My daily life with the original diva

With so many people around, things that weren't originally a big deal started to get chaotic, especially since we brought a lot of stuff yesterday. Now that things are in such a mess, finding things again won't be so easy.

After a flurry of activity, it wasn't until after 8 o'clock that the bride's attire was finally finished. Nakamori Akina did most of the makeup herself, while the other things were done by the women who didn't help much and could even be described as making things more complicated. But in the end, they managed to get everything sorted out.

Seeing Akina Nakamori dressed in a white wedding gown, with a veil on her head and bridal makeup, all the young women present stared in disbelief. They couldn't help it; she was just too beautiful. Even as women themselves, they couldn't help but take a second look at such a stunning outfit.

"You're so beautiful, Akina-chan. No wonder people say that women are most beautiful on their wedding day. It seems to be true now," Sato Kayo said with a hint of envy.

"Yes, she looks really good. That kid Kimura Hiroshi got lucky and married our Akina-chan. But even so, we can't let that kid Kimura Hiroshi have it easy. We'll go to his house often and harass him. What do you all think?" Koizumi Kyoko rallied everyone to fight against Kimura Hiroshi.

Unfortunately, those present were either employees of Kimura Hiroshi's staff or artists from the agencies he controlled. None of them had the courage to go against Kimura Hiroshi. Although they were friends, they didn't dare to be too presumptuous. Therefore, Koizumi Kyoko's proposal obviously could not gain support, and there was only low laughter in the room.

Knowing that Kyoko Koizumi was a little reluctant to part with her, Akina Nakamori stepped forward to comfort her, "Okay, Kyoko-chan, even if I get married, you can still come to my and Hiro-kun's house anytime you want, but you can't bully Hiro-kun, okay?"

It was meant as a joke, so Koizumi Kyoko wouldn't intentionally provoke Kimura Hiroshi. Instead, she grabbed Nakamori Akina's hand and said, "You should just stand up for your Hiroshi-kun. If he bullies you in the future, I won't help you."

After the laughter and commotion subsided, Akina Nakamori's mother, Chieko, arrived with breakfast. Seeing that Akina Nakamori had already been prepared, Chieko smiled gently and said, "Thank you all for your help. Come and have some breakfast. When Kimura comes to pick you up later, there won't be time to eat."

Seeing her mother approach, Akina Nakamori quickly went to greet her. Chieko, looking at her daughter who was about to get married, couldn't help but pat her hand and said, "Akina looks so beautiful today. I can't believe how fast time flies. I remember you were just a little kid when you participated in the audition, and now you're getting married."

"Yes, that's right. Time flies. I also want to thank Mom for her support all these years. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to enter the entertainment industry, let alone meet Hiro-kun. So, thank you, Mom," Nakamori Akina said sincerely.

Although Chieko did have the idea of ​​letting her daughter enter the entertainment industry and make a lot of money back then, she did support Nakamori Akina enough by having her participate in so many auditions, which helped her successfully sign a contract and become famous. Although Chieko didn't do everything perfectly, she did a great job in helping her daughter realize her dream.

"It's all thanks to Akina's hard work. So today you're getting married and becoming someone's wife. You must live a good life, don't be as naughty as before, and be more patient, okay?" Chieko gave her final instructions.

Akina Nakamori naturally remembered all of her mother's instructions; after all, she still listened to her mother.

After chatting and having breakfast, they made their final preparations, and it was already past nine o'clock when Ms. Noriko ran over and said, "Akina-chan, Kimura-san is here! The wedding procession is downstairs, but there are so many people, including a lot of reporters."

These words jolted everyone in the room. They all knew that the wedding was about to begin. Nakamori Akina's expression was also quite special at this moment. She was happy, excited, and a little nervous and shy. She was fiddling with the lace on her wedding dress, as if she was a little at a loss.

Downstairs, at this very moment, besides a convoy of more than twenty luxury cars, there were countless fans and ordinary citizens watching. Everyone knew yesterday that Nakamori Akina would be getting married at this hotel, so a considerable number of people came to watch.

Of course, reporters from various media outlets were also present, with cameras and video cameras all pointed at the scene, constantly taking pictures. The biggest news in the entertainment industry in recent years has been the marriage of Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori, so they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to take some good pictures.

Fortunately, there were enough security personnel around the hotel. The hotel was also aware of this, so it dispatched a large number of security personnel, which was able to maintain order and prevent people from running around and causing any accidents.

