My Romance Simulation with Them

"But, Nango-kun, you're wasting your precious study time on someone like me."

Matsuzaka Sayuri looked up.

She has lived more than half her life.

The first half of my life was filled with unbearable memories and regrets.

It would be a complete waste for Nanxiang to spend his time on someone as worthless as her.

She stood up, wanting to continue speaking.

Before he could even stand up, Nanxiang Shi had already pressed down on his shoulder.

What does it mean to call someone like me?

Nango shook his head and corrected her statement: "In my opinion, Aunt Xiaobaihe is now undoubtedly a competent aunt... both for Sugar and for me."

His voice was calm.

His words were very calm, without a trace of emotion.

Yet it is such a simple statement.

But this left Matsuzaka Sayuri, who was about to speak, speechless.

In blue eyes.

At this moment, my eyes were also filled with tears.

She suddenly realized something.

I have been trying to correct the path I should be on...

Perhaps it was just to hear this one sentence.

She wanted to hear from Sugar, Nango Toki... to acknowledge her hard work all along.

Even when she was criticized at work, or even when she was harassed by others like today, she endured it all.

and so--

"No need to hold back, Aunt Lily. If you have anything to say, or if you've suffered any grievances, you can say it all now without any problem."

Nanxiang spoke like this, placing his hand on her shoulder.

It was only at this moment that Sayuri Matsuzaka felt the warmth of Toki Nango's hand.

This is roughly the temperature...

This temperature... saved Sugar from her emotional deprivation...

And at this moment... this temperature... will also save her...

[After your heart-to-heart talk, your relationship with Sayuri Matsuzaka has progressed further.]

Similarly, you learned from Sayuri Matsuzaka that the Matsuzaka family is currently facing financial difficulties.

[Although Sayuri Matsuzaka had previously saved some money.]

However, that portion of the money can only be used to pay for Matsuzaka Sato's high school tuition for the next year.

The Matsuzaka family currently has very little money left that they can actually use.

Not to mention Matsuzaka Satou's university aspirations.

That, in turn, requires a large sum of money.

It's fair to say that the Matsuzaka family's financial problems are no longer negligible.

Chapter 284. The Publishing Industry Has Always Been Extremely Profitable (4000 words)

Through your conversation with Sayuri Matsuzaka, you realize that the Matsuzaka family's current financial situation simply cannot support Satou Matsuzaka's dream of going to university.

You begin to think about how to earn enough money to improve the Matsuzaka family's financial situation.

Fortunately, you possess an extraordinary talent for writing, easily producing excellent articles and novels that most people cannot.

However, whether it's writing novels or articles, the process of earning money is always very lengthy.

[This "long period" refers not only to the time it took to write the novel.]

[More importantly, you need to submit your manuscript to a publisher, which requires review by an editor. The editor then decides whether to accept it, followed by signing a contract and publication. After publication, the manuscript needs to be sold, and only then can you receive royalties.]

This process has been far too long for both you and the Matsuzaka family, who desperately need the money.

In order not to affect Matsuzaka Satou's enthusiasm for learning, and in order to resolve this situation, you decide—

[1. Both Akane Shinjo and Rio Futaba are rare heiresses from prominent families in Tokyo. Therefore, given your boyfriend's status, borrowing a few million yen from them for emergencies shouldn't be a problem.]

Second, I will absolutely not be a kept man! I'm sure I can come up with a perfect solution.

[3. Why not ask the all-knowing Yamada A-Meng?]

[IV. Personal simulation.]

Nanxiang only glanced at the options before his lips began to twitch.

What the heck is option one?

This was the first time he had ever seen someone describe being a kept man so elegantly and tastefully.

And borrow a little bit...?

I'm guessing when I'm in Nanxiang.

Even if he did ask Rio Futaba and Akane Shinjo for several million yen in emergency funds.

When it's time to repay the loan, these two people probably won't accept it.

And most importantly... why are the only two options Shinjo Akane and Futaba Rio?

Where is Ryo Yamada?

Isn't Ms. Yamada also a young lady from a wealthy family?

Is it because they look down on Yamada Shinjin?

不 ...

They might actually look down on them.

Nango thought of Yamada Ryo's habit of spending money extravagantly, which led to his pocket money being quickly spent and him frequently digging up wild vegetables to eat.

this woman.

We should be grateful that we didn't ask him for money.

He even asked her for money?

Is this a joke?

When Nanxiang was about to leave option one aside, he turned his attention to options two and three.

The stance of the two options is very simple: rely on your own efforts to achieve a comfortable life.

But this is extremely difficult in the writing industry.

You should know that when the simulation of 'Nishiki Chizuka and Inoue Takina' was conducted.

In the simulation, he spent one or two years accumulating experience before writing his first novel and earning money after entering university.

In Japan, it's incredibly difficult to write novels without connections; the barriers to entry are extremely high.

So, according to the process of elimination...

"Three options."

When Nango glanced at the three options, he saw the one that read, "Why not ask the all-knowing Yamada Amu?"

As expected of Ms. Yamada.

The emulator even gave her a three-option option.

but...

Rather than calling her 'the all-powerful Yamada A-Meng,' it's more accurate to say that Yamada Ryo possesses advantages that neither Shinjo Akane nor Futaba Rio have.

That is, she has a father who has always doted on her.

Shinjo's parents barely paid any attention to Shinjo Akane.

Rio Futaba's parents live abroad most of the year.

Only Yamada Ryo's parents stayed by her side.

So she might be able to connect with editors at publishing houses through her father's network of connections.

With that in mind, Nango Toki finally decided to choose the three options.

Anyway, this isn't the first time I've been living off Ms. Yamada.

It's just that I'm very familiar with the process.

[You decided to ask Yamada Ryo primarily because you hoped Yamada's father could use his connections to get you in touch with the relevant staff at the publishing house.]

But before that, you decided to finish writing the novel first.

This shouldn't be difficult for someone as talented as you.

You spent your entire winter break immersed in writing, and ultimately produced two short stories and one novella.

After completing the draft, you contacted Yamada Ryo.

[If it were anyone else's request, Yamada Ryo probably wouldn't care at all, but you are someone she has always cherished.]

[She, who has always had no interest in anything other than music, naturally agreed to your request.]

Of course, she also asked you for things like kisses, hugs, and photos... she especially liked photos with a high degree of exposure.

According to her, this kind of photo is the most useful.

easy to use?

Wait a minute.

Ms. Yamada, what exactly do you want to do with my photo?
