My daily life with the original diva

Just like any other newlywed couple, Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori were enjoying their wonderful married life, doing ordinary things they hadn't done in a long time, and that was enough to make them both very happy.

After enjoying two days of leisurely newlywed life, Kimura Hiroshi took Nakamori Akina back to her hometown in Kasukabe. They stayed there for a day and then went to Nakamori Akina's hometown, Kiyose. This time in Kasukabe, Kimura Hiroshi finally met Nakamori Akina's family.

Or rather, Nakamori Akina's whole family came to see him, including Nakamori Akina's father, brother, and sister. However, these people were all rather timid in front of him and dared not put on any airs of elders in front of him. At the last wedding, they had witnessed Kimura Hiroshi's connections. He had people in both the entertainment industry and the political world.

Faced with such a son-in-law, how could they dare to do anything to him? They could only show him a respectful attitude. However, Kimura Hiroshi did not hold his head high. After all, these were Nakamori Akina's parents and family, and they had to give them the respect they deserved. Of course, that was all they could do.

In Kiyose, Akina Nakamori didn't seem to intend to stay. After lunch and some chatting, she pulled Hiro Kimura away. It's unclear whether she didn't want to face certain people or was trying to take care of him, fearing he might not feel comfortable there.

After meeting both sets of parents, the wedding rituals are complete. Next, the honeymoon trip begins. This trip will be quite long, so before that, Kimura Hiroshi needs to take care of some work.

On the morning Kimura Hiroshi was supposed to go to handle some business, when he was woken up by his alarm clock, he found that Nakamori Akina was no longer in bed. Wearing slippers, he went to the living room and saw Nakamori Akina setting the table at the dining table.

Seeing that Kimura Hiroshi had gotten up, she smiled, put down her plate, and ran to his side, saying, "Ah, Hiroshi-kun, you're awake. You're going to work now, right? Well, you should go wash up now. I've already squeezed the toothpaste for you, and the towel is in there too. After you wash up, you can have the breakfast I prepared. Also, I've ironed your suit, it's on the sofa in the living room. Oh, and the tie, I bought it especially for you, Hiroshi-kun."

Seemingly to boast, or perhaps to show off the results of her busy morning, Nakamori Akina walked up to Kimura Hiroshi and chattered away, telling him everything she had done that morning.

I did so many things this morning, it wasn't easy at all. Ironing clothes and making breakfast took a lot of energy and time. It seems like I got up very early to get all these things done.

With a slightly amused expression, Kimura Hiroshi couldn't help but grab Nakamori Akina's face and say, "Why do you have to get up so early to do so many things? I didn't mean for Akina to do these things. I can get the toothpaste and towel myself. You don't need to iron your clothes either. You can eat breakfast outside. Akina can just sleep well."

Grabbing Kimura Hiro's hand that was cupping her face, Nakamori Akina said with absolute certainty, "How can you do that? What I'm doing is what a housewife should do. How can I sleep in late? What kind of behavior is that? Okay, Hiro-kun, hurry up and wash up, or you'll be late for work."

She didn't listen to what Kimura Hiroshi said at all. Nakamori Akina urged Kimura Hiroshi to wash up quickly, then eat and go to work. Kimura Hiroshi, who was being pushed to the bathroom, could only obediently go and wash up.

After washing up, I went out to try the breakfast made by Akina Nakamori. It was a very traditional Japanese breakfast: fried rice. Japanese people usually eat natto or rice with eggs for breakfast, but Hiroshi Kimura has never been able to accept natto, let alone rice with raw eggs. Akina Nakamori naturally knew Hiroshi Kimura's taste, so she made Chinese dishes like fried rice with eggs.

However, this is a very light fried rice, with very little oil and salt, but it has a strong aroma from the chopped green onions, and tastes quite good.

The side dishes included some boiled cauliflower, a serving of ham, and miso soup. This is a standard meal for Japanese people. Kimura Hiroshi wasn't particularly averse to it, but he didn't particularly like it either. He would drink it if it was available, but it didn't matter if it wasn't.

