Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

Chapter 216 Interview [4K1]

It might be because the performances of Yu Watanabe and Yuki Hayakawa were so outstanding that they set a good start for Class C of Grade 1, or it might be because the original project proposal was already far ahead.

In short, in the next two days, the business of Class C of Grade 1 experienced one peak after another.

To say that it is getting better and better is no exaggeration.

Coupled with the word-of-mouth reputation, long queues would form outside the classroom of Class C of Grade 1 at mealtime, and the popularity of the restaurant was exaggerated.

From the perspective of teachers and students at Chengnan Private High School, the level of activity is so busy that it has become like an old brand store on a weekend.

But, it's just a prototype.

One is professional, and the other is only available during the event period. If you really compare them, there is definitely a big gap.

But this is the truth. In the eyes of the actual participants, the situation is not the same.

There is a small group of students who are somewhat jealous of the booming business of Class C.

We all run the same shop, why is your business so good? Why is my business so bad?

If the school festival didn't last only three days, there would probably be a few people who would have some bad intentions.

As for Class A, who had made harsh remarks before the school festival, they were almost nowhere to be found.

Especially compared with the crowded Class C of Grade 1, the contrast is too strong.

Take the time when customers come in as an example. In the huge classroom of Class A, there are either no customers at all or only one or two customers scattered around.

As for other classes that did not set goals, the situation was better.

In most classes, when guests arrive, the classroom is not completely full, but at least one-third of the students are there.

However, these classes were not very satisfied with the results.

Logically speaking, this is not bad, after all, not everyone has a professional shop at home.

But the most feared thing in everything is comparison.

When everyone only gets 60 points, everyone can comfort themselves and look at it in an open-minded way.

After all, no one did the best, everyone got 60 points.

But what if at this moment, suddenly, someone took out a paper with 100 points.

Then, the nature of things changes.

Many people's hearts can no longer remain calm.

Even if the person who scored 100 points said nothing, and was not arrogant, but was very humble, everyone's mood would be like an overturned bottle of five flavors, sour but also complicated.

As for everyone, the only good thing the school did was probably to move the awards ceremony for the school festival to the Monday of the following week.

By the way, another good thing is that there is no homework this week.

Although the two-day holiday is not long, it is enough for everyone to forget their worries.

After all, for high school students who can't drink, nothing is more relaxing than a weekend without homework.

However, for Yu Watanabe, a proper weekend off is often a luxury.

For example, right now.

After getting off the taxi, Watanabe You walked quickly towards the main entrance of Latte Café.

According to Aunt Shangzi, he will complete today's interview here.

"Hello sir, do you have an appointment?"

Before Watanabe Yu could ask, the waitress with short, neat hair standing at the door came forward to greet him.

She was wearing a white shirt with a black vest over it, crisp black trousers on the lower body, and a pair of small high heels on her feet.

Judging from the clothes alone, it looks more like the uniform of an executive of a large company than a uniform of a cafe waiter.

But it is not without benefits.

At least it does look much more capable.

"Yes, Ms. Matsushima has already reserved a seat."

Watanabe Yuu gave the name of that person.

After talking about this with Naoko Hayakawa that day, he specifically went to look up Matsushima Rie's experience.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he doesn't trust Naoko Hayakawa, it's just a small habit of his.

Before crossing, before formally talking to the customer, if there is a channel, he will usually take the initiative to understand the customer's preferences and past experiences, and formulate a conversation strategy based on this.

Doing so may seem to increase the workload in private, but in fact it greatly reduces the ineffective time during conversations.

Because I have some understanding of him, most of the things I say can cater to his preferences.

It was precisely because of this trick that his subsequent performance increased so rapidly and he was able to be promoted out of turn.

"Oh, you are Ms. Matsushima's guest, please follow me."

Hearing this, a flash of sudden realization flashed across the waitress's eyes. Then she bowed slightly respectfully, turned around, stretched out her hand towards the door, and motioned Watanabe Yu to follow her.

