The cell phone he placed on the table suddenly rang. Ye Shanming picked it up and saw that it was Baiyin Yuxing's father calling.

"Hey, brother Ye Shan, how about coming to my house for dinner tonight?"

Baiyin's father's magnetic voice came from the microphone. Ye Shanming felt a little confused. Apart from greeting the Baiyin sisters when going to and from school, he had no other interactions with them recently.

"Sure, I'll go there after school."

After a little thought, Ye Shanming accepted the invitation.

"Okay, I'll go buy two bottles of good wine, and we'll have a good drink tonight."

Baiyin's father's voice immediately became much more excited, which made Ye Shanming suspect that he just wanted to drink but Baiyin Gui wouldn't let him, so he used himself as an excuse.

"The exam is finally over. I thought I was going to die suddenly in the exam room."

The door of the club classroom was pushed open. Ji Karen looked exhausted, lying on the table motionless, and began to complain to Ye Shanming.

"Master, what should I do? I feel like I'm going to fail all my subjects this time."

Ji Kailian turned her head to look at him, her eyes losing their luster, as if she had seen her own tragic future, and she couldn't help but wail:

"If I fail all the exams, I'll be kept in school for tutoring. Then I won't be able to learn painting from you after school."

"Wouldn't it be better if you wrote less gossip and spent more time studying?"

Ye Shanming didn't even look at her and answered nonchalantly. In just a short while, the others also arrived at the club classroom one after another.

Fujiwara Chika's spirits were not dampened by the midterm exam at all. She happily spun around, walked to the podium, and clapped her hands:

"Hey everyone, time for our Hakone Hot Springs travel guide. Shijo-san!"

"exist!"

Shijo Shinki subconsciously raised her hand, straightened her back, and waited for Fujiwara Chika's next words.

"Did Tanuma-san accept the invitation?"

"No, Tanuma said his family arranged for him to study basic nursing at the hospital, so he doesn't have time."

"Does that mean our hot spring trip has to be cancelled?"

Ji Karen was struck by lightning. She was already frustrated by the exam and became even more depressed.

Seeing her like this, Shijo Shinki felt a little sorry for her and said to her in a comforting tone, "It's okay, we'll carry out the plan as usual. Just think of it as a way to relax after the midterm exam."

"Great!"

Ji Kalian suddenly regained her energy, hugged Shijo Zhenfei, and couldn't help rubbing her face.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. See you tomorrow."

Ye Shanming did not get involved in the subsequent discussion. He picked up his schoolbag and prepared to go out.

"See you tomorrow, Hayama-san."

Fujiwara Chika said goodbye to him with a smile and continued to discuss the details of the hot spring trip with Shijo Maki.

Hayasaka Ai looked at Akira Hayama's back as he left, then quietly slipped out and followed him.

At the gate of the junior high school, Kei Shirogane and his good friend Moe Fujiwara were preparing to go home together. Moe Fujiwara buried her arms in her chest, which was not at all suitable for a junior high school student, and pressed her whole body against her.

"Xiao Gui, my sister is taking me to Hakone for three days tomorrow. You should come with me."

Shirogane Kei was somewhat tempted by Fujiwara Moeha's words, but when he thought about his family situation, he hesitated: "Is it really possible? But staying in a hotel would cost a lot of money."

"Oh, no need to spend money."

Fujiwara Moeha's face was full of pride: "My sister found a sucker, and someone covered all the expenses this time."

"Xiaogui."

Bai Yingui felt someone tap his shoulder, turned his head and looked with a surprised smile on his face:

"Brother Ye Shan, why are you in the junior high school?"

"Your dad invited me to your house for dinner tonight, so I just came to see you and take you home."

Ye Shanming touched her head. Ever since he adopted Aura, he found that he particularly liked to do this when facing these little girls. Perhaps this was also a sign of aging?

