Zongman: Even if I am reborn, I still want to live my daily life

Gao Yumo glanced at the socks that 09 had casually placed beside him and nodded, "Then stretch your feet out and I'll help you put them on."

"Ah! No, no! It was okay just now because it was a massage, but what explanation do you have this time? If you don't have one, I'll put them on myself." Aoyama Nanami shyly tried to stop Gao Yumo's actions, but Gao Yumo ignored her, gently picked up her foot, and helped her put on her socks.

"Today's events are all because of me. I know you forgave me from the beginning, but I won't consider this matter over just because you forgave me. You can think of it as just a short while. I will help you with your things as my apology. I think that if this goes on for too long, based on my current judgment of your personality, you will definitely have objections. But it's just a short while, and I hope you can let me finish."

Gao Yumo said that it should be something that would make Aoyama Nanami less bothered.

However, the two have different personalities, which leads to them each having their own ideas. Aoyama Nanami still doesn't think this is right, but Takayu Mo also has her own ideas.

"I... okay, just for a little while." In the end, Aoyama Nanami couldn't resist Gao Yumo's gaze and gave in.

"Just agree."

"It should be okay now, right? Half an hour has passed." Gao Yumo stayed by her side for another half hour. Aoyama Nanami remained sitting on the bed, and Gao Yumo wouldn't let her get down. Helpless, she could only take out her book and start reading.

"Do you want to go to class? You should be almost there, but before you leave, I want to tell you one last thing." Gao Yumo also put away her phone and looked at Qingshan Qihai. She couldn't sit still anymore, and because she felt that Gao Yumo's presence here was troubling him, she would feel very bad, which must be very uncomfortable for her.

"Tell me what it is. If you need my help, I can help." Aoyama Nanami nodded. She was currently trying to think of a way to repay him.

“I have a club that makes games, and we estimate it will be ready next month. You want to become a voice actor, so why don’t you join us?” Gao Yumo asked directly.

"A gaming club? You look about my age, how come you're so good?" Aoyama Nanami said in surprise, then thought about herself and felt that she was so far from her dream.

"Well, it's because I was lucky." Gao Yumo thought for a moment and could only attribute it to luck in the end.

"Luck?" Aoyama Nanami muttered. Everyone else was so lucky, what about her? But she wouldn't give up, and she didn't think she would fail!

"You're lucky today too, running into me," Gao Yumo teased her, seeing through her thoughts.

Aoyama Nanami glanced at him, then at her own feet. "Perhaps, perhaps I'm just lucky today. But I can't accept your invitation because I'm not qualified. I'm still learning and can't delay your game progress."

She was still very self-aware. She didn't know if Gao Yumo invited her out of pity or something else, but she couldn't accept it.

"Don't rush to refuse. Since I've invited you, it means you're qualified to join our club. You don't need to underestimate yourself." Gao Yumo shook her head, disagreeing with her statement.

Aoyama Nanami nodded. "Then tell me." She also wanted to know why such an amazing person would invite her.

"You." Gao Yumo told Qingshan Qihai about everything, including how she finished school, worked, and then went to a voice acting school.

"That's why you don't have money for food, right? And that's why your body has become like this, looking malnourished and sickly." Gao Yumo acted as if she knew everything, which startled Aoyama Nanami.

"How...how did you know? Could it be...a stalker?" That's what Aoyama Nanami thought to herself, but she didn't say it aloud. She still didn't believe it, but she couldn't think of any other explanation.

"Oh, I just found it online." Gao Yumo waved her phone, and Aoyama Nanami's gaze was instantly drawn to the phone in Gao Yumo's hand.

"How could that be? How could there be anything about me online? I'm not a famous person, just an ordinary person." Aoyama Nanami didn't believe it at all, but after taking a look at Takayuki's phone, she completely believed it. It really was her information, but something seemed off.

"This doesn't seem to be from a legitimate source, does it? Are you a hacker?" Nanami was startled, becoming more and more alarmed as she looked. This information was far too detailed! Although it didn't contain any of her private information, it included everything about what she did, when she went, and where she was. It didn't seem like normal at all.

