The Popular Beautiful Idol, Who Suddenly Announced Her Secret Love Relationship and Retired, Is My Girlfriend - Chapter 40 - Summoned

Chapter 40 – Summoned

“Um, why were we summoned here?”

“……”

A month later, we made a set-up to start doing Youtube, and started shooting, editing, and posting videos.

…I’m glad we did, but…

“What’s with that video? Do you want to get killed?”

A few hours after posting, as I expected, we received an email from Futaba’s former agency to “Futaba Channel”.

The content was straightforward, “Come to the office tomorrow to explain the situation. If you don’t, we’ll sue you and socially destroy you.” 

Seeing the document, Futaba turned pale. I, on the other hand, sighed, anticipating the trouble.

That brings us to the present.

I’ll be honest. Futaba isn’t that bright.

This situation is a disaster, and the air is tense.

It’s not just Futaba who got called, even I was summoned under the pretext of being a staff member for the channel.

In front of us are the president of the agency and Futaba’s former manager. 

I really want to escape this situation right now.

Moreover, the president and the former manager know that I’m Futaba’s boyfriend.

This was revealed when, in a panicked state, Futaba replied to the email yesterday, unnecessarily stating, ‘My boyfriend/manager will accompany me. Could we discuss this together?’

She could’ve said I was her manager, but there was absolutely no need to use the word boyfriend.

In the end, Futaba is the one responsible for this mess.

I repeatedly advised her to be prepared for this.

I was thinking that this would happen sooner or later. Well, as expected, the development was so sudden that I was surprised too.

If we had planned properly and acted accordingly, this would never have happened.

“Now, let’s start from the beginning and hear your explanation.”

The president looked at us with a sharp gaze.

“Um, where should we start explaining?”

Futaba, who is receiving such a scrutinizing look, shrinks back timidly.

“Well, first of all, I’d like you to hear about the boyfriend and manager next to you. I’m most curious about that.”

“Ah~, yes. Understood.”

With that, both of their gazes immediately turned towards me.

“U-um, I’m Futaba’s boyfriend and channel manager, Kani Himeki. Thank you for your time today.”

For now, I’ll say my greetings.

At times like this, first impressions are important.

“Himeki-kun… was it? You seem reliable and like a good guy. Are you the same age as Futaba?”

“Yes. We are in the same class at the same high school.”

“I see.”

“And The President, you look quite young too… If you don’t mind me asking, could you tell us your age?”

There’s only one reason I’m asking this.

No matter how I look at it, she looks younger than us.

I can’t tell how tall she is because she’s sitting, but she’s smaller than the president’s chair. I think she’s about 150 cm or less.

She also has a baby-like face and bobbed black hair.

She looks like if she walks around town, she might get mistaken for an elementary or middle school student.
