Chapter 779

~14 min read 2,726 words

Naoki Nagayama soon didn't have to think about what novel to write, because Akina came back early, and she looked sickly, having been sent to Sanyingyuan by her little assistant.

"Diarrhea?" Naoki Nagayama opened his eyes wide and looked at his girlfriend very unexpectedly, "What's going on?"

"It seems like it's because of the hot and cold weather after coming back from Hawaii..." Nakai Akina's eyes dodged.

"But, it's been almost a week since you came back!"

Naoki Nagayama was puzzled. Although Tokyo is in winter, it should have been adjusted in a week!

Seeing Nakai Akina's guilty look, Naoki Nagayama turned his eyes to the little assistant beside her~

Nakai Akina hurriedly gave a wink, but Maki Ueda wouldn't help hide it:

"Akina-chan ate ice cream in the afternoon!"

"???"

"And it was right after she finished rehearsing!"

"!!!"

Eating ice cream in the cold weather is actually understandable, but after rehearsing and being drenched in sweat, plus eating ice... I can only say that Akina now is really too willful~

Naoki Nagayama thanked Maki Ueda and sent her out of Sanyingyuan before returning to the living room~

Akina was curled up on the sofa, looking at Naoki Nagayama with innocent eyes, pretending that nothing had happened:

"Naoki-san, I'm thirsty~"

"..." Looking at his girlfriend's pale and weak face, Naoki Nagayama's impulse to scold her turned into heartache, and he could only helplessly tap Akina's forehead, "You..."

"Hee hee~"

Naoki Nagayama made some honey water and handed it to Akina. Naoki Nagayama asked his girlfriend in a low voice what the doctor said and whether she could eat anything at night.

She didn't eat much and planned to go to bed early at night to rest. Akina, who had been in poor health since she was a child, actually knew how to take care of herself; this time should just be an accident.

However, things are always surprising. At night, Akina felt her stomach suddenly hurt again, and she had some vomiting and diarrhea. After measuring with a thermometer, she even had a fever!

"Akina, let's go to the hospital, okay?" Naoki Nagayama gently helped Akina back to bed and was very worried when he saw her pale face, "It's become very serious..."

"I'm not going to the hospital! It's okay, it's just a common cold..."

For some reason, Nakai Akina seemed a bit stubborn,

"I used to catch colds often. I don't need to go to the hospital. I'll just take some medicine and rest for a night and I'll be fine!"

"..." Naoki Nagayama had no choice but to find some common medicine and feed it to Akina.

"Akina~" Naoki Nagayama also lay into the quilt and gently patted his girlfriend who was curled up in his arms and asked, "Why are you so resistant to going to the hospital?"

After waiting for a while, Nakai Akina said in a low voice:

"I was in poor health when I was a child, so I often had to go to the hospital... Every time I went, I had to spend a sum of money. My family was very poor at that time, so I had to eat Chinese cabbage for many days... So later I would rather recuperate at home. Anyway, I would be fine in two days..."

"..."

Naoki Nagayama sighed. Japan's universal medical insurance only began to be implemented in 1961. When Akina was a child, it should have just been in the construction period, and the conditions of Akina's family should not have been able to buy medical insurance for all children.

Medical care in capitalist countries is indeed unaffordable for the poor! This probably caused Akina's dislike of going to the hospital~

Naoki Nagayama hugged Akina a little harder. He just wanted to give his girlfriend a little more comfort and hoped she would recover tomorrow.

But at least now, they don't have to worry about not being able to afford medical expenses.

A night of silence~

Things didn't go as planned, and Akina's illness became more serious the next day...

Coughing and nasal congestion began to haunt her, but the fever subsided because she took antipyretics. She lay on the bed listlessly, without any strength in her body.

Speaking of which, Akina didn't seem to have been sick at all last year. The severe cold that struck suddenly this year was fierce, and it knocked Akina down all at once~

"Hai, Akina had vomiting and diarrhea last night... It's even more serious this morning, she can't even get up." Naoki Nagayama said to the arriving Fusunori Akina and Maki Ueda, "She probably can't go to today's schedule... Is it very important work?"

"It's a magazine cover shoot, and an advertisement shoot..."

Fusunori Akina and little assistant Maki Ueda said while walking upstairs. Since their artist was sick, he naturally had to visit. If Naoki Nagayama wasn't there, it should have been him and the little assistant taking care of her.

"It doesn't sound important, so she definitely can't go!" Naoki Nagayama said directly, "Postpone it!"

"..."

The senior agent was silent. You know, in the eyes of the agency, artists are just commodities. Even if they are popular artists, as long as they are not really seriously ill and hospitalized, they have to work even if they have a high fever!

Especially this kind of work that has already been booked, if you breach the contract, you have to pay!

However... Fusunori Akina looked at Nakai Akina, who was pale on the bed but in good spirits. The current Akina is no longer an ordinary artist who can be manipulated by the agency, and she has a powerful backing.

