Chapter 301 Sense of Security [4K6]

“Just now, what happened to you?”

After dinner, while Ayana and Ryoko were washing the dishes and their mother was on the phone, Watanabe Yu pulled Hayakawa Yuki into the living room and asked in a low voice.

When we were talking about the specific appearance of the hot blonde girl just now, her expression was not right.

Although the complex expression only flashed by for a moment, he definitely noticed it.

“Uh, nothing.”

Hearing this, Yuki Hayakawa was stunned at first, then she relaxed her brows and shook her head.

“…”

Watanabe Yu didn’t say anything, but just looked at her silently.

If it was when they just met, this sentence might have really fooled him, but now, times have changed.

She is constantly getting to know him, and likewise, he is constantly getting to know each other.

When Xiao Yuki lies, she will subconsciously relax her brows and smile, then shake her head.

This process has improved a lot since they first met, but the iconic movements have not changed.

“Well, actually, I thought of some not-so-good memories.”

Under his scrutiny, Yuki Hayakawa lowered her eyebrows like a child who had made a mistake.

She immediately suppressed her emotions so as not to affect everyone.

And after dinner, she thought about it carefully.

It is actually unreasonable for me to have such groundless associations.

The area of ​​Tokyo is huge. Not to mention Tokyo, even in Yu’s hometown, Naha City, two people who have had a feud before may not necessarily meet again after that feud.

Furthermore, the blonde hottie is a very standard symbolic image, and most blonde hotties are dressed under this symbol.

In other words, there are only a few descriptive words, and no matter how many times you repeat them, you won’t be able to come up with more.

It all comes down to her being too sensitive.

“When we are alone, you don’t have to hide these things deliberately. Like you said to me before, we are partners, right?”

Watanabe Yu said this very seriously.

The reason why he didn’t use the word “couple” is because everyone is like this.

——After becoming a couple with the person you like, especially in the first three months, you will care a lot about your own image, restrain your “bad” side and develop your “good” side.

In other words, I hope to leave a good impression on the other party.

“……Yes.”

Yuki Hayakawa was silent for half a second, but still gave an affirmative answer.

“So, can you promise me something?”

“Ok?”

“Be honest. Whether it’s good things that make people happy or bad things that make people unhappy, we should be honest with each other. Communication can help us understand each other better, rather than just hiding things and keeping silent.”

As Watanabe Yuu said this, he looked at her who raised her head.

Their eyes met in the air.

His face was reflected in her eyes.

“it is good.”

Xiao Yuki nodded obediently.

Her mother also told her something similar, that a good relationship is when both parties are looking in the same direction.

If there are any problems, you can talk about them openly. When the other person is feeling down, be a qualified listener and be the other person’s support, rather than letting one person always bear this responsibility.

If this is true, then this relationship is not so healthy and there is a greater probability that it will not last long.

Of course, if there was an ulterior motive from the beginning, then it is definitely not within this category.

“How’s the barbecue today?”

Watanabe Yu changed the subject, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

“It’s quite delicious, especially the beef cubes. I’ve only eaten that in the store. Maki told me that it’s quite laborious to make it yourself.”

As Yuki Hayakawa spoke, she looked at the images playing on the TV screen.

According to her original plan, she should be on her way home by now.

But plans always change. Her aunt said she would send her back, so she had to wait until the call was over.

“Yes, it’s a little more complicated to process, but it’s not that bad.” Watanabe Yu paused and added, “Thanks to Ryoko’s superb cooking skills.”

I can only say that there is a kind of charm when Ryoko cooks, a charm that makes people feel that they can do it too.

But when you actually get started, you’ll find that I’m really not good at it.jpg
“The girl you described before looks a lot like the person who bullied me in junior high school.” Hayakawa Yuki took a deep breath and continued, “I thought I had forgotten about it, but…

“It is exactly what you said. Time cannot make people feel relieved. What can really make people feel relieved is the additional value brought by time, that is, your experience during this period of time.

“The more you experience, the more you will be relieved of the past.

“But obviously, I can’t let it go so quickly and I’m too sensitive.”

Actually, when she opened her mouth, she didn’t intend to say so much, she only wanted to say the first sentence, but as she started talking, one sentence after another came out.

“It’s okay.” Watanabe Yu took her hand and said, “I’ll take care of everything.”

As he finished speaking, he felt her body tremble slightly beside him.

But he didn’t turn around to look at her, just watched TV silently.

