The agency’s public relations department has already been notified. The article will probably come out this Friday,” Koyanagi Marin said. “I never expected that just going out once would get us photographed. Paparazzi really are impressive,” Nagayama Naoki…-

Chapter 25: 025, Breaking News! Is Kanako Higuchi Secretly in Love with a Mystery Man?! Lunch was settled at a small roadside restaurant. After finishing a satisfying meal, “It’s been so long since I ate at an authentic student-district shop like this. I really miss it,” said Kanako Higuchi.

Chapter 24: 024, Maybe We Should Try Going on a Date? Higuchi Kanako’s question made all three of them laugh. It really did resemble that. As the agency’s partner, Yoshimura Daitomo carefully explained the advertising concept to her. "Incredible… a love story like this, and you even created an original song for it?" Higuchi Kanako was genuinely surprised. She had never seen such a novel advertising format before. "Yes. The demo tape is right here. Naoki-san composed and sang it himself."…

Chapter 23 – “Higuchi Kanako: Are You Planning to Produce a Record?” When Nagayama Naoki arrived at the filming set, Ito Shuichi and Yoshimura Daitomo were already discussing the demo tape. “As expected from someone who created a chart-topping song. Naoki-kun really is a genius!” “If a song like this ends up inside an advertisement, record companies will probably cry.” Naoki happened to overhear them. “Then we can just release another record.” “Huh? How could we do…

He brought Nagayama Naoki to a Western-style building.

Chapter 21: 021, Is That Soda They’re Drinking? No, That’s Love! What do cherry blossoms symbolize in Japan? Love and hope. Yet because of their purity, brevity, and brilliant but fleeting bloom, cherry blossoms also carry a tone of sadness. “Shuichi-san, I think this project is too superficial!” Nagayama Naoki stated his opinion directly. “What? Superficial? What nonsense are you talking about! Kono yaro!” Ito Shuichi immediately flared up. Yoshimura Daitomo quickly tried to…

Chapter 20: 020, HALO Personal Studio — Becoming the Master Chief? The meeting the next day went smoothly. Their previous cooperation had been successful, and the future prospects were clear. The revenue split remained the same as before, 3:7. Nagayama Naoki did not request a higher percentage despite the strong results of the earlier advertisement. After all, that ratio already belonged to the higher tier within the industry. However, since this was now a year-long advertising contract, they…
