"Thank you for today."
After considering the words for a long time, it was finally Amamiya Ayana who took the initiative to open the conversation.
"You're welcome."
Watanabe You smiled, and his tone was so casual that it sounded like he was just chatting.
He knew very well what kind of answer the Saint Lady wanted at this moment.
"Then, I'm sorry."
Amemiya Ayana lowered her eyes, her eyes full of apology.
"I still got you involved."
Honestly speaking, she was very happy that Watanabe Yu could be her retreat, and was also very happy that he would mention that in front of others - he was her backer, but from beginning to end, she never thought of really involving Mr. Troll, as this was not his responsibility at all.
"Why do you say that? I mean, why apologize?"
Watanabe Yu asked this question even though he knew the answer.
In fact, he knew the reason very well, but if he wanted to resolve the knot in the Saint's heart, he had to do this.
"Because I got you into trouble that you shouldn't have been in."
There was a growing sense of apology in her slightly cold voice.
"What do you mean by trouble?" Watanabe Yu paused and asked with a smile, "I asked you to help contact the hospital. It's actually a trouble, isn't it?"
From their first meeting till now, the connection between them has become closer and closer, and their understanding of each other has become deeper and deeper, but the knot in the Saint's heart has also become tighter and tighter.
To put it jokingly, it was a feeling of suffocation, like being entangled by a python.
In the past, she could complain to him about life without any scruples, but now, she seldom tells him about those bad things. Instead, she digests and bears them alone.
He could understand her worries and knew what she was afraid of. He also saw clearly that the Saint Lady had no intention of expressing the reason for her worries.
"That's different."
Amamiya Ayana denied his statement.
After all, helping him contact the hospital was just a matter of convenience and would not cause any trouble to her life.
"it's the same."
Watanabe Yuu stopped.
The two stopped at the intersection.
In the heavy drizzle, the indicator lights on the pedestrian crossing were wetted by the rain, emitting a slightly dazzling red light.
"That's different."
She repeated it again, her little face full of seriousness.
"It's the same for me." Watanabe Yu thought for a moment and changed his mind. Since the roundabout way of saving the country didn't work, he would get straight to the point. "You feel sorry, but it's just your one-sided feeling. Let me ask you a question. Have you ever asked for my opinion?"
"..."
The Saint Miss fell silent.
She didn't know how to answer this question.
Ding, ding, ding.
The pedestrian crossing light turned green, and the two of them took a step forward.
"You didn't even ask me, but you thought it would cause me trouble, or make me feel uncomfortable, and then you kept those things in your heart with this reason. Your starting point is good, but don't you think it's a bit hypocritical?"
Watanabe Yu pointed this out bluntly without any hesitation.
"..."
Amemiya Ayana still didn't say anything and just remained silent.
"Of course, what I said is arrogant. After all, I haven't experienced what you have experienced, so I can't fully empathize with you or understand your feelings." Watanabe Yu paused, his tone unconsciously becoming more intense, "But you have to at least tell me.
"We have to try it to know if it works, right?
"Now that you have omitted even the step of communication, I don't even have a channel to know, what should I do?
“Not communicating will only create rifts.
“Even close friends can have gaps. When you talk things out, it turns out that they are not as complicated as you think.
"If you hide your emotions deep in your heart and don't speak them out, then you can only digest them by yourself. Yes, digesting them by yourself is indeed the norm. Life is lonely.
"But the problem is, have you ever thought about it? Life is never reasonable. When you haven't digested the previous part of the bad mood, difficult things will come one after another. Life is a problem after problem, and you can't solve all the problems.
"So what do you do now? Continue to endure and digest it yourself?
“In the end, I couldn’t digest it all and I collapsed. Some people can continue to move forward after the collapse, but some people need a long time to recover after the collapse.
"Before, you could digest it by yourself, or you could only digest it by yourself, but now it's different, you are no longer alone.
“You can trust me, that’s the most important thing.
"Do you get me?"
To put it in a positive way, the Saint Lady was thinking about him and was afraid that he would worry, but the actual effect was that even though she didn't say it, he could see that he was even more worried.
He hoped that she would understand that if she encountered problems that could not be solved, she should speak to him boldly and not keep it in her heart. She also hoped that she would not think from the beginning that it would cause trouble for him and involve him in troubles that he should not be involved in.
"...I understand. I won't do that again."
The Saint Lady lowered her head and apologized honestly.
As soon as she said this, the annoyance that had been accumulating in her heart suddenly disappeared, and her mood suddenly became much more relaxed.
She actually analyzed herself and wondered why she was so afraid of him getting involved in those things.
