"Yes, if Lian goes with you, you think Yutenji Wakamugi will be devastated."
[As if I understood what you meant,]
"Okay, I understand, Onii-sama."
"That's it, see you in three months..."
"Brother, see you in three months!"
You and your sister agreed to meet again in three months. Interestingly, you both didn't mention where you would meet. In the past, you would have agreed to meet at this house, but this time, neither you nor your sister mentioned it.
You moved out.
You didn't have much luggage to take, something you only realized after moving out. A few clothes, a computer, and some accessories were all you had. Most of these were actually bought for you by Yutenji Wakami.
[Seeing this, you actually know that you and Yutenji Wakami are in love, but sometimes, love can't solve all problems.]
You found a very cheap apartment and settled in. You didn't choose the low-rent apartment because you were short of money; money is something you have plenty of these days. It's because you knew you'd probably be leaving soon, so if you were just staying there temporarily, you didn't have many requirements.
Your new apartment is a bit dingy because it's public housing, so you clean it inside and out by yourself. When you're done, you check the time. It's already dusk. Normally, you'd be typing at this time, but now, having finished cleaning, you just glance at your computer and walk out the door with a smile.
You think you'll probably never write another book in your lifetime.
So you pick up your phone and walk out the door, planning to find a place to eat.
[And just after you picked up your phone, you realized that it seemed to have been bombarded with calls, countless missed calls and messages, none of which you answered because you were busy cleaning your new house all day.]
【"Hello?"】
[“Lu Li, where are you?”]
You called back one of the missed calls, and within ten seconds, the other end of the line was connected. The moment the call was connected, the voice on the other end reached your ears. It was urgent.
"Xiangzi, I was just about to go out to eat. What's wrong?" You said with a smile.
"Eating? You're not checking your phone while eating? We've been calling you all day, why didn't you call us back?"
"We're moving today. I was busy this afternoon and didn't see it. I just finished cleaning now. It wasn't intentional. Sorry."
"Don't apologize to me, tell me where you are!"
"I'm right next to my home."
“Where are you going to eat?”
"I haven't decided on a place yet. There's a yakitori place nearby that I think might be the best. It doesn't look crowded. I wonder if it's good."
“Send location!”
[“Eh? Xiangzi, are you coming over? This place doesn’t look very good. Business is very poor, and the prices are not high. I don’t think it’s a good place…”]
"It's not me, it's us. Send us the location, we'll be there soon!"
After saying this, without giving you a chance to refuse, Toyokawa Shoko on the other end of the line hangs up. Seeing this, you feel helpless and have no choice but to send your location to Toyokawa Shoko.
After sharing your location, you walk into the yakitori restaurant. It's pretty much what you expected. It's not very good. It's old and run-down, with few customers and a small space. Any izakaya in Tokyo would probably outdo this place. But none of that really matters to you; you just want to be full.
You walk into the restaurant and sit down, slowly ordering a drink. As you sip, you think about what to eat. Just now, Shoko Toyokawa mentioned "they," which makes you a little worried. Who exactly is this "they" referring to? Is it everyone? Or is it just her and one person?
[If you don't know the number of people, you won't know how to order. ]
Just when you were worried about how to place your order, the previously empty Yakitori restaurant suddenly welcomed a new wave of customers. This time, they were a cart of bread men, or rather, your old friends.
[Toyokawa Shoko, Wakaba Mutsu, Yawata Kairin, Sankaku Hatsuka, and the drummer girl who replaced you and joined the band, they are all here.]
"So fast?" You glanced at your phone, your eyes widening. From the time you made the call to the time you sat down in the shop, it had taken less than ten minutes, and Xiangzi had actually arrived with a cart full of bread.
"Have you ordered?" Ignoring your silly expression, Toyokawa Shoko, now the leader of a famous band, immediately ordered the first large batch of food after realizing you hadn't ordered anything. Then, she and the band members gathered around you.
