MTL - Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home-Chapter 600 night talk

  Chapter 600 Night talk

  Looking at Eirika who cried without warning, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

  The girl who is always straight to the point of being stubborn, always full of arrogance, and never admit defeat to anything, showed her lack of self-confidence for the first time.

   It was the first time Kato Yusuke saw each other like this.

  He silently took out a handkerchief and handed it to the other party.

   "Thanks... woo..."

  Ying Lili lowered her head and wiped her tears, as if she didn't want him to see her expression at the moment.

   "Hey, Yusuke, I'm so scared..."

  The girl whimpered and said:

   "Obviously before the winter COMI started, I encouraged that girl to some degree.

  Tell her that everyone is improving little by little, and tell her not to care about the grades. Now it seems that it is arrogant and unreasonable...! "

   "Is that so..."

   Kato Yusuke half-closed his eyes, and agreed softly without emotion.

   "Just like me...just like me... how can I give advice to others. That girl's creative ability is simply ridiculous, and sooner or later she will surpass me..."

  Ying Lili bit her lips tightly, squeezed out a voice from her throat and said:

"Even... when she was going to give me her own book, such a precious commemorative book, I had a vicious thought that a creator should never have... I almost tore that book apart... "

   When it came to the end, the emotions that I had been holding on to suddenly collapsed, and my breathing became messy and rapid.

  “…I embarrass things, I embarrass myself…”

  The girl broke down in tears and said: "And Lunye... Lunye...he also asked me to apologize to that girl, won't it be too bullying?"

  Two lines of tears flowed down the beautiful face, pattered down, and wet the evening dress.

  Intermittent crying echoed in the quiet room, making the air even heavier.

   "Yingli pear..."

   Kato Yusuke looked at her pale complexion, opened his lips a little heavily, and tried to say some comforting words, but felt speechless.

  Unless the core issue is involved, he doesn't know where to start.

   What's more, is this something he can do at will?

  He couldn't help asking his heart like this.

   Not to mention that Ying Lili's words did not mean to ask him for help.

  In the final analysis, this is more a contradiction between the other party and the childhood sweetheart who grew up together.

  Is he, an outsider, really qualified to meddle in other people's problems?

   Kato Yusuke hesitated for a while.

  Ying Lili is still continuing to talk about herself.

   "Obviously "Little Rhapsody" was my birthday present to him when I was in the third grade of elementary school, but he easily promoted it to others and chatted so enthusiastically with others, but I contributed to all of these, didn't I...!"

  When she said this, her voice rose instantly due to excitement.

   "If I hadn't promoted this work to him at that time, he would not have been exposed to "Little Rhapsody", nor would he have given birth to the genius of Pashima. But now—"

  The girl said word by word: "He wants to use "Little Rhapsody" to hit me...Why, he bullies others like this...!"

"I see…"

  Yusuke Kato unconsciously held his breath, feeling that he had faintly touched a corner of the core of the problem. He didn't make meaningless interruptions, just wait for the next one.

  The other party did not disappoint him either.

  As if determined to open her heart, the girl confided to him a certain past that she had never mentioned to anyone.

  From how I became friends with An Yilun back then,

  Seeing how they were ridiculed and bullied by their classmates because of their otaku status,

   Then why did he pretend to be out of the house, and An Yilun was unwilling to cooperate with her, which finally led to the parting of the two parties.

  The person involved hugged his knees with his hands and said in a trembling voice:

   "Forced to break up with best friend, not even able to talk in school, and had to ignore his existence...

  I was really sad, sad, and in pain. I don’t know how many times I cried.

  I have already endured such cruel punishment, why should I be treated like this by him and suffer deeper retribution! "

  Ying Lili picked up her handkerchief as she spoke, wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and kept hiccupping.

  “I have been working so hard to paint since I was a child, so that one day I can get his approval and impress those guys who laughed at us.

  In the end, he said that I couldn't draw well... No, he didn't say it directly, but he clearly felt that others were better than me.

  I suddenly felt that everything I did was wishful thinking, like a fool, really stupid! "

  The girl's soft voice is full of depression and remorse, and there is also loneliness and hatred hidden in her eyes.

