Chapter 197 has a plan
The next day.

When the evening sun crossed the city skyline and cast bursts of dazzling light on the glass outside the commercial building, it was evening.

In a cafe outside Shirakawa High School.

Bai Yuan Shizhi, who was sitting by the window, turned her eyebrows away, and her eyes fell on the street separated by the window.

The golden setting sun's rays fell on the ground, stretching people's figures.

It was the peak traffic period in the city, and there was an endless stream of passers-by on the street. Many white-collar workers holding their bags were talking on the phone and walking hurriedly. Among them, many seemed to have just finished their club. The active students, with thin sweat still hanging on their foreheads, walked in the direction of home talking and laughing in small groups.

"I remember, today is the second day of the Shirakawa High School Festival, right?"

Risa Takeda, who was leaning on the leather sofa, raised her eyebrows and opened up the conversation.

"uh-huh."

Baiyuan Shizhi looked away and nodded.

"Did you enjoy the school festival today?"

Risa Takeda picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip.

In her impression, Bai Yuan Shizhi is a quiet girl, but occasionally she will show her cheerful side.

"……have it?"

Bai Yuan Shizhi hesitated for a moment, and gave an ambiguous answer.

In her opinion, she consciously enjoyed the school festival. After all, she visited most of the stalls in the school alone, and then went to sit in the cafe of Class A, Grade [-], for a whole afternoon. Overall, it was It couldn't be more fulfilling.

But if we go by the definition of "cash deposit" by those people, her process cannot be considered "enjoyment" because she is only one person.

"What do you mean 'yes?'" Risa Takeda raised her eyebrows, looked at Bai Yuan Shiori in front of her with some amazement, and complained, "This kind of question cannot be answered in the form of a question no matter how hard you say it. Bar!"

"Uh, because I don't know if I really enjoyed the school festival." Bai Yuan Shizhi's eyes were subtle for a moment, and he explained, "If I'm talking about it by my own standards, I really enjoyed it." of."

"That's alright." Takeda Risa rolled her eyes, "Is it possible that you still want to judge your own feelings by other people's standards?"

"It seems so."

Bai Yuan Shizhi nodded thoughtfully, lowered her eyebrows, and her eyes fell on the cappuccino placed in front of her.

The skill of the barista in this cafe is not bad, and the latte art is quite beautiful.

"How do I feel, you are acting weird today."

Hearing this, Takeda Risa frowned, with a little more confusion in her eyes.

Today's Bai Yuan Shizhi gave her the feeling that something was not quite right. Compared with usual, she was like a completely different person.

In normal times, with Bai Yuan Shizhi's temperament, she would never be able to say the words just now.

Or to put it more bluntly, in terms of personal feelings, Baiyuan Shiwei’s expression method and content are always direct. If you like it, you like it, if you don’t like it, you don’t like it. There will never be ambiguity or ambiguity. answer.

"Maybe it's because of yesterday's divination?"

Bai Yuan Shizhi blinked her eyes and gave an answer in a relaxed tone.

"Yesterday's divination?"

Takeda Risa frowned even more tightly.

Her guess has been confirmed to some extent.

The Baiyuan Shiori she knew would stay away from these mystical things, but at least he would not be easily affected by the results.

"uh-huh."

Baiyuan Shizhi nodded slightly and met his editor's gaze.

"May I ask, what did Shizhi go to divination?"

Risa Takeda hesitated for a moment, but still asked this sentence.

"If this is the case, keep it a secret~"

Bai Yuan Shizhi smiled, put her index finger lightly in front of her lips, and made a 'silence' gesture.

"..."

After the words fell, Takeda Risa fell silent.

Ren Baiyuan and Shizhi have already talked about this, and she can't say anything more.

What's more, as far as her speech just now is concerned, it is actually overstepped. As the responsible editor, she should not ask these questions.

After all, these are personal issues.

However, she didn't stay silent for too long. After deliberating her words, she began to mention the serious matter, "About your new book, the market's response is very good. It may be released again this weekend or around next Monday." It's going to be printed again."

Hearing this, the old god Baiyuan Shizhi said "hmm", "It's pretty good."

really……

Weird.