The meal was pleasant and ordinary. Although the van arrived with such a strong presence, the meal was truly dull. No one talked about random things; everyone just chatted about ordinary things. As for you and Yutenji Wakamugi, or why you moved, no one mentioned anything.
[At most, the gentle Sanjiao Chuhua asked why you didn't ask for help with cleaning after moving. Everyone could have helped you.]
"It's not much, I'll just keep myself busy." You replied to Sanjiao Chuhua.
【“Yeah.” After getting the answer, seeing that you were still smiling, Sanjiao Chuhua didn’t continue the kiss.】
The six members of the band sat together, enjoying a simple yet lively meal. It was clearly just a cheap and ordinary yakitori restaurant, but everyone was enjoying the meal.
The meal was over quickly, as if they had simply come to share a meal with you. The band members arrived in a rush and left in a rush.
[It's just that there were six people when they came, but when they left, only four left. The remaining two people didn't leave in a hurry.]
Seeing that Toyokawa Shoko and Hachiman Kailing hadn't left, you didn't say anything. The three of you walked side by side on this deserted street, you in the middle, with the two of you flanking you from either side.
"What's going on between you and Yutenji Wakami?"
Without the other members, Toyokawa Shoko's questions became more straightforward.
"I said it's okay, Xiangzi, do you believe me?"
After hearing your answer, Toyokawa Shoko glanced at you and said, "Ask Hailing if she believes it. If she does, then I will believe it too."
"Okay, there's a little problem." You know you can't fool these two people, or really, you can't fool anyone.
"Where is she?" asked Toyokawa Shoko.
"She's probably socializing right now? Maybe at some high-end cocktail party?" You thought for a moment and replied, "She just had a press conference today. She should be very busy right now."
"I'm busy..." Hearing you say that, Toyokawa Shoko glanced at you, but she didn't say, "I'm busy enough to leave you like this."
"Lu Li, are you and Miss Yutenji okay?" Toyokawa Shoko fell silent. This time, it was Hachiman Kailing who asked the question.
"Of course it's okay. She still loves me deeply, and so do I."
【“…”】
[Hearing you talk about love so casually, Hachiman Kailing's eyes flickered. Is that really the case? ]
If they really still loved each other, how could Yutenji Wakamugi let you wander around alone at this time?
Love may exist, but the depth is probably gone.
"Lu Li, what are you going to do next?" Toyokawa Shoko asked.
"What else can I do? I'll just wait to go home." This time, you answered straightforwardly. You really did want to go home. Although you knew it was unlikely, if there was still a slight chance, you still hoped your lover would change his mind.
"Well, it's best to be able to go home." Hachiman Kailing nodded beside her.
"What if we can't go back?" Unlike Hachiman Kairin, Toyokawa Shoko was much more straightforward. She wasn't going to pamper Yutenji Wakami, and she saw the current situation clearly.
"Then just lie down. I've made a lot of money writing light novels anyway. From now on, I plan to be a lazy bum and live a comfortable life." You replied with a smile.
"Are you not writing light novels anymore?"
“I won’t write anymore.”
"What about writing lyrics and composing music?"
“I won’t do it anymore.”
"Leaving Tokyo?"
“I actually want to leave if I can.”
[“Okay, I understand.”]
"Xiangzi, what do you know?" You feel helpless when you hear Toyokawa Xiangzi's tone.
"You know what I know." Toyokawa Shoko added, "Hai Ling knows it too."
"That's not good." You sighed.
"It's not your turn to say whether it's good or not. You're the biggest loser." Toyokawa Shoko said stubbornly.
"Maybe there's a chance things will turn around. Maybe everyone in the band will receive an invitation to my wedding in three months."
"If that's the case, I'll bring my band to give you a performance to celebrate. I swear all the songs are new, the kind I wrote myself!" Toyokawa Shoko said firmly.
"Okay, it's a deal." Finding out you could get a free performance, you immediately agreed.
"These are my conditions. What about you? Lu Li, you're not trying to get something for nothing, are you?"
