Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK

The only snacks he is more accepting of are crepes and taiyaki.

"Yes."

Watanabe Yu gave an affirmative answer.

"But crepes and taiyaki are okay?"

Ryoko Hamabe hugged her legs and looked at the lighted house in the distance in the warm light of the lawn.

"Yes, this is one of my few little hobbies."

Watanabe Yu turned around and looked at her.

After taking a shower, Ryoko Hamabe changed into new clothes, which was a very standard summer outfit.

A simple white short-sleeved shirt paired with white high-waisted shorts.

But I don’t know if it’s because the short-sleeved shirt is too loose or what, but the hem of the short-sleeved shirt covers the high-waisted shorts, making those slender and well-proportioned legs look even taller.

Without exaggerating, this pair of legs should be among the top 3 leg models.

"Is this also part of habitual restraint?"

Ryoko Hamabe turned her head and her pretty little face rested gently on her legs.

"Well, if I must say, it is?"

"It's so hard, just like being an ascetic monk."

Hamabe Ryoko muttered softly, with some indescribable emotions between her brows.

"I think it's okay, wait..."

Watanabe You was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something.

"You're not feeling sorry for me, are you?"

"Yes, I just feel sorry for you."

Hamabe Ryoko admitted it openly.

"We're just getting started."

Watanabe Yu waved his hand and lay down on the picnic mat.

"Ryoko, let me ask you a question."

"You said."

"What do you think is the ultimate goal of life?"

He raised his head, and the bright moon in the night sky was reflected in his eyes.

"What is it?"

"I'm going to the dock to get some chips."

"...?"

"Just kidding, I am just an ordinary person, and the ultimate goal of my struggle is very simple, I just want to have no alarm clock in my life."

Watanabe Yu coughed lightly and said this very frankly.

“…I think this is actually the goal of most people.”

Hamabe Ryoko turned her head and glanced at him.

For some reason, she always felt that when he said this, a hazy sense of distance was added between them.

"Not necessarily. Some people don't think that way. They want to climb to the top step by step."

Watanabe Yu chuckled.

"I don't have that idea."

Ryoko Hamabe also raised her head and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

The residential area is quiet tonight, and the sounds of the night wind and insects are particularly clear.

"Speaking of which, Ryoko, what is your goal in life?"

He asked this question.

"Before, I wanted to study hard, get good grades, and then go to college. After graduation, I wanted to have a decent job with a good salary to support me and my grandmother."

There was a hint of nostalgia in Hamabe Ryoko's voice.

Thinking about it now, those past scenes really passed by so quickly.

"what about now?"

Watanabe Yu heard the hidden meaning in her words.

"Now, the goal has changed a little bit."

Hamabe Ryoko chuckled, stood up and took a few steps forward.

"What kind of change?"

Watanabe Yu understood the hint and took on the role of supporting actor.

"What I want to do now is to help you as much as possible."

She uttered this sentence in a low voice.

"When you said that, my sense of responsibility suddenly rose."

Watanabe Yu sat up, picked up a piece of watermelon and started eating.

The night breeze blew by, and the faint fragrance of her body filled his nostrils.

They were obviously using the same shower gel, but God knew why, her body just smelled better.

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Ryoko Hamabe turned around, lowered her eyes slightly, and a hint of smile appeared between her brows.

"some."

Watanabe Yu nodded.

“Can you maintain this sense of responsibility?”

She blinked.

"Hiss, why does it feel like the topic has suddenly become heavy?"

"Your illusion."

"But, back to the point, in my opinion, you can expand your goal a little bit. For example, don't just limit yourself to helping me."

Watanabe Yu began to persuade him step by step.

"Change your thinking. Let's open up the situation. You should think about how to counterattack and become the president of a large corporation. Then I will cling to you."

"...It seems so."

Hamabe Ryoko nodded thoughtfully.

"So, the most important thing for you right now is to maintain your current pace of life. There's no need to think too much. Losing the watermelon just for the sesame seeds is not worth it no matter how you think about it, right?"

"That's not the case, Yuu."

Hamabe Ryoko shook her head.

"For me, I care more about the present than the future you mentioned. It is very important for me to be able to help you."

"...Thank you. My favorability is already rising rapidly."

"uh-huh."

Hamabe Ryoko chuckled and then changed the subject.

"You, what is your goal? I mean something more specific."

She wanted to know what he was thinking.

"To be more specific... For now, I hope to make further progress in my career."

Only in this way can the eaves that shelter from wind and rain be truly worthy of the name.

“…That’s going to be very tiring.”

There was a hint of heartache in Hamabe Ryoko's slightly cold voice.

"Isn't life always tiring? You should understand this better than I do."

Watanabe Yu chuckled and changed to a more comfortable position.

“We can only move forward, just like the relationship between light, shadow, and people. If you lose the light, even the shadow will leave you.”

"I think what you said is inappropriate."

She met his gaze.

"Please feel free to give me some advice."

Watanabe Yu sat up straight and looked as if he was listening attentively.

Under the reflection of the light, his shadow swayed slightly.

"In fact, whether there is light or not, the shadow is always there. When there is light, you can see it. When there is no light, it stays by your side silently."

Ryoko Hamabe took a few steps forward and stepped into his shadow cast by the lawn lamp.

“It’s a romantic way of saying it.”

"I mean……"

Ripples appeared in Hamabe Ryoko's autumn-water eyes.

When their eyes met, each other's faces were reflected in their eyes.

“If you feel too tired in the process of chasing the light, you might as well look back. I have always been there.”

Her voice was soft.

"They will see your shining side, but behind the light, your fragile side in the shadow, leave it to me, okay?"

The night wind blows by, and you can hear a pin drop in the quiet residential area.

"Of course, I don't mean to force you to give me an answer right now."

She smiled brightly.

"When you want to tell me the answer, the answer itself will make sense, so before you want to give me an answer, I will work harder to make you like me!"

Amemiya family, inside the villa.

"So, he's moving today, right?"

Amemiya Ayana turned her head and her eyes fell on the face of Butler Tezuka.

"Yes, ma'am."

The old butler nodded.

"Well, postpone tomorrow's schedule. I'll go over there."

Her school trip just ended today, so logically, she should follow the itinerary tomorrow.

But she didn't know what was wrong with her, she just wanted to take a day off to meet Mr. Troll.

"Ok."

The old butler nodded slightly.

"Then I will take my leave."

After saying this, he turned and left the study.

Click.

Hearing the sound of the door being closed gently, the Saint Miss thought for a moment, took out her cell phone, opened Line, and then clicked into the chat with the panda avatar.

After considering the words, she typed out a line of text and clicked send.
