Early the next morning, while Cao Zhiqiang was still sleeping soundly, someone rang the doorbell at his door, and it kept ringing.

If Cao Zhiqiang lived alone, faced with the doorbell ringing all the time, he would usually have to force himself out of bed to see who it was and curse a few words.

But since he lived with Akina Nakamori, he was too lazy to care about such things. He turned over, covered himself with a quilt and continued to sleep, leaving everything else to Akina Nakamori.

Sure enough, when she saw Cao Zhiqiang turned over and covered himself with a quilt and continued to sleep soundly, Akina Nakamori, who was also woken up and had most of the quilt taken away, could only sit up and rub her eyes, and looked around her helplessly and sweetly.

Cao Zhiqiang continued to sleep soundly while hugging the quilt.

After sighing, Akina Nakamori smiled slightly, hurriedly put on a pair of pajamas, then quietly got out of bed and left the bedroom.

Well, in fact, Akina Nakamori always wore clothes to sleep because she had been like this since she was a child.

But after living together with Cao Zhiqiang, she changed her custom and became like Cao Zhiqiang, sleeping naked.

At first, when she was asked by Cao Zhiqiang, she was a little uncomfortable. She only listened to Cao Zhiqiang out of willingness to obey. But as time went by, she realized that sleeping naked would be better.

If nothing else, at least the quality of sleep has definitely improved.

Especially after exercising with Cao Zhiqiang before going to bed, the quality of my sleep has improved, and the mild neurasthenia that I had previously has been cured.

It was only after the neurasthenia was cured that Akina Nakamori finally believed in Cao Zhiqiang. From now on, she would listen to whatever Cao Zhiqiang said.

For example, Cao Zhiqiang suggested that Akina Nakamori should eat a balanced diet, with meat, eggs and milk as the main component, vegetables and fruits as a supplement, and a diet with as few carbohydrates as possible. Nakamori Akina adopted this without reservation.

You must know that this kind of diet structure that mainly contains meat, eggs and milk, supplemented by vegetables and fruits, and sporadically mixed with carbohydrates is not the mainstream in Japan at all, let alone Nakamori Akina's eating habits.

A person's eating habits are often developed since childhood and are difficult to change when they grow up.

For example, many people in China who were poor when they were young and become rich when they grow up still like to eat millet porridge or vegetable dumplings and pickles. However, they are not very interested in abalone, ginseng, wings and tripe, so they only try it occasionally.

There are also some native rich people in the West, such as some grassroots oligarchs in Da Mao later. After getting rich, their favorite food is still the popular red cabbage soup and brown bread. On the contrary, they don't like to eat anything like Black Sea caviar.

In addition, the taste of your mother does not necessarily mean how delicious your mother's cooking is. It is just that you are used to eating, your body has adapted, and you have a memory.

Nakamori Akina's family owns a noodle shop, and she has been eating rice and noodles since she was a child, so she still eats these when she grows up. It's not that she can't afford a diet that's mainly meat, eggs, and milk, but she's not used to it.

As for fruits, she does like to eat them, but fruits in Japan have been ridiculously expensive since the 1970s. In the past, Akina Nakamori was just a little idol and couldn't afford to eat very good fruits, so she usually ate tomatoes as fruits.

In other words, compared to Koizumi Kyoko who dares to spend money and knows how to spend money, Nakamori Akina, a girl from a poor family, has to be much more cautious about spending money, and compared to the Japanese, she is also much more frugal and frugal.

Regardless of how she looks on stage and screen, Akina Nakamori mostly wears all kinds of fancy clothes, with a rebellious girl style as her main style, but in fact that is only like this on the stage.

Privately, Akina Nakamori usually doesn't wear makeup or dress up. She is no different from an ordinary girl next door. If you don't look carefully, you might not be able to recognize who she is.

Akina Nakamori without makeup only highlights one tenderness and whiteness. Only with makeup, Akina Nakamori is the diva on the stage who can turn all living beings upside down.

