"Moreover, a friend I haven't seen in a long time said he would be attending, and I also wanted to take this opportunity to chat with him."

"Because we both have very awkward personalities, we haven't seen each other since graduating from high school."

"Also, I'd like to meet your cousin and talk to her about your plans for the winter break."

Mashiro thought about it carefully and asked softly:

Will Chihiro come?

"Probably. Anyway, I had Nanami tell her in advance and also forwarded the text message to her."

What are your plans for winter break?

"It depends on your situation, and also on your aunt and uncle's plans. After all, the New Year is coming soon, and you probably want to spend it with your parents, right?"

While the UK also celebrates New Year's Eve, it's not as grand as Christmas.

From Masamune's personal perspective, it's better to spend the New Year with family.

“I want to be with Masamune,” Mashiro answered quickly, as if she hadn’t thought about it at all.

“In that case, I’ll talk to my aunt and uncle about it later. Anyway, they don’t really value the New Year in the UK, so I’ll see if they can come back to China and the two families can spend it together.”

Masamune paused for a moment, then added:

“If they can’t return to China due to work reasons, I can set aside a week to accompany you on a trip abroad.”

Watching the two talk like a family, Fujinomiya Neko felt a little envious.

If I could, I'd like to have a New Year that's different from the past ten years or so.

On the other hand, are these two really not lovers?

Chapter 79 Shiina Mashiro's Birthday Party

"Let's go."

As Karasuma Chitose finished her voice acting work for the day and stepped out of the sound company, she suddenly heard her brother's voice behind her.

"Where to go? A get-together?"

"The hotel? Have you forgotten what day it is today? Weren't you looking forward to it a few days ago?"

"Oh... I remember now, but suddenly I don't really want to go anymore."

Karasuma Chitose pursed his lips and muttered to himself in a very low voice:

“My birthday is the day after tomorrow, but apart from my parents and Wujingjun, no one remembers it at all.”

"On my birthday, I will definitely spend it at home, just like every year."

"They were born only three days apart, but their treatment was worlds apart."

"If I witness an even more boisterous birthday party at the hotel today, I'll definitely feel even more lonely the day after tomorrow, so..."

Karasuma Gosho extended his right hand, flicked her forehead lightly with his finger, and said with a smile:

"Don't say 'so,' I've already prepared your birthday present. Look forward to it the day after tomorrow."

"As for now, let's just treat it as going to freeload a meal."

"By the way, have you prepared your gift? If not, I can lend it to you."

"No need, it was prepared last weekend." Karasuma Chitose grinned mischievously. "Hehe...it'll definitely give her a surprise!"

"It can't be some kind of prank or anything like that."

"Don't worry, Wujing-jun, this is a phone charm that I carefully selected over a long period of time. It's the kind of phone charm that female high school students love right now."

While the two were chatting, an agent from Musashino's voice acting agency pulled up a short distance away, leaned out of the window, and waved to them.

"Wujing-jun, over here!"

"Thank you for your help again today, Mr. Ishigaki."

Karasuma Gojo sat down in the passenger seat, and after Chitose got in, he turned around and introduced her:

"Mr. Ishigaki, this is my younger sister, Chitose. Please take care of me."

"So Miss Chisui is Wujing-kun's sister. No wonder you two seemed very close at the company before."

As Ishigaki drove, he said with a smile:

"Miss Chitose, I am Ishigaki Hikoichi, Wujing-kun's manager. Nice to meet you."

"What do you mean by 'Wujing-kun's manager'? It sounds like a personal manager!" Karasuma Chitose asked, puzzled. "And why did you drive here? Are all managers this rich these days?"

"I am Wujing-jun's personal manager."

"Even a mere Wujing-jun has a personal agent? With your workload and salary level, is that even necessary?"

"Please don't underestimate Wujing-kun's commercial value. Due to his excellent appearance and outstanding acting skills, Wujing-kun has been very popular recently and has gradually entered the ranks of popular voice actors in the industry."

"Really? The only popular male lead he's ever voiced is Hachiman Hikigaya, isn't he?"