He knew that she didn’t want him to see that expression at this moment.

*
The next day, at ten o’clock in the morning, in the radio room of Hayakawa’s house.

Hayakawa Naoko, who was wearing headphones, had a little more curiosity in her eyes. Compared to yesterday, Yuki’s performance was obviously at a higher level.

Not only in terms of emotional immersion, but also in terms of skills.

But the problem is, if she remembered correctly, she just asked Yuki to have a meal at You’s place yesterday.

Can one’s condition be improved so much just by eating a meal?

As the music progressed, the confusion and curiosity in her eyes became more and more intense.

“How about this time?”

When the accompaniment ended, Yuki Hayakawa, who was immersed in the emotion of the song, opened her eyes and looked at her mother in the studio with anticipation.

As far as her personal experience is concerned, the effect this time is very good.

But sometimes, personal judgment is always subjective, and whether it is good or bad still depends on the opinions of the audience.

After all, music is meant to serve the public.

“I personally think it can be even better, so do you want to try it a few more times?”

Naoko Hayakawa raised her eyebrows, and the anticipation in her eyes grew stronger.

She had a very strong premonition that if she could do it three more times at most, Yuki would be able to reach the peak of her condition.

As for Yuu…

She couldn’t give an evaluation because his performance was as stable as ever.

So good that she couldn’t give any advice at all.

Now You has developed a complete singing logic that belongs to him alone.

Plus the recognisability of his voice.

If he were willing to step in front of the camera now, there is no doubt that with his appearance and unique singing skills, he would become famous in the entire Japanese music scene in the shortest time.

To speak from the perspective of comparative interests, considering Yu’s current level, it really seemed like Yuki was climbing up the social ladder when he partnered with him before.

But now, at the moment, this feeling is much less.

“It’s fine on my end.”

Yuki Hayakawa made an ‘OK’ gesture.

During this period of time, she has been practicing Chinese.

So in this chorus version of the song, “Reverse Direction of Bell”, her accent doesn’t sound like a parrot, but is rather quite authentic – that’s what You said anyway.

In short, she really benefited from this sentence.

“I’m OK here too.”

Watanabe Yuu also nodded.

“Yeah, but you still have to save some energy. After this version is recorded, there will be a Japanese version.”

Naoko Hayakawa reminded the two of them.

It’s good to put all your emotions into it, but today’s task is quite heavy, so you have to save some energy.

“hai~”

The two raised their hands in response.

The melodious accompaniment sounded again.

The two people in the recording studio continued to sing.

The two people’s singing could be heard again from the headphones worn by Naoko Hayakawa.

And perhaps it is true that the old saying goes, no one knows a daughter better than her mother. After singing twice, Yuki was indeed in the best condition and sang the best version.

After this version, Naoko Hayakawa immediately stopped the recording of the Chinese version. If nothing unexpected happens, this version will be the best.

The following recordings seemed to have benefited from this as well. With the Chinese version as a foundation, the Japanese version recording went exceptionally smoothly.

It only took two times to achieve the best results.

Today’s recording has come to an end.

As the last step of audio production was completed, the time came to ten forty in the morning.

This point in time is neither too early nor too late.

It’s a stuck state that’s neither going up nor down.

“So, you really don’t want to stay for dinner?” Looking at Watanabe Yu who had already changed his shoes in front of her, Hayakawa Naoko tried to persuade him to stay.

Yuki went to bother him yesterday.

According to the rule of give and take, she should also invite him to stay for dinner.

But the problem is that he has no intention of staying.

“For today, forget it. My family is still waiting for me to go back and start work.”

Watanabe Yu shook his head and politely declined.

We had hotpot at home for lunch today.

Besides, he had already mentioned this last night, so there was no reason for him to cancel it at the last minute. Moreover, his mother had placed an ‘order’ for him, asking him to take a detour to Chinatown on his way back and buy some hot pot base.

“okay.”

Naoko Hayakawa still nodded.

Now that people have said this, what else can she say?

What’s more, given the current situation, she will most likely eat alone again at noon today.

“Are you going too?”

She lowered her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yuki who had already changed her shoes.

In a sense, she was asking the question even though she already knew the answer.

“OK.”

Yuki Hayakawa nodded.

When her aunt sent her back last night, she told her this, and she agreed very happily.

“Then next time, but let me make it clear that you are not allowed to refuse next time. Yuki has caused you trouble, so you should at least give me a chance to make it up to you, right?”

