Tokyo's most affectionate

"?" Seeing her tone suddenly rise, Kurosawa Hikaru was a little confused.

"Don't hide things from me when you encounter them. I'm your agent. I'm here to work with you and help you, not just be an audience watching you perform. If you have any difficulties or problems, tell me and I'll find a way to solve them for you."

Igarashi Runa put one hand on her chest and took a step forward to show her presence, feeling extremely excited.

He wanted to tell Chizuru about Miss Ichinose signing with the agency, but he thought he hadn't told her yet.

She went to talk to Chizuru about this matter face to face, but she went there under a lot of pressure, as on one side there was friendship and on the other there was career.

Regarding the profit sharing issue of the contract with Ms. Ichinose, he heard him explain the situation in the industry, but she didn't even say the conclusion, so he mistakenly thought that she would give Ichinose Yuki 73% of the profit sharing.

What's more, she didn't even pursue the fact that Kurosawa was a karaoke singing god and deliberately deceived her.

It is obvious that she has always tried her best to help Kurosawa, whether he was pursuing Chizuru or he was in trouble, she always tried to find ways to help him out, treated him very well, and tolerated all his mistakes.

"Or do you think I am just an outsider, someone who is not worthy of your trust or reliance?"

Thinking of these things, Igarashi Runa felt very aggrieved. The resentment and dissatisfaction that had been suppressed in her heart for a while suddenly came to her mind, and tears involuntarily filled the corners of her eyes.

Can't he really see how good I am to him and how tolerant I am of him?

Chapter 319 Benefactor

"How could I treat you as an outsider?"

Faced with this sudden emotional outburst and seeing that she seemed like she was about to cry, Kurosawa Hikaru suddenly panicked and quickly denied it.

He actually saw how good Miss Runa was to him.

Whether it was assisting and acting as a wingman at the amusement park when they first met, or going to the haunted house alone in order to let him and Miss Ninomiya be alone, and ending up being scared and crying, with her makeup ruined.

Or when he was hugged by Yuki at the Budokan and was caught by Miss Ninomiya, and a big problem almost occurred, it was she who stepped forward to take charge of the situation and prevented the situation from getting worse.

In addition, in order to make things more convenient for him, Miss Runa would drive to pick him up many times.

It is because he has seen all these things that he knows very well that beneath Igarashi Runa's handsome and beautiful appearance lies a gentle and extremely tolerant heart.

"If you think there is a problem, why do you keep saying there is no problem? Do you think that you can put me at ease by constantly saying there is no problem?"

Igarashi Runa felt that his words and actions treated her as an outsider.

In many things, she already trusts Kurosawa Hikaru.

Even if she saw with her own eyes that he was a playboy who was dating multiple women at the same time, she still believed that he was not the kind of scumbag who was a swindler for money and sex that she hated the most.

Also, when it comes to the planning and development of artists, as long as he has an idea, she will not interfere. As long as he thinks it is feasible, she will believe in him and do her best to help him.

"I'm sorry, I really don't distrust your thoughts, it's just that the problem of Flight of the Bumblebee is complicated to explain and troublesome to solve."

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't know what he said wrongly that irritated her, but seeing her aggrieved look, he had no temper at all and could only try to coax her.

"If there is a problem, but nothing is done, that is a problem. It is complicated to explain, and we have time. I would rather listen to you explain it slowly than just say no problem."

When Igarashi Runa heard his gentle voice, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, ready to fall at any moment.

She really hates this. When something happens, she refuses to tell her, which makes people feel very distant.

What made her feel the most wronged was Kurosawa's question in the car, which sounded like a question and doubt: "You want to give her 73?"

Did he think that I was targeting his girlfriend, Yuki Ichinose?

How is this possible? If she really wanted to target Yuki Ichinose, she wouldn't have taken on everything under such pressure and solved the problem for him.

"To put it simply, after I finished the performance just now, there was no problem with my playing, my fingering, and the piece of music. But I had an idea that if there was a professional orchestra accompanying me, this piano piece would be even better, which is why I said it was a pity."

