“You have no idea, let me tell you…” Machida Sonoko rambled on about the past, “I was really angry back then, but then I found out that he was just deliberately trying to make me angry, and then I got even angrier.”

Kobayashi Megumi glanced at Kobayashi Sora, "Well... at least the result is good."

“If you had been more polite back then, I might have agreed.” Machida Sonoko glared at Kobayashi Sora. “But you had to do it that way!”

"You can say whatever you want now, but the editor you found for Shiyu before was a woman, right? No matter how nice I am, would you agree to let me be her editor?"

Machida Sonoko: "So you don't feel like you did anything wrong at all, right?"

To be honest, as a member of society, Machida Sonoko doesn't feel that Kobayashi Sora's actions were wrong. Acting within the bounds of the law for one's own purposes is at most just annoying.

"No, looking back now, I was definitely wrong."

"Huh?" Machida Sonoko was quite surprised. "Really?!"

“Of course it’s true.” Kobayashi Sora looked at Kobayashi Megumi. “If I had met Megumi earlier, I could have asked her to be Shiyu’s editor, and the conflict between us would not have existed.”

Kobayashi Megumi gently poked Kobayashi Sora's cheek, "Who would help you right after meeting you...?"

"You."

"Meow~" Nian Gao meowed, as a witness for Kobayashi Sora.

Machida Sonoko began to understand why Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri felt inexplicably irritated when they mentioned the Kobayashi couple.

The doorbell rang, and Kobayashi Sora got up to open the door.

"Lanlan!" Eriri called out loudly, "Your godmother is here to play with you!"

"Take it easy..." Kasumigaoka Utaha changed her shoes and handed the bag in her hand to Kobayashi Sora. "I bought some new beans."

"Lightly roasted Yirgacheffe?" Kobayashi Sora took a sniff. "You've been into this style lately?"

"Just trying it out, it's not expensive anyway," Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled. "Please~"

"Leave it to me." Kobayashi Sora took the coffee beans to find the grinder.

"Little Shi~" Machida Sonoko beckoned, "How's the animation going lately?"

Chapter 750 Departure to the Beach

"So far, things are going relatively smoothly," Kasumigaoka Utaha said, tossing her hair. As the weather gets warmer, long hair is becoming a real challenge. "But the real hurdle will be after the broadcast."

Everything is fine before it airs, but once it airs, if there's a problem with just one episode, a whole series of problems will follow.

When a problem cannot be solved in a short period of time, the only option is to release a compilation episode.

In other words, they re-edited footage from previous episodes into a single episode, ostensibly as a plot recap, but in reality, it was just a way to buy time for production and drag out the runtime.

"Take it slow, it'll all be resolved eventually," Kobayashi Megumi comforted her. "Didn't the voice actor issue get resolved very well before?"

"That's all thanks to you guys." Kasumigaoka Utaha casually took the disposable towel handed to her by Kobayashi Megumi and wiped herself inside her clothes.

Summer is such a hassle.

"Don't say that," Kobayashi Megumi waved her hand. "Shiyu did so much work, but she's giving all the credit to us."

Eriri, on the other side, headed straight for Ran Kobayashi and slapped Akane Akasaka on the leg, saying, "You better watch yourself!"

“There’s a base layer inside,” Akane Akasaka glared at Eriri with displeasure and adjusted her posture. “You should at least show some respect to the person who’s guiding you.”

"Let's talk about it when you've completely quit drinking." Eriri snorted, her expression softening as she looked at Ran Kobayashi. "Did you find these stones?"

"Lanlan found it with her parents," Xiaolin Lan replied with a smile. "How was it?"

"Wow!" Eriri picked up a stone, looking at the layers of patterns on it. "These patterns are quite beautiful. You must have been looking for them for a long time, right?"

"Yes, yes, this one is amazing too!" Ran Kobayashi exclaimed with delight. "Does Eriri's mom know about stones?"

“Even if you don’t understand,” Eriri said, carefully examining the stone, “it’s beautiful just the way it is.”

Xiaolin Ran suggested, "Na Yingli's mom, let's go collect stones together next time!"

“Okay… no.” Eriri shook her head. “It’s so hot in the summer, I don’t want to go out.”

"It's very cool by the river."

"No, no, no..." Eriri quickly waved her hands, "It's getting hot by the river now. If we're talking about coolness, the seaside is the only place that's a bit better..."

Eriri noticed that Ran Kobayashi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Could it be...?

"Daddy, Daddy!" Xiaolin Lan ran towards Xiaolin Kongqing, who was making coffee.

"Be careful with the hot water," Kobayashi Sora warned.

"Dad," standing next to Kobayashi Sora, Kobayashi Ran looked up at her little face, "Let's go play at the beach!"

