All the people who like me are other people’s girlfriends! ?

I will also work hard.

I don’t know how long it took, but Banaijian put down his phone, plugged in the charging cable, and then placed it next to his pillow.

She faced the phone.

This way you can just hear each other's breathing.

It's like being face to face.

The blue-haired girl gently closed her eyes. The moonlight outside the window shone down. The corners of her lips curved up, and she said in a barely perceptible voice, "Have a sweet dream."

Qingye became popular.

The light novel published under the pen name Fuyutsuki broke through 40,000 sales in the first week, almost reaching the ceiling of all previous light novels - this was after it was sold out and reprinted twice in a hurry, otherwise the sales would have been much higher.

For this monster newcomer with the potential to dominate, the library company has decisively increased its publicity efforts, which has directly set off a wave of trends in major forums.

If this trend continues, Best Newcomer, Hall of Fame, animation... are basically all natural things. The editors are busy and exhausted every day, feeling both pain and joy.

Even Yanami could hear the director and senior students in the literature department discussing this novel from time to time, which made the girl sigh even more.

The mysterious author who sparked a wave of heated discussion in the industry is currently...

Qingye stood in front of the cooking table, hurriedly handling various tasks, his ears slightly red from the heat - the royalties would not be received until next month, so he had to lie low and endure for now!

Besides, the business in the store is booming right now, and he is needed right now, so he must contribute.

Xiaoju was washing dishes in the sink two meters away. She glanced at Qingye who was sweating profusely, moved her feet quietly, and pushed the air conditioner louver up a little. The cool breeze with the smell of fried oil just blew across his forehead.

Qingye suddenly felt a cold wind and realized something. He turned his head to look, but the girl was just wiping the dishes with her head down.

After Qingye withdrew his gaze, Xiaoju took a moment to glance at the boy quietly, and the scene of that day emerged in her mind.

Although she was so moved at the time that she didn't think much about it, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

Could it be that……

Qingye, he...

he……

Did he give himself the limited edition light novel that he queued up for so long to buy?!

?

ps: I will try to write more tomorrow.

?058. The Sudden Arrival of Hachinoku [Two-in-One]

Xiaoju's guess is well-founded.

First of all, the excuse Qingye gave that day was too lame. It was difficult for a teenager of his age to get in touch with the editors of a library company.

Secondly, the novel that Qingye gave her was a version signed by Mr. Dongyue himself. At that time, Mr. Dongyue was either taking a break or passed away. How could he specially sign for an ordinary person!

So Qingye gave her his novel specially for her!

Really, really, is this guy an idiot? Since Qingye appeared in the bookstore, it means that he is also a fan of Fuyutsuki teacher. Maybe he has been looking forward to it for a long time like her, but in the end he had to endure the pain because of me...

The girl pursed her lips.

——As for the possibility that Kiyono and Teacher Fuyutsuki are the same person, she also considered it, but after thinking about it, she subconsciously denied it.

In her imagination, the image of Master Dongyue was almost perfect. He should be a little older, with clear and gentle eyes. He was a hero that people couldn't help but want to follow. He was mature, upright, passionate, and strong...

And besides being a little more mature, a little more honest, and a little more passionate... huh? Huh? Huh? Huh!?

Xiaoju slowly turned her head to look at Qingye frame by frame, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.

"Xiaoju-chan, could you please go to the convenience store and buy some things for us?"

After finishing their work in the morning, the older sisters in the store huddled in the lounge, enjoying the cool breeze. Because the weather was too hot, most people were too lazy to go out for food and simply thought of using food from the convenience store to solve the problem.

So the question is - who should be chosen to run errands?

In a flash, the dirty adults' eyes met, and they went through a series of suspicions in silence. Finally, they all locked their sights on the dark girl hiding in the gap of the cabinet.

Of course, there was a reason for choosing Xiaoju. She had a two-hour paid leave at noon today and did almost no work. Her physical strength was well preserved. It was not malicious bullying.

This... this is the legendary workplace bullying!

Xiaoju was trembling as if he was being blackmailed by gangsters.

"Here, this is the shopping list and money. As a reward for your hard work, each of us will give you 200 yen. Xiaomari-chan, you can choose whatever you want to eat." Senior Ono said gently.

"I, I'll leave right away!" Xiaoju saluted loyally.

But... Qingye seemed to be ignored by them? Shouldn't everyone get a share in this kind of group shopping? Was he being left out?

The girl glanced around the lounge inconspicuously and walked out the door with confusion.

"What should I buy..."

In the convenience store, after carefully buying the items on the list, Xiaoju stopped in front of the third row of shelves. Through the transparent glass, she saw the summer dessert "Limited Mango Mousse" that she wanted to eat but couldn't bear to buy.

"Okay, that's expensive, it's five hundred."

The girl muttered softly. Although the elder sister did give her 1,000 yen for running errands, which was a well-deserved reward, she was still embarrassed to spend so much. The poorer the family, the more they cared about these things. They didn't dare to take advantage of others for fear of being looked down upon, and they carefully maintained their insignificant self-esteem.

"Well, I'd better buy a popsicle..."