Takeda Risa's expression was weird for a moment, "Then there is the recommendation on the reprint of the book." She hesitated for a moment, but still said her thoughts, "If possible, it would be best to ask Beichuan to write it. of."

Given Beichuan's current popularity, having him write the recommendation for the book can be regarded as adding a bit of enthusiasm to her new book.

"That's it." Bai Yuan Shizhi held the coffee cup with both hands, feeling the cool touch from the cup surface, she thought about it, and said, "I can talk to him."

"Of course, if it's inconvenient, we can also contact him through his responsible editor, Miss Kanno."

Risa Takeda added another sentence in a timely manner.

She is aware of the things between her author and Bei Chuan, a peer of the same age, and even more aware that Bai Yuan Shizhi is the type who is not willing to cause trouble for others.

Instead of letting Bai Yuan Shizhi talk about it, it's better to let the editors take care of it.

Of course, in fact, she also knows in her heart that between a man and a woman, the occasional request for help can make the relationship between a man and a woman closer.

However, she felt that there was no need to speak to such an extent.

After all, Shiori really hates others telling her things.

"Thank you Risa-san for your kindness, but for this, I'll leave it to him myself."

However, beyond Takeda Risa's expectation, Baiyuan Shiori shook his head and clearly rejected his proposal.

"I understand."

Takeda Risa hesitated for a moment, looked at Bai Yuan Shiori, and finally chose to respect her author's ideas.

If she shouldn't ask, she shouldn't ask.

What's more, matters between young people should be resolved by young people themselves.

*
Beiyuan's house, in the study.

Beiyuan Zhengyu rubbed his swollen brows, and there was a bit of helplessness between his brows.

God knows what happened to Beiyuan Risa. In the past few days, she suddenly started chatting with him about the issues between her daughter and A Che, but the content of the conversation was still difficult for him to talk to.

For example, does he like his grandson or his granddaughter?

He personally felt that it was too early for his wife to think about such a problem.

At the age of Beichuan Che and Beiyuan Linyin, both of them have not yet graduated from high school, or even just entered high school. It is a bit too 'far-sighted' to start thinking about these things at this time.

Boom, boom, boom.

There was a knock on the door.

Beiyuan Zhengyu glanced at the time on the clock on the wall, sighed in his heart, and was forced to say the somewhat reluctant "please come in".

Don't even think about it, the person outside the door is Beiyuan Lisha.

Click.

With the sound of the door opening, Beiyuan Risa, wearing a light yellow dress, walked in with a fruit plate, "Zhengyu, I cut some fruits for you."

After her words fell, Beiyuan Risa gently placed the fruit plate on the desk, then found a single sofa and sat down.

"Thank you."

Beiyuan Zhengyu first thanked him honestly, and then glanced at the fruit in the fruit plate.

It was not much different from what he expected. The fruits were all his favorite fruits.

In this regard, she was very careful from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, the helplessness in his heart faded a little.

"Miao and I talked on the phone last night."

There was no such thing as careful consideration of words, and there was no such thing as a so-called prologue. After Lisha sat in Beiyuan, the wife of the Beiyuan family got straight to the point and got down to business.

"Miao talked with you on the phone?"

Beiyuan Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at his wife in disbelief.

If you want to say who cares most about Miao, Che and Rinyin in this family, without even thinking about it, it must be Risa.

From his point of view, his wife's attention to the three little guys has gone too far.

"Yes." Beiyuan Lisha met her husband's gaze, and frowned slightly, "You don't think I took the initiative to call, do you?"

"Uh..." Beiyuan Zhengyu laughed sarcastically and said haha, "How could it be!"

Gee.

Beiyuan Lisha rolled her eyes and glared at this guy.

After spending so long with her husband, how could she not know what this guy was thinking.

"Ahem." Beiyuan Zhengyu coughed slightly and changed the topic, "So, what did Miao tell you?"

Beiyuan Lisha didn't continue to entangle on this topic, organized her words, and then answered her husband's question, "Tell me something about their recent situation."

"The last time I called you was four days ago?"

Beiyuan Zhengyu thought for a while, and asked tentatively based on his memory.

