After rebirth, I became Tokyo Sentimental

Chapter 43. Liars must swallow a thousand needles

Why do liars swallow a thousand needles?

Before, Hoshino Ryuka didn’t understand.

But now I understand.

After all, lies are deception, and deception must be punished eventually. There are many ways to punish this kind of thing. The proverb of swallowing a thousand needles is the experience of our predecessors.

"Today...are we still going out on a date?"

Hoshino Rika's voice was as soft as a mosquito's. She pursed her pale lips, her hair was rather messy and scattered around her shoulders. There was a complex look in her eyes as she looked at Harano Tsukasa.

"Forget it, you worked hard last night, just rest at home today." Yuanye Si said considerately.

Naturally, he stayed here last night.

Since Hoshino Ryuka has agreed to the deal, even if the final project has not yet been delivered, Harano Tsukasa has no reason to go back. After all, staying here can also check and verify the progress of the previous contract.

Hoshino Ryuka was really exhausted last night.

Well known.

It is difficult for people who have no similar experience or have less experience to accomplish this task. It is like an elderly person operating a computer for the first time. There is always a process of learning and accepting new things.

But Yuanye Si is also quite patient.

So I can only teach her slowly.

Moreover, after spending some time together from yesterday to now, the two of them didn't have many secrets, so the lies that Hoshino Ryuka had told before were easily exposed.

But Yuanye Si didn't say anything.

The more fake the ball, the faker the money.

If you fail to pay the price of being shot at, then the corresponding reward will be much less. This is purely a personal choice and there is no need to force it. After all, this process is a kind of enjoyment, and the purpose of Haraye Si's painstaking efforts to fulfill the woman's wishes is actually not this. What's more, Haraye Si believes that this day is not too far away. After all, greed will only increase.

"Yuan Ye-kun..."

Hoshino Ryuka's voice sounded again.

Yuan Ye Si turned his head and looked at her.

Compared to the usual image of a beautiful working woman with makeup on when she was seen in the district office, although she is not wearing any makeup now and most of the glaze on her lips has been rubbed off, she has a kind of messy beauty that is bullied.

It's just that when Ryuka Hoshino called out Harano Tsukasa's name softly beside the pillow at this moment, it wasn't like the whispers of lovers leaning against each other's faces after waking up in the morning, but rather a request for reward.

Under her eager gaze that she tried her best to hide but still couldn't conceal, Harano Tsukasa gave his own answer:

"If you don't want to continue working at the ward office, just tell me in advance and I'll arrange for you to be transferred to another department or unit. If you don't want to work anymore and want to open a store, that's fine too. Or if you want to just sit around and do nothing, that's fine too."

This is the basic remuneration provided by Yuanyesi.

It can also be called base salary.

Before yesterday, he was undoubtedly making empty promises when he said this, but now with his status as a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly, it is relatively easy to mobilize low-level civil servants by selling face and favors, and by pulling on his own tricks that others cannot see through. At least it won't be too difficult.

But it is obvious that Hoshino Ryuka is not very satisfied with this.

After all, being a local civil servant is not a very prestigious job, so what would be the big deal if they were transferred again?

At most I will have some free time at work.

But her goal was money.

So, not wanting to use this condition to repay her hard work last night, Ryuka Hoshino shook her head and said, "I have no plans to resign for the time being."

He simply ignored the matter of opening a store.

Owning a shop of her own was once Ryuka Hoshino’s dream, but that was a long time ago.

After learning that a friend of hers opened a clothing store in the Hong Kong area and was exhausted every day because she had to personally select and purchase products to save costs, and then return to the store and work hard on promotion. In the end, she did not make any money and instead lost all her savings, she immediately gave up the idea.

The current economic situation is so bad that it is difficult to do any serious business. Why stand when you can make money lying down?

of course.

How to lie down is also a key issue.

Finding the right person is the most important thing.

So even though she implicitly asked for money but was replaced by a transfer and opening of a shop, Hoshino Ryuka didn't feel very angry.

The reason lies in Harano Tsukasa's unclear but definitely not empty wallet, his energy that can help him mobilize his work, and his unique and irreplaceable trump card that he has not yet handed over.

