My fiancée Yukino

"What about my dad?"

Artoria smiled and said, "Uncle went to see Yukino Haruno's father. It seems he wanted to discuss the company's investment in building a factory in Chiba Prefecture."

Because of the relationship between the two families, the Luo family recently planned to invest more in Chiba, which would also help their in-laws generate some revenue, and they would actually make a profit, making it a win-win situation.

"That's it, I know."

I don't need to worry about most of the business in my family's company yet. I'll take over after I graduate from university. For now, I just need to check the company's development plan periodically.

On the other side of the band, Kita Ikuyo told Nijika and Ryo about what she had heard from Luo Bai and Xiao Ai at noon.

After hearing this, the two immediately ran over to Luo Bai.

"Senior, can you really give us a new song?"

Looking into Hongxia's bright eyes, Luo Bai smiled and nodded: "Of course, I already have some ideas. If you don't believe me, Little Lonely, lend me your guitar."

"it is good!"

Although it was his own precious guitar, Little Lonely still handed it over to Luo Bai without hesitation.

Holding the guitar, Luo Bai thought for a moment and then began to play.

Although it wasn't written on sheet music yet, Luo Bai had a general idea of ​​what to do. After making two mistakes at the beginning, Luo Bai finally managed to play it smoothly.

Listening to Luo Bai's music, Liang said in a low voice, "It is indeed a new piece, and I didn't expect his skill level to improve so quickly."

Little Lonely looked at Luo Bai in surprise, as well as at his own guitar playing the tune that Luo Bai was playing.

Soon, the short piece of music was finished.

Luo Bai returned the guitar to Xiao Gudu and said with a smile, "That's all for now. Since it's just a guitar solo, the effect will be a bit lacking. It will be better when I finish the arrangement and the four of you in the band play it together. This song will be more powerful, so Xiduo, you need to practice more. Also, Liang, who is in harmony, you should go to vocal lessons this weekend."

"Me? I see."

Liang did not refuse. As a harmonist in the band, he did need to improve his vocal skills.

As for Little Lonely, who is the lead guitarist, there's no need to expect her to sing along; all she has to do is bring out the best in herself.

Clap his hands and Luo Bai said, "Alright, my songs will take a while to finish. You guys should focus on getting your new songs sorted out first. This is crucial for getting a contract soon, so keep up the good work."

The four girls nodded in unison, deciding to practice the song twice before the band performing that day arrived, and then discuss the new song.

As music began to play on stage, Ijichi Hoshika approached Luo Bai from below and said softly, "Thank you so much for preparing a song for them."

Luo Bai smiled and said, "They're four very hardworking people, aren't they? I have high hopes for them. I'm sure they'll get a contract in the future and become Xiao Ai's fans. That would be a gift from me too. Xing Ge, what about you? I heard from Hong Xia that you used to play in a band, but you gave it up for various reasons and then started STARRY. When their band is formed, would you like to be their manager?"

Xiao Ai realized this too: "Oh right, we still need a manager! Although I could have my manager work part-time, I feel that Sister Xingge is more suitable. She can be strict when necessary, and since she's Hongxia's older sister, she'll definitely assist them seriously."

The two's words made Xingge somewhat interested. After all, it was her sister's band. Although the management company she was to sign with was Hoshino Ai's, besides the management company, she would definitely have to deal with some things in the industry in the future.

At least for the first period of time, I should help out more.

After thinking for a moment, Xingge said, "Let me think about it some more, since I don't have any experience in this area."

Hoshino Ai happily said, "That's no problem. Our company has a training program for managers. If you'd like, Hoshino-neechan, you can attend. It's not that difficult. With our company's strength, as long as they have enough ability, Hongxia and the others will definitely have good resources in the future, and no one in the industry will dare to bully them! You just need to be responsible for their daily practice and work arrangements when they go out, etc."

"Now that you mention it, it is indeed quite simple."

Seeing that there were training courses available, Xingge felt relieved.

"Okay, then I'll go take some classes when they're almost ready to sign contracts. There's no rush now. Also, don't tell any of them about this."

"No problem, we'll keep it a secret."

After finishing their conversation, everyone continued watching the Bond Band's practice.

After taking two fries from Mordred's side and putting them in his mouth, Luo Bai said, "Little Mo, what do you think of the Bond Band?"

The music coming from the stage also captivated Mordred, making her sway her body with great enthusiasm.

"Hmm, that's pretty good. I didn't expect their band to be so talented, and their songs are quite catchy! Did they even write them themselves?"

"Yes, I wrote it myself. I'm writing a second one now. I plan to develop into a creative band."

Besides gaming, Mordred has also been into music these past few days, and praised, "Not bad, looks like you have a bright future ahead of you."

Luo Bai nodded: "Indeed, they have a bright future. However, for a creative band, their creative abilities are also required. They will definitely need to keep learning and improving themselves in the future."