As he stepped out of the car, Hiroshi Kimura heard shouts from fans and onlookers, some of which were particularly shrill, seemingly saying things like, "Kimura-chan, don't get married."

His marriage clearly broke the hearts of some young Japanese girls. There's no way around it; as the most popular male celebrity among young women, his marriage inevitably shattered the dreams of many young girls, and that feeling is not pleasant. After all, finding another celebrity as outstanding as him as a dreamer is not an easy thing to do.

However, Kimura Hiroshi pretended not to hear the shouts. What surprised him was the large number of people present. It seemed that his wedding was indeed receiving a lot of attention, even more than he had expected. Among them, besides fans and music lovers, there were probably many onlookers who just wanted to watch the excitement.

Amidst shouts, Kimura Hiroshi waved to them and then walked straight into the hotel without making any further moves. There were other guests in the hotel at the time, and they readily made way for him, some even smiling and greeting him.

In response to them, Kimura Hiroshi did not linger. He took a couple of groomsmen, who were actually Matsumoto Takaaki and Tamaki Koji, and headed straight for the presidential suite upstairs.

When they arrived at the presidential suite where Akina Nakamori was staying, the door opened automatically. Akina Nakamori stood in the middle, surrounded by several close friends dressed in formal attire. They were all beautiful women, which made Koji Tamaki stare wide-eyed. This guy was no gentleman and was quite obsessed with beautiful women.

There's none of that stuff from China, like having to give red envelopes or playing games to deliberately make things difficult for the groom. He can just walk straight in and take the bride away; there's no need for anything else.

But how could Kimura Hiroshi do that? As a groom with Chinese customs, he still retained some habits. After entering the house, in front of the bridesmaids, Kimura Hiroshi directly took out a stack of red envelopes he had bought at a Chinese store and stuffed them into the bridesmaids' hands. Inside were 1,000 yen in new bills that he had exchanged in advance.

"Thank you for your hard work, Rie-chan, here's your red envelope. Kyoko-chan, thank you for your hard work, here's your red envelope. Akie-neechan, here's your red envelope..." Kimura's unexpected move shocked everyone present. However, the bridesmaids didn't refuse, since it was a red envelope with money inside, so they happily accepted it.

Among them, Rie Miyazawa was particularly curious about how much money was inside, and she actually started talking about the contents of the red envelope right in front of everyone. When she opened it, her eyes widened, and she made a five-point gesture to Sachiko Kamachi, and mouthed "50,000 yen!"

That's no small amount; it's 50,000 yen. Although the people present actually have quite high incomes and don't care about 50,000 yen, they were still surprised by Kimura Hiroshi's generosity. They thought it was just a token gesture.

"Alright, Akina, cough cough, my wife Akina, I've already bribed all your friends, so they won't stop me from taking you away. Now, please come with me to get married." After handing out the red envelopes, Kimura Hiroshi went over and took Nakamori Akina's hand, saying this with a slightly joking tone.

Upon hearing this, Akina Nakamori couldn't help but laugh. Her eyes narrowed into slits as she pulled Hiro Kimura's hand and said, "If Hiro-kun doesn't pay, they won't stop us, so Hiro-kun is at a huge loss."

"That's not necessarily true. Cough cough, we only didn't stop him because of the money. Otherwise, we would have pushed Kimura-san out and closed the door to prevent him from coming in," Koizumi Kyoko said with great certainty.

"Yes, yes, that's what I was thinking too. If Brother Hong doesn't give me a red envelope, I'll close the door and not let him in. Well, that's how it is. But for the sake of the red envelope, I won't do that," Miyazawa Rie chimed in.

"Yes, yes, that's definitely true." Everyone started to chime in, as if they were confirming Kimura Hiroshi's words, making the whole thing seem almost real.

"Haha, thank you everyone! You're all people of good faith. Akina, let's go. It's almost ten o'clock, and the church is waiting for us." Kimura Hiroshi pulled Nakamori Akina along and headed outside, with the others following immediately.

Chapter 636 The Wedding

When Hiroshi Kimura led Akina Nakamori out of the hotel with their wedding procession, it immediately caused an even bigger uproar. Whether they were just watching the spectacle or were fans of the couple, everyone was excited.

"Bang, bang..." The sound of celebratory cannons rang out at the entrance, followed by the release of beautiful balloons into the sky, making the entire hotel entrance area incredibly dazzling and colorful.

