Tokyo Love Story

Or rather, it's a bit too blunt.

"Don't make that expression." Bai Yuan Yamei shook her head, with a look of distress on her face. "You still have a lot of time, don't you? Including choosing Tokyo University, it was actually because of him, wasn't it?"

In her opinion, there was only one reason why her daughter decided to change her college application at the last minute.

But she didn't intend to interfere with her daughter's choice.

After all, she had previously suggested that her daughter apply to the University of Tokyo.

At the moment, this choice can only be said to coincide with her thoughts.

“I don’t deny the reasons for choosing Todai.”

After swallowing the apple in her mouth into her throat, Kashiwagen Shiori took a deep breath and admitted it frankly.

"There is still a lot of time. I don't think there is any need to deny this." Bai Yuan Yamei glanced at her daughter and stood up. "You are still young, and so is he. For you, there are still plenty of opportunities between you and him, right?"

"maybe."

Kashiwagen Shiori responded perfunctorily, not very interested.

"Smile, don't be so pessimistic, cheerful girls are more popular."

Baiyuan Yamei straightened her trousers, stood up, and walked towards the kitchen with her long legs.

It's time to cook at this point.

"Hmm~"

Kashiwagen Shiori snorted nonchalantly, then bit the apple viciously, as if venting her dissatisfaction.

"Oh, right." As if she suddenly remembered something, before leaving the living room, Bai Yuan Yamei stopped walking towards the kitchen, turned her head and asked, "Do you know who said this?"

"who is it?"

Kashiwagen Shiori was still biting the apple fiercely.

"Your sweetheart, Kitagawa Che."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kashiwagen Shiori's expression suddenly became interesting.

See you all tomorrow~

Chapter 442 Travel

For most viewers attracted to the cinema by the promotional film, "Initial D" is undoubtedly worth the price of admission.

As a result, word of mouth spread, and with the praise of the first batch of audiences, more and more people flocked to the cinema, providing batch after batch of audiences for "Initial D".

But many things are like this. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. The more people there are, the more mixed reviews will emerge one by one.

Many viewers believe that the Easter egg at the end of the movie is a hint that the male protagonist has found a new happiness, which is a good ending. However, some viewers believe that the girl who is beautifully dressed and looks like a rich girl is the owner of a certain team. They are here to invite the male protagonist to join the new team. As for whether he is emotional or not, they think it is unlikely.

Of course, there are also some viewers who feel that this Easter egg is too deliberate, and it is a bit added to prevent the ending from being bad.

But no matter what, the reviews of "Initial D" on major movie websites are pretty good, and it even got a high score of 7.8 on a well-known film review app.

From the perspective of a commercial movie, it is already quite good for a commercial movie to get such a rating, or it is already equated with success.

The continued rise in popularity of "All the Way North" on music websites also supports this point.

Only four days after the release of "Initial D", "Dear Mr. North" has already surpassed the second place on the Hot Songs Chart with a crushing advantage, leading in nearly a quarter of all data.

The most important thing is that this is just the beginning. There is no doubt that before "Initial D" is released, the popularity of "All the Way North" will continue to rise until it will firmly win the TOP1 of this year's annual hot song list.

However, the better the performance of "All the Way North" is, the more Kitagawa Che will have an indescribable headache. In a sense, this can be regarded as a happy trouble.

Anyway, it seems that after seeing the effect brought by "Dear Mr. North", many directors contacted Kawai Masago during this period, and then Mr. Kawai Masago contacted himself. In the past two days alone, he has rejected no less than ten song requests.

It just so happened that the people who came to him to collaborate were not little-known directors, but all of them were well-known figures in the directing world.

In their own words, this is called a strong alliance.

But Beichuan Che declined them all.

It's not that he's putting on airs, but he really has no interest in entering the film industry and cooperating with movies.

At least that's the case for now.

Time flies by like this, and in the blink of an eye, July is slowly coming to an end.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Kitagawa Che familiarly opened the map software in the car's central control. After setting the destination, he fastened his seat belt and started the car.

In fact, according to his original plan, he was going to take the Shinkansen, and at most he would change to a bus or other means of transportation, but after he checked the information and read other people's travel experiences on the Internet, he finally gave up the idea and chose to drive there.

First of all, he has had a driver's license for a while, and he is no longer the driver without a license when he and Rina-san made a big scene. Furthermore, he has plenty of time now, and it is only more than 200 kilometers from Tokyo to Yamagata Prefecture. If you drive, it's not too far, only about three hours.

Of course, the most critical point is that it is relatively more convenient to drive there by yourself. Except for the torment of finding a parking space, everything else is fine.

However, he had called the staff in advance and asked the staff there. According to them, parking spaces near Yinchuan Hot Spring are very easy to find, and the hotel will also provide parking services.

"One last time, make sure that everything that needs to be closed has been closed, right?"

Kitagawa Che raised his eyebrows and looked at the rearview mirror in the car.

With the help of the reflection of the mirror, he looked at Ejima Tadashi who was sitting in the back row.

"It's closed."

Ejima Miao nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer.

In this regard, she has always been very careful, and before going out, she has repeatedly confirmed that there is no problem.

, then, let’s go.”

Kitagawa Che withdrew his gaze, and after observing the roads in the residential area, he gently stepped on the accelerator.

The black car drove steadily out of the garage and merged into the driveway of the residential area.

For him, this was the first time for him to take such a self-driving trip, whether before or after the journey.

"Speaking of which, this is my first time traveling like this."