As he spoke, Luo Bai also looked at the lonely figure on the stage.

As the band's lyricist, she definitely needs to improve herself, otherwise she will eventually run out of inspiration.

Volume 1: Chapter 691 Eriri's Live Broadcast (3/3)

As Luo Bai looked at the stage, Xiao Gudu, who was intently playing the guitar, looked up and met Luo Bai's gaze. He felt a sudden panic.

Fortunately, she had practiced this song countless times in private, and although she was a little flustered, there were no problems.

Although the performance was fine, Luo Bai still noticed the changes in Xiao Gudu's expression.

With a slight smile, Luo Bai noticed the faint blush on Xiao Gudu's face.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't be shy about playing in front of acquaintances anymore, so it's a bit interesting that she's still like this.

Considering the girl's feelings, Luo Bai also

They stopped watching and instead focused on Kita Ikuyo, the lead singer, and started discussing it with Ai.

"When I take her to class later, I ask the vocal teacher to give her more practice. I feel that she should be quite suitable for different styles."

Xiao Ai agreed, saying, "Yeah, I've noticed that too. Her singing voice is a bit different from usual now. It really suits different styles."

After practicing three times, the four members of Hongxia came down and sat together to discuss the new song. They also brought Xiao Ai and Luo Bai over to help with their suggestions.

Luo Bai stayed at STARRY until four o'clock before saying goodbye to the girls and driving home.

Luo's parents had already returned and were chatting in the living room.

Lizzie and Sera were busy in the kitchen. After learning a few household spells, preparing dinner for so many people was not a difficult task for them. They simply kept Mrs. Lo, who wanted to help, in the living room.

Seeing Luo Bai and the others return, Luo's mother said with a smile, "After seeing this, I'm even tempted to learn this magic myself."

After Luo Bai sat down, he said, "It's very simple. I have some basic introductory magic books here. Mom, if you want to learn, you can take them home and read them. I'll ask Lucoa to get some potions that can cultivate magic power. I don't expect you to become very powerful, but at least you'll be able to master some simple spells."

If his mother wants to learn, Luo Bai will definitely help her.

After his mother agreed, Luo Bai immediately took out his phone and called Lucoa to explain his purpose.

Lucoa naturally wouldn't refuse such a small matter and readily agreed, explaining that she would deliver the potion as soon as possible.

After thanking her and saying he would treat Lucoa to a big meal at his home tomorrow, Luo Bai put down his phone and looked at his mother, saying, "It's all settled. Lucoa will be over tomorrow morning, and you'll get a share too, Dad. Even though work is busy, try to make time to study. Mastering magic can slow down aging and make your body healthier and more energetic."

Mr. Luo did not refuse and nodded with a smile.

They didn't care about strength, but what Luo Bai said about improving physical fitness and delaying aging was very attractive, and much more interesting than ordinary fitness.

After dinner, Luo Bai and Shi Yu went to Mordred's room together. Tonight was Eriri's first live broadcast as Kashiwagi Eri, so naturally they wanted to watch it closely.

Eriri originally planned to bring Shiho to her live stream to increase her popularity, but unfortunately, Luo Bai's parents came, and Shiho would definitely be going to Chiba on the weekend.

With no other option, Eriri had to do the live stream by herself.

Fortunately, I've already made arrangements with Mordred. Tomorrow, Saturday, is Mordred's first broadcast, so the two of us can play together.

Mordred's computer was already on, and she logged directly into Eriri's live stream.

As a popular illustrator and rising star manga artist, Eri Kashiwagi naturally has many readers and fans. This first live stream, with the help of Jump to promote it, naturally generated a lot of buzz.

It's still about twenty minutes until it starts, and more than seven hundred viewers have already gathered in the live stream room waiting.

Seeing the number of viewers, Mordred exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! So many people! I didn't expect Eriri to be so popular. Speaking of which, are the people watching the live stream today fans of her manga or her doujinshi?"

After learning about Eriri's past as a doujinshi artist, Mordred, driven by curiosity, went to examine some of Eriri's doujinshi and found them very insightful.

Luo Bai laughed and said, "I didn't know that. Eriri has completely severed ties with her past identity as Kashiwagi Eri. She claims to be the second generation of Kashiwagi Eri, a disciple of the first generation. But most fans probably don't believe that. They're just too lazy to refute it. They know it themselves. But right now, she definitely has more fans from the manga, and many of them are former fans who have switched careers. There are also quite a few examples of doujinshi artists who have gone on to become mainstream fans."

Utaha affirmed, "That's right. As long as we don't bring up the past, it's fine. When I was chatting with Eriri, I reminded her that if any fans bring up the doujinshi artist Kashiwagi Eri, we should just ignore it and not let it disrupt our own rhythm."

Although Shiwa herself wouldn't participate in Eriri's live stream, they were still friends, so she looked into the matter of online live streaming and gave Eriri some advice.

