Chapter 166 She is indeed my daughter

In a hotel somewhere in Tokyo.

Li Qingwan paced in the room with a hint of nervousness on her face.

"What's wrong with you, Xiaowan?" Shiori Nanamiya stopped looking at the contract regarding Zhao Yu's song and looked up at Li Qingwan.

"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about me..." Li Qingwan answered casually, but her eyes were fixed on the open door of the room.

"Do you care about the person who is coming today?" asked Shiori Nanamiya.

It was yesterday that the contract was signed with Big Beard. The reason why the two were still in Tokyo was because Li Qingwan suddenly received a call from China.

Although she didn't hear the specific content of the call, Shiori Nanamiya roughly understood what was going on.

It seemed that some people were coming from China, so Li Qingwan stayed in Tokyo and waited for them to come.

And one of them might be Li Qingwan's acquaintance. After all, she reacted very strongly when she heard that person was coming.

"I don't really care, but...well, let me tell you the truth, the person who came is an old employee of my father. She has been with him since his company was founded. She is also the aunt who watched me grow up since I was a child." Li Qingwan stopped and spoke to Nanamiya Shiori.

"Auntie? In that case you should be very familiar with each other, so there's no need to be so nervous, right?" said Shiori Nanamiya.

"No, no, no, you don't understand..." Li Qingwan shook her head.

"Aunt Liu is a very old-fashioned person. After she came, I couldn't be so...relaxed."

Li Qingwan wanted to say "outrageous", but finally changed to a more euphemistic word.

The call in the morning was from her father. There was nothing else in the call, except telling Li Qingwan that the staff she needed had been found for her and that Aunt Liu had been sent over.

Aunt Liu was arranged by Li Qingwan's father after she founded the MCN. Although she usually doesn't take charge of things, her requirements on some small details often give Li Qingwan a headache.

"I just told my dad to find an operator who has managed internet celebrities before, but why did he call Aunt Liu over as well..." Thinking of this, Li Qingwan felt a headache.

"Oh? Miss really doesn't want me to come?" A mature female voice sounded behind Li Qingwan.

She slowly turned her head and found a woman in an OL uniform in front of her. She was holding a box in her hand and followed by two assistants, who were looking around the room with a calm gaze.

"Liu, Aunt Liu! You're here so soon?" Li Qingwan was a little at a loss.

"If you don't want me to come, why do you keep the door open?" Aunt Liu asked.

"No, no, how could I dare..." Li Qingwan smiled awkwardly.

"I'll get your luggage!"

Li Qingwan quickly trotted to Aunt Liu and dragged the suitcase in.

"This is the host I'm responsible for this time, right? What's your name?" Aunt Liu didn't continue the previous topic, but instead looked at Nanamiya Shiori.

"I'm Shiori Nanamiya, a student at Ochanomizu University." Shiori Nanamiya stood up and introduced herself to Aunt Liu in Chinese.

She is not as good as Yuka. After all this time, she has only learned this one sentence.

"Well, your image and temperament are very good. Your identity as a foreigner is also a plus." Aunt Liu responded to Nanamiya Shiori in English.

"Then let's discuss the contract..."

Half an hour later, under the gaze of Aunt Liu, Li Qingwan placed a freshly printed contract in front of Nanamiya Shiori.

"Let's temporarily set the contract period to three years. Later, I will ask professional analysts to determine which track you are suitable for. If the number of fans increases, the employee contract will become a cooperation contract like Yu Ge's."

The term of the contract was the result of Li Qingwan's careful consideration. Although Shiori Nanamiya and Yuka were good friends and had a good relationship with Li Qingwan, she would still be more cautious about business matters.

Qigong Shiori is different from Zhao Yu. Even if Li Qingwan doesn't sign, someone else will sign, and it is guaranteed that there will be no loss.

This girl is a complete novice in live streaming. The fact that she signed only a three-year contract was already a great favor to Youhua and Zhao Yu. If it were anyone else, they would have signed a ten-year contract now and raised the maximum penalty fee to make all the money.

"Thank you, I have no objection..." After reading the contract, Shiori Nanamiya nodded, picked up the pen and wrote her name.

