Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

Chapter 89: Straight Ball (The End)

Ding, ding, ding.

The red light at the pedestrian crossing turned green.

Following the crowd, Watanabe Yu walked to the other side of the street.

"Why did Kiriyama leave?"

Ryoko Hamabe naturally followed his footsteps, walked side by side with him, and then took the opportunity to start a conversation.

"He said he had something to do."

Watanabe Yuu considered his words and changed his way of saying it.

"Oh."

"Speaking of which, why are you here?"

He looked at her with some confusion.

The monthly exam for the second year of high school was completely over at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Theoretically speaking, Hamabe Ryoko should be working at a convenience store right now.

"The convenience store is closed today."

As if she had read Watanabe Yu's question, Hamabe Ryoko explained.

"This is last month's salary that the store manager gave me."

She took out the envelope given to her by the store manager from the pocket of her private clothes and handed it to Watanabe Yu.

"Because I was absent a lot, my salary last month wasn't very high, but please accept it. I will work harder this month!"

The bright sunshine sprinkled on her side face, making her fair little face even more sparkling.

"Do you have enough living expenses?"

Watanabe Yu was not in a hurry to take the envelope.

"I left myself enough to live on."

Hamabe Ryoko smiled brightly.

"So don't worry about me!"

She was afraid that Watanabe Yu would not accept her money.

Yes, she knew that Watanabe Yu took good care of her and did not urge her to pay back the money, and he had good intentions towards her.

But one thing is for sure, she never thought of defaulting on the money she owed.

"Have you really left enough? You're not being stubborn?"

He turned his head and looked at her.

"I really left enough, I didn't try to be brave."

She met his gaze openly.

His face was reflected in those bright eyes.

"...That's fine."

Watanabe Yu hesitated for a moment, but still took the envelope.

He knew Hamabe Ryoko's temper.

If I reject her now, it will hurt her.

But at the same time, he also didn't want Hamabe Ryoko to live in extreme poverty because of paying back the debt.

[After the rain, Jasmine finally waited for her sunny day]

But this doesn't mean she will lose her self-esteem.

[She is a very principled girl. She is very careful and keeps in mind the kindness of others.]

[The envelope contained not only 70% of her salary from last month, but also her silly determination]

【Love options updated】

[Under the premise of not hurting her self-esteem, are you willing to lend a hand and give her a helping hand? ]

Lao Tong, you finally become a human being.

Give some options that can be done.

Ugh.

Watanabe Yu sighed in his heart and took the initiative to start the conversation.

"Ryoko."

He called out her name.

The two of them had already stepped into the shade of the street corner, and the tall buildings across the street blocked most of the sunlight pouring down.

"Ok?"

She turned her head, her brows relaxed slightly, and her voice was very gentle.

"I want to be lazy."

Watanabe Yu made an excuse.

"……What's the meaning?"

Ryoko Hamabe tilted her head, and there was a hint of confusion on her pretty little face.

"Don't you want to learn those dishes?"

he asked.

“I want to learn.”

She nodded.

She really wanted to learn how to cook it and then make it for him, just like the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that he praised so highly that day.

"It's better to do it today than today. Let's do it today. I'll teach you."

He paused for a moment and continued.

"In exchange, you will be in charge of cooking from now on, and we can eat together, okay?"

This was the only way he could think of to help the girl without hurting her self-esteem.

"Of course!"

Hamabe Ryoko's steps unconsciously became lighter.

This is a meal together!

It represents the beginning of a more progressive relationship, doesn't it?

"Then I'll give you a key when I get back."

"But since we're eating together, I have to pay for the food as well."

She looked at Watanabe Yu and said this very seriously.

"Definitely."

Watanabe Yu nodded, then changed the subject.

"Normally speaking, the food expenses should be half for each person, right?"

He began to persuade her step by step.

"Yes."

"But you are responsible for cooking, right? The daily workload is quite heavy, isn't it?"

"……Yes?"

"Besides, I'm a very picky person, always nitpicking, so..."

"I'm willing to change it slowly to suit your taste."

Her voice was soft, but firm.

"That was not what I meant."

He hasn't finished the second half of his sentence yet! He hasn't finished talking about money yet!
"What do you say."

Hamabe Ryoko pretended to be listening attentively.

"What I mean is that you only need to pay 20,000 yen for the monthly food expenses. I have made the reasons very clear."

He thought for a moment and added, "That's only fair, isn't it?"

He was really afraid that the girl would become stubborn again.

"……it is good."

After a moment of silence, Hamabe Ryoko finally agreed.

She could feel his kindness and knew what he was worried about.

In that case, she should do more.

Let him be lazy to the end.

"Then it's settled?"

Watanabe Yu asked again.

"Ah."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded and agreed.

"Then, there is one more thing."

She blinked.

"How did you do in this exam?"

She had helped him with tutoring before the exam.

He was a quick learner and had a very strong ability to comprehend things, which, to be honest, far exceeded her expectations.

“Is it really appropriate for the top student in the grade to ask how the top 100 students in the grade did in the exam?”

Yu Watanabe made a little joke.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."

Hamabe Ryoko's attitude immediately softened.

"No, I'm just joking, don't get excited."

He quickly explained.

"Anyway, overall, I feel it's okay."

At least based on his intuitive feeling, it is better than last time.

"Does that mean you've made progress compared to before?"

Hamabe Ryoko's voice is as lively as a bird.

"Yes."

If nothing unexpected happens this time, Sister Risa’s gold coins will definitely be exploded by him.

I really like the feeling of others giving me gold coins.jpg
"Congratulations~"

Hamabe Ryoko cooperated and clapped her hands, like a kindergarten teacher coaxing children.

“It’s mainly because the teacher taught well.”

He added this sentence at the right time:

"hey-hey."

She smiled foolishly.

"By the way, how did you perform this time?"

He threw the subject back to her.

“It should not be much different from before.”

She gave a tactful answer.

"Great!"

"It's just luck."

Although she said this, there was a hint of pride between Hamabe Ryoko's eyebrows.

She liked him praising her very much.

"You're so lucky that all the questions on the test are what you know, right?"

"Yeah~"

She nodded, quickened her pace, and walked into the sunlight.

Now they have passed the last intersection and have walked to the residential area.

There were not many cars passing in the lane at this moment, and there were relatively few pedestrians on the road.

"By the way, Watanabe, do you have any particular favorite dishes?"

Hamabe Ryoko turned her head and asked in a natural tone.

"Why are you asking about this suddenly?"

"I want to treat you to a meal next time I get my salary."

She answered generously.

"You want to give me gold coins, right?"

Watanabe Yuu slipped up and said this.

"What does it mean to explode gold coins?"

She tilted her head.

"It's probably about spending money on someone's behalf, but it's more playful."

He gave a brief explanation.

"No problem."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded.

After writing the letter that day, she felt clear-headed.

Grandma was right.

Make friends who make you happy, love people who won’t make you cry, and walk firmly towards where you want to go.

Now, she has found her own harbor.

He is good to her.

She tried every way to be nice to him!

"Yu."

Suddenly, Hamabe Ryoko called out his name.

"Ok?"

He turned his head and looked at her.

"Nothing, I just wanted to call you."

She put her hands behind her back and walked briskly ahead.

In the sunshine, her smile is as beautiful as a bauhinia flower blooming in the wind.

Grandma, I’ve thought it over.

I don’t want to think about so many unnecessary things.

As long as You still needs me, I will always stay by his side.

Looking at her back, Watanabe Yu couldn't help but smile.

She is much more lively now than she was before.