After taking a bite of the fried rice, I found it quite delicious. Although it was rather bland, it's always good to eat something light for breakfast. Under Akina Nakamori's gaze, Hiroshi Kimura gave her a thumbs up and said, "It's really delicious, Akina, it tastes great."

"Ah, really? Well then, I'll start eating too. Wow, fried rice is definitely better than mixed rice! Every grain is so flavorful. No wonder Hiro-kun prefers fried rice to mixed rice." Nakamori Akina was also impressed by her own cooking skills, exclaiming how delicious it was, her expression quite exaggerated.

Unable to resist laughing at Nakamori Akina's exaggerated expression, Kimura Hiroshi said, "It's very delicious, but you don't need to get up every day to make breakfast. That would be too tiring. Akina, you should know that you'll age very quickly if you don't get enough sleep. You need to get enough sleep to stay young, you know?"

This is the truth, but Nakamori Akina showed a skeptical attitude at this moment. She ate the food in her mouth and asked suspiciously, "Hiro-kun once told me that drinking alcohol will accelerate aging, not drinking water will also accelerate aging, being too tired will also accelerate aging, and now not getting enough sleep will also accelerate aging. If it is really as Hiro-kun said, then won't we die of old age very soon?"

Kimura Hiroshi was slightly embarrassed, never expecting that he would talk so much about how people age. But he still stubbornly said, "Well, these are all reasons that accelerate aging, so we should avoid them. I didn't want Akina to work too hard, so I said so much."

"Hehe, I know, Hiro-kun just wants me to get some rest, but if my husband doesn't have breakfast when he gets up early, wouldn't I seem like a terrible wife?" Nakamori Akina said with a hint of worry.

After finishing the last of his fried rice, Kimura Hiroshi replied, "What's wrong with that? So many young people eat breakfast out these days. They don't have that much time to make breakfast at home. And as a husband, I think Akina is good enough. What can anyone else say?"

That makes sense, Nakamori Akina nodded in agreement, then asked, "But won't Hiro-kun be laughed at by his colleagues for eating breakfast out? They'll think it's not good that Hiro-kun still eats breakfast out even though he's married?"

Such worries are unnecessary. Kimura Hiroshi held Nakamori Akina's hand and said, "I'm the student council president. Who dares to laugh at me? Okay, from now on, if Akina is in a good mood and wants to get up early to prepare a loving breakfast for me, I'll definitely be happy. But if you feel a little tired, don't get up early. Just get some sleep, okay?"

"Okay, fine, I'll do whatever you say, Hiro-kun. Ah, stop talking, it's almost time, Hiro-kun, hurry up and change your clothes and go to work." Nakamori Akina checked the time. They were so engrossed in their conversation that they ate very slowly and were already past their allotted time. They had to leave quickly or they would be late.

“Don’t worry, Akina, I’m the president. They won’t say anything if I’m a little late. Besides, I have a rule that allows employees to be late by half an hour six times a month, so there’s no need to rush,” Kimura Hiroshi explained.

Akina Nakamori clearly didn't want Hiroshi Kimura to be late, because in her mind, being late was a very serious matter. So she urged Hiroshi Kimura to change his clothes and then hurry up and leave for work.

There was nothing Kimura Hiroshi could do. With such a new wife, what could he do but let her be? Urged on by Nakamori Akina, Kimura Hiroshi changed his clothes, grabbed his briefcase, and went out.

However, before leaving the house, Kimura Hiroshi bent down and touched his lips with his finger, as if to say that he wanted a kiss before going to work.

Newlyweds, this is the most basic thing, so Nakamori Akina naturally didn't hesitate. She grabbed Kimura Hiroshi's shoulder and gave him a kiss, not forgetting to say, "Work hard, okay? If you don't have any social engagements, come home early. I'm not the kind of housewife who wants her husband to be so busy with work. Don't work so hard, Hiroshi-kun."

