What Rita has to do now is equivalent to forcing a full-time author who has a lot of love for writing novels and can afford a decent amount of royalties to be sent to a factory to do repetitive work on the assembly line.

Maybe the salary is decent, and maybe the benefits can keep up.

But...why would the author be willing?

After all, there is no more happiness!

Rita also understands that she will inevitably experience various difficulties and obstacles. She has been mentally prepared to face the hard difficulty since coming to the UK.

However, what she didn't expect was that it was not just hard, it was simply hell.

Especially when Qin Ushu showed signs of physical discomfort, her former roommate seemed to have suddenly changed. He drove her out with an unheard-of tough tone, and there was a heartfelt anger in his eyes. It was something she had never seen before.

Mashiro, what have you experienced during your time in Japan?

Thinking of this, Rita subconsciously tightened her tight clothes while squatting in the corner next to the gate of Sakurasou trying to resist the cold wind.

After getting off the plane, she took a taxi and went straight to Sakurasou. Being unfamiliar with the place, she didn't even find a hotel in advance.

Although her luggage was prepared with ID cards, passports, bank cards, etc., Rita did not intend to leave immediately after being rejected by Mashiro.

Choosing to leave directly would only show that her intentions were not so firm. In order to be able to definitely bring Mashiro back to England, she decided to wait and see for a while longer.

She didn't believe that Mashiro could really be so cruel as to let her squat outside all night.

Persistence is victory!

Yebati!Levi babe!

But then again, the wind at night is really cold...

Rita looked up at the cold night sky and breathed out a breath of white mist, which was instantly blown away by the cold wind.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of opening the window above her head.

Then a familiar voice sounded.

"what are you doing here?"

"Well?"

Rita, who had hugged her knees and crouched in a huddle under the wall a second ago, shivering, stood up straight instantly. The low temperature made her hands and feet slightly inflexible, but this did not prevent her from turning around. At the same time, smooth out the wrinkles on the clothes.

When facing Qin Xianshu, she turned back into the perfect and elegant British girl.

"Good evening, is it because you were worried about me that you went to the window to look at me? Although I am very grateful for your kindness, I would be even happier if it was Mashiro instead..."

"Hong Kong, this is my room. You are squatting outside the window of my room with half your head at night. Do you think I should open the window to see what's going on?" Qin Uanshu interrupted expressionlessly.

"Eh, is that so?"

It was dark outside but bright inside. Through the bright light in the window, Rita could clearly see the furnishings in Qin Uanshu's bedroom.

Bed, wardrobe, computer desk, air conditioner... this is indeed a bedroom.

Qin Mianshu, who could lie on the bed at will, was undoubtedly the owner of this bedroom.

Through the gap between Qin Xianshu's body and the window, Rita looked in quietly.

When the girl's eyes reached the top of the bookcase placed against the wall, she was suddenly stunned. When she wanted to tilt her head to see more clearly, her sight was blocked.

Sensing that the other party's attention had shifted, Qin Mianshu closed the window a little, and at the same time turned sideways to further block the gap between Rita and the bookshelf.

"If there's nothing else, I'll close the window. I also suggest you find a hotel to stay as soon as possible. Although the security in Chiba is pretty good, you don't have to worry even if a girl walks alone at night. But if you continue like this It’s true that you can catch a cold from the cold.”

"Um……"

Rita pondered for a moment and put a smile on her plain face again.

"Thank you for your concern, but compared to me, brother Qin, are you really okay with your health? And if I was the cause of your discomfort just now, then I apologize... Of course, I sincerely do so."

"It's nothing, it's just that my sensitive nerves were touched a bit. It's fine now." Qin Uanshu shook his head.

He had no intention of blaming Rita. It would be better to say that what Rita said was said by more than 90.00% of parents in the world, but the wording was slightly different.

For example, "Why don't you have the time..." and "What's the use of doing this? You might as well..." can be said to be commonly used templates.

In the eyes of many parents, their children are more like a trumpet in an idle online game than a living, self-aware person. They think it is a sin not to go out and fight automatically every day to wipe out all the fatigue points. , is shameful.

However, the worst thing is that such people still account for the vast majority, turning this outrageous trend into a general environment.

What's the point of correcting one or two in this situation?

"By the way, brother Qin, is it possible that you and Mashiro are boyfriend and girlfriend?" Rita asked suddenly, a little confused.

"……Yes."

Although he didn't understand the girl's intention in asking this question, Qin Xianshu still nodded and immediately issued an order to expel the guests.

"Okay, I'm going to close the window, it's very cold."

"Ah."

This time Rita didn't say anything else, just nodded cheerfully.

She seemed to finally turn around and leave, but before leaving, she seemed to suddenly remember something and turned back with a mysterious smile.

"But you still have to be careful. If you stay with Mashiro, sooner or later it will be damaged... just like me."

"what?"

Qin Xianshu was about to close the window, but when he heard Rita's words, he stopped closing the window in shock.

He really didn't hear clearly. The wind was blowing loudly outside, and the girl's voice was soft, so he only heard some vague words.

