"I know."

An and Subaru pursed their lips, "But I don't want to give up."

There was a hint of stubbornness in her tone, and her eyes showed a rare determination.

Taku Hoshikawa sat aside and did not interrupt.

He knew that this moment no longer belonged to him, but to An Hemai and her grandmother.

An and Tiantong looked at their granddaughter quietly without saying a word for a long time.

Her eyes were deep, as if she was looking through An and Subaru's faces into the more distant past, into her young self full of dreams.

When she was young, she also pursued her dreams with such perseverance, but her path was too lonely, with no one supporting her and no one understanding her.

She had actually realized a long time ago that what An Hesuba really liked was not acting, but music.

She was just trying to have it both ways just to make herself happy.

In order to avoid making me sad, Xiao Subaru has already been so accommodating to me and trying to find a win-win solution. Why should I hinder the path my granddaughter really wants to take just because of my own obsession?

She sighed softly, raised her head and looked at Xingchuan Taku, her eyes suddenly becoming sharp.

"I agree to let Xiao Subaru join your agency, but you must fulfill your promise, otherwise... I also have connections in the entertainment industry."

The tone of this sentence is calm, but it contains a sharp edge and a subtle threat.

If Taku Hoshikawa fails to fulfill his promise, she has plenty of ways to make him miserable.

Taku Hoshikawa had no doubt about the power of a veteran actor who had been standing strong from the Showa period to the present day, but he had never thought of deceiving the other party.

Once the firm develops, you will definitely have no worries about receiving various invitations.

"Please rest assured about this. Since I have asked you to hand your granddaughter over to me, I will treat her well."

Xingchuan Taku said seriously.

It was like formally requesting a relationship in front of the elders...

An He Subaru blushed.

However, finally being able to fulfill one of his biggest wishes made An Hesuba feel relieved and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

She can finally stop hiding and freely form a band with Renai, Momoka and the others!

Chapter 189: The Toyokawa Family's "Succubus Bloodline"

Suddenly there was a soft knock on the door, followed by a soft female voice.

"Senior An He, how much time do you need? It's almost our turn to perform against each other."

An Hetiantong retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Ms. Mori, I'll be right over."

She stood up and opened the door, and a faint scent of perfume wafted out.

Standing at the door was an intellectual woman who looked to be in her thirties, but was well-maintained and looked like an older sister in her twenties.

She has long, bright green hair, which makes her look gentle and capable.

"Hey, isn't this Subaru? You're here too."

Miss Mori had a friendly smile on her face and nodded towards An and Subaru, with a familiar joy in her eyes.

However, when her eyes fell on Toyokawa Kiyosuke, her expression was slightly stunned and revealed a bit of surprise.

"You are... Mr. Toyokawa? Why are you here? I don't remember you being..."

"Cough cough!"

Feng Lichuan Qinggao suddenly coughed violently twice, deliberately interrupting her.

The expression on his face was a little unnatural, and his eyes were a little evasive, as if he was worried that the other party would say something that shouldn't be said.

Sen Mei noticed Fengchuan Qinggao's embarrassment and did not continue to ask questions. Instead, she chuckled and changed the subject: "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Fengchuan."

"Ms. Mori...I didn't expect to see you here."

An Hetian looked at the two of them and asked with a hint of surprise, "Ms. Mori, do you know each other?"

"The Case Files of the Detective Granny" is a unit drama. In addition to the unshakable protagonists like An and Tiantong, different characters will appear in each unit.

Minami Mori is the heroine of this unit.

An and Tiantong didn't expect that she would know the person in front of her.

Mori Minami nodded slightly and said gently, "Well, Mr. Kiyoshige's wife, Toyokawa Mizuho, ​​and I have been close friends for many years. My daughter Wakaba Mutsu and his daughter Shoko have also been childhood sweethearts since they were young."

