What does it have to do with me if they hate vests?

From the very beginning, Goto Ichiri felt a little confused about this. After all, she and Shiki only knew each other and could not even be considered acquaintances. However, Shiki would inexplicably appear beside her and invisibly lead her forward. She was not like in the past, where she was defeated by the wall of her own heart at the beginning of the school year and fell into a lonely situation with no one to care about her.

"That's because Ichiri-chan is cute, of course." Shiki answered happily.

"...I asked so seriously." The girl muttered softly, obviously dissatisfied with Si Ji's perfunctory response.

"Sorry, sorry, but I didn't lie. Ichiri-chan is cute, which is one of the reasons."

Si Ji then apologized and continued.

"When I was in the Service Club before, although what Yukinoshita said was a bit harsh and extreme, it was basically correct. I really couldn't find my dream for the time being, and I was in a very confused state like a bee that had lost its direction. It was you, Ichiri, who appeared at that time... Obviously, I was lacking in many aspects, and I didn't even have the courage to make up for all the shortcomings, but I still had a wonderful dream, so I tried to observe you, Ichiri, and wanted to find my dream again from you..."

"I'm not very good at talking, so I don't know what to say..." Goto Ichiri walked through the fence and came to the door of his house. Then he said to Shiki: "But I think your wish, Washimiya-kun, will definitely come true."

"World peace?" Four Seasons sneered and said, "That's not bad either."

Chapter 96: Resting after a meal is not good for health

Taking a nap after dinner is a habit that Si Ji developed when he decided to start playing badly.

During the busiest period of the two years before that, he didn't even have time to eat proper meals. He only relied on nutritional tablets and milk to get through dinner, and would only eat an apple or something when he really couldn't hold on any longer. You have to know that at that time he was not a dieter who could go to bed shortly after dinner, but a late-nighter who had to work until the early hours of the morning, and sometimes he could even watch the sunrise in Tokyo.

If it weren't for the system mall that occasionally gave out physical fitness enhancement coupons, allowing Si Ji's body to jump back and forth between healthy and sub-healthy, he might have already become so weak that his body seemed hollowed out.

In a sense, Shi Ji is pretty miserable, considering that he can still live like a social animal even with the system.

After realizing that he might die suddenly if he continued like this, and that his two aliases were successful in their careers and didn't have to work so hard for the time being, Si Ji began to pay attention to his health and tried to develop some habits that (he thought) were more beneficial to health.

A nap after dinner is one of them.

Interestingly, Yamada Fairy didn't have such a habit originally. She used to rush around to do her own things after dinner. But after living with Shiki for a while, I don't know whether it was active or passive, but her pace gradually began to synchronize with Shiki, and she would rest quietly for a while after dinner.

Just like now, the two of them were curled up on the sofa in the Four Seasons Room.

Shiki was leaning on the sofa in a Ge You-like posture, flipping through a light novel.

Yamada Fairy was lying on the sofa, leaning against Shiki's thighs with her knees resting on them, and was constantly flipping through her cell phone.

"Ms. Emily, don't you feel a little hot?" Si Ji put down the novel in his hand and asked the girl helplessly.

As spring comes to an end and summer approaches, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Now is the time when it is okay to wear short sleeves.

"No." The girl looked from the phone screen to Si Ji's face, smiled sweetly and said, "It's not hot at all."

'She's only fourteen. She's only fourteen. She's only fourteen. . . '

Si Ji muttered to himself, trying to calm himself down and not be fooled by her sweet smile.

As if she realized that Si Ji was suppressing the gun, the smile on the girl's face gradually turned into a smirk, and she even deliberately rubbed her smooth cheek against Si Ji's thigh. Then she faintly straightened her chest, highlighting her curves which were quite good among her peers, making the latter subtly more uneasy.

"She is only fourteen. How can she be so well developed at fourteen..."

Realizing that there seemed to be something wrong with what he had been reciting silently, Shiki took a deep breath and recalled the cliffs in the Service Club in his mind.

