Chapter 137: Expo, Woman, Doctor
"Hello, Ms. Mariko, I'm Justin Hammer. We met two years ago in Tokyo!"
Justin Hammer looked at Mariko Yashida, who was wearing a professional suit and was tall, then looked at Tang Song, who was standing alone beside her. He adjusted his Black-rimmed Glasses, saw Mariko Yashida walk past him, and greeted her with a smile, extending his hand.
Behind Mariko Yashida, a red-haired young girl stepped forward warily, blocking Mariko Yashida and assuming a defensive stance from Japan Karate.
Mariko Yashida stopped, politely glanced at Justin Hammer, and quickly recalled Justin Hammer's Information in her mind.
Justin Hammer = Hammer Industries = The Federal Department of Defense's largest Weapon Supplier.
Thinking of this, Mariko Yashida's face immediately broke into a radiant Smile. She pushed aside the Bodyguard blocking her, stepped forward, and slightly bowed to shake Justin Hammer's hand:
"Mr. Hammer! Long time no see!
After you left, my grandfather mentioned you many times!"
Justin Hammer laughed:
"That's truly an honor. How is Mr. Yashida's health lately? I'll definitely visit him next time I have a chance to go to Tokyo!"
Mariko Yashida bowed slightly:
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Hammer. My grandfather is still the same, his health remains robust.
However, he is getting on in years. Due to health reasons, he couldn't attend the Celebration Banquet you hosted and didn't get a chance to congratulate you. He expressed deep regret about it! On his behalf, I congratulate you and Hammer Industries on becoming the Department of Defense's designated Weapon Supplier..."
Justin Hammer looked at Mariko Yashida's sincere tone and regretful Expression.
If it weren't for the fact that he had personally drafted the Invitations for the Celebration Banquet, and Ichiro Yashida's name had never appeared from beginning to end.
Just looking at Mariko Yashida's genuine appearance now, he might have actually believed her!
There were indeed people he had sent Invitations to who didn't come,
And they were all in this Venue.
One was Tang Song beside him, but Boss Tang had gone on vacation to Antarctica and sent his Chief Executive Officer to attend.
The other was the owner of this Stark Industries Expo before him, that sharp-tongued, arrogant guy! Alright, Justin Hammer admitted that sending an Invitation to this annoying Old Friend from college had a bit of a boastful element, but this damn arrogant guy never showed up from beginning to end...
This definitely didn't include Ichiro Yashida. After all, no matter how strong Yashida Corporation was, it was only limited to Japan.
To be honest, Justin Hammer didn't think much of Yashida Corporation. In his opinion, Japan was nothing more than a colony of the Federation.
No matter how rapid Japan's Economic development was, it was just a pig raised by the Federal Government. Whenever the Federal Economy declined and needed Nutrition, the first one to be slaughtered would naturally be the pig in the pen.
No matter how well Yashida Corporation developed, it was just the fattest pigs in the pigsty.
After exchanging pleasantries with Mariko Yashida, Justin Hammer took the initiative to introduce Tang Song beside him.
"Ms. Mariko, this is Mr. Tang Song, the Chairman of Tang Group, a City Councilor of New York City, and also a Director of our Hammer Industries..."
After Justin Hammer listed a string of titles, Mariko Yashida stared at Tang Song's handsome face for a few seconds, seemingly trying to recall something. After just a moment, her eyes lit up, and she gently bowed, taking the initiative to extend her hand to Tang Song.
"Hello, Mr. Tang!"
"Hello!" Tang Song shook Mariko Yashida's hand, and they released their grip immediately.
Mariko Yashida gave Tang Song a sweet Smile, and Tang Song nodded.
"Ms. Mariko, Tang, let's go in together!"
Justin Hammer didn't intend to introduce his female companion to Mariko Yashida.
He directly invited Tang Song and Mariko Yashida to enter the exhibition together.
Mariko Yashida politely walked beside the three of them, but maintained a distance of about two or three steps.
"Tang, didn't you not bring a female companion? How about this woman? She's the heir of the Yashida Family, also Asian, and beautiful!"
Justin Hammer looked at Mariko Yashida, who was keeping a few steps away from them, leaned towards Tang Song, and whispered.
Tang Song looked at Justin Hammer with some surprise, not expecting him to have this thought.
"I didn't realize, Mr. Hammer, you have a hobby of being a matchmaker!"
"Matchmaker?" Justin Hammer was a little confused.
"In Federation terms, is it Cupid? In European terms, it's Iceman, someone who breaks the ice!" Tang Song smiled, and subtly gestured towards Mariko Yashida: "But you should keep your Voice down, Ms. Mariko seems to be able to hear you!"
Tap, tap, tap, the sound of High Heels echoed in Justin Hammer's ears.
"Huh?" Justin Hammer turned his Head and met Mariko Yashida's half-smiling Gaze.
"So, Mr. Tang didn't invite a female companion? If you don't mind, may I have the honor?"
Mariko Yashida took two steps forward and stood before Tang Song.
Her height of 177 cm, paired with a pair of black Hermès High Heels, made her appear slightly taller than Justin Hammer when standing next to them.
However, standing beside Boss Tang, they complemented each other perfectly.
Mariko Yashida blinked her charming eyes, a gentle Smile on her face. Without waiting for Tang Song to reply, she took the initiative to link her arm with Tang Song's.
"Oh?!"
Justin Hammer watched from the side and let out a low exclamation of admiration, giving them a thumbs-up.
Tang Song felt a hint of softness against his arm and a waft of perfume. He looked at Mariko Yashida, who was holding his arm, with some Doubt.
"What is it, Mr. Tang? Do you think I'm not suitable to be your female companion?"
Mariko Yashida walked towards the Venue with Tang Song's arm linked in hers.
"The honor is all mine, I'm flattered!"
Tang Song smiled: "I just didn't expect..."
"Didn't expect me to be so proactive!"
Mariko Yashida held Tang Song's arm with her left hand, reached up to brush away a strand of hair, and looked at Tang Song with eyes that seemed to hold spring water, almost describable as alluring.
The most captivating part was that she also bit her lip slightly. Her languid demeanor was truly both pure and seductive.
"Perhaps Mr. Tang's charm is simply too great!?"
"Haha..."
Tang Song chuckled inwardly. He might believe it if a young girl said that, but a woman from a prominent Family?
Looks are Capital, but at Tang Song's Position, the Value of beauty is greatly diminished.
As long as you have Money and Power, while you can't guarantee your woman will always be eighteen, you can always find an eighteen-year-old woman.
Aside from a few exceptions, if Tang Song wanted to, he could see almost any female celebrity from Hollywood on his large bed that very night.
Beauty and looks are Capital, but at his Position, they are merely for novelty.
Ordinary beautiful women are like a big sister's hair, disposable!
A gentle embrace is a hero's grave. Tang Song was not the type to be unable to move his legs when he saw a beautiful woman.
