I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

After the reunion, everyone had planned to have a meal together, but because everyone had their own families and personal matters, they were unable to get together.

But this meeting allowed us to get a general understanding of each other's situation, and it was also a very meaningful experience.

The men who once envied Uehara Tetsu looked at his receding back and said with a smile: "Although we have lost to him in many things, there is one thing we will never lose to him."

"Yeah, we both have kids."

"By the way, didn't he say he was a voice actor?"

"Go home and let your children watch the cartoons he dubbed."

"good idea!"

After walking for about a few minutes, Toru Uehara subconsciously looked back, although he could no longer see those figures.

But he also felt quite emotional in his heart.

The next time we meet may be a long, long time later.

A person’s life…

Xiaohua noticed Uehara Toru's expression and said with a smile: "Tetsu, if you still want to meet them, then next time, why don't you return to your hometown to hold the wedding?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Sumire Uesaka beside him immediately raised her head and chest.

Uehara Toru: "You think far ahead."

"But there is always a chance."

September 12

On this day, Toru Uehara did not go out, but chose to stay at home, chatting with his mother, watching TV, and went to the farmland with Nina and others to check the situation.

December

As night fell, everyone gathered together to watch the Red and White Song Contest and eat hot soba noodles. Uesaka Sumire, Anhe Subaru, Nina and Xiaohua also carefully made a cake for Uehara Toru and prepared gifts for each of them.

Sumire Uesaka gave her an extremely luxurious watch - Patek Philippe 5227R-0, which has a market price of at least two million yen.

If it were in the past, Toru Uehara would most likely not have accepted it, but now... money is no longer important to him.

An Hesuba gave her a winter coat, which was also from a famous brand and was both high-quality and practical.

Nina presented him with an original song that she had written and composed, and sang it to him on the spot.

The simplest small flower is a popsicle.

it is more than words.

Uehara Toru looked at the gifts and couldn't help but smiled and shook his head, but he still accepted them one by one, even Xiaohua's popsicle. Although his parents didn't prepare any special gifts, he didn't mind. Simple company was the best New Year's blessing.

January 1st

On the first day of the New Year, he and his family ate rice cake soup and sent Renai and An Hesuba to the station. Before leaving, he gave them some simple instructions and handed them the specialties from his hometown that he had prepared.

"Be careful on the road, and remember to send me a message when you get there."

I waved goodbye to Nina, Yasu and Subaru, and the station gradually became farther and farther away.

Time flies, and there are only one and a half days left before the end of Toru Uehara's vacation. It is almost over.

However, at this moment, Sumire Uesaka, who was standing next to him, was in high spirits.

All the troublemakers have left! Now it's finally my turn!

——:

Tomorrow I will end the countryside chapter and return to Tokyo.

Asking for a monthly ticket.

Volume 134: Chapter Chapter Separate Social Death, Meet the Shuiying Sisters Again

As Toru Uehara walked out of the station, a cold wind blew in his face. He tightened the collar of his coat and prepared to leave, but the vibration of his cell phone stopped him.

He pulled out his phone and a new message popped up on the screen.

Audition results.

Toru Uehara was slightly stunned, then clicked to open it. The moment he saw the content of the message, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth involuntarily.

And there are two characters together.

Both "Invasion" and "SSSS Grid" were successfully selected.

He suddenly thought of Rena Ueda who was also participating in the audition.

So he quickly opened the chat software and sent her a message.

The food I cook is the best: Reina, how did the audition go?

-

Reina Ueda, who was on vacation in her hometown, saw the message from Toru Uehara and her eyes lit up. She put down her chopsticks without hesitation and began to type a reply.

The family thought she would just reply to a message and continue eating, but she just sat there, laughing and typing, and she didn't stop even after ten minutes. Finally, she simply stood up and left the table holding her phone.

"Sorry, I have something to do. You guys eat first." After saying that, she walked away quickly.

Rena Ueda's parents and younger brother, who were staying at the table, were all stunned for a moment, and looked at Takahashi Rie, who was sitting beside them and eating with relish, with a confused look on their faces.

