My daily life with the original diva

The reason I say this is that Hiroshi Kimura doesn't know how to face Akina Nakamori's family, because he really doesn't have a good impression of them at all.

"Yes, I know. We'll find an opportunity after Hongjun finishes this busy period. As for seeing my sister, I still need to prepare properly so that it will be polite," Nakamori Akina said earnestly.

Then she started rambling on about what gift to give, what to wear to make a good impression when they met, and how to speak without sounding awkward. Seeing her excited and nervous expression, Kimura Hiroshi just listened, because he knew that Nakamori Akina actually liked to talk and was a bit of a chatterbox, so he decided to just be a listener.

After talking for a while, Nakamori Akina finally stopped. Seeing Kimura Hiro listening to her rambling with a gentle smile, she felt a warmth in her heart. Only Hiro-kun would listen to her silly chatter so gently. She lingered closer to Kimura Hiro and whispered, "Hiro-kun, do you want to know if I'm mine?"

After saying that, she grabbed Kimura Hiroshi's hand. Kimura Hiroshi, who was listening attentively to Nakamori Akina, never expected Nakamori Akina to do that.

I must say, it's very comfortable.

Chapter 213 Little brother, you haven't been kept by a sugar daddy, have you?

As we enter a new week, Hiroshi Kimura's new single "Love Will Conquer All" and the movie theme song album continue to sell well. On Monday, the two albums sold 80,000 and 40,000 copies respectively, and the total sales are still rapidly increasing. "Love Will Conquer All" is clearly trending towards becoming the best-selling single album of the year.

However, on the first day of the second week, the sales of Masahiko Kondo's "Taishō" plummeted, with only 10,000 copies sold that day. This drop was indeed a bit strange, because it was too fast. Many discerning people have already seen that there must be something fishy going on.

However, compared to the few albums he released after his career faltered, this sales figure represents a significant increase, demonstrating that large-scale high exposure does have some effect. However, the investment and returns are somewhat disproportionate, and it's estimated that few agencies would dare to do this, since everyone is here to make money, not to throw money around.

The media outlets that had been hyping this up suddenly fell silent, once again falling into an awkward period of silence after failing to prove themselves wrong. However, this time, more people in the industry mocked these guys, because many media outlets that had good relations with Dongbao did not join in. Many media outlets felt that this was also a source of traffic, so they began to write reports criticizing their peers.

This has really stirred up a hornet's nest. Everyone has smeared Kimura before, but this time you got advance notice and didn't smear him. As colleagues, it's one thing that you didn't help us, but now you're jumping out to curse us. It's outrageous! We'll leave the eldest brother aside, but you guys aren't any better.

Numerous media outlets joined in, sparking a chaotic battle. Many were even resorting to name-calling and insults, providing a new source of gossip for those who had been waiting for the sales battle between Hiroshi Kimura and Masahiko Kondo. The sales of many of the most vocal critics surged, much to their surprise, and they became even more vocal in their attacks.

However, this is a major benefit for Hiroshi Kimura. In addition to the major media outlets, he now has some media outlets with whom he has good relationships. Although many of these outlets had previously criticized him, it doesn't matter because they will be friends from now on. That's how realistic the adult world is.

Given Kimura Hiroshi's immense popularity, many programs wanted him to appear on their shows. However, due to the sales boom, Kimura Hiroshi rarely appeared on television programs, making everyone eagerly anticipate his first television interview and hoping the host would ask him many relevant questions.

Faced with these invitations, Hiroshi Kimura accepted a few, but he really couldn't go today because he had to pick up his sister, Ryo Kimura. She had been delayed for more than ten days before arriving in Tokyo, and she had come by Shinkansen. There was no way around it; the family only had one car, and Ryo Kimura would be in Tokyo for three months, so it was impossible for her to bring the family car.

Outside the platform, assistant Michiko was holding a sign and waiting. As for Hiroshi Kimura, he was wearing sunglasses, a mask, and a hat and waiting not far away. If Hiroshi Kimura dressed like that were to hold up a sign to greet people, it would probably attract a lot of attention and he might be recognized, causing a commotion. Of course, if he didn't dress up like that to hold up a sign to greet people, it would definitely cause a commotion.

At the agreed-upon 4:30 PM, amidst the massive flow of people exiting the station, Kimura Hiroshi immediately spotted his sister in the crowd. No wonder, his sister was also a stunning beauty, though she tried to conceal herself slightly, clearly not wanting to attract too much attention.

