I am a freeloader in the anime world

Mai Sakurajima suppressed her inner displeasure. Her gaze lingered on Su Yang for a moment, as if she was having a silent contest with him.

However, Mai Sakurajima did not let her emotions get out of control, but quickly diverted her attention.

Mai Sakurajima turned her gaze to the clock on the wall and glanced at the time.

So, Sakurajima Mai decisively picked up the TV remote control on the coffee table and turned on the TV skillfully. She adjusted the channels lightly with her fingers until the news channel appeared on the screen.

"I'm really sorry for disturbing you all this time!"

On the TV screen, Sakurajima Mai said the first sentence with a slightly shy expression and bowed.

"Is this 90-degree bow really okay?" Su Yang looked at Sakurajima Mai with some heartache and said, "Just do it casually. Bowing 90 degrees is not good for your waist."

As he spoke, Su Yang sat down next to Sakurajima Mai.

"Shut up right there. You haven't only been in Sakura Country for a few days. After such a long time, Yang Jun, don't you know that it is necessary to bow 90 degrees when apologizing in Sakura Country?"

Sakurajima Mai said this with obvious dissatisfaction in her tone. She suddenly turned her head, her eyes were as sharp as a knife, and then she pinched Su Yang's cheek hard.

Although Sakurajima Mai's action was abrupt, it also revealed the close relationship between her and Su Yang.

Su Yang's cheeks deformed slightly between Sakurajima Mai's fingers, and his expression changed from surprise to a helpless smile. This scene added a bit of humor and also revealed the subtle interaction and emotional bond between the two.

"..."

Feng Bang and Hua on the side rolled their eyes speechlessly at their sister and Su Yang.

On the small space of the TV screen, a tense and expectant atmosphere is unfolding.

The reporters who raised their hands to get the chance to speak, like warriors on the battlefield, asked sharp questions one after another.

The questions from these reporters all started with news photos circulating on the Internet and directly pointed to Mai Sakurajima's scandal.

Each question is like a carefully polished arrow, aiming at this one focus, trying to explore the depth of the truth.

After all, this was the first time that Mai Sakurajima was caught up in a vortex of scandal.

With the dual blessing of Sakurajima Mai's popularity and fame, this matter naturally became the focus of media and public attention.

Even though the scandal lasted only a day, all the entertainment news headlines were dominated by Sakurajima Mai's name, and her image and reputation became the center of discussion.

Moreover, this is the first time that Mai Sakurajima has stood in front of the camera since the news of her relationship was revealed.

On the TV screen, even if a corner of her is slightly caught in the frame, you can see countless cameras standing by. They are like the eyes of a cheetah, tightly locking onto Mai Sakurajima, capturing every subtle change in her expression and not missing any possible news clues.

At the same time, according to the news program host, many reporters were unable to enter the press conference due to venue restrictions.

They either anxiously wandered outside the venue or tried to obtain first-hand information through various channels. This desire for information and pursuit of news showed the media's high level of attention to this event.

Mai Sakurajima stood under the spotlight, facing wave after wave of questions. Her expression was calm and her answers were appropriate, demonstrating her professionalism as a public figure.

Because Mai Sakurajima is very clear that every word and every action of hers may become tomorrow's headlines and may affect her image and career.

So, in this situation, Mai Sakurajima responded to everyone's concerns.

"Are you really in a relationship?"

"Yes."

Mai Sakurajima on TV had a blush on her face and looked a little embarrassed, but she still looked bravely into the camera, her eyes revealing determination and sincerity.

"What kind of person is the other party?"

"He is a very handsome man, but he is a bit nervous."

Mai Sakurajima said this jokingly with a smile on her face, but her calmness didn't last long.

"Can I ask when you started dating?"

"About ten days ago!"

"Can you tell me what's in that photo?"

Mai Sakurajima explained at the press conference with a hint of shyness: "The action in the photo was because he teased me about how I drank water, so I got angry and grabbed his collar. It wasn't that I wanted to kiss him, it was just a misunderstanding."

There was a slight embarrassment in Mai Sakurajima's tone, but it also revealed her helplessness about the misunderstanding and her determination to clarify it.

Of course, this is Mai Sakurajima on TV.

In front of the TV, Mai Sakurajima's face was already cold, and her whole body exuded an unpleasant chill, causing Toyohama and Hana to distance themselves from her.

As for the reason why Sakurajima Mai had a cold expression, the three people present in the living room at this time knew it very well, because the "Sakurajima Mai" in the photo was not the real Sakurajima Mai, but Toyohama Kazuka who was dressed like "Sakurajima Mai".
