Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

Chapter 227 Invitation [5K4]

Six straight steps.

A Japanese restaurant in Bunkyo District.

"Shall we get straight to the point, uncle?"

Sitting on the tatami, Ayana Amamiya raised her eyebrows, looked at Ichiro Kitano across the table, and said this sentence very naturally.

"You don't even give your uncle time to reminisce about the past, do you?"

Beichen Ichiro complained with a somewhat amusing tone.

It should be said that in this respect, Ayana and her mother are exactly the same.

When he was little, his sister bullied him. When he grew up, he thought he could finally get revenge, but in the end he was still bullied by her. As long as his sister acted like a spoiled child, he was completely helpless.

It really proves the old saying that there is always someone stronger than you.

As a brother, he is destined to not be able to be cruel to his sister.

"As you know, the company is just starting out, and there are indeed many things to do."

The Saint Lady opened her mouth to explain.

"I understand that you are busy, but no matter how busy you are, you can't spare time for a meal, right?" Beichen Ichiro paused, "Or do you usually race against time when you eat with that kid Watanabe?"

"..."

Hearing this, Amamiya Ayana fell silent.

When she was having dinner with You, she was indeed "racing against time", but this "racing against time" was not the same as that other "racing against time".

"Isn't that the end? Give uncle some time, uncle promises..." Beichen Ichiro raised his watch to check the time, "It will be over on time at seven o'clock, and then you can go home, okay?"

He really wanted to have a good chat with his niece.

"……Um."

The Saint Lady hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed.

If I go back at 7 o'clock, I might get home around 7:30. By this time, they should have been back, so everything would be just right.

"There hasn't been any movement from the Amemiya family recently, right? I mean, they haven't bullied you, have they?" Beichen Ichiro picked up the chopsticks and gave his niece a look that said 'let's eat', "Let's talk while we eat."

"No."

Ayana Amamiya picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of tempura into her bowl.

Ever since the banquet at the Yasuhara family, both Amemiya Chiyo and Amemiya Masao's attitudes towards her have visibly improved.

Even though they were still hypocritical in their conversations, the sharp words in their speech had completely disappeared.

This is especially evident in Chiyo Amamiya.

The second was Teppei Amamiya. When they met by chance in the school corridor before, his eyes were always rebellious. But now, when they met by chance again, his eyes were visibly clearer.

In a sense, what You said was indeed correct.

Some people are just mean-spirited. The harsher you are to them, the more docile they will be. The nicer your attitude is, the more they will take advantage of you.

"That's good."

Ichiro Kitano picked up the serving chopsticks beside him and wanted to pick up some of the signature dish for Ayana Amamiya, but before he could raise his hand, he suddenly remembered Ayana's personality. She didn't like others picking up food for her.

And even if someone picked some food for her, she would most likely pick it out with her chopsticks.

Anyway, in the final analysis, he had never seen her eat the food that others picked for her obediently.

Considering this point alone, even Amamiya Masao before the banquet incident was no match for him.

"If I remember correctly, you've moved into Watanabe's house for a while now. How are you getting along with him? Are your pace of life compatible?"

He picked up his chopsticks again and started talking naturally.

"It's been a while, and we get along pretty well. I quite like living there. As for the pace of life... well, it's quite compatible. After all, we both go to bed early and get up early."

When talking about life at Mr. Troll's house, Amamiya Ayana suddenly became interested. Not only did her voice become louder, but she also spoke with great excitement.

"..."

Listening to his niece's story, Beichen Ichiro felt inexplicably jealous.

But soon, he suppressed this feeling.

He knew very well what kind of person Watanabe was, and the latter had proved through his actions that he had the ability to protect Ayana.

From an emotional point of view, he was eager for Watanabe and Ayana to get married as soon as possible.

This way, he can be completely relieved.

"I heard from Kuriyama that he has the habit of doing morning exercises every morning. Is this true?"

