How to raise a random guy's wife

Chapter 136 is progressing smoothly.

Since it was Kato Megumi's own idea, Kobayashi Sora had no intention of stopping her.

"Alright then," Kobayashi Sora sighed, "Do you need my help planning the route?"

"Why are you meddling when girls go out to play?" Eriri hugged Kato Megumi's arm. "Go away, go play by yourself."

Kobayashi Sora was about to say something when her phone vibrated; it was a new email.

"We've all gotten together..." Kobayashi Sora put away her phone. "That's good. Megumi, could you please take care of the mochi for a few days?"

"Sure," Kato Megumi nodded. "Another business trip?"

"I suppose so." Kobayashi Sora showed the contents of the email. "Do you remember the previous celebration?"

"Kane and Coco did a great job, it's a pity they didn't get first place."

"After all, our opponents are the Tokyo-area school idol group Retsuhi Jounen, who has been around for a long time and was the representative of the previous LoveLive National Tournament. It's normal for us to lose," Kobayashi Sora smiled. "But this is also an opportunity."

"How to say?"

"Although we are rivals, we have had some contact after all. Now that we've made contact, we should definitely have some in-depth exchanges. I did a little research and found that they come from an island, their stage performances are passionate and unrestrained, and their costumes combine elements of samba and Victoria's Secret. In order to increase the popularity of their hometown, they hold a live show on their hometown, Shenjin Island, every summer."

"To increase popularity, does that mean the more people who participate, the better?"

"That's exactly what I meant, so I asked someone to contact them and suggested that the Ke Xiang group wanted to learn from them. I didn't expect to receive such a warm response."

"Hmm, so we're going to Kikugaoka Girls' High School next? It shouldn't take too long, right?"

"And there's also my senior's new book." Kobayashi Sora looked somewhat helpless. "Because it requires coordination with the region, we need to keep in touch with the regional leaders to discuss specific details. I've done this kind of work before. It involves endless approvals, signatures, and stamps. Everyone is afraid that if something goes wrong, the responsibility will fall on them, so they desperately drag others down with them. The work efficiency is outrageously low... What I mean is, it may take quite a long time to finish."

Keep it up!

"Ah."

So...

Eriri is holding a rice cake.

Have I been ignored by these two guys again without even realizing it?

-

"Welcome." This was the first time Kobayashi Sora had met the Retsujin Hot-Blooded Duo since the last celebration.

Hiiragi Maho, possessing stunning beauty and elegant demeanor, and Seizawa Yuna, with a cheerful and warm personality like a sunflower.

Without glamorous costumes, Retsujin's natural beauty is even more captivating. Hiiragi Maho's smile is elegant, while Seizawa Yuna's smile is more lively, revealing her adorable shark teeth.

"We were really startled when someone contacted us suddenly!" Yuna Seizawa greeted him familiarly, "Hello, Mr. Kobayashi."

"Just call me Xiaolin."

"When we received your email, we were discussing whether or not to invite Kaoru," Hiiragi Maho chuckled. "I didn't expect you to be the ones to contact us first."

"It seems I did something unnecessary."

"No!" Yuna Seizawa waved her hand.

Hiiragi Maho explained, "Yuna was wondering whether she should come directly, but I felt that would be a bit presumptuous. Fortunately, you contacted me."

"Trust me," Kobayashi Sora replied with a polite smile, "they will be very happy if you go directly there."

"We still have time!" suggested Shengze You Nai. "Where are they now? Let's go straight there!"

“Yuna,” Hiiragi Mao looked at her lively companion, “if we go directly there, even if others are unwilling, it will be difficult for them to say no.”

"From what I know them, they would be very willing."

“Speaking of which…” Yuna Seizawa stared curiously at Sora Kobayashi, “What does Kobayashi do? Is she Kaoru’s manager? I thought they were independent school idols…”

“Your idea isn’t wrong,” Kobayashi Sora thought for a moment. “Actually, we have a cooperative relationship, well… more like friends. I help them with some odd jobs, and they also make some music for me.”

"Music?" Hiiragi Mao asked curiously. "What's your job...?"

“Besides high school students…” Kobayashi Sora handed over her business card, “I’m also the representative of RER.”

“Impressive,” Hiiragi Maho said, taking the business card. “Young and promising.”

