Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku.

Finally, the shop assistant left, and Ayako Ogawa, who had been watched by Sato the whole time, blushed even more.

"I just said it offhand!"

Whether or not she was overheard, Ayako Ogawa just blurted it out.

"If I don't tell her, she'll definitely try to strike up a conversation!"

"I volunteered to be this shield as an agent!"

"But I'm just doing this for work, don't get me wrong!"

Hearing Ogawa's rapid-fire words and seeing his flushed face, as if he had been drunk, Sato couldn't help but chuckle.

This smile could be genuinely cute or a sign of admiration for one's own incredible abilities.

And we probably have a better idea of ​​why the cheat code can activate him.

The system of emotions doesn't consider one's own will.

Once there has been physical intimacy and the woman acknowledges it, they are considered lovers.

But then I thought about it again, and if it were in an era like the Warring States period, it could indeed be called a relationship between lovers.

This characteristic is absolutely bizarre.

However, based on the current sample, the emotional aspect should be more attractive, right?

But I'm not entirely sure, since his narration skills during his first shoot also added to his charm.

Charisma is a very useful thing for actors, and its versatility is higher than that of martial arts. However, compared to the solidity of martial arts, the skill of charisma still has a somewhat random element.

He wasn't quite sure how to continue unlocking, and if he messed things up and things got messed up, it would be troublesome, so he wanted to play it safe.

For now, talk to Xiaochuan more and get to know her better. Anyway, Xiaochuan is a great beauty, so he can't lose out no matter what. We'll talk about the rest later.

For now, the priority is to film the action scenes of the Shadow Legion well and gain the first batch of fans.

After all, his number of fans is still practically zero.

"What are you laughing at!?"

Ayako Ogawa, like an anxious rabbit, bit her lipstick with her silver teeth, but she seemed more embarrassed than angry.

Where is the cold demeanor she displayed at the company?

"I just think Ogawa-san is very dedicated."

"..."

Knowing that the other person was teasing him, Xiao Chuan would have been angry a month ago.

But now she was the one feeling guilty, and looking into Sato's smiling eyes, she felt she had already done too many outrageous things in front of him, so she didn't seem to have any grounds to be angry...

Before Ayako Ogawa could figure out how to teach this disobedient artist a lesson and save face for her manager and older sister, the shop assistant returned with a beautifully packaged bag.

"Here you go."

The shop assistant blushed and reached out her hand.

"Thanks."

"No...it's nothing."

Seeing the shop assistant stutter when the boy smiled at her, Xiao Chuan felt a little jealous.

Rationally, she knew she should be happy that he was becoming more handsome and popular, after all, he was an artist, and she could make money too. What she needed to do was use him to make more money.

This is a money tree!

Thinking about it that way, wouldn't everyone like a money tree...?

"Ogawa-san, you can go now."

The boy's smiling voice pulled Xiaochuan back to reality.

Before anyone knew it, he had already grabbed the bag and was standing in front of the door, exuding youthful energy, looking back at her blushing face.

"Ah... um..."

"Money tree, money tree, money tree..."

Muttering to himself, Xiao Chuan walked towards the boy.

"I bought three sets of clothes, that's about right."

Sato's gentle words successfully slowed down Ogawa's rapid heartbeat.

The boy's words didn't sound like he was obsessed with buying things, nor did they sound like he was impatient.

They've turned buying clothes into a job.

"That's about it."

Ogawa finally regained his cold expression, but the blush on his earlobes hadn't faded, and his long legs in high heels and black stockings still moved quickly: "Let's go buy skincare products next."

"Okay, and I'd also like to go to the beauty salon for routine treatments."

Sato responded and then continued.

Being handsome is an asset, and it's also a controllable charm stat. I don't know about cheat codes yet, but it's definitely possible to become more handsome physically.

He wasn't talking about that kind of pretty boy look, which isn't popular here, but rather basic hairstyles and facial care.

Even a tough guy shouldn't have a face full of acne.

Before, he didn't have money and could only do it himself. Now that he has money, he can hand it over to professionals, which saves him time.

Xiao Chuan nodded upon hearing this.

"How did you even think of that?"

She thought that Sato, being a boy his age and having previously worked as an extra, was immature and wouldn't care about such things.

But then I thought about it again, and this is Sato, the Sato who turned things around in a month, so it doesn't seem so strange anymore.

Do you have any recommendations?

"I asked," Sato said.

"Yes, I go there often, it's a place I know well. It costs 10,000 for a full service, and 30,000 for basic care services a month."

"The equipment is alright; it's all brand new and imported."

"OK."

Generally speaking, larger companies have partnered beauty salons and then reimburse expenses collectively.

But clearly, this does not include their firm, which is on the verge of bankruptcy.

I can't even get reimbursed for gas, let alone the beauty salon; if I'm any later, I probably won't even have enough for transportation.

If you calculate it this way, his future expenses will actually be quite high, so moving to a new house is out of the question for the time being.

However, housing is a secondary need.

The most important thing is to spend money to boost things that directly reflect popularity.

In short, the goal of making money remains unchanged.

Becoming a lead actor, landing a GG endorsement, and earning his first real fortune are the next priorities, which also align with the goal of saving the company.

As for secondary goals, they are to improve the quality of life, such as housing.

These are all things that Sato will need to accomplish step by step.

A beauty salon is an essential place to enhance one's charm.

......

After shopping for a short while, Xiao Chuan, who was clearly distracted, bought some clothes and cosmetics for himself, dropped the boy off at the tram stop, and went back to the company.

As for dinner? Sato still needs to go home to train, and Ogawa is even less likely to bring up such an embarrassing matter.

When Sato Ryo returned to his room, he first wrote down the money and future basic expenses in his ledger.

"All things considered, it should last for several months."

At least they've escaped the days of poverty where they had to worry about money.

Looking at the account book that had gradually become thicker through his own hard work, the boy's face showed a satisfied smile.

Instead of basking in the joy of being rich, the young man quickly picked up a creased book on acting and began mentally rehearsing his moves. In his mental rehearsals, apart from the first move, the sword-drawing technique, he hadn't yet mastered the second move, which was too slow.

Besides, he only passed the audition, not finished filming.

The goal of making money has not been achieved, and there is also the threat from Suzuki, a close associate, behind them.

At the very least, one must possess basic value. Even if the president is ruthless, one must still have the capital to act unjustly and go it alone.

These are not things he currently possesses.

Soon, the room fell silent. As the sun set, only the boy's muffled groans of pain and the occasional rustling of pages could be heard.
