MTL - Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home-Chapter 599 Life Discussion·Second Part

  Chapter 599 Life Discussion·Second Part

  Knock knock~

   "Yinglili, are you inside? I'm coming in."

  Kato Yusuke knocked on the door twice, waited for a while, then opened the door and walked into the room.

   It was dark as far as the eye could see.

   There was no one in the quiet room, only a pair of ladylike white gloves were lying on the bed.

   "..."

  He looked around first, then stepped forward.

   Pushing open the door to the balcony, the winter night wind blows head-on.

  It was snowing, but the moonlight was soft and transparent, as if it had been waiting for a long time to pour in.

  The girl was standing quietly in front of the fence, looking up at the moon like thin ice, wondering what she was thinking.

   Under the moonlight, the blond hair hangs listlessly, but it is still delicate and elegant.

  She embraced her arms lightly, her skin glowed with a light and smooth feeling in the darkness of the night, her fair skin was slightly rosy, and her small figure looked a little thin.

  The light snow that lasted from morning to evening was not deep, but traces of it could still be seen on the grass and fences.

  A thin layer of silver-white snow, reflecting the light of moonlight and street lamps.

  Based on the current time, the surrounding area is still quite bright.

  The orange lights inside the mansion reflect the white snow, and it even looks so warm.

   Still, the snow will melt and disappear if you touch it a little.

"Feel sorry…"

  The girl whispered: "Give me a little more time, just a little bit, I'll go back to everyone right away..."

   Kato Yusuke turned his head to look at her, and stuffed a can of hot black tea from downstairs into that slightly frozen little hand.

   "Don't be so anxious, it doesn't matter if you take your time."

   He said as he took off his coat and put it on his body.

  The girl's shoulders trembled slightly, but she didn't say anything.

  He didn't care about it, he just stood quietly and enjoyed the night view.

   The two fell silent.

  In the light snow.

  The mountain ridge is hidden in the depths of the night, only revealing a slightly blurred outline, making it hard to see clearly.

  The lights of Wanjia are brilliant, spread on the earth when the night falls, like a galaxy falling from the sky.

   It is said that there is a saying in the world that snow absorbs sound.

  Kato Yusuke doesn't think so.

   But the two of them are indeed silent at the moment, just listening to each other's breathing, staring at the quiet night.

   "..."

  Ying Lili held the canned black tea in both hands, rolled it gently to keep warm, and then shook her head slowly.

   "That way... will cause trouble for Mom and Dad. There are a lot of guests today, and I can't let them lose face."

   "Then you can take it as a favor to me, I just want to get some fresh air outside."

   "Both of us disappeared from the banquet, so it would be more problematic..."

   "Uncle Leonard and Aunt Sayuri are the protagonists tonight, no one will care about the two high school students."

   "However, isn't this easy to cause misunderstanding..."

  The person involved muttered, causing Kato Yusuke to pause.

  He turned his face and stretched out a hand, and flicked the opponent's forehead with a "boom~" with his fingers.

"it hurts!"

  Ying Lili immediately let out a scream, and raised her hand to cover her forehead.

   "What silly things are you talking about? It's just that a pair of brothers and sisters are missing. What can others misunderstand?" Kato Yusuke said lightly, as if feeling quite speechless.

   "What! You are too much, and I didn't say anything, why are you knocking people?"

  Ying Lili frowned unhappily, and said unhappily: "Besides, where are you thinking?"

   Kato Yusuke was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyes away.

   "...In short, since you are still in the mood to joke, the situation shouldn't be that serious, right? Then I'll go first, it's cold outside, remember not to stay too long."

  He turned around as he spoke, and was about to return to the room, but...

"Wait a moment!"

  A hand suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

  Yusuke Kato was forced to stop and looked back.

  The long, smooth golden hair poured down, revealing a fair and small rosy face, and a pair of crystal-clear eyes were looking at him.

   "...Anyway, you are free now, I want to talk about life, you stay with me..."

  Warm white breath leaked from the soft lips like cherry blossoms, floating in the air.