   "..."

   Kato Yusuke looked at the other party, and the face in his eyes made him feel a little uncomfortable.

  The long-standing doubts are suddenly cleared at this moment.

  He finally understood the past of the two, as well as the intricate entanglement.

  Although judging from the current point of view, it was at best a group of children arguing.

  However, for the parties concerned, as elementary school students, they must not be able to be as mature as they are now, so they let the thorn in the bottom of their hearts remain until now.

   Today, that has become something of a chronic disease. Once slightly touched, it hurts into the bone marrow.

  Honestly.

   It’s not about who is right and who is wrong in this matter. It is nothing more than that the two people’s ideas have diverged under the pressure of the outside world.

  However, he didn't want to worry so much.

   Kato Yusuke thought so.

  Although he is cold and indifferent in nature, he only attaches great importance to the people around him.

  Moral concepts have never been the primary factor in his consideration of things.

  He only cares about those he wants to care about, and protects those he wants to protect.

   Just like others once gave him salvation, he also wants to be their dependence one day, that's all.

   "Yingli pear..."

  He slowly raised one hand, placed it on top of the other person's head, and stroked it gently as if comforting.

   "It's okay, it's okay, just like I said before, you will always be the most powerful painter in my heart. You are just a little confused now, but it will pass soon."

"I can not do it-!"

  Ying Lili shook her head resolutely, hugged her arms with both hands, her fingers sank deep into the skin, until they turned slightly white.

  “I have done my best, no matter when others can see it or not, I am working hard!”

  She almost yelled: "But—! I still have no way to break through, the next step is already the field of talent, but I have already imprisoned my soul..."

  The unwilling voice echoed in the room, as if even the air was vibrating.

   After a brief silence.

   "So didn't I say..."

   Kato Yusuke sighed helplessly, rubbed her little head, and said, "You can also rely on me once in a while."

"……rely on you?"

  Ying Lili raised her head slowly, and looked back at him with a dazed look, her pretty face wrinkled into a ball from crying.

   "Isn't it right? Or, do you think it would be embarrassing to let your former disciples guide you?"

   "Guide to..."

"Ok."

   Kato Yusuke nodded, and said in a gentle tone:

   "Like you once got me started.

  As long as you are willing, I will try my best to teach you everything I understand, so that you will not only become the number one in my heart, but also the number one in everyone's heart. "

  As if frightened by his speech, no one in the room spoke for a while.

  Ying Lili stared at him blankly, letting tears flow down her cheeks.

   Kato Yusuke stretched out his hand and gently wiped away his tears.

   "All in all, whether you want to draw easily in the future, or want to seek a breakthrough..."

  He looked directly into the other person's eyes, there was no falsehood in those dark eyes, and said in a gentle voice: "As long as you need, I will be there anytime, I promise."

   "Yusuke..."

  Ying Lili sucked her nose several times and murmured in a low voice.

   What caught my eye was the big and round full moon that seemed to be hanging high in the night sky, quietly waiting for her, quiet and bright.

  Her lips were pursed, but she frowned deliberately, and muttered in a low voice: "What... you... are really boring."

"what?"

  "Generally speaking, to heal a girl's heart, shouldn't you hug each other tenderly and say some sweet words like "don't worry, I will protect you"! "

  Ying Lili squinted her eyes and said: "In the end, you forced me to stand up. There is no such prince in the world!"

   Kato Yusuke suddenly showed a dumbfounded expression.

"but-"

  The girl sniffed her nose hard, trying to force a smile, which seemed a little funny.

  She looked at him with wet pupils, then nodded heavily, "I will work hard!"

   After finishing speaking, he threw himself into his arms.

   Kato Yusuke's body couldn't help but froze, only feeling that he was surrounded by a warm and soft thing.

  The other party hugged his neck hard, buried his head in his shoulder, and let out a weak sob that was deliberately suppressed.

  His heart couldn't help softening, and then he also stretched out his arms to hug this small body, and gently patted the other person's back with one hand.

   "It's hard work that you have persisted for so long. You have worked very hard. It is really amazing."

