Chapter 1513: Chapter 1513
People who like watching Japanese anime are definitely familiar with a term.
Looking at the cordoned-off street ahead, sitting in the car, Jiang Chen felt like he was seeing art come to life.
Luckily, he had a "pass."
Taking out the reservation slip given by Cao Jinse, the plainclothes guards allowed him through.
Noble Tenryuu people certainly wouldn’t stay in hotels. The car drove past the blocked street and stopped in front of a exquisitely designed private residence.
Not sure if it’s provided by the Japan Government or their private property.
"Wait for me in the car."
The driver was Tanki Liuli.
For business negotiations, there was no need to bring her inside, better to stay in the car at ease.
"If you’re bored, play with your phone,"
The underpowered little genius watch finally got replaced.
After muttering a word, Jiang Chen pushed the door open and got out, walking towards the house where civilians must halt.
The outer area traffic control was managed by Dongying people, but once inside, it changed to tall white people.
Seeing them raise a hand to signal him, Jiang Chen cooperated by stopping, letting them conduct routine checks.
The two white people stepped aside, and Jiang Chen walked through the courtyard entrance.
At Shiyao Shrine, a sacred site in Dongying, he still had to find his own position, but here, there was no need to wander. Led by a black brother, Jiang Chen arrived at a bright reception room.
Boss Jiang was absolutely not an impatient person. Moreover, since he came willingly, he had to have the necessary awareness.
Patiently sitting and waiting.
Waiting a while was no big deal, but what made him feel slighted was the fact that there wasn’t even tea or peanuts, basic hospitality items, which truly lacked decorum.
But maybe Westerners don’t understand Eastern hospitality customs?
Of course, Boss Jiang didn’t care about these small details, sitting calmly.
For most people, they might become restless, but Boss Jiang had great composure, closing his eyes, staying unperturbed.
Until half an hour passed.
Only then did there come some noise from outside.
Jiang Chen opened his eyes and turned his head.
What he saw was a man, handsome and charming, but that wasn’t the key point.
This wasn’t the person he was supposed to meet.
But Jiang Chen wasn’t disappointed because he sensed from the footsteps that they were heavier, not a woman’s steps.
Realizing there was someone in the reception room, the man who walked in seemed surprised, instinctively glancing at Jiang Chen for a moment, then politely nodded with a smile.
Jiang Chen reciprocated with a slight smile, acknowledging politely.
The man found a place to sit, conveniently across from Jiang Chen.
Definitely not people of Shenzhou.
Clearly, most likely a Dongying person.
"Hello, how should I address you?"
The man initiated conversation, speaking in English, friendly and amiable.
Boss Jiang introduced himself in the simplest way possible, then followed etiquette by asking: "Your surname?"
Anyone who could enter this private residence wasn’t ordinary.
Knowing more friends opened more paths.
The man easily revealed his name.
Jiang Chen remained composed, but his gaze became more focused.
In Dongying, not many people have this surname, and even fewer could access this private residence.
Jiang Chen paid attention to the man’s eyebrows.
Perhaps it was psychological, but he sensed a resemblance to a certain calamity-level beauty.
Jiang Chen kept smiling, not probing further, staying quiet.
Seeing this, the man didn’t continue speaking. Not everyone enjoys chatting with strangers.
Their communication was limited to exchanging names, then stopped.
Then another twenty more minutes passed.
Fujiwara Takuya raised his wrist to check the time, not wearing a Patek Philippe or a Vacheron Constantin, just an ordinary watch.
"Mr. Jiang, how long have you been waiting here?"
After checking the time, he asked.
Jiang Chen replied honestly.
"Did no one tell you how long to wait?"
Jiang Chen shook his head.
The special surname Fujiwara Takuya sighed and continued waiting patiently.
This wait was another half-hour.
But regrettably, it wasn’t the figure resembling a deity seen at Haneda International Airport.
"Sorry, both of you, Miss doesn’t have time today, please leave."
After waiting this long, only to be told there’s no time?
What were they doing earlier?
Most people would probably slam the table and angrily curse, yet perhaps due to the overwhelming physique of the black brother, with his hardy face, neither Jiang Chen nor Fujiwara Takuya expressed discontent.
"Alright, since Miss Cynthia doesn’t have time, I’ll come back another day."
Fujiwara Takuya stood up, entirely unconcerned, as if the near hour wasted was of no value.
Of course, Jiang Chen had waited even longer.
Actually, even if waiting was in vain, giving a more sincere reason might have been easier to accept.
What’s with "no time"?
"Mr. Jiang, should we go?"
Fujiwara Takuya turned to Jiang Chen.
"Then let’s come back another day."
Boss Jiang nodded and smiled.
It’s all about understanding.
The two empathetic individuals walked out together.
"Miss Cynthia, having come to Dongying, has many things to handle, it’s understandable."
Fujiwara Takuya unexpectedly offered an excuse for her.
Jiang Chen felt inferior, kept silent.
Exited the private residence.
"Mr. Jiang, it’s been a pleasure."
Just now in the reception room, it was too far to interact, but now standing at the entrance, Fujiwara Takuya extended his hand.
Switched to fluent Chinese.
"Mr. Fujiwara’s pronunciation is very accurate."
Jiang Chen raised his hand.
The man chuckled, "My sister is very knowledgeable about Shenzhou culture, I learned from her."
Jiang Chen’s demeanor unchanged, smiled as they shook hands, "I see."
"Mr. Jiang, goodbye."
Fujiwara Takuya withdrew his hand and walked towards the black luxury car convoy. Even before reaching it, the bodyguards waiting at the door opened the car door.
In comparison, Boss Jiang’s setup seemed much more humble, not only having just one car but also with a driver lacking any awareness, falling asleep in the car, causing Boss Jiang to knock on the window before Tanki Liuli woke up inside.
The car door unlocked.
Jiang Chen opened the door, "If you sleep in the car, remember to turn off the ignition, be careful of carbon monoxide poisoning."
The luxury car convoy passed by.
Jiang Chen did not look, getting into the Maybach S580.
In the luxury car convoy.
The courteous and friendly Fujiwara Takuya similarly kept his eyes straight ahead as they crossed paths with the outside Maybach S580, fingers unconsciously brushing, expressionless.
