For the first time in her life, Fujiwara Chika experienced what it felt like to be completely out of place with those around her.
Chapter 37
Under the doubtful gaze of Fujiwara Chika, Ye Ziye left. He had completed his mission in the student council and was now going to work.
He had some questions, though, about why Fujiwara Chika would suddenly make that expression, when she had been smiling just moments before. He was also somewhat relieved that he hadn't been mistaken for a strange person.
In addition, he thought Kaguya Shinomiya's answer was excellent; at least he couldn't think of a better one.
After returning home, Ye Ziye changed her clothes and headed to the coffee shop.
He was lucky; a tram arrived just as he got to the station. Although there were no seats left, the timing was perfect.
Soon, Ye Ziye arrived at the pet cafe. Kato Megumi was already standing outside, holding one of the cafe's orange cats in her arms and yawning.
This was the first time Ye Ziye had seen Kato Megumi dressed casually. She wore a pink dress and a white knitted cardigan, and her legs were exposed as if she wasn't afraid of the cold. She looked youthful and beautiful.
Ye Ziye was puzzled. Why would such a cute girl have no suitors? Was her invisibility ability really that powerful?
"Kato, I'm late."
"It's okay, I just arrived too."
Kato Megumi put down the cat in her arms, shook her head and looked at the boy opposite her. It was also the first time she had seen Yoko Yo in casual clothes.
A white shirt and jeans—ordinary clothes—possess a strange charm on Ye Ziye, making one think they're from a high-end brand.
"Let's go inside!"
After exchanging greetings, Ye Ziye pushed open the door of the coffee shop. He wasn't late; the official opening was still ten minutes away.
When he came in, Kudo Nami, who was petting the cat, was a little surprised. She had received a text message from Ye Ziye that he was openly late, and she was even preparing to postpone the opening.
Why are you here?
"Was I fired because I was an employee here?"
Ye Ziye found this question inexplicable.
"That's not what I meant. I meant, why did you come so early? Didn't you say you were going to come later?"
"Oh, because the process went smoothly, I wasn't late."
Kudo Nami was very unhappy with Ye Ziye's bland tone, but there was nothing she could do about it; she was a shop manager whose power had been usurped.
"Hello..."
The light, airy voice reached Kudo Nami's ears, and only then did she notice that there was another girl behind Ye Ziye.
Does this girl know how to become invisible?
Kudo Nami carefully examined Kato Megumi, feeling somewhat puzzled. She was a classic beauty with fair skin, a pretty face, and long legs; logically, there was no reason why she wouldn't notice such a beauty.
Kato Megumi was already used to this situation. Sometimes when she went to a family restaurant, if she didn't call the waiter, the waiter wouldn't even know that someone had come in.
"This is Megumi Kato, my classmate..."
Ye Ziye gave Kato Megumi a brief self-introduction, then pointed to the spot that Akiyama Hitomi had occupied for two days and said...
"You can sit there. There's a drink menu on the table. Take a look and see what you'd like to drink."
Logically speaking, a normal guy would say "I'll treat," but Ye Ziye isn't that naive. With money tight these days, treating someone isn't a wise move.
"it is good..."
Kato Megumi's movements were as light and airy as she was. She looked around the store as she walked there, and by the time she sat down, Ye Ziye had already come out of the staff break room.
"Ye Zi Jun, this store's decor is really nice, and the cats are adorable too."
Nami Kudo listened from behind, proudly holding her head high. This was all her work; she had always considered herself a very creative person.
"It's alright, what would you like to drink?"
Ye Ziye paid no attention to Kudo Nami's achievements and pointed out his own problem.
Kudo Nami was naturally very unhappy. She bared her teeth at Yoko, displaying her authority as the store manager, while also sizing up Kato Megumi.
This was the first time Ye Ziye had brought a classmate to the store, and it was a girl, which surprised Kudo Nami.
Although Kato Megumi looks cute, her ability to remain invisible is so strong that Kudo Nami has no doubt that if she looks elsewhere for a while, she will forget about this girl.
Although Ye Ziye also has a plain personality, his refined and scholarly temperament cannot be concealed. He exudes a scholarly air, and the two of them standing together are completely mismatched.
Have you made your choice?
"Cappuccino, I haven't tried anything else."
As a high school student, Kato Megumi doesn't drink coffee much; she mostly drinks milk tea or other sweet beverages. However, she doesn't mind revealing this fact to Ye Ziye.
"Okay, just a moment."
He's made Cappuccino Leaf Night hundreds of times; it's the most frequently ordered coffee in the shop, and he's very skilled at it.
While he was making coffee, the shop door was pushed open, and Nakamura Nanami ran in, panting heavily, his cute face showing his out-of-breath breathing.
