I push the kid!

The clouds behind the Ferris wheel were as white as a dress just out of the laundry room.

This is what May is like, it doesn’t feel like spring, and summer doesn’t feel like summer, but it’s also beautiful this way.

"About B Komachi..." He looked away.

Everyone held their breath, even Makimura Takuya looked over solemnly.

Ichigo Saito exhaled slowly, the phone was held in his hand, he lowered his head and looked at the ground.

Under the sunglasses was his somewhat older face. He sighed again, his voice rather hoarse: "If it doesn't work this time, B Komachi..."

He raised his head and glanced around. The four girls were all looking at him. He felt a little reluctant, but he had to say it. He said, "If it doesn't work, let's just forget it."

No one could speak.

A stony silence fell over the room.

Some people gasped, some made tiny exclamations, but even the smallest movements were easily captured.

Everything around was still, except for the Ferris wheel which was still spinning far away outside the window.

The president sighed softly and sat up straight. Watanabe Mai suddenly stood up and everyone looked up at her.

She struggled, as if she had made up her mind:

"How can we just give up? This is just the beginning. Not to mention the results haven't come out yet, are we going to give up after one failure? I, I don't agree!"

"Watanabe..." Ninomiya Ritsuko said softly, looking up.

Sanae Takamine looked troubled, stood up, and wanted to talk to the president alone, but the president waved his hand and said let's talk here.

Beside her, Hoshino Ai was still sitting on the sofa in shock.

She looked at Watanabe Mai who was standing tall with empty eyes, looking at her expression and her profile.

The look disappeared.

Forget it? How can I do that?

She looked at Taku Makimura, who was looking at her, and her heart was calmer than ever.

We clearly agreed that any result is acceptable, but I still want to fight for it.

Hoshino Ai slowly lowered her head and thought.

I have been quite busy recently and haven’t had time to write a thank you letter.

Thanks to [Xingye Ai Furu] [UBS Xin] [PAUL2] for the rewards.

Thank you all for your monthly votes and recommendation votes.

Chapter 62 That’s it

Chapter 62 62. So Far

"In short," the president touched his earlobe, glanced to the side, and looked embarrassed, "I considered a lot of things when making this decision..."

"But!" Watanabe Mai rushed to speak, but her fingers were pulled by someone. She immediately turned her head and a pair of eyes were staring at her from the side and behind.

"Watanabe," Sanae Takamine told her, "wait until the president finishes speaking."

Mai Watanabe stood there in a daze, her lips moving, and the air she breathed into her body was colder than usual.

She lowered her brows and sat down anyway.

The sofa wrinkled her skirt and she rested her hands on her legs, touching her thumbs together.

A white hand reached out from the side, warmer and softer than the minute before.

She raised her head, her throat making a dry sound, and Hoshino Ai held her tightly.

Both of their hands were very small, and neither could wrap the other.

"Xiao Ai..." Watanabe Mai said softly.

I'm here. Hoshino Ai responded to her with her eyes.

Saito Ichigo rubbed his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed:

"Well, you don't have to be so sad in front of me... Just listen to what you have to say."

"What do you mean?!" Ninomiya Ritsuko asked anxiously.

"What I just said..." Mai Watanabe had originally leaned towards Hoshino Ai, but now she turned her head around, wiped away her non-existent tears, and said, "Were they all lies?"

"President?" Hoshino Ai looked up.

Sanae Takamine is still the calmest one.

She is like B Komachi's metronome, everyone trusts her and she always plays her role.

There was only one moment when she felt that she was the least like herself. She glanced at Hoshino Ai and then silently looked away.

The president said slowly:

"The main problem is that the agency's financial situation is not very good. If we don't debut this time, we don't know when we will have the next chance."

He paused, rubbing the edge of his phone, which didn't even have a phone case on it. "If I don't debut, I won't be able to make a profit, and the agency will be in trouble..."

"We can save money a bit," said Mai Watanabe.

Everyone looked at her, and she added tentatively, "No, it's okay if it doesn't cost money?"

"How is that possible?" Saito Ichigo said with a sophisticated look, "It's impossible to debut in the first place, and I have to reduce my investment in the future. How can I ever make a breakthrough?"

"That's true..." Ritsuko Ninomiya thought of that situation.

Ichigo Saito glanced at her, then glanced away from Taku Makimura.

He took a deep breath and spoke in a sighing voice:

"The firm is not doing charity. There is no hope for investment, even if cutting losses is the best option."

A crow flying by the window let out a strange cry, attracting everyone's attention.

Saito Ichigo looked up and observed the sky through his sunglasses. He said:

“Although I know you are all reluctant, reality is cruel. There will always be someone who comes out on top, and there will always be someone who comes out on the bottom.

"There is no future in this direction. Rather than overdrawing everything, it is better to find another way. This is the current situation of the firm."

Everyone was silent. Mai Watanabe was trying her best to think about the meaning of that sentence. Suddenly, Ai Hoshino raised her voice: "President!"

Saito Ichigo turned his head, and Hoshino Ai asked him: "As long as there is enough funding, B Komachi can continue to exist, right?"

"In theory..." Saito Ichigo didn't know what she was going to do, "But in the final analysis, the results of the draft haven't come out yet. I'm just telling you in advance. I hope you won't feel it's too sudden then."

He said, “Don’t worry too much.”

"Now that things have come to this, how can I not care?" said Hoshino Ai.

"That's right." Saito Ichigo scratched the back of his head and smiled.

“…Even if, even if I fail this time, I still want to persevere.”

"Ok?"

"I think B-Komachi will last forever."

Saito Ichigo was silent for a moment, then sighed, "It's time for you to grow up, Ai."

"That's why I said it."

"This is not playing house."

"I know."

"What do you know?" Saito Ichigo sighed and took off his sunglasses.

"Xiao Ai." Watanabe Mai put her hand on Hoshino Ai's skirt.

"As long as there is enough funds, it will be fine." Hoshino Ai said this with her head down.

"Society is more complicated than you think." Saito Ichigo warned her, "Money is not that easy to make."

Hoshino Ai still didn't look up, but said calmly, quietly, and without any emotion: "I don't care."

Saito Ichigo shook his head and stood up: "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom to smoke a cigarette."

No one answered, so he pushed the door open and walked out. There was only stillness and air in the room, as if no one was there.

Hoshino Ai closed her legs and curled her hands on her legs. Takamine Sanae looked around, then stood up and opened the window.

The wind blew in from outside. It was windy today and the air was fresh, but the sunlight was weak.

"What are you going to do?" asked Taku Makimura.

Takamine Sanae stood by the window and looked back. Watanabe Mai and Ninomiya Ritsuko also looked at him. Hoshino Ai paused before answering, "I don't know."

"Are you showing off first?"

"There will always be a way." She said calmly.

"As expected of you."

Hoshino Ai laughed: "My usual self!"

"Come to think of it, the results haven't come out yet," said Ritsuko Ninomiya, "Everyone, don't think too much about it, okay?"

Takamine Sanae stepped back from the window and said, "Although this is a bit discouraging, everyone should have understood the result."

Ninomiya Ritsuko was silent.

Mai Watanabe said to Taku Makimura, "Makimura-kun, do you have any ideas?"

"any solution?"

“A quick way to make money.”

"How can it be that simple?"

"Then what should I do..." She held her head in pain, "If there is no other way, I can only do that kind of thing."