"Mr. Takahashi, what's going on?" the mother couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm?" Takahashi Liyi raised her head while chewing her rice. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she said with a smile, "Ah~ I was just chatting with a male colleague who I get along well with."

"Male colleague?" My brother was a little stunned.

"Are you getting along well?" There was a hint of tentativeness in the mother's tone.

At this time, Gao Qiao Li Yi suddenly put down her chopsticks and lowered her voice mysteriously: "I have some photos here, do you want to see them?"

"Photos?" The three of them pricked up their ears immediately.

"But..." Takahashi Liyi raised a finger and put on a serious expression, "It must be kept secret. This is an incredibly handsome guy."

The family looked at each other, their eyes full of irrepressible curiosity.

"..."

-

Following Uehara Toru's suggestion, Ueda Reina brought Takahashi Rie back to her hometown. It turned out that Takahashi Rie was indeed a genius at adjusting the atmosphere. The family conflicts and estrangements that had troubled them for a long time gradually disappeared in Takahashi Rie's relaxed and natural laughter and clever words.

Looking back, the problems that worried her in the past seemed insignificant and not as difficult to overcome as she had imagined. She couldn't help but sigh that if she hadn't had a serious talk with Uehara Toru, she didn't know how long she would have avoided them before she had the courage to face them.

During this period, Ueda Rena had not taken the initiative to contact Uehara Toru, and she always felt that she owed him something. Now that she had finally received his news, she certainly wanted to take the opportunity to chat with him for a while.

The food I cook is the best: Have you dealt with the issues between you and your parents?

Kotaro is the cutest: Well, thanks to you.

Kotaro is the cutest: What about you, Toru-kun?

I cook the best food: it wasn't done well, but it doesn't matter. I have a lot of things in mind, but I can't explain them on the phone. Let's talk about it when I return to Tokyo in two days.

Kotaro is the cutest: Okay.

Standing in the warm winter sun, Reina Ueda gently held her mobile phone. The cold shell seemed to be gradually warmed up by the temperature of her palm. She looked up at the quiet and beautiful scenery of her hometown, and thought of the conversation with Toru Uehara just now, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.

He once said that he wanted to travel to her hometown.

Thinking that this day might really come, she felt a sense of anticipation. By then, no matter what, she would definitely convey her feelings to him.

Sorry, Che-kun, I was the first to breach the contract.

……

After following Uehara Toru back home, Sumire Uesaka has been thinking about how to use her time these past two days. She thought, maybe she could go shopping with her teacher first, then do something he likes together... and finally, muster up the courage to confess?

As soon as she thought of the word "confession", Sumire Uesaka's face began to heat up and her heart began to beat fast. But just as she was immersed in her own little plan, a gentle voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Xiao Jin, come here for a moment."

"Hmm?" She raised her head and looked towards Shangyuan Chunji - the elegant and beautiful aunt.

Sumire Sigumi Saka quickly stood up and walked in front of Tsubaki Hime obediently, suppressing the impulse in her heart - she really wanted to change her words and call her "Mom" right now.

"Auntie, is there anything wrong?" she asked tentatively.

Ai Chunji smiled slightly, her eyes gentle: "Nothing, I just want to take a good look at you, and then... I was thinking, should I take you to customize a kimono?"

"Customize it for me?" Sumire Uesaka was a little confused and blinked.

"Of course it's for you." Uehara Tsubaki said with a smile, "You like my Toru, right?"

This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, and Uesaka Sumire's cheeks immediately turned red. Although she had always been brave enough to admit her feelings, she was still a little overwhelmed when her elders said it so bluntly.

"That's right." She nodded gently and admitted quietly.

"Since you like him, as his mother, I have to prepare some things just in case, right?" Tsubaki winked mischievously, "We'll go to the kimono shop together later and talk about what Toru has liked since he was a child."

Sumire Uesaka was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, Auntie."

Chunji smiled with satisfaction, but pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Call me mom."

