Chapter 200 The Little Princess of the Ishizawa Family
"It's not convenient or inconvenient. It's going to happen sooner or later anyway."
"Right?"
Naoto Esaki smiled slightly.
The other party seemed to know more than he let on.
But it's true. Ezaki Suguha had used his connections to get Mine Shiori into Kodansha.
This shows that Naoto Ezaki should also be paying attention to the internal situation of the Otowa Group, so it is only natural that he would notice the existence of Sawayama Haruno.
The only thing Naoto Ezaki might not know is that he actually has another girlfriend.
Um.
The other party might not know that his relationship with Suguha had advanced by leaps and bounds in the past few days.
Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno felt inexplicably guilty.
After coughing twice, he said solemnly: "Then I'll leave it to Senior Jiang Qi."
"Just call me Naoto."
Naoto Ezaki said casually.
He wanted to say something, but at this moment someone came over with a glass of wine.
Seeing this, he nodded slightly apologetically to Sawayama Haruno, who also tacitly stepped back and took the initiative to give up his seat so that they could continue chatting.
Things have made satisfactory progress, and Sawayama Haruno is in an extremely happy mood at the moment.
This time, I not only received recognition from the Ishizawa family and the group, but also saw hope in solving the problems of the Ezaki family.
It can be said that it was a dinner with great harvest.
After putting all his worries aside, Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but feel a little leisurely, so he started to walk around the villa with a glass of wine in hand.
In addition to the banquet hall, there seems to be a back garden as you continue walking back, and the garden is connected to other places inside the manor.
Taking advantage of the time when no one was disturbing him, Sawayama Haruno took a look around.
It has to be said that the manor used by the Ishizawa family to entertain distinguished guests is so luxurious that it is unimaginable.
Even Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but feel moved after seeing the luxurious interior decoration.
He was now standing on the corridor facing the back garden, examining a piece of brightly colored porcelain.
"Pearl-colored celadon is said to be a type of porcelain that was brought in from overseas during the Song Dynasty."
I don't know when a slightly short and flat girl appeared next to me.
She was also staring at the exquisite porcelain in front of her, muttering: "The ancient Chinese porcelain technology is really amazing. Have you ever heard of it?"
Of course, Sawayama Haruno thought.
Although I don't have a very thorough understanding of it, when I was in junior high school, I had to memorize the history of the Song Dynasty in history class, which included a lot of knowledge points about the development of the porcelain industry in the Song Dynasty.
Ever since he obtained "organ strengthening", his memory has improved and his memory of past events has become clearer.
I think you can fool the other person by just quoting a few knowledge points from the textbook.
However, Zeshan Haruno did not do so, but instead asked: "Is this the real thing?"
"Of course it's genuine. It's very expensive. I bought it from an auction."
Ishizawa Kaori paused for a moment and said leisurely, "The Song Dynasty had a developed maritime industry at that time, and there were many of their porcelains circulating between the peninsula and the island countries. This is one of the rare treasures that has been preserved."
"Besides that, most of the ones circulating in the market are actually just some of the manufacturing techniques used to forge fakes. Of course, in front of real experts, the flaws will be revealed at a glance."
"You know a lot about it." Sawayama Haruno stroked his chin and said casually, "Do you like porcelain very much?"
"It's not that I like porcelain, it's that I like this culture."
Ishizawa Kaori corrected, "It's not just porcelain that is collected by our family, there are many other things as well. If I have the chance, I would like to go and take a look."
"Yeah."
Sawayama Haruno shrugged.
Children from rich families are just great. While other children of the same age are still eating, drinking and having fun all day, children from rich families have already started thinking about how to see the world.
The world is indeed very different, but it is also true that the other party is the little princess of the Ishizawa family after all.
Um.
He has already guessed the other party's identity.
It was so easy to guess. The other person looked like a junior high school student, which was exactly the same as the information Miss Morikawa had told him before.
What he didn't expect was that the other party would actually come forward and talk to him.
As if she noticed his gaze, Ishizawa Kaori turned around and said with a smile: "I have also read the book written by the teacher. It is very well written."
"You're too kind." Sawayama Haruno said casually.
You really can see into it.
A book that's almost indistinguishable from pornographic books might not be suitable for a girl of your age, right?
While thinking this, the other party's next words made Sawayama Haruno confused on the spot.
Ishizawa Kaori asked with a little curiosity: "Is there a more in-depth version?"
".?"
The corner of Sawayama Haruno's eye twitched slightly.
Is that the more profound version?
That's what I mean.
"Sorry, this is the first draft. Of course, there were previous drafts that might be rougher than this one. Do you want to see it?"
"That's it."
Ishizawa Kaori wrinkled her nose and became a little depressed.
"You are very suitable for writing this kind of thing. No, this is my first time reading it too." She thought for a moment and added, "But your writing is very comfortable to read, so if there is a chance, you can actually add more descriptions."
".If you write too much, it will cause problems, right?"
"Don't worry, this is all literature." Kaori Ishizawa said confidently.
Just kidding, what's the problem?
Even if there is a problem, isn't it just up to her Ishizawa family to give a heads up?