Naoko Hayakawa waved at the two of them, and then said this half-jokingly and half-seriously.

“Ah.”

This time, Watanabe Yu did not refuse her and agreed.

“Then it’s Yuki.” Hayakawa Naoko changed the subject, “Be polite!”

She said this yesterday.

But when Yuki came back yesterday, she could tell from the expression on her face that her daughter definitely didn’t have any so-called manners and was instead quite comfortable over there.

However, compared to her daughter’s previous sad look, she still hoped that her daughter would be happier.

Ugh.

In short, her feelings on this issue were really complicated.

“Oh.”

Yuki Hayakawa shifted her gaze and responded casually.

“So, shall we go?”

Watanabe Yu looked at Hayakawa Naoko and gave an apologetic smile.

“Go ahead, Yuki, remember to come back early.”

Naoko Hayakawa nodded slightly and took a step back.

But inexplicably, there was something else in her mind.

A long time ago, she had thought about a scene like this, but at that time she never thought that this day would come so soon.

After watching the two leave, she closed the door and returned to the living room.

“Come to think of it, you’re in pretty good shape today!”

After walking for a distance, it was Watanabe Yu who took the initiative to start the conversation.

“Have it?”

Hayakawa Yuki said this, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose.

She naturally knew that she was in good shape today, but she knew it herself and the feeling was completely different from being praised by others.

Not to mention that the person who praised her was You.

“some.”

Watanabe Yu gave a positive answer.

“Then in this way, I can be said to be worthy of my aunt.”

Yuki Hayakawa naturally took Watanabe Yu’s hand.

“what?”

Watanabe Yuu didn’t quite get what she meant for a moment.

“This is a secret between me and my aunt.”

Yuki Hayakawa did not answer, but just stretched out her tone, keeping the audience in suspense for a rare time.

But although she was keeping it a secret, she really had no intention of telling it.

After all, it was really hard to say, “Don’t worry, auntie, I’m You’s partner, and I will definitely help him with music.”

If she really had to tell You about it, she could only say that she wasn’t thick enough to do that.

“A secret between women?”

Yu Watanabe made a little joke.

“Hmm~”

Yuki Hayakawa put on a “yes” look.

“That……”

Just when Watanabe Yu was about to say something, the green light on the crosswalk in front of him suddenly turned red.

then.

Across the relatively empty street, he saw a familiar figure.

The other person’s blonde hair is indeed very recognizable.

But she was busy playing with her phone and didn’t notice him.

“Yu.”

The hand he was holding suddenly tightened.

The moment Hayakawa Yuki saw that face, her expression immediately tensed.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Watanabe Yu stood in front of her calmly.

What a coincidence.

The next moment, the hot blonde raised her head and looked over here in a daze.

She has been playing with her cell phone since she woke up this morning.

She was really unlucky yesterday because it was her father who came to the police station to pick her up, which led to her being slapped again when she got home.

Wait, isn’t that Hayakawa?
When she saw an acquaintance in the crowd, her eyes suddenly became lively.

It just so happened that she didn’t get the money yesterday and now she is extremely poor.

But just before she was thinking about what words to start her speech, she saw Watanabe Yuu next to Hayakawa Yuki.

And two people holding hands.

Gudong.

She swallowed reflexively.

next moment.

She turned around and walked away without a second thought, but before she had taken a few steps, the pain from yesterday and the panic she had felt at the police station overwhelmed her in an instant, and in an instant, walking turned into running.

“Here.”

Watanabe Yu stepped aside and raised his eyebrows.

“People like this are bullies at heart and afraid of the strong.”

He shook his head and murmured this sentence in a low voice.

However, he really didn’t expect that the hot blonde girl he met yesterday was actually the one who bullied Yuki in the past.

If he had known this earlier, he should have acted with a little more emotion.

“…”

Yuki Hayakawa did not respond, but for some reason, she felt a sense of relief.

It was as if the complex emotions that had been accumulating in my heart suddenly dissipated.

The person who she had to hold all her strength to protect herself before didn’t seem to be as scary as she had imagined.

Even their positions were directly reversed.

The one who ran away became the other party.

‘Everything is me.’

Subconsciously, she turned her head and looked at him beside her.

For a moment, her mood was a little turbulent.

She suddenly began to understand Ayana.

This feeling of having someone to rely on, having someone willing to listen to your grievances and be your backer when you are wronged or bullied, does make people feel quite safe.
