Chapter 1336


    After that, Jiro sighed again with deep annoyance as h e said regretfully, "I''ve just arrived at Aurous


    Hill this morning. I came here directly immediately afterpleting the immigration procedures. I


    did not make it in time to go to the stadium to watch your match today, Miss Ito. I heard that you


    defeated your opponent in just one round today. I feel really regretful that I was not able to watch


    the match!" 7


    Nanako replied, "Mr. Kobayashi, you''re too kind." 3


    "From now on, I''ll definitely be there to cheer for you i n every single one of your matches, Miss Ito!"

    “To be honest, my Kobayashi Pharma sponsored thisbat and fighting championship. When the


    timees, I will be presenting the trophies to the winners of the championship. I can''t wait and I


    am already looking forward to the finals, where I will be presenting the champion’s trophy to you,


    Miss Ito!" 9


    Nanako replied humbly, "Mr. Kobayashi, before thepetition is over, no one knows for certain


    who will win the championship. Although I have confidence in myself, I dare not say that I''ll win the


    championship for certain."


    Jiro hurriedly said, "I believe that it won''t be a problem for you at all, Miss Ito!" 1


    Nanako smiled. After that, she remembered her


    father''s instructions and she said, "Mr. Kobayashi, it is already noon now. So, why don''t you stay


    and have lunch with me then?" 7


    When Jiro heard this, his heart was trembling in excitement. Therefore, he said excitedly, "It would


    be a n honor for me to have lunch with you, Miss Ito!"


    After that, Nanako said to Hiroshi, "Tanaka-san, please follow us to the dining area in the


    presidential suite. I want you to help and serve lunch for me and M r. Kobayashi." 7


    Although Nanako was the eldest youngdy of a big and powerful family in Japan, she had always


    been very independent. She was not like those other rich heirs who needed a lot of people to serve


    them and help them. 4


    Therefore, she would never ask Hiroshi to stay by her side to serve her on any other ordinary days.


    However, as she really did not want to be left alone with Jiro today, Nanako decided to keep Hiroshi


    by her side today to serve as a buffer. 9


    When Hiroshi heard the order given by the eldest youngdy, he naturally nodded without any


    hesitation at all. Jiro thought that Nanako was used to being served and waited on during her


    meals, so he did not take it to heart. After all, even if they were to eat at a restaurant, there would


    be waiters waiting on them too.


    After entering the dining room, Nanako sat directly across from Jiro.

    As the presidential suite was veryrge, the dining area in the presidential suite was likewise very


    spacious and luxurious. There was a rectangr Western dining table that could amodate up


    to twelve diners.


    As they were both seated on opposite ends of the dining table, there was also a certain distance


    between both of them. This made Nanako feel slightly more relieved.


    After sitting down, Jiro took the initiative to look for a topic to continue chatting with Nanako. So, he


    said, "It must have already been a long time since you’ve arrived at Aurous Hill, hasn''t it, Miss Ito?"


    1


    Nanako nodded and said, "Yes, it has been twenty days already." 1


    Jiro asked again, "I wonder if you''ve had a good time i n Aurous Hill, Miss Ito? This city is really very


    beautiful." 1


    Nanako asked faintly, "Mr. Kobayashi, have you been t o Aurous Hill before?"


    "Oh, this is my first time here.” After that, Jiro sighed a s he said, "To be honest, Aurous Hill is


    actually a very sad and depressing ce for me. Miss Ito, if it weren’t because you were


    participating in thepetition here, I would never have stepped into this city no matter how


    beautiful it is." 10


    Nanako asked in surprise, "Why do you say that, Mr. Kobayashi?"


    Jiro pretended to be sad as he said, "I have a rebellious elder brother who was so obsessed that he


    poisoned our father to death..."


    "The Kobayashi family issued a killing order to clean u p the mess and punish the traitor. My brother


    was killed by a bounty hunter in Aurous Hill some time ago. I don''t even know where his body is


    buried now..."