In other words, Akina Nakamori was originally not used to eating recipes based on meat, eggs, and milk. Even at the beginning, she was lactose intolerant and would suffer from diarrhea when drinking milk.

It was only because Cao Zhiqiang said it was good for the body and Cao Zhiqiang liked this recipe that she persisted, but the main purpose was to eat it with Cao Zhiqiang.

But later, as she continued to eat like this, coupled with the fitness exercises such as yoga, running, skipping and swimming recommended by Cao Zhiqiang, especially after insisting on running five kilometers every day and skipping one to five hundred times, she obviously felt that her body had changed.

For example, I am more energetic, more powerful, more energetic, and even my muscles are more obvious.

To put it simply, my physical fitness has improved significantly, and my mood has even been affected, making me more and more confident.

The effect was so good, of course Akina Nakamori believed in Cao Zhiqiang even more. She almost became Cao Zhiqiang's little fan girl. She did whatever Cao Zhiqiang said. It is not an exaggeration to say that she was brainwashed by Cao Zhiqiang.

That is to say, Cao Zhiqiang still has some conscience, but if his mentality is darker, with Nakamori Akina's current state of obedience, he may not be able to do anything.

At least Cao Zhiqiang can't play with whips and candles. Not only is it disrespectful to Akina Nakamori, but he himself can't accept it.

The doorbell continued to ring with no intention of stopping.

"It's coming, it's coming!" Akina Nakamori came to the living room and had to shout, "Stop pressing the button, wait a moment, it's coming!"

Soon, Nakamori Akina, who was only wearing pajamas, rushed to the door in a few steps, then frowned and asked through the door: "Who is it? What's the matter?"

A young man's voice came from outside the door: "Ah, is this Miss Akina? I am Kozo Nagayama from Fuji TV!"

Upon hearing this, Akina Nakamori was stunned, and then immediately said: "Ah, is it really Director Nagayama?"

"Yes." Yongshan Kozo said from outside, "It's presumptuous to come here, but I really have something big to ask Cao Sang. It's presumptuous to come here, please forgive me."

Nakamori Akina then opened the door, looked at Nagayama Kozo outside the door, nodded slightly and said, "Hello, Director Nagayama."

"Hello, Miss Akina." Nagayama Kozo bowed lightly, then scratched his head in embarrassment, "Um, I'm sorry, is Cao Sang at home?"

Akina Nakamori nodded: "At home, but he is still sleeping."

After a brief pause, Nakamori Akina continued to explain: "That's right, he worked very late last night, wrote all night, and slept very late, so that's why."

"Ah, I understand, I understand." Yongshan Kozo nodded, "It is normal for a great writer like Cao Sang to go to bed late and get up late. In fact, I am similar."

After a pause, Yongshan Kosan said: "Actually, I didn't want to disturb him at first, but I was so excited that I didn't sleep all night. Then, I suddenly wanted to see Cao Sang and convey this good news to him immediately.

The news, therefore, came.”

Akina Nakamori was stunned: "Nani? You didn't sleep all night?"

Yongshan Kozo nodded: "Yes, I haven't slept since last night. I wanted to sleep, but I couldn't, so I came here.

I don’t have any other intention, I just want to announce the good news to Cao Sang.”

Akina Nakamori was stunned. She was about to ask what she was happy about, but seeing the excited look on her face, she stepped aside and said, "Well, come in first, let's talk about it."

"Um..." Nagayama Kozo hesitated for a moment, but bowed deeply, "Then I'll excuse you."

After Nakamori Akina let Nagayama Kozo into the room and took him to the restaurant to sit down, she asked: "Tea or coffee?"

"Tea." Yongshan Kosan said, "Any kind of tea will do."

Nakamori Akina nodded: "Well, is black tea okay? Here is the Keemun black tea brought by Zhiqiang Sang from China. It is said to be one of the three major black teas in the world. It is delicious and does not hurt the stomach. It tastes good too. It is the Queen of England's favorite drink.

Do you want some of the black tea varieties?"

"Yeah, let's take this." Nagayama Kozo smiled and nodded.

