When Takayanagi Ichiro arrived at Ifukube Yashiro's house, Ifukube Yashiro was quite surprised.

Since I didn't need to supervise the construction today, I had a long talk with my good friend Nogizaka Hatsuka at my home, and the person I talked to was Takayanagi Ichiro.

"Mr. Takayanagi, how could you..."

Now, Ifukube Yashiro knows about the relationship between Takayanagi Ichiro and Kasugano Sora, and he also vaguely understands that the relationship between Takayanagi Ichiro and Etsumiko is also quite abnormal.

Takayanagi Ichiro should be with the two of them, so why did he suddenly appear in his house?

Although she said she had feelings for Takayanagi Ichiro, she only told her good friend.

However, when the opportunity actually came, Ifukube Yashiro was still a little hesitant to believe it.

"I came to this town to do charity work, but the biggest investment I've made is in you."

I'm not trying to get any return on my investment from you; I just want to say goodbye before I leave.

When faced with a woman like Ifukube Yashiro, Takayanagi Ichiro didn't use any sweet talk, but chose to tell the truth.

Because she was a woman who had left the small town and worked outside for a period of time, her knowledge and experience were on a completely different level from those of the people in the small town.

If Ichiro Takayanagi really lied to him, even if he didn't realize it at the time, he would definitely have some resentment towards Ichiro Takayanagi after he figured it out later.

In that case, Ichiro Takayanagi might as well tell the truth; perhaps it will have a different effect.

It really did have that effect. Ifukube Yashiro was very happy after hearing it, and behind her, she heard another voice.

"Yashiro, do you have any guests?"

After speaking, the woman slightly squeezed Ifukube Yashiro inside, and then appeared in front of Takayanagi Ichiro. She was a great beauty.

Moreover, she was dressed in professional women's clothing, and her overall demeanor was comparable to, or perhaps even more alluring than, that of Ifukube Yashiro.

Nogizaka Hatsuka actually knows Takayanagi Ichiro, but Takayanagi Ichiro does not know Nogizaka Hatsuka.

"Mr. Takayanagi, this is my good friend Nogizaka Hatsuka. She is now the personal maid of the eldest daughter of the Nagisa family."

Today happens to be his day off, so he came to my house for a visit.

After introducing Nogizaka Hatsuka to Takayanagi Ichiro, the introduction of Takayanagi Ichiro immediately followed.

"Mr. Gao Liu is from out of town, but he came to our town with no ill intentions; he was there entirely to do charity."

I don't know what the effects of other forms of charity are, but my personal subsite was very powerful, allowing me to secure the storefront and renovate it.

Mr. Takayanagi is someone who changed the course of my life. I haven't had a chance to properly thank him before, and I never expected him to leave this small town so soon.

Nogizaka Hatsuka could tell that Ifukube Yashiro had feelings for Takayanagi Ichiro. She didn't try to stop him, but instead gave him a light handshake and then introduced herself.

"I've heard a lot about Mr. Takayanagi these past few days, but I never expected him to be such a handsome guy."

Furthermore, you've spearheaded some reforms in this town, and in the future, many people will surely consider Mr. Takayanagi their savior.

Nogizaka Hatsuka does not consider Takayanagi Ichiro her benefactor, because she has no intention of leaving this small town to continue her journey to the big city.

If she really had such thoughts, then she would have stayed in the big city to work after graduation, instead of coming back here to become Nagisa's maid.

"I don't intend to be anyone's savior, but just to do something that is more beneficial, and this is not entirely a good thing."

Some people will be grateful to me, while others will curse me in their hearts, because I have changed the long-standing order of this small town.

Hearing the conversation between the old man and Nogizaka Hatsuka made Ifukube Yashiro a little nervous, because Nogizaka Hatsuka was a maid of the Nagisa family and could sometimes represent the Nagisa family's wishes.

If the two of them were to clash here, Ifukube Yashiro would be in a bit of a dilemma, because she wouldn't know who she would side with.

“Mr. Takayanagi, the Nagisa family will definitely support the reform you are bringing in. Even if some people have complaints, the Nagisa family will help resolve these issues.”

Nogizaka Hatsuka had a vague idea of ​​how the head of the Nagisa family treated Takayanagi Ichiro, so she quickly made a statement that she did not intend to have any conflict with Takayanagi Ichiro.

Nogizaka Hatsuka's attitude surprised Ifukube Yashiro, because Nogizaka Hatsuka had never treated others this way before. Could it be that Takayanagi Ichiro had an even more mysterious identity?

"I have no doubt about the influence of the Nagisa family here."

Furthermore, I will not have any disputes with the Nagisa family on this matter; you can report this back to them.

Since Nogizaka Hatsuka wants to make her stance clear, Takayanagi Ichiro will not take any forceful actions.

Chapter 514 An Indispensable Consultation

Takayanagi Ichiro doesn't know much about Nogizaka Hatsuka, but he won't do anything difficult with her.

"Mr. Takayanagi, please come in and have a seat."

Ichiro Takayanagi and Hatsuka Nogizaka showed no signs of conflict, which made Yashiro Ifukube very happy.

Therefore, they directly invited Takayanagi Ichiro into their home to discuss some matters, without intending to send Nogizaka Hatsuka away.

Nogizaka Hatsuka had no intention of leaving on her own, because she had heard some information about Takayanagi Ichiro from Ifukube Yashiro.

Now that she has the opportunity to meet him in person and get to know him better, she certainly doesn't want to miss it.

