In this life, we will meet again

Chapter 26 26.Suddenly, things about Baiyuan Immortal Tree became much better

The girl laughed so hard that she picked up the toothpick on the table and pierced the tender tomato into her mouth. She stared at the Baiyuan Fairy Tree with a smile on her face.

"Do boys nowadays like to act cool like this?"

Baiyuan Xianshu knew that the credibility of saying this at this age was very low, so it was no wonder that she thought she was being cool.

"Have you two learned basic music theory, musical form, and acoustics?" He smiled as usual.

"Of course." Kirishima Reina's toothpick slipped across her lips, "For those who study music, this is the basic."

Baiyuan Immortal Tree nodded and said with a smile: "I will write a song in a few days and ask you two to sing it then."

"You can write songs?" Kirishima Reina asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Baiyuan Immortal Tree pinched the distance between his fingers and said: "A little bit, barely enough."

"Huh—"

Rena Kirishima raised her eyebrows slightly provocatively, and said with a smile,
"That's fine. As long as you can write well and listen well, then I'll tell Glass that I trust you."

"It's a word."

"Atami girls never lie."

The two looked at each other and smiled slightly.

"But if it's too unpleasant, I won't hesitate to criticize you. Don't blame me for what I said was unpleasant." Kirishima Reina clasped her hands in an exaggerated gesture and prayed half-jokingly.

"If it sounds bad, I should say it sounds good, and then find a place where no one is and throw away the music score I wrote."

"Good friends should talk to each other face to face." Kirishima Reina shook her legs and looked at Kirishima Glass and said, "But don't have too high hopes. I know that the higher you praise, the worse you will fall."

"It's better not to think too much now. You are lucky to be at this level now." Baiyuan Immortal Tree concluded in a brisk tone.

Kirishima Rena raised her head, and Bai Yuan Senshu was nodding along with the rhythm of Xiaopai.

Feeling itchy on her back, her heart beating a beat faster than usual, and all the heat concentrated on her face, Kirishima Rena quickly turned her face away.

Somehow, I feel so shy.

After a while, Kurosawa came back.

"Big one?" Baiyuan Immortal Tree said half-jokingly.

Kurosawa's attitude was very frivolous. He ignored him and just leaned on his waist with one hand and said, "Sing for a while and then go back."

"Okay, ah, it's past five o'clock!" Kirishima Reina looked at her watch, with bad words written all over her face.

"I'll take you back." Kurosawa said calmly.

"Oh oh oh~!!" Kirishima Rena suddenly yelled, jumped twice like a little white sheep, came to Kurosawa Yaoai and hugged her and said, "Thank you, Kurosawa-san."

Kurosawa Yaai was so frightened by the sudden embrace that she could barely squeeze out a voice from her vocal cords: "It's too, too close."

"It's not a crime for girls to cling to each other." Kirishima Reina's voice bounced on the floor with a sonorous force.

"do not move--"

Bai Yuan Senshu discovered that the slightly rosy skin could be seen in the gap between Kurosawa Yao's long black hair, which formed a beautiful contrast with the orange-red light in the room.

◇

The Kirishima sisters live in an ordinary double-story private house near Midorimachi Station.

"Boyuan, shake my love! See you tomorrow!" Kirishima Rina waved to the two of them, and Kirishima Glass also raised his hand to signal.

"See you tomorrow." Baiyuan Xianshu stretched his hand out of the car window.

"Shake love! See you tomorrow!" Kirishima Rina shouted

Inside the car, black hair completely covered the side of Kurosawa's face.

"Yeah." She nodded slightly, "Let's go."

The car was driving slowly, and the figures of the Kirishima sisters in the rear mirror were getting farther and farther away.

Baiyuan Xianshu saw Kurosawa Yaoai's throat twitching slightly in the mirror. The setting sun outside the window outlined her outline, and the shadow as black as ink expanded inch by inch on the tender thighs under her skirt.

"What do you want to say?" Baiyuan Immortal Tree asked.

Kurosawa Yaoai was silent for a moment, and finally relaxed his lips and said, "My grandpa asked you to go back to eat with me."

Baiyuan Xianshu turned his head with a smile and said: "I'm talking about you, you didn't play much, you just sang one song."

The dizzy sunset dyed her side face a few blushes, and the shadows falling from the street trees swallowed her body.

"General." Kurosawa Yaai said softly.

"What about the Kirishima sisters?"

"Why do you have to ask such a thing?"

"It doesn't have to be said, it doesn't matter at all." Baiyuan Immortal Tree smiled happily.

His light words and casual chat really made Kurosawa Ai feel that he was too stiff.

"It's not bad." Her tone suddenly relaxed, and she put on a smile and asked, "What about you? What do you think of them?"

However, after only a short adjustment, during this blank period, Baiyuan Fairy Tree had already started chatting with the uncle who was driving.

"Uncle, how old are you? Do you like to watch "Peter Pan"? It's the cartoon that came out in 72. My dad also likes it."

"."

