Little Monkey

  Can't we pay the bill with business cards?

  "Hey, you two get up quickly, this isn't a lovers' hotel!" An Yuan saw Yu Guo standing at the door with a stunned expression and hastily got up, pulling up Xiao Lin first.

  Wow, what a huge force! Yu Guo exclaimed in his heart.

  Kobayashi Yu's height is 168, although this glasses brother is also very tall, looks like over 1.8 meters, but still can't use one arm to grab people like a small chicken.

  "Hey, Sugita, you're not young anymore, so please pick up your dignity." Ono said with a smile on his face, but when he saw Yuka at the door, his smile immediately disappeared.

  "Hey Ono-senpai, if I'm not mistaken, you're older than me..." Sugita said, supporting Nakamura's knee as he got up from the ground.

  "Ah, roasted beef tongue is here." Ono lowered his voice and interrupted Sugita's words in a very sensual way.

  "Excuse me." Yu Guo finally came back to her senses, carrying a tray of food and walking over to the long table.

  He crouched down and arranged the dishes one by one, "Roasted beef tongue, salmon salad, and various roasted meats, please enjoy slowly. The remaining dishes will be ready soon, please wait for a moment, guests."

  "Hey, wait a minute."

  Yu Guo stood up, put away the dinner plate and was about to leave when she was called back. She could tell that the voice belonged to Queen Han. That middle-aged man who looked very quiet, what was his name again, Ishida?

  "Would you like to add any other dishes?" Yu Guo looked at Ishida, who had picked up the menu, but slowly turned it over and faced it towards her.

  "Read it out loud, your store's introduction." Ishida said softly, he had almost handed the menu to Yuka.

  Although she didn't understand why, Yūka still took the menu from him. In the several months she had been working there, she would occasionally encounter some strange customers, but as long as they weren't being a nuisance or anything, she generally wouldn't refuse them. She was too much of a pushover and couldn't bring herself to say no.

  "Tsuki no Sakura Izakaya, which has been in business since 1969. Originally a small sake bar, it has evolved over time into..."

  Yuuka held the menu and began to read it out loud, one word at a time. Although what she was reading wasn't a famous work or any beautiful phrases, Yuuka still read with great care, enunciating each word clearly in her mid-range voice that had just a hint of nasal tone.

  Ishida listened while turning his eyes towards Sugita, "I heard that your agency is going to hold a training class for new voice actors recently?"

  "Hey, Ishida-senpai, you just said that newcomers in this industry don't get to eat their fill, but now you've changed your tune?" Sugita was somewhat perplexed. The girl's voice was indeed special, but that didn't necessarily mean she could make it big in the industry. Moreover, the company's goal this time wasn't actually to promote voice actors, but rather to break into the idol market. For someone like him who had worked hard to get where he was, he couldn't help but look down on her a bit.

  Can't even come up with a second AK-47, what's the point of messing around!

  The introduction was brief and Yuuko quickly finished reading it, but she didn't pay attention to the conversation between Ishida and Sugita.

  "Thank you." Ishida nodded at Yuka and then fell silent, hanging his head.

  As for this inexplicable interlude, Yuka didn't pay much attention to it either. She picked up the dinner plate and returned to the kitchen.

  "Shiina-senpai, do you really want to take on an apprentice?" Kobayashi asked curiously after the door to the private room had closed. She was a chatterbox and couldn't keep it in if she didn't say something, or else she'd feel suffocated.

  "Not really, I just heard a pleasant sound and wanted to linger for a bit." Ishida said calmly.

  "Uh..." Kobayashi's numerous words were suddenly choked back, she hugged the teacup in front of her and took several big gulps.

  "I knew it, Shida wouldn't just drag a young girl into the fire pit." Kamotani picked up a string of roasted beef tongue and started eating directly.

  "How is it a fire pit? The girl's voice condition is also good, and her appearance and figure are not bad at all. As long as the agency is willing to spend money to support her, she will definitely become popular." Nakamura made this extremely professional comment, glancing at Sugita Michiko, "Isn't your Monkey Production company trying to promote this beautiful young voice actress combination recently?"

  "That's what I'm saying, but do you think our firm can find a group of 1.7-meter-tall mezzo-soprano girls?" Sugita shook his head, thinking that only Seki Tomokazu would be excited about such a thing. A group of cute juniors and all that, just thinking about it gives him the feels.

  "Then find one that's 1.4 to 1.7 meters, arranged in a stepped shape, it's more spectacular." Ono also chimed in, his hands still drawing undulating curves.

  "Haha......"

  Kobayashi and Yūki simultaneously laughed out in silence, a feeling of being inexplicably shot, probably like that.

