Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

"……I know."

Hamabe Ryoko responded in a low voice.

"How about this." The store manager leaned back slightly, and the old chair creaked softly, "Let me tell you a story from when I was young.

“When I was in high school, I had a very good friend.

"He is quite popular in the class because he is good at sports and academics, but he is a bit slow. Although he keeps saying that he wants to fall in love, he has never thought about falling in love.

"But like the saying goes, when you don't even want to be in a relationship, someone always seems to notice the spark in you.

"At the time, there were two girls who both liked my friend and gave him all kinds of hints, but my stupid friend didn't see anything.

"Then... one of the girls, let's call her Girl A.

“Female A was about to give up.

"Girl A felt that she was not as good as the other girl, Girl B, in any way. Plus, my friend was so stupid, so it seemed pointless to continue pestering her."

At this point, the store manager shook his head unconsciously.

How many beauties love idiots, and how many idiots don't cherish them.

"So, has she given up?"

Hamabe Ryoko asked in a low voice.

"She didn't give up." The store manager shook her head. "She said she tried to give up, but when she saw another girl walking with him and laughing, her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.

"She said she couldn't just turn a blind eye, let alone say anything substantive to wish them well.

“She just wanted to be the one standing next to him.

"Oh, by the way, Girl A and my friend live very close to each other, we are neighbors, and our parents are also good friends."

The memories in his eyes became more and more intense.

"……and after?"

Hamabe Ryoko still didn't raise her head.

But there was already a hint of anticipation on that fair little face buried in her arms.

"Later." The store manager's thoughts were pulled back to reality. "Girl A's parents happened to be on a business trip at that time, so she acted like a spoiled child in front of them and used some tricks to convince my friend's parents.

"Naturally, she moved into my friend's house.

“Although we are not in the same room, we are under the same roof after all.

"It took only about one summer vacation for Girl A and my friend to get along better and better.

"After the summer vacation, Girl B realized something was wrong and wanted to make amends, but it seemed too late.

"A year later, which was also the year she graduated from high school, Girl B chose to quit."

After he finished speaking, a hint of emotion appeared on the store manager's face.

Now that I think about it, his wife really does come up with some amazing ideas.

"Um, the friend you mentioned, is it you?"

Hamabe Ryoko raised her head.

She seemed to realize something.

"bingo~"

The store manager smiled heartily and admitted it openly.

"Now that I think about it, I was really stupid back then."

He smiled at himself, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"But my wife was indeed a bit too 'despicable'. She deceived me to the point where I couldn't tell east from west. Even now, I still haven't gotten over it."

"Your face is full of happiness, and your expression looks like you are willing to do it."

"Is it that obvious?"

“It’s that obvious.”

"Okay." The store manager spread his hands frankly and changed the subject, "Hamabe, are you still leaving at the appointed time today?"

"No, I can leave work at eight today."

Hamabe Ryoko shook her head.

Since You wasn't coming back for dinner, there was no need for her to go back on time.

"Then I'll let you take over my shift, okay?"

The store manager patted his trouser legs and stood up.

"As for salary, it will be calculated based on the overtime hourly rate. After all, I had something urgent to do and asked you to cover for me."

When settling the bill, he would pay her according to his hourly wage.

He knew that Hamabe Ryoko was going on a school trip next week.

You are such a grown-up, how can you go out without any money?

"……thank you."

"Don't say that. Anyway, my wife has always advocated the idea that people who wait for others to give them happiness will never be happy."

The manager waved his hand, opened the door of the lounge and walked out.

card wipe.

The door to the lounge closed.

Looking at the store manager leaving, Hamabe Ryoko pondered for a moment.

Will there be no happiness in the end...

She reached out her hand and gently patted her cheek to clear her mind faster.

She lowered her gaze.

The long eyelashes were stained with a layer of white light without a main light.

Isn't the manager's wife's behavior a bit too despicable?

However, the pressure from the 'Saint Lady' was indeed too great.

She gritted her teeth and her thoughts drifted back to late Tuesday night.

She couldn't sleep that night.

Unable to sleep, she somehow left the house, leaned against the railing outside her door, staring at the drizzling rain, in a daze.

then.

She saw him getting out of the car and her sending him back.

Her intuition told her that there was something unusual between that pretty girl and You.

That beautiful girl must be the 'Saint Lady' that You mentioned.

Buzz. Buzz.

Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated twice.

Her thoughts were also pulled back to reality.

Opening her phone, she glanced at the message. It was a text message.

The sender is the landlady, and judging from the content of the message, it is probably a mass message.

【Dear tenants】

[As the existing lease contract of the house is about to expire, we would like to inform you that since the house needs to be renovated and maintained, we have decided not to renew the lease after the lease contract expires.]

[Existing lease contract expiration date: July 2012, 7 in the new calendar]

[Please arrange your relocation properly before the lease expires and move all personal belongings out of the house]

[If you need any help or have any questions during the relocation process, please feel free to contact me. We will do our best to assist you in completing the relocation smoothly]

Yaleju has always been an apartment with monthly payment, and the rent payment date is the fifth of every month.

This means that from the 10th of next month, she will be homeless.

Then this should satisfy the prerequisite of that sentence at that time.

Ryoko Hamabe pursed her thin lips, and her thoughts suddenly became active. The confusion just now seemed to have an answer at this moment.

She raised her head and looked at the light above her head.

The white light made her squint.

The dizzy feeling from before came over me again.

Just like what the store manager's wife said, if she really had to quit and watch the 'Saint Lady' and You being together, she couldn't do it.

She almost suffocated just thinking about that scene.

and so……

Her eyes gradually became firmer.

She decided!

Be despicable if you can, it’s better than regretting it later!

Chapter 108 Landlord [Two in One]

It was around seven in the evening, and the sky, which should have been filled with fiery clouds, suddenly became dark.

After settling for about ten minutes, a light rain began to fall from the sky. The drizzling rain soaked the dry ground, but did not take away the heat from the surface after being exposed to the sun for many days.

Half an hour later, the scattered rain turned into raindrops the size of a woman's little fingernail. The translucent rain curtain gradually deepened, and the sound of dripping rain instantly occupied the whole world.

Ryoko Hamabe, who was sitting on a stool and leaning on the cash register table in a daze, raised her eyes and looked outside the sliding door of the convenience store.

This rain gave her a small 'vacation'.

The street scene outside the store was reflected in those clear eyes.

On the road outside the convenience store, pedestrians holding umbrellas walked hurriedly in groups of three or four. Their shoes stepped on the wet ground, making sticky sounds. In the apartment building a little further away, lights were lit.

The deep rain curtain blurred people's vision outside and slowed down the pace of this steel forest.

"The rain is getting heavier."

Inside the convenience store, a female office worker sitting by the window took a sip of instant milk tea and muttered something under her breath.

Then, she put on a Bluetooth headset, clicked on Line, tapped on the screen with her fingers, and continued chatting with her friends.

Hamabe Ryoko withdrew her gaze from outside the store and took out her cell phone.

Convenience stores that are open 24 hours a day are allowed to fish legally when there are no customers and when there is no need to restock the shelves.

She unlocked the screen, glanced at the empty notification bar, and her eyes gradually moved to the line cursor.

What is he doing now?

After hesitating for a long time, she still didn't click on it.

Forget it, let’s not bother him anymore.

She thought about it, then pressed the lock screen button and put away her phone.

But life always likes to play jokes on people.

The next second after she put away her phone, a buzzing sound began to sound.
