Chapter 385: An Old Acquaintance [2K2]

In the end, Watanabe Yuu was unable to return home on time for lunch.

He underestimated both Hayakawa Naoko’s ability to chat and her determination to keep him for lunch. In short, by the time he arrived at the door of his house, it was already one o’clock in the afternoon.

Click.

Pushing open the door under the scorching sun, Watanabe Yu hesitated for a moment, but still said meaningfully, “I’m back.”

What surprised him was that as soon as he finished speaking, there was a slightly surprised response from the living room.

“Welcome home!”

Ryoko’s voice is always so recognizable.

“You didn’t take a lunch break?”

After changing into slippers, Watanabe Yu came to the living room and sat down, looking at the three people on the sofa with some surprise.

At this time in the past, Ryoko would go back to her room and take a nap for half an hour, and Yuki did the same.

As for why he knew this, it was because the lunch break time at Chengnan Private High School was at this time, to be more specific, from one to two o’clock in the afternoon.

During this time period, you can see that all the students in the classrooms are lying down and sleeping.

Of course, there will be a few empty seats. These students either want to lie down for a while and sneak away to the shade of the rooftop, or they are so energetic that they go to the court to play ball.

“Because the breadwinner is not at home, I am worried and can’t sleep.”

Amamiya Ayana blinked and made a little joke.

“So I’m so important?”

Watanabe Yuu was very cooperative and took up the conversation, but his interpretation of “surprise” was a little too obvious.

“Why not?”

The Saint Lady raised her fair chin, and there was a hint of smile in her eyes.

“To be honest, I’m a little flattered.” Watanabe Yuu didn’t pretend to be surprised, but smiled and shook his head, “So, are you guys so gossipy?”

There is no need to guess, the answer is already clearly written on their faces.

“I’m not gossiping, I just want to know what you talked about with your mother, and whether she gave you any trouble.”

Yuki Hayakawa explained in a low voice.

When she knew he wouldn’t come back for dinner, her heart skipped a beat, but with the comfort of Ryoko and Ayana, she gradually calmed down.

Firstly, her mother is not a tiger and will not bite anyone; secondly, her mother promised her that she would not interfere in her love life.

“I testify that Yuki is really worried about you.”

Hamabe Ryoko raised her hand and helped to sing.

Compared to Yuki, her heart has always been in her stomach.

The reason was simple. Her aunt had told her before that she had met Aunt Shangzi and they had a pretty good chat.

“how about you?”

Watanabe Yu nodded as if he understood, and then turned the topic back to Hamabe Ryoko.

“Me? I’m just gossiping.”

Hamabe Ryoko is quite frank.

“me too.”

The Saint Lady also joined in.

“…”

Watanabe Yu was silent for a while.

He didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

“Don’t have that expression. You’re just thinking about gossip because you know nothing will happen.” Hamabe Ryoko coughed lightly and brought the topic back to the topic. “So, how was the chat? Did you get into the plot where I give you X amount of money and then leave my daughter?”

“This kind of plot only appears in the overbearing CEO dramas of earlier years.”

Watanabe Yu rolled his eyes.

Of course, it will also appear in domestic urban dramas.

He added this sentence in his heart.

“so?”

Hamabe Ryoko tilted her head.

“The situation you described will never happen!”

Watanabe Yu gave a definition and no longer gave Ryoko the opportunity to express herself freely, and then began to tell the details of what happened.

To be honest, thinking back on it now, it is indeed as Aunt Shangzi said, this is indeed a fresh life experience.

But he really didn’t understand why the other party asked him to do this.

“Going to a bar as a resident singer?”

After listening to his story, the Saint Lady’s eyes lit up and she suddenly became interested.

Just thinking about that scene made her feel interesting. “Yes.”

Watanabe Yu leaned back on the comfortable sofa and nodded gently.

“The only requirement is to be a little famous?”

There was a hint of doubt in Hamabe Ryoko’s eyes.

She didn’t understand why Hayakawa Naoko asked this.

“yes~”

Watanabe Yu nodded again.

“No other requests?”

“No.”

“Repay the salary?”

“Yes.”

“Can I go with you then?”

“What do you think?”

“Tch, cheapskate.”

Hamabe Ryoko pursed her lips and looked away in an angry manner.

When she heard Watanabe Yu’s answer, she was completely sure that someone was telling the truth without reservation.

It’s not that I don’t believe him, it’s mainly because he has a precedent of bearing difficulties alone before, not telling anyone who asks, and only knowing about it when the problem is solved.

“Miyajima Taki?”

Yuki Hayakawa frowned and recalled carefully.

The name sounded familiar to her, but she couldn’t remember the details.

“She’s a fan of your mom?”

Amemiya Ayana turned her head and looked at Hayakawa Yuki.

“It seems so? I can’t remember clearly.”

Yuki Hayakawa said this uncertainly.

She only vaguely remembered that her mother had mentioned this name a few times before, but she had not mentioned it again in recent years.

Of course, it is also possible that I haven’t mentioned it to her in recent years.

“Ok.”

Hearing this, the Saint Lady stopped hesitating and instead brought up another topic.

“Actually, none of this matters. The key is that you have to negotiate your work and home time.”

She didn’t want this trip to Kamakura, which she had finally decided to take to have a good rest, to turn into a working trip for him, making him invisible all day.

Although judging from the bar’s business hours, the period of time when no one was seen was mostly concentrated in the evening, she wanted to sleep in the same room with him during her trip to Kamakura.

She didn’t want to wake up in the middle of the night and find an empty pillow.

“As for this, you can only know it after you go and talk about it.”

Watanabe Yu spread his hands.

If possible, he would also like to get off work early.

“Oh! I remember now!” Hayakawa Yuki relaxed her frown and joined the conversation, “Before Mom became famous, Grandpa Yuzhi took her to her bar to practice her courage.

“My mother was not very relaxed in front of the audience at that time, so…”

Having said that, she couldn’t help but spread her hands.

Following this line of thought, she could understand her mother’s good intentions, but the problem was that neither she nor You was afraid of the stage.

So, she really doubted whether this could achieve the exercise effect her mother imagined.

“An old acquaintance?”

Amemiya Ayana frowned for some reason.

Her intuition told her that, because they were old friends, the issue of working hours might not be so easy to discuss.

“Yes.”

Yuki Hayakawa nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer again.

“That……”

“Then we can talk about it when we meet. There’s no point in talking so much now. Let’s just follow the original itinerary and leave tomorrow morning.”

Yu Watanabe interrupted the Saint Lady’s speech.

He felt that there was no need to worry about this or that. He just had to fight back when the enemy came. Besides, since they were old acquaintances, even if he could take extra care of them, at least he would not make things difficult for them out of pure malice.

For him, as long as it is not a malicious challenge, that is enough.
