I am a freeloader in the anime world

"Mother."

After an unknown amount of time, Sakurajima Mai spoke again. This time, her words were filled with excitement and persistence.

The look in Sakurajima Mai's eyes when she looked at Su Yang was filled with deep and passionate emotions, and she poured out her heart without reservation.

"Yang Jun, he has a special preference for me, and this feeling is also burning in my heart. No matter how Yang Jun will transform in the future, I will never regret my choice. I will never become like you, mother."

While Sakurajima Mai was talking, she inadvertently kicked Su Yang's calf. This action was full of mystery and mischief, as if conveying some subtle emotion in a silent way.

Under the gaze of Sakurajima Mai's slightly worried yet affectionate eyes, Su Yang felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart. He opened his mouth at the right time, his voice gentle but firm.

"Aunt, I will never give Mai to anyone else. Likewise, I will never leave Mai. I will always stay by her side and never abandon her. And..."

"Shut up."

Mai Sakurajima lowered her head shyly, and whispered to her boyfriend beside her in a thin voice, fearing that he would say even sweeter words.

At the same time, she subtly gave a hint to her mother sitting opposite her with her eyes.

"Sorry, Auntie, I just..."

With his keen insight, Su Yang quickly caught the subtle changes that flashed across Sakurajima Mai's eyes, and he immediately understood her true intentions.

In order to defuse the somewhat awkward situation, Su Yang took decisive action. He cleverly provided Sakurajima's mother with a way out, allowing the lady to resolve the embarrassment in a decent manner, thus significantly easing the originally tense atmosphere.

"You don't have to continue. I wasn't calm enough just now."

As Mai Sakurajima's mother and former agent, she is naturally a mature woman who has experienced many ups and downs and has rich social experience.

Since she had done something wrong, she naturally admitted without hesitation that she had been inappropriate in her attitude towards her daughter's boyfriend.

However, even in such a situation, the look she cast towards Su Yang was still as cold as ice, like the cold wind of Siberia, sharp and biting, penetrating people's hearts, without any warmth at all. The coldness in her eyes seemed to be able to freeze everything around into ice, making people dare not approach easily.

"As for your boyfriend, I will no longer interfere too much in your private life. However, there is one thing I must firmly remind you, that is, you must not live together. This is my concern for your future and safety, and I hope you can understand and abide by it."

Once the conversation started, Mai Sakurajima's mother immediately returned to her previous strong woman self.

"In addition, I also hope that you can return to my company as soon as possible. Don't shoot commercials and participate in activities for other companies for short-term financial benefits, which may have a negative impact on your long-term development. I will tailor a suitable script for you so that you can show your talents in a more stable and favorable environment. Only under my arrangement can you get better development."

"..."

Su Yang looked at Sakurajima Mai's mother with a question mark on his face.

No, this is directed at my company? My company only has one artist under contract, Mai Sakurajima!

Oh, no, it seems that they also signed a Nakano Ichika.

"No! I will not go back to your company, mom!"

Sakurajima Mai protested.

Regardless of whether Sakurajima Mai's mother's views are accurate, Sakurajima Mai will undoubtedly have a broader development prospect at Tomato Entertainment.

After all, in comparison, although my mother's company may be slightly more familiar in the entertainment industry, it is far inferior to Tomato Entertainment Company in terms of company background and resources.

Therefore, from an objective analysis, Mai Sakurajima will have more opportunities and advantages at Tomato Entertainment, which will help her career move to a higher level.

Besides, Mai Sakurajima doesn’t just shoot commercials and attend events at Tomato Entertainment, she also has a good script, but it’s just not finished yet and has not been released.

What's more, as a daughter, how could Mai Sakurajima not know what would happen if she returned to her mother's company?

Mai Sakurajima had already made up her mind that she would no longer be willing to be a pawn in the hands of her mother, allowing her to be manipulated at will, in order to take revenge on her former scumbag father and his current wife.

Deep in her heart, she longed to break free from the shackles of this exploited fate and pursue her own freedom and dignity.

She longs to break free from this endless bondage, bravely pursue her dreams and happiness, and become a truly independent and autonomous woman.

The most important thing is, Tomato Entertainment Company is not a company owned by any outsider, right?

"Mom, you must be exhausted after driving all the way from Kanagawa Prefecture. I'm sure you haven't had time to eat yet. I'll go to the kitchen and prepare some delicious food for you. I hope you can rest for a while and enjoy a delicious meal."

"Mai..."

Sakurajima Mai's mother still had some thoughts of persuasion in her heart, but when she raised her head, she found that there was no one in front of her and the familiar girl had disappeared without a trace.

Cooking...

Has Mai learned how to cook in the two years since she left home?

(PS: Mai Sakurajima quit the entertainment industry when she was in her third year of junior high school. The original story begins when Mai Sakurajima is in her third year of high school, so here it says she left home for two years.)

Su Yang stared at Sakurajima Mai's mother, her head lowered, as if she was carrying a heavy burden. She was immersed in a deep and unspeakable sadness, and her expression revealed endless sorrow and loneliness.

Looking at her like this, Su Yang couldn't help but feel a strong sense of pity in his heart, as if he could feel her inner pain and struggle.

A complex emotion suddenly surged in Su Yang's heart, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Perhaps, this mother is not without remorse for forcing her daughter to take swimsuit photos two years ago.

Beneath that seemingly cold and ruthless appearance, perhaps there is hidden regret and self-blame that is unknown to others, but she has never easily revealed these emotions.
