How rude, we are pure love!

Qingye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the vast blue sky outside and the scenery of the sea and the river, and fell into deep thought.

He was recalling his experiences of the past year. Although the results of literary publishing were much better than he had imagined, the money he currently earned was far less than what he had earned from light novels. One reason was that the efficiency of physical literature was very poor. It took more than half a year to review, publish, and promote it. The other reason was that classic works still needed time to settle, and the growth rate was relatively slow.

Even so, his work has already become the best-selling Akutagawa Prize-winning work in recent years, which shows the overall decline of literature.

However, his social status has indeed been elevated. Wherever he goes out, people have to bow their heads and address him as "Teacher". Moreover, he has successfully infiltrated a circle that is unique to the literary world and closely related to the political world. These are all intangible assets.

If he adds another zero to his current sales volume, then those top universities that ordinary people dream of will probably rush to award him various degrees.

"I feel like I'm still missing an opportunity... Anyway, once my grades get better, I'll release the light novel."

Qingye touched his chin. He had already finished copying the light novels, but he still waited patiently until he won the literary award. This involves a question of perception. If you have literary achievements first, others will only make fun of you for not doing your job properly. But if you have light novels first, it is inevitable that people will look at you with tinted glasses. This is the social atmosphere.

Just as he was planning his route, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Qingye glanced at the number and pressed the answer button.

"Teacher Qingye, have you had a good rest? There is a book signing event today..."

*

In the distant and bustling Tokyo, the glass of the floor-to-ceiling mirror reflects a pure beauty.

The blue-haired girl in a skirt stood sideways, her skin was whiter than snow, her figure was slim, and her waist was slender and soft.

"Hmm... I really look like a senior in high school. As expected of me who has been starving for a year, my figure is really perfect!"

Ba Naijian kept changing various postures, with a look of intoxication on his face.

With such incredible stats, it wouldn't be easy to control a junior senior! ?

Thinking of this, the girl stopped being self-admiring and decided to take action.

After arriving in the new world, what came to her mind was not the heavy academic workload on her shoulders, nor the human instinctive desire for delicious food, but...

Various images emerged from the girl's mind: a smiling Qingye, a frowning Qingye, a Qingye who was shocked, confused, yet delighted to see her...

In the end, only a pure thought remained.

Want to see him.

Even though they hadn't actually been apart for long, she didn't care. Qingye had secretly spent a year in this world! So they hadn't seen each other for a year! There had to be a touching reunion!

Banai put on his coat as if it was a matter of course, as if he was wearing a battle robe, and strode out of the house.

As the girl who knew Qingye best, she easily guessed what achievements the boy would make and where he would appear in the year.

First stop, a family restaurant!

This is where the young girl gets her first start-up capital, and here she will definitely receive the news she wants!

No, haven’t you heard of it… Then go check the apartment again!

After a while, the blue-haired girl stood downstairs and silently took out her cell phone, ready to sacrifice part of the surprise in exchange for his message.

I can't help but want to confirm, confirm that you are still living somewhere, confirm that we are also drifting.

So, she pricked up her ears intently.

beep - beep - beep -

The signal disappeared from the world.

Yanaijian returned home with a frown on his face, turned on his computer, and searched for the information he wanted... This guy's light novel hasn't been published yet? It shouldn't be like this?

Her pupils reflected irrelevant information as she casually controlled the wheel to scroll down the web pages. At this moment, a title caught her attention.

"Akutagawa... Award? The strongest new humanist in the Heisei era?"

She clicked on the webpage and silently read the author's personal information and preface, then her eyes twitched.

You can’t go wrong!

This person is him!

The girl's expression was a little dazed.

So...huh? How come Kiyono has evolved again after only a year? What's this literary award? Do you want to be a modern literary giant? I've never met such a great person!

She hesitated for two seconds and had a bad feeling. Besides, why was Qingye in Chiba now?

No wonder I couldn’t find him!

Banaijian's gaze was fixed on the words on the screen: "Hope of Revitalizing Modern Literature" and "Jointly Recommended by Professors from Major Universities", as if she were looking at things in another world. Whenever she thought she had narrowed the distance between herself and this person a little, he would make even more brilliant achievements, his light was too dazzling.

A faint sense of frustration and loss spread throughout my body, and the flame of fighting spirit in my heart flickered back and forth.

She paused in silence for a few minutes, then decisively turned off the computer, turned around and ran to the entrance.

What happened to Chiba? It's less than an hour away.

What's wrong with being a writer? I'll be an excellent editor in the future and help him.

A lot has happened between them, and they have an irreplaceable bond, so she won't back down because of this.

Banaijian hurriedly changed his shoes and opened the door forcefully. Suddenly, his mother's gentle voice came from behind him.

"Xingcai, it's already dark outside. You won't be home for dinner today...right?"

Only then did she notice the city's streetlights flickering, heralding the darkness of the night. The stars and the moon in the night sky shone brilliantly. It didn't seem wise to go to another city at this time, but...

"Yeah! I have something important to do!"

She took a step forward without hesitation.

She wanted to see that person now.

Yanaijian jogged to the station and boarded the train to Chiba.

The tram swayed silently and moved forward.

When we arrived in Chiba, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening. After all, Chiba is an agricultural city, not a bustling city that never sleeps like Tokyo. The streets seemed much more peaceful and warm.

...Where should I go to find him?

Although she ran here with great enthusiasm, Banaijian was at a loss as soon as she got out of the station. She tried to look around, but all the connections between her and Qingye had disappeared. Trying to catch him in such a big city was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

She stood stupidly in the middle of the crowd, and passers-by looked at her curiously.