  That group of people is quite strange, but it doesn't feel bad. Yūka brought the finished noodles from the kitchen and returned to that private room again.

  "Buckwheat noodles." Yu Guo picked up the lightest buckwheat noodle dish, she looked around and forgot who ordered it.

  "Wig, your buckwheat noodles." Sugita lowered his voice and started acting. He took the noodles from Yuka's hand and handed them to Ishida.

  "Huh? Are you referring to Jirosen?" Lin raised an eyebrow and asked Yuka with a tilted head.

  "Which Yuzuru?" Yūka's history was her strong point, and she immediately remembered who it was. "The wife of Katsura Kotarō, Yuuzuru Geiko?"

  "It's not Katsura Kotarou, it's Katsura Kotarou." Sugita corrected.

  "It's not a wig, it's a laurel." Ishida said with a straight face, for some reason, following this group of people, his image would completely collapse.

  "It's not a wig, it's Kotaro." Yuka was confident in her own memory, but she was completely led astray by these two people. What came out of her mouth was completely different from what she thought in her mind.

  "Hahaha!" Little Lin couldn't hold back and burst out laughing. She hugged An Yuan's arm, wiping away the tears that came from her laughter.

  Yu Guo bit her lower lip, feeling a little frightened. She didn't know what she had said wrong, but it caused everyone present to have constipated expressions.

  "It's okay, don't mind them." An Yuan was indeed the kindest one, he waved his hand at You Guo, telling her not to take it to heart.

  "Sorry." Youguo apologized and completely forgot that she still had a bowl of ramen in her hand, quickly turned around and was about to run.

  "Huh, my char siu!" Nakamura stretched out his hand, but he was sitting in the middle and couldn't stop Yuka from leaving.

  "Isn't your char siu in your belly, Nakamura-senpai? Hahahaha!" Kobayashi burst out laughing again.

  Hearing the loud laughter behind her, Yuuka ran even faster with Nakamura's takoyaki.

  "What's wrong, Quan Shui? Has that weirdo been bothering you again?" The shop owner asked with a frown as he saw You Guo rush in panting, still holding the ramen she had just taken out.

  "There are weirdos... " Youguo explained, panting, the store owner has a bad temper, she didn't want the store owner to go beat up customers again, "But they didn't harass me."

  "What are you running for?" The shopkeeper understood that Yuka's personality was soft and immediately started rolling up his sleeves.

  "Really." Yu Guo hastily stretched out his hand and pulled down the store owner's sleeve, "If you think saying some inexplicable things is harassment, then maybe it is..."

  "Oh, I see." The store owner struck his palm with a look of sudden realization, "Is it those otaku guys?"

  "Otaku?" Yuka blinked, her family had one at home, so she knew a thing or two about it. And this store wasn't too far from Akihabara either, "But their age, seems to be a bit over the top..."

  "Spring water, you don't understand this. A house has no age limit. I accompanied my granddaughter to watch Pretty Cure and was even attracted to it." The store owner's expression suddenly became gentle, as if a hint of blush appeared.

  Yu Guo's mouth twitched slightly as she glanced at the store owner's white hair, and indeed still had some reservations, "I, I'll go get the dishes."

  Perhaps because of what happened earlier, this group of people didn't tease Youguo again. Two hours later, they settled the bill and prepared to leave.

  "It's a total of 22,000 yen, thank you." Yuka placed the bill in the center of the dining table, and she really couldn't tell which one was the rich guy who would pay.

  "Who has a business card?" Ishida stretched out his hand and took over the bill.

  "Business cards?" Everyone present flipped through their bags, but they were from different law firms and the business cards they pulled out were all different.

  Among that pile of colorful business cards, Yuka immediately spotted the cream-colored one that Sugita had pulled out.

  Isn't this what that uncle gave me on the tram before?

  "Atomic Ape Voice Actor Agency"

  Ishida noticed Yuka's gaze and took the business card from Sugita's hand, handing it to Yuka. "If you're interested, take a look."

  "Thank you." Yoko didn't decline, and Mr. Ishida looked more reliable than the one on the train. She also couldn't refuse the guest's business card, so she took it with both hands.

  "This time I'll get it." Ishida took out his wallet and paid the bill.

  "I said I'd treat you." Sugita blocked Ishida's movement and directly pulled out three thousand-yen bills from his pocket.

  Youguo quickly took over, she knew that to end this dispute, the shop assistant had to cut through the chaos, "Thank you, please take care of your belongings, welcome next time."

  The author has something to say: The leader's law firm is a monkey, I changed it to an orangutan, hahaha.

  And AKB48 and all that, everyone understands, it's fine