Amid cheers and cannon fire, Kimura Hiroshi, hand in hand with Nakamori Akina, walked smilingly toward the wedding car. As they walked, the two waved to the people present, since regardless of their purpose in coming, they were all witnesses to the wedding, and it was normal for them to greet them.

If it were any other celebrity's wedding, there would likely be a brief interview with reporters to answer some questions. However, this wasn't the case for Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori's wedding. They didn't need any publicity or to please the reporters; all they wanted was to have a smooth and successful wedding.

So the two of them got into the wedding car, a very long Rolls-Royce. This was not Kimura Hiroshi's car, but rented by the wedding planning company. Kimura Hiroshi and Nakamori Akina do not like very big cars because it is troublesome to park when they get home if they drive themselves, and hiring a driver would not be private enough. So even though they are not short of money, they do not have any top-of-the-line luxury cars.

Once inside the car, besides the driver and Ms. Noriko's assistant, there was no one else around, allowing the two of them to finally have some peace and quiet.

Unable to resist taking Nakamori Akina's hand, Kimura Hiro carefully examined Nakamori Akina today. She wore a pure white wedding dress, and her makeup was a bit heavy. There was no way around it; Nakamori Akina was a cold beauty. When her face was expressionless, she had a kind of aloofness. So, in order not to appear cold and plain on her wedding day, her makeup needed to be more vibrant to make herself look softer.

Although this makeup is very different from his usual look, Hiroshi Kimura felt that it had a unique feel to it, that it was beautiful, and that it also gave off a dignified feeling.

"Ah, you really look great, Akina. You look even better than when you did your makeup test. Is it because lovers always see each other as beautiful?" Kimura Hiroshi said with a teasing tone.

Having gotten used to Kimura Hiroshi's compliments, Nakamori Akina wasn't too embarrassed. She smiled and said, "Of course! Even if I look terrible with makeup, Hiroshi-kun would probably still compliment me on how pretty I am. But I made some special changes to my makeup today; I think it looks even better this way."

"Yes, yes, that's true. Did you sleep well last night? Were you too excited to sleep?" Kimura Hiroshi asked with great concern.

"I slept very well. I chatted with Kyoko-chan and the others until 11 o'clock before falling asleep. I didn't wake up until 7 o'clock this morning. Maybe I should thank those reporters who interviewed me yesterday. They exhausted me so much that I fell asleep in bed not long after lying down, and I slept very comfortably," Nakamori Akina said with a hint of pride.

Judging from this, he must have slept very well last night. On the contrary, he was too excited and got up a little early, Kimura Hiroshi thought. But it was okay, since he had slept for so long, he wouldn't feel too tired during the wedding.

After everyone who needed them got into their cars, the wedding procession headed toward the church. Reporters were taking pictures along the way, but Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori stayed in their cars and didn't show themselves, leaving the reporters to only photograph the wedding procession.

While reporters were filming, Fuji TV and TV Tokyo were broadcasting their wedding live, and the viewership was very high. There was no way around it; even in Tokyo, it was impossible for everyone who wanted to see their wedding to be there in person, let alone Japanese people living elsewhere. So, they could only watch the live broadcast, which naturally resulted in good viewership.

The convoy arrived at the church, which was also surrounded by people, much like the situation at the hotel. The staff opened the Rolls-Royce door, and Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori stepped out of the car hand in hand. Following their previous actions, they greeted the people present and then walked towards the church.

When they arrived at the church, the situation was a little different, as many guests were already waiting there, including relatives and family members of Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori.

Kimura Hiroshi's side included his parents, older sister, and many other relatives, as well as the so-called politicians he had invited. Nakamori Akina's side included her mother Chieko, three older sisters, older brother, father, and even her younger sister Akina, who had been missing for a long time.

There were quite a few important figures present today, including well-known entertainers, creators, agency presidents, and politicians. This made Akina Nakamori's father, Akio Nakamori, as well as her brother and sister, all hesitant to make any moves, and Kimura Hiroshi didn't even need to send anyone to keep an eye on them.

Ultimately, these kinds of people only dare to bully their own family members, but they are timid and cowardly when facing outsiders, especially those in very high positions. They are even afraid to speak, for fear of offending others. This is why they can't accomplish anything. Without enough courage and being timid and afraid of trouble, they are destined to never achieve anything.

With Akina Nakamori by his side, Hiroshi Kimura went up to greet the relatives, friends, and guests one by one. Everyone was doing them a favor by attending their wedding, so naturally, they had to say a few words to them. In particular, Hiroshi Kimura pulled Akina Nakamori aside and talked to them for a while. There was no way around it; it was a task assigned by his father, Nobushi Kimura, to get them to appear on television more often.

