Kyoto: I just want to be a gentleman

He didn't get the answer he wanted.

Just when he was discouraged and ready to leave, the girl's hand quietly grabbed the hem of his clothes.

"I... agree..."

Maybe it was the noisy environment around him that made him hallucinate, or maybe it was the severe blow he had just suffered that made him hallucinate. He looked at the girl who was still lowering her head, at a loss, "What?!"

The girl suddenly raised her cheeks, which were stained with blood-red, and shouted loudly: "I like you too, Che", then she put her arms around the boy's neck and kissed him fiercely.

The boy and the girl hugged each other tightly. At this moment, the world was willing to stop for them. Only the sounds of their breathing and heartbeats were constantly intertwined in the air.

The boy lowered his head slightly, his eyes gentle yet firm, while the girl's eyes were closed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was enjoying this hard-earned kiss.

After the kiss, the lips parted.

The girl's soul was also pulled back from the distant sky by a thin rope. Recalling her slightly crazy behavior just now, she said a little embarrassedly: "When did this piece of wood, Che Jun, come to his senses?"

The boy was stunned, touched his messy hair, and slowly said: "I...accidentally...saw Shiori's diary..."

"What?!!" The girl's eyes were first shocked, then shy, and then filled with murderous intent.

"I didn't mean to do that, I just picked up a notebook..." When the boy saw that something was wrong, he quickly backed away while waving his hands.

"You big pervert, big idiot, you are looking for death!!!"

"Shiori, weren't we just together?"

"Being together doesn't change the fact that you're a pervert, watch me get beaten!"

"Stop hitting me, I was wrong."

"You can't even admit your mistakes!"

......

The final volume of "My Love Comedy Never Ends" is completed

'

When his eyes moved to the last word of the complete book, Xiuxing breathed a sigh of relief, and then drank the little drink left on the table.

He finally finished reading the light novel that he and Chiharu Kitano bought in Shijo Kawaramachi last time.

Looking up, I saw that the night had quietly fallen, bringing deep darkness into the house.

Xiuxing picked up the phone next to him and checked the time: 8:35, which was much earlier than he expected.

He didn't know what mood he was in. It felt very strange.

Both happy and lonely.

What made him happy was that he had finally finished reading this light novel. It had been two years since the book was first serialized, which meant that he had finally finished reading a complete story.

What’s sad is that the characters in the story have drifted away from him.

When he was halfway through reading, he had already imagined countless times where the hero and heroine would go and what they would do.

Anyway, I wish them happiness.

Lu Xun once said that life is like a journey.

Everyone has to go through the process of letting go, whether it’s people or things.

Hideyuki originally thought about writing a novel with a strong Japanese aesthetic style in junior high school as the first start-up capital.

But after learning a little about it, he gave up his plan to write a novel in Japanese style.

The three major aesthetic concepts advocated by Japan are mono no aware, yugen, and wabi sabi, among which mono no aware aesthetics is the most prominent.

The so-called mono no aware is an aestheticism with sadness as its keynote.

It appeared earliest, with signs appearing as early as the Heian period.

Yugen and wabi-sabi appeared in the Middle Ages and modern times respectively.

Mono no aware can be divided into three categories. The first level is the sadness of love between men and women; the second level is the touching feeling of the world; and the third level is the touching feeling of natural objects.

There is a big difference between Japanese sorrow and Chinese sorrow.

Behind China's grief is often a larger environment, such as the changing times and the grief of the people under the rolling wheels of history.

But the Japanese sadness is personal, and the pessimism is lighter and more frivolous. It is not about resistance and dissatisfaction, but a complete understanding of the impermanence of life and the inevitability of fate.

The pursuit of beauty in nature symbolizes the purification and transcendence of human beings after they feel the limitations of life, and turn to talk about true feelings.

Watching the cherry blossoms fall, I feel the beauty and death. Life is short, so there is indifference, enthusiasm, or sadness under objective circumstances.

As time goes by, with the inheritance of culture over the past four hundred years, the tragic beauty and sad beauty of mono no aware, which is born from the empty state of mind, has gradually evolved into the core element of Japanese traditional culture and the characteristic of Japanese literature.

Yamaguchi Baihui suddenly retired at the peak of her career in the entertainment industry; Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Dazai Osamu, and Mishima Yukio chose to commit suicide at the peak of their careers as writers; Takemiya Masaki and Otake Hideo, who insisted on "beautiful chess moves" even when they lost...

Watanabe Hideyuki was overwhelmed by the entire update and changes.

First, points can be exchanged for Japanese yen.

He expressed great satisfaction and said it was very humane.

He has a total of 280 points. 280 times 500 is yen, which is already a considerable amount.

Every time he makes a choice, he will get 50 to 100 points, which is equivalent to yen to yen. As long as he can encounter this option ten times a month, he will exceed the average monthly income in Japan.

Of course, he wasn't so poor that he would resort to something like exchanging points for money, which was not cost-effective.

But having this option is better than not having it.
