Anime Crossover: My Girlfriend Has a System

Nakamura Nanami, who had been feeling uneasy, raised her head, her cute face full of surprise. She thought she was going to be scolded.

Because she had tried making her own coffee, and compared to Ye Ziye's, it was like heaven and earth, like two completely different kinds of coffee, even though they used the same ingredients.

"You're a beginner, and you've already done a great job. Once you correct some minor mistakes, reaching my level won't be difficult."

"To reach Master Ye's level..."

Nakamura Nanami murmured to herself, her eyes sparkling with beautiful dreams for the future. In the future, she would be a famous barista!

"Yes! I will definitely try my best!"

Looking at the energetic Nakamura Nanami, Ye Ziye nodded. Girls with this kind of personality are easier to deal with, and he likes them very much.

"By the way, what were you talking about with the store manager just now? You seemed to be having a great time."

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Ye Ziye wanted to ask a question, because Kudo Nami was not usually a talkative person. She usually just rubbed Nakamura Nanami's little face and rarely said a word.

"Oh, Nami-nee is telling me about the fun she had at the wedding, and she even showed me a picture of the bride. She's so beautiful!"

After saying that, a look of longing appeared in Nakamura Nanami's eyes. No matter when, girls will always have a fondness for beautiful wedding dresses and rings.

"I see."

Ye Ziye pursed his lips and didn't ask any further questions; he already knew the answer.

Just then, the shop door was pushed open, and the first customer entered the shop. As expected, it was Hitomi Akiyama.

"Ye Zi Jun, I haven't seen you for two days, I miss you so much!"

As soon as she entered, Hitomi Akiyama fully displayed her dramatic flair, acting slightly exaggeratedly, which made Ye Ziye involuntarily take a few steps back.

"Seriously, Nami closed the shop for two consecutive weekends, which prevented me from coming to the store to have a good time with Yoko."

Kudo Nami, who had been listening quietly, rolled her eyes and then continued tending to her plants. It was all beyond her control.

"Ye Zi-jun, have you missed me?"

After saying that, she winked at Ye Ziye.

Actually, Hitomi Akiyama is quite a beautiful woman, but the age gap is too big. Ye Ziye doesn't know how to deal with a woman like that, so he simply ignores her flirting.

However, he still took out his completed novel and his own illustrations from his bag; he needed a professional editor's review.

"Please take a look at this for me."

"So fast?"

Hitomi Akiyama seemed somewhat surprised, as the authors under her supervision were not even half as fast as Ye Ziye.

"Well, since I have the weekend off, I took advantage of that time to finish writing the first volume of the novel."

Hitomi Akiyama nodded, her expression changing from frivolous to serious, and she returned to work, opening Ye Ziye's novel.

As a professional editor, Hitomi Akiyama reads novels very quickly, practically skimming through them. In less than fifteen minutes, she had already finished reading the first volume.

Hitomi Akiyama took a deep breath, her expression somewhat serious, and looked at Ye Ziye, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"Ye Zi, please make sure I sign you! Also, don't be a barista anymore. If you focus on writing, you can definitely become a great writer!"

"Hey, don't poach my employees right in front of me!"

Kudo Nami, who was tending to the plants, appeared just in time. (Just kidding!) Half of the shop's success is thanks to Yoko Yo.

"Yes, yes, I haven't finished learning coffee making from Master Ye yet."

Nakamura Nanami was also standing to the side, looking pitiful, her cute face making you want to pinch it, and Akiyama Hitomi did just that.

"I was just kidding. I would be very sad if I didn't get to taste Ye Zijun's coffee."

After saying that, she made a cute, out-of-the-box gesture that seemed completely out of character for her age, which made Ye Ziye feel a little uncomfortable.

After pinching Nakamura Nanami's cheeks, Akiyama Hitomi put on a serious expression and said...

"Ye Zijun, your novel is excellent. At least in terms of writing style, I can't find any fault with it, and I've never seen a better writer..."

Thank you.

Ye Ziye was prepared for such praise. His learning skills had already reached level 4, and if his writing wasn't up to par, the system could just let him go.

"You've added a lot of cute female characters to the plot as I requested, which is great. However, slice-of-life novels don't really have a market. This book will definitely be published, but it's unlikely to be a big hit."

"I am clear."

Ye Ziye knew that the market for light novels was mostly filled with stories about overpowered protagonists and wish-fulfillment fantasies; there simply wasn't anyone like him who simply depicted everyday life.

It can be said to be a rare species, and he didn't intend for the novel to be a big seller; it would be good enough if it could be published at all.

"Furthermore, there's one more crucial point!"

"What is it?"

Ye Ziye frowned; he could sense that Akiyama Hitomi seemed even more serious now.

"I strongly demand that the character based on Nami Kudo be removed, because it overlaps with my character!"

"Hey!"

