Chapter 441 Young sensation

As the program wrapped up, Suzuki turned to Hiro with a smile.

“Thank you for joining us today, Hiro. You’ve not only entertained us but also inspired many young athletes out there,” he said.

A humble smile adorned Hiro’s face as he bowed his head slightly, “Thank you for having me. I enjoyed being on the show.”

Although in the beginning, he felt quite nervous, now as the show came to an end, he felt thankful for the invitation. He had nothing but gratitude to the staff.

From the beginning, they had been nothing but welcoming.

So, he bowed his as he said his thanks to the staff members for their hospitality. Before wrapping, he also thanked the audience and the viewers for their love and support.

“Thank you everyone for the support you have blessed me. I’ll forever be grateful for your support,” Hiro deeply bowed his head as he said his thanks to the audience and the viewer.

As he said his thanks, he thought of the national team, the Asia Cup, and the challenges that lay ahead of him.

Though he had managed to overcome one such challenge, his true test was yet to begin. And, he was well aware of the difficulty he had to face to overcome it.

Finally, the show came to an end. As for the reward for the event back then, the winner was promised a front-row seat for Hiro’s next game, as well as an opportunity to tour the stadium and spend a day with the players.

After the show, as Hiro was getting ready to leave, one of the staff girls who had greeted him earlier approached him shyly.

She was petite with a lively expression while her eyes were sparkling with excitement.

“Mr. Takahashi, I’m a huge fan,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “I was wondering if… maybe I could get a photo with you?”

As she asked for a photo, Hiro was reminded of his new reality. He was no longer just a promising young player, but he was becoming more of a public figure, a role model.

His stardom had risen significantly after his debut. And so did his reputation stat. If it continued then it was only a matter of time before the world took notice of him.

The prejudice regarding Asian players had already started to wane due to the collective effort of world-class Asian players. So, if he continued to deliver, then the big move he had dreamed of since his past life, it’d no longer remain a dream. 𝑓𝘳𝔀𝑜𝓋.𝘤𝘰

Hiro smiled warmly, “Of course.”

It wasn’t a big deal for him. And, he was in no rush to head home. Though he was a little tired due to the day’s events, he had no other plans.

And the day was still far from over.

They then took a picture together. The girl beamed with joy as she took some pictures with him. She was way older than him, probably in her early twenties. But her joy was like that of a child after getting their favorite toy.

The joy on her face warmed his heart.

She was quick enough to post the photo on her social media, captioning it with excitement and pride, “Met the young sensation today! Takahashi Hiro is just as amazing in person as he is on the field, humble and handsome.”

Hiro was quite mesmerized by her typing speed.

‘She must be one of those keyboard warriors’ he thought as he looked at her.

Just then Ayumi walked inside. She had been away to handle some formalities. So, he was waiting for her.

“So, I can go home right?” Hiro asked.

He hadn’t been informed about any other activity. So, it was only natural for him to head home.

“Actually…,” uncertainty flashed in her eyes as she made a rather distressful expression.

It was as if she hadn’t informed him of something very crucial. Or she had made some last-minute changes without consulting him.

Well, he did provide her the liberty to operate on her own. But still, it’d have been better if she asked him before making further changes.

“They have asked us to join them for the dinner,” Ayumi spoke meekly.

A sharp contrast to her usual confident demeanor, right now she appeared as if she had made some huge blunder.

Well, it wasn’t a big deal. And neither was it a taxing request.

But still, it’d have been better if she had consulted with him first before accepting the proposal. He knew that she had already accepted the proposal. Though, she hadn’t mentioned it. He could tell based on her expression.

If she had been here to consult, she wouldn’t have appeared so nervous.

Even so, he was hungry. So, he didn’t feel like making it an issue.

“Thank god! I was starving,” Hiro said sounding rather grateful.

As she heard him, her face lightened up. Her eyes glimmered with relief, while a crescent-like smile adorned her beautiful face.

Until now, she had been nothing but perfect. She hadn’t made any errors and had carried out her responsibilities superbly. But even so, she was only a human.

There were bound to be moments when she messed up.

However, as he thought of her actions, he felt a bit uneasy. An unsettling feeling gnawed at him as he tried to figure out her action.

It was not like her. Maybe there’s some other motive for accepting the invitation. Sure, she wouldn’t have agreed to it because she was craving food.

But later as they got to the dinner, everything became clear to him.

The reason why she had accepted the invitation without even consulting with him was all because of an individual. The individual with the highest authority. It was the president of the media company that owned the show he had been part of.

As ambitious as she was, she probably wanted to make use of this opportunity to build some ties with the powerful man.

Her motive became as crystal clear as water.
