Tokyo: They say it's just dating, but they're serious about it.

However, after hearing Kanzaki Yumi say that Chinatsu is Katsuhiko's biological daughter, she was overjoyed and her mind went blank. She even changed the timeline of when she met Katsuhiko.

For example: "It was about five years ago, when he had just turned eighteen and I was only twenty-two..."

"Wow~ Did Misaka-neechan win him over back then? That's amazing~" Kanzaki Yumi exaggeratedly scratched her face, "It should have been earlier than Sayuri-chan, right? Why didn't they get married?"

"Oh dear, he was only eighteen back then, still a young boy. I was so much older than him, I felt so inferior, so I impulsively broke up with him. A few weeks later I found out I was pregnant. After all, it was his child, and I couldn't bear to abort it... When I met him again, I found out he had married Sayuri-chan. I pretended not to know him, but he recognized me at a glance. He even secretly took Chinatsu to get a paternity test without Sayuri-chan's knowledge, and then he insisted on keeping me... He insisted, and I had no choice..."

Wow~ You two are so romantic~

"Don't go telling everyone, Little Lily doesn't know yet!"

Kanzaki Yumi patted her chest and guaranteed...

When Mikoto arrived at the convenience store, Sayuri and Katsuhiko also happened to arrive.

The two were still holding hands, looking incredibly affectionate, with Xiaobaihe's eyes full of smiles.

Of course, Mikoto felt no jealousy whatsoever; in fact, she was secretly delighted because she had just devised a romantic storyline involving Katsuhiko, whom she had known for five years.

"Little Lily, what's making you so happy?" Mikoto greeted the two of them with a smile as she walked to the shop entrance. "Mr. Takenaka is amazing. He managed to soothe his wife in just one night."

Mikoto was also quite curious. Had Kotoha's problem been resolved? If it was a tacit agreement, Sayuri-chan shouldn't be this happy.

If he has lost contact with Qinye... with a husband like that, it's impossible for him to break off contact. Should he pretend to break off contact?

“My in-laws are coming to Tokyo,” Sayuri said smugly, tilting her chin at Katsuhiko before running into the store. “They already know that he’s going to break up with Kotoha, and they said they’re coming to back me up, hehe!”

"Uh?!"

Mikoto glanced at Sayuri, who had run into the shelf, then looked back at Katsuhiko and mouthed, "What should I do?"

Chapter 63 Mr. Kudo Joins the Company

Katsuhiko walked over to Mikoto and whispered, "Would you like to have a husband and his parents?"

Mikoto's fingers trembled slightly, her lips parted slightly, and she slowly shook her head.

Although I do want to gain the approval of Katsuhiko's parents.

But it's really unfair to Sayuri...

While the short Sayuri was hidden by the shelves, Katsuhiko walked over to Mikoto, placed his hand on her round bottom, gently stroked it, and whispered, "You can let Chika recognize her grandparents and say that she is my biological daughter."

Mikoto's eyes widened suddenly, she gasped for breath, her oval face flushed, and she swallowed hard.

She then glanced at the shelf where Sayuri was, quickly pressed down on the back of Katsuhiko's hand that was covering her buttocks, and whispered in a trembling voice, "Honey, thank you. This is already very good. We can't do any more."

After she finished speaking, she quickly stepped back, went around to the cashier, and then lay down on the cashier, burying her face in the crook of her arm.

Sheng Yan walked over, gently patted her trembling shoulder, and said, "I'm just letting you know in advance so you can prepare yourself. It definitely won't happen in the next few days, so don't get too excited. Just listen to my arrangements."

Mikoto stiffened, lowered her head, and remained silent.

Revealing Mikoto's true identity to her adoptive parents is a pretty good strategy. It'll teach that domineering adoptive father a lesson; maybe he'll get so angry that he'll never care about her love life again.

Of course, she needed to gain the complete acceptance of the elderly couple first, thus solidifying her position as the official wife...

Xiaobaihe is a good person; she's cute, innocent, and trusts her husband so much.

What if I upset her? Then I need to give her a place to complain, instead of letting her keep it bottled up.

Therefore, one's parents' place becomes a good place to vent emotions.

Now that you've become your own parents, you have to take on the responsibilities of being parents.

Whether they are shocked, indignant, or conflicted and distressed at that time, parents are magnanimous and don't need to worry about it.

As for reporting him, I'm betting that the old couple can't bear to part with their own son. Even if the lovestruck father gets angry, he can only be angry for a moment, since there's still the mother-in-law by his side, right?