"That depends on your arrangement. I respect your personal wishes." Yuan Ye Si answered with his eyes slightly closed.

"Um…"

"Any other trouble?"

"Can you mention it in life?"

"If it involves money, we'll talk about it later." "That's it."

"What would you like for breakfast?"

“I’m not hungry yet…”

Hoshino Rika had no habit of eating breakfast after leaving the campus. In addition, she brushed her teeth several times after last night's hard work. Now her mouth was filled with the minty taste of toothpaste and she had no appetite at all.

It was her first time lying in the same bed with a man. To say she was not used to it would be an understatement. What’s more, the change in status from a neatly dressed colleague to an almost naked partner made her feel extremely unreal.

Even worse than buying those luxury items yesterday.

Besides, besides swallowing a thousand needles last night because of lying, my chest still hurts a little.

Hoshino Ryuka turned her head to look at Harano Tsukasa.

I don’t know if it’s because of too much close contact, but Harano Tsukasa, who used to look ordinary in my eyes, has become much more pleasing to the eye, even a little bit handsome.

This is not the cool way of spending money by swiping a credit card.

It's about appearance and temperament.

"If I had observed him more before, maybe we could have had a normal relationship and wouldn't have had to be so passive..."

This idea suddenly came to Hoshino Ryuka.

But she quickly rejected it in her heart.

If Yuanye Si hadn't suddenly contacted me, and if he hadn't been so low-key and financially capable, I probably wouldn't have been interested.

But although I got in touch with it a little late.

But there is still a chance of change...

Just as Hoshino Ryuka was staring at Harano Tsukasa's face in a trance, secretly planning how to get rid of her current embarrassing identity and thinking that he was asleep, she heard Harano Tsukasa suddenly ask, "By the way, when was the last physical examination at the district office?"

“…It seems to be half a year ago.”

Hoshino Ryuka was startled and quickly collected her thoughts. After carefully recalling the situation, she said uncertainly.

"Why are you asking suddenly..."

She was just about to ask Yuan Ye Si why he suddenly brought up this matter, when she noticed that he had opened his eyes at some point and was staring at her.

Hoshino Ryuka's heart trembled.

I probably guessed what he was thinking.

“I also had my first time…”

"No wonder."

Yuanye Si murmured softly, then thought for a moment and said, "But to be on the safe side, you should go to the hospital to get a checkup for gynecological diseases. Some diseases have nothing to do with the first time."

"…I see."

Wishlist can only see wishes.

I can't see the body condition.

Unless the other party has some intention, Yuanye Si has no way to completely avoid such things.

As for the first time mentioned by Hoshino Ryuka...

Let's just assume she didn't lie.

Although it is the 21st century now and it is easy to recreate the membrane or modify the color, it is difficult for people who have never experienced it to fake the trembling in their heart the first time. Even if they have excellent acting skills, they will inevitably be exposed in front of a man who has truly experienced it.

Seeing that he still didn't trust her, Hoshino Ryuka finally couldn't help but cast a resentful look at him at this moment. However, this look didn't last long before it was forcibly interrupted by a hot body that suddenly approached.

But what gradually made her relax was that although Harano Tsukasa's face, which was close to her, exuded a strong masculine aura, he did not seem to intend to test her again, but looked at her and said:

"Xingye-san, it's almost time. I should go, but I may need to trouble you a little more before I go."

"Do... do it again?"

"Thank you for your help. I think you know that men always have this trouble in the morning. However, considering that you are already very tired, I don't want to take up too much of your rest time, so let's do the same as last night."

"Yuan Ye-kun..."

"what happened?"

"What is our relationship now?"

"Don't ask, just eat."

Nearly twenty minutes later, with a blushing face, Ryuka Hoshino covered her mouth and quickly ran into the bathroom.

　First of all, I would like to state that I will never abandon the novel, so you can rest assured to read it. The updates will be at around 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM respectively. Sometimes I will only update one chapter, because if I do, it will not disrupt the continuity of the whole chapter. Usually, there are around 5,000 to 6,000 words, and I usually update two chapters with around 6,000 to 7,000 words. I will try my best to update more quickly after the novel is put on the shelves. Also, I will cover newcomers, so I ask for your support!