"You really are kind. I'll remember that. Akina, I'm off now. If you're bored at home, you can go out and have some fun. We can cook dinner together when you get back," Kimura Hiroshi reminded her.

Housewives don't have to stay at home all the time; that would be too boring. Going out and having fun is good for relaxation, whether it's shopping or meeting up with friends.

"Okay, Hiro-kun, let's go quickly." Nakamori Akina pushed Kimura Hiro away, and only closed the door after Kimura Hiro's figure disappeared at the elevator entrance.

A happy smile appeared on her face as she muttered to herself, "How could I be bored at home? There are so many things to do! But Hongjun isn't a strict husband. He's really lenient with me, his wife. He doesn't even make breakfast. I wonder if his other wives would be envious if they knew?"

In Japan, the traditional husband-to-wife model still largely prevails. The husband works outside the home while the wife stays at home as a housewife, and in many couples, the wife is a full-time housewife.

This can lead to an imbalance in the relationship between husband and wife. Coupled with Japan's deep-rooted history of male chauvinism, many husbands, because they earn money and control the finances, will have very strict demands on their wives. For example, they must keep the house spotless, get up in the morning to make breakfast for their husbands or prepare lunch boxes for them to take to work, and do things like washing and ironing clothes. In short, there are endless housework.

For someone like Hiroshi Kimura, who doesn't expect housework from the start and can even skip breakfast, that's a huge help to his wife. At least she can sleep in late in the morning, something many Japanese housewives can only dream of.

Having grown up in the city, Akina Nakamori was very familiar with the way ordinary couples interacted, so she could truly feel the care that Hiroshi Kimura gave her.

This made Akina Nakamori feel very happy. She just thought it would be boring at home. But Akina Nakamori didn't think so. She first took all the dishes from the dining room to the kitchen, then hummed a song as she washed all the dishes, and then cleaned up the kitchen.

After dealing with the leftovers from breakfast, she went to the living room, wiped the dining table clean, and then cleaned the entire living room, using a vacuum cleaner to thoroughly remove the dust. Only then was the living room considered clean.

Then there was the room. Nakamori Akina cleaned the room first, then took the sheets off the bed to wash them. Smelling the faint smell of sweat on the sheets, Nakamori Akina's pretty face turned slightly red, and she murmured, "Tonight, I absolutely won't allow Hiro-kun to do anything reckless again. He's been like this for several days in a row, he should get some rest, otherwise it's not good for his health."

In the first few days of their marriage, Hiroshi Kimura was indulging in revelry every night. Akina Nakamori felt that he should take a break. Although Hiroshi Kimura still seemed to have endless energy, that was only because he was young and had a strong ability to recover. This was not something that could be maintained all the time. One should be careful when one is young.

She took the dirty sheets and clothes to the bathroom and soaked them first. While she was doing this, Nakamori Akina cleaned the bathroom inside and out, leaving no stone unturned, whether it was on the surface or in the crevices. She cleaned very carefully because she liked the feeling of the bathroom being spotless and disliked any dirt or grime.

After cleaning the bathroom, the house was pretty much cleaned up. Then I put the clothes in the washing machine to wash them, in batches: outerwear was outerwear, underwear was underwear, and the sheets were washed separately.

I didn't have time to process things slowly like this before, but now that I have time, Akina Nakamori arranges everything very meticulously. Taking it slow allows me to get things clean and gives me a great sense of accomplishment afterward.

The washing machine was running, and Nakamori Akina didn't just wait there. She went to the living room, turned on the TV, and started watching. As a TV enthusiast, she had many favorite shows, such as music shows, anime, and tokusatsu dramas like Kamen Rider. She could watch them all, which showed how wide her interests were.

"Ah, it feels so comfortable to lie on the sofa and watch TV. How could I possibly be bored at home, Hiro-kun? It's so comfortable, okay?" Nakamori Akina said to herself with a smile.