A few days ago, Naoki Nagayama went to Profound Sound and strongly demanded more rest time for Nakai Akina and reduced work intensity, which had already spread throughout the agency... including the incompetent rage of He Jian afterward.

"Fusunori-san~" Nakai Akina nodded and greeted when she saw her agent coming.

"Akina-chan... are you feeling any better?" Fusunori Akina could only make a gesture of visiting, his tone gentle.

"It seems worse..." Nakai Akina didn't have much strength when she spoke, "I probably can't go to work today~"

"Daijoubu daijoubu... health is the most important thing." Fusunori Akina immediately advised, "Akina-chan, recuperate first, and then consider work later..."

"Is there anything we can do? We will definitely do it..."

Nakai Akina shook her head: "Nothing..."

If it were last year, living in an apartment, she might have needed the agent to help boil water, cook, and take care of her. But now that she lives with Naoki Nagayama, she is not alone!

After saying a few more words, Fusunori Akina and the little assistant both said goodbye, wanting to let Nakai Akina have a good rest.

"Naoki-san, I'll leave it to you later~" Fusunori Akina said before leaving.

"Ha, I just happen to have nothing to do..."

Naoki Nagayama nodded. As for the appointment to go to Shogakukan, he had already called to explain it. They were not in a hurry there, and if they couldn't wait, coming to Sanyingyuan was also fine~

After speaking, the two agents left in a hurry. They were going to bow and apologize to the booked Party A!

Because of the artist's reasons, the work was postponed, and the agent naturally needed to settle it.

Returning upstairs, Naoki Nagayama touched Akina's forehead and felt relieved that it was not hot:

"Akina, is there anything you want to eat?"

"I want to eat cantaloupe!" Although she was sick, Nakai Akina was actually a little happy, "I also want to eat meat pie! And potato chips..."

Nakai Akina listed a bunch of food all at once... Can she eat so much even when she is sick?

"..." Naoki Nagayama touched Akina's forehead again, "You are not pretending to be sick, are you?!"

"No!" Nakai Akina acted like a spoiled child, "I also want to watch TV!"

"Then we have to go downstairs..." Naoki Nagayama looked at Akina who was curled up on the bed and was a bit helpless. The living room is not as good as the bedroom, and the sofa is not very warm.

However, the sick person seemed particularly willful:

"Then let's go downstairs!"

In the end, Nakai Akina realized her dream. Naoki Nagayama turned the air conditioner to the maximum, then laid a thick quilt on the sofa, and finally carried Akina down.

She could have walked by herself, but she insisted on being carried... Is there a saying that after getting sick, the psychology is fragile, so she needs more care?

Then he turned on the TV and watched it with Akina~

The cold wind blew outside, but Sanyingyuan was indeed steaming hot, and Eitaro even stuck out his tongue and began to pant to dissipate heat.

"Eitaro, do you want to eat?"

Akina teased Eitaro beside the sofa with a piece of meat jerky, causing the dog's thick tail to slap on the floor, and drool was about to flow out.

However, at this time, she smiled wickedly and threw the meat jerky to Miaotaro who happened to pass by... The orange cat naturally didn't refuse, and immediately carried it to the cabinet to enjoy it slowly.

The dog's eyes dimmed instantly... It whimpered, as if it were about to cry...

Naoki Nagayama shook his head, touched the dog's head, and handed over a piece of meat jerky to comfort it:

"Akina... don't always bully Eitaro~ How did he offend you..."

"No, I just feel that Eitaro's aggrieved look is very interesting!" Nakai Akina drilled into her boyfriend's arms again, and then said, "Such a big dog, it can actually cry!"

What a bad woman...

It should have been a miserable recuperation process, but Akina seemed very happy, and from time to time she directed Naoki Nagayama to do this and that, such as pressing her legs if they hurt, rubbing her shoulders if they hurt, eating fresh fruit if her mouth was dry, opening the glass door if the air conditioner was too hot...

Naoki Nagayama became more and more suspicious of whether she was pretending to be sick, but the nasal congestion and pale face were real...

Until noon, when the two were snuggling on the sofa watching TV, a noon news broadcast suddenly played.

"It is reported that at 11:00 this morning, Ms. Seiko Matsuda, who was at the Toei studio, held a press conference... indicating that she had officially broken up with Hiromi Go. Below, let's look at the live recording!"

When the host was speaking, an expression of surprise also appeared on her face, as if she couldn't believe it.

Then the screen changed to Seiko Matsuda accepting an interview... She had just come out of the Toei studio, her makeup hadn't been removed, and she started accepting the interview wearing a down jacket...

This state seemed a bit impatient and resolute, as if it were a sudden decision.

However, Seiko Matsuda is the pillar of the Sunny agency, and her personality is relatively strong, which allowed the agency to gather many reporters within a short time.