Seeing that she was getting sadder as she spoke, Kurosawa Mitsuru took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, and then explained briefly.

"Since you have the inspiration, go ahead and do it. I'll find a band for you."

Although Igarashi Runa felt aggrieved, she realized his troubles and problems and decided to take action to help him.

After saying that, she immediately took out her cell phone and started tapping away, trying to contact someone to solve the problem.

As a gold medal agent, coupled with her talkativeness and willingness to help others, she is very popular.

"I know you can find an orchestra, but the problem is what should I do if I am not satisfied? With my level, it is not easy to find an orchestra that can accompany me and satisfy me."

At this moment, Kurosawa Mitsuru reached out and grabbed her phone, stopped her from operating it and said.

"Then look for another one. There are so many bands in the world, there's always one that will satisfy you."

Igarashi Runa pulled at the phone, and when she found she couldn't pull it out of his hand, she said.

"But we don't have that much time to try them one by one. I want to release the work as soon as possible, achieve more fame, make more money, and pull Miss Ninomiya out of the bank she doesn't like."

Kurosawa Hikaru looked at her tearful eyes and pitiful face, and felt very sorry.

Ever since he knew that she might like him, although she had always acted very naturally and interacted with him like a friend or colleague, her love was not as direct and scary as Miki Baiyu's, which made people avoid her.

But subconsciously, he still didn't dare to look at her too much or interact with her too much, so as not to complicate the relationship between the two.

Perhaps this was the reason why she felt alienated.

"If that's the reason, just tell me directly. I also want to get Chizuru out of the bank as soon as possible."

After learning the reason, Igarashi Runa was speechless and glared at him.

"But after saying it, the result is that nothing is done. It's best to keep it as it is. It's no different from nonsense... I just simply expressed my intention to do something for Miss Ninomiya, and I feel embarrassed."

Seeing that the tears in her eyes showed signs of stopping, Kurosawa Hikaru continued to explain.

"You can even say that my heart is divided into three parts, all of which are of equal weight. Are you afraid of embarrassment?"

Igarashi Runa rolled her eyes at him. With tears in the corners of her eyes, she looked very bright and charming, full of alluring charm.

"..."

Being teased by her like this, Kurosawa Mitsuru couldn't help but be amazed when he saw her pretty face that was crying and laughing.

This is a rare side to see. After making a woman cry, she is still smiling at you, which gives people a very special feeling.

Although as an adult, Miss Runa is not as frank as Miki Shiraha, and her love is not as obvious and scary.

But her gentle and hardworking character, her tolerance and kindness in every word and action are very touching, and she becomes more and more beautiful the more you look at her.

"It's just a joke, don't be angry."

Because he had just finished a performance and was still wearing a mask, Igarashi Runa couldn't see his look and expression. She noticed that he suddenly stopped talking and thought he was angry, so she hurriedly said.

"I'm not angry, I'm just a little embarrassed... and I didn't say it because I didn't want to cause you trouble. If you really want to achieve the ideal effect, even if you spend a lot of time and energy, it may not succeed."

She had just finished crying, so how could Kurosawa Hikaru dare to be angry? When he came to his senses, he was shocked, shook his head and explained.

Fortunately, I was wearing a mask. If she had found out that I was staring at her and distracted, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to talk about work today and the atmosphere would definitely become very awkward.

Masks have many benefits. Not only can they hide one's appearance and true identity, but they can also prevent people from seeing his expression.

"I would rather you tell me when you encounter problems and cause me a little trouble, rather than causing me huge trouble without anyone knowing. You don't know how embarrassing my situation is when you quarrel with Chizuru."

Igarashi Runa felt a little relieved and found that he was not so easily angry, so she snorted in dissatisfaction.

Although she acted natural and the same as usual when she met Kurosawa, she was also very hurt during this period, and was even depressed and irritable.

When Chizuru ran back home sadly, she felt that her future, which was full of hope and beauty, was all ruined.

