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

Chapter 409 On the Road
Objectively speaking, Watanabe Yuu was indeed a little too optimistic this time. The impact of this outing was far beyond his imagination.

——Neighbors who usually just nodded and said hello, gathered around him today and enthusiastically asked about his career as a resident singer. Some even took out pens and notebooks to ask for his autograph.

Fortunately, his excuse to escape worked as well as always, thus saving him from the embarrassment of being surrounded by a group of people and being talked to.

For him, the feeling of becoming a household name all of a sudden was indeed difficult to adapt to, and after traveling through time, he also experienced firsthand what it was like to use the real-name system to surf the Internet.

Fortunately, this kind of "torture" did not last too long. The next morning, he and Ryoko embarked on the journey back home.

However, because he couldn't control himself when he went shopping last night, or to be more precise, he bought too much due to his instigation and promotion, so he specifically asked his mother for a special car to pick him up.

"I still think we brought too much stuff."

Ryoko Hamabe, who was sitting in the back row, turned around and repeated the words she had said ten times.

Well, including this time, it’s the eleventh time.

"Where's the extra?"

Watanabe Yu pretended not to understand and asked back.

“We buy a lot, and we bring back a lot!”

Hamabe Ryoko met his eyes, looked at her reflection in his eyes, and said this very seriously.

This time, she wasn't going to let him fool her again.

"Grandma has a refrigerator." Watanabe Yu spread his hands, "And we replaced her with a big refrigerator before, which can hold all these things, not to mention that some of them are for the old couple who take care of grandma."

The older generation is always like this. They say just come back if you want to, and think in their hearts not to buy too much to avoid waste when they see people carrying big bags home. But when they really see people carrying big bags home, they are still happy in their hearts.

"That's a lot."

Ryoko Hamabe thought that it would be enough to buy some Tokyo and Kamakura specialties during her trip back, and at most the ice silk quilts and pillows that Yu mentioned for a more comfortable sleep.

Buying so much right now would be both wasteful and ostentatious.

The village is so small that a broken TV in someone's home can cause quite a stir, not to mention something like someone's granddaughter coming back to visit her parents. If you're not careful, the whole village will know about it.

If she had not experienced the misfortune, she would probably think that there was nothing wrong with the whole village knowing about it, and she would even think that this was as it should be.

To borrow a line from an ancient Chinese text in our Chinese textbook, if one does not return to his hometown when he is rich and powerful, it is like wearing embroidered clothes and walking at night; no one will know what is going on.

If you become rich but don't let others know that you are rich, how can you fulfill your vanity?
But the problem is that she has experienced changes in her life and knows very well that wealth should not be shown off. If you show off today, someone will shamelessly come to you for help tomorrow, or ask you to borrow money, or ask you to help find a job, or if they have encountered some difficulties and hope you can resolve them.

If you refuse, they are all neighbors and it would not be nice. If you don't refuse, you know in your heart that the money you lend is probably a waste of money, and as for the job you help introduce, people will most likely use their reputation to bully others.

As for the difficulties encountered, this kind of thing is even more annoying and often results in endless troubles.

In short, it is better to have less trouble than more. It is enough for you to know whether you have it or not.

"Grandma is usually alone in the countryside, and we are not with her, so there is not much we can do. The only thing we can do is to bring her more things when we go back."

Seeing that she was so serious, Watanabe Yuya stopped laughing and answered her question directly.

"What about the troubles that come one after another?"

Hearing him say this, Hamabe Ryoko felt a little better, but then her anxiety surged up again.

"You can't choke to death on food, right?" Watanabe Yu thought she was a little too vigilant. "I can understand your worry. You're just afraid that the villagers will see that we're getting better and come to you shamelessly to ask for this and that, right?"

"Ah."

Hamabe Ryoko bluntly confirmed his statement. "At most, they are curious and then talk about this matter at the intelligence center at the entrance of the village. More than that, they probably won't do it again." Watanabe Yu paused, "They just bought a lot of things and didn't drive a luxury car or wear a famous watch. What can it prove?

"Besides, the villagers already know about the last invitation to sing. If we want to hide it, isn't it too late to talk about it now?"

When the company was not yet established, he might have agreed with Ryoko, but things are different now.

No matter how cautious Han Li, who is in the Jindan stage, is, he would not protect everyone in front of him when facing a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage.

No, wait, with his personality, it's really possible.

Anyway, this is what it means.

"..."

Hamabe Ryoko fell silent.

This was the first time he answered the question directly, but she didn't know how to respond.

The reason was simple: he explained all the possibilities that she was worried about.

"Even if the situation you described really happens, wouldn't it be better to refuse?" Watanabe Yu paused, "Then let grandma say that I'm the one who manages the money at home, and I'm a stingy person who is not willing to lend or help, right?"

He is happy to take the blame for this.

Someone has to take the blame anyway, right? Other prominent people might want to save face at this time, but he doesn't care.

Face is only valuable at the right time.

A gentleman can be deceived by tricks, but unfortunately, he is neither a gentleman nor a villain, he is just an ordinary time traveler.

“This is not good.”

After holding it in for a long time, Hamabe Ryoko finally uttered these words.

She didn't want him to take the blame.

In the future, he will become a public figure, and his image cannot be damaged, otherwise it will pose hidden dangers. If he really encounters any problems, these hidden dangers may become the last straw.

"What's wrong with that?" Watanabe Yu pinched her little face, "No matter what happens, the cold numbers on the card won't change."

He doesn't visit prostitutes, gamble, or take drugs. He just lives a normal life with food and drink. Maybe he will buy more properties in the future, or one or two nice cars. Such normal expenses will not cause any big problems.

"I care more about something else than this."

He took the initiative to change the subject.

"what?"

"Here."

Watanabe Yu took out his cell phone and handed it over.

A line of text was reflected on the screen of his mobile phone.

That was a message from Akiba Books.

——The publishing company agreed to his request, and serialization will begin next Monday.