After completing these steps, they were finally allowed to enter the church. The guests found their seats and began the formal wedding ceremony. In this solemn church, under God's witness, they would become husband and wife. Although neither he nor Akina Nakamori believed in any so-called God, this was the customary way to hold a wedding in Japan, and they had no choice but to follow it.

Hiroshi Kimura has always kept his distance from religion, especially in Japan, where all kinds of beliefs exist and many obviously unorthodox things can be spread freely. For example, the Japanese top gunman who later assassinated the former prime minister did so because his mother believed in some strange thing, which led to the destruction of his family. In a fit of rage, he shot the two gunmen, shocking the world.

There are plenty of these kinds of things in the entertainment industry, and some people might even deliberately try to sabotage you. So, Kimura Hiroshi tries to stay as far away from these things as possible. He can't do anything about it now that he's getting married, otherwise, he wouldn't have come.

The church was newly decorated, with flowers everywhere and a red carpet on the ground. Nakamori Akina took Kimura Hiro's hand and walked towards the innermost part of the church, where there was a large cross. They would read their wedding vows and exchange wedding rings under the cross.

With their families standing on either side, Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori faced each other in front of the priest and began the most important ceremony of the wedding: reciting their wedding vows.

During the previous rehearsal, Hiroshi Kimura read the wedding vows with a smile. Although it wasn't required during the rehearsal, Hiroshi Kimura thought it was fun and read it with Akina Nakamori. Today, they were going to read it again, but this time he was very serious and there was no joking around.

His eyes were fixed on Nakamori Akina as he solemnly read his wedding vows, as if making a promise. Nakamori Akina rarely saw Kimura Hiroshi like this. She stared blankly at him for a moment, then her eyes began to redden, and tears streamed down her face.

Kimura Hiroshi naturally knew that Nakamori Akina was crying tears of joy. He forced himself to finish reading the vows, then reached out to wipe away Nakamori Akina's tears, and said in a joking tone, "Even if you're happy, don't cry. If you cry, they'll think Akina doesn't want to marry me, and then I'll be wronged."

This amused Nakamori Akina, who quickly stopped crying and said, "I've never seen Hiro-kun talk to me about these things so seriously before, so I couldn't help it. Now I'm not crying anymore, it's my turn to read the oath."

After carefully reading the vows, the next step was exchanging wedding rings. With the priest's blessing, the wedding ceremony was considered complete, and the guests erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers. There were no dramatic scenes like someone trying to steal the bride or disagreeing with the decision.

Amid cheers, the wedding was officially over. However, there were still some follow-up events, such as speeches from both sets of parents and guest representatives. The wedding lasted for about half an hour before it officially ended. Next was another chat session with the guests, but this time they were not just formal guests, but friends of Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori.

There were quite a few people present today, including close friends like Yoshiro Hosono, Kagami Hanami, and Ikuya Fujii, as well as acquaintances like Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi and Yu Hayami. In the wedding church, they all offered their blessings, and no one said anything sarcastic; at least the etiquette was impeccable.

After receiving the blessings, the next step is to move to the hotel, where the highlight of the wedding is the banquet. In Chinese customs, this is arguably the most important part of every happy event. Without the banquet, what kind of happy event is it? However, in the context of the internet in later generations, the meaning of the banquet has been quite different.

However, on their way to the hotel, Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori returned to the hotel first. Only two cars went back, as they needed to change out of their Western-style clothes and into traditional Japanese attire. The wedding ceremony in front represented Westernization, while the latter part represented a return to Japanese tradition.

Kimura Hiroshi, who had almost never worn a kimono, put one on for the first time, as did Nakamori Akina. After they came out, they couldn't help but laugh. There was nothing else to it; it just felt very strange.

"It's so strange. I don't feel any traditional vibe when Hiro-kun wears a kimono. How should I put it? I just feel like this outfit doesn't suit Hiro-kun at all. Why is that?" Nakamori Akina said, looking at Kimura Hiro.

Similarly, Hiroshi Kimura felt the same way. Compared to him, who only changed his clothes, Akina Nakamori not only changed into a kimono but also wore a wig, revealing her large forehead. Tying up one's hair is a symbol of a woman's marriage because modern hairstyles cannot have such long hair, so a wig is needed.

