I became a girl group idol for my sister.

Seeing that he had been to Nanase Touka's house before, Miyamoto Sei said as he entered, "Excuse me."

"Please come in, senpai!" Nanase Touka called out cheerfully, though a hint of nervousness was hidden in her voice.

Miyamoto noticed the other's nervousness and became somewhat puzzled. Why was he nervous? Was it because of him? Or was it because it was just him and Nanase Touka at home that he was nervous?

But there's no need for that, right? We spent so much time together back then, shouldn't we have gotten used to it by now?

Although puzzled, Miyamoto didn't pay too much attention to it. He went inside and put the things in the refrigerator, while Nanase Touka said to him, "Senpai, why don't you go to my bedroom and play on the computer for a while?"

"Let's cook together."

"No! I'll do it today!" Nanase Touka immediately said, "I've been studying for a long time, and I'm determined to show my senior what I'm capable of today!"

Is she a little nervous because she wants me to try her cooking?

Miyamoto thought about it and couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright then." Nodding, Miyamoto went to the other person's bedroom. It was pretty much the same as before, with no major changes. He turned on the computer, casually opened a webpage, and started searching. He was a little curious about the online discussions about Nanase Touka's first solo performance.

Compared to that, games simply aren't that appealing.

[It's unbelievable that Fuyu-chan has grown to this extent!]

I'm so happy! I successfully snagged tickets to the performance. Being able to participate in this performance is the best thing ever for me!

[The feeling conveyed in Fuyuka-chan's song is absolutely genuine; she must have experienced something similar to be able to sing it so well! But she stood up strong, just like the lyrics say, rising under the guidance of light and continuing to move forward in pursuit of that light!]

I always thought the world was too dark and that life had no future, but because I met my idol and felt the power of my idol, I regained the courage to live!

Dongxia-chan's song is a complete reflection of my own experience. I felt despair because of the darkness, but the light rekindled my courage to live!

Trust me, this song will absolutely be a hit in Japan, no, it might even be a global phenomenon!

There have been a lot of discussions online. Miyamoto looked through them one by one and found that many of the comments were focused on the second song, the one called "Survivor".

Everyone faces pressure in life, even children. Everyone has their own pressures, and many people feel they can't bear them. This song expresses their inner feelings and gives them more strength.

Perhaps it is this resonance that made the song so popular the moment it was performed.

Miyamoto thought of many people, especially the girl who originally wanted to commit suicide, who had a little motivation because of her, and who, because of her support, had finally been able to live a normal life.

Miyamoto believes there must be many people like this who rely on spiritual support such as idols and anime series to give themselves motivation in life.

This song might be a shot in the arm, giving these people hope!

……

Nanase Touka looked at the clothes she had left in the bathroom.

It was a very sexy set of lingerie. She hesitated for a moment, then raised her hand and took the clothes off.

……

"Senior Nana..."

Nanase Touka's voice came from outside the door. Miyamoto Sei was startled and turned his head.

"What's the matter..."

Before he could finish speaking, Miyamoto's eyes widened. He finally understood why Nanase Touka was so nervous.

The other person was wearing an apron and was looking at him with a smile.

That wouldn't have been a problem in itself, but the important thing was that the other person wasn't wearing anything under their apron. Miyamoto was certain of that; they really weren't wearing anything!

"Senior, dinner is ready. Would you like to eat first?" She blinked, her lipstick-covered lips slightly parted, her tongue lightly tracing her lips, her voice alluring: "Or... should you eat me first?"

Even though she is very young, Nanase Touka believes that her charm is absolutely enough!

Miyamoto was silent for a moment, quickly figuring out what was going on, and then he got up and walked over.

Seeing Miyamoto approach, Nanase Touka became a little nervous. Her already wildly beating heart accelerated even more, making her feel both scared and expectant.

Then, a sharp pain shot through her head.

The other person tapped her on the head without any hesitation.

"Hey, hey, hey, is your brain fried? Or did something happen that caused you to skip work? Is Dongxia even thinking straight?"

"Senpai!" Nanase Touka immediately broke free from the other person's hand, looking at them with some dissatisfaction: "Is this all you can do?!"

Miyamoto shook his head: "No, and it can't be!"

Nanase Touka leaned closer again, gently stroking Miyamoto Sei's heart, feeling its pounding. She chuckled softly, "You can feel it now... That's fine, no one will know anyway..."

At that moment, the other person grabbed her shoulder and pulled her away.

"Absolutely not!"

The voice was low, but very firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Miyamoto stared at her, seeing the stubbornness and barely concealed nervousness in the girl's eyes, and he suddenly understood the meaning of what Amagai Risa had said.

