MEM啾 was unwilling to let go of this strange feeling. She wanted more time to observe Ryoma Ezaki and Ruby Hoshino.

"Sorry MEM, it's a little late and I have to go back to the theater today."

Kurokawa Akane was the first to refuse.

"Oh yeah, Akane-chan you still have something to do, right?"

MEM啾 finally recalled it and turned to look at Nobuyuki Kumano and the other person.

"What about you two? You don't have any excuses, do you?"

"Uh... okay, I can go."

Nobuyuki Kumano hesitated for a few seconds and finally decided to face MEM head-on.

After being criticized by Kengo Morimoto for more than an hour, he is not so depressed now.

The best way to eliminate fear is to face it. In order to avoid wilting at the sight of MEM啾 in future shows, Nobuyuki Kumano is determined to face his fear!

"Sorry, I'm not free either. I have to go back to the theater today."

Ryoma Esaki also refused directly, and also refused on behalf of Ruby Hoshino.

"Ruby, I remember you have something to do too, right?"

"Uh... ah yes! Aunt Kyoko asked me to go back early today. She wants to discuss something about the show with me."

Ruby Hoshino also followed suit and took the opportunity to back down.

At this time, Kengo Morimoto on the side also spoke up.

"I have something to do too, so MEM and Shin, you two can go."

Nobuyuki Kumano's face suddenly changed. He planned to face his fear, but he didn't plan to face it alone!

"Why are two people still getting together? Forget it."

Fortunately, MEM啾 directly canceled this plan.

After all, her target is Ryoma Ezaki, and there is no need to get together again if Ryoma Ezaki refuses.

Upon hearing this, Nobuyuki Kumano didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

I finally mustered up the courage to face my fear, but it ended up giving up before I even started.

Everyone dispersed and went home. Ryoma Ezaki and Akane Kurokawa also went with them.

This time, Hoshino Ruby was no longer jealous about the two of them traveling together, and Kurokawa Akane was no longer secretly happy about being able to travel with Esaki Ryoma.

The victory or defeat between them is no longer at such a superficial level.

After returning to the troupe, Kurokawa Akane and Esaki Ryoma parted ways and went about their own business.

Kurokawa Akane came to the troupe's practice room, but there was no one there. The other actors in the troupe had already finished their practice and gone home.

She took out the key, opened the door, and started her exercise as usual.

Half an hour later, the exercise was over. Kurokawa Akane wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, drank two sips of water, and then began to practice his lines and performance.

She hasn't had any acting work recently, and is practicing now purely out of self-discipline so that she doesn't become rusty in acting.

After all, acting skills are the foundation of her survival in this world.

It gradually became deeper, and after practicing for almost an hour, Kurokawa Akane finally finished the practice with satisfaction.

She enjoys performing. When she performs, she feels that she is being watched and is the center of attention.

Practicing acting is also one of her ways to relieve stress.

After tidying up the practice room, Kurokawa Akane prepared to return the key.

When she passed by the president's office, she suddenly heard a scolding.

Moreover, she heard her own name from it.

"How come there are only a few shots in this entire episode? What on earth is Kurokawa doing? Is she worthy of the opportunities and resources the troupe provides her with?"

"And you, you're her manager, why don't you supervise her properly? If this continues, Jiang Qi will be snatched away by other girls. How can we continue with our plan to promote him and Kurokawa as a couple?"

"Esaki is our troupe's trump card. Do we want him to use his popularity to help other artists?"

"I'm really sorry, President. I will tell Kurokawa."

Faced with the president's reprimand, the agent could only display his craftsmanship and apologize repeatedly.

When the president finally finished venting his anger, the agent left the office and was stunned to see Kurokawa Akane standing next to him.

"Did you hear everything? But don't worry about it. Just do what you want. I'll take care of the president for you."

The agent said in a gentle voice that his policy has always been to let artists perform on their own, especially talented artists like Kurokawa Akane, who can shine the brightest without interference from others.

Chapter 47 Kurokawa Akane's Jedi counterattack!

"Well, thank you, Mr. Agent."

Kurokawa Akane nodded, still feeling somewhat regretful that his inactivity had caused his agent to be scolded.

At the same time, she became more determined that there must be progress in this episode!

With this awareness, in the following days, Kurokawa Akane tried even harder to integrate into the relationship between Esaki Ryoma and Hoshino Ruby.

By Friday, her joining did not make the atmosphere stiff as before, but instead it was very harmonious.

She would even occasionally take the initiative to guide the topic and try to take the initiative in the conversation.

Even Ruby Hoshino was moved by Kurokawa Akane's efforts. Over the past few days, she had unknowingly gone from resisting Kurokawa Akane's interruptions in the beginning to now chatting happily with her unconsciously.

Sometimes, they were so excited about chatting that even Ryoma Esaki would be temporarily ignored by them.

