Chapter 1331
At this time, at Aurous International Hotel, Ito Nanako brought her assistant and a few maids that she had brought from home with her as she returned to her hotel room after leaving the stadium.The Ito family had booked the only two presidential suites available at Aurous International Hotel a long time in advance because Nanako would be coming to Aurous Hill this time.Amongst those two presidential suites, Nanako would be staying in one of the presidential suites by herself. Meanwhile, her coach, assistant, and subordinates would be staying in the other presidential suite. The Ito family had also sent someone to Aurous Hill as early as half a month ago just to transform one of the bedrooms in the presidential suite that Nanako would be staying in into her own exclusive training room.It was said that the renovation fee alone had cost millions of dollars. If the price of the long-term rental of these two presidential suites were included in the cost, then the Ito family would ha

Hiroshi replied embarrassedly, “Miss, the chairman really attaches great importance to the collaboration with Kobayashi Pharma. So, please do not be so stubborn and wilful…”Nanako replied lightly, “I’m sorry, Tanaka-san. I want to continue training now.”After that, Nanako hung up the phone directly.Nanako was twenty-two years old this year and she was a senior at the University of Tokyo, which was the top university in Japan. She was a very simple and innocent person, and her gentle and quiet temperament and personality also brought about a bit of inherent coldness and indifference.She was the most beautiful girl for four continuous years in the University of Tokyo. Besides that, many top families in Japan were also competing for Nanako to become their daughter-in-law as she was the best and most preferred candidate. However, Nanako was actually just a simple and innocent girl who loved combat and fighting.She did not understand the relationship between men and women, and she

As soon as Hiroshi heard this, he hurriedly blurted out, “Chairman, you can rest assured that I would never reveal anything you say to me to anyone.”Yahiko replied in satisfaction, “Kobayashi Pharma is currently producing a type of stomach powder that has excellent efficacy and the sales of this medication is very good. Moreover, it’s actively expanding in the global market. Nowadays, people would usually encounter some form of stomach upset. Therefore, the market for this kind of medication is very wide. As soon as this drug is launched globally, then the annual profits will definitely reach at least tens of billions of dollars.”Hiroshi exclaimed, “There’s such a big market just for stomach medicine?”Yahiko replied, “This is just my preliminary estimation. I’ve already asked the pharmaceutical laboratory in the University of Tokyo to analyze and compare Kobayashi Pharma’s stomach powder with the stomach medicine produced by several other companies on the market. In the final con

“That’s great!” Yahiko replied approvingly. “It’s as expected of the daughter of the Ito family. You aren’t arrogant or impetuous and you did not forget your original goal!”Although Nanako was speaking to her father over the phone, she subconsciously bowed slightly towards the east as she said respectfully, “Thank you for your praise, Eminent Father! I will continue to work hard!”Yahiko hummed before he said, “By the way, Nanako, did the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma, Kobayashi Jiro, go over there and ask to see you?”“Yes, Eminent Father!”Yahiko replied, “You are not young anymore. You should not continue staying away from the opposite sex all the time. I have made contact with this young man, Jiro, before. He is only two years older than you and he is a very promising young man. It isn’t a bad idea for you to have more contact with him in the future.”Nanako hurriedly replied, “Eminent Father, I do not have any thoughts about the affairs and relationship between men and women

When Yahiko heard Nanako’s promise, his voice softened slightly as he asked, “Nanako, have you eaten your lunch yet?”Nanako replied truthfully, “Eminent Father, I continued training after returning from the stadium so I have not eaten lunch yet.”Yahiko hummed as he said, “That’s good. Since it is also noon now, I think you should just ask Jiro to stay and have lunch with you then. That way, you would have already done your best to serve and entertain him on behalf of your father.”“Ask him to stay for lunch?”Nanako could not help but feel a little reluctant.She had always had a relatively cold personality. When her family was teaching her feminine etiquette, she had always been asked to maintain a sufficient distance from men outside. In addition, Nanako had been obsessed with combat and fighting for many years. Therefore, she did not have much contact with men at all.Aside from her own family members, Nanako had never dined privately with any young men although she was alre

After that, Jiro sighed again with deep annoyance as he said regretfully, “I’ve just arrived at Aurous Hill this morning. I came here directly immediately after completing the immigration procedures. I did not make it in time to go to the stadium to watch your match today, Miss Ito. I heard that you defeated your opponent in just one round today. I feel really regretful that I was not able to watch the match!”Nanako replied, “Mr. Kobayashi, you’re too kind.”“From now on, I’ll definitely be there to cheer for you in every single one of your matches, Miss Ito!”“To be honest, my Kobayashi Pharma sponsored this combat and fighting championship. When the time comes, I will be presenting the trophies to the winners of the championship. I can’t wait and I am already looking forward to the finals, where I will be presenting the champion’s trophy to you, Miss Ito!”Nanako replied humbly, “Mr. Kobayashi, before the competition is over, no one knows for certain who will win the championshi

Nanako did not expect to hear that Jiro’s brother had actually died in Aurous Hill. She felt a little embarrassed and thus, hurriedly said, “Sorry, Mr. Kobayashi. I had accidentally mentioned and reminded you of your painful memory.”Jiro hurriedly waved his hand before he said seriously, “It doesn’t matter. Although this is a very depressing matter, Miss Ito, you are not an outsider to me after all. I can also relieve some of my sadness and grievances by telling you about it too…”In fact, Jiro was not sad at all when he thought about his brother, Ichiro. On the contrary, he was actually very happy.The idea of the eldest son inheriting the family business had always been deeply ingrained in the mind of the Japanese.No matter how big or powerful a family was, the eldest son would always inherit the family business eventually. Even if the eldest son’s ability was not as good as the second son or the other sons’, he would still end up as the head of the family and his more capable

Jiro did not give up. Instead, he continued asking, “Then, why don’t you give it some thoughts now? What kind of man would be able to meet your criteria and standards?”Nanako thought carefully before she said, “First of all, the main criterion is that he would have to be better than me!”“Better than you? In what sense? In his career? Education? Or his achievements?”Nanako replied seriously, “He would have to be better and stronger than me in terms of his combat and fighting skills! I do not want to find a man who would not be able to defeat me in the future.”Jiro coughed awkwardly as he thought to himself, ‘Although Nanako looks like a quiet person, she’s actually a rather competitive person.’It would be fine if she enjoyed combat and fighting and wanted to pursue combat and fighting on her own. However, why would she have to look for a man who is stronger and more capable compared to her when it came to love?After all, he was a physically weak person who lacked strength. W
