A black business car drove into the parking lot of a high-end restaurant.
Nanaya and Shion got out of the car at the same time from both sides.
"You two, private room."
Shion walked into the restaurant with her man and spoke to the waiter naturally.
This is a very famous Michelin three-star Italian restaurant, and it is also where Shion and Nanaya will have dinner tonight.
"Please, ma'am, sir."
The waiter said politely.
The two of them quickly sat in the private room, facing each other.
Nanaya was very curious as it was his first time entering such a restaurant, and he looked around furtively.
"Nanaya, is this your first time in a place like this? I remember taking you to several similar restaurants in the United States, right?"
Shion rolled her eyes at her man and smiled helplessly.
"There are some differences between North America and Japan." Nanaya shrugged and said, "But I'm mostly just curious."
To be honest, although Michelin three-star restaurants are expensive, they are not outrageous.
Nanaya was more curious about the overly pretentious atmosphere of these restaurants.
"But Italian restaurants and the like... they feel very novel."
When Nanaya saw Shion looking at him and laughing, he lowered his head a little embarrassedly.
"Okay, that's an improvement over before."
Shion said so.
"I still remember how nervous you were when we first had dinner together. You are much better now than you were then."
Hearing Shion's answer, Nanaya's face flashed with embarrassment: "I am reserved not because I am having dinner with you, but because I am not unkempt, okay."
Shion covered her mouth and chuckled, "Well, I will never forget your almost savage look in my life."
"Master Shion, please be sure to forget that dark history."
Nanaya clasped his hands together and begged for mercy.
"Okay, let's talk about it when we go to bed tonight."
Shion's fingers gently stroked the back of Nanaya's hand.
Then, she continued, "Today is the first audition for those girls, right? How was the result?"
Nanaya, who was still savoring the movements of Shion's fingers, immediately straightened his face.
"It's pretty good overall, except for a few oddities."
Recalling the scene where Sakura asked to play the role of Kaname Shunko in front of her, Nanaya felt a dull pain in his stomach.
Although no matter from the character setting, Sakura already has the body of a married woman.
There is indeed no problem with her playing the role of Kaname Shunko.
But Nanaya dared to swear on the crystal glass chandelier on his forehead that Sakura wanted to play this role definitely because of Rin.
[How did she guess that I would want Rin to play Madoka? ]
Nanaya was puzzled.
In the film industry, it is not uncommon for actresses in their twenties to play the role of a 17 or 18-year-old girl.
In addition, the yellow race generally has the racial advantage of having younger faces, as well as the makeup skills of makeup artists.
Nanaya believes that there won't be any major problems with the selection and character design of Rin, who will play Kaname Madoka.
The only thing standing between Rin and the role of Kaname Madoka is Rin's acting skills.
This is something Rin needs to overcome on her own.
Nanaya still remembers that Rin's dream was to become a great actor.
Since she is a great actress, she must never let the roles she plays be stereotyped.
Nanaya believes that playing this role, which is completely different from Rin's previous image, is a good opportunity for her to hone her acting skills.
You have to know that Rin has always played the role of a tsundere woman in the Fate series, which can easily lead to her acting range becoming narrower and narrower.
Nanaya doesn't want his girl to be confined to a role template in the end.
[Kaname Madoka] might be the motivation for Rin's acting to improve.
However, Nanaya has not yet finalized this matter. Whether Rin can get this role will have to wait until the next few rounds of auditions to be decided.
However, this did not prevent Nanaya from telling Shion about his plan.
"Isn't this good~"
Shion smiled slightly after listening to Nanaya's explanation.
"Which one is good?"
"Let Rin play the daughter and Sakura play the mother." A strange light flashed in Shion's eyes.
"Is this a good thing?"
Nanaya asked back in confusion.
He could already imagine that if he did this, endless quarrels would definitely be waiting for him on the set.
Plus there's Luvia, who is naturally incompatible with Rin.
Nanaya could already imagine a million scenarios of quarrels in his mind.
"Mother and daughter donburi."
Shion spoke up.
"Meh?"
"Mother and daughter... you know what I mean."
[I don't understand!]
Nanaya roared inwardly.
"Don't say you haven't thought about that before. Isn't that what you like the most?"
Shion already knew her man's quirks.
"How about I have someone make two sets of improved costumes for them then?"
"Is it expensive? Ahem... I mean, it's better not to spend money on this kind of thing."
Nanaya picked up the menu to hide her embarrassment.
But in his heart, he was thinking about Shion's suggestion.
Even if Rin didn't become the real actor of "Madoka Kaname" in the end, it doesn't seem like a loss to have two sets of costumes.
Shion's beautiful eyes narrowed into slits, and she could see that her man was a little moved.
