I have pure love with them

"You're not refusing just to win the bet with me, are you?"

Izumi, who was about to continue folding paper cranes, slowly raised her head and looked at him with a subtle look after hearing what Hiroto Shioyama said.

"Am I such a boring person in your eyes?"

Hiroto Shioyama nodded.

"Then, I'll treat you to ramen. Will you accept Xiaodou and the others' invitation?"

"will not."

It was still the same answer, which made Hiroto Shioyama a little confused. Why was Izumi unwilling to join the e-sports team? His own level was obviously very high. Even if the levels of others were a little lower, wouldn't it be interesting to experience the atmosphere of the competition?

"Don't you want to add 'professional player' experience to your resume?"

Hiroto Shioyama thought that it would be very interesting to add this experience to his resume, and he could also brag about it to other people on the Internet in the future. Even if it was just participating in a competition, it would not be bad.

"After becoming a professional player, it will be much easier to find a girlfriend who likes games, right?"

After hearing Hiroto Shioyama's simple expectations, Izumi, who was sitting in the back seat, had a subtle look on his face, thinking that his idea might be a little difficult to realize.

"Even girls who watch the game will prefer players with better skills, right?"

"..."

Hiroto Shioyama, who was only a high-scoring passerby in terms of skills, froze on his face, sighed, and turned around to sit back.

Under Quan's blow, he no longer had the desire to continue speaking.

After school in the afternoon, Izumi followed Inatsuki Nozomi and his group to "Fox One", which is the Inatsuki family's e-sports store, and met Inatsuki Souta again in the office.

The two of them were sitting in the office, and the rest were locked outside. The fat Inazuki Sata looked at the boy sitting opposite him, with a somewhat conflicted expression on his face.

"Nozomi and Izumi have known each other for a long time, right? For Nozomi's sake—"

"You have to pay off the debt. To be honest, although I only come here occasionally, I can see that the entire store is in a loss, right? Even if the debt is paid off, it can't turn the store around. Whether it is worth 10 million yen is still a matter to be discussed. The reason why I appeared in front of Mr. Inatsuki is because of our friendship."

"..."

Inazuki Souta's expression seemed a little stiff. He did not expect that Izumi would notice so many details, and sweat was already appearing on his forehead.

"But... as long as Quan joins the team and we all get good results together, the problem can be alleviated a lot..."

"Then why don't I rely on my own abilities to form a better team and get a better ranking?"

Looking at Inatsuki Souta in front of him, Izumi's answer was already very implicit.

Until now, the opponent has not completely given up his gambling idea and thinks that he can defeat those professional players with just a few students.

More importantly, he was prepared to pay nothing and let people work for him for free.

"It seems that Mr. Inazuki still doesn't understand. Let's wait until the day when we are completely bankrupt and then continue today's conversation. By that time, it will be more beneficial to me."

He smiled at Inatsuki Sata, knowing that the other party still looked down on him and thought that he was just a student and that he could use the relationship between him and Inatsuki Mochi to control him. Izumi was too lazy to continue wasting time with him.

Seeing Izumi standing up, Inatsuki Sata couldn't help but try to keep her.

"Wait - Izumi-kun, aren't you Nozomi's friend?"

After hearing this, Quan didn't even want to stop. He walked straight to the door and opened it.

"..."

Looking at the few people standing at the office door who were obviously eavesdropping, Quan didn't say anything and left quietly.

After leaving 'Fox One', Quan took out his mobile phone, found the contact information of Nagasaki Soyo's mother, and then sent a message to her.

[I would like to ask Ms. Nagasaki for help with something. Is Ms. Nagasaki available now?]

344. Her eyes are filled with the desire to become a grandmother

"Why do you appear in front of me?"

The girl with brown hair and pigtails had an expression as if she had seen a pest.

"It doesn't matter if the expression is a little disgusted. In real life, I rarely see girls showing me such an expression. It feels fresh... Yes, it's such an expression of disgust."

Quan, who didn't care about the girl who showed dissatisfaction as soon as she saw him, didn't feel hurt at all. Instead, after noticing the girl, he followed her words and "fighted back" in his own way, with quite outstanding results.

"You, have already developed such an interest? Disgusting... And you haven't answered me why you are here."

"It's a public place, so it's not strange for anyone to appear here, right?"

Facing the question from Dongyun Huiming, Quan, who maintained a faint smile, gave an answer in a calm tone that did not satisfy the girl.

Dongyun Huiming frowned, looked at the young man in front of her, and opened her mouth to say something, but after staring at Quan for a while, she suppressed all the messy emotions back into her heart, then turned and left.

"Are you leaving now?"

Looking at Dongyun Huiming's leaving back, Quan felt a little disappointed.

He originally wanted to talk to the other party about painting, but this time, before he could even say a few words, the other party left directly, and he didn't have time to talk about painting again.

"I don't know when we will meet next time."

Dongyun Emina's figure merged into the crowd and soon disappeared in front of Quan. Quan watched Dongyun Emina's figure disappear and silently went to a coffee shop...

In the coffee shop, Izumi waited for a long time. Ms. Nagasaki, who seemed to have just finished work, hurried into the store to meet Izumi. Looking at Izumi sitting in the corner, Ms. Nagasaki's eyes were full of curiosity.

