Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK.

Chapter 239 Determination [4K2]

After the karaoke ended, a cold drizzle began to fall in Tokyo.

Under the warm light of the street lamps that sprinkled like a shower, raindrops fell one by one, wetting the asphalt road bit by bit, and the light-colored road was covered with a dark veil.

"Goodbye, Yuki."

"Bye, see you tomorrow~"

After saying goodbye to Watanabe Yuu who opened his umbrella and walked into the rainy night, Hayakawa Yuki took a step back under the eaves and watched his back gradually go away until it completely disappeared in the rainy night.

If her mother hadn't said she would come and pick her up no matter what, she would have been under the umbrella right now.

Of course, she also mentioned that if she waited a little longer, she would be able to take a ride, but he declined and said something in a half-joking and half-serious tone:

——After a lively party, I prefer to walk alone.

"Maybe it's to relax."

She pursed her red lips and muttered something in a low voice.

call.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew and she subconsciously hugged her arms tightly.

She wasn't wearing much today, and the temperature dropped dramatically at night. When the wind blew, it was no exaggeration to say that the chill was pervasive.

"It may be that he also needs some time."

Yuki Hayakawa rubbed her stiff arms and turned her head to look at the glass door that was open to the outside.

The warm air inside was rushing out in waves, and the cold and warm air were in fierce confrontation at the glass door.

Alternate between hot and cold, be careful of heat cold.

Ah.

The corners of Yuki Hayakawa's mouth rose slightly.

For some reason, she thought of this advertising slogan he once said.

At that time, she thought this sentence was an advertisement for some cold medicine, but after checking it online, she found out that this slogan was just something he said casually.

“So my partner is really an all-around genius.”

At least she doesn't have the ability to come up with such fluent advertising slogans, and she has never seen any pharmaceutical company that has that ability.

call.

She raised her hands, blew a breath into them, and then rubbed them vigorously.

A faint warmth welled up.

She has a cold constitution and has a low resistance to cold weather. For example, this month, she has to turn on the electric blanket before going to bed.

During the particularly cold days in the middle of the month, she even had to put an electric hot water bottle under her feet, otherwise her feet would be cold all night.

Suddenly, a light lit up in the rainy night.

The car's low beam headlights penetrated the gloomy rainy night, forming a sharp contrast with the warm light from the street lamps not far away.

The white 760Li drove out of the rainy night and stopped steadily at the door of the karaoke bar.

"boarding."

The passenger window slowly rolled down, and Naoko Hayakawa, who was sitting in the driver's seat, greeted her daughter.

At the same time, there was a click of the car lock opening.

Yuki Hayakawa didn't waste any time. She opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened her seat belt with ease.

"Why are you driving this car today?"

She turned her head and looked at Hayakawa Naoko.

"You're having a party with your classmates, so I have to drive a nicer car to show my respect to you, right?"

Naoko Hayakawa said this half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Although this limited edition Steinway 760Li is not very expensive, it should still stand out among the luxury cars.

This is also the reason why she spent so much money to buy this car last year.

As Yuki gets older, the people she meets become more realistic and they are divided into different circles. She doesn't want her daughter to be looked down upon by her friends.

"The guys in the class aren't that materialistic."

Yuki Hayakawa withdrew her gaze and looked out the window.

"Just think of it as a waste of time, mom."

Naoko Hayakawa didn't explain anything and steered the car steadily into the main road.

Yes, it might be true as Yuki said, that the classmates in her class were far less materialistic, but their lack of materialism was their business; whether she took the initiative to display it or not was another matter.

"..."

Yuki Hayakawa didn't say anything, but just silently looked at the street scene that was constantly receding outside the car window.

Maybe it was because of the rain, the cars on the main road were driving quite smoothly, and the situation of squeezing into gaps as in the past did not occur.

"Did you enjoy the party today?"

Naoko Hayakawa glanced at the traffic light ahead and gently stepped on the brakes.

The red light is so conspicuous under the warm street lights.

"I'm quite happy."

Yuki Hayakawa gave a lukewarm answer.

It wasn't that she was being disrespectful to her mother, she was just simply not interested.

