I became a girl group idol for my sister.

"Of course I'll watch it. I'm worried that I might be called on a show sometime and then I won't know how to react..." Miyamoto said with a hint of helplessness: "Tempai-P is definitely capable of doing that!"

Sakagami Minami was speechless. Amagai Risa was indeed capable of doing such a thing.

Just then, a person suddenly appeared.

"Leave the training on Nana-chan's variety show skills to me!"

The person who suddenly appeared was Naoki Sakurako. She even had a bowl in her hand with ramen in it. She sat down to the side while eating the ramen.

Minami Sakagami was startled when she saw Naoki Sakurako appear.

"Sakurako, you... how did you get out here!"

"Of course I'm here to eat, and um, to see what you two are doing."

Naoki Sakurako, who made no attempt to hide her involvement in the matter, slurped up her noodles, then took a sip of soup, making a happy sound.

"The noodles here are really great, and the soup is so rich!"

However, at this moment, the other two people's attention was elsewhere, and they even completely ignored the fact that the other party was following them.

"Sakurako, you mean you're here to give Nana special training?!" Sakagami Minami asked excitedly.

"Sakura-senpai, are you here to give me special training?"

Miyamoto was equally excited. Variety shows were his weakness, and he knew this very well. So if he could receive special training from the other party, it would mean that he would have more ways to deal with TV variety shows in the coming period of time.

"Okay, I'll be giving you special training, but we'll need to live together for a while. Is that alright?"

"Living together?!" Miyamoto's voice rose slightly.

"I asked Tenbei P, and your departure time to Osaka is five days from now, so you only have so little time for special training. If you can't make me laugh, then it can't be considered a success!"

At that moment, Miyamoto felt the pressure the other person was putting on him. He remembered what the other person had told him when he was a graduate student.

Naoki Sakurako is considering graduating and hopes to join Team K to become their successor.

However, since Higashi Hisako has graduated first, she cannot leave and needs to continue supporting SKR.

SKR is now facing greater pressure than before, not only from external sources, but also from newly formed sister groups who are eyeing SKR's position as the leader. The competitive pressure comes from all sides.

So, under this pressure, Naoki Sakurako found Miyamoto Sei. Miyamoto Sei was not only facing pressure, but also the source of this pressure: the hope that the other person placed on him!

So in these five days, you must learn how to present yourself on variety shows!

"Please, Sakura-senpai!"

Seeing Miyamoto Sei's firm reply, Naoki Sakurako smiled: "Leave it to me!"

Chapter Sixty-Nine Exchange

"Huh? Senpai and Naoki Sakurako-senpai are going to be living together for a while?!"

Nanase Touka looked at Miyamoto Sei in surprise, while he seemed quite natural.

“Yeah, my senior is going to give me special training…” Miyamoto Sei showed a helpless expression: “The retribution for giving you special training has come, now it’s my turn.”

Seeing Miyamoto Sei's attitude, Nanase Touka asked with some confusion, "Senpai doesn't seem to want to be given special training?"

"No, it's just that because of the special training, we have to use all our time and live together, which I'm a little resistant to," Miyamoto said.

"Huh? Senpai doesn't like living with people?!" Nanase Touka seemed very surprised: "But when I saw Senpai living with me..."

She hesitated for a moment.

"Could it be that you were actually... enduring it all back then?"

"It's not really about enduring it. You're like a younger sister to me, it's not a big deal. Besides, I'm used to it." Miyamoto said, "But Sakura-senpai is different, she's an older man!"

"Uncle?"

"Yeah, sir! Her personality is totally like an old man's! She attacks people all the time, I've been attacked several times!" Miyamoto immediately said, "Just last time when we were filming the single together, she was even jumping around naked in front of us. If Minami-senpai hadn't stopped her, I don't know how long she would have caused trouble..."

“But… Naoki-senpai must have her own reasons for doing this, right?” Nanase Touka said slowly, though she seemed a little uncertain.

"Yes, that's true. She can quickly put everyone at ease when they're tense. Many of her actions are actually to bring everyone closer together. Although she's the center of Team K and the most amazing idol, she's a very approachable person."

"Woo..."

Nanase Touka let out a low, mournful cry, and Miyamoto Sei asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?"

"N-nothing, it's just that I'm thinking about how little time I'll have with you from now on..." Nanase Touka said softly, "I wonder what it will be like at AJS."