Four Seasons: "... (wither)"

Very good. My turbulent mood suddenly calmed down.

Thank you, Snowman!

"Come to think of it, I thought you would also come to Fengzhizaki to study."

Shiki saw that Yamada Fairy's expression became very strange and depressed because he suddenly calmed down. He laughed in his heart and quickly changed the subject to prevent the other party from continuing to test his willpower.

And he was indeed curious about this question. After all, when he was in school, he had been prepared for the development of the classic Japanese anime plot of "the mysterious transfer student". However, a few days passed and the Yamada fairy did not show up at all.

"To like someone does not mean to tie him/her to yourself, but to respect him/her and give him/her enough space for independence and freedom." After a moment's silence, Yamada Fairy said righteously.

"You didn't take the transfer exam to Toyonosaki, but failed, so you can't enroll?"

“…Respect!”

The girl's eyes guiltily turned away from Si Ji's face.

"Really? I have a way to find out Toyonosaki's transfer exam results." Shiki said in a mysterious manner.

"Well……"

The Yamada Fairy gritted his teeth, looked at Shiki angrily, and rubbed his cheek with his hand: "Since you guessed it, can't you just let me go?"

"I am a feminist," Four Seasons replied righteously, "I advocate equality between men and women."

"Modern feminism does not advocate equality, it mostly just strives for more rights for women." said Yamada Fairy.

But judging from her contemptuous tone, as if she was treating it as a joke, she didn't seem to have a good impression of what she called modern feminism.

Si Ji also reached out his hand towards the girl's face as if in revenge.

His hand brushed across the girl's forehead, and the golden hair slipped through his fingers, as brilliant as flowing gold.

Then it passed by her proud eyebrows, the girl's eyes were full of affection, like spring water, making the person reflected in her eyes seem to be about to melt in that handful of tenderness.

Then the fingertips slid further down, next to her shyly flushed cheeks, was a straight nose and cherry lips as white and attractive as jelly. She slightly opened her lips, trembling slightly as she exhaled a sweet breath.

It was the white rum raisin Delphi chocolate that Siji had made for dinner, but for some reason, he felt that the girl's scent was sweeter and more intoxicating than the chocolate he had made with his level 8 cooking skills.

Shiki's hand that had been caressing the girl's cheek retracted as if it had received an electric shock - was it because of her mixed blood? Why was there only one thing that touched her, and she was not as happy as the other. �

But the girl was quicker to grab Si Ji's retracted hand, then took his hand and put it back on her face, rubbing it gently, looking at him tenderly with a smile on her face, "If it's you, it doesn't matter how long you touch me."

Shiki pulled his hand away but failed to do so. He was afraid of hurting the Yamada fairy, so he could only sigh and let the girl rest her hand on his head.

"How about we talk about something happy, like your transfer exam results?"

"How can this be considered a happy thing?" the girl said indignantly. "I'm fine with my poor math grades. After all, even if I'm extremely angry, I can't do math. But Chinese... I'm a great light novelist with total sales of over 330 million copies! I filled out all the reading comprehension questions, but the teacher who graded the papers said to me with a complicated face, 'I suggest that Yamada-san start reading from junior high school.' There should be a limit to looking down on others!"

"Yes, after all, Emily, you haven't even graduated from elementary school. You should start from elementary school... Ouch."

"If you say that again, I'm going to bite you!"

"You've already bitten me..."

Chapter 97: Kashiwagi Eri's Problem

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore..."

The Yamada Fairy sighed heavily.

Then she said hesitantly, "Well, Shiki, what do you think of me rewriting a light novel?"

Shiki, who was playing with the girl's hair, was stunned - although the fairy Yamada had not taken good care of her hair, her hair quality was surprisingly good. Apart from some natural curls, it felt like silk in the hands and was very comfortable.