“Indeed, I saw it by hacking into the network. Don’t worry, I’ve encrypted your information, and no one else in the world can see it after this.” Gao Yumo nodded with a smile. “And I didn’t look at your private messages. Don’t worry, I just wanted to know some things about you. I only decided to invite you after I saw your information, Xiao Qihai.”

Nanami swallowed hard. This was incredible! Although she didn't quite believe his claim that no one else in the world could see 353, after all, there are always people more capable than you.

But she still believed him when he said he hadn't looked at her private messages, and she still had a good impression of him. She felt that Gao Yumo wasn't that kind of person.

"So after you see this, shouldn't you think I'm just an ordinary girl?" Nanami said. She was increasingly impressed by the boy in front of her, and the more she saw him, the more ordinary she felt. Someone who could form a club with him must be very strong, right? Did she deserve that?

"You mean someone as hardworking as you is an ordinary person? No way! A girl like you who can work so hard that she breaks her body just for her dream, how could she be an ordinary person? You are the kind of person I admire the most, so I want to give you a chance. I really hope you can join our club."

Gao Yumo spoke very sincerely, and Aoyama Nanami fell silent after listening. Was she really as good as he described?

"Don't underestimate yourself. I have such high hopes for you. It wouldn't be good if you didn't have high hopes for yourself," Gao Yumo continued.

Aoyama Nanami thought for a moment, then looked up and nodded at Gao Yumo, "I want to try! Could you show me the storyline of your game?"

"Of course." Gao Yumo pulled out the proposal with your name on it directly from his bag. As for why he brought it, the answer is simple: he had a feeling he might run into Aoyama Nanami when he came here today, so bringing it was normal. Besides, with the system's inventory, he wouldn't be so restricted in carrying things anymore.

Chapter 99 Green Mountains and Seven Seas: In the end, am I supposed to repay him with my body? (3rd update)

After receiving the proposal from Gao Yumo, Xiao Qihai read it carefully. Her impression of Gao Yumo had now become that of a very capable person, so she assumed that the proposal must also be very impressive, and thus had high expectations.

Gao Yumo didn't say anything to disturb her. Xiao Qihai quickly became engrossed in the story of "Your Name," which was even better than she had expected!

This project is not the original one; it has been revised by Gao Yumo. The main storyline and character settings are now complete, and the feeling it evokes is different from the original version.

After a while

Aoyama Nanami put down the proposal in her hand, her expression strange. She was deeply shocked by the story and couldn't say a word.

Gao Yumo just watched from the side without saying a word to her.

"After watching it, I think you shouldn't have invited an ordinary person like me who is still studying. I'm afraid I'll ruin such a great work." Aoyama Nanami looked at Gao Yumo with some unease.

"I'm the club leader and the lead planner of this game. I told you you're capable, you'll definitely succeed. I told you not to underestimate yourself. No matter how hard you try, you can definitely do it!" Gao Yumo had a lot of confidence in her.

Sensing Gao Yumo's confidence in him, Xiao Qihai smiled and said, "Yes, I will try my best!"

“That’s right, that’s the spirit we need,” Gao Yumo said happily. “From now on, just call me by my name, just like I call you Xiao Qihai.”

Aoyama Nanami blushed again and nodded: "Mo-kun? And could you please stop calling me Nanami?"

"Yes, that's it." Gao Yumo nodded with a smile, ignoring her words about not using nicknames, which made Qi Hai puff out her cheeks, but there was nothing she could do. "And that's it for this matter. Now I'll move on to the next thing."

"Didn't we say it was the last thing? Mo-kun." Aoyama Nanami looked at him in confusion. Why was there one thing after another?

Gao Yumo shook her head. "Didn't I just remember something else?"

"Here's the thing, I want to hire you to work for me. It's not related to what happened with the club earlier, and it's very simple. The salary will be 20% higher than your current job. I don't know if you can accept that," Gao Yumo said, looking at Qi Hai.

"But my work hours are already completely full, and I can't accept your job." Although she was very tempted, she didn't have the time, and she thought that Mo Jun was just pitying her, so she didn't want to accept.

"Then quit all those jobs. Of course, I mean if you agree after I tell you. My job is very simple, which is to take care of someone, and she is a girl, so it won't be inconvenient for you. What do you think?" Gao Yumo continued.