Sumire Uesaka hesitated for a second, her face turned even redder, and she spoke softly, "Mom...Mom."

"Oh, little Sumire is so good!" Tsubaki was overjoyed. She immediately opened her arms and hugged Uesaka Sumire tightly. The maternal radiance emanated from her without reservation, as if she had already accepted this future daughter-in-law.

Sumire Uesaka, who was held in Tsubaki's arms, felt the tension in her heart gradually melt away, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of her lips.

win!

Toru Uehara sat in the living room, his eyes fixed on the TV screen. The program was still replaying last night's Red and White Songs Contest, while the live broadcast of the Hakone Ekiden would not begin until 8 a.m. tomorrow.

He looked out the window and felt a little bored.

"Why don't we go out for a run? It'll be a good way to exercise." He thought to himself and decided to take Xiaohua along.

He turned to look at Uesaka Sumire, only to find that she was already chatting animatedly with her mother. The two seemed to be having a great time together and didn't even notice his gaze.

"Tetsu, sir," Tsubaki Jiji suddenly turned around and said to him, "Xiao Jin and I are going out to buy some clothes. Do you want to come with us?"

Uehara Toru waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone: "You guys go ahead, I won't get involved."

Tsubaki had expected him to refuse, so she didn't try to persuade him. She smiled and took Sumire Uesaka's arm, preparing to go out. "Then we're leaving. Please take care of the house." She left with Sumire Uesaka after giving her a warning.

Uehara Toru went upstairs and changed into sportswear. The short-sleeved shirt and shorts made him look smart and light. He was about to warm up when he saw his father Uehara Goki coming out of the study.

Uehara Goki obviously didn't sleep well last night, and his face was a little tired. He looked at his son's sporty outfit and couldn't help asking, "Where are you going?"

"Running." Uehara Toru answered briefly and in a flat tone.

Ever since he got to know his father's other side, he found that his anger towards him had dissipated a lot, and what he felt more was just helplessness.

"...Running," Uehara Goki glanced at him and snorted, "You seem to be in good health."

Uehara Toru glanced at him when he heard this, and said directly as always: "You look quite weak."

"What?!" Uehara Goki was immediately furious. This sentence not only hurt his self-esteem, but also directly hit the man's reverse scale.

Moreover, this was what his son said.

He glared at Uehara Toru angrily and said through gritted teeth: "How far are you going to run? I will run with you! Wait!"

After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs angrily, took out his long-dusty sneakers and sports suit, ready to compete with his son.

Toru Uehara, who was standing downstairs, watched this scene with a disdainful smile on his face.

"Sure enough, I am a bit like him." He thought to himself. When faced with a provocation from a relative, he would accept it with 100% determination no matter what. This was something he inherited completely.

……

After the warm-up, Uehara Toru turned around and looked at his father beside him. Uehara Goki was standing there, motionless. He frowned and asked coldly, "Aren't you going to warm up?"

Uehara Goki, who had already changed into a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, acted nonchalant. Although his nose was almost running from the cold, he still said, "Why warm up? I can't run a few kilometers. Let's get started!"

Toru Uehara just smiled, didn't say much, then started running.

At the beginning, he deliberately controlled the speed and kept it in a relatively comfortable range, neither too strenuous nor too easy. After all, it would be too boring to crush the opponent right from the start. To deal with someone like Uehara Goki who is stubborn and competitive, you have to make him feel that there is still some hope, and then slowly make him realize his limits.

The cold winter wind blew in his face, like a fine blade cutting his skin, but Uehara Toru's breathing gradually became stable, and his body also got into shape. The more he ran, the more comfortable he felt. When he passed by Xiaohua's house, he saw Xiaohua already standing at the door waiting, so he smiled and waved to her, signaling her to join.

Seeing this, Xiaohua immediately ran over with a smile and joined them. She glanced at Uehara Wuhui who was out of breath behind her and couldn't help but teasing, "Uncle, can you do it? Do you want me to break the wind for you?"