Looking back, Ruby Hoshino realized how terrifying it was that Kurokawa Akane could do this.

After these few days, she has come to regard Kurokawa Akane as a respectable opponent.

Ryoma Esaki did not try to stop Kurokawa Akane's behavior.

He and Ruby Hoshino had already accumulated their initial goodwill, and they didn't really need any time alone to get closer.

Therefore, he was also very happy to see Kurokawa Akane working harder to conquer him and put pressure on Hoshino Ruby.

And just like that, it’s the weekend again.

On this day, Ruby Hoshino finally realized that she could no longer allow Akane Kurokawa to continue like this.

So, after the program started recording, she found Ryoma Ezaki and said.

"Today I can..."

"Ezaki-kun!"

But before she could finish her words, she heard Kurokawa Akane calling from the side.

She trotted up to Ryoma Ezaki and said.

"Ezaki-kun, can you come with me alone for a moment?"

When Hoshino Ruby heard what Kurokawa Akane said, her expression froze.

She never expected that the request she was about to make was actually preempted by Kurokawa Akane.

From now on, Kurokawa Akane will finally try to monopolize Ryoma Esaki.

"Great! Akane-chan is finally taking the initiative to attack!"

Seeing that Kurokawa Akane invited Ezaki Ryoma to be alone together, MEM啾 beside her showed a relieved expression like an old mother.

"Akayin! Go! Capture Liang for me!"

Hearing Kurokawa Akane's invitation, Esaki Ryoma quietly glanced at Hoshino Ruby.

Seeing that Hoshino Ruby had a conflicted look on her face but said nothing, his eyes became somewhat playful.

It seems that greater stimulation is needed.

"Of course, what do you want from me?"

Ryoshin Ezaki agreed immediately.

"Well, it's just..."

Kurokawa Akane hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to express his needs.

"Didn't the director ask us to go back and think about which shots need to be reshot? I reviewed our experiences over the past few days and summarized a few shots that I need you to reshoot with me alone."

"Oh~, I see."

Ryoma Esaki nodded. It was obvious that Akane Kurokawa was well prepared and this excuse was reasonable.

Now, no matter how unwilling Ruby Hoshino is, she can't say anything.

He looked at Hoshino Ruby again, and seeing that her expression had become even uglier, he said.

"Okay, it's rare to see you being so positive. If I can help you get more scenes in the next show, I'd certainly be happy to do so."

"That's great!"

Seeing that Ryoma Ezaki agreed to him, Kurokawa Akane finally put his heart at ease.

She smiled from the bottom of her heart, turned around and prepared to leave with Ryoma Esaki.

"Then let's go over there..."

"Wait a moment!"

Finally, Ruby Hoshino couldn't sit still anymore.

Even if Kurokawa Akane had more legitimate reasons, she was unwilling to just sit there and watch Kurokawa Akane take Ezaki Ryoma away so easily.

Seeing Hoshino Ruby's expression, Kurokawa Akane showed a trace of pity on his face.

But thinking back to her agent's expression after being reprimanded on Wednesday night, and thinking back to the expectations placed on her, she finally hardened her heart.

"Ruby, do you have anything else to ask Ezaki-kun?"

Kurokawa Akane said those heart-piercing words with a smile on his face.

"If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. Ezaki-kun needs to go with me to reshoot the scenes."

At this moment, she finally reversed the positions of both parties, turning passive into active, and turning follower into welcomer.

Ruby Hoshino froze there. She had called out to Ryoma Ezaki just now purely out of reflex, without any reason at all.

After hesitating for a while, she spoke in an extremely guilty tone.

"Actually...actually, I also need to reshoot scenes with you, Ezaki-kun!"

Use the way of the person to treat the person's body.

You used this reason to take Ezaki Ryoma away from me, so I will use the same reason to stop you!

This is the most effective counterattack that Ruby Hoshino can make in a desperate situation.

But what Ruby Hoshino didn't expect was that all her actions seemed to have been calculated by Akane Kurokawa.

Hearing what Hoshino Ruby said, Kurokawa Akane smiled.

She clapped her hands and said.

"In that case, why don't we tell Ezaki-kun about the scenes we want to reshoot together, and let Ezaki-kun decide who to reshoot with first, how do you think?"

Kurokawa Akane's move was a decisive blow.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ruby Hoshino was just looking for a reason to keep Ryoma Esaki. How could she have prepared any reshoots?

Kurokawa Akane's intention in saying this is so sinister that it is even tantamount to tearing off one's relationship.

It's hard to imagine that she has evolved from a weak girl who didn't have the courage to talk to Ryoma Esaki and Ruby Hoshino when they saw them talking to her to her current state in just two weeks.

Can we say that this is the power of love?

Hoshino Ruby was confused.

She froze in place, not knowing how to respond.

If she disagrees, it will only make her look guilty and petty.
