After Cao Zhiqiang came out of the bathroom, he suddenly saw a stranger and was startled.

Just when Cao Zhiqiang was in shock, the young man in a suit and leather shoes had already stood up, bowed to Cao Zhiqiang politely, and then said sincerely: "Hi, Teacher Cao, do you still remember me?

I am Yuno Watanabe from Kodansha."

Only then did Cao Zhiqiang react: "Oh, yes, yes, you are the young editor of Kodansha. Hello, hello."

"Hi, that's right." Watanabe Yuno smiled and bowed again, "I'm really intruding you by taking the liberty of visiting."

"It's okay, it's okay." Cao Zhiqiang waved his hands with a smile, "I just saw someone else at home suddenly, and I was a little surprised. Please sit down."

After Watanabe Yuno sat down, Cao Zhiqiang also sat down opposite him.

At this moment, Akina Nakamori suddenly trotted over and said in a hurry: "Ah, I'm really sorry, look at me, I'm so busy. I just arranged flowers here and there was a bit of a mess on the table. Why don't you go to the sofa?"

Let’s talk there, I’ll clean up first.”

Watanabe Yuno looked at the pile of flower branches and tools on the table, and smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that you just realized that something was wrong when I sat down just now.

Although he thought so, as a guest, Watanabe Yuno naturally couldn't say that, so he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it's very nice here."

"No, no, no." Akina Nakamori shook her head, "You guys go sit on the sofa. I'll tidy up a little. I'll be fine in a while."

Cao Zhiqiang laughed and stood up proactively and said: "Okay, Watanabe-san, let's listen to Akina-san. Go over there and chat. This is also a form of respect, what do you think?"

"Hey." Yuno Watanabe stood up, "That would be disrespectful."

As soon as Watanabe Yuno and Cao Zhiqiang arrived at the sofa and sat down, Nakamori Akina brought a tea tray over.

On the tea tray were two cups of steaming and fragrant freshly ground black coffee, plus a small plate of sugar cubes and a small pot of milk.

In fact, if there was only Cao Zhiqiang, these would not be on the tea tray, because Cao Zhiqiang likes to drink black coffee, which means only coffee and nothing else.

Nakamori Akina didn't drink black coffee in the past, but because Cao Zhiqiang likes to drink black coffee, and the coffee beans prepared by Cao Zhiqiang are of the highest quality, they are very fragrant without adding other ingredients. In addition, Cao Zhiqiang also said that drinking black coffee will help you lose weight.

, adding milk and sugar will make you gain weight, so she also fell in love with pure black coffee.

But now because there is an extra Yuno Watanabe, there are more sugar cubes and milk in the tea tray.

Akina Nakamori put down the tea tray and smiled at Yuno Watanabe and said: "Mr. Watanabe, please have some coffee."

"Ah, thank you." Watanabe Yuno was flattered, "Akina-chan, no, Akina-san, thank you for your hospitality."

"Haha, you're welcome." Akina Nakamori covered her mouth and smiled softly, showing her gentleness, just like what people expect from a Japanese wife.

In fact, the legend of Japanese wives has spread all over the world at this time. Not only in China, it is said that Japanese wives are the most virtuous and the most caring, but this legend is also found in Europe and the United States.

But in fact, this is not always the case, at least in Japan in the 1980s, this was no longer the case.

Because in the 1980s, Japan's economy had been booming for a long time, and the Japanese government had introduced a series of protection policies for women, and a large number of female jobs had emerged, which led to a large number of Japanese women taking up jobs. Therefore, in the 1980s

By that time, the status of Japanese women had been greatly improved.

As the status of Japanese women improves, especially as a large number of Japanese women enter the workforce, Japanese women naturally begin to pursue more power.

Although there has not yet been a saying that a Japanese woman should have four boyfriends during this period, the number of traditional Japanese wives has actually been greatly reduced.

The reason is also very simple. The legendary Japanese wives do not work at all and are completely dependent on their husbands for life.

But if a Japanese woman can work and have her own income, why should she have to serve her husband like an uncle after work is over? This doesn't make sense.

Of course, tradition is still very important, especially women who are in love, usually pick up Japanese traditions to please their men.

For example, the current Akina Nakamori, her gentleness, consideration and virtuousness were mostly learned by herself later on, and she was only like this towards Cao Zhiqiang.

To put it bluntly, Akina Nakamori doesn't really like to serve others. She is actually very lazy and doesn't like to clean up the house. This was known from the last time Cao Zhiqiang went to her house.

Cao Zhiqiang had been to Nakamori Akina's house last night and knew that her house was full of messes. Although it couldn't be said to be a garbage dump, she was obviously not a girl who liked to clean up her house.

But for such a woman who didn't like to clean up the house and was even a bit lazy, after she came to Cao Zhiqiang's house, she suddenly seemed like a different person. Not only could she do housework, but she also learned how to arrange flowers, no, do ikebana.

So, love can really change a person.

As long as you like someone and want to win their favor, you can really change anything and do anything for that person.

Obviously, Akina Nakamori is such a love brain. As long as the person she likes likes her, she can do anything, even in various shy positions, she will not refuse anyone who comes.

