"Uh——" I huh for a long time, seeing that the other party was waiting seriously and didn't seem to give me a step down, so I replied resignedly, "The definition of nurturing is a relationship based on economic transactions...I really think that I am I can't afford that price at all... Let's not talk about this embarrassing topic! By the way, I received the birthday gift you Tuo Zheye handed over last time, and I only have one question... Isn't it too expensive?"

[I said it was a gift in return, so don’t feel pressured, it’s of equal value. 】

"...Hey? Is that so?" I suddenly realized, yes... The omamori I got from Natsume is definitely the real thing... It's hard to get it in the first place!Thinking about it this way, I don't need to have any psychological pressure!I suddenly felt relieved of the burden in my heart, and asked happily, "Then what do you want?" I still want a gift in return, after all, it is polite...

Akashi's tone was indifferent: 【Love it. 】

"..." I was so frightened by the sudden thunder that I fell off the bed, and there was only one shout in my head——Kurosaki Ruolai, you bastard! ! !

"Cough, cough, cough—" I got up tremblingly, a little guilty, but felt that I couldn't lose my momentum, so I coughed lightly, and answered, "Okay! Just wait!"

【……Hey? 】

This time it was Akashi's turn to be stunned, but I wouldn't give him a chance to react, so I hung up the phone decisively.

Well, if one Strawberry Bear is not enough, just three!I bought all the sizes and sent them over!

"Iori, who did you call just now?" Mom came out of the shower, saw that I was still lying on the bed, came over and slapped my stomach, "Don't lie down and look at your phone like this, it's bad for your eyesight!"

"Wow——" I sat up clutching my stomach, and put the phone aside, "It was Akashi's call just now..."

"...Huh?" Mom's eyes became sharp all of a sudden, "I remember what you said... are you two alright?"

"No, no." I waved my hand in denial, "Akashi called to apologize for the things you saw on the forum before."

"Hey - what a gentleman's young master. It's not his problem at all and he's been implicated..." Mom sat down, "And then? Why did you reply so impolitely, 'Okay, you wait' ? It looks like a fight!"

"...Uh——" I didn't want to give a reason at all, and said firmly, "You can leave this mother alone!"

After perfunctory Mommy, I called Kurosaki again: "Jolai——! I don't love you anymore!"

【……cough. 】

"...Atobe, I'm sorry, I'm talking nonsense." I grabbed the pillow in shame and buried my face in it, and suddenly I had the illusion that I was the old king next door, "Then, that... Is Ruolai there?"

[Jolai, Hinata is calling. 】

[Okay, wait a minute—] A voice came from far and near, and finally answered the phone, [Hello?Iori? 】

At this moment, I no longer had the momentum I had at the beginning: "Jolai—why are you telling Akashi about that?!"

Kurosaki's tone was flat: [I just chatted about life with a friend who also lacks love. 】

"...I'm sorry! I was talking too fast! I shouldn't have said that you guys lack love!" Did I hit something? !You two can't really lack love! ?

[No, it is indeed missing.So what you said at the time really hit the spot. 】

"...I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Can I apologize on my head in my heart?!"

[No, this is the truth, I don't mean to blame you, I can only say that you are unexpectedly sharp.In fact, in some respects, Akashi and my family environment are quite similar. 】

My attention was suddenly diverted by this rare gossip: "Hey? Are your parents divorced too?"

[No, his mother died when he was young, and his father never remarried...but his father followed the elite model of setback education and took his children's achievements for granted.It's better to say that if you are not the first, you will be questioned by your father. 】

"Oh—I feel like I understand where Akashi's excessive desire to win comes from...it's not easy." This is the first time I know this, I nodded, and stopped immediately when I thought that the other party couldn't see it "Then the environment is very similar... Could it be that your father is also Jolai!?"

[No, my own father is rather stupid. I seriously doubt that if my uncle hadn't been obsessed with being a director, he wouldn't be qualified to inherit the family business.However, my mother, like Akashi's father, pursued this kind of education method, and since my parents divorced, they have intensified their discipline on me, in order to make my inheritance rights stable and even evade my father. 】

"Ah...it's like this." It's also a bad debt...but this is the first time that Kurosaki told me about her family, and I was a little more patient than usual, "But now your mother doesn't care about you right?"

【Um.Because I resisted. 】

"...Huh? Resistance?"

[Yes, unlike Akashi's character of a good boy who fully responds to parents' expectations, I will study hard but it's the opposite. 】

……Why?Good boy?Akashi? !Although there seems to be no problem with what I said... I laughed a few times, focusing on Herosaki's resistance: "And then! Did you succeed in your resistance?"

[No, my example tells us that before you don’t have enough strength to be independent, don’t want to fight against adults. It’s not good, it will only make you realize how naive, stupid and weak you are, and doubt yourself and this world. 】

"..." Kurosaki! ! !

[But I'm better. When I doubted myself, I met the light in my life. 】

I was caught off guard by a mouthful of dog food, but at the same time, I was happy for my friend, and said with a smile, "Hey——you mean Atobu! This is a bit gross..."

【He's my passion, the fire of my desire, my sin, my soul... Ah, it's a string of words, cough, in short, at that moment, I realized for the first time that there is still such a thing in this world. Son of man exists. 】

"Hey, Jolai, it's been a while..."

Kurosaki continued to shout with an extremely serious and somewhat exaggerated aria: 【Myprecious!】

"..." My face became serious, "Atobe is right next to you?"

