Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

After hearing what Kitahara Takashi said, Katsura Yanye did not look very happy.

"What about Kitahara-kun? Who's the first person that comes to mind when you close your eyes? Is it Miss Kamikawa? Or Miss Yozakura from that day?"

"neither."

Even without closing his eyes, Kitahara Tsutomu knew who it was.

Gui Yanye didn't know why, but when she heard this answer, her tone rose slightly: "No?"

Not her?

Who is that?

Could it be me?

Katsura Yanye also knew why she had such inappropriate thoughts in her mind.

I already have a boyfriend, I shouldn't think like this.

However, she couldn't control her thoughts.

"Ah."

Kitahara Takashi was afraid that she would continue asking questions, so he changed the subject: "Let's go inside."

Katsura Yanye felt a little disappointed, but she was also afraid that she would continue to have wild thoughts, so she led Kitahara Tsuyoshi into the house.

31. The last person who did this was called... (seeking votes)

Katsura Kotonoha's house is different from ordinary houses. It has two parking spaces.

An express locker and doorbell are set up at the door, and a camera is connected to the interior.

Katsura Yanye opened the door: "Come in."

Kitahara Takashi politely said "Excuse me!" and walked into the house.

The entrance of Gui Yanye's house is very large, and it is estimated to be about 20 square meters.

Kitahara Takashi looked around and couldn't help but ask, "Tsui-san, excuse me, how big is your house?"

Katsura Kotonoha closed the door, took out a pair of brand new indoor shoes from the shoe cabinet that covered the entire wall on the left, bent down, and placed them considerately at Kitahara Takashi's feet.

"The land area of ​​my house is about 270 square meters, and the building area is about 300 square meters."

When Kitahara Tsutomu saw this, he had to withdraw his hand and whispered "Thank you."

Then he asked, "Excuse me, how much is it?"

Katsura Yanye thought for a moment and said, "About 200 million, I can't remember the exact number."

She also happened to hear her parents mention it once, but didn't pay much attention to it.

While changing his shoes, Kitahara Takashi was thinking about how long he would have to work hard without a system.

Without a system, if he studies hard and everything goes well to enter a large company, he can basically reach an annual income of more than 35 million yen by the age of 40 to .

In Japan, an annual salary of 8 million yen is considered a high income.

Ten million yen is a high-income salary and a symbol of social status.

Even if you enter a large company ranked in the top 500, that income can only be achieved by being promoted to section chief.

Apart from these, the only people who can achieve this income are professionals such as doctors, lawyers, certified accountants, etc.

'How many years will this take?' Kitahara Takashi thought as he changed his shoes.

The above speculations are based on the premise that everything goes well. In fact, it is almost impossible for everything to go so smoothly in reality.

"It's better to work for the system."

Kitahara Takashi feels that it is better to work for Tongzi-ge than for capitalists.

As for the rewards, they are real and we never give you empty promises.

The only problem is that I work for Brother Tongzi, and I don’t know when this boss will start to make a profit.

Moreover, if you ask him to stay away from love and marriage for the rest of his life and just wander around among women every day and act as a substitute for others, he will not be happy.

Just after changing into indoor shoes, Kitahara Takashi heard the sound of "ta-da-da!" on the wooden floor.

"Is it Kitahara Nissan?"

Kitahara Tsutomu looked up and saw a little girl in a white princess dress running towards him.

She looked like a miniature version of Kaede Kotonoha, with a small oval face and big, shiny black eyes that reflected the light. She also had a small nose, a small mouth, and dimples when she smiled, making her very cute.

"Her name is Gui Xin, and she is my sister." Gui Yanye took the initiative to introduce.

"Hello."

Kitahara Takashi pulled up a smile and greeted Keishin.

He doesn't hate children, as long as they are not naughty ones.

“…”

Gui Xin didn't answer. She just tilted her head back and stared blankly at Kitahara Tsutomu.

The boy in front of me was so handsome that he looked like the protagonist from a girls' comic. He was photogenic, had fair and healthy skin, and was very tall. He was a beautiful boy who stood out from the crowd.

Before Kitahara Tsuyoshi came, she heard from her sister that Kitahara Tsuyoshi was very handsome.

But she never expected that Kitahara Tsutomu could be so handsome.

Much more handsome than my sister's boyfriend.

"Heart!"

Seeing that Gui Xin was staring at Kitahara Tsutomu without saying a word, she felt it was rude and felt a little dissatisfied, so her voice became a little louder than usual.

Guixin reacted, her face flushed and she quickly said, "Bei, Beiyuan Nissan, hello, I, my name is Guixin."

Gui Xin stuttered several times due to nervousness for this simple sentence, and spoke haltingly.

At the end of the conversation, Gui Xin embarrassedly hid behind Gui Yanye.

When Katsura Yanye saw that her usually cunning sister couldn't even finish a sentence in front of Kitahara Takashi, she pursed her lips and smiled softly.

"Come in, please, my Lord."

Led by Katsura Kotonoha, Kitahara Takashi followed them through the corridor into the living room.

