I can only tear up.

Shuya opened his phone to ask where he was, only to find that Kyousuke had sent him a lot of messages on LINE.

The latest few Line messages are all filled with crying emojis.

How miserable.

Shuya told him to wait at the school gate and had his men bring him over.

A few minutes later, Kyousuke arrived, his hair disheveled from flying.

Hahaha! What kind of look is that?!

Kirino laughed loudly without any mercy, Ayase couldn't bear it and tugged at her arm.

"You bastard!"

Kyousuke only dared to criticize Kirino and not the others.

He slunk down next to Uesugi, thinking that he had to eat his fill to make up for the sudden thrill of being lifted to the heavens.

"Is everyone here? Let's see what we want to eat."

Shuya let them look at the menu themselves.

Kyousuke and Uesugi were engrossed in watching, while the girls chatted amongst themselves, unable to stay quiet at all.

Haruno continued to work on Yuigahama's affection level, asking her what she wanted to eat and recommending some dishes.

"Shuya, aren't you going to watch?"

Mai was sitting next to Shuya, asked.

"There's nothing in particular I'd like to eat."

"Yeah."

After exchanging a few words with Mai, Shuya sensed a powerful aura approaching from outside the room; it was probably the restaurant owner.

He went out and exchanged a few perfunctory words with his boss, who rushed back, telling him not to personally entertain him and to go about his business, thus successfully persuading him to leave.

Shuya dislikes coming to the shops run by the Alliance because his subordinates are too obsequious, which is annoying.

He turned and went back to his room, where a waiter followed him in to take his order. They rattled off a long list of dishes and ordered a huge amount of food.

There were many extraordinary individuals present; their appetites were, to say the least, enormous.

While waiting for the food to be served, the girls chatted animatedly, and Uesugi and Kyousuke also chatted idly about trivial matters.

Shuya also got down to business, discussing the live broadcast with Mai.

So when are you free?

Shuya asked Mai about her schedule.

"I don't have work this week, except for Sunday when I need to have a meeting with Producer Aoki."

Mai said, "My school also has midterms, so I asked Ms. Maeda not to schedule any work this week."

Moreover, she had to attend the firm's celebration yesterday, so she had a reason not to work this week.

"Is that so? I'm not free on Saturdays and Sundays either."

Shuya said.

I do voice acting on Saturday, and I have to go to a meeting with Mai on Sunday.

He asked, "How about tonight?"

Mai was indifferent. "Anything is fine. As long as you feel it won't be too rushed."

If we rush things, there will be insufficient publicity, resulting in many people not even knowing that there was a live broadcast.

"It's okay, we can start later."

Shuya didn't care whether he was in a hurry or not; he probably wouldn't have much time to do live broadcasts in the future.

Since we've decided to do some promotion, we'll be busy from now on, so let's do it today since we have some free time.

"It's your decision."

Mai was just there to keep him company; she had no intention of interfering with his decision.

Shuya nodded, then messaged Maeda Saori, deciding to do a live broadcast tonight.

After receiving the news, she went to Inoue Hikoo's company to coordinate, prepare the venue and equipment, and also design the publicity process.

Everything is handled by someone else, Shuya and relax.

Comfortable.

Having finalized tonight's schedule, Shuya tapped the table to attract everyone's attention. "I've decided to do a live broadcast tonight. Could you guys help me out and promote it on Twitter?"

"All right."

"Learn."

I just can't do anything with you.

The girls answered in a jumbled mess, then started chatting again.

Uesugi Futaro stared with dead fish eyes, feeling he couldn't take it anymore.

Although all the girls here are very pretty and pleasing to the eye... they're also incredibly talkative!

So annoying!

Section 562, Chapter 523: So skilled it's heartbreaking.

Thinking of this, Uesugi Futaro couldn't help but say to Kyousuke, "Takaita, it would be great if there were more men in our agency."

Upon hearing this, Kyousuke froze completely.

Hua Q! What did he mean by that?!

He felt his brain trembling. He had been in the industry for quite a while and had seen all sorts of works.

Of course... I also know about gay stuff; many male voice actors do that kind of work.