She spoke with a hint of nostalgia, and smiled with some emotion: "However, due to some reasons, we have rarely contacted each other recently. I didn't expect to see Mr. Fengchuan here."

Hoshikawa Taku raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes flickering slightly.

He didn't expect to meet Ruoye Mu's mother here.

This green hair really reminded him of a cucumber.

Mori Minami's gaze shifted away from Toyokawa Seikatsu and turned to look at Hoshikawa Taku, with a look of scrutiny in her eyes.

"Excuse me, who is this young man?"

An and Tiantong explained at the right time: "His name is Hoshikawa Taku, and he is the manager of the Hoshikawa Agency. He came here to discuss the contract with me for Subaru."

Hearing the surname "Hishikawa", Mori Minami was slightly stunned, and then sighed softly: "So it's the child of the Hoshikawa family..."

She looked at Hoshikawa Taku, a hint of sympathy appearing on her face.

"I knew your parents. We used to be friends. Their sudden passing... is truly regrettable."

Taku Hoshikawa didn't expect that this was actually a "game with acquaintances".

However, Hoshikawa Taku didn't have much impression of the other party. It seemed that this was only a relationship at the father's level.

Ever since Mori Minami came in, Toyokawa Seikao's state became obviously more impatient, and even his fingers were stroking the corners of his clothes nervously.

Fortunately, Mori Minami had no intention of staying long. She just exchanged a few words with An and Tendou, and then left with them.

Before leaving, An and Tiantong left a message: "Regarding Xiao Subaru's contract, you can discuss it with my agent. I will confirm the final details after I finish filming."

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked away.

Toyokawa Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief, but he was actually still a little uneasy inside. He made an excuse that he wanted to go out for a cigarette and pulled Hoshikawa Taku out of the room.

He came to the pavilion, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and his expression finally calmed down a little.

"Uncle Qinggao, what's wrong with you? Ever since Mori Minami appeared just now, you've been acting strangely. Could it be that... you have some connection with that Mori Minami?"

Hoshikawa Taku asked curiously.

"My relationship with Mori Minami is actually average, but she is my wife's best friend, and they have a close relationship. Moreover, she knows that I was expelled from the Toyokawa family..."

Fengchuan Qinggao's tone revealed a hint of impatience, "If she exposes my current situation and tells An and Tiantong that I am no longer a member of the Fengchuan family, then I'm afraid your deal will not be concluded..."

Hoshikawa Taku was a little surprised, but this was also understandable.

After all, even Mutou knew that Xiangzi had left the Fengchuan family, so her mother would naturally have the corresponding channels to know about this matter.

After a moment of contemplation, he said calmly, "I don't think Miss Mori is the type to gossip. She should be able to see that you have a special purpose here and won't sabotage you."

Hoshikawa Taku paused and said meaningfully, "Unless there is some kind of irreconcilable hatred between you..."

For example, Mutou's mother, Mori Minami, is actually a female copper. She has always liked Toyokawa Mizuho, ​​but Toyokawa Kiyoshi "stole her love", making her unable to love him, and thus turned love into hatred...

This is not an unfounded guess by Taku Hoshikawa.

After all, Toyokawa Shoko herself is a "succubus". Takamatsu Touma, Nagasaki Suyo, and Mikado Hatsuka are all fascinated by her and regard her as their white moonlight.

As Xiangzi's mother, Mizuho Toyokawa may have even stronger "succubus blood".

"What deep hatred could there be?"

Toyokawa Seikao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"She's currently working at Win-Wing, a company funded by the Toyokawa family. I'm just worried she might tell other members of the Toyokawa family about me..."

After smoking a cigarette, Toyokawa Kiyoshi's mood gradually stabilized.

"You're right. She's not the type to gossip. She probably won't take the initiative to cause me trouble. I'm just worrying too much."

When Taku Hoshikawa and Kiyoshi Toyokawa returned to the room, An and Tendo's agents had already taken out a pen and paper and put on glasses, waiting to negotiate with them like professionals.