Being afraid that he should have to endure something he shouldn't have to endure was only the superficial reason. The deeper reason, or the core reason, was that she was afraid that he would leave her because of this.
No man likes a woman who brings endless trouble.
But what he said now dispelled most of her concerns.
"There's an old Chinese saying that goes, 'He who knows the current affairs... no, it's the one who knows how to deal with things that are the most outstanding!' Of course, this saying is not very appropriate here, but I want to use it anyway, so tell me what you're worried about. I mean, be more specific."
Watanabe Yu glanced at the road sign in the distance.
They were already halfway there, and if they walked another halfway they would reach the main road where they could get a taxi.
"…I'm afraid that you will come into conflict with Amamiya Masao, my father, because of me. He is a man who only cares about profit and will try every possible way to exploit and scheme against you. I don't want you to be involved. The previous incident with Amamiya Teppei has already made him notice you."
Amemiya Ayana was silent for a moment, then gave a truthful answer.
"The results of it?"
There was a hint of nonchalance in Watanabe Yu's tone.
Some things cannot be avoided just because you want to.
As long as the Saint Lady is still in contact with him, he will have to pass the level of Amamiya Masao. It's just the difference between noticing him earlier and later.
"In the end, you still confronted him."
The Saint Lady sighed, with a hint of confusion in her tone.
"and!"
She changed the subject, looking up at Watanabe Yuu's profile with a smile, and poked his face lightly with her free hand in annoyance, reminding him, "What you did just now was very irrational, regardless of the identity of the girl who was picking on you.
"Just because you are a public figure now, you can't act rashly. If people hype it up a little, it will bring you a bad reputation.
"Remember not to be so impulsive next time."
After saying that, she gently squeezed his hand.
"This is not a question of being impulsive or not, it's a question of her bullying you. Just like you said, I am your retreat and your support. In life, we will always act impulsively once or twice."
Watanabe Yu shook his head and denied what Amamiya Ayana said.
Besides, just hit him.
If a time traveler is always afraid of this and that, then he might as well stop plagiarizing and just hide like a turtle.
"Besides, don't you feel relieved?"
He added another sentence.
"It's very satisfying, but..."
"That's enough."
Yu Watanabe interrupted her.
"…How can I respond to this?"
Although Amamiya Ayana said this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, outlining a graceful arc.
She wanted to tell herself that she should be reserved and not show her joy at this moment, but the more she tried to control herself, the stronger the joy that came from her heart became.
Maybe it's just like what the saying goes, the more mature and rational a person looks, the more childish and emotional the child deep down in his or her heart will be.
Because of what Mr. Troll said, she could no longer hide the side of 'Ayana', and the childish 'Ayana' had already slipped out.
"You just need to know why I do this."
Watanabe Yu's answer was concise and to the point.
"Then I'll remember that, Mr. Troll."
The Saint Lady hummed softly and returned to her previous lively self.
"Come to think of it, if the waiter at the entrance of the manor hadn't brought an umbrella, we would have started the plot of the TV series now."
Watanabe Yu changed the subject.
"The plot of the TV series?"
The Saint Lady tilted her head, not quite understanding what Mr. Troll meant.
During this time she stayed at Watanabe's house, she had watched quite a few urban dramas, but none of them were related to the situation just now.
"Take off your suit, put it on your head, it's pouring rain, just keep moving forward, got it?"
Watanabe Yu only mentioned the key words, but he knew that Amamiya Ayana should be able to understand the picture.
"understood!"
Amamiya Ayana gave an affirmative answer, and then, with a slight turn of her eyes, she asked, "Do you want to give it a try now?"
She feels there is great potential.
Anyway, her health is pretty good, so she won't catch a cold if she gets caught in a little rain.
"No, I'm not in good health. What if I catch a cold?"
Watanabe Yu shook his head without even thinking about it.
What a joke! You have an umbrella but you don’t use it. Instead you go and recreate a TV drama, right?
So does he have to record another song and sing the classic "Those Years"?
"whispering sound."
The Saint Lady gave him a coquettish look and said nothing.
If his health can be considered poor, then 95% of his peers would have to wonder if they have weak constitutions.
But...
She could understand him though.
She tightened their interlocked hands.
"Let's have a good meal tomorrow!" The Saint Lady blinked, her voice becoming a little more gentle, "Mr. Troll, I want to eat hot pot."
"Sure. When you get back, make a list of the ingredients you want to eat, and then go buy them tomorrow."
Watanabe Yu agreed very readily.
After the Naoki Prize, the Watanabe family's funds were unprecedentedly abundant.
Of course, he didn't use it extravagantly.
"Then..." Amamiya Ayana turned around and looked at Watanabe Yu, "Starting this month, I will also pay your rent and food expenses!"