"Over here, sister." Kimura Hiroshi couldn't help but call out. His voice was loud enough to immediately attract Kimura Ryo's attention. After seeing him, she pulled her luggage and came over.

"Wow, he really is a big singer and a big star. He has to dress up like this to come out." Kimura Ryo thought his younger brother's outfit was quite exaggerated.

Taking the luggage, Kimura Hiroshi dragged it away, saying as he walked, "That's for sure, your brother is a top idol now. By the way, let me introduce you, this is my assistant, Ms. Michiko. She'll be going back soon, and I'll help my sister settle into her apartment."

The two exchanged pleasantries upon first meeting. Michiko had truly witnessed the power of family genes. The siblings, one beautiful and the other handsome, were the envy of everyone. Wait a minute, if Akina-san were to marry Kimura-san and have children, wouldn't that perpetuate such excellent genes? Absolutely outrageous and unacceptable!

After Ms. Michiko, who had helped pick them up, left, Hiroshi Kimura drove his Crown VII with his sister, Ryo Kimura, to his apartment. He had also booked an apartment for his sister in the same building, since she would be staying in Tokyo for at least three months, and an apartment would be the most suitable option.

"Is being a singer this lucrative, little brother? You bought such an expensive car in such a short time and are even starting a company?" Kimura Ryo knew that popular artists made a lot of money, but he didn't expect it to be this much, with both a company and a luxury car.

Kimura Hiroshi, who was driving the car, said nonchalantly, "Ah, I didn't buy this car; it was a gift from someone."

"What? A gift? Who would give such an expensive gift?" Kimura Ryo knew about this car; it cost at least nine million yen. Who would give such a nice car as a gift?

Suddenly, a possibility occurred to her. Her younger brother drives a nice car and owns a company. Could it be that he...? Kimura Ryo's expression immediately turned serious. She said, "Brother, let me tell you, the family has no objection to you being an artist, but if you become an artist and are kept by some very old rich woman, then not only the family, but even I will not agree."

Like being struck by lightning, what was all this about? How did I end up being kept by someone? Seriously, Kimura Hiroshi quickly explained, "What are you thinking, sister? This car was a gift from my girlfriend. Oh, you could say she's a rich woman, and she's a bit older than me..."

As he spoke, Kimura Hiroshi realized something was amiss. It really seemed like he was being kept, so he quickly added, "I'll introduce you to her tonight. She's my girlfriend, someone you've seen on TV. She's a singer like me."

Hearing her younger brother say this, Kimura Ryo finally felt relieved. If their family had a younger brother who was kept by a rich woman, it would truly be a disgrace to the family. If he were a singer, he might be a female entertainer. Well, that would be normal enough. But someone with bad conduct wouldn't do either, since her father, Kimura Nobushi, was a very old-fashioned man.

His brother's career as an entertainer was already the limit of his tolerance. If his brother were to find a female entertainer with a bad reputation as his girlfriend, he would probably explode. He might even rush to Tokyo, drag him back to school, and who knows?

"A female celebrity? Who is she?" Kimura Ryo asked curiously.

"It's a secret. You'll find out when we meet tonight," Kimura Hiroshi said with a smile.

"Hey, you're keeping it a secret," Kimura Ryo said very formally. "I don't object to you finding a girlfriend in the entertainment industry, but if you're thinking about getting married in the future, you'll have to get past your father's approval. Find someone more docile, you know? Your father really dislikes female celebrities with bad behavior and lots of scandals."

"I understand, don't worry, sister." Kimura Hiro wasn't too worried. Not to mention that Nakamori Akina is the kind of person who is very loyal and tries to avoid scandals, even if they were to get married, it would be a long time before they could. If they really objected at that time, she would already be in Tokyo and the marriage would be officially announced, so there would be no way to change it.

Since it wasn't yet time to get off work, the roads were clear, and they arrived at the apartment quickly. Kimura Hiroshi immediately took his sister Kimura Ryo's luggage into the rented apartment, and then accompanied her to buy various daily necessities and help tidy up the room. They were busy until evening before everything was finally finished. It really is a lot of trouble for girls to decorate their rooms.

As evening approached, and it was almost time, Kimura Hiro led her to the reserved restaurant on time. It was a high-end restaurant suitable for gatherings. After finding the reserved private room, Kimura Hiro said to his sister, Kimura Ryo, "My girlfriend booked this for you, you know. What do you think? Is it alright?"

"Hmm, not bad. Your girlfriend seems to respect me, her older sister. Now I'm quite curious about who she is. Is she some minor singer?" Kimura Ryo was quite curious about her younger brother's girlfriend at this moment.

