Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1511. Female Charm

As summer vacation was approaching, Zhang Zi called and asked about her daughter's plans.

After Ayumi Hamasaki went to Beijing, the mother and daughter did not communicate frequently. Zhang Zi's innocent personality made her not feel any sadness or worry about her daughter's departure.

For the confused Ayumi Hamasaki, her mother's phone call was like a piece of driftwood when she was lost in the water. However, if she returned to Fukuoka and her mother at this time, this girl's dream would be shattered in this way, and she might lose the courage to come to Tokyo again.

That night, Ayumi Hamasaki was so excited that she confessed her love to Akina Nakamori. Admitting that she liked Akina Nakamori was like admitting her feelings for Shinichi Iwahashi.

After the incident, she followed the routine every day and was no longer as sharp as before. Because of this, when Akina Nakamori, who had cut her long hair, suddenly appeared in front of her, Ayumi Hamasaki felt caught off guard.

Long hair is seen as a symbol of femininity, however, when Akina Nakamori cut her long hair, she exuded a mature temperament like a red rose.

Ayumi Hamasaki suddenly saw Akina Nakamori's new image, as if she was pricked by the thorn of a rose when she was caught off guard.

If Akina Nakamori is not a caregiver, then she is a complete woman. All the girlish thoughts in the past could not withstand the storm when a real woman appeared in front of her.

Previously, Shinichi Iwahashi was a gentle wall, but now Akina Nakamori is like a strong wind.

Ayumi Hamasaki was overwhelmed by the feminine charm displayed by Akina Nakamori, but at the same time, her heart was shaking in the strong wind and she was confused, as if for the first time since she was born, she truly understood what a "woman" is and what she aspires to be and what she is going to become.

……

Today, there was an art class in the classroom. After school, Ayumi Hamasaki was leaving the school when someone suddenly called her name from behind. Her mind was full of chaotic thoughts, and she was suddenly approached. She screamed, attracting the attention of people around her.

The boy approached her with a bright smile: "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Among the students of the same school, someone soon recognized who this boy was. Ayumi Hamasaki didn't want to be known in public as having any connection with the Johnny's idol, but Tomoya Nagase didn't think he should keep his distance from her.

"You always look like you have a lot on your mind."

Nagase Tomoya's cynical tone concealed concern, "You didn't seem like this when I first met you."

"What were you like when we first met?" Ayumi Hamasaki asked back.

Tomoya Nagase scratched his hair and showed a slightly embarrassed expression, "I can't seem to remember." He laughed to himself. Ayumi Hamasaki realized later that Tomoya Nagase was actually making a joke, and her expression couldn't help but gloomy.

As soon as the bus stopped, Ayumi Hamasaki got on, but saw Tomoya Nagase following her.

"It just happened that we were on the same train..." Nagase Tomoya explained to her. However, he deliberately squeezed in front of her just to make such an explanation, which made it seem that the fact that they were traveling together was very deliberate.

"I'm sorry about what happened just now."

Ayumi Hamasaki was indifferent to the boy's apology. Nagase Tomoya was unyielding and kept asking her questions: "Where are you going next?"

"I'm going to meet Iwahashi-san."

Ayumi Hamasaki didn't know what kind of mood she was in when she said this, nor could she explain why she lied to him. Seeing Nagase Tomoya's unexpected expression, she provoked him and asked, "Do you want to go with me?"

"Why? It seems so rude to go meet Mr. Iwahashi suddenly without an appointment." For Tomoya Nagase, Shinichi Iwahashi was not someone he could meet whenever he wanted.

"If I tell you the reason, will you agree?"

Nagase Tomoya thought about it and said, "That depends on the reason..."

"Forget it." Ayumi Hamasaki suddenly felt bored.

When the bus arrived at the station, Ayumi Hamasaki said goodbye to him simply: "Goodbye."

Nagase Tomoya followed him out of the car. The boy's behavior was unexpected. However, Ayumi Hamasaki also subtly realized that this was expected. After being shocked by the true charm of women, the girl naturally understood how to get along with a boy who had a good impression of her, but she herself might not be aware of such a subtle change.

After changing subways for two stops, Ayumi Hamasaki went not to GENZO but to an entertainment studio.

Nagase Tomoya was puzzled: "Aren't you going to see Iwahashi-san?"

"I thought about it and decided that not going to class is not an option." Ayumi Hamasaki changed her mind so arbitrarily that it was a bit arrogant.

Tomoya Nagase was fooled by her and was stunned.

Ayumi Hamasaki looked at his distressed face and said happily: "Goodbye, and...thank you for today."

She walked briskly towards the arts classroom. Passing by the office, she saw shadows on the other side of the drawn blinds.

"Ayu-chan~"

The teacher waved to Ayumi Hamasaki before she said hello.

"Miura-sensei."

As soon as Ayumi Hamasaki stepped forward, the teacher told her, "Iwahashi-san is here today."

The corridor suddenly lit up, and the blinds in the office were drawn up. Ayumi Hamasaki seemed to hear the sound of the blinds being drawn up - of course, that was just an illusion in her mind.

Shinichi Iwahashi stood on the other side of the glass window.

Ayumi Hamasaki's heartbeat quickened suddenly, and she remembered the lie she had told Tomoya Nagase after school. She ran to the stairs, and when she opened the window, she imagined Shinichi Iwahashi pulling up the blinds. The boy's back had already walked far away.

"what happened?"

Shinichi Iwahashi's voice sounded behind her.

Ayumi Hamasaki turned around and saw a face with a slightly inquiring expression. She turned her back to the window and looked at Shinichi Iwahashi: "My schoolmates sent me here."

"His name is Tomoya Nagase, do you remember?"

Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a moment and said, "It must be Johnny's child."

"Yes... But even so, you have produced many new people, and probably not everyone can remember them." Ayumi Hamasaki took a step forward. As soon as he closed the distance between him and Shinichi Iwahashi, he started to walk towards the office.

Ayumi Hamasaki followed him and heard him answer: "At least when it comes to things related to entertainers, I have a good memory."

"You are a famous producer." Ayumi Hamasaki's tone was unconsciously teasing, as if she was quietly extending a tentacles in the dark.

Iwahashi Shinichi smiled, "Of course."

Since that night at the disco, the two of them have not talked or laughed, let alone talked. During this period, Ayumi Hamasaki's heart was in a state of confusion, not knowing how to face it or what to do. But strangely, when they met Shinichi Iwahashi today, the atmosphere between them was neither tense nor awkward.

Ayumi Hamasaki thought to herself that she wanted to lie to Tomoya Nagase, but the fact turned out that she didn't lie. Shinichi Iwahashi broke her lie, and he himself knew nothing about it.

"Are you here to see me?" Ayumi Hamasaki asked.

"I heard from the teacher in the performing arts classroom that you performed quite well."

"You can see me if you want to, or you can ignore me if you want to."

Iwahashi Shinichi didn't expect the girl's persistence to wait here. He turned around and looked at Ayumi Hamasaki helplessly.
