Kodansha, meeting room scene.
This moment was filled with shouts for Maijo Kyousuke to win the Climbing Dragon Award!
Jiang Liumei's tears of joy ran down her cheeks.
I did it, I really did it!
Jiang Liumei covered her face in excitement to prevent tears from flowing freely on her face.
Then, like an unsung hero, he silently walked towards the audience.
Because the glory at this moment belongs to Maijo Kyousuke, whom he admires.
I don't want to take away any of Maijo Kyousuke's light in this situation.
"Miss Jiang Liu, are you planning to just walk away?"
Before Eryu's beautiful feet stepped onto the downward steps, Gonda Manji's questioning voice rang in his ears.
What is coming will eventually come, and there is no way to avoid it.
Jiang Liumei clenched her fists, turned her head and looked at Gonda Wanji and said with a forced smile:
"Mr. Gonda Manji, do you have anything else to do?"
Gonda Manji pointed to the manuscript of "A Platycodon Flower" with an unusually serious expression:
"It's one thing for Teacher Wucheng to win the Climbing Dragon Award, but it's another thing for you to go on stage and angrily attack Chairman Miyoshi and me."
"You just plan to leave like this? Don't you plan to give me and Chairman Miyoshi an explanation?"
Gonda Manji's words were so majestic that the cheers from the audience fell silent instantly.
Because everyone was so happy, they seemed to have forgotten how outrageous Jiang Liumei's actions just now were!
I'm even more worried that Gonda Manji and Miyoshi Tetsu will make things difficult for Eru Meimei!
Eryumi knew very well that she had just angered Miyoshi Tetsu and Gonda Manji and might be blocked by them.
But those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Jiang Liumeili already knew that she was about to lose everything, so she simply said:
"Mr. Gonda Manji, what do you want me to explain to you and Chairman Miyoshi?"
"Teacher Wucheng's writing ability is obvious to all."
"Whether it is the writing style, the resonance of the story, the intrigue, or the aftertaste, it is almost unique in the world!"
"Originally, you were biased towards awarding the Dragon Climb Award to Izawa Motohiko in "Sarumaru's Vision", and that's why you did this!"
"What do you want me to explain to you?"
"Do you want me to tell you personally that it is because of the poor vision of you judges that this matter has reached this level?"
Jiang Liu's beautiful words made Quan Tian Wanzhi open his mouth, and he didn't utter a word for a long time.
The three judges, Takao Tsuchiya, Chen Shunchen, and Hiroshi Itsuki, all became a little embarrassed when they saw this scene.
On the one hand, some blame Gonda Manji. Even though the matter is over, why did he provoke the "bomber" Eryumei?
On the other hand, I also felt that Jiang Liumei was too ignorant of the world, and he had to make the situation so embarrassing when he could just apologize.
Just when everyone didn't know how Gonda Manji would embarrass Jiang Liumei.
Gonda Manji suddenly laughed loudly:
"Hahaha, Miss Jiang Liu, I think you have misunderstood."
"Although you and I have had disputes before, as a senior, I, Gonda Manji, will not retaliate against you."
"And to be honest, I quite like your sassy character. There are not many people with your courage in this era."
Eryumei has long been prepared for a new round of confrontation with Gonda Manji.
However, Gonda Manji had no intention of embarrassing him at all, which made Jiang Liumei confused for a moment:
"Mr. Gonda Manji? Then what do you want me to explain to you?"
Gonda Manji pointed to the manuscript of "A Platycodon Flower" on the table with a smile on his face:
"This short story manuscript was handed over to you by Mr. Kyousuke Maijo, right?"
"You said before that you are the editor-in-chief of the magazine department."
"But as far as I know, Kodansha doesn't have a magazine about short mysteries."
"If I guess correctly, you should be the newly hired founder of Kodansha, right?"
Jiang Liumei nodded, completely confused as to what Gonda Manji wanted to express.
Gonda Manji leaned on the podium with his elbows and crossed his fingers together, with a look that saw everything on his face:
"I was still thinking before, what is the charm of Mr. Maijo Keisuke that can make a promising magazine editor willingly give up his career to confront us judges."
"Just when I was puzzled, I found the answer in the story of "A Platycodon Flower"!"
