There are so many geniuses in crossover anime! What's wrong with adding me?

"..."

After exchanging lukewarm glances with him for a long time, Anhe Tiantong was the first to close his eyes—it's good to be young, your eyes get drier as you get older.

"Okay, I got it. I'll ask my agent to cancel tomorrow's work. I'm getting old, so it's okay to be a little willful and act like a diva."

"Grandma!" Anhe Mao exclaimed in surprise, not expecting her to actually agree. "Really?"

She's a well-known workaholic, and just like her usual standards for posture, she's even more demanding of herself.

“Since it concerns your future, it’s not so much that I can’t spare a single day.” Anhe Tiantong gazed at her gently, then paused. “Besides, I don’t want my granddaughter to feel that I completely neglect my family, just like my stepdaughter did.”

"grandmother……"

“However, since you’ve kept me here because of your talent, I hope what you want me to see won’t disappoint me too much,” she said, turning to the culprit.

"I try my best."

In fact, he hadn't decided what to show her yet.

But just like he and An and Subaru said, no matter what, they couldn't lose in terms of momentum!

Contrary to his arrogant and confident demeanor, when he returned to the team, he was immediately subjected to questioning by everyone:

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Why make such a rash decision? She's a big star! What are we even showing her?!"

"Hey! This is a problem you caused, so you'd better figure out a solution! Don't even think about staying here as the manager!"

"Oh no! If the performance doesn't please her, Subaru-chan is going to be taken away!"

"..."

Seeing his teammates scrambling and stealing before the battle even began, Sakurakoji Sai felt utterly exhausted.

Can't carry it.

……

Nighttime, at the dining table in the villa.

"How does it taste?" Anhe Mao struggled to maintain his posture and cautiously asked his grandmother.

When I'm with her, if she relaxes even slightly, I'll start lecturing her.

"Very good. There aren't many kids these days with such skills. Did you make this?" Anhe Tiantong tasted the delicacies on the table with a reserved and elegant air, a look of amazement flashing across his face as he sincerely praised them.

Although they are just some ordinary home-style dishes, it is precisely because of this that the skill is even more evident.

Unlike the standard dishes served in star-rated hotels, this warm and unique style highlights the chef's personal flair.

"...It's more accurate to say that Mr. Cai did it all by himself rather than us. We were just helping out." Jingqin Rencai also sat upright, not daring to relax as usual.

The other three nodded in unison. Although they had tried to slow down their chopsticks because of her presence, they still seemed a little rushed.

Their expressions were remarkably similar, revealing a mix of affirmation and restraint, as well as an appreciation for the food.

While enjoying the food in front of him, Ebizuka Tomo occasionally frowned and stared at Sakurakoji's talent with a meaningful look, never expecting that he would have such a special skill.

The more outstanding he was, the angrier she became, and the more she thought about it, the more hateful he seemed!

Rupa, who was also eating his food for the first time, had a sparkle in her eyes... It tasted like her mother's cooking.

Although the two tasted completely different, for some reason, she had this feeling—it warmed her heart as she ate them. Her gaze towards him softened even more, filled with shy joy—she liked them even more now.

Without reminding them of proper etiquette, Anwa Tendo put down his cutlery, looked up at Sakurakoji Takayuki, his eyes full of admiration: "It seems you're excellent in more than just one area, that's really good."

"I just made it simple, and I hope you like it."

“You’re too modest. Even in the Imperial Hotel, your culinary skills wouldn’t be considered lacking. Do prestigious families with long histories really emphasize culinary skills when teaching etiquette?” Anhe Tiantong asked with some curiosity in his eyes.

"No, I don't think so. I only studied it a little out of interest." He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and denied it.

It seems he's been exposed again, which is why he doesn't want to have much interaction with these filthy adults. Why bring up family matters all the time?

"Huh? What do you mean?" Jing Qinrencai realized what was happening and abruptly stopped using the long chopsticks in her hand.

Several people, including An and Subaru, also looked over with confusion and concern, quietly pricking up their ears.