Given Eriri's tendency to mess things up, there are many things she probably can't understand on her own. The fact that she was able to prepare for the live stream must have been thanks to the help of her mother, Sayuri.

And the facts were pretty much as Shiyu had guessed. At that moment, in Eriri's room, her mother, Sayuri Sawamura, was talking to Eriri about some important matters concerning the live stream.

Sawamura Sayuri spoke for almost ten minutes before finally stopping.

"You've remembered them all, Eriri?"

Eriri nodded seriously, clenched her little fist, and said, "I've memorized it all, and I've practiced it several times, so there won't be any problems!"

Soon, it was 8 PM, and Eriri started her live stream on time.

Before the broadcast, Eriri took great care of her appearance, and a lively and beautiful blonde girl appeared in front of the camera, immediately attracting the attention of countless viewers.

After a slightly nervous self-introduction and a few minutes of chatting, Eriri began the first part of today's live stream: drawing.

Although I really want to play games, as a professional comic artist, since I'm doing a live stream, drawing is definitely a part of it, and it can also be used as a giveaway gift for the viewers.

Eriri is drawing Nezuko from Demon Slayer today. While drawing, Eriri also looks at the comment section and answers some of the viewers' questions, mainly about the manga and the game.

"Ah, as for the manga, the plot will definitely continue with the usual battles, and the enemies that come later will be unexpected. Please look forward to it."

As soon as Eriri finished answering a question, she saw a message on the screen offering 10,000 yen.

Xia Shizi: [The live stream is going well, we're watching!]

Despite the message being for 10,000 yen, Eriri still said angrily, "You jerk, I asked you to come and help but you didn't, you just stood there watching, didn't you!"

Volume 1: Chapter 692 A Successful Live Broadcast (1/3)

Seeing Eriri's angry expression in the live stream, Shiyu laughed happily.

Then he posted another message with 10,000 yen.

Xia Shizi: [Just kidding, keep drawing! I ordered you some milk tea, remember to pick it up later.]

Eriri paused for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction: "Hmph, that's more like it. Thanks for the message and milk tea, Shizuko-sensei. I'll keep drawing!"

The live stream became even more lively because of Shiyu's comments.

After sending two messages, Shiyu stopped leaving messages. She did indeed order milk tea for Eriri, not only for Eriri but also for Sawamura Sayuri, and then sent a message to Sawamura Sayuri as well.

Eriri was live-streaming, but in the end, it was Sayuri Sawamura who had to get the items.

After finishing the drawing, the milk tea that Shiyu had sent arrived. Eriri went out to get it and then happily drank the milk tea while playing games.

After becoming a professional manga artist, Eriri...

I have too much time to play games.

However, she has now basically adapted to the work of a cartoonist, and her drawing speed and efficiency have improved, so she can now squeeze out some time each week to stream and play games.

The first live stream lasted a good amount of time, starting at 8 p.m. and ending at 12:30 a.m., a total of 4.5 hours. The number of viewers in Eriri's live stream room increased steadily from the initial 700 to nearly 3000 by the end of the live stream.

This is an incredibly impressive number for someone doing a live stream for the first time.

Of course, Eriri's own fame and resources from Jump also played a role, but maintaining her popularity is also Eriri's own skill.

As a comic artist, her drawing skills are not only lacking, but as a seasoned otaku, she also spends a lot of time playing games and is familiar with almost all types of games, which she can talk about during her live streams.

Luo Bai and his two companions watched Eriri's live stream from beginning to end.

After the live stream ended, Eriri also called Shiho.

Turning on speakerphone, Shiyu said with a smile, "Congratulations, Eriri! Your first live stream was a great success. You must have made a lot of money, right?"

Eriri said nonchalantly, "I'm not short of money. I just thought the live stream would be fun. Now it seems it's actually quite interesting, but it's been more than four hours straight, so tiring."

Sitting next to Shi Yu, Luo Bai said, "Then you can reduce your live stream time a bit. Stream for one or two hours on weekdays, and stream a little longer on weekends or holidays. After all, you still have to go to school."

"Oh? Luo Jun, you're here too?"

Upon hearing Luo Bai's voice, Eriri's tone immediately became flustered.

Luo Bai said with a smile, "Yes, Shi Yu, Mordred, and I watched it from beginning to end. Mai and Yukino also came to watch for a while in the middle."

Mordred also said, "There are a lot of spectators. You've shown your face in person, so you'd better be prepared for the exposure at school!"

Eriri said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. I've already been on Jump's live stream, so I already know what I need to know. As for what I don't know, even if I keep streaming, I won't bother to find out. Anyway, I've toughened up my skin now, and the voices of those around me don't bother me!"

Just as Eriri herself said, she no longer cares about the opinions and discussions of those around her.

In the past, because of my identity as a fan artist, I might have needed to be more careful, but now that I am a real comic artist, things are completely different.