The four judges, Takao Tsuchiya, Chen Shunchen, Toru Miyoshi, and Hiroshi Itsuki, were stunned for a moment when they heard Gonda Manji's words, and then their faces showed a look of sudden realization.
Gonda Manji looked at Jiang Liumei with a smile, and said to Jiang Liumei in a joking tone:
"Since Miss Jiangliu has just tied a "bomb" to me and Chairman Miyoshi that can only be chosen between two, then in order to show fairness, I will give you one back."
"Let's just satisfy the curiosity of all of us."
Gonda Manji cleared his throat and placed his hand on the manuscript of "A Platycodon Flower":
"Miss Eryu, when you rushed to the stage without hesitation to complain about injustice for Mr. Kousuke Maijo, there was no timidity or hesitation in your eyes."
"Is it because you are just like Ms. Suzue in the story? You have fallen deeply in love with Teacher Maijo Keisuke?"
"So, you are willing to bet your career on a Joruri drama?"
Gonda Manji's gossipy heart is almost engraved on his face:
"Miss Jiang Liu, please think carefully before answering my question."
"Otherwise, I will ask Chairman Miyoshi to ban you!"
When everyone in the Kodansha audience heard Gonda Manji's words, their anxious hearts slowly relaxed.
Because anyone with a discerning eye can understand the meaning behind Gonda Manji's words.
How is this making things difficult for Jiang Liumei?
This is clearly Gonda Manji who wants to lead a red line between Eryumi and Maijo Keisuke!
As long as Jiang Liumei nods her head now, then the past will be considered a thing of the past and let bygones be bygones!
Jiang Liumei is a genius, and she has a pair of eyes that can penetrate people's hearts. How could she not hear the meaning of Gonda Manji's words?
But he and Maijo Kyousuke are still in an ambiguous atmosphere at the moment.
I don’t even know what kind of attitude Maijo Kyousuke has towards me.
If he admits his feelings for Maijo Keisuke in front of so many people, it will definitely bring unnecessary trouble to Maijo Keisuke!
Thinking of this, Jiang Liumei fell into a dilemma.
Don’t love it? of course not!
I am a person who dares to love and hate, so it is not difficult to say that I love Maijo Kyousuke!
It's just because of this that I can't speak easily.
Because once he opened his mouth, this kind of thing was spread.
Maijo Keisuke will definitely be labeled with the "vicious remarks" of relying on the editor-in-chief of a magazine to get his position!
Miyoshi Toru looked at Jiang Liumei's hesitant look, and seemed to have guessed Jiang Liumei's concerns.
Even if you stand up to smooth things over for Jiang Liumei, you can still leave a step for yourself and Jiang Liumei:
"Brother Quan Tian, when you ask this kind of question, it means that you don't understand "A Platycodon Flower" at all, let alone the love and hatred between boys and girls!"
"Isn't what Mr. Maijo Keisuke wrote clearly enough in the book?"
"Love is no matter what! Love is like a moth flying into the flame!"
"You don't need a reason to like someone, and you can never hide your feelings when you like someone."
"Even if the person involved is telling the truth and denies it, love will still show in the eyes, right?"
"What do you mean by blocking? I don't want to play such boring games with people like you!"
After Miyoshi Toru finished speaking, he packed up everything and walked towards the audience.
Passing by Eryumei who was standing on the stage with a hesitant expression, Miyoshi Tetsu said calmly:
"Miss Jiang Liu, let's go?"
"Take me to your magazine department!"
"I can't wait to write a review for "A Platycodon Flower" written by Maijo Keisuke-sensei!"
When Eryumi heard that Toru Miyoshi was going to write a review for "A Platycodon Flower", the shock on her face was beyond words!
Because he never expected that Chairman Miyoshi Tetsu would smooth things over for him.
And as soon as Toru Miyoshi said these words, not only was his job saved, but his magazine was also revived!
Not to mention, with Maijo Keisuke's "A Platycodon Flower" and the comments of Miyoshi Toru, the then chairman of the Japan Mystery Writers Association, my magazine will be gilded with another layer of gold!
Thinking of this, Jiang Liumei bowed excitedly to the judges present, and then left the podium following Miyoshi Tetsu...
