The atmosphere in the restaurant became even warmer amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, with soft music playing in the background.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on the dining table, adding warmth and comfort to the entire meal.

Breakfast time passed slowly amidst pleasant conversation, and they savored this rare moment of intimacy.

Finally, Kitahara Makoto, Sakurajima Mai, and Xiaoyue cleaned up the tableware and prepared to leave the restaurant.

Before leaving, Kitahara Makoto made sure to thank the waiter:

"Thank you for your warm service, the breakfast was really delicious."

After leaving Futing, Kitahara Makoto drove the car, with Sakurajima Mai and Xiaoyue sitting inside. The car was filled with a warm atmosphere.

Kitahara Makoto looked at the road ahead, but couldn't help but start thinking about the work that was about to begin.

He sighed softly, breaking the silence in the carriage.

"Mai, I have to go to the company later. I have a lot of things to take care of."

Kitahara Makoto's words carried a hint of helplessness. He turned to look at Sakurajima Mai, his eyes filled with apology.

Mai Sakurajima responded with a smile:

"Go ahead, work is important. Xiaoyue and I will be fine on our own, you don't need to worry about us."

Her smile was warm and understanding, like a ray of sunshine falling on Kitahara Makoto's heart.

Kitahara nodded gratefully and continued:

"Okay, when I get to the company, you can drive my car around. But be careful, okay? Don't worry me."

His tone was full of concern and admonition.

Mai Sakurajima chuckled mischievously and replied:

"I know, I'm the Akina Mountain racing god, hehe."

Her words revealed a hint of confidence and playfulness, which made Kitahara Makoto smile. The atmosphere in the carriage became relaxed and pleasant once again.

Shortly after, the car arrived at Kitahara Makoto's company.

After parking the car, Kitahara Makoto turned around and looked at Sakurajima Mai and Xiaoyue.

His eyes were filled with tenderness and reluctance:

"My darlings, I'm going to work now. Have fun!"

Mai Sakurajima smiled and nodded, then got out of the car with Yue.

Kitahara Shinya got out of the car, walked around to the other side, and watched as Sakurajima Mai sat in the driver's seat.

Their eyes met, and the world seemed to stand still for a moment.

Kitahara Shin gently cupped Sakurajima Mai's face and kissed her forehead tenderly.

"Be careful, baby, don't make me worry."

His voice was deep and powerful, filled with concern and love for Mai Sakurajima.

Mai Sakurajima blushed, glared at you, and then turned her head away, pretending to be angry.

"You too, everything goes well."

Her words carried a hint of coquettishness and reluctance, as if she were blaming Kitahara Makoto for leaving the two of them.

But in reality, she fully understands and supports Kitahara Makoto's work.

After all, as a member of the family, she also hoped that Kitahara Makoto could achieve something in his career.

The two hugged tightly for a while before reluctantly parting. Kitahara Makoto stood outside the car, watching Sakurajima Mai start the car and slowly drive away from the company.

His eyes were filled with concern and blessings for the mother and daughter.

Kitahara Makoto watched as Sakurajima Mai and Xiaoyue's car drove away, his heart filled with reluctance but even more so with blessings and longing for his family.

He took a deep breath, straightened his suit, and turned to walk into the company.

Upon entering the company lobby, one is greeted by a busy yet orderly work atmosphere.

The receptionist smiled and nodded at him, while his colleagues around him also turned to look.

Kitahara Makoto responded with a smile and walked steadily toward his office.

"Good morning, Mr. Kitahara!"

A young employee passed by, saw Kitahara Makoto, and immediately stopped to greet him respectfully.

Kitahara Makoto smiled and nodded in response:

Good morning, Xiao Li. How was your workday?

His words were full of care and kindness, which made the employees feel warm and encouraged.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li's face broke into a bright smile:

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Kitahara. Everything went very smoothly. With your guidance and support, our team is very confident in completing today's task."

Kitahara patted Lee on the shoulder and encouraged him:

"Very good, keep up this spirit. If you encounter any difficulties or problems, feel free to come to me."

Xiao Li nodded gratefully and continued to immerse himself in his work.

Kitahara Masanori continued walking forward, occasionally greeting and exchanging a few words with passing employees.

His arrival filled the entire company with energy and enthusiasm, as if everyone was inspired and motivated by him.

Chapter 428 The Office's Secret Weapon: The Aroma of Coffee and the Capable Assistant

Kitahara Makoto walked into the office, and a faint aroma of wood and coffee wafted towards him, instantly invigorating him.

He casually draped his coat over the hanger, turned around, sat down at his desk, and turned on his computer.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the office door, which was then pushed open. Assistant Li Hua walked in with a smile, carrying a freshly brewed cup of coffee.

The aroma of coffee instantly filled the entire office, making everyone feel refreshed.

"Mr. Kitahara, this is your favorite latte - I made it especially for you."