"What do you mean by happy?"

After taking a look at the red light that showed 40 seconds left, Naoko Hayakawa turned her head and her eyes fell on her daughter's profile.

However, due to the poor visibility in the car and the tilted head posture of Yuki, she could not see her daughter's specific expression at the moment.

“That’s exactly what it means!”

Yuki Hayakawa pursed her red lips, and there was an inexplicable hint of impatience in her tone.

"..."

After the words were spoken, the car fell into a brief silence.

"I'm sorry, I got a little emotional."

After coming to her senses, Yuki Hayakawa apologized, then rolled down the car window, letting the rain outside hit her face.

She needs to calm down.

"There's nothing to be sorry about. Rather than apologizing, I want to know what happened. There are some things that you will never be able to digest if you keep them in your stomach. On the contrary, you will feel much better if you speak them out, even if it's just to vent your emotions."

Naoko Hayakawa's voice is as gentle as ever.

She knew her precious daughter's temper very well. The sudden outburst of emotion just now showed that her daughter had encountered a problem that made her unhappy.

"I..." Hayakawa Yuki was silent for a moment, "I don't know what happened to me. I was quite calm just now, but after you asked me those questions, I became inexplicably restless."

After finishing her explanation, she silently looked at the motorcycle in the outermost lane.

They were a couple.

The rider was a female rider. She was wearing a helmet, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but from her perspective, she could barely see the other person's eyes.

The mainly black cycling suit wraps around the female rider's body, outlining her curvy figure.

Behind her, holding her waist was a tall, thin man in a suit and also wearing a helmet.

Judging from his figure, he should be around 25 or 26 years old.

For no reason, the images of Ryoko and You appeared in her mind.

In a few years, when they all graduate from school and enter the society, Ryoko's cool temperament will really fit the image of that female rider...

Inexplicably, when she thought of that scene, her mood, which had originally calmed down, became irritable again.

"It's okay. People always lose control of their emotions sometimes. It's normal to lose control of your emotions. When mom was your age, she also often lost control of her emotions. But at that time, the loss of control was..."

Naoko Hayakawa glanced at the countdown of the traffic light and silently released the handbrake.

"The loss of control at that time?"

Yuki Hayakawa rolled up the car window and continued the conversation.

"It's mostly because your grandmother didn't assign me the right homework. I mean in terms of music. As for schoolwork, she didn't ask too much of me."

Naoko Hayakawa smiled, and when she saw the car in front start to move, she also gently stepped on the accelerator.

After crossing the crosswalk and turning, the lane suddenly became wider and the traffic volume became much less.

The white 760Li started driving smoothly again. "I... didn't have any conflicts with anyone, nor did I have any unpleasantness with anyone, let alone any verbal conflicts with anyone."

Yuki Hayakawa paused, but continued speaking softly.

"uh-huh."

Naoko Hayakawa responded, calmly slowed down the car, and then replanned the route in her mind.

I definitely can't go home directly now. I have to take a detour and wait for Xiao Yuki to finish speaking before going home.

"I'm just a little, worried."

Yuki Hayakawa considered the words and finally chose the first word that came to her mind.

"What are you worried about? Is it the final exam results? If that's the case, Mom doesn't think it's necessary. After all, you've already taken the exam, right? There's no point in regretting it. If you can't do it this time, you can make it up next time."

Naoko Hayakawa thought about it and decided not to add that sentence.

[It's just a one-time loss, not a life-long loss, so why be so sad? ]

"It has nothing to do with the results. As for the results, I am actually quite satisfied. After all, I was at the bottom of the list before, but now I am at least in the middle."

At this point, Yuki Hayakawa couldn't help but chuckle.

I am laughing at myself, and also at my talent in learning.

In terms of studying alone, whether compared with senior sister Ryoko or Ayana, her grades are really far behind, so far that she can't even think of catching up.

It is not an exaggeration to call it a 'natural chasm'.

"Yes."

Naoko Hayakawa nodded slightly, confirming what her daughter said.

"I'm just worried about my relationship with Yuu."

Yuki Hayakawa sighed.