As the ordered dishes were served one by one, the agreed time passed. Several minutes later, just as Kimura Hiroya was starting to get anxious, the door to the private room was pushed open, and a figure rushed in, took off his sunglasses, bowed and apologized, saying, "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way, I'm late, I'm really very sorry."

Upon seeing who it was, Kimura Ryo, the older sister, was completely stunned; she was dumbfounded.

Chapter 214 My Girlfriend Was Stolen by My Sister

Upon seeing the person who arrived, Kimura Ryo could hardly believe his eyes. He quickly stood up, looked her over carefully, and then stammered, "Naka-Nakamori Akina, you're Nakamori Akina, right? My God, my brother's girlfriend is Nakamori Akina? How is this possible?"

Unexpectedly, his older sister, Kimura Ryo, was so excited. Kimura Hiro had never seen her like this before. He got up, pulled Nakamori Akina to the dining table, and made her sit down. Then, he put his hand on Nakamori Akina's shoulder and said, "Sister, this is my girlfriend, Nakamori Akina. We've been officially dating for about half a year now. Akina, this is my older sister, Kimura Ryo."

When Nakamori Akina met Kimura Hiroshi's family for the first time, she was a little nervous. Fortunately, she had been working in the entertainment industry for more than two years and was no longer the naive little girl she once was. She now knew how to handle this kind of situation.

She took out a gift from her bag—a set of very high-end cosmetics, the kind of imported brands she herself wouldn't normally use—and handed it to Kimura Ryo, saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you, sister. Nice to meet you. This is a gift for you. Please take care of me in the future."

Unexpectedly, when she saw the gift from Nakamori Akina, her older sister Kimura Ryo was still very excited. Her hand trembled slightly as she reached out and quickly took it. "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Akina-san. Wow, you're even more beautiful in person than on TV. You're so beautiful!"

To avoid being impolite during the meeting, Akina Nakamori had clearly dressed up carefully today, even more so than when she usually appears on television programs.

Hmm? Kimura Ryo's older sister was clearly acting strangely. Kimura Hiroshi thought she looked like a fan meeting her idol, so he tentatively asked, "Hey, do you often watch Akina on TV shows, older sister?"

“Of course, I really enjoy listening to Akina-san sing, I’m a fan of hers…” Kimura Ryo replied casually, but as soon as the words left her mouth, she realized something was wrong and quickly stopped. Even so, Kimura Hiro had already heard her, and a look of “I knew it” appeared on his face.

Now, Kimura Ryoko, the older sister, was very unhappy. The female singer she liked was actually her younger brother's girlfriend, and he had even found out about it. This was outrageous! She couldn't bear to do anything to Nakamori Akina, but she was willing to scold her younger brother.

"You brat, ever since you started junior high, you've avoided girls like the plague. How come you've managed to find Akina-san as your girlfriend so quickly after entering the entertainment industry? Tell me, have you gone astray in the entertainment industry and become quite the smooth talker with girls?"

"How could that be? Your brother..."

"Yes, sister, he's gone bad. Just the other day he was being hugged by two female idols, he was really enjoying it. Now he's... lewd, he's become very naughty." Before Kimura Hiroshi could finish speaking, Nakamori Akina was the first to complain.

With an incredulous look on his face, Kimura Hiroshi never expected that Nakamori Akina would tattle on him at this time. Wait a minute, you've only just met, is it really okay to do this already?

“Well, you’ve really gone astray. After dinner, I’ll call home and tell Father you’ve been fooling around in Tokyo. Don’t worry, Akina-san, I guarantee he’ll get a good lesson,” said Kimura Ryougi, her older sister, with a stern expression.

This is terrible! If he calls home, he's really going to get a scolding. Kimura Hiroshi quickly said, "Akina-san, explain yourself! I really didn't cheat on you. You're the only girlfriend I've ever dated, okay?"

"Pfft!" It was the first time Nakamori Akina had seen Kimura Hiroshi so flustered, and she found it a little funny. She didn't want her boyfriend Kimura Hiroshi to actually get scolded; this kind of thing could only be a joke and shouldn't be taken seriously.

"I'm sorry, sister, I was just kidding. Hiro-kun didn't go out fooling around. In fact, he's very kind and attentive to me. There's no boyfriend as good as him." As she spoke, Nakamori Akina leaned against Kimura Hiro to confirm that what she said was true.