Kitano Ichiro raised his eyebrows and looked at Amemiya Ayana, then lowered his head again, picked up the shrimp in the bowl and put it into his mouth.

"It's true." Amamiya Ayana nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer, "He...it's not an exaggeration to say that he will not be deterred by rain or shine. He will only consider taking a break when the weather is extremely bad.

"However, he would choose to train at home without hesitation more often.

"After all, the house we live in now has a fitness room."

When she was looking at houses, she paid special attention to this and asked for his opinion.

But she really didn't expect that the gym would be used so quickly, or even so frequently.

“I started to look at him with a new eye.”

There was a hint of emotion in Beichen Ichiro's voice.

It is no exaggeration to say that among the people he knows, those who can achieve this level of persistence can be counted on one hand.

People are lazy, and most people can overcome their laziness in a short period of time, but if they treat it as a long-term task, not many people can persist from beginning to end.

If Watanabe Yuma can persist for ten years, then the previous evaluation of his writing may have to be reviewed.

"He has many advantages. As for his disadvantages... well, he is not romantic, but the rest is okay."

Amamiya Ayana said this.

To be honest, apart from his sometimes dull personality, You is a pretty perfect person.

At least that's how she saw it.

"If your classmates in school heard this, their hopes would be shattered."

Beichen Ichiro pursed his lips and teased Amamiya Ayana.

A girl who is always known for her sense of distance, when mentioning a boy, her eyes are full of tenderness and affection. To be honest, this is really enviable.

"So what? I'm not the same kind of person as them."

Amamiya Ayana said this nonchalantly.

For her now, there are only two most important things: one is revenge on the Amemiya family, and the other is living with Yu.

There is no order of priority between the two. Of course, if she had to choose, she would probably choose the latter.

“Is this the power of love?”

Ichiro Kitano made a little joke.

"You could say that."

Even though she knew her uncle was teasing her, the Saint Lady still nodded and gave an affirmative answer.

Because for her, that's exactly what it was.

"Okay, since you've said that, I won't say much. Now, let's get back to the topic." Beichen Ichiro coughed lightly and straightened his expression. "It's about Watanabe's new book."

"What happened to his new book?"

Amamiya Ayana frowned, and her tone suddenly became tense.

"Don't be nervous. With the current trend, it's inevitable that his new book will be a big hit. It's just that the book club is considering the issue of a book signing event."

Beichen Ichiro quickly explained.

Well, now he was sure.

The Ayana Amamiya who once put profit first has disappeared, and in her place is the Ayana Amamiya who puts Watanabe first.

"Book signing event?" Amamiya Ayana relaxed. "You should talk to him about this. Why are you talking to me about this?"

She would not interfere with his decision.

"Because you are his family member, and you are the only one who can convince him."

Beichen Ichiro gave the answer without thinking.

Take Watanabe's public appearance at the Naoki Award as an example. His attitude was quite ambiguous before. But ever since he learned about the things behind his niece, his attitude has changed, and it can be said that he has become visibly positive.

"If that's the case, uncle, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. He's the one who's in charge now."

Amamiya Ayana made a face and said this in a joking tone.

There are some things she can't say so clearly, and a scale like this is just right.

"...Well, alright." Beichen Ichiro shook his head, "Then there is another matter, it's about your Yuuna Company."

"Please tell me."

When this was mentioned, Amamiya Ayana sat up straight and looked as if she was listening attentively.

"Has the order from Anyuan been delivered?"

"Yes."

"So how are your orders now?"

"It's not so bad."

"What I mean is that my uncle happens to know someone here, and they have orders in need."

Beichen Ichiro asked this question very seriously.

Akiba Bookstore is backed by Akiba Broadcasting Co., Ltd. In other words, it has many channels and ways at its disposal.

"Can you arrange a meeting for us?"

Amemiya Ayana didn't hesitate and met her uncle's gaze directly.

Yuna Company needs to develop, so naturally it needs more orders.

After the order from the Yasuhara family, according to Sister Risa, the next order may have to wait until January next year.