While negotiating the contract, Taku Hoshikawa clearly felt that the atmosphere had become much more serious.

With this professional agent around, it is difficult for Taku Hoshikawa to "PUA" An and Subaru, so as to further "optimize" the contract.

However, An and Subaru's families are wealthy, and they don't really care about the terms of the contract. What they are interested in is the resources promised by Hoshikawa Taku.

Therefore, after the final negotiation, the contract terms were still [base salary of 100,000 yen, 10% commission from performances and peripheral products, and a 10-year contract term.]

This is also consistent with the contract standards of Xiangzi, Boqi and others.

In fact, with An and Tendou's qualifications, An and Subaru's contract should actually be even more generous, with a share of at least 20%. However, it was also because of An and Subaru's mediation that the agent reluctantly agreed to this "newcomer contract".

Compared to the profit share from the contract, An Hesuba values ​​herself, Nina, Momoka and their band more. She doesn't want to be the only one to receive preferential treatment or get a higher share, which would cause discord within the team.

When An and Tiantong came back after finishing filming this scene, they saw the contract and did not express much objection. They signed their names in the agent column of the drafted contract.

"Subaru, you've grown up now. Once the official contract comes out, you can sign it yourself."

She turned her gaze towards An and Subaru, patted her granddaughter's hand gently, and spoke softly.

"grandmother!"

An Hemai's eyes were slightly red, and he excitedly threw himself into his grandmother's arms.

After the contract was finalized, Taku Hoshikawa and the others did not stay any longer. After a few pleasantries, they prepared to leave.

Afterwards, An and Tiantong still had filming tasks to do, so they did not stand up to see everyone off.

Just when Hoshikawa Taku and the others walked to the pavilion, they unexpectedly saw Mori Minami there.

She seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.

"If you don't mind, would you like to chat with me for a while? Mr. Toyokawa, and...this brother Hoshikawa."

She said with a smile on her face.

Chapter 190: Wakaba Mutsu was packed up and sent to the door by his mother.

Minami Mori is looking for Taku Hoshikawa and Kiyoshi Toyokawa.

Letting An and Subaru stay here for a while, they followed Mori Minami to a pond deep in the courtyard.

The water in the pool was rippling with light ripples, reflecting the shadows of the clouds moving across the sky.

The terrain here is open, and anyone approaching can be immediately noticed, making it a suitable place for secret conversations.

Minami Mori gently leaned on the wooden railing, her slender fingers slowly stroking the smooth wood grain, with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Toyokawa Seikao frowned and broke the silence first.

"Minami, what's the matter with you suddenly looking for me? Also, why did you call Xingchuan over as well?"

Now that there was no one else around, Fengchuan Qinggao was too lazy to maintain politeness and his tone became much more direct.

Hearing this, Mori Minami turned around, blinked, and the smile on her lips deepened.

"I'm just a little curious, how did you two get together? After all..."

She paused briefly, then said casually, "Brother Xingchuan's parents died in a car accident because their business with you failed. Logically, he should hate you, right?"

The air seemed to freeze at this moment.

Toyokawa Seikao's face suddenly darkened.

This incident has always been a pain for him, and like the death of his wife Mizuho, ​​it has caused him an indelible blow.

However, in this heavy atmosphere, Taku Hoshikawa suddenly stepped forward and took the initiative to stand out.

"First of all, Ms. Mori, don't call me brother."

He interrupted Mori Minami without hesitation and said calmly, "You can call me Hoshikawa or Taku-kun."

This name sounded too intimate for him to bear.

He met Mori Minami's gaze calmly and continued, "Secondly, Uncle Qinggao can't be blamed entirely for my parents' car accident. It's normal for businesses to have gains and losses. Although my family was indeed implicated by this incident, Uncle Qinggao himself suffered greater losses. He was even expelled from the family because of it."