She invited Takayanagi Ichiro into the house and prepared tea for him. She knew some information about Takayanagi Ichiro from Yumiko, so she did things to please him.

"Mr. Gaoliu, I will definitely manage this shop well."

After Takayanagi Ichiro sat down, Ifukube Yashiro immediately made such a promise to him.

Since Ichiro Takayanagi spent a lot of money on her, he definitely needed to see some results.

"I didn't mean to be strict with you, I just wanted to give you some reminders."

I learned some things about you from those three little cuties. I hope you can offer them more help in the future and make sure they don't have a hard time living here.

Takayanagi Ichiro did not demand any guarantees from Ifukube Yashiro; he only asked her to promise what she could do.

"May I ask if those three little cuties are Chie Sayama and the others?"

At this moment, Nogizaka Hatsuka spoke up and mentioned Hatsuichi's name.

"Yes, you know Chu Jia too?"

Those three adorable kids in the first year of junior high were indeed quite lively in this small town.

However, he had no interaction with Nogizaka Hatsuka. Now that Nogizaka Hatsuka knew some of his names, Ifukube Yashiro found it a little strange.

"I know a bit about those three families, but I didn't expect they would have connections with you, Yashiro."

It's not surprising that those three adorable girls have a connection with Ifukube Yashiro.

The three little cuties are connected to Ifukube Yashiro, which will be of some help to their future lives, but they are even happier because they are connected to Takayanagi Ichiro.

Takayanagi Ichiro is an outsider, but his identity is quite mysterious, and even the head of the Nagisa family treats him with great respect.

Now that Ichiro Takayanagi has given special instructions to Yashiro Ifukube, it means that they have a very good relationship with Ichiro Takayanagi.

To be honest, Nogizaka Hatsuka is now a little envious of the three cuties' fates, especially after learning more about the connection between Ifukube Yashiro and Takayanagi Ichiro.

Actually, Nogizaka Hatsuka doesn't really want to change her current lifestyle; she's already quite content with her current situation.

However, there is still a slight difference when you see that Ifukube Yashiro received a large sum of money from Takayanagi Ichiro, and that the three little cuties also received special instructions.

"Chu Jia, this is what happened..."

Actually, Ifukube Yashiro had only talked about her relationship with Takayanagi Ichiro before, and hadn't talked about her relationship with the three little cuties. Now that Nogizaka Hatsuka has asked, Ifukube Yashiro will definitely have to give a truthful report.

Takayanagi Ichiro did not interrupt Ifukube Yashiro's narration; some things are best said through someone else.

After listening to Ifukube Yashiro's story, Nogizaka Hatsuka was speechless, not expecting such a way of communicating.

"Yashiro, actually I'm a little envious of you and those three cuties now."

Nogizaka Hatsuka is always straightforward with her good friend, directly stating that she is quite envious of her.

"Chujia, you were already better than me in your studies back then, and now some of your abilities surpass mine as well."

If you truly want to change your current life, you can start taking action now. I believe Mr. Takayanagi is definitely someone who is happy to help others.

Ifukube Yashiro persuaded her good friend, hoping that Nogizaka Hatsuka would stand on her side.

"Yashiro, thank you very much for your concern, but I am quite satisfied with my current life."

I am very pleased that you have received Mr. Gao Liu's help, and I hope that you will achieve something in this endeavor.

Furthermore, I believe you are a very capable person, but you haven't been able to fully utilize your abilities in the past due to certain characteristics.

Nogizaka Hatsuka was indeed a little envious before, but she chose to endure it in the face of Ifukube Yashiro's persuasion.

Because she knew that she and Ifukube Yashiro were not the same kind of people, and even with Takayanagi Ichiro's financial help, it was absolutely impossible for them to achieve the same success.

“Mr. Takayanagi, don’t listen to his humble words. In fact, he is much more capable than me.”

You only need to invest a tiny amount of money in him to reap countless times the return.

While Nogizaka Hatsuka was still being modest, Ifukube Yashiro didn't hold back and directly stated her judgment.

Ifukube Yashiro's words made Nogizaka Hatsuka a little nervous. She was very worried that Takayanagi Ichiro would listen to Ifukube Yashiro and invest more money in her, and it would be hard to say what would happen if he lost money.

“In this kind of matter, it is definitely necessary to listen to the opinions of the parties involved. If we invest blindly, it would be a risky behavior for both me and Nogizaka Hatsuka.”

Takayanagi Ichiro's words touched Nogizaka Hatsuka's heart, and she vaguely understood why her good friend Ifukube Yashiro had fallen for him.

For someone as mysterious as Ichiro Takayanagi to exhibit such gentle behavior at this time is a fatal flaw.

To be honest, Nogizaka Hatsuka is really a little tempted.

“Mr. Takayanagi, although I asked for a lot of leave before, she thinks you are the most amazing person in the world, so I plan to continue to learn from you.”

Ifukube Yashiro also noticed the change in her good friend, and of course she was willing to help her good friend, so she wanted to set an example for her.

After hearing this, Takayanagi Ichiro was a little stunned, because he couldn't stop asking for advice all day.

"Okay."

At this point, Ichiro Takayanagi naturally wouldn't refuse, and immediately left the living room with Yashiro Ifukube.

Nogizaka Hatsuka was stunned, not expecting the two to be so direct, leaving her completely ignored.

So Nogizaka Hatsuka didn't sit idly by either, and immediately followed after him in small steps. She wanted to hear what Ifukube Yashiro was asking Takayanagi Ichiro.
