After rebirth, I became Tokyo Sentimental

Chapter 21 21. Can't I be loyal without dating?
The next day, the sky was blue and clear, as clean as if it had been wiped clean. Long and straight cloud contrails came into view, but I didn't see any plane, so I guess it had just flown past not long ago.

Yuanye Si slept until he woke up naturally.

The biological clock is a wonderful thing.

Unless one is extremely tired, a few days of short physiological adjustments or constantly giving oneself psychological hints will work. At least in the past two days, without setting the alarm and without any pressure, Harano Tsukasa woke up much later than usual.

Just as he leaned against the head of the bed to dispel the drowsiness and picked up the mobile phone on the cabinet to check the time, countless notification boxes came into view.

Twenty or so missed calls.

More than thirty unread messages on Line.

All because he set the phone to mute so he didn't receive it.

Harano Tsukasa raised his eyebrows, unlocked the screen and looked carefully, only to find that the messages on Line were all sent by colleagues, basically asking him why he didn't go to work today. In particular, Ryouta Takizawa and Genji Hiraga sent the most messages, accounting for more than half.

"Yuan Ye, you really aren't coming to work? The section chief came over to ask me just now, and I almost got scared off my head!"

"Senior, please reply if you see this."

"You're not really drawing a book, are you?"

"Harano-san, why didn't you come today?"

"What's going on, Harano-kun? Don't be angry about Hoshino-san. Come to work. I can take you to explain the whole thing to the section chief later."

In addition to Ryouta Takizawa and Genji Hiraga, there were messages from other colleagues, but only a few.

He got up, threw off the quilt, put on a shirt and pants, went to the bathroom and started brushing his teeth. While brushing, he replied to messages with one hand. At the same time, he also saw that the majority of the missed calls were from Suzumiya Saka herself.

Of course the district office has a contact list.

Even though they didn't have his contact information on messaging apps and had never called, it was easy for Suzumiya Saka to find his contact information as his superior.

After turning off the mute, Harano Si rinsed his mouth, put the toothbrush back in its place, and let the water from the faucet run.

"Ring ring ring——"

The screen instantly switched to the call interface.

It's Suzumiya Saka's call.

It seems that this ice beauty's personality is really cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and she is also particularly anxious in contrast.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made more than a dozen calls in a row.

Yuan Ye Si hesitated for a moment, and finally pressed the answer button and the hands-free button, then put the phone on the shelf next to the sink, scooped up a handful of water to wash his face and said, "Good morning."

"You still know how to answer the phone?"

Even without seeing her face, I could still hear her suppressed anger from the cold voice coming from the microphone.

"what happened?"

Harano Tsukasa raised his head and wiped his face with a towel.

Hearing his nonchalant tone, Suzumiya Saka was silent for two seconds on the other end of the phone, and asked with gritted teeth: "Why don't you come to work?"

"Didn't I submit my resignation letter in the office last week?" Harano Si asked back.

"I didn't approve it."

"Then I will be forced to resign without any compensation or compensation, and my social security will also be frozen."

Yuanye Si turned on the faucet and said simply.

Suzumiya Saka on the other end of the phone couldn't help but hold her breath when she heard that, and then she exploded instantly like a ignited gunpowder barrel, and even her voice rose several tones: "Just because I didn't agree to date you!?"

"No." Yuan Ye Si wiped his face.

"What is that!?" Suzumiya Saka's voice was like the sudden eruption of hot magma, and her anger rose.

With her tone, there was no need to turn on the hands-free mode. After wiping his hands, Yuan Ye Si picked up the phone and said as he walked, "I have thought about it carefully these days. I was indeed abrupt before."

"and then?"

"There's really no match between us."

Returning to the bedroom, throwing his phone on the bed, Harano Tsukasa put on his shirt and tie and explained, "In terms of practical conditions, even if I don't know the section chief's family background, my colleagues always gossip about you, and they probably know that you come from a good family. In terms of status and position, I am indeed not worthy of you. Blindly pestering you will not only cause you trouble, but also waste my time. I am an adult, and I shouldn't waste our lives in this way."

To be fair, if Wish List hadn't seen through Suzumiya Saka's weaknesses, given Harano Tsukasa's current conditions, it would not be worth her even a second glance.

But now I feel like I'm being pursued. It's not just a feeling, it's basically the fact.

However, Harano Tsukasa would not feel secretly delighted or elated because he was pursued by this icy beauty boss, because he knew that it would be fine if he satisfied someone like Suzumiya Saka who had special desires in her heart, but if he did not satisfy them, she would be tripped up and might lose more than she gained.

Moreover, after a short period of getting along, it seems that Suzumiya Saka, who seems to be experienced, is not as complicated as she originally thought, but this remains doubtful for the time being.

No matter what, Yuanye Si did take a lot of advantage from the other party. Saying this now would inevitably make him look like a scumbag, but he was originally in ruins and was not afraid of the house collapsing, and he was even less willing to act on his emotions.

Dozens of seconds later, Suzumiya Saka on the other end of the phone also completely digested what he had just said: "So what you mean is... you are going to give up pursuing me?"

“That’s probably the understanding.”

Yuan Ye Si gave an affirmative answer.

"Scum... bastard..."

Suzumiya Saka angrily scolded him and said through gritted teeth, "Stop giving me these high-sounding reasons and excuses. To put it bluntly, isn't it just that you fell in love too quickly and wanted to run away after taking advantage of someone else?"

“I just don’t want to hold up everybody.”

"Can't you be loyal without dating?"

"The section chief wants me to be a backup?"

"Which spare tire can touch..."

The subconscious speech in the microphone stopped abruptly.

It seems like something has been said about a sensitive area.

After a brief silence of two seconds, she asked, "I just want to ask you one question. Are you really not coming to work anymore?"

"Yes."

"You wait!"

"and many more."

"What, are you scared?"

"No, I have something to tell you."

"Say!"

Harano Tsukasa organized his words and then slowly said, "After returning from Takashimaya yesterday, your friend Miss Kurosaki followed me all the way to my house. We were alone together for about half an hour yesterday."

As soon as the words were spoken, silence fell.

If he hadn't been able to barely hear Suzumiya Saka's breathing, he would have felt that she was dead.

Surprisingly.

Suzumiya Saka was not angry.

On the contrary, the topic that Yuan Ye Si suddenly brought up actually eased her anxious and angry mood, and even her voice became much calmer.

"What... did you do?"

"I didn't do anything. Miss Kurosaki said she wanted to test me for you, so she deliberately created some ambiguous scenes, as if to test whether I was loyal to you. After the test, she left."

"How... ambiguous are you?"

"Sitting close, well, I can see some of the things a normal man would want to see, that's about it."

"So...what are the results of the test?"

"I failed."

"asshole!!!"

After receiving such a straightforward answer from Harano Tsukasa, Suzumiya Saka, who had originally calmed down, instantly became furious. She cursed angrily and hung up the phone.

Obviously, she didn't get the answer she wanted.

Looking at the phone that had automatically switched to the main interface after the call was hung up, Harano Tsukasa thought for a moment, then added Suzumiya Saka's number to the blacklist, and for the time being he didn't plan to touch this tree that could explode at any time.

The focus now is on Miss Money's big plan.

In this regard, Yuanye Si gradually began to think about it.