【……Um. 】

"Okay... I'll talk to you in detail when I get back to China." I hung up the phone helplessly.

But Kurosaki did give good information...so I was right to give Strawberry Bear!Um!Suddenly, I am full of confidence in my choice!

"Wait! It turned out that nothing was explained! Is this why you became a second-five boy?!"

We stayed in the United States for about 5 days. April 4st was Uncle Huadao's birthday, and we also returned to China after the birthday celebration.

And after returning to China... I also... once again fell into the hell of drafting before the start of school.I didn't even have time to give out the gifts I bought, and I dragged my assistants to rush to draft.

"Miss Iori!"

"What's the matter!" I continued to immerse myself in drawing and writing.

Inspired by me, my assistant also shouted: "These ten pages are ready! And! A girl from another school confessed to the chairman this morning!"

I didn't raise my head, and still roared: "That's it! Congratulations to Skylark!"

The assistant didn't end the topic: "But that girl from another school called Chairman Claude..."

"..." I raised my head abruptly, "What do Yun and Skylark say?"

"The chairman ignored her and just said that people from other schools are prohibited from entering the school."

"Huh—" I breathed a sigh of relief, if I hadn't been grounded by Hibari...I would have gone to Dogeza to apologize!

"Thank you for your hard work! Remember to tell Cao Bi, pay special attention to suspicious girls during this time! Protect the chairman!"

"Yes—" my blacked-out assistant responded, and was a little puzzled, "That...why?"

"You don't understand." I said with a deep face, "Those people don't love Skylark but Claude at all! How can we make Skylark a substitute!"

"...Yes, it makes sense!" The assistant nodded solemnly, "I will tell Mr. Kusakabe!"

"Well! I'll leave it to you!" It's great that Skylark's subordinates are as innocent and easy to deceive as Skylark on this point!

While I was busy rushing to draft...a new job came.

On my work account, the new email reminder of Bubashang's agent is very eye-catching.

[An Yi Xiangzi: Teacher IORI!Shang's new song is a story about a demon and two angels. The story already exists. Could you please draw a character design?Shooting MV for styling.The price is up to you. 】

This is really a novel commission... I thought about it, and it is not difficult to draw a personal design. Thanks to the blessing of Po Shang, the sales and attention of my "No Tomb" are quite high, so I have to accept this one in order to reciprocate.

I immediately replied: [Yes!Send me the story content and character design requirements, and if possible, send me the lyrics as well.In terms of personal design, it is 60 yuan per person, and it can be completed within two weeks. What do you think?Can you accept it? 】

Brothers have to settle accounts clearly!

The other party agreed immediately, and sent all the materials along with it.

After I finished the manuscript at hand, I went to read it. This is... a love triangle with a lily flavor.Never thought that Bupo still has this hobby...

This is the story of Angel [-] falling in love with the devil, and Angel [-], the best friend, worried about Angel [-], so he killed the devil and blackened himself.All in all...it's quite touching.Interesting stories and I feel comfortable drawing characters, Buposhang is still a good partner, I recognize his talent.

In this way, under the accumulation of manuscripts, until the first day of school, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to chat.All private calls are forwarded to voicemail except for parents’ calls, and all gift purchases are sent by courier except for those who don’t know the address. The only time I go to other places is to go to Echizen’s house with evil intentions and ask sister Nanako how she treats my uncle Xiaofeng. Watch, and ask when the other person will be single again.

On the first day of school on the 8th, I ushered in the first day of my sophomore career in the misery where the character set hadn’t been moved yet, and half of this month’s manuscript was still unfinished.

The weather on this day is still very bad, there is a typhoon.Fortunately, the home is not far from the school.Considering the traffic jam, I declined my mother's suggestion to drive me to school, and went out in the wind and rain.

"Ah——is the first day of the second year of high school so bad..." I squinted my eyes and walked forward with my umbrella in my hand. When I walked by the river, I discovered a strange scene.

Hey... wait... wait, let me rub my eyes first... that person... that should be a person! ?Did that person go to heaven? !Relying on a transparent umbrella to save a sparrow? !

Why did the wind and rain stop after saving the sparrow, and the sky began to clear up? !Who is this? !And what kind of sparrow is that? !

This is an alien hiding among ordinary people! ?

I was dumbfounded and stood there holding the umbrella, watching the young boy who rescued the birds smile tenderly at the sparrow, let the sparrow fly, and then turned his head to meet my gaze.

The young man was taken aback.

"Uh——" I clenched the handle of the umbrella with both hands, stiffened my body, gave it a thumbs up with a little trembling, and praised, "D-good job! Wai...ah no, boy!"

After I finished speaking, I ran away quickly without looking back. The umbrella in my hand fell and I didn't have time to pick it up.

mom, Mom, Mom!Help!I discovered that the alien was discovered by an alien!

The author has something to say:

Akashi is true... Although the second personality said "The guy who violates my wishes, even if it is a parent, should not be easily forgiven."-But his mother was gentle and kind to him and died long ago, and his father I don’t care about everything, but my son must be an elite and must be the first in the paradigm... His second personality is in the final analysis the pressure from his father, and he forced himself... Sigh.Family really has a big impact on children (sigh)

Although Kurosaki and Akashi have known each other for a long time, they are not familiar with each other. Although their experiences are somewhat similar, they are not very used to each other.

Kurosaki: Heh, listen to Dad...

Akashi: Heh, thankless...

The two have the same opinion on Atobe (hey)——probably: Oh, that silly white sweet with good strength