“But.” Nanami paused for a moment.

Gao Yumo ignored her and continued, "This job requires you to use all your time outside of studying. Simply put, it means living with the girl I mentioned. She can't live alone. Can you understand?"

"Could it be?" Nanami thought it was some kind of illness or disability. If that were the case, she could understand the salary and the time.

"It's not as serious as you think, but she completely lacks common sense. She probably doesn't have any of the common sense you can think of." Gao Yumo saw through her thoughts, smiled and shook her head. How could it be that serious?

But when Nanami heard his statement, she imagined it for a moment and said, "Isn't this almost the same? Or even more serious?"

"Perhaps, so what? Do you want to agree?" Gao Yumo asked again.

"Well, I'm sorry." She hadn't finished speaking; although she was very tempted, she had to refuse.

But Gao Yumo dismissed her refusal with a single sentence: "How about room and board? And the food is made by me, like the bento boxes from earlier, three meals a day, how about that?"

Nanami swallowed hard, thinking about the bento box she had just received, and then about the salary Mo Jun had mentioned. Where could such a good thing be found?

"This is fake, isn't it? You're still using excuses to deceive me, trying to pity me, right?" Nanami lowered her head, her emotions not very high. She still had doubts. How could such good things happen to her? How could her luck be so good, one thing after another?

"Sigh, I knew you wouldn't believe me. After all, I would have doubted it if I encountered something like this. If I hadn't actually encountered it, I would have doubted it too." Gao Yumo saw Qi Hai's mood suddenly sink, realizing that she thought he was pitying her, but what he said was true.

"What do you think I'm here for today?" Gao Yumo asked her.

Qi Hai raised her head and shook her head. She was still willing to listen to Gao Yu Mo's explanation. She would feel better if Mo Jun could explain it clearly.

“I’m from another school, so I can’t just randomly come to your school, can I? I’m actually here to take someone to school today. It’s the girl I told you about. She’s the cousin of that Mr. Sengoku from earlier. She has absolutely no common sense. If I hadn’t taken her today, she might have gotten lost on her way to school.”

"How could that be!" Nanami still didn't believe that such a person existed.

"I haven't finished yet. You'll know why when I'm done. Her name is Chika Mashiro. I don't know if you've heard of her. She's a world-class genius painter, and she's the same age as you." Gao Yumo raised his hand to stop her, letting him finish.

"World-class! And the same age as me!" Nanami was still shocked to hear this, and there was no stopping him, since anyone would be shocked to hear such news.

“Yes, a world-class painter. Why do you think she has achieved such success? Is it talent? That might be part of it, but the most important reason is actually hard work.” Gao Yumo nodded, looking at Qi Hai listening to him, and continued.

"She started learning to draw when she was little. Like you, she is a girl who has dedicated all her time to her dreams. Do you think you are the same? Why did she succeed but you didn't?" Gao Yumo looked into Qi Hai's eyes. When she was seen, Qi Hai's eyes darted away. Indeed, when she heard this, she had thought that for a moment.

“Let me tell you why. The biggest difference between her and you is that she truly dedicated all her time, everything except eating and sleeping, including studying, including learning common sense. She doesn’t know anything except drawing.” Gao Yumo looked into Qi Hai’s eyes. “What are your thoughts after hearing this?”

Aoyama Nanami was shocked, her eyes filled with disbelief. She couldn't even imagine what the person who came out would look like. If that was the case, then what Mo Jun said just now might be true.

"She really has absolutely no common sense. She doesn't know what buying things is or what paying is. She just puts clothes on and doesn't know how to wash her face or brush her teeth. There are many, many examples, but I won't go into them. She really can't do anything except draw," Gao Yumo concluded, clearly believing Qi Hai's expression.

"After hearing this, do you want to accept this job? Xiao Qihai? That means you'll be taking care of Zhiming Zhenshiro for me. You'll have to take care of her all the time except when you're studying." Gao Yumo saw that she was wavering and pressed her advantage.

“I can, I’m willing if that’s the case.” Aoyama Nanami nodded understandingly. “Besides, I’m also quite interested to see what this genius painter is like.”