Chapter 640 Work After the Wedding

When you're in a good mood, even a massive traffic jam while driving can be enjoyable. Take Kimura Hiroshi, for example. His new wife is urging him to hurry up and get to work, which naturally means he's encountered the morning rush hour, a time that's incredibly painful for drivers. The roads are completely jammed, and he can only move forward slowly. However, compared to his previous anxiety, Kimura Hiroshi is quite calm now. Slow is fine.

So, unsurprisingly, he was late when he arrived at the company. But no one cared that he was late. When he appeared at the company entrance, the receptionist greeted him with a smile and said, "Happy wedding, Chairman."

Kimura Hiroshi naturally responded with a smile. Upon entering the company, he found it still bustling with activity, with employees busy with their own tasks. Upon seeing Kimura Hiroshi, they would quickly greet him with great respect.

"Ah, Chairman, you're here at work. I thought you wouldn't come to the company until you were on your honeymoon." At the office door, Sato Kayo, the chairman's secretary, quickly stood up and greeted Kimura Hiroshi as he arrived.

It seems that the impression that he, as the chairman, would be absent from work for extended periods when things get complicated has been deeply ingrained in the minds of the company's employees. Kimura Hiroshi just smiled and said, "A honeymoon means being away from the company for a long time, so before the honeymoon, you should at least take care of some company matters. By the way, is there anything I need to handle recently?"

"Yes, President, there are several documents that need your signature. Because it was your wedding, there were some things that urgently needed to be confirmed, but no one dared to bother you. So now that you have time, please take care of them." Sato Kayo quickly started rummaging through the documents at her seat.

As chairman, he is responsible for making many decisions about the company, which is inherent to the power structure of private enterprises. Kimura Hiroshi's long-term absence from work can be considered extremely irresponsible towards the company. Fortunately, he had already selected a professional manager; otherwise, the company would have been in disarray long ago.

"Bring them all to my office." Kimura Hiroshi opened the door and walked into his office. Standing in front of his desk, he took a deep breath. Although he hadn't been there for a long time, the air in the office was still very fresh, and there was no dust on the desk. It was obvious that someone came to clean it every day. It must have been someone sent by Sato Kayo or Matsumoto Takaaki.

Sitting in his own chair, Hiroshi Kimura turned around. Although he had been sitting in this sofa chair for several years, it was still very comfortable. It was indeed a high-end product that was custom-made.

Not long after he sat down, Sato Kayo brought in a stack of documents and placed them in front of Kimura Hiroshi. Sato Kayo said with a smile, "You're going to have a hard time, Chairman. You have to deal with so many documents so soon after your wedding."

"What's the big deal? After I finish these documents, I'll have a long vacation ahead of me. It should be very comfortable. But it'll be hard work for Kayo-chan. I wonder if the work pressure will be too much?" Kimura Hiroshi asked with a hint of concern.

"I don't feel much pressure at all. On the contrary, I feel a bit too relaxed. President, when I first came here to work, I was thinking of working to pay off my debts. I didn't expect the work to be so easy. The president doesn't assign me a lot of extra work. I get a generous salary and not much work. I feel a little guilty." Sato Kayo quickly replied.

It was Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori who got her out of the agency and even paid off her breach of contract penalty. When she came to work, she was indeed prepared to work hard to repay Hiroshi Kimura and Akina Nakamori's kindness and pay off her debts.

Unexpectedly, she became Kimura Hiroshi's secretary. How to put it, the workload was much less compared to other companies, and there weren't many troublesome things. Of course, she wasn't the only one like this. In fact, most of the other employees in the company, except for those in the production department who were sometimes very busy, didn't have a very heavy workload.

Their salaries are top-tier, even in Tokyo they are among the highest, which is something Sato Kayo didn't expect. She also felt that Kimura Hiroshi didn't treat her specially, because most employees can enjoy this treatment, it's just a matter of whether the salary is higher or lower.