"What? You didn't know?" Anhe Tiantong exclaimed in surprise. After looking around, he turned his question to his family, "Subaru, didn't you say Caihua was a rich young master? Don't you know his background?"

"Huh? Asking me?" Anhe Mao pointed at herself with a surprised expression, but there was probably no one else on the field who could answer the question for her, so she could only explain directly: "I don't know, we only know that Caihua's family is very wealthy."

"However, we don't know exactly what it does."

"Oh...did I do something wrong?" Anwa Tendo looked at him apologetically.

Even if you say it, so what? You're not planning to say it anyway, so you're half doing it on purpose—but it's easy to understand her concern for her granddaughter.

"No, it's nothing, it's not a big deal anyway." He took another small sip of miso soup.

"To be clear, I didn't mean to hide it, I just felt it was unnecessary, after all, I'm just an insignificant fan."

Besides, he wasn't the only rich kid there; was it really necessary to focus solely on him?

Ebizuka Tomo, who was standing next to her, was a well-known young lady in Sendai City before she ran away from home. It seems that she hasn't broken off the relationship yet.

An and Subaru's family is quite wealthy, and Iori Rina's house is clearly an expensive wooden ancient building.

"What are you talking about?" Momoka Kawara leaned forward, feeling completely bewildered.

“It’s nothing, it’s just that Grandma Anhe misunderstood.” Sakura Koji’s attitude was clear. “I think you are referring to the ancestral home of my maternal grandfather’s lineage, but we don’t actually have a good relationship with them. My family went abroad a long time ago, and our businesses are mainly overseas.”

Unlike Touma Yoko, who mainly works overseas, Anwa Tendo primarily stays in Japan. Therefore, even if she comes across the name Sakurakoji, she is likely referring to that region.

He didn't hide the complicated relationship. Unlike his gentle father who still harbored reconciliation fantasies, he had no habit of accommodating others, not even relatives.

Come or not, it's up to him. If you upset him, he'll just come and beat you up anyway.

“I see…” Anwa Tendo was genuinely surprised. “I’m very sorry for causing you some unpleasantness.”

"No, it's not a big deal. Anyway, their current assets are not worth our attention. It's just that their family history is a bit complicated."

"...Is that so?" She shook her slightly wrinkled face, and it was hard to tell whether to call him tolerant or Versailles.

“In short, what I invited you here to say is,” he put down his chopsticks, finished his meal, and looked directly at An and Tendo, “I assure you, I will make them successful, I guarantee it with my family and my surname!”

"I will be responsible for them for the rest of my life. If they don't achieve their goals, I will support them for the rest of my life!"

"So please don't have any worries, and feel free to entrust Subaru to me!"

After he finished speaking in a calm and powerful voice, the dining room fell silent instantly. Everyone stared at him with varying expressions—some surprised, some angry, some dumbfounded…

Finally, after a moment,

"ha?!!"

"W-what are you saying?! Is this a plea, a plea, a plea?!"

"That's a problematic choice of words, Mr. Talent!"

"I...I'm not ready yet..."

"What are you saying about talent in front of my grandma?! This statement is too easily misunderstood!"

"..."

"..."

Faced with the angry Ebizuka Satoshi, the excited and bewildered Inoue Nina and Kawara Momoka, the shy Rupa who didn't know why, and An and Subaru who were blushing and banging their heads on the table, Sakurakoji Sai clapped his hands to signal them to be quiet.

Then, with a serious smile, he asked Anhe Tiantong, "What do you think of this?"

Anhe Tiantong had lost count of how many times today he had been so shocked by him that he was speechless, staring blankly at him.

After a long while, he finally came to his senses from this bizarre situation: "Hahahaha...!"

"Grandma?!" Startled by her sudden laughter, Anhe Mao was at a loss for words. It was the first time she had ever seen her grandmother so out of control.

After laughing wildly for several seconds, Anhe Tiantong finally calmed down and slowly exhaled to return to normal.

She wiped her eyes, then smiled with great interest: "It's been so long since I've heard such an interesting remark. It's definitely a good thing to be young!"

"Alright, then I'll entrust Subaru to you with peace of mind. I trust you!"