While Nakamori Akina was making tea for Nagayama Kozo, Nagayama Kozo also took a few deep breaths to calm down his excitement.

At the same time, Nagayama Kozo was still secretly sizing up Nakamori Akina and secretly liked her.

In his opinion, Nakamori Akina deliberately made tea to give herself time to stabilize herself.

After all, his body is shaking slightly until now, which is a sign that the excitement has not passed.

"She is indeed the woman that Cao Sang has fallen in love with." Yongshan Kozo praised, "She is as careful as hair and considerate to every detail. What a woman. Cao Sang is so lucky!"

Well, this is simply Nagayama Kozo overthinking and just making up his own mind.

In fact, it was Akina Nakamori who had the habit of making tea whenever someone came over, because it could satisfy her need to show off.

After all, Cao Zhiqiang had said before that the Keemun black tea he brought was authentic and top-quality, the queen of black teas, and the favorite drink of the Queen of England and the British royal family.

Although there is no Internet now, there is no way to verify it, and Akina Nakamori has an average education, so she doesn’t know much about these things.

But in the eyes of Akina Nakamori, Cao Zhiqiang is a great writer with profound knowledge, so he must be right, so when he said that Qimen Black Tea is the queen of black tea and the Queen of England’s favorite, it must be right.

Use this kind of tea to entertain guests, and secretly tell the origin of this tea in a calm tone. People who have never experienced it will not understand the refreshing feeling.

In fact, it is not only this kind of top-quality black tea, but also other luxury foods such as Wuyishan Dahongpao, Oiran coffee, Romanée-Conti red wine, Moutai liquor, Black Sea caviar, bluefin tuna, Australian Wagyu beef, etc., all available here.

Basically, every time Cao Zhiqiang went out for a stroll, he would bring some top-notch luxury food and drinks, so that Akina Nakamori was stunned.

Don't ask where it came from, just ask, it was a gift from a friend.

How should I put it? At first, Akina Nakamori asked where it came from, but then she stopped asking at all.

On the contrary, Nakamori Akina thoughtfully bought two large refrigerators and two large freezers, both of which were used to store the various luxury foods and drinks brought by Cao Zhiqiang.

For example, at the last noon dinner before the filming of the TV series, why did Nakamori Akina try her best to invite Koizumi Kyoko to come over to reminisce and have a drink after the dinner? It was just a cover for not seeing old friends for many days. The bigger reason was that she wanted to show off.

After all, Cao Zhiqiang said that the origin of these things is not very legitimate. Nakamori Akina should keep a low profile, stop talking nonsense, and just eat it secretly.

But the problem is, if you don’t know these good ingredients, good drinks, and so on, that’s it. After you know it, you can only eat and drink secretly. What’s the point of that?

For example, Romanée-Conti, Petrus, the top-quality red wines from these places, if you drink them secretly by yourself without showing off to others, the taste is not much different from the ordinary red wine you drink. Anyway, that's how it seems to Akina Nakamori.

.

What's more, Cao Zhiqiang doesn't usually drink, even if it's top-notch red wine.

The same goes for Moutai.

Although Moutai is very famous, it is also very famous in Japan, and the aroma is really fragrant.

But once Maotai liquor enters the throat, it is similar to other ordinary liquors, with one word: spicy!

At least that's how Nakamori Akina feels, and Cao Zhiqiang feels the same way.

So, if Cao Zhiqiang really wanted to drink, he would buy some beer and drink it back.

However, if you are a good friend who you can trust, then these things can be used and talked about openly.

For example, Tomioka Nobuo and Watanabe Yuno, who have a fairly good relationship with Cao Zhiqiang and are frequent guests here, can be said.

But these people are all friends of Cao Zhiqiang, not Akina Nakamori.

Since Akina Nakamori debuted, she has not had many friends. The only one she can truly call a friend is Kyoko Koizumi.

In the past, Koizumi Kyoko was very busy, and Nakamori Akina was always busy in love, and both of them neglected each other.

It wasn't until the last dinner party before filming the TV series that Nakamori Akina and Koizumi Kyoko met again.