"Of course, I had planned to do that."

Ichiro Kitano nodded, signaling Amamiya Ayana to stay calm.

"Then..." He lowered his voice, "Do you want to go back to Beichen's house for the New Year? Your grandpa misses you very much."

For various reasons, Ayana was restricted from returning to Beichen's house.

But now, this limitation has been broken with Watanabe's slap.

She now wants to come back to celebrate the New Year, and all she has to do is call the driver.

"January is still a long way off, isn't it? We'll talk about this then." Amamiya Ayana evaded the question.

This year, she plans to spend the New Year in You's hometown.

Just like Ryoko said, we have to get familiar with the place first, right?
"Okay, we'll talk about it then."

Beichen Ichiro naturally understood what his niece meant, but he didn't point it out. He just picked up the chopsticks and asked her to start eating.

"Eat."

They had finished talking about everything they needed to talk about, and he was indeed hungry.

"Ah."

Amemiya Ayana nodded and picked up her chopsticks without hesitation.

“How did you feel about the movie today?”

After passing the most crowded intersection, Hamabe Ryoko turned around and started talking to Watanabe Yuu who was standing beside her.

"Honestly, I think it's a little off."

Watanabe Yu thought about it and decided to be honest.

Of course, another reason was that his intuition told him that Ryoko should feel the same way.

"Yes, I also think it's a little off." Hamabe Ryoko pursed her lips and shook the hand she was holding with Watanabe Yuu in a somewhat unhappy manner. "At the end of the movie, the heroine died and the hero went crazy. This ending is really a bit too exaggerated."

It’s not that she can’t accept tragedy, she just can’t accept tragedy for the sake of tragedy.

The male protagonist clearly had the opportunity to save the female protagonist, but he missed it because of a small thing.

Yes, this can be understood as being lifelike enough, but it can also be said to be a plot-killing move.

"It says on the poster that it's a romantic movie, and it's indeed a romantic movie." Watanabe Yu shrugged, "It's just that the price of this love is a bit too high."

It is said that movies are always kind, bringing together people who would never meet.

This feature is completely absent in this movie. The main theme is that it is sweet at first, then bitter, and then it continues to be bitter.

"The only thing that matches the trailer is the first thirty minutes of the plot."

Hamabe Ryoko was somewhat indignant.

She shouldn't have believed those reviews and watched what they said was the best literary and artistic romance movie of the year.

To be honest, it would be better to watch anime movies in the same schedule.

At least the latter is a true case-solving story, and does have a love storyline.

"Look at it in a positive way, at least he didn't cram candy for an hour and a half into the two-hour schedule and then smash all of it in the last half hour."

Watanabe Yu gently scratched Ryoko's palm, then raised his eyebrows and looked at the intersection in the distance.

The city sky was dyed by the setting sun, covered with a layer of golden gauze. In front of the crosswalk, the front windshields of cars waiting for the traffic lights were shining with dazzling light.

As the golden spots of light flowed, time in this steel forest seemed to slow down all of a sudden.

"Is there really someone so perverted?"

Ryoko Hamabe's left eyelid twitched. As far as she could remember, no director had ever done this seriously.

"some."

Watanabe Yu nodded, otherwise how could Eri die.

"...Anyway, Yuu, you shouldn't be like this, right?"

To be on the safe side, Hamabe Ryoko still asked a question.

"I don't think so."

Watanabe Yu nodded very seriously.

He is not the kind of person who believes that there is no classic without tragedy.

If there is a happy ending, he will try his best to choose happy ending.

"That's good - did you think I would say that? No way! If I remember correctly, the ending of Norwegian Wood is also a pity."

Hamabe Ryoko snorted, and glared at him coquettishly with her lively eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

“That is force majeure.”

Watanabe Yu spread his hands.

What could he do? He had no solution.

"I'll take it seriously." Hamabe Ryoko blinked, but didn't continue to argue. Instead, she changed the subject, "What about your down jacket?"