"Why did you suddenly think of this?" Kobayashi Sora looked up and saw Eriri looking away somewhat guiltily.

Ah... I understand.

"Mom~" Kobayashi Sora called out.

Kobayashi Megumi responded softly, "What?"

"Lanlan wants to go to the beach."

Ran Kobayashi and her mother reiterated, "Let's go to the beach! Let's go to the beach!"

"Hmm... okay." Kobayashi Megumi nodded. "Let's all go together."

Kasumigaoka Utaha tossed away the wet disposable towel. "Great idea."

Xiaolin Lan jumped up happily, "Yay!!!" startling Nian Gao.

"I'm not going." Akane Akasaka had a look on her face that said, "Don't drag me into this."

"Huh?" Eriri asked, puzzled. "Don't you like the beach?"

“There are so many people at the beach at this time of day,” Akane Akasaka frowned. “It’s so annoying.”

Eriri understood. "You hate being hit on?"

Akane Kousaka corrected, "I hate humans."

Eriri: "......" As expected of you.

"Isn't Akane's mom going?" Ran Kobayashi gently nudged Akane Akasaka. "Come on, come on~"

“If you’re worried about crowds…” Kobayashi Sora handed the coffee to Kasumigaoka Utaha, “I have a good place to go.”

-

"Lanlan!" With her white hair flying, Lan Qiansha called out to Xiaolin Lan from a great distance.

"Auntie Xiaoqian!" Xiaolin Lan opened her arms to greet her, but was hugged by Lan Qiansha, whose little hands skillfully touched her hair.

"You still like it so much..." Lan Qiansha remembered that when Kobayashi Ran was little, she wanted to eat her hair.

“Lanlan has grown a lot taller,” Shibuya Kanon gestured.

"You're even prettier now." Ye Yuelian gently rubbed Xiaolin Lan's little face.

"Let Aunt Coco give me a hug!" Tang Coco gave Xiaolin Lan a big kiss on the cheek. "So cute!"

"Keep your voice down..." Ping An Ming Jin, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and large sunglasses, said, "You're so cute~"

What was once an exaggerated style of dress has now become an outfit that I have to maintain.

Behind her was a huge billboard featuring Ping An Ming Jin with bright blonde hair, holding a drink, and the catchy slogan: "A refreshing summer!"

"Everyone~" Kobayashi Megumi reminded them, "It's time!"

The crowd boarded the ship in a grand procession, and the ship set sail, passing under the Rainbow Bridge, through Tokyo Bay, past Yokohama, and heading towards the Pacific Ocean.

"Wow!!!" Ran Kobayashi exclaimed, looking out from the deck, "I can't see the end!"

I originally wanted to go to the beach, but I ended up at sea.

The novel experience filled Ran Kobayashi with immense joy.

Kobayashi Sora stayed by her side to prevent the little one from falling.

He initially thought that Xiaolin Lan would get seasick, but it turned out that she only felt a little unwell at first, and felt better after eating an ice cream.

In comparison...

"Ah~ um~" Tang Keke let out a weak moan.

"I'm telling you, you're not even as good as Lanlan," Ping An Mingjin said, fanning her from the side. "How come you're still seasick after all this time?"

"You're so annoying..." Tang Keke replied listlessly.

"Have some water," Kobayashi Megumi handed Tang Keke a water bottle and medicine. "Kong Qing prepared seasickness medicine, which may help alleviate the symptoms."

"Thank you..." Tang Keke struggled to sit up, took a pill, and drank a large gulp of water.

Ping An Mingjin sighed, "Shouldn't you be getting used to it by now?"

"Who do you think is to blame?" Tang Keke complained. "If it weren't for all your tasks, I could have gone to bed earlier last night."

"I didn't sleep for long either, you're busy and I'm busy too!"

"Alright, alright," Kobayashi Megumi waved her hand, "You two rest together."

"That's a good premise." Akane Akasaka gradually formed an idea in her mind, "A popular star and her best friend/manager in a love-hate relationship, something like that..."

"Since you've come all this way, don't think about creative things," Machida Sonoko said helplessly. "How about you get some rest?"

“This is a break for me,” Akane Kousaka said, tilting her head. “I didn’t expect so many people to come.”

"That's why I didn't let my brother come," said Shiwajima, who was chatting with Kasumigaoka Utaha, her voice firm. "Absolutely not."

Mayu Sagara nodded vigorously, "That's right!"

Chapter 751 Sunrise at Sea

Hashima Iori knew Hashima's character well, and Sagara Mayu also knew Sagara Fumio's wrathful nature.

They couldn't control how glamorous things were outside, but knowing their brother's true nature, they would never allow Iori Hashima and Fumio Sagara to come into contact with the women around them.
