Chapter 86: Female Entertainers Also Have Times When They Are About to Break

Four pieces of chocolate on Valentine's Day should count as the peak of Ren Amamiya’s life.

Although three pieces of chocolate were chocolate of gratitude, at least it was chocolate.

Of course, besides the meaning of the chocolate itself, the taste of the chocolate was actually not bad.

Mouri’s chocolate was slightly sweet with some bitterness, not very sweet and greasy, but neutralized the taste quite appropriately.

Suzuki’s chocolate was simply sweet, mm, the kind that is cloyingly sweet.

Kaguya’s chocolate was a bit average; it should be something she made herself.

Then there was Yoko Okino’s chocolate; her craftsmanship was not bad, adjusting the sweetness of the chocolate just right, belonging to the second best-tasting one besides Mouri’s.

"Ding-dong!"

Just as Ren Amamiya was tasting the chocolate, the doorbell rang.

As for who was knocking on the door outside, it was very obvious.

Opening the door, it was indeed Yoko Okino who lived next door.

Today she was wearing very casual clothes, with heat-insulating gloves on both hands, holding a large casserole.

"Don't speak first, wait until I go in and then talk."

Ren Amamiya didn't speak either, just cleared the way.

Yoko Okino smiled at Amamiya and walked straight into the room.

After walking into the room, Yoko Okino placed the casserole on the table.

She turned to look at Amamiya who walked in.

"I made some potato stew today, let's eat together."

"Do you entertainers usually have so much time?"

"Of course not."

Yoko Okino shook her head slightly.

"Entertainers are usually very hard-working."

"Various rushing to venues, sometimes even the time for sleep is very little, especially after becoming popular, the entertainer’s life becomes even more fulfilling."

Mm, this is what Ren Amamiya knows as an entertainer.

But it was also because of this point that Ren Amamiya was suspicious.

"Finally having a legitimate rest, do you still use your free time to cook?"

"Cooking is a way for me to release pressure."

Yoko Okino explained with a smile.

"The entertainer’s life is quite hard; sometimes there is no time, so I need to eat some takeout, and life becomes unhealthy."

"So when I have free time, I will spend some time cooking for myself."

"And the time spent on cooking won't make me very tired; instead, it will release some of the pressure I have in my entertainer life."

The way to release pressure is a bit strange.

But everyone has different ways of releasing pressure.

Ren Amamiya felt this way was a bit strange.

But thinking of the other party’s entertainer identity, when it is inconvenient to go out, finding a way to release pressure at home is instead reasonable.

"Entertainers need to control their weight, right?"

"That's right."

Speaking of controlling weight, Yoko Okino felt her head start to ache.

"It was very hard at the beginning."

"To maintain the body shape, many sweet things couldn't be eaten."

Recalling the experience of controlling food intake starting from high school, that was truly very painful.

"But after getting used to that state of diet, there won't be a situation of not being used to it."

"It's just that usually after eating some things that are easy to gain weight, I need to do corresponding exercise."

"I'll go get the rice first, let's eat and talk."

Saying this, she didn't give Ren Amamiya a chance to refuse and went out to the next door to bring the rice bowls over together.

Soon Yoko Okino returned with filled rice bowls and chopsticks.

The two sat opposite each other.

"Where were we just now?"

"The entertainer’s life is very hard, and there is also controlling food intake."

"Ah right, the entertainer’s life is super hard, those variety shows are sometimes really life-threatening."

Island country’s variety shows.

Ren Amamiya didn't watch variety shows much before, especially the variety shows from the island country.

But he also often swiped to see some variety shows where entertainers were pranked on Douyin; that was truly not treating people as people.

"Indeed, some variety shows are completely pranking entertainers."

"You've seen them too?"

"Mm."

A trace of luck flashed on Yoko Okino’s face.

"Fortunately, I don't need to participate in such variety shows that prank entertainers for the time being."

"Now I am still a popular entertainer, the company doesn't want me to go on that kind of variety show that pranks entertainers."

"Now what I need to do is maintain a good image at ordinary times."

"It must be very tiring, right?"

"Mm."

Temporarily stopping the movement of her chopsticks, Yoko Okino lowered her head and looked at the rice bowl.

"It is indeed very hard..."

"But it doesn't matter."

Yoko Okino directly laughed, making a V-sign, the smile on her face was also very cute and very energetic.

"The always energetic Yoko Okino wants to bring beautiful smiles to everyone."

That smile was real.

That mood was also not fake.

Rare, there really are idol stars who become idols for the fans.

"To bring smiles to everyone, what about your own smile? Miss Popular Entertainer."

Ren Amamiya asked a sentence.

The smile just now gradually converged, and the whole person spread out her hands and lay on the table.

"Although I really want to say that seeing everyone’s smile is the thing that makes me happiest."

"But it is really so tiring."

"Sometimes I'm so tired that I can't smile."

Full of negative emotions.

But Ren Amamiya wasn't surprised at all.

Opening spirit vision to look at the state of this female entertainer, the color of the astral body presented was dark, the color of melancholy.

Maintaining this situation for a long time is very easy to produce psychological problems.

No matter how energetic a female entertainer is, there are times when she is about to break down.

"Get up first."

Ren Amamiya put down his chopsticks, pulled up Yoko Okino who was lying on the table, came to the sofa on the side, and pressed her onto his lap.

"Eh?"

"I know you have a lot to say, but wait a moment."

Yoko Okino indeed had a lot to say, but she still followed what Amamiya said and didn't speak, but leaned her head on Amamiya’s lap.

Ren Amamiya didn't speak, but placed his hand on Yoko Okino’s forehead.

The mist that couldn't be noticed by people slowly dispersed on his fingers.

Fingers pressed and kneaded lightly, using spirituality and gray mist to guide Yoko Okino’s spirit body, thereby alleviating her mental state.

"Hmm~"

In this strange state, Yoko Okino clearly felt that she suddenly produced strong sleepiness.

Her eyes couldn't stop closing.

And as Yoko Okino entered a dream, her spirit also obtained a large degree of alleviation, and even the color of the astral body changed from dark to orange.

It was just that in this state, Ren Amamiya, who was being leaned on, couldn't move casually.