"Sorry, manager, I'm late."
"It's ok."
Kudo Nami didn't turn around, continuing to observe Kato Megumi. Then, as if remembering something, she pulled Nakamura Nanami, who was still panting heavily, to her side and whispered...
"See that girl? Ye Zijun brought her; she's your rival in love!"
"What?!"
Chapter 38
Nakamura Nanami's cute face was full of shock as she quickly looked at Kato Megumi. To be honest, she hadn't noticed her at all.
"Is that Ye Zijun's girlfriend?"
Not yet, not at present.
Currently, this is a very obscure term, implying that even if it isn't now, it might be in the future.
Nakamura Nanami understood the subtext and looked at Kato Megumi with wariness. Then, as if remembering something, he ran to the staff break room, changed into an apron, and ran back.
"Commander Kudo, are you aware of the opponent's strength?"
"It's still unclear, but as the first woman Ye Zijun brought here, her strength should not be underestimated!"
The two men were talking like spies; if there had been any outsiders, they would have definitely said, "Two lunatics."
Since there was no concrete information and no other guests at the moment, Kudo Nami and Nakamura Nanami decided to observe the situation carefully for a while longer.
Meanwhile, Ye Ziye finished making the cappuccino for Kato Megumi.
"Please use it."
"The latte art on this is so cute, is it your Garfield?"
"Correct."
Ye Ziye was surprised that Kato Megumi could see through it. He was prepared to explain. Should he say that this girl was very observant? Or was it that his technique was too good?
Megumi Kato inhaled the steam from the coffee, which carried a captivating fragrance that was far superior to any cappuccino she had ever had before.
"I'm starting to eat."
After saying something in a very ceremonial manner, Kato Megumi picked up her teacup and took a small sip.
"It's delicious! It's better than anything I've ever had before!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
To cater to Kato Megumi's taste, Ye Ziye increased the sugar content of this cappuccino considerably.
"Does Ye Zi want to become a barista in the future? If it were you, I think you could definitely do it!"
Kato Megumi gave it extremely high praise. The reason was simple: this coffee was just too delicious. One sip made you want to drink another, as if it had some kind of magic.
"Being a barista... I don't have any plans for that right now."
"What is Ye Zijun's dream?"
Kato Megumi was a little curious. As a Japanese person, she believed that one should pursue a career in what one is good at, otherwise schools in Japan would not be so keen on developing clubs.
"dream?"
Ye Ziye was taken aback. He naturally had dreams, his short-term goal being to get into Dongda University, but he hadn't decided on a long-term dream.
Because of the system, he can learn anything very quickly, and if he wants, he can quickly become a big shot in any field.
However, he did not have a clear goal. When he first came to this world and learned that he had a system, Ye Ziye thought about many things.
He dreamed of becoming a writer, someone he would enjoy who wouldn't have to leave the house every day.
He also considered becoming an actor, someone who would be in the spotlight and make money easily. You could say he considered every profession that exists in the world, but ultimately rejected them all.
Ye Ziye knew that he was the type of person who loved what he did. He didn't have a clear goal, so he had no direction to strive for and could only maintain a short-term dream: to get into the University of Tokyo.
Sometimes he would think that if his predecessor had left some kind of will, he could have continued the unfinished business and dreams of his predecessor.
But his transmigration was so sudden that it made people lose their way. Even with the system as a cheat, Ye Ziye was still confused.
If he could, he would like to live such an ordinary life every day, without thinking about his identity as a transmigrator, and just be a slightly wealthy ordinary person.
He didn't want to be like other time travelers, becoming someone who, like Einstein or Newton, propelled humanity to a new level.
They also don't want to control an economic empire that affects the country's economic lifeline, like Samsung, Mitsui, or Rockefeller.
He was a transmigrator with no ambition, Ye Ziye admitted. Perhaps it was his personality, or perhaps it was reality. After all, he had transmigrated to such an ordinary world.
If he were to transmigrate into a world like Naruto or One Piece, he would go to great lengths to use the system to improve his strength in order to prevent himself from suddenly dying one day.
But in this ordinary world, he just wanted to live an ordinary life.
"If I had a dream, I'd want to be a Kamen Rider!"
Ye Ziye suddenly smiled, which stunned Kato Megumi.
Having known each other for a month, this was the first time she had ever seen the boy smile, not because of anything seemingly casual, but because of a rather serious question.
However, her deskmate has a rather pretty smile.
"Ye Zijun is really joking."
Kato Megumi smiled and didn't ask any more questions. She knew what Kamen Rider was, but she didn't understand it; she had only heard the boys in her class discuss it.