The living room is designed in I shape, the kitchen is open and connected to the dining room and living room. The layout is regular, giving the visual effect that the area appears spacious and bright.

The open kitchen is fully functional and equipped with a powerful range hood, stove, oven, dishwasher, extra-large sink and cabinets.

The large sink and countertop allow most kitchen work to be done here, saving other storage space.

Although the living room is connected to the dining room, the proportions and sizes between them are well controlled and coordinated, making the living room look brighter.

"Zun, would you like barley tea or lemon tea?"

Kitahara Takashi looked at the layout of the living room, nodded, and casually said, "Lemon tea, please."

"Give."

Katsura Yanye took out the iced lemon tea from the refrigerator, poured a full cup, put a few ice cubes in it, and placed it in front of Kitahara Takashi.

"Thank you."

Beiyuan Zun took a sip and looked down at the lemon tea: "Is this homemade?"

"Yes."

Katsura Yanye looked at Kitahara Takashi with a little surprise.

She didn't expect that Kitahara Tsutomu could actually taste the difference.

“No wonder it’s not that sweet.”

The lemon tea drinks sold outside contain special saccharin, which makes it taste a bit sweet, but the one made by Katsura Kotonoha is not that sweet.

"Would you mind telling me your secret recipe? I'd like to try making it myself next time."

Kitahara Takashi thought Eriri would like this.

Next time I'll make it for her to drink, and then I'll accidentally tell her about it. She'll be so touched that she might start to get gold coins again.

Even if she doesn't like it, he can still make it for Kasumigaoka Utaha, Hiratsuka Shizuka, Shijo Maki, Nakano Yotsuba and others. There will always be someone who likes it.

Well, I'm really a smart guy.

"Takeru, if you want to drink something, tell me and I'll make it for you." Katsura Yanye didn't know what Kitahara Takeru was thinking. She took out some snacks that looked very expensive from the cupboard and put them on the table.

"Huh? Isn't this inappropriate?"

He always felt something was wrong when he asked someone else's girlfriend to make lemon tea for him.

And he didn't make this lemon tea for himself, he made it for others.

Taking lemon tea made with Katsura leaves and giving it to another woman, well... the last person who did this seemed to be Chen Hansheng.

Gui Xin hurriedly said, "It's suitable, why not?"

"Kitahara Nissan saved my sister. If it weren't for Nissan, my sister would have been locked in the classroom all night."

She wished Beiyuan Zun would agree.

This way, she would have the chance to meet this handsome brother.

Gui Yanye agreed: "Yes, Zun. Give me a chance to thank you."

"If you want to thank me, don't block my mission." Kitahara Takashi muttered in his heart.

32. I will never go home empty-handed today (seeking tickets)

After lunch, Kitahara Takashi played chess with Keishin.

Although he was also trying to understand the rules of chess today, Guixin didn't know how to play very well either, so the two of them were just noobs fighting each other.

When the two were playing chess, Gui Yanye watched with a smile. Sometimes she would stare at the chessboard in deep thought, and sometimes she would turn on her cell phone.

I wasn't chatting with anyone, I just took a quick look and closed the page.

Kitahara Takashi guessed that the other party was probably checking to see if Ito Makoto had replied to the message.

They played until one o'clock in the afternoon, and then Gui Xin was sent to bed by Gui Yanye to take a nap.

After coaxing Gui Xin to sleep, Gui Yanye walked out of the room and saw Kitahara Tsutomu supporting his face with his left hand and casually flipping through the hardcover book spread out on the table with his other hand.

My eyes couldn't help but move to the boy's profile. His skin was very white, like a freshly peeled egg, to the extent that even girls would envy him.

Her long eyelashes drooped, and her bright and clear eyes were focused on the book.

The afternoon is long and gentle. Amid the chirping of birds outside the window and the lazy posture of a handsome young man flipping through the pages of a book, everything seems quiet and beautiful.

Katsura Yanye suddenly wanted to take a picture of this scene, and her hand was already raised, but when she saw the photo of Ito Makoto's handsome face as the screen saver, she stared at it silently for a long time and finally put down the phone.

She turned and walked back to her room. When she came out, she also took out a book and sat down opposite Kitahara Takashi.

"Sorry to bother Kitahara-kun with my sister's mischief."

Beiyuan Zun stretched his neck and said, "Don't say that. I like Xin very much. Xin, she is very likable, isn't she?"

Katsura Yanye smiled helplessly: "Xin and I are different. She has always been very popular."

Kitahara Takashi raised his eyes slightly and glanced at her: "Ms. Katsura is so outstanding, is it possible that she is being ostracized in school?"

He had noticed it before.

Otherwise, not all the calls would come to me.

But shouldn't we call the police for this kind of thing?

"I don't have many friends at school."

When saying this, Katsura Yanye looked a little lonely.

"Saionji-kun is the only one willing to be my friend."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Tsutomu looked at her with a rather strange expression.

Do you call someone who wants to be your boyfriend or girlfriend a friend?
