Chapter 334
Shibuya District, in a cafe in a commercial street.

"Speaking of which, they should be having a barbecue right now, right?"

Baiyuan Shizhi, who was sitting near the window, raised her chin with her left hand. After glancing at the time, she looked out the window with a complicated expression.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Compared with the bright sun in summer, which was not dim at all, the sunshine at this moment had begun to slant slightly. In another hour, it would be almost dusk.

"You'd say they've been roasting for a while."

Rina Tosei, who was sitting opposite Shiori Kashiwahara, shrugged, picked up the cup of Blue Mountain coffee in front of her, and took a sip.

A slightly bitter taste bloomed on the tip of the tongue, and then a sweet taste gradually came back.

"I'm a little envious."

Baiyuan Shizhi pursed her lips, and her beautiful eyes reflected the scene of people coming and going in the street.

Many couples were holding hands, walking forward talking and laughing with happy expressions on their faces.

"Are you envious that they are so happy, or are you envious of..."

Rina Toshima turned her eyebrows, and her eyes fell on Baiyuan Shiori's elegant face, with a hint of teasing in her eyebrows.

She didn't speak too clearly, but her meaning was quite clear.

"I'm all envious."

Bai Yuan Shiori didn't feel any embarrassment at all. She retracted her gaze from the window and met Rina Toshima's eyes openly.

This cafe uses one-way glass, which means people walking outside cannot see inside, but people drinking coffee inside can see outside.

This design avoids a lot of embarrassment.

It is also because of such a small design that this cafe can have a place in the extremely competitive Shibuya area.

"Then let your colleague take everyone there next time."

Rina Toshima blinked.

To be honest, she was actually envious in her heart.

Picnic and barbecue, these two keywords sound very exciting, not to mention that these two keywords can be associated with him.

"Mr. My colleague?" Hearing this, Bai Yuan Shizhi smiled at first, then shook his head bitterly, "I haven't even written my horoscope yet."

From her position, her current relationship with Kitagawa Che was more than friends, but far from lovers.

"Thinking in a positive direction, the horoscope has not even been written yet. In other words, there is a lot of room for improvement." Toshimaru Rina raised her eyebrows and gave Bai Yuan Shiori a 'questioning' look, "Speaking of which , our dinner will be settled here?"

Theoretically speaking, if you want to be full if you want to eat in a cafe like this, the price is not cheap.

But, her dear parents relaxed the restrictions on her and said that if she went out to eat, she could use the card given to her by her family before.

"Rina-san, is there a restaurant you want to go to?"

Hearing this, Shiori Baigen looked at Rina Toshimaro expectantly.

She was really unfamiliar with this part of Shibuya area.

If the other party has good suggestions, she will be very happy. In her words, this is called reasonable selection of materials.

"If this is..."

Hearing this, Toshi Sei Rina looked embarrassed. If you want to go to a restaurant, there must be one, but it's not in Shibuya area.

And as for Shibuya, her memory has stopped before graduating from college.

When she was in college, she would occasionally come here for a stroll. Ever since she started working, her scope of activities has basically been fixed around Bunkyo District.

Occasionally when I go to other bustling areas, I usually book a seat in advance.

Just like what Shiori Baigen said when she came here, she was unfamiliar with Shibuya area.

Even if you check the restaurant online temporarily now, based on the flow of people on this weekend, you will most likely have to wait for a table.

So instead of queuing up, it’s better to have dinner here.

"Then, let's solve it here?"

Seeing Rina Toshima's appearance, Shiori Kashiwahara also read the subtext of the former, and picked up the conversation empathetically.

"No problem." Toshimaru Rina nodded, lowered her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes fell on the novel in her hand.

This book was borrowed from the magazine section in the coffee shop.

The book has been read many times, but because people who borrow it take good care of it, it has no impact except that it looks a little older. There is not even a slight bend in the corners of the pages.

"A little surprised?"

Shiori Kashiwahara, who noticed Rina Toshima's gaze, also looked at the novel, her tone not surprising at all.

This novel was not written by anyone else, but by a certain 'colleague' who did not want to be named.

--"The forest in Norway"

"It's not that surprising." Rina Toshima shook her head, "After all, this book won the Naoki Prize."

However, I personally feel that this book is more than just Naoki Shou.

Silently, she added this sentence in her heart.

Anyway, from her point of view, there is no problem with this book winning awards. After all, quality lies here.

"Is there a feeling that he is with us?"

Baiyuan Shizhi picked up the coffee and asked casually.

"...There are some."

After thinking for a moment, Rina Toshima gave this answer.

"Sister Rina, do you know what my previous dream was?"

After taking a sip of his cappuccino, Shiori Kashiwahara put down the coffee cup, looked at Rina Toshima, and gave her a 'guess' look.

The other party knew her submission from beginning to end.

So it shouldn't be difficult to guess this.

"Let the story you write be seen by many people?"

Rina Toshima recalled it and told her the exact words that Bai Yuan Shiori told her.

"Yes." Bai Yuan Shizhi nodded, "It's just..." She paused and smiled awkwardly, "My thoughts have changed recently."

"Variety?"

Rina Toshima tilted her head and continued to speak in a cooperative manner.

"Yes." Baiyuan Shizhi changed the topic, "Sister Rina, tell me, after a person becomes famous, the person she likes can see her anytime and anywhere? Looking up, It was an advertisement endorsed by her. While waiting for the train, I could see that the first book in the first row in the library was hers.

"Will this make him think of himself all the time?"

Although she is still far away from this goal, she will not give up.

She has no interest in becoming a star, but she does have interest in writing.

Now, this interest is even greater than before.

"Will do."

Thrush Chenglin nodded understandingly.

Now, she is becoming more understanding.

Shiori is really a very romantic person.

"That's why I'm so motivated."

After letting out a long breath, Bai Yuan Shizhi revealed the reason for that day in a pun.

Even if she had to stay up late, she would finish writing the last part when she felt inspired.

She really liked the sentence written by Kitagawa Teru in "Norwegian Wood".

What does it mean to live a life full of rituals?

In the final analysis, when that person is by your side, you spend every minute and every second and everything you do is a moment that you cherish extremely, that is, every moment in your life is full of ritual.