   "Life Counseling...?"

   Kato Yusuke murmured, his eyes unconsciously fixed on those lips.

  The picture not long ago suddenly came to mind, and even the lips seemed to still have some kind of touch...

  Thinking of this, he suddenly felt startled, and then immediately looked away, a throbbing suddenly surged in his originally calm heart, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

   Seeing his reaction like this.

  Ying Lili was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to recall the same thing, her fair face turned red instantly, and then punched him **** the back, saying incoherently:

"You, you, you, you, where do you think? I'm not talking about that! That's ... simple ... just want to talk to you ..."

  The atmosphere became slightly awkward.

   Kato Yusuke paused for a moment, moved his lips and said, "...Okay, I have no objections, so let's go in and talk about it."

  The girl nodded lightly, hummed in a low voice, then lowered her head and walked quickly into the room.

  The latter followed slowly, and closed the door behind him, keeping the cold air out.

  When he turned his head, the scene in front of him made him freeze in place.

   “…why are you sitting on the bed?”

   "Why? Can't I sit?"

   "No, the question is how do we talk when you are like this?"

   "..."

  Ying Lili pursed her lips and looked at him, then patted the empty seat next to her, "Just sit here."

   "..."

   Kato Yusuke rubbed his temples, not really wanting to cooperate with her.

   After all, he is a boy sitting on a girl's boudoir bed, no matter how you think about it, it is a very inappropriate behavior.

  Especially after what happened some time ago, he didn't want to pamper himself very much.

  As if seeing the resistance in his heart, Ying Lili had a flash of hesitation on her face, then jumped off the bed and sat on the ground with her skirt pressed down.

   "You are so troublesome..."

  The girl patted the place next to her again, and said, "Here, if you are sitting on the ground, you will be fine, right?"

  ‘Can’t you just sit on a chair? '

  Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but sighed, and then walked up to sit beside her.

  The air conditioner in the room is fully turned on, and the warmth is continuously transmitted to the skin through the clothes, which is very warm.

  Because the lights were not turned on, the room was still dark.

  The two sitting on the ground hid in the night, only a small piece of moonlight illuminated their position, proving that there were people here.

  Ying Lili was the first to speak: "...you saw it...yesterday."

   This question was a bit thoughtless, but Kato Yusuke knew exactly what she was referring to, so he nodded to express his acquiescence.

   "Is that so..."

  The girl stared at her toes that were close together, and asked, "You didn't sign up for the club, why were you there then?"

   "Miss Kosaka asked me to talk about some things. When we came out, we happened to see you and An Yi. Because I was a little concerned, I followed you and watched."

  Yusuke Kato briefly explained the ins and outs.

  As soon as the words were finished, Ying Lili tapped his shoulder angrily, and complained: "Speak up about this kind of thing earlier! It's really embarrassing for you to see my expression like that..."

   Kato Yusuke touched his nose, smiled slightly and said:

   "I didn't mean to hide it deliberately, but you couldn't have a good conversation when you cried like that. This is force majeure."

   "Stupid...I obviously don't want to be seen by you..."

   "Don't worry, just occasionally, you can also rely on my elder brother."

   This was originally a joke to ease the atmosphere, but the other party quieted down for some reason, and only responded in a low voice after a while.

   "Then...let me use it..."

   "Huh? What are you talking about..."

  Before Kato Yusuke finished speaking, there was a light weight on his shoulders, making him swallow the rest of the words.

  The fragrance of the shampoo is mixed with a touch of deodorant, like a lily blooming quietly in the dark, ethereal.

   "...Hey, can I start my life consultation?" the girl asked.

   "Well, if you are ready, my side is ok anytime." The boy replied.

  The girl hummed, staring at the darkness in front of her eyes, and slowly said:

   "... On this winter COMI, that girl...Hashima Chuhai's book is a big seller."

"Ok."

   "Have you seen the notebook she drew?"

"not yet."

   "As a painter, what is your impression of her?"

   “Definitely talented and studious.”

   "Then...do you think she is very powerful?"

