Tokyo Love Story
Page 3
What kind of period drama are you from, the second female lead?
Beichuan Che sighed and explained in a gentle manner, "There is no such thing as overstepping the boundaries. For example, according to the status of a close attendant, when necessary, you have to sleep with the emperor, right? But right now, which close attendant would do this?"
"If the young master wants, I can do it too."
Ejima Mia placed her hands on her thighs and buried her head even lower.
what! ?
Oh my god, are you serious?!
"I'm sorry, the example I gave was not very appropriate. What I meant was..." Beichuan Che hesitated for a moment and finally gave up resisting. Including today, he had mentioned this topic eight or nine times, but each time ended with his defeat. He also faced the reality.
He paused and said, "Forget it. I can't beat you. Outside, you can call me by my first name or my last name, but you can't call me Young Master. Understand?"
"clear."
This time, Ejima Mia did not insist.
"Oh, by the way, you don't need to worry about living expenses anymore. The publisher has accepted the novel I submitted before and gave me a lot of royalties." Beichuan Che had already thought about this issue and he didn't intend to hide it from the other party. "Maybe in the next few days, the money will be credited to my account."
The original version of "Hear the Wind Sing" has more than 40,000 words, while the "Hear the Wind Sing" written by him was supplemented to about 60,000 or 70,000 words. Normally speaking, according to that share, the actual money received would be enough for the two of them to live a normal life for more than half a year.
"Also, how is your grandma's health lately?"
Kitagawa Che asked another question.
Ejima Tae was sent to the Kitagawa family by her grandmother. As for the impression of Ejima Tae's grandmother, the only thing left in the memory of the original owner of this body was a slightly old face and the idea that she was not in good health.
"Is she in good health recently?"
Ejima Tadashi was silent for a while, and his tone became a little deeper.
Chapter 4 says, You will restore the glory of the time traveler
The efficiency of the Baiyuanchuan Library is quite high, at least much higher than Beichuan Che had imagined.
At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, he received a text message about the receipt of royalties and a Line message from Kawashimaru Kamino. The gist of the message was that Kashiwagawa Bunko had already transferred the money and asked him to pay attention to the royalties. At the same time, his contract would be returned to him in the near future and he was asked to leave a contact address.
In the living room, after replying to Kamino Kaoru's message, Kitagawa Che, who was sitting on the sofa, put away his phone and turned to look at Ejima Tadashi who was sitting on a short sofa next to him.
He thought for a moment and broke the silence, "The money has arrived. Our financial problems have been solved in the short term."
"Ah? Oh...wait, what did you say, Master!?"
Ejima Mia was obviously stunned for a moment, but she still keenly captured the key words.
Ever since the incident in the Kitagawa family, their lives have not been stable. They have been faced with difficulties caused by financial distress from time to time. Even until just now, she was still thinking about where to start to earn some money for tuition and living expenses.
She didn't take seriously what Beichuan Che said about money last night.
She has been with Beichuan Che for almost ten years. She knows that her young master is a very capable and talented person. She does not doubt his talent and is even quite confident in it.
However, some gifts and talents need to accumulate to a certain level before they can bear fruit.
If she wanted to cash in on this talent in the short term and earn enough money for them to live on, she really didn't know how to trust him.
"I said the money has arrived."
Kitagawa Che repeated what he had just said, then took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened the text message about the royalties, and then handed the phone to Ejima Tadashi.
He could see that the girl in front of him obviously didn't quite believe what she said.
However, he can understand it.
Some things are indeed not enough to be proven by words.
Furthermore, during the six months after they moved out of the Kitagawa family, all the household expenses were basically paid for by Ejima Miu.
When the money each month is not enough, she will find a way to go out and do part-time work to supplement the family income. In addition, she also has to take on the responsibility of taking care of the original owner of this body.
After all, the latter is simply autistic.
From this perspective, combined with what I just said, any normal person would not believe this statement and might even worry about his or her own mental state.
In fact, the actual situation was very similar to what he imagined.
Ejima Tadashi's eyes were full of complexity.
