him with strange eyes.

"I'll find another way to handle this."

Maki Takeda pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a headache coming on. The Ministry of Education's offer was too low, and she was actually a little hesitant about whether to accept the entire offer.

The group chatted for a while in the coffee shop, and as they were leaving, Maki Takeda seemed to have thought of something.

"You two are living together now?"

The woman frowned as she looked at the two people who had come in and out together.

“We’re engaged, so of course we’ll live together.”

The young lady raised an eyebrow at the other woman; she had been tricked by this woman back in France.

It has to be said that Natsuko Imamura can be quite petty at times.

"Ah."

Takeda Maki sneered and turned to look at Ryukawa Tetsu.

The words 'Follow me' were written all over his face.

"We're all friends, let's talk things out."

For some reason, even though he knew his engagement to the young lady was not real, Tatsukawa Tetsu still had the illusion that he was going on a date with his lover behind his wife's back.

The young lady remained silent for a second, two seconds, three seconds with a gloomy face.

"come back earlier."

The young lady gave Long Chuanche a look that was hard to tell whether it was dangerous or considerate.
Wife's smile.

"You two are getting along well now, aren't you?"

As soon as Natsuko Imamura left, Maki Takeda grabbed Toru Ryukawa's ear.

This man secretly got engaged, and now it seems that Natsuko Imamura also considers him her wife.

"Okay."

Long Chuanche chuckled awkwardly, unsure how to explain himself.

"Alright, come back to Kodansha with me."

Fortunately, the woman didn't press the matter further and led Long Chuanche to her car.

It's still the same luxury MPV. Even though she left Kodansha, the woman is doing better than most people.

How much did the new company cost you?

Sitting in the woman's car, Tatsukawa Tetsuya was a little curious.

Being able to negotiate with the Ministry of Education for project approval indicates that the woman's new company is not small.

A publishing house that can print millions of books a quarter must have considerable human and material resources.

"We acquired several publishing houses that were on the verge of bankruptcy."

The woman was resting her face on her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"More than 30 billion, I guess."

Publishing houses possess not only various hardware and software facilities, but also, and most importantly, the copyrights of the books they have signed contracts with.

This incident may have wiped out the woman's entire savings.

"what?"

The boy next to her suddenly squeezed her hand, and Maki Takeda smiled in annoyance.

"Feel sorry."

Longchuan Che spoke up, and in the end, he decided to apologize.

The real reason why a woman leaves a company she has run for many years is actually because of herself.

She can enjoy the stable life she has worked so hard for as long as she makes up her mind to leave him.

But she didn't.

She used her own methods, refusing to admit defeat, to strive for a future that would rival the Kujo family's wealth.

The air conditioning inside the MPV accentuated the woman's elegant and aloof face.

At that moment, Tatsukawa realized that he seemed to have fallen in love with the other person.

The sunlight was both gentle and intense.

The woman's fingertips were slightly cool but gentle.
