I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

What are you going to name it?

"love letter."

"love letter?"

Kato Arashi repeated the name and nodded. "A good name, very fitting."

She stood up, walked to the window, and opened it. Fresh air rushed in, dispelling the oppressive atmosphere in the office.

"Yuanchuan, how much longer until you finish writing this book?"

"I'm not filming any movies now. If I stay home and keep creating, I can probably finish writing the ending in about a week."

Genkawa Yu recalled the "blacklisting" operation by Jenny Agency and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"49" is a TV series invested in by Jenny Studios, so it's indeed easy to get rid of someone who only has a few episodes.

However, if filming is to continue, the script will need to be revised, and the screenwriters on the production team must be furious right now.

"Okay, I'll give you a week. During this time, you don't need to pay attention to what's going on online. Just focus on creating at home."

"Once you finish writing, we will contact the publisher and make the necessary preparations."

Kato Arashi was very familiar with the methods of Johnny & Associates, and immediately began to devise arrangements for various follow-up matters.

"Voices from the internet?"

Genkawa Yu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Heh, you don't actually think that Jenny's Agency would simply prevent you from getting work, do you?"

Kato Arashi turned and leaned against the windowsill, her tone tinged with coldness.

"They employ a large number of professional marketing trolls. Once the '49' production team issues an adjustment announcement, your name will immediately be embroiled in all sorts of negative rumors."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kazuya Nakahara next to him suddenly hissed and took out his phone with a serious expression.

"They're already out. They're really quick..."

#YuanchuanYu's Big-Name Playing Confirmed#

An anonymous source revealed that Yu Minakawa was late multiple times on the set of "49", scoffed at the director's instructions, and even hid in a corner of the set because he didn't like the props, refusing to film.

Several fake chat screenshots have even surfaced, showing "Yuanchuan You's" personal account verbally abusing staff members in an extremely arrogant tone.

In addition to these fake negative news stories, the online trolls from Jenny Studio also leave exaggerated comments and messages under various news articles.

For example, comments like: "I knew he was a bad person, but I didn't expect it to be this bad!", "Yu Genkawa, get out of the entertainment industry!", and "No wonder Johnny's doesn't want him; he has no talent whatsoever and only knows how to bully staff."

As the number of comments increased, Kazuya Nakahara's expression turned extremely ugly.

He glanced at the expressionless Genkawa Yu and couldn't help but comfort him, "It's okay, Genkawa. These comments will naturally disappear after your novel is published."

"Don't worry, these methods won't affect me."

Genkawa Yu smiled slightly. These methods were too childish and wouldn't affect his mood at all.

"You can still laugh?"

Kazuya Nakahara glared at him and said irritably, "Aren't you afraid of becoming a celebrity that everyone hates?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. I just think that Jenny's agency's behavior is a bit stupid."

"you..."

While Nakahara Kazuya was somewhat speechless, Kato Arashi was silently observing Genkawa Yu.

Seeing the young man remain calm in the face of the storm of public opinion, the female president's admiration deepened. She stepped forward, patted Genkawa Yu on the shoulder, and spoke solemnly.

"Yuanchuan-kun, your task now is to focus on your creative work. Leave everything else to us."

"I see."

"Remember what I just said. Now that your reasoning has convinced me, the firm will do everything in its power to protect you this time."

"Once you get through this, I will upgrade your agency contract to the highest level, and Zhongyuan will become your full-time agent!"

"This promise is absolutely true, and I believe you will deliver a satisfactory result."

"it is good."

Volume One: The Shining Morning Star, Chapter Twenty-Seven: Akane Kurokawa Doesn't Want to Use Honorifics

Back in his rented apartment, Genkawa Yu put the noise on Twitter behind him and immersed himself in a strange tranquility.

Tokyo outside the window remained bustling, and negative news on the internet continued to escalate, but all of this was kept out by that heavy door.

He sat at his desk, his ballpoint pen scratching across the manuscript paper, the story of "Love Letter" slowly unfolding before him.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the silence inside the house was broken by the ringing of a cell phone.

"Hello?" Genkawa Yu answered the phone, his voice calm.

"Mr. Genkawa... are you alright?"

Mai Sakurajima's gentle voice came through the phone, carrying a hint of barely perceptible tension. In the background, one could faintly hear the shouts of production assistants, indicating that the girl was calling during a break from the set of "49".