Don't treat the other person like a child.

"Dongxia, to be honest, you are very cute and beautiful. If you were pursuing me like this when I was in school, I probably wouldn't be able to resist. But not now. I've already decided that I will not get involved in any romantic relationships until I graduate!"

Nanase Touka fell silent, while Miyamoto Se hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "If it were you now, the one standing on stage, performing alone in front of your fans, I think you would definitely be able to understand!"

Nanase Touka lowered her head, feeling a complete sense of relief. The pressure in her heart dissipated at that moment, as if nothing had happened, but something had been resolved.

She felt as if all her strength had been completely stripped away, and she almost collapsed.

She used the other person's body for support and recovered for a while before she smiled.

"Senpai Nana is really something. Even though he already has beautiful girls throwing themselves at him, he still insists on staying. I guess he's a virgin!"

"What does this have to do with being a virgin?!"

"That's what happens when you're connected, no wonder you'll be a virgin forever!" she said, pulling away from him, making a face at Miyamoto Sei, and then running off: "I'm going to change!"

Seeing that the other person ran away, and that their tone was relaxed and they didn't seem to be upset, Miyamoto Sei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I've seen girls' bodies quite a few times, facing this situation suddenly is still a bit too stimulating!

Perhaps he should discuss this with Tenberisa; he really doesn't have much experience in this area!

Chapter Fifty: Struggle and Liberation

Nanase Touka returned to the bathroom and immediately leaned against the wall, her limp body slowly sliding down. If she hadn't held onto the wall with her hands, she probably would have been sitting on the floor.

I should be heartbroken right now. I mustered up the courage to do this, and yet I was still rejected after confessing my feelings.

She has every reason to be sad.

But at this moment, apart from physical exhaustion, she felt a sense of relaxation.

She gently touched her chest, feeling her heart pounding; it was still so strong.

She took a deep breath, turned on the tap, and rinsed her hands with the cold water. Then she splashed the cold water on her cheeks, letting the cool water stimulate her skin.

Why am I so calm even though I failed?

Did you anticipate from the beginning that it was impossible to succeed?

Nanase Touka silently recalled her state of mind over the past few days. She was very worried every day, and her worries were getting worse. Even though she knew that Miyamoto Nana's performance in the TV series was fake, she was still worried so much that she couldn't sleep.

Looking at the other person's name on my phone makes my heart pound uncontrollably, as if I'm afraid of something.

It's a fear of losing what you have now, a desire to take things further, a desire to fully solidify the relationship, rather than standing still.

But I'm also afraid that if we make things clear, we might never be able to be together again, so I'm afraid to move forward.

This feeling of gain and loss constantly weighed on her nerves, keeping her in a state of constant tension.

Now that these things have been brought to light, she feels that the taut string in her heart is gone; whether it has loosened or snapped, it's simply gone.

Nanase Touka suddenly laughed, her laughter was very low, extremely low.

She let out a breath, patted her face to wipe the water off, and then put on her clothes.

She has bravely taken that step, and now that the result is in, she should accept it and move on!

"I am Nanase Fuyuka, a solo idol who can fill a venue with over a thousand people!" she murmured to herself.

……

When Nanase Touka came out of the living room, she found that Miyamoto Sei had already moved all the dishes to the table and was sitting there upright, looking like he had done something wrong.

Seeing this, Nanase Touka asked with some confusion, "Nana-senpai, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I was just waiting for you." Miyamoto shook his head, then looked at the girl carefully again. Seeing that her eyes weren't red, and confirming that she hadn't cried, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright, let's get ready to eat. I'm really looking forward to it, you know, Fuyuka's cooking!"

Nanase Touka cooks very common home-style dishes, but they taste really good, showing that she has worked hard to learn them.

After the two finished their meal, Miyamoto took the initiative to wash the dishes, since Nanase Fuyuka had cooked them.

Miyamoto was washing the dishes, while Nanase Touka sat on the sofa. She didn't turn on the TV; instead, she knelt on the sofa, supporting herself with her hands on the backrest, and just watched Miyamoto.

"Nana-senpai," Nanase Touka suddenly called out.

"What's wrong?" Miyamoto asked, setting aside the rinsed dishes with some confusion.

"I have some questions I'd like to ask you, senpai," Nanase Touka said with a smile, as if nothing had happened. "How much longer are you planning to stay at SKR, senpai?"

This question startled Miyamoto Sei slightly. He pondered for a moment, but found that he didn't have a definite answer to it either.