"Good, it's good that you accepted it." Gao Yumo was very happy that she had finally relented.

But before he could be happy for long, Aoyama Nanami held up one finger and said, "But I don't want you to raise my salary. Just keep it the same as my usual part-time job."

Gao Yumo scratched her head. Qi Hai was indeed like that. She could tell that he was trying to help her, but she didn't want this kind of unconditional help. She would treat it as work, not as Mo Jun's charity.

"Alright, alright, this is the first time I've seen someone voluntarily ask their boss for a pay cut. But you only mentioned a pay cut, and I only allow you to make this one condition. So you should agree to live with Chizuru Mashiro, right? That means I'll provide you with room and board. You can only choose one of these two." Gao Yumo said with a mischievous smile. After all, he hadn't mentioned where they would live yet, and he wondered if Nanami could figure it out.

"This..." Nanami immediately realized and started to struggle. Living with Shizuna Mashiro was the same as living with Moku-kun, wasn't it? How embarrassing! And it would also help her, right? But if she could only choose one, she would definitely choose the other.

"I still hope the salary is the same as my other jobs. As for food and lodging, I..." Qi Hai thought for a moment. Taking care of that girl and living with her was indeed necessary, but it was still unconditional help for her. Mo Jun was too good to her, and she didn't know what to do. She couldn't repay him! Could she end up repaying him with her body? Was that what Mo Jun was thinking? She started to have wild thoughts.

"It's settled then. You'll eat and stay at my place. I think you've thought it through. If I'm asking you to take care of Zhenbai, then you'll have to live with her. That'll be more convenient." In the end, Gao Yumo didn't care about her hesitation and made the decision directly. That's how it was decided.

Qi Hai had no choice but to nod; since Mo Jun had said so, she couldn't do anything about it.

"Okay, I'll move there, but it might not be possible today. I still need to quit those jobs." Qi Hai had no choice but to accept it. She acknowledged Mo Jun's help to her. He helped her like this on their first meeting, and she would remember it for the rest of her life.

"Alright, that's all for today. You can tell Sengoku-sensei and then go see Mashiro. You'll understand what kind of person she is and you'll know that what I said was absolutely right." Gao Yumo arranged her schedule for later. Nanami nodded; she really wanted to see her too.

"Don't worry about getting along with Mashiro. Mashiro will definitely like a gentle girl like you. I'll give you my address. Bring Mashiro home after school today, okay? This is your first job. I have high hopes for you." Gao Yumo finished speaking and prepared to leave. The biggest gain today was Aoyama Nanami, their club's first official voice actress, although she was just learning to be a voice actress, just like Kato Megumi.

"Yes, thank you so much for today, Mo-kun. I will take good care of Mashiro, so please don't worry about leaving her to me. Also, thank you for the bento." Aoyama Nanami smiled as well. Although being called a gentle girl made her shy, she still smiled happily. Today's experience was really dreamlike for her, just like in a novel.

"You're welcome. I'll prepare a bento for you every day from now on. Once you're at my house, you won't go hungry. Even if you're pursuing your dreams, it's not good to ruin your health in the end." Gao Yumo said and left.

"Wait!" Aoyama Nanami tried to call him but couldn't stop him. He ran off way too fast! But this feeling of being cared for is really nice!

"You said to send me the address, but we haven't even exchanged contact information yet." Qi Hai took out her phone and glanced at it, only to realize that the address had already been sent to her phone. She then realized that Mo Jun was a hacker, and this kind of thing shouldn't be a problem for him at all.

"Alright, let's go see what kind of girl Chizuru Mashiro is that Mo-kun mentioned! A world-class genius painter!" Aoyama Nanami got off the bed, felt her sprained ankle—it was fine now—smiled, and left the infirmary.

Chapter 100 Troublesome Girl (1st Update)

At Toyo no Soubu High School, Takahata Momo slacked off outside for a while before going back to class.

It was almost noon, and he returned just as get out of class was ending, so he didn't have to walk in under the watchful eyes of his classmates and teachers.

As soon as he sat down, several classmates gathered around him. They were all classmates he had spoken to a few times in the past few days, both male and female. Although they weren't very familiar with each other, they still came to check on him.