"What is RER?" Yuna Seizawa looked at Masao Hiiragi with a puzzled expression.

Hiiragi Maho was just being polite; she had no idea what RER was. "This..."

"It's a doujin circle. Although it's quite large, it's normal for people who don't know much about ACG not to know about it," Kobayashi Sora explained, trying to smooth things over. "They're at Shibuya-kun's cafe right now. Let's go there together."

-

"Welcome..." Shibuya Kanon greeted him habitually, then smiled when she saw who it was. "Kobayashi, you're here."

"It's not just me." Kobayashi Sora stepped aside, revealing the two people behind her. "Look who's here?"

"Eh—!" Shibuya Kanon exclaimed in surprise.

"Hello," Hiiragi Maho greeted gracefully.

“(?)Papa~” Seizawa Yuna made the signature move of the fiery passion of the blazing sun.

Tang Keke, who was eating shaved ice, suddenly looked dazed and approached Ping An Mingjin, saying, "Hurry up and pinch Keke's cheek!"

"Huh?" Tang Keke spoke in Chinese, which Ping An Mingjin couldn't understand at all.

"I told you to pinch Coco's cheek!" Tang Coco reiterated.

“Okay.” Ping An Mingjin reached out and pinched Tang Keke’s face.

"It doesn't hurt." Tang Keke had an expression that said, "I knew it!" "It was a dream!"

Imagine your idol appearing right in front of you.

Ping An Ming Jin looked speechless. "You just ate so much shaved ice that your face is numb."

Hiiragi Maho and Seizawa Yuna exchanged a smile; it seemed Kobayashi Sora was right.

-

"After that, it's simple." Kobayashi Sora said, holding the phone. "Both sides were interested in collaborating, and they hit it off immediately. During the summer vacation, Kanon, Coco, and Sumire will be guests at the 'Hot Summer Passion' performance on the island."

"It went very smoothly," came Megumi Kato's voice from the phone. "That's great."

"Actually, there are still some problems, but we will find a way to solve them gradually. After all, the performance is during the summer vacation, and they can practice well during this time."

"Is it next up that the senior student's business?"

"Hmm, I don't know how long it will take yet. Thank you for your hard work, Nian Gao."

"It's not hard work at all."

Chapter 137 The Focus Is You

Kato Megumi put down her phone and gently scratched the rice cake's neck.

"What did Kobayashi say?" Eriri, who was sketching in her sketchbook, looked up.

"It went fairly smoothly," Kato Megumi replied. "The rest is about my senior's new book."

"They're really making a big fuss..." Eriri thought of the events surrounding Kasumigaoka Utaha's new book and felt a pang of envy... She wasn't envious at all.

Eriri turned her head to the side, her gaze suddenly pausing. "Ah, don't move now."

"Eh?"

"Don't move."

"Oh..." Kato Megumi quieted down, but for some reason, the mochi in her arms suddenly slipped out of her embrace. "Um, mochi..."

"Never mind that, the important thing is you."

"So you're drawing me..."

"if not?"

"Oh......"

......

......

"Is it not ready yet?" Kato Megumi asked.

How many times do I have to tell you not to move before you understand?

"At least let me use my mouth."

"Say what you want to say."

"I don't know much about it, but I do work in this field..."

What does "our kind of work" mean?

"It's about making games, drawing comics, writing novels, and things like that..."

“ACGN,” Eriri summarized succinctly.

"what?"

Eriri explained while she was busy, "Anime, manga, games, light novels."

"This is it... I don't really know much about it either."

"You sound like a mother who doesn't understand what her child likes."

"Huh? Is it really that good?"

"...Interpret it however you like." Eriri felt a sense of helplessness.

"Are all people who work in ACGN-related fields as busy as Sora Ao?"

"Of course not. Generally speaking, creators spend most of their time alone and rarely interact with others. However, they are definitely busy. Even though there seems to be a long time ahead, the deadline can loom in the blink of an eye..."

"Is that because of procrastination?"

"Just get the gist of it." Eriri refused to answer the question. "Others, like coordinators, organizers, communicators, and investors, spend most of their time interacting with people, like Kobayashi."

No wonder he's so busy...

“He’s busy not because of his status. There are many people who do the same job as him and are much more relaxed.”