"I thought you would never contact me. Is there something wrong?"

Due to various reasons, Ms. Nagasaki did not ask Quan what was the matter in the text message just now. After knowing that he had something to talk to her about, she simply dealt with her own work and entrusted other tasks to her subordinates. Then she hurried out and came here to meet Quan.

Ms. Nagasaki would not have done this if he was just an ordinary boy she knew, but now that she knows about the relationship between her daughter and him, Ms. Nagasaki has to make some choices between work and family.

"Actually, there is something I would like to trouble Ms. Nagasaki with..."

Under Ms. Nagasaki's gaze, Izumi saw her. After a moment of silence, he slowly began to tell her about the Inatsuki family's e-sports store.

Originally, Izumi had no intention of involving Ms. Nagasaki in this matter, but after feeling the eccentric character and thoughts of Inatsuki Souta... Inatsuki Nozomi's father, Izumi felt that his previous considerations were too mild.

He originally wanted to make Inatsuki Sata more respectable and let him continue to manage the e-sports store after he invested the money, but now, he feels that Inatsuki Sata is not an ideal partner.

"So, what does Quan Jun want me to do now?"

After listening carefully to Quan's words, Ms. Nagasaki looked at the boy in front of her with some curiosity, and she became quite interested in what Quan contacted her and asked her to do today.

"If possible, I would like to ask Ms. Nagasaki to investigate the details of his debts, and then try to buy out the debts and become his creditor."

"..."

Ms. Nagasaki looked at the boy in front of her with a subtle expression, her brows slightly furrowed.

"Just now, you said that the debt of that person named Inazuki was about 10 million yen?"

"Ah."

"You want to buy this debt of about 10 million?"

"Ah."

Ms. Nagasaki was quite surprised as she looked at the young man in front of her. She already had some understanding of Chihaya's family situation and didn't think that a family like that could easily come up with 10 million yen.

Looking at Ms. Nagasaki who was lost in thought, Quan did not take the initiative to explain the source of his funds.

"Although the debt is 10 million, if the debt is transferred, some other expenses may need to be paid in the middle."

"I'm ready for this."

"I think it would be better to wait until he is in dire straits, and then buy his e-sports store at a relatively suitable price. Using the identity of a creditor will create more instability."

Ms. Nagasaki didn't know what Izumi was thinking when he made this request. She could indeed help Izumi do this, but from Izumi's point of view, it was hard for her to understand why Izumi would do such a thankless task. It would be better for him to just buy the e-sports store directly, and the cost might not even be as high as the money spent on purchasing the debt.

"Both options are fine, but he has no intention of selling the e-sports store at the moment, so he thinks it would be safer to buy the debt."

Ms. Nagasaki picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip.

"in a hurry?"

Putting down the coffee cup, she looked at the boy sitting opposite her and understood a little bit of what he was thinking.

"After all, this involves two friends I know... If it can be handled as soon as possible, it would be better to end it early. Inazuki Sata, I don't really care about the ending of that store manager."

After hearing Quan's explanation and answer, Ms. Nagasaki looked at him with deep eyes for a while, then nodded slightly.

"Well, I'll go back and investigate a little bit. If there's nothing wrong, I can help you."

"Well, please."

Ms. Nagasaki looked at the young man in front of her with a somewhat subtle mood. She was willing to agree to this matter mainly because of her daughter. If it weren't for Nagasaki Souyo, she would not have agreed to such a troublesome thing.

"Before we begin, I still have to remind you that regarding this 10 million yen debt, it is very likely that..."

"I see."

Before Ms. Nagasaki finished speaking, Quan understood what she meant and gave her answer.

"Ah."

Seeing that Izumi seemed to be mentally prepared, there was no need for Ms. Nagasaki to ask more questions. After talking with Izumi about the important things, she began to ask him about his relationship with Nagasaki Soyo and gave him some adult advice.

"Although you haven't met the age requirement yet, if you are ready to get married, you can always tell me and I will prepare an engagement ceremony for you."

"..."

For a moment, it was unclear whether Ms. Nagasaki was joking or serious. Izumi showed a 'shy' smile on her face, but did not give any positive answer.

345. I have always been Hermès

"Why did you come to my place again tonight?"

Aiyin, who was leaning against the head of Quan's bed and watching a beauty video, slowly raised her eyes, her gaze fell on Quan, and then slowly glanced at the dim night outside the window.

"You don't need a reason, right? It's just that you can't sleep alone in your room. It happens sometimes, right? You feel lonely."

Chihaya Aine herself didn't know whether Izumi was the same as herself. Sometimes when she was alone in the room, she would inexplicably feel lonely, and then her heart would feel empty, and she would become fragile all of a sudden.

She had just finished chatting with Takamatsu Deng, and suddenly had such a feeling in her heart. Then she remembered that Quan was in his room, so she took her IPOd and went to Quan's room.

When she entered Quan's room and saw Quan sitting in front of the computer, she felt a sense of security.

Loneliness and emptiness also disappeared in an instant.

Originally, she wanted to hug Quan from behind while she was watching the video, but after thinking about it, she felt that she was not young anymore and doing such a childish thing did not seem to be in line with her image, so she endured it and quietly walked to Quan's bed and started watching the beauty video she had not watched yet.