"Now, I should be considered your real boss..." Li Qingwan smiled.

"Come on, give me a smile~"

"Miss, please restrain yourself..." Aunt Liu, who had been silent all this time, pushed her glasses and spoke softly.

Well, here it comes... Li Qingwan complained silently in her heart.

The so-called small details actually refer to these things. Since my father has little time to take care of me, most of the time it is Aunt Liu who picks me up and drops me off at school.

This meant that she was also the one who set some of the daily rules, so she paid great attention to Li Qingwan's behavior.

If Li Qingwan's father's company had not become busy when she was in college, she might have still been supervised by Aunt Liu while in college.

The reason why she did not find another operator to be responsible for Zhao Yu, but chose to be responsible for it herself, was actually because she was afraid of working with Aunt Liu.

But it seems that there is no way to escape this time. Aunt Liu was obviously only responsible for contacting a certain audio company before, so why did she come directly here... Li Qingwan still didn't understand.

Although her mind was full of thoughts, she spoke with a nonchalant look on her face.

"Tsk... What's the problem? I'm already her boss, eh? As a boss, she shouldn't refuse my small request, right?"

"Precisely because you are the boss, you should act like a boss. Unspoken rules in the workplace are not allowed." Aunt Liu continued.

"Brother Li will be unhappy if he finds out..."

The Brother Li she was referring to was Li Qingwan's father. Aunt Liu would usually report on Li Qingwan's performance from time to time.

"What kind of unspoken rule is this? It's just teasing!"

"You also know it's teasing?"

"Okay, okay, I'll pay attention...Aunt Liu." Li Qingwan could only nod in agreement.

If I continue arguing, Aunt Liu might really tell Dad, and it would be bad if I stopped receiving pocket money then.

"Well, that's good." Aunt Liu was satisfied and stopped talking.

"You want me to smile... is that so?"

Shiori Nanamiya on the side looked at the dejected Li Qingwan, thought for a moment, put her hands on both sides of her mouth, and forced a smile.

"Hehe, she did this voluntarily, right?" Li Qingwan smiled proudly at Aunt Liu.

"Shiori! You really are a good employee of mine! I'm going to give you a raise!"

"I can have such an easy job thanks to Xiaowan, so it's okay if it's just like this..." Nanamiya Shiori reached out and touched Li Qingwan's head.

Li Qingwan first subconsciously moved closer to Nanamiya Shiori and squinted her eyes in enjoyment, but she quickly reacted.

"I'm not a child anymore! You are not allowed to touch the boss's head!"

"Okay, I got it..." Shiori Nanamiya let go of her hand and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Looking at the interaction between the two, Aunt Liu showed a hint of surprise.

In the past two years, Tik Tok has been developing faster and faster. Her focus has been on cooperating with Tik Tok, and she has not paid much attention to Li Qingwan's movements.

Now that she was sent here, she discovered that the previously withdrawn young lady actually had real friends of the same age.

I should have put my affairs aside earlier, but this little girl doesn't seem to have any problems, so...what about Zhao Yu?

Aunt Liu recalled what her former boss said to her before she came to Tokyo.

"Xiao Wan seems to be a little too concerned about Zhao Yu. I'm afraid something might happen to her. Can you help me check it out..."

It is hard not to suspect that a celebrity who has a girlfriend and is so close to a young lady has ulterior motives...

Having seen too many internet celebrities who wanted to take shortcuts, Aunt Liu was well aware of this aspect. The reason why she came here so quickly was to investigate Zhao Yu.

As for Nanamiya Shiori? Anyway, it didn't cost much to sign her, so Li Qingwan let her sign if she liked it.

"Miss, where is the other anchor under you?" Aunt Liu asked.

"Brother Yu? He has been busy with other things recently, so he didn't come... We can see him when we return to Nara in a while." Li Qingwan said.

After signing Shiori Nanamiya, she did not plan to go back directly, but instead prepared to ask the operation department to plan the live broadcast content of Shiori Nanamiya and try it out once or twice in Tokyo first.

