My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

"Okay, I know you're awake now, get up." Whether or not you need to lie down and rest depends on where you fell, but clearly there's no need to do so here.

"Then I'm going to have my morning grumpiness."

The front door was pushed open, and a commotion broke out in the conference room. Except for Shiraishi Sawa, Ichiriki Chiyo, and the old man, everyone stood up and bowed.

"Hello, President!"

"Cough cough, it will flare up later, your uncle and aunt are here."

"Sigh, what are they doing here?" The others wouldn't play along with Shiraishi Sawa's act. Chiyo Ichiru, who had also heard "Hello, President," finally looked up and saw her mother smiling at her.

Shiraishi Sawah sighed. It was fine that Ichiriki Nao came in, but Ichiriki Yumi, who followed her in, didn't even look at her own daughter. Instead, her gaze was immediately fixed on him as soon as she entered.

The key point is that the way he looked at me was still so kind.

Shiraishi Sawa's 'calm' smile.

Chapter 296 Investigation and Lunch

"Good morning, Mother and Father." Because they were in public, and in front of her subordinates, Chiyo treated the two men the same, even being more respectful to Yumi.

Yumi only nodded slightly, but Shiraishi Sawah felt that the other person's expression was one of secret smugness.

What brings you here?

"I just finished a meeting upstairs and stopped by to see how your studies are going." Nao Ichiryu didn't speak, but Yumi Ichiryu, the 'head of the family,' gestured for the others to sit down before walking over and saying this.

"Don't worry, Father, I'm studying very hard. Would you like to check?"

Nao Ichiryu picked up the lecture notes in front of Chiyo Ichiryu, looked at them for a while, and then handed them to Yumi Ichiryu, saying, "Really? Honey, look how many notes Chiyo has. She must have been listening attentively."

"Hmm, not bad." With a dignified expression, Yuuki Ichiri nodded, not taking the lecture notes, but instead picking up the ones in front of Shiraishi Sawa. He then looked at Shiraishi and said, "Shiraishi-kun, how are you doing? Can you understand what Professor Yuuki is saying? He's a well-known expert in this field in our country, and it's not easy to get him to teach."

"I can understand most of what the teacher said, and I've mastered the basics." Shiraishi Zexiu stood up, bowed slightly to show respect, and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.

"Okay! I'll test you." Satisfied with the other person's actions, Yuuki nodded and picked up the pen on the table.

Chiyo gave her mother a look, signaling her to stop her father, but her mother just smiled and shook her head. Then she looked at Shiraishi Sawa with the same interest.

The others in the room, though seated, remained silent, adhering to the principle that silence is golden. At this moment, they were even more interested in the person who had come with their company president's daughter.

"Ok."

What are the key factors companies consider when selecting talent?

"It's about hard skills, personality..."

What are the similarities and differences in SWOT analysis between traditional enterprises and new "Internet Plus" enterprises?

"In terms of advantages, traditional enterprises..."

.......

Finally, when asked a fundamental question that hadn't been addressed before—"What is the essence of finance?"—Shiraishi Sawahide shared some of his thoughts, and the Q&A session ended.

"Not bad. Although the answer to the last question was rather superficial, it's acceptable for a beginner." Yumi Ichiri nodded approvingly, but Shiraishi Sawa could clearly see the regret in her eyes.

...Clearly, the other person really wanted him to answer incorrectly. Sure enough, men are all full of mischief.

"Alright, we should go now, Yumi." Nao Ichinori smiled with satisfaction and winked at Chiyo Ichinori. "Chiyo and Sawa are studying very hard. Their class isn't over yet, so let's not disturb them."

Chiyo let out a barely audible sigh, a slight upturn at the corners of her lips, her expression a mixture of helplessness and a hint of pride.

"Yes, Mr. Kei, you've worked hard. Please pay attention in class." After saying these words calmly, the two left the conference room.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became much more relaxed compared to before.

"It seems that Baby Dog is studying not only for me, but also for himself. If you answer incorrectly, Father will definitely scold you severely to vent his anger. For the sake of his pride, I won't be able to help you then."

Chiyo was stretching lazily, her beautiful curves taut, and the buttons on her uniform seemed like they might burst open at any moment, sparking all sorts of fantasies.

However, the 'explosion' did not occur until the end of the action.

However, if it really explodes, the first thing Shiraishi Sawa Hide would probably do is take off his coat to cover her up; he definitely wouldn't have time to appreciate it.

"So what the teacher said before, 'studying is for yourself,' was true." Shiraishi Sawah agreed. He had self-control, so after Ichiyo finished stretching and staring at himself for a long time with a 'have you seen me?' look, he looked away.

"Being good-looking has many advantages; I didn't even find you sleazy just now," Chiyo Ichiru commented.

"Hey, if I were to peek secretly, that would be perverted. What I just did was just being a pervert."

"The thought that someone like you exists in the world makes me worry about the safety of women traveling."

"I won't look at them, I'll only look at you openly like this..." Shiraishi Sawa's voice gradually weakened.

"The most dangerous kind of scoundrel is the one who thinks too highly of himself. Let's continue the lesson." The two opened their lecture notes and continued listening to the old man's lecture. Noticing that Shiraishi Sawa's expression was a bit strange, Ichiyo asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Shiraishi Zexiu shook his head.

On the newly opened lecture notes, someone had written a few words in a wild and unrestrained manner.

"You gave me this cheap silver ring? It's not even a perfectly smooth ring, and Chiyo treats it like a treasure. Didn't Nao transfer two hundred million to you? Next time you give Chiyo something, don't let me see something so cheap."