“I’ve voiced eight lead roles this year, it’s just that the other male leads aren’t that famous,” Karasuma Gojo couldn’t help but interject.

"That's it."

Hikoichi Ishigaki smiled and echoed, then said:

"Miss Chitose may have misunderstood something. Even for a popular voice actor, being able to play the lead role in one super popular anime a year is already quite impressive."

"Sometimes, taking that first step can make all the difference."

"In addition, as a newcomer to the agency, although I can afford a car, I am not so arrogant as to drive to and from get off work every day. That would not be very friendly to other agents at the same time."

"This car is the agency's official vehicle, used exclusively by popular voice actors."

"Is that so?" Karasuma Chitose was completely taken aback.

Beyond the surprise, I felt mostly bewildered.

Although I joined Musashino later, I joined around the same time as my brother, so why is there such a big difference in our current situations?

When doing voice acting, I mostly just sit there in a daze, only occasionally uttering a line or two.

Is it because I haven't graduated from voice acting training school yet? Or is it because I didn't graduate from high school, which makes it difficult for me to get many jobs?

"Since Wujing can become a popular voice actor, as siblings, there shouldn't be much difference in their talents."

"So, does that mean that once I graduate from high school and start taking on a lot of work, I can quickly become a popular voice actress?"

"Hehehe... Suddenly I feel like my future is bright, and I have a very promising future. I won, hahaha..."

At this moment, the car stopped in front of the hotel.

"You all go in first, Wujing-jun, I'll go park the car over there."

"Wait a moment!"

Noticing several young women in formal attire chatting idly at the hotel entrance, Karasuma Chitose quickly said:

"I haven't changed my clothes yet, is this outfit really appropriate?"

"It's alright, I'm just wearing casual clothes," Karasuma Gojo said with a smile.

"Nonsense! The suit you're wearing can be worn casually, and it won't look strange to wear it to a formal occasion, but women's dresses can't be worn casually."

Karasuma Chitose pouted, silently having second thoughts.

"I'll be so embarrassed if I go in dressed like this! Wujing, why don't you deliver the gift for me? If anyone asks, just say I sprained my ankle."

"Well... I know for sure no one will ask me."

Upon hearing this, Ishigaki Hikoichi suggested:

"There's a high-end clothing store nearby. Would you like to buy or rent a formal dress there?"

Karasuma Chitose's eyes lit up, and he said with great interest:

"Go, brother!"

Karasuma Gojō was speechless. It was only in places where he had to pay for his own money that he would call his brother "brother".

"If you're only going to wear it once, there's no need to buy it; renting it for a day is fine."

"mean."

"When you earn more money in the future, you can buy it with your own money."

“Wujingjun’s money is my money. We all share the same wallets. If you’re not happy about it, you can use my money too.”

"Don't think I don't know how much money you made last month. If you're not financially independent yet, don't pretend to be generous."

?

To be honest, I haven't seen Wujingjun's salary details for the past few months.

I received a little over 11 yuan last month. I wonder how much Wujingjun received?

I'll just sneak a peek when I get home tonight.

They arrived at the hotel entrance around 6 p.m., and it wasn't until after 7 p.m. that the Karasuma siblings finally stepped inside.

"Wujing-jun, you've arrived! This way!"

As soon as I entered the lobby on the third floor via elevator, a loud singing started up.

Looking up, you can see the five members of K-On! singing a birthday song on the stage at the far end of the hall.

Judging from the lyrics, it seems to be a song written by Akiyama Mio.

'That's so nice; someone even writes a birthday song for me on my birthday.'

While Karasuma Chitose felt envious, he was actually more curious.

According to what she knew, Mashiro was too withdrawn and probably didn't have many friends.

I thought the birthday party was mostly attended by Masamune Hayase's connections, but it seems that's not entirely true.

"Your Majesty, over here!"

Karasuma Chitose looked around and quickly noticed Aoyama Nanami waving at him.

At the table where she was, all the female voice actresses belonged to Musashino, including a young woman she didn't recognize.
