Chapter Fourteen: The Singing Star
Silently picked up the phone, a strange phone number, except for the first three digits, all zeros, feeling only a huge sense of eeriness, a non-existent phone number.
"Hello?"
"Kaiyan, agree with him and become a star."
The voice on the other end of the phone was a sound that made me almost forget and tremble, God's voice... Immersed in sudden happiness, I almost forgot that I still had my own price to pay...
"Is that an order?" I said respectfully, my fate entirely in his hands. All I wanted to do was free my brother from the fate of harm, even if I was no longer Yuuki.
"This is your first task, becoming a star won't be difficult for you."
Looking down at the ground, do I have to show my face in public?... I don't want to cause trouble for my daily life, and... it's scary under many people's gaze. "I understand, can I ask for one thing?"
He whispered to him my thoughts and concerns, he agreed to my request, only letting me hand over the phone to the strange uncle who was smiling in front of me.
"Give you your phone." Hand over the exquisitely crafted mobile phone in your hand to that strange uncle, but fortunately he is only dressed strangely and doesn't think about things like a madman, suddenly pouncing over.
"Oh? For me? Thank you, little sister~" The strange uncle took the phone from my hand and started chatting with the old man on the other end. His expression looked somewhat serious, but it seemed like they were getting along well.
"Little sister, your grandfather has already agreed to let you be a star." The strange uncle nodded at me and handed my phone back, also ruffling my hair as he squatted down.
I gave him a disdainful look, but grandpa? That god actually dared to impersonate as the guardian of someone like me...
"But he wants you to wear a mask every time you go on stage, and only then will he agree to let you join our company as an artist."
"Alright, I understand." Nodding, wearing a mask can somewhat disguise my identity, but my popularity will probably take a hit.
"So, welcome to becoming an official artist of LME Agency, I am the president Luo Libao Tian." He squatted down and rubbed my head again, just like before, making me feel a bit dissatisfied and wanting to fiercely step on his exposed toes in his grass shoes. "Nowadays kids are all so precocious, just like when I first met Lin... but at that time Lin was already considered a young adult."
He muttered something to himself and then asked me my name "So, little sister ~ what's your name?"
"Kurenai, Kuroba no Kurenai." He told him his name obediently.
"I'll go to LME tomorrow, goodbye." He bowed politely and slowly walked away from him.
"En." The strange uncle looked at the distant figure of the little girl, and the smile on his mouth slowly disappeared, replaced by a serious and oppressive expression like an emperor. That girl, her future may be beyond my estimation, and even I couldn't predict it. Pulling her into this path would also be approved by Ailian. Let's let them meet tomorrow, which will also help Ailian.
I don't want to continue talking to this weird uncle, because I saw my brother. Under the tree shade not far from me, his brown hair fluttered in the gentle breeze, and his gaze was fixed on me. Is he looking for me?
"Kurenai, who was that man just now?" I looked up at him and he hesitated for a moment before slowly stroking my hair. I didn't mind when onii-chan touched my head, even if it made me feel shorter.
"He is the president of LME and he wants me to be a star." I reported truthfully to him, but my brother's expression didn't change at all, just a slight frown, my brother was unhappy.
"Did you promise him?"
"Really, aren't you happy?"
"...Nothing." Akira slowly lowered his eyes, crouched down and brought his lips close to that slender white neck, below which were the sharp fangs that tore apart all prey. The wind blew through his brown hair, hitting his face, he closed his eyes, lifted his head and whispered into her ear "If you give me chocolate on St. Chocolate Day..."