"If you dare show these words to Chiyo, don't expect me to give you a friendly look at the company."

To be honest, his handwriting is really not good. As someone in a high position and the president of several companies, he needs to practice his handwriting. I'll have to find a way to persuade him to do so later.

--

After finishing her morning classes, Chiyo told Shiraishi Sawa about the points she didn't understand, and then he went up to the stage to ask the old man. After the problem was solved, the two went to the building's staff cafeteria for lunch.

"According to the novel's plot, there should be a talented but unappreciated junior employee who meets a rich young lady like you." In a corner of the cafeteria, sitting in front of Chiyo Ichiriki, Shiraishi Sawa teased.

Are you feeling unappreciated despite your talents?

"I'm pregnant, I'm nine and a half months pregnant, if I don't meet a benefactor soon, I'll be gone."

"I don't like other people's children, so let's meet again in a month."

"That month wasn't enough. I was pregnant with Nezha, who takes three years to give birth, so it will take more than two years."

"Never mind then, it's been too long." Somewhat absurdly, Chiyo took a small bite of rice, a smile playing on her lips.

"I also think it's been too long. Although Shunji Iwai said in Love Letter, 'Happiness is having someone to miss,' I don't agree. Happiness is only when you truly possess something."

Even ten days without seeing me will make me miss you; it will feel like an eternity, more than two years. I will think of you under the moonlight, I will secretly think of you in the dead of night when no one is around, I will think of you at the break of dawn. I will become a stone in front of a clock face.

"A stone in front of the clock face?"

Have you heard the story of the Waiting-for-Husband Stone? I am the Waiting-for-Wife Stone.

"Why do you secretly think of me in the dead of night when no one is around? Are you worried that if you think of me openly, will Takanashi and Sue get angry?" Chiyo asked with a smile.

"Cough...cough...!" Shiraishi Zexiu nearly choked on his rice, pounding his chest as he glanced at her helplessly.

"I want to, I will definitely want to openly and honestly, no! If anyone wants to, I will boldly embrace you in the dead of night when no one is around! I want to possess you!" Shiraishi Zexiu said with difficulty while coughing.

A few grains of rice flew out of her mouth and landed in front of Chiyo's plate.

"Sorry." Shiraishi Zexiu awkwardly picked it up and put it back on his trash can. To prevent this from happening again, he deliberately kept his mouth shut, and his voice was somewhat muffled.

But the result was quite comical. Chiyo couldn't help but laugh, covering her mouth and her shoulders began to tremble.

"If you don't cover your mouth, you'll definitely laugh your rice out too." After chewing and swallowing all the food in his mouth, Shiraishi Sawa said with his hands crossed, looking unconvinced.

The laughter gradually subsided, and Chiyo slowly chewed her food on her plate. After a long while, she looked up, still smiling, "I'm not covering my mouth when I talk anymore, and I didn't spit out my food either."

"You're so silly. You didn't even realize the food was stuck to your face." He reached out and poked Chiyo's pink lips, then picked up a grain of rice from her lips and put it in his own mouth.

Chiyo was not stopped at all upon entering. Only after Shiraishi Sawa deliberately made exaggerated chewing and swallowing movements in front of her did she ask, "Is it delicious?"

"good smell."

Shiraishi Sawa nodded, then picked up a grain of rice from the plate in front of him and stuck it on his face in front of Ichiyo.

"Are you sick?" Chiyo laughed and scolded.

"What's wrong?" Shiraishi Zexiu asked, his eyes wide and his face full of innocence.

"It's nothing." Suppressing a laugh, Chiyo shook her head.

"Oh, oh." Shiraishi Zexiu lowered his head and ate his meal as if nothing had happened.

"There's a grain of rice on your lips." Because a smile was welling up again, Chiyo didn't dare to continue eating. She said.

"Is that so? Let me see where it is."

So Shiraishi Sawa touched his cheeks, nose, chin, forehead, and even the top of his head with both hands—but he didn't touch the area where the rice was stuck to his face at all.

"No?"

"Sigh—" Because of the laughter, her sigh trembled slightly. Chiyo reached out and picked a grain of rice from Shiraishi Sawa's smiling face.

Then, to Shiraishi Zexiu's incredulous gaze, it was placed on the trash can.

"You're wasting food!" he exclaimed angrily.

"Yeah, what's wrong? I'm a young lady from a wealthy family, I'm happy to do it." She was very pleased.

Shiraishi Sawa shook his head and stopped talking. He decided to protest this unreasonable behavior with his actions—he picked up a grain of rice and stuck it on his face again.

"Then you can just get through the day with this grain of rice on your head."

“No problem, please trust me.” Shiraishi Zexiu gave her an 'OK' sign.

"I just realized that I could actually believe you would do something so childish..." Chiyo covered her face in exasperation.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of losing face."

"I'm scared!" The girl was defeated, and she accepted her defeat wholeheartedly. This time, the rice she had picked finally reached the lips of its original owner, who had always longed for it.

"Is it tasty?"

"It smells delicious, are you satisfied?" Chiyo rubbed her cheeks, which were a little sore from laughing throughout lunch.

"You're content and your life is complete. Would you like me to massage you?" Shiraishi Zexiu asked helpfully.

"There are too many people, so let's skip it."

"Okay, I understand. So when there are fewer people around, you owe me a chance to rub your face."

"It's a shame you're not in business." Chiyo Ichiro said, taking a sip of soup.

"It's no pity for the future president's wife, because I'm here today to learn how to do business."

"A good future president."