However, Kimura Hiroshi found Nakamori Akina's outfit rather odd. To put it simply, Nakamori Akina is more suited to modern urban attire, such as playing a modern city woman like Akana Reika, rather than this traditional neon-style look.

"I also think it's inappropriate, but who cares? We'll only be wearing it for today. After the banquet, we can change out and wear whatever we want." Since it's only for a short while and we can change out after the banquet, Kimura Hiroshi didn't think it was a big deal.

"That makes sense," Nakamori Akina nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Hiro-kun is right. Let's hurry to the restaurant now. The guests are probably still waiting. We need to get there quickly, attend the thank-you ceremony, and then let them have a good meal."

"Yes, yes, everyone is waiting for dinner. Today's banquet is very lavish. Akina and I will also try the dishes from our wedding banquet later. How about it?" Kimura Hiroshi said with a slightly enticing tone.

As a foodie, Nakamori Akina was naturally eager to know what her wedding banquet would taste like, so when Kimura Hiro mentioned it, she became even more impatient and said, "Okay, okay, Hiro-kun, let's hurry up and get there quickly."

The two set off again by car and arrived at the hotel. By this time, all the guests had arrived and were already seated, waiting for them. However, they were not too late, as the time had not yet come and the host of the thank-you ceremony had not yet arrived.

The two sat down in their seats, with microphones and various flowers in front of them. After waiting for a while, the host of the thank-you ceremony arrived, followed by various words of thanks. Kimura Hiroshi and Nakamori Akina didn't need to do anything; they only needed to say a few words of thanks when the host asked them to speak. The host did the rest.

After a twenty-minute thank-you ceremony, the final part of the wedding was finally completed. After the emcee's final words of thanks, the ceremony ended, and then it was time for the banquet. The restaurant started serving the dishes while the two of them were talking, and by then almost all of them had been served. After they finished speaking, they officially began to eat.

However, Kimura Hiroshi and Nakamori Akina couldn't eat yet; they had to go and toast all the guests present. This was something Nakamori Akina really enjoyed, as she was a bit of a drinker. But Kimura Hiroshi wouldn't let her drink like that; he had already diluted her drink with most of the water.

Chapter 637 Wedding Night

"Ugh, this is exhausting. I never imagined that organizing a wedding would be this tiring. I wasn't this tired during the rehearsals!"

At 11 p.m., Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori finally returned to their new house. As soon as Akina Nakamori entered, she immediately collapsed onto the sofa, complaining of being tired. She is the kind of person who rarely complains of being tired, so hearing her say this shows that she was truly exhausted.

There's no way around it. During the wedding rehearsal, each step is just a quick run-through and doesn't take much time. But during the actual wedding, every step has to be completed. We're busy from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., so it's impossible not to be exhausted.

After the wedding banquet today, I chatted with the guests in the afternoon, then checked out of the hotel. In the evening, I invited relatives from both sides to have dinner together, and that's when the whole process was finally complete.

Looking at Akina Nakamori slumped on the sofa, Hiroshi Kimura smiled. He walked over, sat down next to Akina Nakamori, and let her lean on him, saying, "You must be tired. That's how weddings are. If it's too easy, it will seem too casual. So the process is complicated, which also makes the wedding more memorable for the people who are having the wedding."

"Huh, is there really such a saying?" Nakamori Akina asked, somewhat incredulously.

Hiroshi Kimura nodded firmly. It can be said that most important ceremonies around the world are complicated and require a lot of effort to reflect their solemnity. If they are too simple, they will not have that feeling.

"But this is the only time. Now that our wedding is officially complete, we are husband and wife both legally and customarily. So, Akina, what should you call me?" Kimura Hiroshi asked jokingly.

Now that they're married, it's natural to call him "husband." When Kimura Hiro asked her that, Nakamori Akina squirmed and whispered, "Husband?"

"Ah, what? The sound is too soft, I can't hear it!" Kimura Hiroshi stuck his ear out, as if he really couldn't hear anything at all.

Now that she'd called him that first, Akina Nakamori stopped being coy and leaned on Hiroshi Kimura's shoulder, whispering loudly in his ear, "Honey, honey, can you hear me now?"

"Why are you so loud? I heard you, honey." Kimura Hiroshi complained that Nakamori Akina's voice was too loud, and then changed his address to "wife".

This infuriated Akina Nakamori, who punched his shoulder several times. Unfortunately, she didn't really use any force; it was more like she was punching Hiroshi Kimura's shoulder—it was too improper and not very comfortable.