[Sure enough, this animal is really a big pig's hoof. ]
Even though it was her own suggestion, it didn't stop Shion from feeling jealous.
You're looking for death when you're having dinner with me and you're thinking about other women?
"Ouch."
Nanaya felt a sharp pain in his calf, causing him to accidentally drop the menu on the table.
"What's wrong with you?"
Shion snorted unhappily, "Nothing."
Perhaps because this answer made her jealousy too obvious, Shion continued to ask questions.
"I just want to ask about that guy named Astolfo. Isn't he quite popular? What role did you assign to him?"
"Don't mention it."
This time it was Nanaya's turn to snort.
"This is the first time I've seen one person influence the acting of the entire crew."
"Is it really that good?"
Shion was a little surprised.
"Yeah." Nanaya sneered, "That stupid guy is the perfect example of 'one bad apple spoils the whole barrel'."
"puff--!"
Shion, who had just drunk half a mouthful of water, spat it out directly. She coughed and looked at Nanaya.
"Is it so bad?"
Nanaya gave him an affirmative look.
Shion held it in for a long time before she let out a sigh.
"Well~ But this is also proof that humans have infinite possibilities..."
"Anyway, that idiot should just forget about playing the idiot."
Nanaya said with a desperate tone: "Let this guy stand in front of the fans and sell his masculinity, ugh, just act cute."
Anyway, as long as the pink-haired girl is given a maid outfit, fans won't care whether the person wearing the outfit is a man or a woman.
They will just obediently pay to buy Astolfo's maid photos.
If Astolfo did this at the handshake meeting.
Tsk tsk.
Nanaya suddenly felt that it was not difficult to make money while lying down.
"Forget it, let's order first."
Shion shook her head, put the pink-haired girl aside and picked up the menu again.
"Nanaya, is this your first time eating Italian food?"
Although I have taken my husband to many famous restaurants, this is the first time I have been to an Italian restaurant.
"Hmm~ How should I put it… Although my knowledge of Italian food is not limited to pasta and pizza, but…"
Nanaya hid his head behind the menu and whispered.
"It's my first time eating something like this."
"So you haven't eaten it, right?"
Shion didn't care. She quickly browsed the menu and said, "Nanaya, your favorite food, besides the southern cuisine of the Celestial Empire, is Western food... it should be baked lobster, potato salad, steak, and cream soup, right?"
"Huh? You actually knew that?"
Nanaya felt very surprised.
"After all, every time you eat Western food, you always order these if you have the chance."
The woman's expression was smiling. "I was hoping you could tell me what I like to eat."
"Well..."
Nanaya was speechless for a moment.
I really don't know much about Shion's hobbies.
If it was Sakura, Nanaya would know.
After all, the two of them were basically the same except for getting their marriage certificate.
Of course, I know Sakura's eating habits very well.
Nanaya understood what Rin said.
After all, the girl's preference for Chinese food was not much different from what Nanaya remembered.
But the Shion in front of me...
Nanaya really didn't know what she liked because he had never asked.
Although I have eaten out many meals with Shion, apart from knowing that Shion always orders very expensive dishes, there is very little other information about her.
"Look! I knew it."
Shion pouted and whispered, "You better pay more attention to me!"
Having said that, Shion did not tell Nanaya what she liked to eat.
"I'm wrong, isn't that okay?"
"Well, I forgive you."
After saying that, both of them smiled embarrassedly.
However, the man's smile was a little shameful, while the woman's smile was full of pride.
"Hey~ Nanaya, just order whatever you like. It's my treat today anyway."
Shion said generously.
"It's not like I can't afford it now."
Nanaya doesn't think that he can't even afford a meal in a Michelin three-star restaurant.
"Forget it, just spend as much of your money as possible on movies."
"All right."
After ordering cream soup and potato salad, Nanaya ordered lobster pasta and beef stew in red wine.
Shion ordered a vegetable dish and a baked lobster dish.
Although she also ordered pasta for the main course, it was a creamy pasta.
"Okay, that's it."
Shion returned the menu to the waiter and ordered another bottle of red wine and a mocktail.
No need to ask, cocktails are for seven nights.
The food in this restaurant is served very quickly and all was served in a short while.
Shion picked up the fork, flipped it on the plate, rolled up the noodles, and put them into her mouth.
"President Shueisha came to see me recently."
After swallowing the food, Shion spoke.
"Oh?"
Nanaya stopped what he was doing.
"I told him that I could help distribute the 2D animated version of Dragon Ball in Europe and America."
Shion said this with a hint of ruthlessness.
"When the time comes to edit the European and American trailers, come and help."
"What's the matter?"
"I want you to edit Shueisha's Dragon Ball movie and the movie made by Fox together!"
There was a hint of cruelty on Shion's face.