"AJS? I don't know, but I think it should be a great experience!" Miyamoto thought about the new companions and challenges he would encounter when he arrived at AJS, and couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"That's not what I meant..." Nanase Touka muttered to herself, then said nothing more.

"Eh? What did you say?"

"It's nothing, senpai!" Nanase Touka nudged Miyamoto Sei: "Alright, aren't you supposed to have special training with Naoki-senpai? Hurry up and go!"

"Oh well."

Miyamoto could only say that before leaving.

Watching Miyamoto leave, Nanase Touka also packed her things and walked out the door.

"Sure enough, I'm finding it hard to adjust after coming back..."

She muttered to herself as she walked toward the station.

……

"Sakurako-senpai, I'm here!" Miyamoto called out to Naoki Sakurako, who was waiting at the agreed-upon place. "I'll be relying on you for the next few days!"

"It's no trouble at all, let's go. By the way, which number am I to have visited your house?" Naoki Sakurako asked.

“The first one.” Miyamoto Sei answered directly: “No one else has been to my house before, Sakurako-senpai is the first.”

"Am I the first one? I thought Miyu-chan and the others had already gone, even though you guys always seem to be together."

Naoki Sakurako was somewhat surprised.

"We've spent the night together before, but it was at Mika's house. As for my own place, Sakura-senpai was the first friend I knew to come over."

"Then I am truly honored. Yes, Nana-chan's first time is mine!"

"Cough cough cough!" Miyamoto almost choked on his words: "That's incredibly misleading!"

"Oh? Is there anything misleading about this?" Naoki Sakurako said, leaning closer. "Then I'll change it. Nana-chan's first time in the house is mine!"

"senior……"

"Alright, alright, I'm not kidding anymore." Naoki Sakurako smiled, then became serious: "What you were doing just now, actually, could be considered a kind of variety show sense!"

Miyamoto immediately realized what had happened. He fell silent, carefully considering the other person's actions.

If I were in the audience, what would I think of this scene?

Sakura-senpai and I are both women, and there are various rumors about us. This combination will definitely create a big impact. In addition, my own reaction will just be a source of laughter for the audience.

Attracting the audience's attention and drawing their focus to your show is similar to performing on stage in some ways. However, while theater performances primarily involve dancing and singing, variety shows require other skills.

If a television program cannot attract viewers through its language and actions, especially its language, then it is practically a failure.

If it were me, what should I have done?

If I were standing on stage with Sakura-senpai, what would I say to accompany the performance?

"Senior, if you say that, then you need to take responsibility for me!"

"Eh?! No, I belong to everyone! No, everyone belongs to me!" Naoki Sakurako immediately shouted, then laughed.

"Good reaction. I was just thinking about how I should have reacted?"

"Yes, after my senior said that this is also a kind of variety show sense, I've been thinking about how to deal with it." Miyamoto nodded.

The two were on the train, not yet home. Naoki Sakurako sat down and said, "But you've only just developed this awareness. You're not good enough to reach a certain level right now. It's meaningless if you can't make most people laugh."

"Does it make most people laugh?"

"What? You don't actually want everyone to laugh, do you? That's very difficult, just like trying to make everyone your fan," Naoki Sakurako said.

Miyamoto thought for a moment: "It's difficult, but I want to give it a try, even if I might not succeed."

"So, the goal is to make everyone laugh?"

"Yes, make it our target!"

Naoki Sakurako looked at Miyamoto Nana, the girl she had admired from the very beginning.

She certainly didn't disappoint me. In just two short years, she went from being a graduate student to becoming one of the most popular contestants, and even became the sixteenth-ranked idol in the general election. Not only that, she also carved out her own path in the film industry.

Naoki Sakurako also wants to forge her own path as an actress, but it seems that this junior has started down this path earlier than she has.

“I used to think about having you join Team K, but now it seems impossible…” Naoki Sakurako suddenly said.

Miyamoto was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Yes..."

“Team S already needs to bring Hikari over to act as their face. If you complete your concurrent role later, they will definitely let you go to Team S.” Naoki Sakurako said slowly, “As for Team R, Hikari will also return to the place that belongs to her.”

Miyamoto looked at Naoki Sakurako with some surprise, only to see her smile at him: "I can tell that Mika-chan's goal is not to become an idol. If it were for her goal, she would definitely choose to leave within a year or two. At that time, SKR will need you and Hikari-chan to support it."

"What about Team K?" Miyamoto asked.