He dismissed them all by saying he had some urgent business to attend to that morning. He was quite patient with his classmates. After chatting with them for a few minutes, they all dispersed. Most of the classmates were quite conscious of not bothering him. He didn't know when the news that he was the eldest son of Gao Yu's family had spread. He didn't say it himself, and he didn't care who said it. Anyway, it wasn't something that couldn't be spread.

When the news first broke, his classmates were a little afraid of him, but later they found that he was still as kind as before, so they went back to normal. However, fewer people talked to him, and he was happy to have some peace and quiet.

He turned around and looked at Gabriel sitting behind him. Her hair was no longer as smooth as before; this was the result of neglecting its care after her fall from grace. "How are you today?"

"Ugh! School is so annoying!" Gabriel muttered, slumped over her desk. Vinet, sitting next to her, had sensed something was different ever since Gabriel arrived. On Saturday, she thought Gabriel just loved playing games, but today it was different—she was a completely different person! Was she a Fallen Angel?

She spent the whole morning thinking about how to turn Xiao Jia back to her old self. After Gao Yumo arrived, she wanted to ask if there was any way, but she decided to think of a solution herself first.

"You still have to go to school, even if it's annoying. Remember what we agreed on." Gao Yumo patted her head and looked at the other students in the class. They were all doing their own things. The troublesome girl next to him wasn't there either, but she would definitely be back in class later. What a nuisance.

"Ah, Gao Yu, you're back." Just as he was thinking about it, Teruhashi Kokomi returned and greeted him.

These past few days at school, dealing with her has been the most troublesome thing for Gao Yumo. The main reason is that he has no way to deal with this woman, and the trouble she brings outweighs the benefits. Being called the daughter of God is no joke; she truly possesses beauty that can incite war.

"Yes, I had some things to take care of this morning and took leave, but I've already finished it." Gao Yumo still quite enjoyed chatting with her, if it weren't for those troublesome things. However, he wasn't too afraid of trouble, especially with Li Zi around.

Now he remembers how good I was. Chestnut made a sarcastic remark about him and then didn't say anything more.

"I see." After she said that, the two of them stood there awkwardly. Apart from school, they basically didn't communicate much, and it was usually Kokoro who would approach him. In fact, they didn't have much to talk about.

Does she really want me to make that kind of sound? Oh ho~, is that it?

Just send it once, and she should stop bothering you. The example provided is a solution.

If it were just making that kind of sound, it wouldn't be so bad, but I can't accept that I lost to her. Wouldn't that just let her get her way? Gao Yumo didn't want to use this method, otherwise she wouldn't have been entangled with Teruhashi Kokomi.

So what to do? You're thick-skinned anyway, just send her a message. Or are you still thinking of trying to win her over? That's quite difficult, but if you're thick-skinned like someone else, you might have a chance. Chestnut glanced over, then put on her act again, expressing sympathy for Gao Yumo's plight, and then nothing more. It was all his own doing.

"Sigh." Gao Yumo sighed and looked out the window. Of all the girls he had ever met, Zhao Qiaoxinmei was the one he had the least trouble with. Actually, there were still some things he could do, but none of them could be accomplished in a short time. He would take it slowly. After all, making that sound once wouldn't solve the problem. After all, after the first time, he would need to make that sound every time. If he didn't make it even once, she would probably start pestering him again.

As Teruhashi Kokomi looked at Takayuki's profile, although she still smiled beautifully on the surface, she was already thinking of a way to get the man in front of her to utter an "oh" sound.

She just greeted him first, and he didn't even say hello! That's so unmanly of him!

If Gao Yumo knew what she was thinking, well, he knew. Chestnut relayed it the moment she heard it, which made things more interesting.

Gao Yumo raised an eyebrow, starting to regret his decision. He should have just gone for it; now he was already incurring sunk costs. He had to win!

"Where's your lunchbox?" Eriri asked Takayuki on the rooftop.

The group of girls were having dinner on the rooftop: Eriri, Utaha, Kato Megumi, and Takahata Sumi. The others all had their own circles at school, so it was just the four of them.