In his unsealed memories, whenever Katsuhiko's mother cried, Katsuhiko's father would become a muggle...

Katsuhiko didn't linger at the convenience store. He said goodbye to Mikoto and Sayuri, got into Mikoto's silver-gray Mazda, and headed to the factory in Ota Ward to prepare to direct the afternoon's film shoot.

Now, Izumi Sakai's composition "Swaying Thoughts" has both lyrics and music, and she has also used the three newly acquired gold coins to exchange for three original songs.

The time limit remains 30 days. If it is not published within the time limit, it will be considered plagiarism failure: "The Times", "The Last Goddess", and "The Courage to Dream".

Sheng Yan read the lyrics and music, and slowly hummed them out. They sounded nice and had a beautiful melody, but he had never heard them before.

Therefore, he could never have imagined that this was the original music album "Era - Time Flows" that Miyuki Nakajima, who is in her forties, is about to release in five months, in October of this year.

"The Era" and "The Last Goddess" were still the main tracks. At this time, Miyuki Nakajima was also preparing for her new album. After all, it was an album with more than a dozen original songs, so she needed to think about it for a while longer...

Katsuhiko has four unreleased original songs in his possession. Although they are only valid for one month, he can shoot rough cuts much faster than regular films. He can shoot four or five in a month, and he can add them all to the end credits for an artistic upgrade.

I arrived at the factory at 8:30 a.m.

The photography studio was still under construction. Tanaka Yutaka stopped supervising the construction and instead gathered a few of his underlings who had crammed on shooting techniques. They held a temporary shooting area on the fourth floor for a final cramming session, carefully examining and adjusting the photography equipment with their laptops in hand.

Mai Asakura and Hitomi Yuuki haven't arrived yet, since filming was scheduled to start at noon. However, there were more than a dozen actresses sitting in the dressing room next to the temporary filming location. Three of them had filming experience, while the rest were debtors on Yutaka Tanaka's list. They had no filming experience, but their eyes were shining with excitement and anticipation.

Tanaka Yutaka promised them a great chance: they had a high probability of becoming idol stars. Do you know Ai Iijima? She was at the height of her fame.

After this month, Ai Iijima will successfully transition, leaving the acting world to enter the variety show industry, venturing into serious film and television dramas, and becoming a writer.

She not only reached the pinnacle of her career, but also became a beacon and a role model for all special actors. As a result, many actors entered the industry hoping to use her as a springboard to become successful transitional figures like Ai Iijima.

Sheng Yan stood in the hallway and glanced inside through the glass window. Seeing that they were all focused on exchanging ideas and learning, he didn't go in to disturb them. Instead, he went downstairs and headed to the beverage processing workshop.

He decided to get a few bottles of "Focus Potion" energy drinks for the actors and film crew upstairs to upgrade their learning efficiency and their not-so-bright minds.

Sheng Yan went downstairs and walked into the production workshop.

The equipment on the functional beverage production line, although acquired at a low price as second-hand equipment, looks to be about 90% new.

When the seller delivered the used equipment, he also gave away a truckload of empty beverage bottles and plastic seals that had not yet been printed with labels. Tanaka Yutaka also took the opportunity to recruit two skilled operators who had been laid off.

We can say that we can start production right now, but we don't know what we'll be producing yet.

The beverage processing workshop is now empty, but in the adjacent food processing workshop, the machines are running loudly, and several workers are busy at work.

The two cars are separated by a sliding door, and you can see the office of the production workshop next door from the doorway.

Eiyo, Kotoha, and Kanzaki Yumi were all in the office, along with Mr. and Mrs. Kudo.

As I mentioned during dinner last night, Mr. Kudo is here today to complete his onboarding process.

In the office, apart from Kanzaki Yumi standing there serving tea and water, Eiyo and Kotoha, Mrs. Kudo and Mr. Kudo, all four of them were sitting on the sofa.

Eiyo remained expressionless, Kotoha looked embarrassed, Mrs. Kudo smiled calmly, and Mr. Kudo smiled憨厚ly.

Katsuhiko was a little puzzled. What was Mrs. Kudo doing here? Was she going to inspect the filming location? Was she still obsessed with her dream of becoming a star?

At that moment, it seemed as if Kanzaki Yumi had suddenly grown eyes in her forehead, and she looked over here. Then, she smiled like a flower and waved to Katsuhiko.

Then, the four people sitting on the sofa also turned their heads at the same time.