"Other things? Is there anything more important than song licensing?" Aunt Liu frowned.

This man seemed to be a hands-off boss, and he seemed to be more capable than he thought, otherwise he wouldn't let such a lazy girl like the eldest lady run around.

"Of course they're engaged! He and Youhua are almost together, and I don't want to disturb them." Li Qingwan said.

"Engaged?"

Shouldn't it be? If so, why would the eldest lady care so much about it? Hearing Li Qingwan's words, Aunt Liu was a little confused.

"You'll know when you get to Nara, Aunt Liu. Brother Yu is actually quite busy. He has been working hard to make the company develop better, but there are just too many things going on recently." Li Qingwan said.

"Then I'll wait and see..." Aunt Liu said.

Ding-ling-ling! A ring rang out and Li Qingwan picked up the phone. "What? Youhua is sick!" She asked in surprise.

!!! Hearing Li Qingwan's words, Qi Gong Shizhi stood up quickly.

"Let's stop the trial broadcast for now, and hurry back to Nara!" Li Qingwan and Nanamiya Shiori looked at each other and immediately started packing.

At the same time, the Ueno family.

Looking at Yuka lying on the bed, Sayuri showed a trace of heartache on her face.

She had imagined the scene of meeting Yuka again countless times in her mind, and had rehearsed how to apologize to Yuka countless times, but she never expected the situation to be like this now.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Sayuri, I didn't take good care of Yuhua." Zhao Yu on the side spoke in a dry voice.

"It's not your problem. You've done very well." Sayuri raised her head and said to Zhao Yu.

She had been watching the relationship between the two develop, so naturally she wouldn't want to blame Zhao Yu.

And as Masao Ueno just said, Zhao Yu even dared to kidnap the congressman for Yuka, which can be said to be very qualified.

"Yuka has always been like this. She never wants to tell anyone about anything that happens to her." Sayuri sighed.

Speaking of which, this is also my problem as a mother. If I hadn't always ignored the communication between Yuka and myself, how could she become like this?

"The doctor just said it's just a common fever, so you don't have to worry too much, Aunt Sayuri..."

Zhao Yu didn't know how to deal with the problems at Yuhua's home before Yuhua woke up. He could only comfort Sayuri.

"Can you go and help me check on Zheng Zang and the others? I can't leave now..." said Sayuri.

"I understand." Zhao Yu nodded, turned and left the room.

After walking through the corridor, he came to the living room, where the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.

Shinichiro Ueno sat in the main seat in the middle, with an unfathomable expression on his face, while Masao Ueno knelt in front of him, saying nothing.

Seeing Zhao Yu coming, Chen Xiuhua and Mamiko waved to him and motioned him to come over and sit down.

"How is Yuka now?" Ueno Shinichiro spoke as soon as Zhao Yu sat down.

"It's nothing, she's still sleeping. The doctor said she'll be fine once she wakes up." Zhao Yu replied.

After hearing these words, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Congressman, what are you going to do next?" Ueno Shinichiro looked at Ueno Masazō.

"I...I..." Ueno Masao couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

How to do it? He has already put pressure on the local government in Nara and contacted the lawmakers in Tokyo, but the final result was that Kubota was removed from office.

He felt a little guilty when he thought of this. He said such nice things, but in the end he could only do this much.

Now he wishes he could go back to the past. If it were that time, perhaps this guy would already be in Tokyo Bay.

"So, Masao...even if Yuka inherited the Ueno family, what would happen? In the end, she would be just like you, with no way to deal with some things." Ueno Shinichiro sighed.

"If I hadn't worked with those people for a period of time, Yuka might not have come back yet."

"I'm sorry, father, I'm useless..." Ueno Masazō buried his head in the floor.

"It's not your fault. After all, as a businessman, this is the limit... But I can't help you anymore in the future," said Shinichiro Ueno.

Favors are something that become less and less each time they are used, and he has no way to ask for them again.

"Grandpa, Uncle Zhengzang, I have an idea." Zhao Yu suddenly spoke.

"Since Japan is somewhat restricted, why not go to a place that is more suitable for development?"