"Oh right... I think I saw that he's holding a book signing event today."

Seeing the glint in his eyes, Banai called a taxi and asked the driver to take her to a nearby bookstore. Although the book signing event should have ended long ago by this time, she still wanted to try her luck.

Fortunately, the bookstore was not far from here, so she had a lot of pocket money left.

After finally crossing this long distance, Banaijian looked up at the bookstore in front of him... The staff were sorting the books in the store and they were preparing to close.

"That's right, it's already this time after all."

The blue-haired girl kicked the stone at her feet and sighed. The street lights were bright, and people shopping were huddled together, but the air was getting colder. She stared deeply at the bookstore for a few seconds, then walked aimlessly onto the street, hoping to find a convenience store to rest.

Strange roads, strange shops, strange signs...

The only thing that remains the same is the moon hanging in the night sky.

In the brilliant neon light, it seemed as if she couldn't see the faces of every passerby around her. At this moment, she suddenly stopped.

She saw a familiar figure, walking against the flow of people, unconsciously towards her, his back as straight as a bamboo.

In the crowd, the two seemed to sense something and their eyes met.

The girl paused, then smiled.

Tap, tap, the footsteps were unusually clear in the noisy street. Banaijian stood in front of him and greeted him cheerfully as usual.

"Really? He actually sneaked here..."

Qingye stared at the girl in front of him, his expression extremely complicated. Is this Yanaijian? Is this really Yanaijian herself? She actually chased him here... Isn't this too heavy!

Ba Naijian seemed to have become more mature, a look that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

The words turned into a dry sentence on the tip of my tongue:

"Is not It Cold?"

The blue-haired girl tilted her head, her eyes and eyebrows were bright, like a shimmering lake.

"It's cold. I left in such a hurry, I didn't even wear a coat. I also ran non-stop across two cities for a long time, so..."

She stretched out her arms wide and smiled brightly.

"Please warm me with your hug."

...Confirmed! This is the same Hanaijian! We're on the street, so be careful! I'm considered a famous writer now!

But since Banaijian had come here specially, and even if they were good friends, this request didn't seem excessive... In Qingye's eyes, he hadn't seen this girl for several years, and a kind of nostalgic throbbing flowed through his body along with his blood.

The boy sighed reluctantly and hugged her. She was just as plump and slender as he had imagined, as cold and hot, and the familiar fragrance brought peace to his heart.

A long hug.

Banaijian took a deep breath, let go of him contentedly, walked to his side, and walked with him on the street with a smile on his face. The unfamiliar scenery just now suddenly became colorful.

"Why did you suddenly come to Chiba..." The girl gently bumped him with her shoulder, with a complaining tone in her tone.

"There are many reasons for this." Qingye looked helpless.

"Ah, the great writer really has plenty of room to live wherever he wants. I wonder if someone still remembers his promise." Banaijian snorted, his mood changing from gloomy to bright.

"Don't worry, the second light novel hasn't been written yet. Besides, if you can do it, it's not impossible to give you the next literary work."

Qingye said seriously, as the conversation went on, those vivid memories flashed before his eyes, as if it were yesterday.

"Hehe, wait for me, I am your senior now! I will definitely do it this time!" Banaijian raised his little fist high, his smile and words were bright with confidence.

"Yeah……"

Qingye was stunned again. No wonder Banaijian looked so familiar. Does this mean that every heroine around him is older than him?!

"Hey, Kiyono-kun."

Ba Nai saw that the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, her teeth were slightly parted, and the breath from her lips was full of seductive charm.

"Where do you think a lonely girl like me should stay tonight?"

Where do you live?

Qingye's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason. Seeing that Banai had come all the way here - even crossing the world line, wouldn't it be a bit too heartless for him to let her stay in a hotel?

"Just live in my house... there are plenty of rooms anyway. But remember to tell your uncle and aunt." The pure love warrior tried hard to stick to his original intention.

"If it were Kiyono-kun, they would definitely agree."

Banaijian took two steps forward with a smile and walked in front of him, her whole body emitting the innocent joy and happiness of a little girl.

The two gradually walked from the bustling street to the quiet path. The surroundings gradually became quiet, and the breeze blew gently. The blue-haired girl looked up at the quiet night sky with anticipation on her pretty face, and even her voice was softer than usual.

"The night sky is bright tonight, it doesn't look like it's going to rain."

The girl deliberately prolonged the last syllable, walked in front of Qingye and stopped.

"Listen to me, Seino-san. Tokyo's weather forecast is really tricky. It clearly says there's an 80% chance of rain..."

Then, she suddenly grabbed the boy's hand and pressed it against her chest, causing Qingye's heart to skip a beat, as if her palm was sinking into a ball of melting spring.

Ba Nai saw that her cheeks were slightly red, her blue eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and her voice seemed to be wrapped in a layer of honey.

"But starting today, it will be 100% sunny here."

*

With a ding-dong sound, the security door opened gently.

"Eh... Is this Kiyono-kun's new home? It seems a bit more luxurious than before."

After bringing Banaijian back home, perhaps because they were too familiar with each other, or perhaps because of her personality, she was extremely natural in this situation that should have been immature, shy, and nervous, as if it was a training camp, and she even had the leisure to take pictures everywhere.

But it’s really amazing… Is this how literary writers make money?

After taking a picture of the bustling night scene facing the floor-to-ceiling window, Banaijian couldn't help muttering while looking at the photo on the phone screen.

But something always feels wrong.