“Great, I don’t have any filming to do, so I can stay home and write in peace. Sakurajima-san can see my novel sooner.”

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone.

“I saw those news reports,” Mai Sakurajima’s voice lowered. “They really… went too far.”

"It's just some ordinary mudslinging tactics, do you think I'd care?" Genkawa Yu asked deliberately.

"It's best if you don't care!"

Hearing the young man's smiling voice, Mai Sakurajima's tense emotions seemed to relax a lot. "I knew Jenny's Agency wasn't a good place! Something was off about Yamada inviting you to the party last time!"

Genkawa Yu couldn't help but smile.

"Sakurajima-san, you should focus on filming. I'm just a supporting character, you're the leading lady."

He twirled the pen in his hand. "This will all pass quickly, don't worry about me."

Another silence followed.

In the background, someone seems to be shouting, "Sakurajima-san, get ready to start filming!"

The girl's voice came again the next moment.

"Mr. Genkawa, I'll have a day off next week, and then... I'll bring some gifts to visit you."

"I finally have some time to rest, but Sakurajima-san is still at home..."

"Aren't we friends?"

Mai Sakurajima retorted forcefully.

"...Alright then, I'll just stay home and look forward to my celebrity friend's visit. Remember to buy some expensive gifts for him."

"Hehe~ Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down."

After hanging up the phone, the young man stared at the darkened screen, a slight smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips.

At six o'clock in the evening, a light rain began to fall on the streets of Tokyo.

After tidying up the manuscript papers on the table, Yuan Chuanyu felt a little hungry, so he decided to get up and cook a bowl of instant noodles.

Just as the water in the pot boiled, the doorbell rang suddenly.

Upon opening the door, I was surprised to see Akane Kurokawa standing outside. She was wearing a dark blue hoodie and carrying a thermos with a cat pattern on it. Her bangs were slightly messy from the wind.

"Kurokawa-san? What brings you here?" Genkawa Yu was somewhat surprised and stepped aside to let her in.

"After learning about Genkawa-san's situation, I was a little worried... so I wanted to come and see him."

Kurokawa Akane placed the thermos on the entryway cabinet and bent down to change her shoes, her voice trembling with nervousness. "I got the address from Director Asano. It just so happens that my house isn't far from here... I made some chicken soup and wanted to bring it over for Genkawa-san to try."

"Thank you, I was just about to have dinner." Yuan Chuan You smiled.

Upon entering the house, Akane Kurokawa subconsciously looked around, her gaze quickly landing on the freshly opened instant noodles and a pile of snacks.

The next moment, the girl's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Mr. Genkawa, is this all you're having for dinner tonight?"

“I’ve been busy these past few days, so I’ll just have something to eat,” Yuan Chuanyou scratched his head. “I have some very important things to deal with right now, and sometimes I get so engrossed in them that I forget to eat.”

"That won't do, eating is very important."

Akane Kurokawa opened the thermos, and the aroma of steaming chicken soup immediately filled the air. "Mr. Genkawa, you can try this first. You can eat the noodles later."

"it is good."

The two sat down together at the small dining table, and the air suddenly became quiet.

After a while, looking at Genkawa Yu who was enjoying the chicken, Kurokawa Akane said with some guilt.

"Um, Genkawa-san, I originally wanted to help you by speaking up on Twitter, but my manager wouldn't let me get involved in this kind of thing. Sorry..."

Upon hearing this, Genkawa Yu put down his chopsticks and smiled casually.

"Kurokawa-san, I'm so glad you came today. This has nothing to do with you, so please don't do anything foolish."

"But what they said was really too much. Genkawa-san is clearly a very good actor, why did she have to go through this..."

Akane Kurokawa looked up at him, a stubborn glint in her eyes.

She had long regarded Genkawa Yu as a friend who fought alongside her, and she had been holding a grudge ever since she learned that his scenes had been cut.

However, her agent remained silent about these matters and immediately contacted Akane Kurokawa, saying that she absolutely could not get involved in such things, in a very serious tone.

"Alright, let's talk about something happier."

Yuan Chuan You didn't want her to feel burdened, so he naturally changed the subject.

The two chatted for more than half an hour. Then, as if he had thought of something, Kurokawa Akane looked at the young man's eyes with a serious expression.

"Mr. Genkawa, I'll be an adult next year."

These words came as a surprise, leaving Yuan Chuan You somewhat bewildered, but the girl's next sentence immediately made him understand.

"so..."