Feeling guilty? Kimura Hiroshi found it somewhat amusing and comforted her, "What are you feeling guilty about? Your salary isn't among the highest of the employees. The highest salaries are for management and production staff. Kayo-chan is just a regular employee in the company. It's nothing special."

While the company offers generous compensation, the highest-paid employees are those in production. They are responsible for production and are the hardest-working people in the company, as the products are made by them. Therefore, frontline employees naturally deserve the best treatment so that they can work diligently and responsibly, ensuring the quality of the movies and TV series they produce.

This is a rule that Kimura Hiroshi set when he founded the company, and it is still being implemented very well to this day, which is something Kimura Hiroshi is very proud of.

"Yes, I know, Chairman. Ah, we've been chatting for a long time, but I haven't looked at the documents yet. Chairman, let me tell you about these documents so you can confirm them quickly and avoid having to work overtime. Otherwise, the Chairman's wife might not like me, since she actually kept her newlywed husband working overtime." Sato Kayo said with a hint of teasing.

Although Kimura Hiroshi was her superior, they were still friends in private. So Sato Kayo wasn't really that afraid of Kimura Hiroshi and couldn't help but joke with him. Was she afraid that Nakamori Akina would call and cause trouble for her? That was obviously impossible. She was just teasing Kimura Hiroshi for being newly married.

"You have no respect for your superiors at all. Alright, tell me what's going on. I need to check on things at the company and get them sorted out quickly. I also need to go to the manga club later, so I don't have much time. I promised Akina I'd cook dinner with her tonight." Kimura Hiroshi didn't mind sharing some personal matters with Sato Kayo.

Nodding repeatedly, Sato Kayo said with a slightly envious tone, "Okay, then let's get it done as soon as possible. The chairman is actually going back to cook dinner with his wife. As expected of a newlywed couple, they really seem very happy."

Without continuing his casual conversation with Sato Kayo, Kimura Hiroshi began to seriously examine the documents. Sato Kayo had previously organized these documents, and she knew exactly what they said. This was why secretaries around important figures were so crucial; if they had problems, many of the important figures' secrets would be exposed, because many things had passed through their hands.

Recently, Wit Studio hasn't had any major troubles or important matters. The main focus has been on the production of TV dramas and movies. Hiroshi Kimura hasn't been filming recently, but other films and TV dramas directed by him are still proceeding according to plan. For example, Takeshi Kitano is currently busy filming a new movie.

This guy was filming halfway through the movie when he suddenly wanted to replace an actor and even submitted a report to him. The reason for the replacement was that the actor had provoked him on set. When Kimura Hiroshi saw the report, he shook his head repeatedly.

“If you want to change actors, then change them. Why bother reporting this to me? It’s a waste of time. Tell Kitano-san that if he wants to change, then change them.” Kimura Hiroshi quickly made his decision.

But at this moment, Sato Kayo spoke up, saying, "Chairman, this actor was recommended by TV Asahi. If we replace him, they might be unhappy. That's why Director Kitano submitted the report to you. Otherwise, he would have replaced him himself long ago."

"Ah, so that's the reason. No wonder Kitano Takeshi always had to tell me before changing actors. It's really strange. So it was recommended by Asahi TV." Kimura Hiroshi realized that there must be a reason behind Kitano Takeshi's boldness in having to tell him before changing actors.

The entertainment industry is ultimately a circle of relationships, where many things are intertwined with various interests. Making a single move could offend someone. Kimura Hiroshi stroked his chin, wondering if replacing the person recommended by Asahi TV this time would cause any unnecessary trouble. Kimura Hiroshi wasn't sure.

"I'll make a call to TV Asahi and see what's going on with this actor." Kimura Hiroshi started making calls to inquire about the situation.

A reply came quickly. Kimura Hiroshi smiled as he received the answer, and then said to Sato Kayo, "Tell Kitano-san that we can change the person, but the newcomer will still be recommended by TV Asahi."

