Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku

Upon hearing this, Suzuki's face turned ashen, his limbs stiffened as he walked, and he held a cup of tea that had been poured out of nowhere in his hand as he walked stiffly toward Sato.

It's clear they want to apologize.

Seeing this scene, everyone around felt a sense of relief and relaxation, as if they had finally gotten their revenge.

After all, the president is clearly biased towards Sato, which is a good thing.

However, as Suzuki drew closer, Sato's expression changed.

The teacup was steaming hot, looking scalding hot. Generally speaking, tea should never be served at such a temperature.

Suzuki, he poured the tea himself, how could he not know? That means...

Just as Sato was thinking, Suzuki was about to walk in front of him when he seemed to trip over something and lose his balance.

Not only that, the hot tea was then splashed at Sato.

"So this is what they're going to do. It would have been better to just drug him; he'll have resistance to drugs anyway."

Sato, who was already prepared, thought to himself that he had something to say. On the other side, Ogawa saw this scene and, in shock, took action before he could think.

The woman took a step forward, seemingly about to shield Sato from the bullet with her face.

Strange...why would she do that?

Ogawa stared at the spilled tea, as if he had entered a bullet time.

My mind, barely able to process what had happened, was filled with deep confusion.

It might not disfigure you, but it must be very painful.

Not to mention that it's a girl's face.

"why?"

I don't know, but I don't want the other person to get hurt.

Congratulations! Your beloved has risked her life to protect you from an assassination attempt!

"Is this what you call assassination?"

Sato, staring at the frame of text, didn't have time to think about it in detail.

He simply turned away from the tea, and in doing so, pulled Xiao Chuan, who was trying to take the bullet for him, into his arms, thus dissuading him from doing so.

It may seem like a long time has passed, but in reality, only a moment has elapsed.

At this moment, everyone in the office fell silent.

Their gazes lingered on Sato, Ogawa, the president, and Suzuki.

Whether Suzuki did it on purpose or not, they couldn't tell from his actions, but psychologically, they both suspected each other.

After all, it's not like they've never had a criminal record before.

Meanwhile, some of the female colleagues' eyes lit up when they saw Sato's heroic rescue, and envy rose in their hearts.

They wished they could replace him.

However, while they were excited, as if watching a teen idol drama, Maeda, as the company president, didn't think so.

Seeing this scene, he walked up to Suzuki, who had just stood up, with a livid face.

"Uncle, I'm sorry..."

Seeing his uncle's expression, Suzuki sensed something was wrong and became more obedient.

However, before he could continue speaking, upon hearing the word "uncle," the president's face darkened even further.

A slap landed on his face.

You haven't done anything wrong to me.

"I can't afford to take that responsibility. Get out! I'll have someone terminate the contract."

"what......"

Unexpectedly, Suzuki, who had been suspended from his post, suddenly stared at him with wide eyes.

"I just... I just tripped."

"Get out of here!"

He really wanted to ask his distant nephew if he had gone mad.

Sato is doing just fine, yet he still tries to embarrass others, and also embarrass himself.

The Sato of the past was alright, but the Sato of today is someone Chiba has high hopes for.

He just didn't understand, what good would it do Suzuki to provoke the other party?

With such terrible acting skills, who else would want him besides his own side?

He had even helped this relative plan out his future, but the person didn't appreciate it at all and even sabotaged his plans.

Moreover, the other party did this in front of the entire company, wasn't that just embarrassing for him?

He's practically a spoiled giant baby.

In contrast, Sato, who is younger and more composed, didn't even show his anger on his face.

It can no longer be described as heaven or earth.

Seeing that the other party remained unmoved, Maeda hardened his expression and continued.

"Here, connections are useless!"

"Let your abilities speak for themselves!"

"And don't call me 'uncle,' I don't have a nephew like you!"

The president's words were utterly merciless, especially in front of so many people.

Upon hearing this, Suzuki quickly ran away, acting like a giant baby.

Hearing the president's words, everyone became even more excited.

After all, the other party's statement already acknowledged Sato's status here.

"Sorry, Sato-kun, are you alright?"

Before anyone could react, the president had already approached Sato.

"fine."

Sato shook his head and released Ogawa, who had already regained his footing.

"That's good. I won't let Suzuki appear in front of you again."

This means they're preventing him from entering the entertainment industry again.

Sato did not object upon hearing this. If he were alone and had avoided the situation, he wouldn't bother to argue.

But Xiao Chuan is one of his own, and he's protective of his own.

What just happened was extremely dangerous for Xiaochuan's delicate skin.

Simply getting the other party to resign was not enough of a form of revenge; he was also satisfied with the decision to remove them from the entertainment industry.

After the two finished speaking, Maeda paused for a moment, then walked to the center of the office and said loudly, "Now everyone look at me, I have something to announce."

Without keeping everyone waiting too long, once their eyes were focused on him, Maeda continued, "The company is about to change its president."

"what?"

The brief words caused the scene to erupt in excitement.

Even Sato, who hadn't expected this, cast a surprised glance at the other person.

Ogawa, who had just recovered from the shock of being saved, also looked at the other person with surprise.

He was even more flustered than Sato.

"Well then, let me introduce the new president."

As Maeda spoke, his gaze was fixed on Sato, not on anyone else.

The atmosphere remained silent for a while before Sato pointed to himself, somewhat bewildered.

"I?"

“I’ve discussed it with Chiba-san. It just so happens that there’s a grape project supported by the agricultural cooperative in my hometown, and I also want to withdraw from the entertainment industry.”

"The rest is just a matter of getting the formalities sorted out; there's no problem with the intention already."

The president said this in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Upon hearing this, Sato understood why his teacher had been acting this way these past few days.

Love is about giving yourself a surprise today.