"Ah."

Watanabe You responded and followed her.

Led by the waitress, he walked into the lobby of this membership-only coffee shop, which required reservations in advance.

After several turns and getting on the elevator, she brought him to an extremely secluded window seat.

"Ms. Matsushima, your guest has arrived."

The waitress stepped aside, lowered her head and bowed slightly.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Matsushima Rie responded, then stood up and looked at Watanabe Yu.

"Watanabe, you're welcome. Take a seat first. What would you like to drink?"

She waved to him and greeted him naturally.

Her voice was very gentle and she had a very friendly smile on her face.

At this moment, this music critic, who is known for his sharp words, did not seem to be greeting a stranger he met for the first time, but rather an old friend he had known for a long time.

"..."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Watanabe Yu's eyes.

From the information he found, this music critic named Matsushima Rie was known for her sharp words.

She has pointed out the shortcomings of many singers.

Although many singers have said that the music critic would be much gentler during interviews, judging from the written expressions, he is probably not that "gentle".

Yes, they did meet once on the day of the school festival.

But considering her sharp and incisive style in criticizing those singers, such a one-time encounter would probably not be enough to make her so gentle.

However, he had no intention of refusing her kindness.

It is said that you should not hit someone who smiles at you, let alone when that person is just nice to you.

In short, just think of it as Aunt Shangzi's face fruit being activated.

"An iced coffee, please."

After nodding to Matsushima Rie, he naturally sat next to Hayakawa Yuki.

Yuki had told him early this morning that she would come as well.

"Okay, please wait a moment, we'll be there soon."

The waitress nodded slightly, turned around, and left without any hesitation.

"Okay, let me introduce you. This is Auntie Li Hui, a well-known music critic in the industry. She has reviewed many well-known songs, all of which have been recognized by the singers themselves."

Seeing that the outsiders had left, Hayakawa Yuki was no longer silent. She naturally patted the back of Watanabe Yu's hand and introduced him to Matsushima Rie.

Yes, Aunt Rie mentioned that she had met Watanabe Yu once and they even chatted for a few minutes.

But when introducing someone at this time, you can pretend not to know this.

"Hello, Ms. Matsushima."

Watanabe Yu did not take advantage of the situation and consciously used a more polite title.

He stood up and extended his hand to Matsushima Rie in front of him.

"Hello, Watanabe, you can just call me Aunt Rie like Yuki did."

Hearing this, Matsushima Rie was stunned at first, then she also stretched out her hand.

She really hadn't thought that Watanabe Yu would actually call her that. In her experience, in this circle, there are quite a lot of people who are willing to climb up through connections. It can even be said that even if there are no connections, many people can shamelessly try to make connections.

There are very few people like Watanabe Yu, who clearly stated that they have a relationship but still maintained their original intention and treated others politely.

The two of them shook hands gently.

then……

She looked at him again in surprise.

The young man shook hands with her with an empty hand.

Wow, that’s interesting.

After sighing in her heart, she calmly withdrew her hand and sat down opposite the two young men.

Now, she understood a little.

Why was Watanabe Yu liked and even pursued by those two, no, three if Yuki was included, such dazzling girls?

If she had a young man who was so mature and excellent in all aspects by her side when she was young, she would definitely...

Well, let’s not say such things that sound like an old cow eating young grass.

"Cough cough."

Matsushima Rie coughed lightly, then raised her eyes and looked at Watanabe Yu.

"Then I won't waste any more time talking, Mr. Jay. How about we get straight to the point?"

In fact, according to her original plan, she wanted to chat with Jay again, get closer to each other, and then open the topic in a natural way.

This is also her usual interview mode.
Without such strong vigilance, many interview questions can get a relatively truthful answer.
——That is the answer that is more eye-catching.

But right now, this approach doesn't seem to work.

Judging from the small details just now, Jay is the kind of person who keeps public and private matters separate.

Therefore, it would be more appropriate to leave the casual chat for later.

