I want to start a conversation, but I don't know what to say.

A clear sense of foolishness.

But out of respect for Aragaki Yui, Kitahara Makoto replied.

"Not yet, I haven't gotten out of bed yet, I just woke up."

"Waking up at this hour? Is this the typical sleep schedule of a great writer?"

"No, only a handsome writer like me would say that."

"Teacher Kitahara, you're so narcissistic..."

With nothing to do, Kitahara Makoto lay on the bed and chatted idly with Aragaki Yui.

He had no idea that the girl he was chatting with was already flushed with excitement...

……

……

Ginza, Tokyo.

In front of a shopping mall building.

Kitahara Makoto's eyes searched everywhere.

When I saw a cute girl wearing a red knitted hat and a beige scarf, I quickly went over to her.

"Teacher Kitahara, you've arrived."

Yui Aragaki's face was flushed, and she spoke excitedly.

"Yui, there's no need to be so polite. I'm only a year older than you. Just call me Kitahara or Makoto."

Kitahara Makoto's gaze swept over Aragaki Yui in front of him.

Today she was wearing a blue and white striped sweater on top, blue jeans on the bottom, a red knitted hat, and a beige scarf.

With a youthful and stylish demeanor, her small face, full of collagen, radiates a signature heartwarming smile.

It's like a bright lamp in a snowy winter night.

Yui Aragaki was secretly delighted and said with a blush.

"Then I'll call you Kitahara from now on."

"Whatever, let's go. Let's go eat first, I'm starving."

After saying that, Kitahara Makoto led Aragaki Yui into the mall.

An hour ago, he was texting with Yui Aragaki at home.

We chatted casually about spending the Lunar New Year alone at home.

Yui Aragaki then invited him out for a stroll and some sightseeing.

One person stays home eating takeout, while the other goes out to eat with their beautiful and future superstar wife.

This is clearly not a difficult decision.

Kitahara Makoto readily agreed.

I decided to go out and get some fresh air, eat some fresh food, and treat myself.

……

Kitahara Makoto led Aragaki Yui to a rather luxurious buffet restaurant with a beef theme.

I don't know why, but ever since I awakened my memories of my past life...

He clearly hadn't exercised at all, yet his physical condition was getting better and better.

Specifically, Mai Sakurajima and Megumi Kato are two weaklings who pose no threat to him whatsoever.

Instead, he always forced me to sign a whole bunch of unequal treaties.

This includes things like opera costume play, Hanfu play, school swimsuit play, kimono play...

The downside is that his appetite has increased significantly.

It's almost four or five times more than before.

They especially prefer high-protein meats.

Meals like beef and mutton are indispensable at every meal.

So now when eating out, Kitahara really likes buffets.

Those high-end restaurants are not only ridiculously expensive, but you also don't get a full meal.

Although this kind of high-end buffet restaurant is not cheap.

But the point is that you can eat your fill.

For him, that was a thousand times better than anything else.

While eating.

Because Yui Aragaki is a celebrity, she needs to maintain her figure, so she doesn't eat much.

Kitahara Makoto was eating most of the time.

On the table was a freshly made unlimited supply of tender veal steaks.

Before me lies my wife, a beautiful and innocent young woman.

Kitahara Makoto thoroughly enjoyed his first meal of the new year.

He felt this was a good omen.

This symbolizes that he will have a prosperous and successful year ahead!

……

When you go out to play, you'll naturally want to go shopping, watch movies, take photos...

After dinner, Kitahara Makoto accompanied Aragaki Yui shopping, where they bought a couple of clothes, went to see a movie, and strolled around some nearby attractions.

They played until after 8 p.m., when Aragaki's mother called to urge them to leave.

They reluctantly took Yui Aragaki home.

"Kitahara, see you next time."

"See you next time, Yui-chan."

At the foot of a residential building.

Watching the girl turn back every few steps, finally disappearing reluctantly at the top of the stairs.

Kitahara Shin let out a soft breath.

Then he turned and left gracefully.

The streetlights slowly lengthened his shadow; he seemed like a passerby, who merely glanced at the bustling world before quietly disappearing into the distance…

……

……

Winter vacation in Japan is very short.

There are only seven to eight days specifically for celebrating the New Year.

So on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Kasumigaoka Utaha and her family all returned home.

Then Kasumigaoka Utaha brought Kitahara Makoto a whole bunch of New Year's goods from his hometown.

Next up is Megumi Kato, Mai Sakurajima...

A huge pile of New Year's goods was stacked up at Kitahara Makoto's house.

Fortunately, his newly bought house is big enough.

Otherwise, there really wouldn't be anywhere to put it.

……

The tenth day of the first lunar month.

Opening Ceremony.

Kitahara Makoto spoke on stage as a student representative.

Some students had only heard of him by name but had never seen him in person.

Finally, I was able to see his true face.

And then they succumbed.

A melancholic appearance, a cool and aloof demeanor, deep-set eyes, and undeniable talent.

He was like a sickly but talented scholar who stepped out of ancient poems and prose.

Kitahara Shin's already exceptional popularity at school exploded like a powder keg.

According to his deskmate Masahiko's statistics.

since then.

Each time get out of class ends.

The number of girls passing by their classroom has increased threefold compared to the past.

Clearly, they were all just passing by 'accidentally' and then 'casually' stopped by to see Kitahara Makoto.

Chapter Thirty-One: Young man, I have high hopes for you.

With the start of the new school year.

Kitahara Makoto's life gradually returned to normal.

However, this calm did not last long.

And then it was disrupted again by something...

……

The twentieth day of the first lunar month.

snow.

In Tsukiji, Tokyo, there is an old ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurant) called "Shin-Kiraku".

A large group of media reporters gathered here despite the freezing cold.

Today is the selection meeting for the Akutagawa Prize, Japan's highest literary award.

The five nominees will compete here to determine the final winner.

A silver-white Mercedes pulled up in front of Xinxi Le.

After the car door opened, Kitahara Makoto and Yamamoto Kazuto stepped out of the car.

Because Kitahara Makoto still needs to get a driver's license and buy a car.

Therefore, for the time being, we can only trouble Yamamoto and Noboru to pick him up.

As soon as Kitahara Makoto stepped out, the surrounding media reporters immediately swarmed around him.

The flashbulbs kept going off.

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable with the scene, Kitahara Makoto could only walk quickly into the venue, ignoring the questions from the surrounding media reporters.

Enter the venue.

The air conditioner's warm air hit me.

The small first floor was already packed with people.
