Tokyo Love Story

Since Class A of the first year of high school had just started school, Seina Tsuchiya had specifically instructed that there would be no need for lunch breaks in the future, but everyone must stay in the classroom for today's lunch break to avoid any problems.

She had just given the instructions and then finished a bunch of chores in the office. When she returned to the classroom, she saw the two empty seats.

After asking Ejima Miu, she was about to rush to the playground to catch someone, but she ran into this scene.

I can only say it's too much of a coincidence.

Beichuan Che laughed awkwardly and said, "Listen to my excuse, Sister Rina."

He could tell that although Tsuchiya Serina was angry, she was not as angry as he had imagined, so there was still room for mediation.

"hehe."

Tsugumi Seina rolled her eyes at him, but her gaze fell thoughtfully on Kitagawa Tetsu and Kitaen Rinone.

"Teacher Tsugumi Makoto, I had something to discuss with Kitagawa, and he couldn't persuade me, so he followed me out of the classroom. This matter has nothing to do with him."

Gently pushing Kitagawa Che away, Kitaen Rin stood in front of Tsugumi Seina, lowered her eyebrows, and looked like someone who was admitting her mistake.

Tsugumi Seina looked at Kitaen Rin with some surprise. She never thought that the other party would say these words at this time.

She frowned, her eyes fell on Beichuan Che's face again, and she gave him a fierce look.

"Don't do it again. Go back to the classroom."

Turning around, Rina Tsugumi waved her hand.

She had a subtle premonition that the unlikely possibility that she had been secretly pondering in her heart before seemed, perhaps, probably, to be possible?

See you tomorrow~

Chapter 21 The Stranger

"Kitagawa."

At the corner of the stairs on the first floor, Kitayuan Rinyin called out to Kitachuan Che who was about to go downstairs.

"what happened?"

Beichuan Che turned his eyebrows and looked at her with some confusion.

In his impression, this girl, whether in the past or now, never talks much when she is alone, and rarely takes the initiative to talk about something. Between the roles of narrator and listener, she plays more of the latter.

From this perspective, Kitazono Rin and Ejima Tadashi are surprisingly similar in this respect, both of them are equally taciturn.

"Thank you for what you did just now."

Beiyuan Linyin lowered her eyebrows and thanked him sincerely.

If Beichuan Che hadn't helped, the conflict between her and that girl would probably have continued.

From her personal point of view, she is not afraid of this matter becoming a big deal.

First of all, she was the one who was right. Secondly, she knew Beiyuan Zhengyu's character very well, and her father would definitely support her in such matters.

But then again, on the first day of school, something went wrong, what does Tsugumi Rina, the head teacher, think?

Even if we take a step back and assume that after understanding the whole cause and effect, Tsugumi Makina realizes that she was not the one who initiated the trouble and does not blame her, the school will still hold Tsugumi Makina accountable.

After all, Tsugumi Seina is the teacher of Class A in the first year of high school. As long as she holds this position, it means that whenever there is a problem with the students in her class, the first person the school leaders will look for is her. And judging from the temperament she just showed, she will most likely clean up her own mess.

Beiyuan Rinyin believes that she would never do such a thing as letting others take the responsibility for the consequences of her own actions.

But in that situation, she was in a difficult situation. Moreover, when she was emotional just now, she didn't think so much at all.

If it weren't for Beichuan Che's timely help, she would probably have started to have a headache by now.

She felt weird just thinking about causing trouble for her own teacher on the first day of school.

"There's no need to thank me." Beichuan Che shook his head. "We've known each other for so many years. It would be awkward to thank you for such a small favor."

The matter of the engagement is the matter of the engagement, and his relationship with the Beiyuan family is his relationship with the Beiyuan family. They are one thing and the two do not have to be tied together.

He saw this point quite clearly.

"Well, I owe you a favor."

Kitayuan Rinyin hesitated for a moment and looked at Kitachuan Che's face.

She had an inexplicable feeling that he seemed to have changed.

"Take care of yourself first."

Hearing this, Beichuan Che turned around, waved his hand helplessly, and walked towards the classroom without looking back.

If he just wanted to make Kitaen Rin owe him a favor, he wouldn't have intervened just now and would have just pretended not to see it.

Humph, why are you trying to be cool?

Looking at his leaving back, Beiyuan Linyin complained in her heart, but a hint of complexity flashed across her beautiful eyes.

Beichuan Che has indeed changed. He has become... less annoying.

Two minutes later, Kitaen Rin also returned to the classroom.

*

In the classroom of Class A of Grade 1, the sound of quiet discussions can still be heard.

For this group of high school students, a stable high school life always needs some "surprises", which can be a boy from the next class liking a girl, or a love letter found in someone's shoe cabinet, or the latest popular TV series, or a novel that caused a sensation.

"Have you ever heard of the book 'Hear the Wind Sing'?"

The female student sitting by the window glanced at her deskmate and asked in a low voice.

"Of course I've heard of it. It's the hottest novel recently, and it created a miracle for new authors, except..." The girl who was being talked to paused and sighed with some regret, "It's no longer available. According to the owner of the bookstore where I work, the first batch of prints has been sold out. If you still want to buy it, you have to wait for the second batch of prints."

"Hey, have you seen it?"

The girl sitting by the window looked at her expectantly.

If the other person has also watched it, then they will definitely have a lot of common topics.

"I haven't finished reading it yet." The girl who was being addressed pouted and complained softly, "The store manager took the book home."

"Have you read the group messages in the Line group of Shirakawa High School?"

"what news?"

"The literary club will recruit new students later, and members who participate in club activities can borrow all newly published books for free. This is purchased at the literary club's own expense."