After staring at each other for three and a third minutes, the girl who called herself "Young Master" still couldn't persuade him, so she took the phone and looked at it with lowered brows.
The content of the text message was reflected in Ejima Tadashi's eyes.
It is a seven-digit balance starting with two.
Looking at the numbers, she fell silent.
She thought her young master was joking.
She had even made the corresponding mental preparations. Even if she did not see the text message of the money arriving, she would cooperate with Beichuan Che and maintain his face.
But later on, she would still tactfully mention some things that should be said, such as telling people not to be too ambitious and so on.
But the content of the text message was already in front of her, and the clarity of the black and white words was fully reflected at this moment, so she could only swallow those words back into her throat.
As for the possibility that the text message was a prank, she had not considered it. She had been with Beichuan Che for ten years, and she knew him. She knew that he would not joke about these things.
"What is this money?"
Ejima Miao raised her eyebrows and looked at Kitagawa Che, with undisguised confusion in her eyes.
"For the royalties that Baiyuanchuan Library gave me, you can return your phone to the desktop and then open the photo album, which contains the specific contracts I took." Beichuan Che gave Ejima Miao a look that said 'listen to me first'. He paused and added, there is also a message from the editor just now, you can confirm all of this."
Ejima Tadashi nodded obediently, and confirmed what Kitagawa Tetsu said one by one according to what he said.
After reading the relevant photos and messages, she raised her head and looked at Beichuan Che again, but the doubt in her eyes did not decrease, on the contrary, it increased a lot.
"Ask whatever you want to ask, and I'll answer you as best I can."
Beichuan Che did not show any impatience at all.
He knew very well that he had to get through this hurdle sooner or later, and instead of dragging it out, it would be better to do it quickly. He had to explain it anyway, it was just a matter of sooner or later.
Their eyes met in the air.
But this time, Kitagawa Che had miscalculated. Ejima Miu just shook his head and handed the phone back to him.
"You, aren't you going to ask?"
Beichuan Che took the phone and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Ejima Miu shook her head, "I believe you."
She knew that if she asked, her young master would answer her, but the answers to some questions were not important.
"Okay." Beichuan Che was slightly startled, then burst into laughter, and then talked about his plan, "I will transfer two-thirds of this money to the card you use for your part-time job, which will be used for daily expenses and living expenses, and then transfer some pocket money to your other card. Of course, I may not be able to give you too much pocket money, but it's better to have it than not, right?"
"As for pocket money, there's no need for that. I..."
Ejima Mio had been poor before, and she knew very well how difficult it was to make money. That was why she was so grateful to the Kitagawa couple for taking care of her.
"Stop." Kitagawa Che frowned and interrupted Ejima Miao's words, "This is the master's order to the attendant, do you understand?"
During this period of time, he also figured out how to communicate with Ejima Myo.
Apart from how she addressed herself and how she positioned herself, in most matters, even if her opinion differed from mine, as long as she acted like she did just now, she would obey her.
Every time he said this, when he saw Ejima Miu biting her lips with a pitiful look on her face, as if saying, "You are cheating and bullying me," he always felt a little guilty in his heart.
"Too cunning."
Ejima Miu lowered her eyebrows and muttered something in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
Beichuan Che coughed lightly, pretending not to hear and continued asking.
"I see."
Ejima Myo pursed her lips, but her voice became a little louder and more honest.
"Also, I want to ask you two favors."
As Beichuan Che spoke, he picked up the remaining apple in the fruit plate on the coffee table.
That was bought by Ejima Tadashi during a discount day at the shopping street.
"Let me do this, Master."
Just when he was about to reach out for the fruit knife, Ejima Mia was already looking at him with a smile, her white and tender palms slightly spread out with an expression that said 'give it to me'.
I shouldn't have reached that point yet, right?
Beichuan Che hesitated for a moment and instinctively wanted to refuse, but after meeting her eyes, he still gave in.
He handed the apple to Ejima Tadashi.
"Master, please tell me what you want me to do for you."