Ahem, of course, Cao Zhiqiang is not that perverted about the shy posture, and he did not force Akina Nakamori to do anything.

In fact, the so-called various postures were secretly learned by Akina Nakamori from others in order to please Cao Zhiqiang and win Cao Zhiqiang's heart.

As for who she learned it from, I don’t know, but it seems that she learned it from her senior female colleague.

Well, I can only say that people in the Japanese entertainment industry are really messed up!

But Cao Zhiqiang also really likes this kind of chaos, after all, he really enjoys it.

I've gone too far.

In short, no one is born to be a Japanese wife. The emergence of this type of Japanese wife is ultimately caused by the general environment.

Japan has gradually lost the environment for producing Japanese wives, so the current Japanese wives are more of a Japanese label and culture.

Of course, it’s not impossible to have a real Japanese wife, but unless you are extremely rich, extremely powerful, or a love brain like Akina Nakamori, and meet a man you particularly like, and take the initiative to be a Japanese wife to please him,

Otherwise, few women would be happy to be Japanese wives.

After Nakamori Akina left with a smile, Watanabe Yuno looked at Cao Zhiqiang who was drinking coffee by himself. He did not go to get his own coffee, but first sighed: "Cao Sang, you are such a happy person.

I'm so jealous of you."

"Huh?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, put down his coffee cup, and looked at Yuno Watanabe in surprise, "Jealous of me? What do you mean?"

Watanabe Yuno made an exaggerated expression: "Wow, you still ask me why? You still have such a puzzled face? You didn't mean it, right?"

"What's intentional?" Cao Zhiqiang frowned, "I really don't understand what you're talking about."

Watanabe Yuno then shook his head: "Akina-san, that's Akina-san, the popular idol Akina-san, right?"

Cao Zhiqiang blinked: "Ah, her current occupation is indeed an idol singer, so what?"

Watanabe Yuno once again exaggerated: "So what? Do you know how many people like Akina-chan? Even I am a fan of Akina-chan!

We all thought that Akina-chan was still a single girl, but we didn’t expect that she already had a boyfriend, and they were living together, and he was also someone I knew?

How can you repair it! Oh, you are going to be so jealous of me!

If it weren't for the modern society, I would really want to duel with you!"

Cao Zhiqiang was speechless for a while. He didn't expect that this editor was actually a funny guy.

But yes, Japanese young people in the 1980s do seem to be a bit funny, and they do have a nonsensical culture.

In fact, when Eastern civilization reaches a certain stage of economic development, most cities will experience some nonsensical cultures, such as Japan and Hong Kong at this time, and South Korea and the mainland two thousand years later.

Especially Japan, because it is a big country of comics, this kind of funny and nonsensical culture developed earlier.

The so-called two-dimensional literature and subculture actually originated in Japan in 1979.

It's just that this kind of culture really took off only after the 1990s. In fact, there weren't many people who could be so funny in the early 1980s.

Well, but considering that Watanabe Yuno is a top student at Tokyo University, oh, that doesn't matter.

In Japanese legend, the tyrant of Tohoku University is somewhat mentally disturbed.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang laughed: "I understand, but Mr. Duan Bian, there is no need to be jealous or not.

You have to know that idols are also people, not machines, let alone characters in comics.

Everything an idol performs on stage is just a pre-set character. Just like an actor's acting, it is a job and should not be taken seriously.

But in private life, idols also need to live their own lives and have their own joys and sorrows.

So, this kind of thing is like drinking water and knowing whether it is warm or cold.

If you really like Akina, then you should bless her and keep her secret strictly so as not to cause trouble to her.

Otherwise, you are just a selfish dark desire, and there is no real love at all, are you right?"

Cao Zhiqiang’s chicken soup for the soul output, if you replace it with someone from 2023, it will not work, and you will be automatically immune.

But when faced with Yuno Watanabe, the dominant player of Tokyo University in 1983, this chicken soup routine still worked very well.

Sure enough, he immediately nodded with concern: "That's right, I think so too, so don't worry, no matter what the reason is, for Akina-chan's happiness, I will definitely keep it secret and never tell anyone.

, please believe me."

"Well, I believe you." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, and then said, "So, you didn't come here just to follow Mingcai when you found this place, right?"

"Ah, of course not!" Yuno Watanabe waved his hand quickly, "No, no, absolutely not, I am not that kind of person!"

"Then why are you here..." Cao Zhiqiang deliberately frowned.

"I'm here to see you, Teacher Cao!" Watanabe Yuno said quickly.

Immediately afterwards, Watanabe Yuno said quickly: "That's it. I thought the "Norwegian Wood" you submitted to me was very good, and then I gave it to our editor for review. He also thought it was okay, so I have decided to officially publish your book.

novel.

By the way, because you submitted this manuscript to me, our editor-in-chief has said that I will be solely responsible for the publication of this novel."

Having said this, Watanabe Yuno picked up the briefcase, took out a document and a pen, handed it over together and said: "This, Teacher Cao, this is the contract document, please see if there is anything inappropriate.