Seeing Akina Nakamori leaning gently against Hiro Kimura, her older sister Ryo Kimura knew she wasn't lying. At this moment, she was extremely excited. The female singer she liked was actually her brother's girlfriend, and they had such a good relationship. Didn't that mean she could get close to her anytime in the future? No, a girlfriend wasn't enough; it would be best if they could get married.

"Alright, I'll let you off this time. But let me tell you, you better treat Akina-san well, understand? If I find out you're not treating her well, see how I deal with you," Kimura Ryo threatened. She couldn't let her favorite singer slip away from her side.

Nodding seriously, Kimura Hiroshi said, "I understand, sister. Don't worry, she's your idol, but she's also my girlfriend. If I don't treat her well, who will? I promise to keep her by my side forever."

Kimura Ryo, realizing his thoughts had been read, brandished his fist, signaling him to stop talking. Nakamori Akina, watching the siblings interact, found it quite amusing. She used to threaten her younger sister and brother in the same way. They were divided into two families, constantly opposing and provoking each other, playing around and having fun. Thinking back, those days were truly wonderful.

But since her successful debut, they haven't interacted like this. It's as if a rift suddenly appeared, causing them to gradually drift apart. They seem to only talk about money now, and they can never go back to the way things were.

This made her feel slightly disappointed, but she didn't show it. It was their first meeting, and she couldn't appear impolite.

After threatening her younger brother, Kimura Ryo looked at Nakamori Akina and asked with great curiosity, "Akina-san, can you tell me how you got together with my stupid younger brother? He used to avoid girls at school."

"Just call me Akina, sister. As for how I got together with Hiro, I think I was the one who made the first move, since I was the one who expressed my feelings first." Nakamori Akina was quite direct, revealing that she was the one who made the first move to express her feelings.

Big news! Big revelation! It seems that spending so much time with the middle-aged and elderly people in the farmers' association has made her exceptionally gossipy, and she quickly inquired about the details.

The two chatted enthusiastically, initially focusing on Hiroshi Kimura, but the conversation quickly veered off-topic to cosmetics, clothes, and even matters between female idols. In short, they talked about everything under the sun. Akina Nakamori is a chatterbox, and having someone to talk to was something she was very happy about. Before long, the two were acting like best friends.

As for the neglected Kimura Hiroshi, he could only set the table on the side, urge the two of them to eat quickly so that the food would get cold, and then pour drinks for them, just like a waiter.

However, he was happy to see this situation, because Nakamori Akina actually had very few friends she could confide in private. Most of them were in the entertainment industry, but they were all very busy and didn't have much time to chat with her. Now that her sister could talk to her, it was good news. At least it gave her another way to relieve stress.

The meal lasted a full two hours, from eight o'clock to ten o'clock. Tomorrow, Akina Nakamori has to get up at five o'clock in the morning to work, and it took Kimura Hiroshi a long time to urge the two of them to leave the restaurant.

It seems that my sister spends all her time with middle-aged and elderly people back in her hometown. Now that she has finally found someone close to her age who she likes, her desire to chat seems to have exploded. On the way back, the two of them sat in the back seat and continued to chat, completely forgetting about Kimura Hiroshi, the person in question.

Upon arriving at the apartment, Kimura Ryo said, "Little brother, you should go back and rest. Let Akina stay at my place tonight. We need to have a good chat. Oh, and bring Akina's toiletries down later. Also, remember to pick her up from the office tomorrow morning."

Kimura Hiroshi, who was walking in front of him, almost fell over when he heard this. "You two have been chatting for hours and you're still not done talking? Also, as the older sister, is it really okay for you to sleep with your younger brother's girlfriend? Are you leaving your younger brother alone in the room?"

"Okay, Hiro-kun, go back and get my things down for me. I'll talk to my sister for a bit more. I definitely won't stay up late tonight. Remember to pick me up early tomorrow, okay?" Nakamori Akina said with a sly look. She seemed to really enjoy seeing Kimura Hiro look embarrassed; it was truly amusing.

The two had reached an agreement, so what could Kimura Hiroshi do? He could only say with a sullen face, "Okay, I'll bring it down in a bit, but you have to go to bed early tonight, otherwise you won't have the energy to work tomorrow."

Chapter 215 You're So Caring!

Early in the morning, Kimura Hiroshi, still half asleep, suddenly felt an itch on his face, as if someone was gently stroking his face with a feather. The feeling was somewhat comfortable, but mostly itchy, which forced him to wake up.

He struggled to open his eyes and saw Nakamori Akina sitting on the edge of the bed, her head down, holding a tuft of her long, curly hair, slid it back and forth across his face, a smug smile on her face, seemingly enjoying this little prank.