Taking the apple, Ejima Miu picked up the fruit knife and began to peel the skin with ease. The apple skin was peeled off in circles but did not break.
"First of all, let's go to the supermarket this afternoon. Aren't we running out of a lot of things at home?"
Beichuan Che remembered it quite clearly. The bottle of shower gel at home was almost empty, and the bristles of the toothbrush were mostly curled and needed to be replaced.
"Yes, we need to buy shower gel, dishwashing liquid, toothbrush and toothpaste. Here." Ejima Miu put down the fruit knife and handed the cut apple to Kitagawa Che. "And what's the second thing?"
"The second thing is that I hope you can be my teacher."
Kitagawa Che took the apple, picked up the fruit knife that Ejima Tae had just put down, and cut the apple into two halves. After a rough comparison, he handed the slightly larger half to Ejima Tae.
The latter instinctively wanted to refuse, but this time, Beichuan Che used his eyes to stop her from refusing, interrupting her spell. He forced her to take the half of the apple, paused, and continued, "Whether it's studying, or fighting, which I was not interested in before but now suddenly interested in."
For some special reasons, Ejima Mio has systematically studied fighting.
Judging from the impression in his memory, in the field of fighting, Ejima Miyabi's level can be said to be outrageous and exaggerated, to a level that ordinary people cannot understand at all. Even in kendo, she has quite good attainments.
To make an inappropriate analogy, it's fortunate that Kitagawa Tetsu and Ejima Tadashi are not enemies, otherwise it would probably be a classic battle between a time traveler and the son of the plane.
However, if such a situation really happened, Beichuan Che could just type GG amid laughter.
The outcome of the battle between the time traveler named Wang and the son of the dimension named Liu is still vivid in our memory.
But as far as the current situation is concerned, the script he got was not this one. It was more like the classic "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west". After all, all the elements were already in place, and the only thing missing was the last step, which he had put on the agenda - breaking off the engagement.
"Master, are you serious? I mean in fighting."
Ejima Miu raised her eyebrows, her eyes became less gentle and more serious.
"Yes."
Kitagawa Che met Ejima Tadashi's gaze, his eyes were clear and equally serious.
Bullying is common in Tokyo's schools.
Although he thinks he has nothing to do with this phenomenon, pointing out the corresponding skills and not using them are two completely different concepts.
As a time traveler, although the system template is not that powerful, it at least brings considerable convenience. There is no bottleneck. You just need to follow the steps and you can become stronger step by step.
So, with such an opportunity in front of us and a ready-made teacher, why not learn?
Chapter 5 Yuanchi Department Store
At exactly four o'clock in the afternoon, according to the plan, Kitagawa Che and Ejima Miu left home and walked to the nearest Genchi Department Store.
As a department store company funded by non-Tokyo locals, Genchi Department Store has always been known for its affordable prices and high-quality services.
For the same merchandise, the average price of this department store is often lower because of occasional promotions and discounts, and the quality of its products is better than that of other department stores.
With better product quality, better service and lower prices, this foreign department store gradually gained a foothold in Bunkyo Ward. From being called a "department store opened by Osaka people" by residents at the beginning, it has become a "pretty good department store" and a "department store worth visiting."
About fifteen minutes later, Kitagawa Tetsu and Ejima Tadashi arrived at their destination.
After entering the first floor of Genchi Department Store and confirming the direction at the signboard next to the door, Kitagawa Che pulled Ejima Myo onto the escalator.
It seemed that the students’ vacation was not over yet. Even though we chose a time when there were relatively fewer people, there were still a lot of people on the escalator.
The passers-by around them looked at Kitagawa Che and Ejima Tadashi with some curiosity. The combination of handsome man and beautiful woman is eye-catching wherever they go.
However, a few girls who looked like high school students were whispering to each other and turned their heads frequently, looking unconsciously at Beichuan Che's face. One of them even took out her cell phone, looking eager to strike up a conversation as soon as she got off the escalator.
Subconsciously, Ejima Miu frowned and moved closer to Kitagawa Che.
She hated the feeling of having her young master coveted by others.