Eiyo remained expressionless, Kotoha's surprise quickly faded, and Mrs. Kudo stood up, nodding to Katsuhiko with a smile.

Katsuhiko waved in response and walked toward the workshop office.

Before she even reached the door, Kanzaki Yumi strode out of the office, her high heels clicking crisply as she approached.

Kanzaki Yumi was still wearing a black blazer, her lawyer's uniform, with the collar of her white shirt turned out, revealing her long, fair neck.

She wasn't wearing black trousers; because she was also wearing a black coat, it was impossible to tell what she was wearing on her lower body. All that could be seen were a pair of smooth, fair, and straight calves.

Her short, ear-length hair made her look energetic and capable. She also wore light makeup, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, rosy lips, and a warm smile on her face, revealing a row of neat white teeth.

"Katsuhiko-kun, it's been a long time."

Kanzaki Yumi almost met Katsuhiko's face, stopping a step away before turning around and walking side-by-side with him toward the office.

“Didn’t I say last time that I like your unruly and carefree attitude?” Sheng Yan felt her hand about to slap his butt, so he took a small half step to the right. “You’re behaving like a simp.”

"What can I do?" Kanzaki Yumi also took a small half-step to the right and continued, "It's really hard to resist the man I admire, even though he's already married and has three girlfriends."

Last night, after learning about Mikoto and Katsuhiko's past and understanding Kotoha's treatment, Kanzaki Yumi became even more determined to win Katsuhiko over.

In addition, she also wanted to put some pressure on Yingdai. Although Yingdai was her boss at work, they were equals in life.

The more she bullies you at work, the more viciously you try to sow discord in your personal life...

Kanzaki Yumi was unaware that the two elders in the office were Katsuhiko's parents-in-law. The two elders had just sat down, and since Kotoha had revealed Katsuhiko's girlfriend's identity, it was quite awkward, and everyone avoided talking about it.

At this moment, in the office through the transparent glass window, Kotoha and Eiyo kept glancing at Mrs. and Mr. Kudo. Mr. Kudo was adjusting his white shirt, while Mrs. Kudo's smile was somewhat stiff.

Katsuhiko, without changing his expression, said, "Mind your image."

Since my parents-in-law already know what kind of person I am, it would be cowardly to keep hiding it.

However, he was somewhat surprised that Kanzaki Yumi, as expected of someone so free-spirited, was so brave.

His skin is as thick as mine.

Doesn't she know that the two elders sitting inside are Xiaobaihe's parents?

"We all know each other!" Kanzaki Yumi covered her mouth and chuckled, then, as she reached the door, she raised her right hand and slapped Katsuhiko's butt with a "smack!" "Wow, what a bouncy butt! You ambushed me like this last time, didn't you? Your butt feels pretty good too~"

Just now, when Kanzaki Yumi was working as a maid in the office, that wretched Eiyo suddenly became ill and forbade her from eavesdropping while she was talking to Kotoha.

How could Kanzaki Yumi possibly listen to her? She just eavesdropped.

Yingdai was hiding behind the door and guarding the place. She caught him by accident and made him do a lot of boring chores: wiping the tables and chairs three times, sweeping the floor three times, and taking out the trash.

It's okay! Just give me orders...

Sheng Yan paused, turning around in surprise.

In the office, with a crisp "snap," Yingdai and Qinye's shoulders trembled simultaneously, and they stared in disbelief.

Mr. Kudo, who was bending down to adjust his white shirt, paused, his ears twitched, and then he continued adjusting the shirt...

"Katsuhiko-kun is really popular with girls!"

Mrs. Kudo narrowed her eyes slightly, placed her hands folded on her abdomen, and with a gentle smile, stepped off the sofa and stood two steps away from Katsuhiko and Kanzaki Yumi. She continued, "My daughter Sayuri-chan has excellent taste. She truly deserves to be my son-in-law."

As she spoke, her smiling eyes glanced directly at Kanzaki Yumi, a sharp glint flashing in them.

Kanzaki Yumi's smug glance at Eiyo's face suddenly froze.

These two country bumpkins, weren't they looking for a job? They were so obsequious when they came in... how did they become the official parents?

Currently, the only information Kanzaki Yumi knows is about Katsuhiko's romantic relationships with several women, while Sayuri knows nothing about them either.

She wasn't stupid, of course, and she would definitely keep it a secret from Xiaobaihe. If the legitimate wife found out, her love life would be very bumpy. After all, it was no different for her to be after her husband's money than after her own... Oh no!