They did go shopping this afternoon, and did look at down jackets in advance.

But in the end, he bought a lot of pieces for her and Ayana, but he didn't buy anything.

——Her figure is generally similar to Ayana’s, so if she wears something that fits her, Ayana will also wear it.

"Come again next time."

Watanabe Yu's answer was concise and to the point.

This afternoon he also experienced the joy of shopping like the girls. When he was directing Ryoko to change clothes, he inexplicably felt like a member of the Nuannuan Party.

"Okay, let's come back next time."

Hearing his words, Hamabe Ryoko was stunned at first, then immediately nodded heavily.

Let’s meet again next time (crossed out)
Let’s go on a date together next time (√)
Before they knew it, they had passed the intersection and were at the last section of the commercial street.

"Well, how are you going to spend the New Year this year?"

Watanabe Yu thought about it and finally asked this question.

Although the parents had a very carefree summer vacation, they still stayed at home during the New Year.

"I also can."

Ryoko Hamabe paused, but after hesitating for a long time, she still didn't say that.

She can't say, I would rather go to your hometown.

If possible, she would like to stay in his hometown for a while longer, get familiar with his uncles and aunts, and then improve their favorability. It would be best if she could leave a very good impression on them.

"Then, come home with me?"

Watanabe Yuu asked tentatively.

He suddenly thought of this.

Japan's New Year is from January 1st to 1rd, and if you calculate the time, it seems to be just around the corner.

According to Sister Risa, Chengnan Private High School will also have a seven-day holiday at that time, so the time for the trip back and forth is more than enough and ample.

"May I?"

nice!

Although she was already very happy, Hamabe Ryoko decided to be on the safe side and ask again.

Following You home depends on what You thinks, and on what your uncle and aunt thinks.

"What else?" Watanabe Yu paused, then said, "I'll ask Ayana later."

If possible, he didn't want Ayana to go back to the Amemiya family that only cared about profit.

In his mind, that place had long been equated with purgatory.

A home should have all the attributes, but it has none of them, only a cold exchange of interests.

It's really boring.

"She would certainly like to."

Hamabe Ryoko gave the answer on behalf of Amemiya Ayana.

Based on her understanding of the Saint Lady, the latter would definitely be very willing.

Even when the New Year is approaching, even if Yu doesn't ask, Ayana will take the initiative to ask.

"Yeah, anyway, I still have to ask her when the time comes." Watanabe Yuu raised his eyebrows, stopped, and his eyes fell on the jewelry store on the side of the road, "Do you want to go shopping?"

"Forget it, let's do it another day."

After taking a look at the bright jewelry store, Hamabe Ryoko shook her head.

Firstly, today's consumption has been very high. Although the company is on the right track, no one knows whether it will encounter any accidents. It is always a good idea to save more money.

Besides, her mind was no longer here.

All she wanted now was to go home quickly and wait for night to fall.

Then sneak into his room quietly.

God knows where he learned that method, pressing on his lower abdomen.

But I have to say, it was really comfortable.

During the whole process, she will become defenseless and can only cooperate with him passively.

"Yu."

"Ok?"

"You have to hand in your homework tonight."

Hamabe Ryoko pursed her red lips and looked away as if escaping, her cold voice now containing a hint of shyness and invitation.

She seemed to be getting stiff too.

It's like there's not a lot of variety.

"..."

Subconsciously, Watanabe Yu stopped and looked at her beside him.

But hidden by her short hair, he couldn't see her expression at the moment.

All you can see is the cool profile stained with a layer of rose red, and the slender neck and small earlobes stained with cherry pink.

For no reason, an idea came to him.

In the long run, strengthening the prison system (advanced level) is urgent.

If the Saint Lady is like this...

hiss.

"Let's go!"

As if she felt embarrassed by his gaze, Hamabe Ryoko said something coquettishly, took his hand and started walking.

Under the wine-like golden-red sunset glow, her little face was even more flushed.