Beiyuan Rinyin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned her head and looked at the gradually receding street scene outside the car window, feeling very relaxed.

Her parents had taken her to many places, but a self-driving trip like this was indeed quite new.

She remembered clearly that her mother had said something meaningful to her before.

——If you really fall in love with someone and want to spend the rest of your life with him, then after becoming boyfriend and girlfriend, find a suitable time and go on a trip together that is not far or near.

Whether it is suitable or not, you will have the answer in your heart after this trip.

"Haven't uncle and aunt ever traveled by car?"

Beichuan Che asked with some curiosity.

According to the chat between Beiyuan Risa and him, her uncle and aunt often took Rinne out to play.

In my aunt's words, just staying at home and working on something often doesn't solve the problem.

"No." Rinyin shook her head and gave a negative answer, "If they have a choice, they will choose a faster and more convenient means of transportation."

In my father's words, this will not let the long process of the journey wear away the expectations for the destination.

"For example, airplanes, Shinkansen, etc.?"

Kitagawa Che put his hands on the steering wheel and lightly pressed on the brakes.

They have arrived at the main road outside the residential area. According to the directions on the map, they can get on the highway in about fifteen minutes of driving in the city.

"Yes."

Beiyuan Linyin raised her small chin, looking past the cars on the road and landing on the sidewalk.

Her beautiful eyes reflected the street scene at this moment.

Under the bright sunshine, a couple holding hands were discussing something with smiles on their faces. Although she couldn't hear the specific content of their conversation due to the distance, from the excited expressions on their faces, it was obvious that the topics they were talking about were of mutual interest.

"Ache, do you know what is the most beautiful aspect of love?"

After thinking about it, Beiyuan Linyin took the initiative to start chatting.

"Hmm...the moment when each other can understand each other?"

Kitagawa Che thought for a while and gave what he thought was the answer.

If one just wants to pursue the feeling of being loved in a relationship, or the novelty of loving someone, he or she will not be able to experience this feeling, because what they are pursuing is just "love", not the person in love.

But if you truly like each other and can tolerate each other's shortcomings, then mutual understanding will become the most heart-warming key point.

At least that's what he thought.

"Although the wording is a little different from what I imagined, the meaning is the same." Beiyuan Rinyin's mouth curled up slightly unconsciously, watching the couple disappear from her sight. "Having common topics and being able to understand each other's meanings is the best part of love."

This is also a key point that her mother has always emphasized.

If a couple cannot understand each other, then it is no exaggeration to say that the marriage is already dead in name only.

"I thought Ms. Rinone was going to talk about the trivial details of life."

Ejima Mio, who was sitting in the back row, nodded thoughtfully, then smiled and joked.

In her impression, Beiyuan Rinyin attaches great importance to the small details in life.

Thumb, thump, thump

The traffic light in front of the intersection changed from red to green.

Kitagawa Che gently stepped on the accelerator and the car started again.

"That's just a partial microcosm." Rinne Beiyuan did not deny Miao Eshima's statement, "My mother told me before that even if a couple loves each other deeply, after a long time, the love of each other will also change. Gradually it becomes a family relationship that is blood-dissolved in water.”

She felt that this description was simple yet romantic.

"Isn't this great?"

Ejima Miu raised her eyebrows and looked at Kitaen Rinne who was sitting in the passenger seat through the rearview mirror.

In her opinion, this is the only way to go and it is necessary.

"It's quite good. In my opinion, this is a kind of sublimation."

Kitaen Rin nodded.

In this regard, both her father and mother have set excellent examples for her.

During the time when their family was having financial difficulties, her parents did quarrel over money issues, and occasionally quarreled, but after venting those negative emotions, they would still sit down, apologize to each other, and then Give the other person a hug and communicate well, and you will not keep those negative and dissatisfied feelings towards the other person in your heart.

Just like what my mother and father told me, communication can solve problems, and sulking does nothing but make you angrier.

"It's like the RPG game theory that Che mentioned before." Beiyuan Linyin paused and continued, "The brave team that conquers the Demon King must support each other. If you dislike this from the beginning, you will dislike it. Then, the final result is to be KO, let alone meet the Demon King, and may not even be able to leave the Novice Village."

The theory Kitagawa Che talked about before still left a deep impression on her to this day.

Even someone like her who is not interested in video games would nod in agreement after listening to it. It is easy to understand and is basically true.

To say this with a bit of sarcasm, if Che doesn't want to be a singer in the future, then becoming a teacher seems to be a good choice.

After all, someone is so eloquent.

"If you want to put it this way, our team has a pretty high error tolerance rate."

Ejima Miao teased her young master with a pun.

Other teams are basically composed of two people, but their team currently has six people.

Although some teammates haven't said it explicitly yet, whether it's the attitude they show or the details in life, they all speak of the feelings that are not made clear but the meaning is clear as can be.

That’s the truth.”

Beiyuan Rinyin was silent for a moment, then chuckled and shook her head.

What a wonderful idea, why couldn't she understand it?

However, she has already decided that way, and she will no longer think about it. If she did something like that at that time, she won't do something like that now.

Firstly, there is no need for it, and secondly, the more you think about it, the more you will become mentally exhausted.

Looking at it from another perspective, this may not be a bad thing.

After all, whether it is Shiori, Yuksa, or the unnamed Rina sister who has been restraining, they can give Che a lot of help.

Especially Shiori and Yukisa.

If nothing else goes wrong, Che will definitely devote his energy to music and literature in the future, and the relationship and channels behind the two of them can provide Che with a great degree of convenience.