What my mother said was right, but also wrong.

Yes, after she said what was in her heart, she did feel relieved, but this sense of relief only lasted for a second. The next moment, the feeling of anxiety surged up again.

It was obviously her first.

Although love is not about first come first served, she was indeed his desk mate from the beginning.

"You confessed to him?"

Naoko Hayakawa hesitated for half a second.

In her impression, the only thing that could make her daughter so distracted or anxious was Xiang You's confession.

This stage of a relationship is like this. When one party chooses to come clean, regardless of who has the initiative, the time spent waiting for an answer is truly the most torturous and the easiest time to become restless.

She had seen too many of these when she was in high school.

"……Yes."

Yuki Hayakawa took a deep breath and turned on the car radio.

God knows if it was just a coincidence that the radio station just happened to be playing the song that was very popular a while ago
——《Love Song of Broken Heart》

She is personally quite familiar with this song, not only the melody and lyrics, but also its ranking.

As for why she knew so much.

If you are number one, will you forget your number two?

Some time ago, with Ming Haijiro's extensive and hard promotion, "First Love" managed to top the charts, surpassing "Love Song".

That is why she listened to this song repeatedly and compared it with "First Love".

"What was his answer?"

Naoko Hayakawa glanced at the intersection ahead and turned on the turn signal.

This time she was lucky and didn't get a red light again.

However, the rain seemed to be getting heavier this night.

Without making a sound, she turned the windshield wipers up one gear.

"He, he didn't answer."

Yuki Hayakawa lowered her eyebrows, and her face, which was covered by shadows, was full of self-mockery.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Naoko Hayakawa did not rush to respond.

She knew that her daughter might have more to say.

The white sedan drove along the main road in Bunkyo Ward. The warm light from the street lamps on both sides of the road continued to shine down and then be left behind, and the light inside the car also flickered.

"Or rather, I actually know his answer." Hayakawa Yuki chuckled, raised her head, leaned her head against the passenger seat's headrest, and looked at the dark roof of the car. "His affection for me is actually at a somewhat delicate stage."

Perhaps because the windows were closed, the full heat in the car made her face look a little redder.

"More than friends, but less than lovers?"

Naoko Hayakawa asked tentatively.

This was the most appropriate description she could think of.

"Maybe we should be closer than friends, partners. More than partners, but less than lovers."

Yuki Hayakawa corrected her mother.

"In hindsight, you were a little impulsive."

Naoko Hayakawa leaned back and leaned against her seat.

In a relationship, once the cards are revealed, there is no more way out, and no more remedies like “Are you serious? I was just joking.”

Once you get rejected, it's really over.

At least she hasn't seen many people who can continue to be friends with the other party as if nothing happened after their confession was rejected.

Most of those who want to remain friends, after all, still have evil intentions.

I always feel that I have opportunities, and then as opportunities come and go, I get deeper and deeper into trouble.

"I know."

Yuki Hayakawa bit her red lips.

How could she not know?

She knows it very well.

"So, what are you going to do?"

Naoko Hayakawa sighed silently in her heart. Her intuition told her that the path her daughter had chosen was difficult, and if she was not careful, there would be little hope.

This is also the reason why so many male and female partners in the music industry will restrain their affection for their partners, and even take the initiative to dispel their unnecessary affection.

Once they go far away, both the group and the people will go away together.

"This winter vacation, I want to go to Okinawa to see him."

Yuki Hayakawa expressed her thoughts.

This was also her decision.

As for the news that Ryoko and Ayana were also going, she didn't plan to tell her mother.

She knew her mother's temper very well. If she let her mother know, she would probably be unable to move an inch during this winter vacation.

Mom will find ways to stop herself.

Because in my mother's eyes, it was a big pit.

But for me...

I have to keep trying.

She withdrew her gaze, closed her eyes, and waited for her mother's verdict.

"How long? You need to take a plane to get there. Do you need me to take you there?"

Naoko Hayakawa was silent for a moment, but still chose to support her daughter.

The mother and daughter actually have the same personalities, both are equally stubborn, both are the same...

Don't turn back until you hit the Nanshan Mountain.