Fortunately, Kurosawa Hikaru's mouth is unreliable. He said he would respect Chizuru's choice, but after Chizuru turned away sadly, he still shamelessly sent her a message.

"Okay, I'll try to tell you if anything happens to me in the future."

When Kurosawa Mitsuru saw her complaint and thought of what happened before, he also said something.

"Try your best?"

Faced with such a guarantee, Igarashi Runa couldn't help but hesitate.

Everything a man says is a lie. Having worked in this industry for many years, she knows this very well.

Having said that, Kurosawa's assurance still feels quite believable... If I told you for sure, I would definitely be lying.

"In any case, I can't treat you as an outsider." Seeing her intriguing expression, Kurosawa Mitsuru said firmly.

"Then what do you take me as?" Igarashi Runa came to her senses and couldn't help but ask.

"Benefactor." Kurosawa Mitsuru answered without hesitation.

"Benefactor?" Igarashi Runa was a little surprised.

This answer was really beyond her expectations.

After she asked this question, she had several guesses in her mind.

The ideal situation is to treat her as a sister.

The most normal situation is to treat her as a friend.

The worst case scenario is to treat her as a colleague.

As for liking her, although she had expectations, she also knew that it was unrealistic.

After all, her identity is very embarrassing, she is Chizuru's best friend. The reason why Kurosawa has no feelings towards her even though he has been dating several men is probably because of this relationship.

"You've helped me a lot, I know it all, I'll find a way to repay you in the future, just like when you wanted a pen before, I gave you one."

Faced with her surprise, Kurosawa Mitsuru nodded and expressed his thoughts.

Compared with the rough-nerved men, women have very delicate and sensitive minds and are prone to having wild thoughts.

In order to avoid her misunderstanding in the future and feeling that I am treating her as an outsider, I have to make things clear.

"Uh-huh."

After thinking about these words, Igarashi Runa nodded with satisfaction.

Doing good things without asking for anything in return is the character of a saint.

She is a normal person. She wants to be rewarded and seen when she does good things.

Even if she can't be with Kurosawa, being his friend isn't a bad thing. He can see her good side, and will rely on her when he has problems, so it's not bad to help him solve his problems.

"Let's edit the video and audio together first and see the effect. I'll post a preview later."

Igarashi Runa also suggested that the rift between the two people be resolved.

"Okay." Kurosawa Hikaru nodded.

Then, Igarashi Runa wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers and took action.

Because she had asked for advice when installing the recording studio's central control console, she still knew how to copy the recorded audio.

"After you finish Flight of the Bumblebee, which one are you going to record first? 'The Bells'? Or 'Adeline at the Water'?"

After copying it to the USB drive, Igarashi Runa walked out of the room and turned around to ask.

"'Adeline at the Water', then Liszt's 'The Bells'. It would be better to change the style of posting, so that fans can keep it fresh."

"In fact, many fans and music critics on the Internet said that your piece was not Liszt's Bells, but The Bells at Zero Hour. Although it is the same piece of music and the same score, your playing style and level are very high. It can be said that you have performed a completely different version that is unique to you."

"No matter what others say, it is still Liszt's "The Bells", not my original piece."

Kurosawa Hikaru naturally knew that his playing style was different from that of other pianists, especially on that day when he was performing with anger and wanted to prove his ability, but no matter how much the fans praised him, he could not lose himself.

"Right."

Igarashi Runa thought for a moment, then nodded.

No matter how well the cover singer sings, the song is someone else's, and it will always be someone else's.

Fortunately, Kurosawa Hikaru has many original piano pieces, which are the most valuable.

Chapter 320: The Scent of Roses

The priority was to finish the video to be released today. The two of them went to the third floor and turned on their laptops.

Edit the audio and video together, align the timeline, and cut out the behind-the-scenes footage at the beginning and end, and your audio and video will be ready.

"I'm done."

After a while, Igarashi Runa said.

"So fast."