When Fujiwara Moeha saw Hayama Akira's face, her eyes lit up. She moved closer to Hayama Akira and spoke a long string of words like a machine gun:

"Big Bro, are you Xiaogui's boyfriend? You're going to Xiaogui's house for dinner tonight. Are you ready to meet his parents?!"

"Moe, what are you talking about?!"

Bai Yin Kei's face turned red after hearing what Fujiwara Moe said. She quickly covered her mouth, avoiding his gaze and not daring to look directly at Ye Shanming.

"Weird Senior, have you finally, driven by lust, attacked this first-year kid?!"

Iino Miko appeared out of nowhere, unfastened the armband on her right arm that symbolized the Discipline Committee, and stared coldly at Hayama Akira, who had already been labeled as someone who liked children.

"Xiaobo, call the police!"

"Xiao Mizi, why are you joining in the fun?"

Seeing that the relationship in the field became more complicated because of Fujiwara Moeha's words, Ye Shanming felt a little headache and made a final struggle for his reputation.

After some explanation and with the testimony of the person involved, Kei Shirogane, Iino Miko finally believed what Hayama Akira said.

"I'm sorry, weirdo-senpai, I shouldn't have doubted you."

Iino Miko solemnly apologized to Hayama Akira. This is her character. If it is her fault, she will bravely admit it.

"Since you know you're wrong, why don't you change that weird name for me?"

But Iino Miko insisted on something: "No, even though this is wrong, it doesn't mean you are not a weirdo."

"You really are, forget it, Xiaogui, let's go."

Ye Shanming didn't bother with her about the strange address anymore. He called out to Bai Yingui, who was still blushing, and prepared to go to Bai Yin's house with her.

"Moe Ye, seniors, I'm leaving first."

Chapter 5: Sacrifice yourself for the sake of your family’s wealth!

The two walked side by side to the station to take the tram. Fujiwara Moe's words had a great impact on Shirogane Kei. He remained silent all the way and kept a very subtle distance from Hayama Akira.

This strange atmosphere continued until the two returned to Baiyin's house. As soon as Baiyin Gui opened the door, he smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

Baiyin's father was lying on the sofa, with an empty bottle of wine on the coffee table. When he heard the door open, he sat up straight as if by reflex, and hurriedly tried to hide the bottle, shouting in panic:

"Is that Xiaogui? Come in later, Daddy is a little busy!"

"You're drinking at home again!"

Bai Yingui frowned, snatched the bottle from Baiyin's father's hand, bent down and glared at him.

"Xiao Gui, being an adult man is very tiring. Daddy also wants to indulge himself occasionally."

Baiyin's father sighed deeply and lay decadently on the sofa. Seeing him like this, Baiyin Gui felt a little sorry for him, so he took out an unopened bottle of sake and gently placed it in front of him.

"You are only allowed to drink one bottle. Drinking too much is bad for your health."

Baiyin's father was extremely surprised to find the sake back, and quickly put the sake in his arms.

"A daughter really knows how to care for her father. She's much better than that brat Yuxing."

Bai Yinggui ignored his nonsense and smiled apologetically at Ye Shanming:

"Brother Ye Shan, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I'm going to go prepare dinner. You can chat with my father first."

Then he turned to look at Baiyin's father, the smile on his face disappeared, and he warned him solemnly:

"We can't be as rude as last time and let people think that our Baiyin family is uneducated. Do you hear me?!"

Looking at Baiyin Gui putting on an apron and busying himself in the kitchen, Baiyin's father took out a cigarette from his arms and skillfully handed one to Ye Shanming.

"Brother, come on, take a whole one."

"No smoking in the house! And don't lead Brother Ye Shan astray!"

Bai Yingui's harsh scolding came from the kitchen.

The dining table was in a mess. Baiyin's father was already drunk. He slipped down from his chair, hugged Ye Shanming's thigh and began to complain.

"Brother Ye Shan, I'm suffering. I finally saved some money and wanted to invest it, but I lost it all. I don't know how to tell my two children at home."