"It's definitely not because of hatred that we broke up..."

"If there is an afterlife, we will definitely love each other for a lifetime... I have a premonition..."

"It's really great to be able to spend the most important period of life together..."

Seiko Matsuda on the screen cried like rain, as if she really regretted and was in pain because of the termination of this relationship, and even the reporters on the side lowered their voices because of this.

Naoki Nagayama and Nakai Akina in Sanyingyuan both opened their eyes wide and looked at this news with great surprise.

"A press conference was specially held!!!" Naoki Nagayama exclaimed on the side, "It's really something Seiko-san would do!"

He had already determined that this news would definitely become a headline in the entertainment industry for a long time at the beginning of the New Year!!!

"Really!" Nakai Akina sat up straight, "Seiko-chan really broke up with Hiromi Go!!!"

"Akina, how come you seem to know it for the first time..."

Naoki Nagayama looked at his girlfriend,

"Haven't they been having conflicts for a long time?"

"Eh?!!" Nakai Akina opened her eyes wide and looked at Naoki Nagayama, "Naoki-san, you know?"

"Yes... the rumors have been there for a long time..."

"How could this be?!" Nakai Akina hit her boyfriend lightly, "You didn't tell me?!"

"..."

Akina, you are the one in the idol world, okay... Logically speaking, shouldn't you know more about this kind of news?!

"Akina, haven't you heard anything at all?"

"Weren't they fine at the Kohaku Uta Gassen?" Nakai Akina still couldn't believe it, "It was even the same group battle!"

"..... That's work....."

Artists in front of the camera naturally wear fake masks. It is still rare to see people as sincere as Nakai Akina in the entertainment industry.

"..."

Nakai Akina lay back in her boyfriend's arms, her mind wandering because of the news just now.

Naoki Nagayama sighed:

"Tomorrow... no, the evening paper today will explode... Seiko-san really threw a bomb at the beginning of the entertainment industry."

"..."

"Four years of dating... the golden boy and jade girl that everyone thought couldn't end without marriage..."

"..."

"The last pair recognized by the whole people was the Yamaguchi Momoe couple~ I didn't expect the result to be different..."

"..."

Naoki Nagayama finally noticed his girlfriend's silence and looked at her curiously:

"Akina... what's wrong with you? Is your cold worse?"

Nakai Akina sat up and stared at Naoki Nagayama:

"Naoki-san, we won't be like this, right?!"

"Hmm?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised. Is Akina worried or empathizing, "What are you talking about? How could we be like this!"

"Then let's hook pinkies!" Nakai Akina childishly stretched out her little finger, "Whoever breaks the promise has to swallow a thousand needles!"

The worry and anxiety in her heart made Nakai Akina come up with a child's agreement method, and her eyes were very determined.

Naoki Nagayama had no choice but to agree to hook pinkies...

"Whoever can't do it swallows a thousand needles..." After finishing the oath, she had to stamp it to confirm...

After that, Nakai Akina threw herself into Naoki Nagayama's arms again, holding him tightly:

"It's good that I'm sick today. If I were outside and knew this news, and Naoki-san wasn't by my side... I would definitely be worried to death!"

Naoki Nagayama patted Akina's shoulder to comfort her,

"We've already hooked pinkies..."

Yamaguchi Momoe cast a perfect idol image and obtained a beautiful love, but the top idol after her broke this point herself.

The officially recognized couple in the entertainment industry officially broke up, which is probably a blow to all fans who believe in love... Everyone entrusts their wishes to their own idols~

Like a big stone thrown into a pool, it splashed a large splash and set off ripples.

After the news was released, many reporters began to visit relevant personnel, Seiko Matsuda and Hiromi Go's agents, agency staff, friends in the circle...

Some reporters dialed the phones of both parents to ask for their opinions... Some reporters even went directly to their homes to interview their family members directly.

At the same time, countless calls were made to their agencies. As top artists in the idol world, their every move can attract attention, let alone such a big event!

This is almost the same as Naoki Nagayama and Nakai Akina officially announcing their relationship...

Eh? Wait...

Seiko Matsuda and Hiromi Go broke up, so the only popular idol relationship left is Naoki Nagayama and Nakai Akina!!

What do they think? Will they break up too?!

Some reporters started to associate and began to find another way to interview Naoki Nagayama and Nakai Akina...

So when Naoki Nagayama received Tomo Yoshimura's call in the afternoon, he was very confused:

"Asking if Akina and I will break up?"

Lowering his head, he happened to meet Akina's probing eyes...

"That reporter is sick... Which newspaper is it? Don't let the idols in our family accept his interviews in the future!"

"..."

Hanging up the phone... then the Profound Sound phone called again.

Nakai Akina gave almost the exact same reply:

"He Jian-san... I won't accept their interviews in the future!"
