"May I ask, on which day will your official performance take place?"

A young woman approached Ryuto and inquired.

"Oh? Official performance...?"

Now Ryuto was left feeling bewildered, wondering if he had caused trouble somehow.

"I also would like to know where your official performance will be held."

"It's truly fascinating, I must attend."

"Exactly, I've already marked my calendar for this performance. Not only will I go, but I will also bring my whole family along."

"I agree, especially with you. Your previous performance was simply too realistic, the lines you delivered shook me to the core, as if I had been baptized entirely."

Others also crowded around, expressing their excitement.

"Um..."

Please don't ask me, how would I know?

At this moment, a certain middle-aged man wearing sunglasses approached.

"Apologies, I'm a talent scout from Huadong Entertainment. Your performance just now left a deep impression on me, and I would like to, no, I invite you to come to our company. We are prepared to create a special script for you, what do you think?"

The man handed Ryuto his business card.

"Huh...?"

Huadong Entertainment? I feel like I've heard of it before...

Oh, right, it's probably that top 500 world film and television company. Meixue might be very sentimental, but that's not really my thing, feels like it's out of my league...

"Haha..."

Ryuto could only respond with a wry smile.

What should I do now? This has become quite a mess.

Just as Ryuto was complaining silently.

"Please wait a moment."

Anna stepped forward and spoke politely.

"Everyone, the specific time and location of our performance will be announced in the next two days. The reason for this decision is that we haven't finalized it yet, after all, we're not sure if everyone will approve. But seeing all your reactions, we are reassured and will make a decision soon, not wanting to disappoint your expectations."

"Oh..."

The crowd cheered, but as for the talent scout.

"Sir, I'm delighted by your invitation on Ryuto's behalf, but he needs time to consider. He can't decide now, and I apologize on his behalf for that."

This made the talent scout a bit embarrassed.

"No, no, it's fine, I'm always open. Just give me a call when you're ready."

"Okay, if there's interest, I will contact you."

With that, Anna accepted the business card from the talent scout.

"Well, we have some matters to attend to, so please excuse us for now."

"Of course."

After successfully dismissing everyone, Ryuto finally escaped the crowd of strangers.

I really shouldn't be reckless...

"Sorry for making you help me."

"No, it's nothing. After all, Ryuto handled such a big thing, I can only help wrap things up at best."

"By the way, you seem to be good at this kind of thing, even though it's a bit... for me."

To this, Anna just shook her head.

"It's nothing, I've learned this since I was young, and at banquets, I always need to act this way, because there are always many people approaching me, even though they..."

As she spoke, Anna's eyes dimmed.

"I'm sorry, I might have said something I shouldn't."

"No, Ryuto doesn't mind, and..."

For some reason, Anna suddenly smiled faintly.

"Didn't expect Ryuto to do that kind of thing."

This left Ryuto a bit puzzled.

"Huh? That kind of thing?"

"Seems Ryuto isn't aware. For you, it might just be a very ordinary thing, too insignificant to notice..."

As she said this, Anna's eyes narrowed.

The meaning hidden behind her words and gaze was something Ryuto couldn't comprehend at the moment.

"..."

Oh my...

Can't you just speak clearly instead of muttering to yourself? I can't understand at all, couldn't you be more straightforward?

"Is that so..."

So Ryuto could only pretend to understand, putting on a smile that hid his confusion.
