Although it was a delaying strategy, it was better to have a hope than no hope. Nishikawa Ryoko couldn't force it, so she could only nod and resign herself to fate.

Not long after, we chatted for a while again, because the agreed time had come, and the business meeting was officially over.

"Mr. Zero Hour, see you next time. I will definitely bring you a satisfactory contract next time."

When saying goodbye, Nishikawa Ryoko chuckled as she walked out of the office.

"Then I'll spare you the trouble."

Hearing her assurance, Kurosawa Hikaru returned the smile.

"You go back to the lounge and wait for a while. I'll see Miss Nishikawa off."

At the same time, Igarashi Runa sent her away.

Of course, it just needs to be delivered to the door. After all, the vice president of a listed company still drives when he goes out.

…

Going up to the lounge on the third floor, Kurosawa Hikaru sat down on the sofa and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"This negotiation went quite smoothly, thanks to a certain person's beauty."

Not long after, Igarashi Runa opened the door to the lounge and walked in.

"Stop talking, I'm exhausted."

Hearing her teasing, Kurosawa Hikaru sighed.

"Don't sigh, right? Isn't it a good thing that Miss Nishikawa likes you so much? It means you are popular."

Igarashi Runa couldn't help but snicker when she saw the way he sighed.

"Chatting with her is more tiring than me playing ten pieces of piano music." Kurosawa Hikaru said with a headache.

"Don't you like teasing girls? Don't you like being teased by girls?"

Seeing that he was very tired, Igarashi Runa walked to the table, picked up his cup, and went to pour water.

"It depends on the person. If a girl is as beautiful as you, I will definitely like her."

Seeing this thoughtful gesture, Kurosawa Hikaru looked at her graceful back and figure and changed the subject.

Although Miss Nishikawa is quite beautiful, it depends on who she is compared to.

"..."

When I walked to the water dispenser and was pouring water to clean the cups, Igarashi Runa couldn't help but stiffen when he heard this.

What is this? A confession? Or just a scene?

"You said I have a date for dinner later. Who do you want to eat with?"

Kurosawa Hikaru saw her stiff movements and realized that she didn't know how to respond to what he said, so he simply changed the subject.

"That's just a way to deal with Miss Nishikawa, can't you hear it?"

Igarashi Runa rolled her eyes at him.

"I thought I was really going to have dinner with someone."

Kurosawa Hikaru breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he knew that it was a shirk, just to divert her attention.

The time now is around 10 o'clock in the morning, which is still not suitable for romance.

"Are you afraid?"

Igarashi Runa felt very funny when she saw his look.

Representatives of partners like Ms. Nishikawa are already very easy to get along with.

"A little."

Kurosawa Hikaru is really scared. He doesn't even know that his beauty can be so lethal to a woman in her thirties. Is this a royal sister killer? Or a young woman killer?

"There are three more signing negotiations today, at 10:30, 1:30, and 3:30."

Igarashi Runa reminded leisurely.

Because Kurosawa has been very busy and has no time to show up, there are still a lot of things on hold.

Of the five projects initially selected, except for Tokyo Culture Tokyo, who had seen her act as Zero Hour's agent, they readily asked her to sign the contract as a representative. The other partners all wanted to see Zero Hour.

Only I am willing to sign the contract.

Work is not that simple, and wanting to make money is not that easy either.

"Will it be a boy or a girl later?"

"male."

"That's fine." Kurosawa Hikaru nodded.