  Ying Lili said, with a trace of tension in her voice: "Even, do you think she is more powerful than me...?"

   Kato Yusuke turned his face thoughtfully.

  The girl was lowering her head at the moment, making it difficult for him to see the expression on that face, only the slender eyelashes trembling slightly.

  Even through the clothes, you can clearly feel that the body is slightly tense, as if waiting for some kind of judgment.

  He thought for a while, and then gave an answer in a deep voice.

   "Although I don't know why you ask that, but I never thought about it."

  Hearing this, Ying Lili raised her head abruptly.

  The pure blue eyes suddenly glowed with brilliance, and at the same time, there was a bit of anxiety and expectation, and he signaled him to continue with his eyes.

  Because that appearance was so endearing, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but put a hand on top of her head, gently stroking her silky and smooth hair.

   "No matter what, you will always be the most powerful painter who introduced me to the world in my heart. This answer will never change, and you can confirm it to me countless times."

  His voice is very gentle, but full of calmness, which makes people unconsciously want to be convinced.

  Ying Lili's eyes swayed slightly, and there were dots of light shining in them, reflecting his gentle and jade-like outline.

   Face the answer he gives.

  The girl first snorted a little proudly, then lowered her head sadly.

   "But, I have already lost to others... completely, completely lost..."

  Her voice was full of frustration, but her tone was gentler and calmer than ever.

   "After actually reading that book, I understand this..."

  Yusuke Kato withdrew his hand and asked, "Are you talking about the book of "Little Rhapsody"?"

  Ying Lili nodded affirmatively, clutching the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, and continued talking like a memory.

   “Honestly, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone do something like that with Little Rhapsody, and it really freaked me out.”

  Because she didn't mean to ask someone to talk to her, Kato Yusuke just hummed to show that she was listening.

  "Generally speaking, when everyone draws the fanfic of "Little Rhapsody", they usually use daily jokes and eroticism as the subject matter. It's really thanks to her that she can come up with such a long original plot."

"Ok."

   "It's not just the plot, the girl also put a lot of effort into the details. Although the first half was still invisible, as soon as it entered the second half, it all exploded in one breath."

"Ok."

   "Whether it is the characters or the background, they are all densely drawn with pencils, which is completely different from the previous pages. Although there are traces of rush work, the degree of completion is not inferior to the first half."

"Ok."

   "It's better to say that she drew more and more thinner in the second half. Looking at her like that, even if you count the time spent in the first half, the second half of the pencil draft is definitely more labor-intensive."

"Ok."

  “Those dazzling pencil lines make the outlines of the characters vivid and three-dimensional on the paper, full of enthusiasm. There is also the part of the story. After advancing to the second half, the tension of the plot is terribly high.”

"Ok."

   "Especially the last five pages are particularly exaggerated. The level of effort is completely out of balance with the first half. The painter must be working so hard that he can't even control himself."

"Ok."

   "It's clearly a book that doesn't even have a cover painted, but the content is so fully described. Regardless of whether this approach is good or bad for the work, it can't gain a foothold in terms of products!"

"Ok."

   "Obviously she only drew what she wanted to draw, and put aside all the work that should be done on the surface. It should be said that when the girl was creating this book, she probably didn't think about anything..."

"Ok."

  Ying Lili stopped at this point, inhaled and exhaled as if adjusting her breath, and then continued.

  “…Originally, according to her willful approach, no matter how good the book is, it usually won’t be sold.”

"Ok."

  "After all, if you want to attract customers' attention, you have to start from the cover, including the overall packaging of the book. She is still far behind in this regard."

"Ok."

   "However, if she has a partner who knows how to do the book well and can give good advice..."

  The girl said with some self-mockery: "For someone like me, she will probably be overtaken by her in no time...Aha...Ahaha..."

   Unable to maintain a nonchalant attitude, her slender voice began to tremble uncontrollably, gradually approaching the verge of losing control.

   "..."

   Kato Yusuke turned his head slightly heavily.

  Unknowingly, that delicate and perfect little face was overflowing with tears.

  …