"Does it also include "Hear the Wind Sing"? "

"Yes, but it is said that there is only one copy."

"Then let's go to the literature club later?"

"Okay."

Beichuan Che withdrew his gaze from the source of the sound and returned to his seat thoughtfully.

Regarding the book "Hear the Wind Sing", he could have imagined that it would not sell badly, but he did not expect it to sell so well.

Now it seems that he should strike while the iron is hot and continue.

"Young Master... Che, what did Miss Linyin want to talk to you about just now?"

Kitagawa Che had just sat down at his seat, and before he had even had time to look at what was written on the blackboard, Ejima Miu, who was sitting in front of him, turned around and started a conversation with some curiosity.

Ejima Miao has never cared about other people's gossip, but she has always been very interested in the things that happened to her own master. Especially when this matter involves Kitaen Rin, her curiosity has grown even more.

If it weren't for Beichuan Che's warning look, she might have even ignored the issue of the three rules of address.

"About the engagement." Beichuan Che lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear, "She and I have reached a consensus."

"What consensus?"

Ejima Tadashi had more speculations. The relationship between his young master and Kitaen Rin had never been good, and could even be considered bad. When the two met, they basically didn't say anything and just remained silent.

Under such circumstances, she guessed that the so-called consensus was more like a declaration of divorce to some extent.

"Consensus to end the engagement."

Kitagawa Tetsu had no intention of hiding anything from Ejima Tadashi.

Whether she knew about this matter sooner or later, she would have known it anyway. In other words, there was no such thing as hiding it.

"what??"

After hearing her young master's answer, Ejima Myo was stunned for half a minute before she came back to her senses from her surprise. She paused and carefully confirmed, "Ache, are you serious?"

She knew that the relationship between her young master and Beiyuan Rinyin was not good, and she had thought that Beichuan Che would cancel the engagement, but she never thought he would say it so quickly.

"Why not?"

Beichuan Che nodded and asked back.

"Ok."

Ejima Miu nodded, turned around and continued to flip through her first-year high school textbooks.

Beichuan Che also took advantage of this opportunity to lower his head, took out a piece of draft paper and a pen from his schoolbag, and started making a simple schedule.

Shirakawa High School waived Ejima Tae's part of the tuition, but his part of the tuition was not waived.

There was a number missing from his card.

Regardless of whether they are time travelers or not, for most people, money is something that can never be too much.

Now that the short-term problems have been solved, it’s time to look at the long-term.

At present, the effect of "Hear the Wind Sing" has exceeded his expectations, so in the next period of time, he should take advantage of this momentum and continue to bring in other equally excellent works.

He does not plan to put those mature business ideas on the agenda immediately. For now, there is no rush. First, there are no suitable people, and second, there is not enough money.

The meal must be eaten bite by bite, and the road must be walked step by step.

As for now...

Kitagawa Che took out his mobile phone from his pocket and saw a message from Kamino Kaoru on Line.

Tomorrow, she hopes they can meet to discuss their future cooperation.

The belated first chapter, please vote.

Chapter 22 Undercurrent

As evening approached, the sky gradually darkened, and the skyline in the distance, dyed red by the setting sun, began to shrink. Pieces of fiery clouds were gradually swallowed up by the falling night. The night began to gradually occupy large areas of the city sky, and the dividing line between morning and evening seemed to be materialized at this time.

On the 18th floor of the Baiyuanchuan Building, inside the president's office.

It's quiet in the office.

Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, Bai Yuanchuan lowered his head and looked out the window.

On the main city road under the building, there is still a lot of traffic, and the sounds of the engines gathered together, which is somewhat annoying. The street lights on the sidewalk have been turned on for a long time. The commuters under the lights are like ants returning to their nests in the distance. Occasionally, someone stops, answers the phone, covers his ears on the side of the main road with his hands, and has a long conversation with the person on the other end of the phone.

Boom, boom, boom.

There was a regular knock on the door. Bai Yuanchuan withdrew his gaze from the window, turned back and said "Come in" to the person outside the door.

With the sound of a door being pushed open gently, a female face that he was very familiar with came into his sight.

Before Bai Yuanchuan could speak, Shen Yexun, who had walked up to him, had already started reporting, "President, I have conveyed your message to Beichuan."

"So soon?" Bai Yuanchuan glanced at Shen Ye Xun in surprise. He didn't have a deep impression of the editor of Bai Yuanchuan Library. The only thing he remembered before the release of "Hear the Wind Sing" was that she had been in the company for more than two years and was an old employee. He thought about it and asked, "What did he say?"

"He didn't say much, just replied with 'OK', which was considered as his agreement."

Speaking of this, Kaoru Kamino felt somewhat helpless.

Logically speaking, at Beichuan Che's age, when she talked to him about success, he was always too indifferent. The only things that could arouse his excitement were "practical" things, such as royalties and profits.

But from another perspective, this is also a good thing. If Beichuan Che is indifferent to everything, she will have a headache. Such an author is difficult to communicate with, and even more difficult to interact with. To put it nicely, he has a big heart, but to put it bluntly, he is too Buddhist.

In the fame-seeking and money-chasing circle of Tokyo authors, this kind of personality has both advantages and disadvantages, about half and half.

"He doesn't care about that at all?"

Bai Yuanchuan met Kanno Xun's eyes.

Even though Kanno Kaoru had only met Kitagawa Che a few times, he still knew the other better than Kitagawa did.

"In terms of fame and fortune, relatively speaking, he cares more about the latter." Shen Ye Xun honestly told her observations, "He is not the kind of person who only yearns for poetry and distant places. What he seeks is more practical."