So when Uesugi said that, Kyousuke immediately misunderstood.

Thinking about it carefully, Uesugi really does seem to be uninterested in women...

"..."

Kyousuke fell silent, nervously moving his chair away slightly.

Fortunately, just as Kyousuke was panicking, Uesugi added, "There's too much pressure with so many girls. Only a playboy like Inoue could handle Inoue."

"Yes, really? Thank goodness..."

Kyousuke wiped the sweat from his brow; he'd been terrified just now.

Shuya glanced at the two of them but said nothing.

Ignore it.

He turned to look at Haruno and Yuigahama.

Yuigahama Haruno that she's practically telling him what color underwear she's wearing today.

"Haha, I didn't expect Yukino- chan's school life to be so exciting."

Haruno showed a reliable older sister smile.

She was very satisfied to have heard so much information about her younger sister.

It's a bit of a shame that Yukino didn't have any particularly embarrassing experiences.

Although calm and collected Yukino is adorable, she's definitely most endearing when she's troubled and wavering.

(Right, Shu-chan!)

Haruno looked up Shuya.

Shuya had absolutely no idea what she was doing.

(?)

He gave her a questioning look, only to receive a look from her as she looked at her companion.

(As expected of Shu-chan!)

Haruno assumed that Shuya understood what she meant.

Actually, they're not on the same wavelength at all.

Shuya scratched his head and turned to reply to the others.

After chatting for a while, the dishes we had ordered were served one after another.

Shuya tasted the dishes. The owner hadn't lied. These dishes had a familiar feel to him; they tasted like the ones he had every year when he attended the annual meeting in the Monster City.

They really did bring the chef and ingredients; these dishes are undoubtedly better than Mai and the others make.

Everyone enjoyed the meal. Kyousuke, determined to get their money's worth, ate the most, while Uesugi was considering whether he could pack some to take home for his sister to try as well.

The chef's skills are so good that Shuya couldn't help but eat a little more.

We chatted and ate, and it took quite a while to finish.

After lunch, it was almost time for them to leave.

Many of you here will have work to do later.

Just before disbanding, Haruno suddenly asked Yuigahama, "Yui- chan, did Shu-chan try to persuade you to join our agency?"

"This..."

Yuigahama a little uncertain. Shuya had invited her to work before, but she wasn't sure if he really wanted her to join Hanazawa Agency. (Haruno said, "I think Yui- chan would be perfect for our agency. She has a beautiful voice and is pretty.")

Hyakka nodded, "Isn't it pretty good? It should be able to attract a lot of otaku to become fans. They'll follow new, pretty voice actresses, making it easy to gain popularity."

Her words were too real; there are still too many idiots in the world.

Kirino also agreed, "Yui- chan-senpai can be a model too. It's not just our magazine; voice actor magazines love to use pretty voice actresses on the cover to trick people into buying them."

Kirino knows all this very well.

Ayase genuinely thought she was amazing, but Kirino panicked. "No, no, no, it's nothing, it's just... it's just that guy has too many collections! I saw them all, I hate it, it's disgusting, he's a pervert!"

Her finger pointed at Kyousuke.

"Ha?!"

Kyousuke was stunned, but seeing Kirino so flustered, he couldn't bring himself to argue.

He said, somewhat frustrated, "Well, not that many..."

Ayase didn't seem to mind, and laughed, "Kirino's brother is definitely a boy; it's quite normal for him to collect these things."

Because I don't care, it doesn't matter what.

"Right..."

Kyousuke nodded weakly.

Most of the people present knew the truth, but no one was so idle as to point it out.

Kirino's outburst dampened Haruno's enthusiasm for Yuigahama join the agency.

She had almost had her fill.

However, her words seemed to have planted a seed in Yuigahama's heart.

Haruno stood up and said with a smile, "I'm full, I'm leaving, bye~"

Ignoring everyone else's reactions, she unexpectedly ruffled Yukino's hair a few times, then ran off laughing.

"A truly self-centered person."

Hyakka continued to comment on Haruno. It wasn't that she disliked Haruno, but she always felt like making fun of her.