Kudo Nami roared again. If she didn't want to maintain an elegant image in front of her employees, she would have rushed over long ago.

"I will seriously consider it."

"No, Ye Zi! I'm your boss."

The pet café was filled with Kudo Nami's wails.

What Ye Ziye said just now was obviously a joke, and he felt that his joke had a great effect, as could be seen from Kudo Nami's reaction.

As night deepened, Tokyo lit up its streets with streetlights, and the number of customers in the shops increased.

Akiyama Hitomi put Ye Ziye's novel away, saying she would take it back and read it carefully, and would bring the contract over to sign it tomorrow.

Ye Ziye had no objection to this; if the editor was an acquaintance, it would save a lot of trouble.

When it was time to leave, all the customers in the store had left. Ye Ziye took some more novels from the store, said goodbye to the two girls, and then walked out of the coffee shop.

All in all, a variety of things happened today, but for Ye Ziye, it was quite a fulfilling day.

Chapter 78

Saturday, May 9th, sunny.

Ye Ziye and Kudo Nami took the day off today because he had something quite important to do.

With the arrival of May, the plum rains became increasingly severe, and Ye Ziye's house was now uninhabitable, with mold covering every wall and a foul stench.

Although Ye Ziye wasn't that picky about where she lived, it at least couldn't have any unpleasant smells.

So Ye Ziye has been searching for roommates online these days, and because she has Garfield with her, the task of finding a place to live is particularly difficult.

But perhaps it was a stroke of luck for him, because yesterday when he was looking for a house online, he happened to find one that met his criteria.

It's a shared apartment for two people, with each person paying 40,000 yen in rent per month. To be honest, that's not a high figure in Tokyo, it's even a bit low.

Because that place wasn't as remote as his current house. Although it wasn't in a bustling downtown area, there was a large, convenient supermarket nearby.

You could say this rent is a charity event. The advertisement was posted by the current tenant of the house, so Ye Ziye isn't worried about being scammed.

After talking with her future roommate, Ye Ziye began preparing to move.

He didn't have much to take with him: a cat, some clothes, some books, no valuables, and nothing in the house that he would miss.

He had already moved out of the moldy old house, and the landlord didn't try to stop him. In Tokyo, there are plenty of tenants who don't care about the musty smell.

"Garfield, we're going to our new home."

Garfield seemed to know that its cat food would no longer get damp, and it meowed excitedly a few times, though Ye Ziye wasn't quite sure if it was a cat's meow.

Because the new house was quite far from his current house, he didn't try to walk there, as he had a good understanding of his own physical limitations.

Ye Ziye splurged on a taxi and headed to her new house.

As expected of a taxi, it was very fast, and it took Ye Ziye a short while to get to her destination. After paying a hefty fare, Ye Ziye began to look around at the house in front of her.

It wasn't a towering skyscraper, just a four-story building housing about twenty families. Ye Ziye wasn't quite sure, because he didn't know if every family was occupied.

The small building was surrounded by a white fence, inside which were planted several cherry blossom trees. However, at this time of year, the cherry blossom trees had long since withered, leaving only bare trees.

After looking around for a while, Ye Ziye nodded in satisfaction. This was beyond his expectations. It was just a pity that he arrived a little late. If he had come earlier, he might have been able to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom.

The room number of the apartment he wanted to rent was 203. The floor was neither too high nor too low, which was just what he expected. He led Garfield upstairs, and Ye Ziye knocked on the door.

"coming!"

The room was well soundproofed; Ye Ziye could only hear a very faint sound standing outside. However, for some reason, he felt that the sound was somewhat familiar.

The thick security door was opened, revealing a dazzling golden light. Ye Ziye looked down and saw a familiar face.

Artoria Pandoragon, the girl he hadn't seen in so long, appeared before him.

Unlike when she was at school, Artoria wasn't wearing a school uniform. Instead, she was dressed in a blue casual outfit, and her long, dazzling golden hair was tied up with a blue ribbon, making her look like a noblewoman from a medieval European court.

Unlike her previous sharp and imposing demeanor, Artoria now appears gentle, elegant, and beautiful, with a single tuft of hair on her head adding a touch of girlish charm.

After staring at the girl in front of him for two seconds, Ye Ziye looked at the house number again. That's right, it was 203.

"Your online name is King Arthur?"

Ye Ziye asked somewhat uncertainly. In his opinion, an international student like Altria should live in a magnificent European-style castle, wear a formal long dress, and be adorned with expensive jewelry.

Instead of appearing in an ordinary residential house like this, and soon becoming his roommate.

Is it really possible for such a coincidence to happen in the world?

"Are you Ye Zi?"

Artoria seemed surprised as well, and took out her phone to show Ye Ziye the chat history between the two of them.

Yezi: Looking for a roommate?

King Arthur: Hmm.

Leaf: Can I bring pets?

King Arthur: Hmm.

Yezi: Can I check in tomorrow?
