Tokyo Sick Girlfriend

Chapter 143 Turning Point

"Three times to the left, three times to the right, then clockwise up and down..."

Hasegawa Saori held his hand and made him draw circles in front of her. Shiratori Seiya followed her hand movements and spun around a few times before he had completely learned how to do it.

Saori was probably troubled by this matter, so she was very serious and focused in both her tone and actions when she spoke.

Shiratori Seiya felt that her level of focus was similar to, or even more serious than, when she practiced kendo.
However, after a series of actions, Saori Hasegawa looked down at the two treasures in front of her for a while, a hesitant look appearing in her eyes. Then, she looked up at Seiya Shiratori with some uncertainty and asked:
"Does Kiyoya think it's gotten bigger?"

"..."

Seeing the girl's expectant look, Shiratori Seiya nodded and comforted her:
"It's gotten bigger, hasn't it? But this isn't something that happened overnight..."

Upon hearing this, Saori Hasegawa's eyes widened for a moment, then she nodded vigorously and said:
"Looks like we'll have to do this more often from now on!"

"..."

For a moment, Shiratori Seiya regretted encouraging her earlier, and after thinking for a moment, advised her:
“Saori, you should always go home and rest at night, right? Last night was a special case, after all, we're not married yet, so it's not good to do things like that.”

"Eh? But Kiyoya's illness isn't better yet? Saori can only go back with peace of mind after Kiyoya is fully recovered..."

"It's ready."

As Shiratori Seiya spoke, he grabbed her hand and placed it on his forehead, staring into her eyes as he said:
"Look, you're all better now. After all, it was just a minor cold."

Saori touched Shiratori Seiya's forehead with her fingers, then, mimicking the way she felt her own body temperature in the drama, a regretful expression on her face.
"All right……"

"But Kiyoya likes big things, right? Even if Saori is like this, will Kiyoya continue to like her?"

As she spoke, she lightly bit her lip, her face filled with a forlorn expression.

Shiratori Seiya was taken aback, never expecting Saori to say this. In fact, aside from Takahashi Mio, the only other person he had ever touched besides Saori was Shione.

It must be said that Shion's chest is indeed much deeper and broader than Saori's, probably to the point that it would take two hands to hold it. Moreover, Shion's waist is very thin, and the shape of her buttocks is also very beautiful. She is the kind of peach buttocks. Her legs are well-proportioned, and her proportions from top to bottom are perfect.

Shiratori Seiya subconsciously recalled the days he spent dating Shione, how she would often sit on his lap, and how he could fully feel her delicate fullness back then...

"Qing Zai? Qing Zai?"

Seeing that Shiratori Seiya's eyes were unfocused, Hasegawa Saori blinked and called his name twice.

"Oh, what's wrong, Saori?"

"Is Kiyoya thinking about them?"

"Ah, no..."

Shiratori Seiya instinctively denied it, then felt guilty for his lie. Before Saori could speak, he pulled back the covers and said:
"Alright, get up."

"Oh."

"..."

After washing up, Shiratori Seiya cleared his throat. Although his voice wasn't as hoarse as yesterday, his throat was still a little sore, and one side of his nose was still blocked. That's how colds are; you just have to wait for them to get better on their own.

Come to think of it, only Saori would believe that touching a person's head to check their temperature would mean they'd be cured of a cold.

But this is normal, after all, he has known Saori for so many years and has never seen her sick or anything, he can only marvel at her extraordinary physical strength.

For breakfast, I just fried a bag of toast and a few eggs, and heated up a carton of milk to make do.

While Hasegawa Saori was clearing the dishes, Shiratori Seiya sat down at the table and began to think about what he should do next, as usual.

The first thing to consider is Mio's filming schedule. However, both her training and development, as well as her upcoming filming, have already been planned in advance, so we just need to proceed as planned.

Then there's the matter of his exams at school this semester. But to be honest, so much has happened to him this semester that he hasn't completed the part of his original study plan at all. In the end, it's because Saori and Shione's issues have taken up too much of his time.

This is probably what they mean by "plans can't keep up with changes".

Of course, there is still plenty of time until the exams in February, so passing the final exams shouldn't be a problem.

However, compared to all of the above, Shiratori Seiya was more concerned about the 'profitable business' that Fujikawa Shunpei had mentioned to him yesterday.

Unlike himself who is currently studying at school, Fujikawa Shunpei has been working in the workplace for many years and has already established himself in society by the age of forty.

What's even more interesting is that he has now become a television producer.

Not content with his current position, he can still propose profitable business ventures. Shiratori Seiya felt that this couldn't possibly be a small-scale operation.

Although you can make money by just following the routine now, if you want to establish yourself in Tokyo after graduating from university, you absolutely cannot give up any opportunity to make money.

Moreover, I now have Saori and Mio to support.

Needless to say, Mio's expenses, whether it was her personal grooming or her living expenses, were not insignificant.

As for the yarn...

Compared to Mio, she didn't ask for anything, and it was precisely because of this that Shiratori Seiya was even less able to fool her or deceive her true feelings for him.