"Then tell me, Xiangzi, what do you want? To be honest, you've seen my current state. If I lose, I won't be able to give you anything, and neither will you or Hailing."
"What are you thinking? I don't need you to give it to me, and I don't need you to give it to Hailing. If you lose, we both have one request."
"What's the request?"
"Go wash your eyes, and also, wash your heart!"
【Wash your eyes and wash your heart at the same time. 】
After seeing off Hachiman Kailing and Toyokawa Shoko, you, alone in your room, recall what Toyokawa Shoko had said to you.
【Wash your eyes, cleanse your heart, do you need it? 】
[You know you don't need it, because you've never been unable to see clearly or understand clearly from the beginning.]
[It's just that you really like someone, and you almost changed the person you like. Unfortunately, a small mistake can lead to a huge mile. Failure is failure.]
"Sister Miao Meng, three times is the limit. This is the third time. Can you let me win once?"
Your voice echoed in the quiet little room. It seemed as if you were asking this question to Yutenji Wakamugi, but also to yourself.
Three months passed in a flash.
[Of course you didn't send out the wedding invitation to everyone in the band, because what awaits you is a new round of "waiting."]
"Lu Li, the agency said that if I'm willing to renew my contract for another year, they'll continue to invest more in training me to become an international superstar. They said they've arranged a cross-border concert tour for me, and as long as I'm willing..."
[You smiled when you heard Yutenji Wakami's call.]
“Where are you now?”
"I'm in [nostalgia]." Nostalgia is a coffee shop.
"I'll be right there."
【You know Huang Mei won again. 】
【But this time is different, because you have just cleansed your eyes and your heart. 】
......
"Sister Meowmeng... No, Miss Yutenji, we..."
Let's break up.
Volume 4: Chapter Goodbye, Miss Yutenji (K, additional content)
Cafe-Nostalgia.
Huai Nian is a coffee shop that Wakamu Yutenji likes very much. It uses carefully selected Brazilian coffee beans and grinds them by hand by masters. Although the average consumption of tens of thousands of yen per person is a bit high for the coffee category, for Wakamu Yutenji today, this price is nothing.
For a superstar singer with her current income, drinking this kind of coffee is actually a bit of a low-cost option in a sense.
"My dear Miao Meng, after this contract renewal, your overseas tour will be confirmed, right?"
In a private room that had been booked in advance, a close friend of Yutenji Wakamaki was looking at Yutenji Wakamaki with envy.
"Ah."
"That's great. A national tour. This is the last time the higher-ups have praised someone like this."
Hearing what his friend said, a smile appeared on Yutenji Wakamu's face.
Yes, the last time I felt so refreshed was the last time.
The person sitting next to her is a real first-line singer. He looks like a junior high school student and has many fans. The number of albums he has sold is more than the number of fans she had when she was a blogger. It can be said that whether in reality or in the simulation, this kind of person is unattainable to her.
But now, such a popular first-line singer was sitting next to her and looking at her with envy.
A superstar singer, an overseas tour, which one of these is not what this person wants?
But the thing that this person could never get, she now got easily, even though her singing level is not as good as the other person, but this is what is called compound interest. Lu Li's novels have allowed her to accumulate enough fans and reputation, and as long as she is popular enough, she can do things that others can't do.
"It's okay. With your situation, you'll probably be promoted to a queen soon. Then you'll be like me, and we sisters can go on tour together."
Although he felt a little proud in his heart, Yutenji Wakamu had to say the polite words.
No, this is not just a polite remark. After all, Yutenji Wakami really hopes that the person next to her can be promoted again. As for why, it is because this person is already a sister whose status is second only to her in the same company as her.
It is not easy for a queen-level singer to appear. Before Yutenji Wakamaki, the company had not produced a queen-level singer for many years. And this person was the person in the entire company who was closest to and most likely to be promoted to a queen before Yutenji Wakamaki was promoted.
