Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

Then he picked up the pen again and wrote his name on the contract.

Nagasaki Natsuko knew that Watanabe Yuu didn't look at her on purpose, and Hamabe Ryoko didn't look at her on purpose either.

But at this moment, she felt that they were all looking at her.

Watch her joke.

She looks like a clown.

She bit her lip, her eyes filled with fear and trepidation, like a stray dog ​​that had lost its backbone.

She was very afraid that Hamabe Ryoko would mention the conflict between them and the things she had done.

She knew very well that the other party didn't need to mention it too clearly, just a sentence with the wrong tone.

She believed that the fawning vice president would be happy to teach her a lesson in front of them.

For example, fire her.

next moment.

She gave Hamabe Ryoko a pleading look.

But what she worried about did not happen after all.

Ryoko Hamabe never looked at her or said anything from beginning to end.

She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate to have survived a disaster.

But when this feeling of relief came to an end, a strong feeling of inferiority came over me.

It was like this before, and it is still like this now.

In front of Hamabe Ryoko, she never seemed to have the upper hand, nor had she ever really raised her head.

1/2, please give me a ticket~~~~~~

Chapter 174 Determination [3K4]

Coming out of the coffee shop, Watanabe Yu declined Ming Haijiro's offer to take them home.

After watching Meikai Jiro and his group get on the car and leave, Watanabe Yu and Hamabe Ryoko smiled at each other, took a step forward, and started their journey home.

Maybe it’s because it rained yesterday, so although the sun is still shining brightly today, the feeling of heat is much less than before.

"I thought this contract wouldn't go smoothly."

Ryoko Hamabe turned her head and her eyes fell on the golden wheat field.

When she came back yesterday, she could still vividly remember the scene of the wheat waves waving in the cool breeze.

"Why do you think so?"

Watanabe Yu stretched lazily with a relaxed look.

According to the timeline in the contract, he only needed to record the male and female duet version of "Fireworks" before mid-September.

There is plenty of time and he doesn't need to rush.

"In my impression, business cooperation involving mutual interests often starts with an unrealistic request."

Hamabe Ryoko spoke her mind honestly.

"Then, both Party A and Party B will begin to slowly make concessions based on this unrealistic request and eventually get a condition that both parties can accept, right?"

Yu Watanabe filled in the blanks left by Ryoko Hamabe.

"Yes."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer.

"Generally speaking, that's true, but today's situation is a little different." Watanabe Yu paused, "Do you remember the contract we printed out together yesterday?"

In order to print the contract, they walked into the rain again with umbrellas in hand and walked in the slightly bleak rain for half an hour.

"remember."

Ryoko Hamabe turned her head and looked at the profile of Yuu Watanabe.

"The contract given by Ming Haijiro today is basically the same as the one we printed yesterday."

"ah!??"

"The contract is with Yamano Yuzhi. Well, this old man is very famous and influential in the music industry. He is also Yuki's mother's teacher. Most importantly, Ming Haijiro got my contact information from him."

Watanabe Yu met Hamabe Ryoko's gaze and gave her a look that said 'I understand, right?'

"understood."

Hamabe Ryoko showed an expression of 'I see'.

"In short, success is a good thing."

Watanabe Yu withdrew his gaze and refocused his attention on the country road under his feet.

The roads were empty and no cars were passing by. Compared to Tokyo at the same time, Azumi Village was undoubtedly much quieter.

"Today, thank you."

Hamabe Ryoko's voice was very soft.

She felt that she should still say this.

At least let him know that she felt his kindness.

"Why are you so distant all of a sudden?"

Watanabe Yu asked in a joking tone.

"It has nothing to do with being estranged. I just felt that I should thank you, just like I asked you why you thanked me."

Hamabe Ryoko corrected Watanabe Yuu's statement.

"You are going to use my words to shut me up, right?"

Watanabe Yu rolled his eyes, feeling a little amused.

“This is called learning and applying.”

Hamabe Ryoko blinked, and her fair hand seemed to brush the back of his hand accidentally.

"Then I have to be more careful in the future and not teach you too much, otherwise you will learn my tricks and I will have nothing to say."

Watanabe Yu's tone was still relaxed, and he was joking with Hamabe Ryoko.

"you can not do that!"

Hamabe Ryoko pursed her lips.

"why?"

"No reason."

"That's unreasonable, isn't it?"

"Yes."

"...Okay, I surrender then."

Yu Watanabe did not hesitate to replicate the French military salute with practical actions.

As they sang in unison, the two looked at each other.

Just like before, even though they had tensed their faces, after three and a third minutes, they couldn't hold it back anymore and burst out laughing.

"Actually, I don't hate Nagasaki Natsuko that much."

After laughing, Hamabe Ryoko said this sentence naturally.

"I know."

Watanabe Yu was not surprised at all.

He could see that Ryoko never took Nagasaki Natsuko seriously from beginning to end.

In her eyes, the latter is probably just an 'NPC' who can say some unpleasant words?

but……

"Whether you hate her or not is your business. What I do is my business. She caused trouble for you and bullied you before. You may not care, but I do."

Watanabe Yu's tone was firm.

"I am already moved by what you said."

Hamabe Ryoko smiled and turned her face away, her short hair hiding her expression.

She pursed her thin lips, her expression showing some emotion.

"It's a pity that this isn't an urban drama. If it were, I should ask you again why you're so nice to me."

She paused and said this in a still relaxed tone.

"How would the leading male character in an urban drama usually answer?"

Watanabe Yu took up the conversation.

According to the itinerary, they will set out on their return journey tomorrow.

Although Anzumi Village is indeed a little quieter than the city, it is indeed a good place for people to completely relax and rest after being tired.

"Generally speaking, the male lead will say something very embarrassing, and then rub the female lead's head."

Ryoko Hamabe slowed down her pace and adjusted her fluctuating emotions.

"Unfortunately, I'm not good at saying embarrassing things."

Watanabe Yu sighed.

If it was some cheesy love talk, he could say it right away.

He knows so much about things like "I'm having an IV drip", "What kind of IV drip?" and "I miss you".

"It doesn't matter. What you just said is already a plus."

Ryoko Hamabe took the initiative to hold Watanabe Yu's hand.

"If that's the case, then I probably know what to say."

Watanabe Yu paused for a moment and kept the topic in suspense.

"for example?"

Hamabe Ryoko looked at him expectantly.

"Because you are my little stingy girl, I am the only one who can bully you!"

Watanabe Yu held her hand tightly.

"...Yes, yes, yes, only you can bully me. You are too domineering."

Hamabe Ryoko's voice softened all of a sudden, and her cute earlobes were stained with a layer of rose pink.

If anyone else had said this to her, she would have rolled her eyes. If she was in a bad mood, she would have slapped that person.

But the person who said this was Yu Watanabe.

She didn't hate him saying that.

So, just let him be.

*

It started raining again in Azumi Village after nightfall.

In the cold rain, the whole village seemed to be wrapped in a layer of gauze.

Lying on the relatively hard tatami, Hamabe Ryoko looked at the ceiling above her head that was both familiar and unfamiliar, and was silent for a moment.

She suffers from insomnia.

The rain hit the roof, creating a rather unique sound.

Her thoughts drifted back to the afternoon.