What "together with Mashiro...to break...me".

Stop, stop, stop, what kind of bad lines are these?

However, Rita had already gone away at this time, and all that was left to him was the figure of the girl dragging her suitcase away casually.

And the gentle words floating in the wind.

"I will come to see you again this weekend, and I will take you to see something good."

? ?

Chapter 249///Yano is in a surprise attack///

After confirming that Rita was really gone this time, Qin Xianshu breathed a sigh of relief and closed the window.

Are you coming again on the weekend...

Really persistent.

Thinking about it in his mind, he also closed the curtains.

Just when Qin Ushu turned around and was about to sit down at the computer desk, the bedroom door was suddenly opened from the outside, and Mashiro Shiina walked in with his eyes lowered.

"truth?"

Qin Sanshu, who sensed something was wrong, immediately went to greet him.

The door was closed, but the girl didn't hug her or say anything as usual, she just stood there silently without saying a word, just like a child who had done something wrong.

After a while, she spoke in a low voice.

"Where's Rita..."

"Let's go. Just left before you came."

Qin Xianshu pursed her lips toward the window and told her everything that had happened before, including Rita saying she would come back before leaving.

After hearing this, Mashiro became even more silent. She put her hands around Qin Ushu's waist and hugged him tightly, burying her face in the latter's chest, as if she had finally found her backbone.

"Why is this..."

She murmured, her delicate little face now full of depression.

"Obviously Rita was the first to support me..."

"What do you support? Draw comics?"

Qin Xianshu also softened her tone and responded by picking up the girl as gently as possible, and sat down on the bedside.

He let Mashiro sit across his lap, one hand hooked around the waist, and the other hand kept comforting her, as if coaxing a child.

"Um……"

Shiina Mashiro nodded slightly.

She leaned her forehead against Qin Uanshu's chest, lowered her head, and her long golden hair fell from the side of her face like a waterfall, blurring the expression on the girl's face.

"Rita taught me computers... Rita taught me how to surf the Internet... Rita also taught me comics... But why..."

No matter how the girl couldn't figure it out, it was obviously her close friend who had known and had friendship with her for more than ten years. He was obviously the first person to see her lack of interest in traditional art and take the initiative to recommend comics to her. It was not easy. When they met again, he said that he wanted her to give up comics.

This in the end is why?

"I think this may not all come from Rita's personal wishes." Qin Ushu thought for a while and said, "As you said, Mashiro, she was the first to recommend comics to you, right? ?"

Everyone has two sides of good and evil. Qin Ushu is accustomed to making assumptions about others from the perspective of evil in human nature. This does not mean that he cannot think about problems from the good side.

On the bright side, Rita was the first to realize that Mashiro was not very fond of traditional art, so she took the initiative to recommend comics to him. As a close friend, she should support Mashiro's personal wishes to the greatest extent possible.

On the evil side, Rita's reason for recommending comics to Mashiro is most likely not out of good intentions, but she simply wants to waste Mashiro's energy and talent in traditional art with comics.

After all, comics are just like online articles. They are at the bottom of the contempt chain in the art and literature industries, and they are also very voluminous. If you only have a talent for drawing but not the ability to tell good stories, you will have no chance of getting ahead.

But in this case, she would be even less likely to take the initiative to call Mashiro back to paint art paintings.

Putting aside personal likes and dislikes and considering it purely from a rational perspective, Rita had no reason to do this.

This kind of analysis sounds a bit too realistic and cruel, but under the premise that Qin Ushu omitted the analysis part and only talked about the results, this statement was like a shot in the arm for Mashiro.

"...Really?" The girl raised her head slightly in hope.

"Although it's not 100%, it's still 90.00%." ​​Qin Umbrella said comfortably.

The remaining one percent is unpredictable... he said in his heart.

"But in order to completely confirm my guess, I still want to ask something. That is, Mashiro, you came to Japan to draw comics. Did your family know?"

"..."

It was obviously a question sentence, but Qin Ushu's tone was full of determination.

As expected, as soon as the words were spoken, the girl lowered her head in silence again.

"Mom knows, dad... doesn't know."

"what--"

Okay, the case is solved, it turns out they are from the same world and the same kind of father.

Holding back the nausea that he had finally suppressed, Qin Ushu patted Mashiro's head comfortingly.

"Don't worry, I will find a way to handle Rita's side, but as for Mashiro's father's side..."

"Newcomer Award..."

"Huh? What?"

The girl's sudden murmur made Qin Xianshu unable to hear clearly.

Shiina Mashiro suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up persistently and seriously.

"As long as I can get the Newcomer Award, maybe I can convince my dad!"

"Oh?"

Qin Sanshu was stunned for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth happily.

"Have you decided to prove it with actual results?"

"Ok!"

"Are you sure you will win the Newcomer Award?"

"I may not have been sure before, but now... I can do it!"

There seemed to be fire dancing in the girl's eyes.

……

The matter regarding Rita has been settled for now.