To be honest, when Saori and I were dating, I rarely took her shopping or out to play. We only went to an amusement park once, and we never went on any trips.

The only gifts I've given her are lipsticks; I've never given her perfume...

I need to at least buy her an apartment in Tokyo and save some money for her.

The less she said it, the more Shiratori Seiya wanted to give it to her. As for his second person to be bound to, Shiratori Seiya believed that there was no better candidate than Shione.

While it's still uncertain whether re-engaging her will allow her to focus on her career, her personality has changed significantly in the six months since we last met. Perhaps using a reward-based psychological mechanism could guide her to concentrate on her career...

Shiratori Seiya considered all the possible ways to make money, and finally his thoughts returned to Fujikawa Shunpei.

Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that Fujikawa Shunpei had set a trap for him, intending to use him to make money...

Shiratori Seiya clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and rested his forehead in thought for a long time.

Ten minutes later, he opened his eyes, glanced at Hasegawa Saori standing by the table pondering the calming incense, and then looked away.

He took out his phone and called Fujikawa Shunpei.

He probably drank all night with the crew again last night. The call didn't go through the first time, so Shiratori Seiya called again.

It wasn't until the third attempt that the call finally went through.

"Hey?"

Just as Shiratori Seiya had expected, Fujikawa Shunpei's voice was hoarse and drowsy, clearly indicating that he wasn't fully awake.

"It is I, Shiratori Seiya."

"Ah... just a moment."

Fujikawa Shunpei responded, rubbed his temples, took the hangover soup his wife handed him, drank a sip, and feeling more alert, he smiled and said:

"Shiratori-kun, I drank too late with Sakai and the others last night, I'm sorry..."

Hearing him being so polite, Shiratori Seiya unconsciously narrowed his eyes.

Japanese workplaces place great emphasis on seniority and rank, and considering their respective positions, he felt that Fujikawa Shunpei didn't need to be so polite to him.

After thinking for a moment, Shiratori Seiya also said with a smile:
"Producer Fujikawa, I'm the one who should apologize. I wasn't feeling well yesterday and spoiled everyone's fun."

"Shiratori-kun wouldn't say something like that. In fact, everyone can understand. After all, everyone gets sick sometimes. You weren't here yesterday, so we didn't know, but we were talking about you..."

After a pause, Fujikawa Shunpei leaned against the headboard, lit a cigarette, and sighed:
"Shiratori-kun, your talent is truly enviable."

In fact, although someone mentioned Shiratori Seiya last night, it was only briefly; the focus of the meal was mainly on Fujikawa.

Moreover, director Sakai Tsukasa was relieved that Shiratori Seiya wasn't there. He thought that with Shiratori Seiya, who couldn't drink, there wouldn't be much to drink with.

Shiratori Seiya naturally knew that Fujikawa Shunpei was just being polite, so he didn't take it to heart. He exchanged a couple of polite words with him, and feeling that the atmosphere had been set enough, he asked directly:

"By the way, Producer Fujikawa, I remember you told me yesterday before you left that you had some things to discuss. Do you recall?"

Upon hearing this, Fujikawa Shunpei reached out and touched his chin; Shiratori Seiya's caution was somewhat unexpected.

Despite her young age, she seems to know a lot about workplace dynamics.

Shiratori Seiya didn't directly mention the word 'business,' and even asked him if he remembered.

This is clearly a way to save face for both sides.

Fujikawa Shunpei thought for a moment and smiled:
"Of course, there is indeed a profitable business opportunity. I was planning to ask you when you have time today so we can have a proper chat."

"Yes, that's what I was thinking too. After all, Producer Fujikawa, you know I'm still in school. Besides writing scripts, I also have school matters to attend to..."

Having first established the initiative regarding the meeting time, Shiratori Seiya continued:
"So I looked at my schedule and, unless it's next weekend, today is the only day I have free time this week."

"Okay, then let's arrange a time this afternoon, and the place will be..."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Shiratori Seiya tidied up, took Saori out for hot pot at noon, bought her some clothes, and sent her home before heading to the location arranged by Fujikawa Shunpei.

Due to traffic congestion, he arrived only twenty minutes early this time. However, as soon as he sat down, he saw Fujikawa Shunpei walk into the restaurant.

Upon meeting, Fujikawa Shunpei's face immediately showed an "I knew it" expression.

After putting down his handbag and ordering coffee from the waiter, he looked at Shiratori Seiya and smiled:
"I knew you would come earlier."

"Isn't Producer Fujikawa the same?"

Upon hearing this, Fujikawa Shunpei waved his hand and said:

"Shiratori-kun, let's address each other by our official titles today."

"it is good."

Shiratori Seiya gave him a deep look and nodded in agreement.

Seeing him nod, Fujikawa Shunpei took a sip of water, then smiled and stared at Shiratori Seiya for a while.

Is there something wrong with my face?

Upon hearing his question, Fujikawa Shunpei stopped beating around the bush and asked directly:
"Shiratori-kun, would you like to start a company?"