After resolving this matter, Hiroshi Kimura continued to handle other things, such as the budget for the new TV series, the promotion of the movie filmed last year, and whether or not to collaborate with a certain agency, etc., which could not be finished in a single morning.

There was no other way, so Kimura Hiroshi could only deal with the rest in the afternoon. He went to lunch first, but he didn't go alone. Instead, he invited Sato Kayo and Matsumoto Takaaki, and the three of them went to an izakaya not far from the company. There weren't many people eating there at lunchtime every day.

Because many office workers either bring their own lunch or eat boxed meals nearby, they won't spend too much money on lunch unless they have a very high salary, like someone like Hiroshi Kimura, who would bring people to an izakaya to order food and eat.

It wasn't anything too extravagant; Kimura Hiroshi ordered four dishes, rice, and drinks, which was more than enough for lunch.

While eating, Kimura Hiroshi discussed some issues he encountered while handling documents that morning with Matsumoto Takaaki. There were some things he couldn't decide on his own, so he would discuss them with Matsumoto Takaaki. As the president, Matsumoto Takaaki was very capable, even though he liked to flatter him. He had insightful views on some matters, and Kimura Hiroshi liked to listen to his advice.

This guy kept staring at Sato Kayo while they were eating and discussing things, and even told Sato Kayo right in front of him that the dishes were delicious and asked her to try them, acting as if he, the chairman, was completely ignored.

"Hey, hey, President Matsumoto, this is a working lunch. Even though it's break time, can you please stop ignoring me as the chairman and get down to business? Can't you work on your love life after get off work?" Kimura Hiroshi couldn't help but remind Matsumoto Takaaki.

Sato Kayo blushed instantly at these words. She seemed to feel that her thoughts had been read, and immediately winked at Matsumoto Takaaki, her meaning clear: he should not go too far and should not continue to do strange things in front of Kimura Hiroshi.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Chairman, I understand. Let's continue with work. But Chairman, you're already married, while I'm not. I'm already thirty years old. Please consider my situation and say a good word for me in front of Kayo-chan." Matsumoto Takaaki shamelessly asked Kimura Hiroshi for help to his face.

Kimura Hiroshi was a little stunned by his words. He really hadn't realized that Matsumoto Takaaki was so shameless and audacious. But it was also normal. With such strong abilities, there was no reason why he wouldn't have some extraordinary skills.

"Hey, President Matsumoto, what are you saying? If you say that again, I'm not going to talk to you anymore." Sato Kayo was clearly not expected Matsumoto Takaaki to say these things, and she suddenly became a little anxious.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Kayo-chan, I was in a hurry." Matsumoto Takaaki quickly apologized, looking like he had done something wrong.

But looking at it this way, Kimura Hiroshi sensed a hint of conspiracy. Matsumoto Takaaki must know that he shouldn't have said those words, but he still said them to Sato Kayo, boldly expressing his feelings and giving Sato Kayo a signal that he was willing to do many things he wouldn't have dared to do before for her.

Goodness, she's a master. Kimura Hiroshi looked at Sato Kayo and wondered how long this naive girl could last before Matsumoto Takaaki won her over.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Matsumoto-san and I will finish everything this afternoon. Also, I'm going on my honeymoon in a couple of days. Matsumoto-san, you need to pay more attention to company matters. You can decide some things yourself. Don't call me unless it's something really important, so as not to disturb my honeymoon. Understand?" Kimura Hiroshi began to instruct him on what Matsumoto Takaaki should do during his honeymoon.

That means don't bother him unless necessary. Nobody likes having to deal with work while on vacation, and Kimura Hiroshi is no exception. Honeymoons only happen once, and he wants to leave behind only beautiful memories.

"Okay, Chairman, I understand. Unless it's something particularly important, I definitely won't bother you," Matsumoto Takaaki quickly assured him, as he was well aware of this.

Chapter 641 Such an operation is still possible