I don’t know since when, the frequency of their contact with Miao and the others has increased inexplicably. From once a month, to once every half month, to now once every three to four days, the progress can be said to be rapid. .

Just ...

The progress of my daughter and Ah Che seems to be stuck.

However, considering Ah Che's personality of making tea with cold water slowly, it's not too strange.

"Yes." Beiyuan Lisha paused, subconsciously lowered her voice, "Miao Shuo, Linyin hopes to go further with Ah Che."

She had been looking forward to this for a long time.

Although it was not appropriate to say this as a mother, she still felt that if she wanted to keep a responsible boy like Ah Che firmly by her side, she needed to take the initiative to pierce the window paper.

This method is simple and crude, but effective.

"In the end, Linyin couldn't bear it any longer."

Beiyuan Zhengyu's expression was complicated for a moment.

He had made such a guess, but after all, he never expected that such a guess would come true so quickly.

"You said that!" Beiyuan Lisha glared at Beiyuan Zhengyu angrily, "Among young people, this is a very normal development!"

In her opinion, her daughter's enlightenment was even a little late.

In matters such as feelings, it is indeed good to be in love with each other in many cases, but when necessary, a little passion is still needed.

For example, the advancement of intimacy with each other, from holding hands, to kissing, to... that step.

From her point of view, no matter how you say this, it is a matter of course and a matter of course.

"I know this is normal. In this regard, I have never opposed it, and I have never said anything, just, I think..." Beiyuan Zhengyu raised his eyebrows, glanced at his wife, and was talking to the pair After looking at each other with eyes full of determination, he chose to surrender without hesitation, "Lisha, what you said is right."

At such a time, just take it easy and you won't die.

"It's almost there."

Beiyuan Lisha pursed her lips and let out a soft snort.

"Anyway, back to the topic." Beiyuan Zhengyu picked up the toothpick and inserted a small piece of apple. "What is Linyin's reason for doing this?"

He knew that Miao was a person who couldn't lie, and she would always tell the truth on these issues.

And Linyin is an extremely stubborn girl. Even ten horses can't pull back what she has decided.

Under such a premise, he has given up the idea of ​​persuasion.

One code can be returned to one code.If you don't persuade, you don't persuade, if you are curious, you are curious.

He really couldn't think of the reason why his daughter, who was still able to hold her breath before, suddenly lost her breath.

"According to Miao's explanation, this school festival made Rinne feel unprecedented pressure." Risa Beiyuan raised her eyebrows, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and forwarded the photo that Miao sent to her. I gave it to my husband and said, "Here, let's take a look."

"it is good."

Beiyuan Zhengyu took out his mobile phone and glanced at the photo sent by his wife.

After carefully looking at Beichuan Che in the photo, he immediately understood.

this kid!
Shaking his head, Beiyuan Zhengyu put away his phone, "I see."

"It may be cruel to say this, but when most people meet a stranger, their first impression starts with their appearance." Beiyuan Risa sighed, "With Ah Che's appearance conditions, coupled with his... The kind of temperament she shows is completely a killer for a girl of this age."

"If I remember correctly, they all participated in the school festival this time?"

Beiyuan Zhengyu didn't answer, but instead asked a question.

"Yes." Beiyuan Lisha added, "To be more precise, both Linyin and Che are baristas."

"Then with Linyin's temperament, Ah Che was treated like that..." Beiyuan Zhengyu considered his words, "'coveting', she must have done something, right?"

"Linyin did it." Beiyuan Lisha gave her husband a meaningful look, "But do you think that with Linyin's temperament, would she feel a sense of crisis, or be jealous?"

"Her words..."

Beiyuan Zhengyu looked embarrassed, and those duplicitous words were still swallowed back in his throat.

"Here, your expression is very self-explanatory, so what else is there to ask?" Beiyuan Lisha withdrew her gaze, turned her head up, and looked at the unowned lamp in the study, "More What's more, Linyin already had this plan in mind."

"Is this considered an accelerant?"

"more or less."

"Then, how wonderful?"

"If it's wonderful, it's up to her."

After the words fell, Beiyuan Zhengyu and Beiyuan Risa looked at each other and became quiet.