Seeing him open his eyes, Nakamori Akina didn't continue. Instead, she puffed out her cheeks and pretended to be angry, saying, "Get up, lazy Hiro-kun! It's time for me to go to work. If you don't take me there, I'll be late... ah."

But before she could finish speaking, Kimura Hiroshi grabbed her with both hands, gently tossed her onto the bed, then held her close, snuggled against her soft body, and said, "You left me alone in my room last night, and now you're disturbing my sleep this morning. How annoying."

"Yeah, yeah, it's so annoying. Get up now, you lazybones." Nakamori Akina pinched his nose as she looked at Kimura Hiroshi, who was snuggling against her and being mischievous.

Knowing that Akina Nakamori disliked being late, Hiroshi Kimura didn't stay in bed any longer. He struggled to open his eyes, stretched, and finally got up. But when he opened his eyes and looked at Akina Nakamori, he saw her faint dark circles under her eyes.

"Didn't we agree to go to bed early last night and not stay up late? What happened?" Kimura Hiroshi said somewhat unhappily, pointing to her dark circles.

He already often suffers from sleep deprivation due to work, and staying up late is really bad for his health. He can't stop Nakamori Akina from working so hard, but he can ask her to get some rest.

Seeing that Kimura Hiroshi was unhappy, Nakamori Akina rubbed her eyes hard and smiled, "Hehe, I was too excited last night and chatted with my sister a little late, but it's not a big deal. I usually sleep even less when I'm busy with work."

Kimura Hiroshi realized now that he shouldn't have let Nakamori Akina stay overnight. Given her personality, if her sister wanted to chat, she would definitely keep chatting with her, even if she got sleepy. After all, that's just her personality; she doesn't know how to refuse, especially when the other person is family.

Holding Akina Nakamori's hand, Hiroshi Kimura said, "If I need you to stay overnight again, and you can't refuse, just blink your left eye at me three times quickly, and I'll find an excuse to send you back. Your health is the most important thing, so get some rest, okay? I'll tell Mr. Akiyuki to try to reduce your workload today."

Knowing that this girl wouldn't refuse, or even if she wanted to, she probably wouldn't be able to say it, I'll just do it myself.

Feeling Kimura Hiro's meticulous care, Nakamori Akina enjoyed the feeling and felt very sweet. She leaned over and gently kissed Kimura Hiro's lips, saying happily, "You're so kind, Hiro-kun. I really can't find a boyfriend as good as you again. But kind Hiro-kun, you have to take me to work, otherwise, your girlfriend will be late for the first time."

"Ugh, work is such a hassle, it ruins the atmosphere, it's awful. I can't have so much work in the future. But one isn't enough, I need kisses here and here too." How could one kiss be enough? Kimura Hiroshi pointed to both sides of his face, indicating that these places also needed kisses.

"You're such a rascal, and so mean, you shameless Hiro-kun." Unable to refuse Hiro Kimura's request, Akina Nakamori could only give him two more kisses. But after the kisses, Hiro Kimura pointed to his lips, and Akina Nakamori, scared of him, kissed him again.

This satisfied Kimura Hiroshi, who knew he couldn't waste any more time. He hurriedly got out of bed, quickly washed up, changed his clothes, and finished everything in less than ten minutes. Then the two of them went downstairs and got into the car.

Kimura Hiroshi wanted Nakamori Akina to take a nap in the back seat, but she insisted on sitting in the passenger seat. Kimura Hiroshi had no choice but to let her sit in the passenger seat, cover her with his coat, and let her catch up on her sleep before quickly driving towards the office.

Forty-five minutes later, they delivered Akina Nakamori to her office right on time. Hiroshi Kimura and Yoshizawa Akiyuki gave her a few words of advice, saying that Akina Nakamori hadn't slept well last night, so it would be best to keep her work schedule light today and finish as early as possible.

"I know you have a lot of work today, but you were still up so late last night, Kimura-san. Young people need to know how to be moderate, you know? Otherwise, you'll be the one crying in the future. For Akina-san to be able to enjoy the happiness she has now when she's in her forties or fifties, please restrain yourself a bit." Akiyuki Yoshizawa patted Kimura Hiroshi on the shoulder and said.

Damn it, you greasy middle-aged man, what are you thinking? I slept soundly last night, okay? It was all my sister's fault. But if he said that, people would definitely think he was just making excuses. Kimura Hiroshi was too lazy to say anything more.
