Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

Chapter 167 Excuses
Ever since August, Watanabe Yu has had an indescribable sense of dislocation.

His life seemed to have been fast-forwarded by an alien, and he was moving forward at twice the speed in the wilderness of life.

When he came to his senses, it was already mid-August, the day he and Yuki Hayakawa had agreed to meet.

"Come to think of it, this is the first time I've left your house to go to a western-style restaurant like this."

In the evening, Yuki Hayakawa, who was walking on the residential road after coming out of the Watanabe house, took the initiative to start talking.

During this period, she would visit his home from time to time under the pretext of being his partner.

Of course, her frequency was not too high, only once every two days. Most of the time, she would shamelessly eat a meal before leaving.

But she didn't come here with the intention of taking advantage. Every time she came to eat, she would bring large and small bags of high-quality fruits.

In her words, this was her 'meal fee'.

"Are you hinting at something?"

Watanabe Yu raised his head and looked at the skyline where only a little light remained.

The sun seems to be in a bad mood these days. It has set early for several days in a row. If it were last month, it would be impossible for the sun to set at this time, or even for the sunlight to be a little smaller.

"What do you think?"

Yuki Hayakawa did not answer but asked instead.

She put her hands behind her back, held her left wrist with her right hand, and quickened her pace a little.

They came out at a rather inopportune time and just happened to run into people who were out for a walk.

In the past, she might not have been too interested in the coming and going of people, but now, she found it quite interesting, and even the fatigue from practicing during the day was dissipated a lot.

"I just don't know."

Watanabe Yu stretched out his body and spoke in a very relaxed tone.

If he was sure, he wouldn't ask this.

"In theory," Hayakawa Yuki coughed lightly and said seriously, "As partners, we need to have enough tacit understanding. The more we act together, the better the tacit understanding will be."

"...I thought you were going to say that for a dinner like this, we would either meet at a fixed location or the man would pick up the woman."

Watanabe Yu shook his head, thinking that he was overthinking it.

"It's good that I came to pick you up." Hayakawa Yuki blinked, "A female knight and a prince, doesn't it sound like that?"

She doesn't care about these so-called 'details'.

In her opinion, any kind of dinner is acceptable, it all depends on how both parties negotiate.

As for who must pick whom up, she felt that it was totally unnecessary.

“It does have that flavor.”

Watanabe Yuu responded.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the first fork in the road after coming out.

There are three directions at the fork in the road.

Going forward will lead you to the commercial street closest to the residential area, going left will merge into the main road, and going right will lead to another residential area.

“Keep going.”

As if she saw Watanabe Yu's confusion, she took the initiative to give an answer before he asked.

The Western restaurant they were going to this time was a well-known reservation-only restaurant in the Tokyo area.

This time it was not her who booked the seat, but Yamano Yuzhi's.

Although her grandfather didn't tell her directly why they chose that restaurant, she could guess it to some extent.

Generally speaking, reservation-based restaurants have far more privacy than ordinary restaurants.

Besides, this western restaurant is the closest to her home.

"Ok."

Seeing the red light on the other side of the crosswalk turn green, Watanabe Yu took a step forward.

The traffic light at this intersection is the longest since I left home, lasting a full 70 seconds, and even up to 80 seconds during rush hour.

Their luck was pretty good. Although the light didn't turn green, they only had to wait for 10 seconds.

"Aren't you curious?"

After crossing the crosswalk, Yuki Hayakawa turned around and looked at Yu Watanabe with curiosity.

"What are you curious about?"

Watanabe Yu grabbed her arm and, with a little force, pulled her a little towards him.

The next second, a child running forward with a balloon passed by her.

The parent who was pulled forward by the child turned around and gave her an apologetic look while passing by.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Watanabe Yu responded, then switched positions with Hayakawa Yuki, letting her walk on the inner side.

"Are you so stupid, Mr. Watanabe?"

Yuki Hayakawa winked and there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

"This is just the beginning. I haven't even started teaching you math yet."

Watanabe Yu looked at Hayakawa Yuki with a smile.

It should be said that math is something that he really can't do. Many of the solutions that he thought should be obvious at a glance were simply incomprehensible to Hayakawa Yuki, as if he was speaking an alien language instead of a human language. Although she got better later, it was only in the literal sense.

Anyway, judging from his speculation, if nothing unexpected happens, her math should be unexpected.

"…It's vacation time now! Stop talking about studying all the time!"

Yuki Hayakawa was silent for a moment and abruptly changed the subject.

Yes, she performed quite well in the final exam, but her math score was indeed a bit behind that of other subjects.

This is under the premise that Watanabe Yuu took great pains and taught her patiently.

"Okay, back to the original question. What do you mean by not curious?"

Watanabe Yu took the opportunity to change the topic back.

"He would tell you anything and talk about anything."

Yuki Hayakawa looked at the billboard of the fruit shop not far away.

As long as they see the billboard, it means they are very close to the restaurant.

They agreed to meet at seven in the evening.

Originally, she wanted to take You out to dinner alone, and as for the interview with Yamano Yuzhi, she would leave it for the afternoon before dinner. However, the time they discussed was either not suitable for her, You, or Yamano Yuzhi.

In desperation, the time can only be set at this moment.

Her dinner for two was thus ruined.

but……

She still wanted to make amends.

"This dinner may not be yours to treat, it's Grandpa Yuzhi's, so this one doesn't count."

As Hayakawa Yuki spoke, she paid attention to Watanabe Yu's expression.

"no problem."

Watanabe Yu agreed very readily.

In the previous phone call, Yuki Hayakawa explained the situation clearly. He was very clear that he already owed her two favors.

Eaters are soft-mouthed and takers are short-handed, that's all.

"Let's find a time when we're both free. You pick a place, and we'll go have a good meal. Is that ok with you?"

He looked at Hayakawa Yuki.

"Just a meal?"

There was something more intriguing in Yuki Hayakawa's voice.

"Two meals?"

"Can you spare a day? I'll treat it as a date with my partner to build our rapport."

She didn't waste any words and spoke directly about her thoughts.

As for the date location, she had already planned it in her mind, and even had a rough outline of the itinerary.

She had even thought of the restaurant where she would eat.

At that time, she would not drag him to the best restaurant of the same type, but would choose a second-rate one. In this way, she could ask him out again on the grounds that she did not taste the most authentic xx cuisine last time.

"……Can."

Watanabe Yu thought about it and finally agreed.

"Kafka on the Shore" has been completed, and he is still thinking about the next book.

He has relatively more free time recently.

After all, morning exercises and self-study of knowledge points for the next semester do not take up most of his time.

"Then let's talk about the specific arrangements later. I'll contact you through Line when I've made up my mind?"

Yuki Hayakawa took the opportunity to say this.

"Ah."

Watanabe Yu raised his eyebrows and his eyes suddenly fell on a billboard not far away.

"Are we there yet?"

He pointed to the billboard.

Compared to the billboard of the fruit and vegetable store they saw just now, the billboard of this western restaurant is obviously much more stylish.

That's right, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Is this western restaurant too business-like?

"Yes." Hayakawa Yuki stopped, turned around, and gave Watanabe Yu a look, "Follow me."

"..."

Watanabe Yu didn't say anything, but answered with practical actions and followed her.

The two of them walked up the stairs one after the other and entered the restaurant.