As Li Hua spoke, he gently placed the coffee cup on the table in front of Kitahara-Makoto.

Kitahara Shin raised his head, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes. He smiled and nodded, saying:

"Thank you, Li Hua. You're always so thoughtful."

Li Hua smiled and stood aside, ready to begin her work report. Her face was neat, and her eyes revealed competence and confidence.

She cleared her throat lightly and began to speak:

"Mr. Kitahara, the company's overall operations have been good recently. We have successfully signed several important contracts, and the development of new products is also progressing steadily."

Kitahara Makoto listened while flipping through the documents on the table.

His brow furrowed at times and relaxed at others, as if he were deeply considering and evaluating every decision and development of the company.

Li Hua continued:

"In addition, our sales team has performed exceptionally well, recently completing a series of sales targets."

"And customer satisfaction is also constantly improving. These are the results of our joint efforts."

Kitahara Makoto nodded in agreement. He looked up at Li Hua, his eyes revealing satisfaction and approval.

He said:

“Very good, Li Hua. You have done an excellent job. These achievements are inseparable from your hard work and the team’s cooperation.”

Upon hearing this, Li Hua smiled happily. She humbly said:

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Kitahara. It's my duty. Next, I'd like to brief you on some recent market developments and the situation of our competitors."

Kitahara Makoto nodded, signaling her to continue. Li Hua then began to give a detailed report on the market and competitors.

She analyzed the current market trends and changes, pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of competitors, and offered her own suggestions and countermeasures.

Kitahara listened very attentively, nodding occasionally and asking questions or offering opinions at other times.

The conversation between the two was very smooth and efficient, as if they had already developed a tacit understanding.

........

Around 10 a.m., Kitahara Makoto's office door was knocked on again, this time with a more formal and urgent sound.

He looked up at the doorway and saw his secretary, Xiao Yang, leading two visitors into the office.

.....................

The two visitors were Shi Hao, CEO of Topbee Technology, and Liu Ruyu, their chief negotiator.

Shi Hao is tall and his sharp suit makes him look particularly energetic.

His face was resolute, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable confidence and decisiveness.

His hair was combed neatly, and every strand seemed to demonstrate his meticulousness and focus.

Liu Ruyu, on the other hand, was completely different from Shi Hao. She wore an elegant cheongsam, with a graceful figure and charming demeanor.

Her face was beautiful and refined, and her bright eyes sparkled with wisdom.

A smile always graced her lips, giving off a friendly and warm feeling.

Her every move exudes a blend of feminine grace and strength.

Chapter 429 Peak Technology Shi Hao

"Mr. Kitahara, these two are Mr. Shi Hao, CEO of Topbee Technology, and Ms. Liu Ruyu, Chief Negotiator."

Xiao Yang introduced Kitahara Makoto.

Kitahara Makoto immediately stood up and warmly extended his hand to shake hands with the two visitors. He smiled and said:

"Welcome, Mr. Shi Hao and Ms. Liu Ruyu. We have long admired your work. Thank you for taking the time to visit our company."

Shi Hao and Liu Ruyu responded with smiles, their expressions revealing their respect and admiration for Kitahara Makoto.

Afterwards, the group sat down and began to get down to business.

Shi Hao spoke first, elaborating on TopBee Technology's core technologies and market advantages, as well as their vision for cooperation with Kitahara Makoto's company.

His words were filled with high hopes for future cooperation, and every word revealed how much he valued this collaboration.

"Mr. Kitahara, our Topbee Technology has leading technical strength and market influence in the field of intelligent technology."

"We believe that by cooperating with your company, we can combine our respective strengths and jointly explore a broader market."

Shi Hao's tone was firm and confident.

Kitahara Shin nodded slightly, listening attentively to Shi Hao's speech while also considering how to respond better.

He knew that this collaboration was of great significance to both parties, as it would not only improve the company's technological capabilities but also expand its market share.

"Mr. Shi Hao, I completely agree with your point of view."

Kitahara Makoto responded with a smile.

"Our company has always been committed to innovation and development, and we pay close attention to the field of intelligent technology."

"I believe that through our cooperation, we will definitely achieve greater success."

Next, Liu Ruyu began to explain the specific cooperation plan in detail.

She detailed the steps, timeline, and expected outcomes of the collaboration, taking every detail very seriously.

Her words were clear and powerful, filling people with confidence in the prospects of cooperation.

While listening to Liu Ruyu's introduction, Kitahara Makoto silently assessed the feasibility and potential of this cooperation plan in his mind.

He nodded in agreement at times, and at other times raised questions or suggestions, engaging in in-depth exchanges and discussions with Liu Ruyu.

"Ms. Liu, I am very interested in the cooperation proposal you have put forward..."

Kitahara Makoto said,

"However, I think we still need to discuss some details, such as technical integration, staffing, and risk control."