"What about your book 'Exploding Dark Fairy'?" He became a little more serious and asked, "Are you not going to write it anymore?"

Admittedly, because the book was started by a girl a few years ago, looking at it from today's perspective, there are indeed various shortcomings in the early stage. Some early settings have been basically eaten up, and the plot has also entered a bottleneck period. The recent story is purely supported by the fairy's writing skills and wild imagination. Before Shiki used Natsume Makura's vest to divert her attention, "The Exploding Dark Fairy" had been hovering outside the 30th place on the ORICON rankings for several volumes, and there was really not much point in continuing to write it.

But Shiki still hopes that the girl can be more thorough, and at least spend one or two volumes to give the novel a complete ending.

"I will continue writing, but now I have a better idea." Yamada Fairy's eyes were a little evasive, and his attitude was so hesitant that it seemed very suspicious no matter how you looked at him, "I just feel that I have some new and interesting inspirations that I want to write... You, you see, isn't Natsume Makuru's "The Adventures of a Young Wizard" not finished yet? So what if I delay writing one volume for a few months like that guy..."

Si Ji couldn't help feeling speechless when he was urged to update his work.

He carefully looked at the girl's expression and saw that she looked different from usual and seemed a little hesitant, so he began to make some guesses in his mind.

"Is it related to Kashiwagi Eri?" Shiki asked directly.

"Well, not entirely..."

"Not 'completely', but that must be part of the reason, right? And since you said that, I'm afraid that this part probably accounts for a large proportion."

When Si Ji heard her words, he immediately realized that he was not wrong: "So what is the situation?"

"Didn't the illustrator for the previous volume change to Kashiwagi Eri? Although I think Kashiwagi's drawings are great and fit my novel very well, many readers said they couldn't accept the sudden change of illustrators."

Yamada Fairy said a little frustrated.

Although she always says that she doesn't care about readers' comments, she often quarrels with people on comment websites and has even been the subject of controversy.

But if she really doesn't care about other people's opinions, then why would she personally get involved in an argument with the other party?

After hearing what Shan Dutian Fairy said, Shiki took out his mobile phone and logged into a popular novel forum, where he saw a discussion thread about the illustrations of "The Exploding Dark Fairy". After clicking on it, he found that most of the readers had a rather negative attitude towards the sudden change.

"Shiki, do you think Mr. Kashiwagi's paintings really don't match my novels?"

When Shiki roughly understood what happened and looked up, the Yamada Fairy looked at him pitifully and asked.

Eri Kashiwagi's painting style is fleshy and juicy, which can arouse men's instinctive desires.

Among all the painters Si Ji knows, her painting style is undoubtedly among the best when it comes to Sedu.

The original illustrator of "The Exploding Dark Fairy" used a cute celluloid style. Although there are some voluptuous parts, it is mostly "cute" rather than "sexy".

Readers who have been accompanying the book "Dark Fairy" all the way are accustomed to the original illustrator's cute and slightly sensual style of painting. As a result, in the latest volume, their favorite heroines suddenly all became drawn in the style of the book, which is naturally a bit difficult to accept.

If those idle house guards had conducted a deeper investigation and followed the clue of Kashiwagi Eri, they would have discovered that all of this artist's previous works were from Ling○Xiang, which would obviously lead to some very bad associations.

If it is said that Eri Kashiwagi's painting skills can completely surpass the original illustrator of "Dark Elf", then this kind of voice will naturally not be too loud.

But the problem is that it is not the case.

From Shiki's perspective, in terms of painting skills alone, Kashiwagi Eri is indeed slightly better than the original illustrator, but this is not a qualitative difference. When it comes to individual illustrations, the levels of the two are comparable - in any case, both will be defeated by Shiina Mashiro who is in serious mode.

The painting style has changed drastically, and the quality of the illustrations cannot make a decisive difference. Although the style of Kashiwagi Eri's book is indeed more suitable for the plot written by Yamada Yaojing, this is not the case for readers who have followed the series all the way. This behavior is like defiling their favorite heroine and is a kind of "betrayal."