I hope Mr. Kiriyama can understand my hint quickly, and start writing a new version tonight.
Thinking of this, Ishizawa Kaori's face gradually became a little strange. Fortunately, before the two of them had time to talk, Morikawa Riho had already returned.
"Hey, is Kiriyama-sensei here?"
She walked into the corridor in her high heels and asked curiously, "Why are you here? I was looking for it for a long time just now."
“I chatted with someone for a while.”
Sawayama Haruno subconsciously glanced at the junior high school girl next to him, only to find that she had sneaked away at some point.
It seems that he doesn't want to have too much contact with Riho Morikawa.
Yes, considering the other party's status and position, it would probably be troublesome to come into contact with someone like Morikawa Riho.
After all, too many people want to get close to the Ishizawa family, so it's normal not to want to meet irrelevant people.
Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno decided to change the subject and asked casually, "Are you done talking, Ms. Morikawa?"
"Ah."
Morikawa Riho quickly gave an embarrassed smile.
"Imai-senpai was a little too enthusiastic. He even dragged me to say hello to other seniors in the industry."
Although she said that it was a bit troublesome, Morikawa Riho was actually very happy in her heart.
Coming to this dinner will be of great help to her future career. Not only will her status in the company be improved, but she will also get to know so many seniors in the industry and gain network resources.
All of this is thanks to this young man who has not yet published a book, but whose book is already a sure hit.
For a moment, the look she gave Sawayama Haruno became even more loving.
"What about you? Have you seen Shibata Shinkai or that new girl?"
"I didn't pay attention to it." Zeshan Haruno smiled and said leisurely, "But I did chat with another friend I know a little bit more just now."
"A friend you know?"
Morikawa Riho suddenly became curious.
"Does Kiriyama-sensei know anyone in the same industry?"
"No, he's not a writer, he's a businessman." Sawayama Haruno took a sip of champagne and added, "He's the current head of the Ezaki Group."
"He's here too?"
Upon hearing this, Morikawa Riho was stunned for a moment.
"Ms. Morikawa knows him too, right?"
"No, I can't say I know him, it's just that Otowa Group has also cooperated with Ezaki Group before."
Morikawa Riho blinked and said in confusion, "But it's a bit strange. The main industry of the Ezaki Group is not cultural. Why would they come to Kyoto to attend the Ishizawa family's dinner?"
"Who knows."
Sawayama Haruno said indifferently.
He also couldn't understand why Naoto Ezaki came to Kyoto.
Logically speaking, given his status, he would be very busy and it would be difficult for him to find time to watch his sister's game. He couldn't just come to Kyoto just to worry about his sister's safety.
But to be honest, he doesn't really care about these things.
As long as Suguha's troubles can be solved, he has no objection even if Naoto becomes the next leader.
Anyway, apart from the relationship with Suguha Esaki, their relationship is at most just friends.
"Speaking of which, Kiriyama-sensei"
Morikawa Riho stared at him and suddenly said.
"Didn't you say you weren't old enough to drink?"
Her eyes fell directly on the champagne in Zeshan Haruno's hand, her eyes meaningful.
The other party caught him red-handed.
However, Sawayama Haruno was not worried at all and explained cheekily, "Champagne is actually considered a sparkling drink, so it doesn't matter if you are not yet 20 years old."
"Mr. Kiriyama seems quite "rebellious" in this kind of situation."
Riho Morikawa made a few jokes.
She didn't hold the fact that the other party was drinking secretly accountable.
After all, after reading some descriptions in "Norwegian Wood", she knew that the other person's mind was much more mature than ordinary people, and she also knew that the other person was actually a lazy and unrestrained person.
This is also one of the reasons why people used to ask other people if they wanted to smoke on the Shinkansen.
But now it seems that Sawayama Haruno is actually quite normal, at least he doesn't have any major bad habits.
Considering his current identity as a writer, he can be said to be a very outstanding young man.
Morikawa Riho couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It was really amazing that the other party was only a freshman, but he could achieve this.
Why wasn’t there such an outstanding boy around me in the past?
Although I am not too old now, it is a pity that the other party already has a girlfriend.
Not only does he have a girlfriend, but even his rival, the eldest daughter from the Ezaki family, is lining up.
Even if you have some ideas in your heart, it is impossible to realize them.
After sighing inwardly, Morikawa Riho quickly covered her mouth and laughed, "The buffet over there in the lobby is ready. Do you want to go over and take a look, Mr. Kiriyama? I actually ate quite a few fruits before coming here."
"Then go over and take a look."
Sawayama Haruno drank the champagne in his hand and followed the other party slowly towards the banquet hall.
The following time became a bit boring.
People kept coming over to chat with Morikawa Riho, and it seemed that she was influenced by what happened just now with Senior Imai. Many people in the industry came over to say hello.
Sawayama Haruno just stood nearby, eating a couple of grapes and drinking some wine from time to time, watching them chat.
After noticing that he was getting a little bored, and chatting with others for a few more minutes, Morikawa Riho found a more tactful excuse, saying that she was a little tired, and took the opportunity to take Sawayama Haruno away with her.