"no problem."

Watanabe Yu nodded and gave an affirmative answer. At the same time, he adjusted his sitting posture and put on a serious look as if he was listening attentively.

That's what he originally thought. If he were asked to chat about family matters for half a day, he would definitely not be able to stand it.

The main thing is that Matsushima Rie's identity is there. It's not right for him to answer some questions, and it's not right for him not to answer them.

"Ok, let me make it clear in advance that this is a text interview. It will not be recorded or videotaped, so you can relax."

Matsushima Rie emphasized it first, then took out paper and pen.

"Ah."

Watanabe You responded and sat down more relaxed, but the tension in his heart remained.

To put things in perspective, he has always been like this.

"So, the first question is..."

Matsushima Rie began today's interview in a chatty tone.

*
Watanabe house, in the living room.

"You is out again..."

Hamabe Ryoko leaned back on the couch and murmured softly.

She looked listless, like a puppy left at home.

"Uh-huh, he's going to be interviewed."

Ayana Amamiya, who was sitting next to her, naturally took up the conversation.

Compared to the listless Hamabe Ryoko, her condition is actually pretty good.

After all, in her opinion, this is normal.

As time goes by, Mr. Troll's life will definitely become busier and busier.

Putting aside the music aspect, after a while, news about new books from Akiba Books will come out again.

Just like what he said, life is a series of problems. When you solve one problem, the next one will pop up right after it.

"Did he say how long it would take?"

Hamabe Ryoko turned her head and looked at the Saint Lady eagerly.

"No." Amamiya Ayana picked up the TV remote and turned on the TV. "Didn't he tell you when we were practicing this morning?"

"No."

Hamabe Ryoko shook her head.

"You didn't ask?"

The Saint Lady turned her head and met Ryoko's pitiful eyes.

For some reason, she suddenly had the urge to touch her face.

"No."

"Then why do you think I know that?"

Ayana Amamiya was a little amused and helpless.

"I think he'll tell you."

Hamabe Ryoko withdrew her gaze and pursed her lips.

"That's because you don't understand Mr. Troll enough. For things like this, he usually won't tell you unless you ask. What's more, he went out in the morning. Generally speaking, he will only tell you an approximate time to go home if he goes out in the afternoon."

While Amamiya Ayana was explaining what she knew, she suddenly remembered something else.

"Ryoko, can I ask you a question?"

She turned her head again and looked at Hamabe Ryoko.

"Hmm, this is so annoying!" Hamabe Ryoko stretched her body and groaned, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."

The rare day off when I didn't have to work was wasted like this.

"If, I mean if, his future development requires some help from others, what would you think?"

Amamiya Ayana considered her words and finally asked this question.

"what?"

After the words fell, Hamabe Ryoko was stunned.

"What do you mean, what would I think?"

She didn't quite get what the Saint Lady meant.

"That's what it means literally, so answer me first, what do you think?"

Amemiya Ayana did not explain, but just looked at Hamabe Ryoko silently.

Her question has deep meaning.

For her, she could accept it, even if she was not willing to do so in her heart.

But she also has a bottom line. At least, the other party must get her approval.

For example, Yuki.

"I don't think so, do I? If he needs help, then he needs it. Can I stop him?"

Hamabe Ryoko shook her head, looking like she was asking, "What kind of question are you asking?"

Obviously, she didn't get the implication of Amamiya Ayana's words.

"That's it..."

Seeing that Ryoko didn't seem to understand, Amamiya Ayana didn't say anything, but just nodded thoughtfully.

There's no rush to talk to Ryoko about this later.

Moreover, compared to this kind of thing, there are more important things waiting to be dealt with right now.

It's already imminent!

"So, what to eat for lunch? I can't think of it."

She changed the subject and brought up this matter.

Two-in-one, I planned to go to bed early last night, but guess what, BYD had a power outage, and I almost got dehydrated due to sweating.

I will update early tomorrow, see you all tomorrow!