  The sobs lingering in his ears suddenly stopped.

   After a few seconds, the crying gradually became louder, and finally turned into howling.

  A grievance that had been held back for a long time surged up and accumulated in Ying Lili's chest, and finally turned into a sound, pouring out like a flood that opened the gate.

   For a while, both of them just maintained this posture, motionless.

  ◇

finally-

  The scene where the prince healed the princess' heart did not last forever.

  「I’m going to change clothes next, you go out first!」

   With such a reason, Kato Yusuke was kicked out of the room by the owner.

  Unknowingly, the banquet has ended.

  The maids in long skirts are neatly cleaning up the mess.

  Glanced at the time, it was already ten forty-five in the evening.

   Almost two hours have passed since the two of them left the banquet hall.

   I don't know why.

   Even after such a long time, no one came to the room to call them.

  Holding some doubts, Kato Yusuke came to the living room on the first floor.

  The red and white song will be played on the TV.

  Sayuri Sawamura is sitting alone on the sofa watching the show, but Leonard Spencer is nowhere to be seen.

  Seeing him coming, the other party smiled and waved, "Kato-kun, come and sit here."

   "Aunt Sayuri."

  Yusuke Kato paced over and stopped beside the sofa, "Are you here alone? Where is Mr. Leonard?"

   "Hey, there is a beautiful big sister in front of me, but Leonard is the one who asked first? I'm going to be angry~~"

   "Are you watching the Red and White Song Concert?"

   "Ah~! Ignore my question now, I will be sad~~"

  Sayuri Sawamura lifted up the sleeves of her kimono as she spoke, pretending to cover her face and weep.

   Kato Yusuke looked at the monster in front of him, couldn't help raising his hand to press his temple, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

   "... Seriously, for the sake of visiting your daughter just now, can you spare me temporarily?"

  Sayuri Sawamura raised her eyes slightly from her loose sleeves, with a shrewd gleam in her pupils, and asked:

   "Speaking of which, the two of you have been upstairs for a long time~ You shouldn't have hurt Ying Lili... right?"

   "It's not going to be what you think anyway."

  Yusuke Kato replied with a pair of dead fish eyes: "We just chatted about some normal topics. If you are worried, you can confirm with Eriri later."

   "That's it~~"

  Sayuri Sawamura rested her face lightly with one hand, and sighed:

   "Obviously, Mom, I was still worrying about when to interrupt you, and I was afraid of seeing some scenes that I shouldn't see, so I have been wandering outside the door for a long time."

  After a brief silence.

   "Can I say a word...?"

   "What do you say~?"

  Kato Yusuke opened his mouth, "Basically, even if you opened the door and came in, there would be no problem. Besides... people usually call this behavior listening to the corner."

   "~?"

  Sayuri Sawamura blinked lightly, subtly did not answer, and asked instead: "Well, compared to this, what about Eriri?"

  Her voice just fell...

"-Mother."

  Accompanied by a clear voice, brisk footsteps came from upstairs.

  The two followed the sound and looked at the same time.

  On the retro carved wooden stairs, a bunch of red skirts were kicked forward, appearing suddenly like a jungle deer.

  Ying Lili was holding on to the armrest, her two thin white legs quickly staggered, and she came walking like dancing.

  When they were looking at her, she was also looking at them.

   Or rather, looking at someone standing beside her mother.

  The young man was still wearing the thin and soft white village shirt at the banquet, supported by his figure, which brought out his upright character.

   It's like a prosperous family that has declined for several generations, but can still support the noble son from the wealthy family.

  The scholarly foundation is still there, and the stubbornness is full of laziness.

  Ying Lili's pace slowed down a little, and then quickened her pace to come to the two of them.

   didn’t even look at him, and asked Sayuri Sawamura directly, “What are you doing here? Where is Dad?”

  The voice returned to its usual vitality, and there was no sign of frustration.

  Sayuri Sawamura turned her head slightly, her eyes turned around her face inadvertently, and paused for a moment on the slightly red eye sockets that were concealed.

   "Your father and the Minister of Foreign Affairs are chatting in the study. Do you have anything to do with him?"

  …