"What does this mean?" Ueno Shinichiro looked at Zhao Yu.

"What happened today will definitely be known to China. Youhua and I are speaking for China. I believe my motherland will give us justice." Zhao Yu paused and continued.

"Why not take this opportunity to gradually expand the business to China? There... at least it won't be like it is now."

For Zhao Yu, today's incident is actually an opportunity for the Ueno family to come to China, so he made this suggestion.

Compared to Japan, class stratification in China is not that serious, and as foreigners, the Ueno family still receives some preferential treatment.

Not to mention that Youhua has been doing external propaganda for China...

In this way, the last problem that has been bothering Yuka will also be solved, and then the two of them will really have no troubles.

"Masaozo, what do you think? Now you are the head of the Ueno family." Shinichiro Ueno looked at Masaozo Ueno, waiting for his answer.

"I'll think about it carefully," said Masao Ueno.

The reason why he could break into the congressman's house so smoothly and brazenly today was because of the help of Shinichiro Ueno. After this incident, he was really moved by what Zhao Yu said.

"Young man, you are very good. I feel relieved to leave Yuhua to you." Ueno Masazō looked at Zhao Yu.

At this time, he can still calmly think of some future plans for the Ueno family. This son-in-law is much better than himself.

"Uncle Ueno, are you...acknowledging me?" Zhao Yu asked.

Ueno Masao didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Still calling you uncle? What a jerk!" Chen Xiuhua on the side suddenly reminded him in Sichuan dialect.

"Dad, I won't let you down." Zhao Yu immediately understood.

"Hahaha, this is perfect!" Shinichiro Ueno finally smiled.

"It's nothing, go check on Yuka..."

As he spoke, Shinichiro Ueno waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.

After everyone left, he picked up the phone beside him with an expressionless face and dialed a number.

"Although I can't ask anyone else to help me with Tokyo, but... Nara is still my territory..."

Ueno Shinichiro's kind eyes turned a little cold, and his gaze seemed to penetrate the room.

------

"Yuka, how long has it been since we last had such an intimate time together?" Sayuri gently stroked Yuka's cheek.

"You must be very disappointed with your mother, right? After meeting Xiaoyu's mother."

Yuka's dependence on Chen Xiuhua is something that Sayuri has always longed for.

In fact, she was also relied on by Yuka in this way before, but she ruined it all by herself.

Her thoughts went back to Yuka's childhood, and Sayuri couldn't help but hum the nursery rhyme that she often used to put Yuka to sleep.

In the dark environment, there are colorful lines everywhere, sometimes rotating and sometimes intertwining. The weird scene makes Youhua a little scared.

She ran desperately, and seemed to hear a sound in her ears. Along with the sound, a light appeared in the distance.

Yuka quickly ran towards the light, and the sound became clearer and clearer.

Is this... the song my mother sang to me? Yuka immediately recognized that this was her favorite nursery rhyme when she was young.

Before she left Nara, she was always lulled to sleep by this nursery rhyme.

At that time, my father was not so strict, and my mother was always gentle. I really miss it...

If mom were willing to listen to my ideas as carefully as she did when I was a child, wouldn't so many things happen less?

The light grew larger and larger, filling Yuka's vision, and she finally opened her heavy eyelids.

The sound of the nursery rhyme still did not disappear. Yuhua raised his head with great effort and saw Sayuri patting him gently.

"Mom...Mom?" Yuka said with difficulty

"Yuka! You're awake!" Sayuri hugged Yuka and couldn't help crying.

"I'm sorry, Yuuka... I'm a bad mother and I'll never be the same again."

Tears wet Yuka's shoulders. Sayuri's embrace was so warm, just like when they were little. Yuka opened her arms and hugged her tightly.

Putting his chin on Sayuri's shoulder, Yuka was about to say something to her, but he saw a figure at the door.

“……” Ueno Masazō looked at Yuuka who was looking at him, was silent for a moment, and then forced a stiff smile.

"You were very brave this time. You did a good job. You are worthy of being my daughter."

Hearing this, Yuka's eyes widened. The thing she had longed for but couldn't get actually appeared like this.