After taking a reluctant look, she looked away and opened the cold food cabinet. In fact, it could not be said that it was a luxury to buy such a dessert with her salary from working, but she still couldn't bear to do it. She would rather use the remaining money to buy more food for her younger brothers and sisters.

Popsicles are still the best! They're cheap, cool down the summer heat, and satisfy our sugar cravings...

She opened the freezer and took out a strawberry-flavored popsicle with satisfaction.

But just as she was about to pay, she suddenly saw a package bag on the shelf next to her - she vaguely remembered that Qingye said yesterday that he liked to eat this chocolate cookie with milk.

"Here, buy him a bag."

The gloomy girl stood on tiptoe slightly and took two bags of cookies and put them into the shopping basket.

Just think of it as a return gift for the light novel.

Besides, everyone else has a lot of stuff, so it would be embarrassing if there is nothing after clearing the jungle.

She put the shopping basket on the checkout counter.

"Sorry, please pay for this separately for me..." The girl pointed to two bags of biscuits and said in a soft voice.

It would be better for her to use her own money for this one.

*

"I'm also involved?"

When Qingye took the biscuit package from Xiaomari, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

He looked down at the name on the package, then looked up at the girl—she had shrunk into the gap!

"How did Xiaoju know this brand?"

After a long silence, a faint voice floated out from the crack between the cabinets:

"Because, because it's in the most conspicuous place on the promotional shelf, by the way..."

"That's it."

Kiyono smiled a summery smile.

Summer seems to be the longest season.

Catch rhinoceros beetles, swim in the pool, ride a bicycle aimlessly on the beach at night, and fall asleep to the seemingly endless chirping of cicadas;

Every day is full of excitement, as if there are endless plans.

Summer seems to be the shortest season.

It was so short that it ended before I knew it. When I opened my eyes again, all that was in front of me was the unfinished summer homework and the painful and dazed all-nighter.

For Qingye, this summer is a season of moving forward.

Just focus on the goal in front of you, take a step, move forward, move forward.

I was so focused that I didn't even notice the passing of the seasons. It was not until the very end that I remembered that I hadn't done anything that pertained to summer.

But he gained something equally precious.

It was dusk.

The sun sets earlier and earlier. Qingye rides his beloved bicycle to the top of a quiet slope. This is a turning point like a runway. Because he has climbed to the highest point, it is surrounded by dilapidated fences and barbed wire. The afterglow of the setting sun shines down, making the top of the slope look as magnificent as the dusk of doomsday.

He stopped his bicycle, let the last evening breeze of summer vacation blow on him, and looked at the city in the distance.

Tokyo, stained with the colors of the evening glow, is extremely gorgeous.

There is a lot of traffic, perfect high school girls, sexy young wives, and office workers in neat suits. People and seasons are moving forward.

Qingye looked at the scene calmly, sat on the ground, took out his cell phone and put it next to him.

But gradually, the boy's expression began to change, becoming solemn and deep, with a frown on his face, like a president who was worried about the future of the city, exuding an extremely serious aura.

Take out your phone and take a look from time to time.

Jingle Bell.

The phone received a new text message.

Qingye grabbed the phone at lightning speed, but put it back in disappointment after seeing the editor's notes.

Aim, aim again.

Finally, the text message that symbolizes the future of mankind has arrived.

【Your bank card has received 18850000 yen.】

Qingye exhaled.

He had imagined many times what he would think at this moment. Most of the images that emerged in his mind at that time were of happiness and excitement. He wanted to turn into a shopping maniac and buy, buy, buy. But at this moment, the first thing he thought of was to take out his mobile phone and edit the text.

Sent a text message to Banaijian.

"Pure Love Warrior: Let's go out and play together on our day off. Hehe, I'll treat you to the best barbecue."

He has no relatives, and the closest person he can think of is her.

In the past, I was short of money, so when I went out to eat with Banaijian, we always went Dutch, and the girl even used a coupon. Now I have to take back my handsome masculinity!

"The girl who doesn't like to eat:!"

"The girl who doesn't like to eat: What happened all of a sudden? Did you win the lottery?"

"Pure Love Warrior: It's okay, it's okay, I just got a small amount of royalties. Salary.jpg"

Although he spoke modestly, the corners of his mouth uncontrollably curled up into a beautiful arc.

Several minutes later, the message finally arrived.

"The girl who doesn't like to eat: Wait, wait a minute! How many zeros are there in this...this...this? Am I seeing correctly, or are you photoshopping this?! I can almost buy a house with this!"

The word "housing price" was like a basin of cold water poured on his fiery heart, calming him down immediately.

It's engraved in our DNA.

"The Girl Who Doesn't Like to Eat: Coach, I Want to Write a Light Novel Too!"

"Pure Love God of War: My disciple, can you keep up with my training?"

"Girl who doesn't like food: I've already looked for a restaurant online. Girl giving a thumbs-up.jpg"

"God of Pure Love: Make a wish to the Holy Grail."

He had no problem revealing all his secrets to the girl. If Banaijian really needed it, he would have no problem giving her all his money.

*

The first thing to do after having money is to rent a house.

After all, I'm a well-known person now. How can I live in internet cafes and hotels all the time? I have to arrange a duplex with a sea view or a river view...Okay, okay, I can't arrange that for the time being. I'll just find an ordinary apartment for now.