So it is not surprising that Fairy has been severely criticized by her original fans during this period.

Si Ji thought about it and answered truthfully: "I think it's okay."

Anyway, no one can draw as well as he does.

But his answer gave the girl great confidence.

"That's what I told you! How could my vision be wrong! Mr. Kashiwagi's painting style really suits my novel! Damn, those servants are so tasteless! It really pissed me off..."

Just like a child who had been wronged and was complaining to an adult, the girl poured out all the dissatisfaction in her heart to Si Ji.

And Si Ji did not find her annoying. He just listened to her complaints with a faint smile, and agreed with her from time to time, allowing the girl to vent all the sadness and grievances in her heart.

"But this way, I feel more like an old father than a boyfriend or husband..."

While comforting the noisy girl, Shiki smiled bitterly and muttered to himself.

"So what do you think of me writing a new book? This time, let Mr. Kashiwagi draw the illustrations from the very beginning. I'll start from scratch and let them see how well Mr. Kashiwagi's style of painting suits me!"

Yamada Fairy finally returned to the original topic and looked at Shiki with hope.

"I don't care. The more interesting novels the better." Shiki first affirmed the girl's idea, but then reminded her: "But light novels written 'to refute others' will have a strange smell from the bottom. If you really want to write a new book, Emily, I hope you don't just focus on this. Like you did before, you can wholeheartedly describe the story in your heart. It will definitely be more interesting."

"Well," the girl gently snuggled up to the boy and responded softly, "I know."

For a moment, the room was silent, with only the rustling sound of turning pages.

After a moment, the girl asked again.

"Can I stay the night?"

"No."

"whispering sound……"

Chapter 98 Exchange (Diversion) (Stolen Goods) Meeting

Because the goblin has become more and more clingy, Si Ji has been suppressing a rage in recent times with nowhere to vent it.

It’s not that she can’t find someone to vent her anger on - if Shiki really wants to relieve herself, leaving aside other things, her pet Yukinoshita Yukino and maid Hayasaka Ai can be used to vent her anger, and she can always pull up her pants and ignore them.

If they are even more scumbag, they can even try to cheat for sex. I guess Rikka Takanashi, who was fooled around, and the introverted and timid Goto Ichiri could be tricked into doing many things.

But the scumbag attribute only appears in the pseudonym Qiu Ling Wenping. Although Si Ji will not be the honest man who is responsible for taking over, he also does not want to be a scumbag who creates many sluts.

So in the end this evil fire has to be vented elsewhere.

For example, the Shinomiya family has been ruined.

Although Si Ji has been studying diligently during this period, he has also been secretly concerned about business matters. The only difference is that he has changed from a micro-manipulation master who used to do everything by himself, such as "moving the machine gun line forward five meters", to a qualified capitalist who only grasps the general direction and firmly controls the overall situation, while the remaining details are handled by his subordinates.

Of course, he also played a small role in the breakup of the Shinomiya family.

The largest and fattest part of the entire Sigong family was enjoyed by Maple Leaf Technology without any hesitation, but the rest of the big pile was thrown to the forces that had previously acted as hunting dogs to help tear apart the Sigong family, so that they would understand that if they followed Maple Leaf Technology to cause trouble, they would not only have soup to drink, but also less fat meat to eat.

Of course, this can be considered a charitable act in the business world. Only Maple Leaf Technology, which controls the lifeline of the world's new energy, transcends the Three Realms and is not within the Five Elements, and will never die as long as it does not commit suicide, can do such a thing. If it were other more capable companies, they would probably be immediately treated as weak little lambs and be divided up by the wolves lurking in the business world.

The reason why Shiki did this was not only because he didn't want to spread his business too wide and mess it up, but also because if he didn't spend money like this, there would be no way for Kaguya Shinomiya to get the benefits in this feast in a legitimate way.