"Thank you very much." Sakurakoji Saiki sat in the chair, bowing his head sincerely.

"Grandma!! How could you use such misleading lines?!" Anhe Subaru suddenly stood up, his arms straight at his sides, blushing and excitedly complaining to her.

"..." The other four people, unable to get a word in edgewise, looked at each other, unsure of what expression to wear.

Why did something as simple as having a meal become so complicated, so unexpected, and so heavy?

It even seems that their own lives have been inadvertently involved... Is forming a band such an exciting thing?

A rock band, they really are rock and roll.

After dinner,

Sakurakoji invited Anwa and Tendo to visit the temporary studio and watch their joint performance.

Since the matter had been resolved in advance, the group naturally had no worries and, with all their energy, almost sent her to the ICU.

After all, a recording studio can't compare to a concert hall. Even a rock band performance in a concert hall is exciting enough for an old lady like her, let alone a small practice room.

However, their emotionally rich singing and playing, as well as An and Subaru's radiant excitement and joy while playing the drums, still touched her heart, making her genuinely accept An and Subaru's career choice based on what she had just heard.

During her private conversation before she left, Sakurakoji Sai said to her again, "Don't worry, Grandma."

"Huh?" An and Tian Tong looked over in confusion, wondering what kind of trouble he was up to now.

"The relationship between band idols and actors isn't as far-fetched as you might think, is it?" He fluttered his eyelashes and chuckled nonchalantly. "Once I've made them a bit more famous, they'll be inundated with advertising and project offers."

"Once they gain fame, acting offers will definitely come one after another. At that time, I will let them participate in some film and television productions!"

“Crossing careers is very common now. Compared to a single acting career, don’t you think a career plan that spans singer, musician, idol, and actor is more exciting and challenging?”

"Furthermore, I welcome you to train Subaru anytime, and it's even fine to take her away for a short period of time to act together. I, as the manager, have given your permission!"

He mimicked Vegeta's defeated gesture and unilaterally made a decision for the band.

His power as the band manager is time-limited; if he doesn't use it, it expires and becomes invalid, so he might as well use it.

"Is that alright?" An and Tendo widened their eyelids in surprise. "Won't this interfere with your training and development?"

"Yi Nong, Yi Nong~ I'll allow anything that will help their future." He clasped his hands in agreement with a mischievous smile. "Originally, my opinion was that we should just take both into consideration."

"But considering that they are not as talented as me, I had no choice but to focus on one side for the time being."

"If it only takes up a small amount of time each time, it doesn't matter. As for acting skills and other things, I will also encourage and educate them. This is my responsibility as the manager."

"As a new-era band idol, simply playing music isn't enough! Well-rounded development is the key!"

As he described it, Anhe Tiantong gradually imagined such a bright future in her mind, which seemed even more dazzling and radiant than the path she hoped for.

She closed her eyes in resignation, but couldn't stop smiling. Taking a deep breath, she folded her hands over her stomach and bowed deeply to him: "I'm entrusting Subaru and the others to you."

"I don't deserve it, I also have many things I need to trouble them with." He didn't refuse loudly, and after accepting the gift, he returned the greeting in person.

If Anhe Tiantong's gaze towards him was initially one of satisfaction, now it is a mixture of expectation and melancholy.

"If only you were my grandson, Caihua."

“Every elderly person I meet says that.”

"Hahaha."

……

In front of the door,

"Grandma, are you really not going to stay here tonight?" Anhe Mao asked with concern, his brows furrowed.

Even now, she is still somewhat confused and can hardly believe that the problem that has troubled her for many years has been resolved so easily.

The key point is that Grandma didn't seem angry, even though the method he used was too... Just thinking about it made her face burn.

No, no, no, that was just what he meant as the band manager, nothing more!

“Well, it’s not good for an old man like me to keep bothering you young people, and the staff will also worry.” Anwa Tendo looked at Anwa Subaru, who looked exactly like himself back then, and his gaze was melancholy, as if he had traveled through the years.

"Subaru, just do what you want to do, but listen to Caihua's advice."