After dinner, Shirogane Miyuki and Shirogane Kei went back to their rooms to do their homework. Otherwise, if Shirogane Kei heard what they said, he would definitely be scolded.

"Let's go to the rooftop and talk so as not to disturb them from studying."

For the safety of Baiyin's father, Ye Shanming lifted him up from the floor with one hand and dragged him all the way to the rooftop.

Blown by the cold night wind, Baiyin's father sobered up a lot. He sat down on the ground, took out a cigarette from his arms, lit it, took a deep puff, and his face was shrouded in smoke.

"Brother Ye Shan, I did what you said last time!"

"About your Vtuber debut?"

“Yes, how should this thing be made?”

Speaking of Vtuber debut, Ye Shanming became interested. He no longer had the idea of ​​debuting as a Vtuber himself, but it was still very interesting for him to train others to become the Qin Shi Huang of the V circle.

And it just so happened that Baiyin's father was the person he had chosen in his mind.

"I need a computer that performs well and is as cheap as possible."

Ye Shanming put forward his own request. The 500,000 yuan scholarship for the midterm exam was basically in his pocket, but life in another world also made him develop the habit of saving whenever possible.

"No problem, I have a way."

Having made up his mind to do something, Baiyin's father finally mustered the courage of an adult. He flicked away the ash from his cigarette with his right index finger and agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, but let's make it clear in advance that this is a partnership between the two of us. The initial preparations will be considered my investment, and I'll take 20% of the subsequent profits."

Ye Shanming stated his conditions. Interest is interest, business is business. It is only natural for him to come up with ideas and make the leather cases in exchange for a commission.

Baiyin's father looked at him in disbelief and said in a shocked voice:

"You're actually taking a cut?!"

"You actually want me to work for nothing?!"

Two half-brothers, whose ages are different, are in crisis of breaking up because of money.

"But I'm your future father-in-law. Isn't my money your money?"

Baiyin's father was heartbroken, and Ye Shanming's pupils shrank sharply. He felt that his reputation was being challenged:

"What future father-in-law? Don't slander me! I treat Xiaogui like an old father treats his daughter!"

"Don't give me that. No one understands Xiaogui better than me."

Baiyin's father scoffed at Ye Shanming's words, and said proudly: "Even if Yuxing can't see it, as an old father, I can see at a glance that her attitude towards you is not natural at all. There is definitely something wrong!"

"Then you need to take some time to see an ophthalmologist."

Ye Shanming sneered. Bai Yinkei's abnormal attitude towards him today was completely influenced by Fujiwara Moe's words.

Baiyin's father was too lazy to argue with him, so he brushed aside the issue and extended his right hand:

"Two for two, two for two, deal."

"make a deal."

The two of them high-fived and reached a verbal agreement, and Ye Shanming's V-Circle Qin Shi Huang plan finally began to move forward.

Shinjuku Station, as Tokyo's rail transit hub, has a huge passenger flow every day, especially on weekends, it can be called a crowded hell.

In the sea of ​​people, Ye Shanming quietly erected a barrier, leaving a space for himself. While thinking of new magic in his mind, he waited for someone.

"Sorry, I'm late!"

Azusa Xiaodou was wearing a plain white dress, a straw hat on her head, and was running hurriedly with a pink suitcase.

"It's okay, I didn't wait long."

Ye Shanming withdrew his thoughts, removed the barrier, looked her up and down, gave her a thumbs up, and praised her without hesitation: "This dress is very beautiful."

"Really? My mom picked it out for me."

Xiaodouzi smiled happily when she heard that, and she held the hem of her skirt and turned around pretentiously, looking very satisfied.

Although the actual situation was that she was dragged out of bed by her mother at six in the morning, and only after her mother disliked her dressing taste did she personally pick out such a set of clothes for her.

"Then let's go and meet at Hakone-Yumoto Station."