"Have you been driving Kurosawa-san? Is the music she likes to listen to?"

"."

"Is this car a limited edition of LEXUS's GS300? The leather seats are so comfortable. I want to buy one in the future."

"."

"Is the fuel consumption high? How much is the acceleration per [-] kilometers? Uncle, tell me."

"."

He was like a persistent missionary who kept asking questions about this and that, but the uncle driving the car ignored him at all.

Baiyuan Xianshu frowned, turned his head to look at Kurosawa Yaoai, and made a gesture of silence and covering his ears.

"Deaf-mute?" No sound came out of his throat, and he used his mouth to convey the message.

The smile on Kurosawa's face disappeared without a trace, and he directly raised his foot and kicked the seat of Baiyuan Fairy Tree hard.

Baiyuan Immortal Tree was startled.

"what are you doing!"

"You're venting, aren't you?"

".So you feel better?"

"If I could kick your face with my foot, I would be in a better mood." Kurosawa said with a sweet smile.

"Barefoot?"

Kurosawa kept smiling while looking at his expression happily: "You don't like my heels?"

Baiyuan Xianshu pretended to be serious and said: "I think you will be more attractive if you kick a boy's face with your bare feet."

Hearing what he said, Kurosawa's little face turned red, and he put on a posture of "That's what I wanted to do" and hummed softly:
".Of course I know this!"

That's what he said, but he didn't mean to take off his shoes and mid-calf socks at all.

"Stop kicking me?"

"Why should I give you a reward?" Kurosawa turned his face angrily, not looking at him at all.

This time it's quite cute.

"You are quite cute." Baiyuan Immortal Tree spit out his inner thoughts.

The sound of her kicking came from under the seat.

◇

When he came to the Kurosawa family's villa, Takao Kurosawa stood at the door with a radiant expression on his face.

At the dinner table, Kurosawa Takao did not talk about the sales of the first print of "Literature Girls", but asked them where they went to play and what they played.Kurosawa shakes love to deal with it, and Baiyuan Xianshu drizzles butter on the warm egg rolls and spreads salad and honey on the chicken pieces.

Sitting diagonally is Grandma Kurosawa, who loves Kurosawa Yaoai very much, but she is staring at the Baiyuan Fairy Tree with extremely kind eyes.

"Is the fairy tree to your liking?"

"Well, it's delicious."

"I've been cooking this rice field duck soup all afternoon, please try it."

"Thank you grandma."

The last time she came to participate in Kuisawa Shake's Ai's birthday, she was never so enthusiastic. Today's excessive enthusiasm made Baiyuan Xianshu a little overwhelmed for a while.

Kurosawa pouted slightly, picked up the empty bowl and said, "Grandma, I want it too."

"It's already so big, you can handle it yourself." Grandma Kurosawa said.

"You even helped him serve the soup." Kurosawa Yaoai said in disbelief, her little mouth moving meaninglessly like a goldfish at a temple fair.

"The fairy tree is a guest."

"Hmm" Kurosawa raised his chin, glanced at Baiyuan Immortal Tree who was drinking soup, and put the bowl directly in front of him.

Baiyuan Immortal Tree stared at the empty bowl and said, "What are you doing again?"

"Help me serve it."

"So there is a principle here where guests serve soup to the host?"

Kurosawa shook his legs slightly under the table, stared at him with his cheeks drawn, and said, "Huh, I didn't think you were a guest."

"I'm not a guest, am I your family?"

"."

Kurosawa suddenly fell silent. His words were like a bubble suddenly rising from the bottom of the sea. When the bubble exploded, an unbearable emotion burst out.

"If you don't help me, forget it! I'll do it myself! It's always like this! You have to tell me whatever I say! Can't you just listen to me for once!"

She seemed to be making excuses for herself. She blushed and stood up to serve the soup. She muttered the second half of the sentence,

"It's a pity that I still sent you to school, took you to eat delicious food, and called me a cheapskate. I think you are the one."

"Then I'll treat you to a movie next time." Baiyuan Immortal Tree heard her whisper.

Kurosawa was stunned for a moment. After serving the soup, he sat down and deliberately moved the chair to make a noise.

"Huh, it's too late to talk about this now." She said this, her profile looking a little happy.

"I'll take you to eat another delicious meal."

Baiyuan Fairy Tree overweights.

The corners of Kurosawa's mouth raised slightly, revealing a teasing smile: "You can't even afford what I want to eat."

"It doesn't depend on what you like, but on what I can share with you." Baiyuan Senshu took a sip of rich chicken soup and said, "Because I like to eat ramen, so I want to take Kurosawa-san with me."

"Because you like it, you want to take me with you?"

Kurosawa Yaoai's heart was beating wildly, she remembered that the seal pendant was left in the cabinet safe and sound, and the faint girl's mind was ups and downs and precarious.

She glanced at the Baiyuan Fairy Tree for the last time, sat upright to eat again, and said in her heart with aggrievedness and joy, "I can't twist your head off."

Takao Kurosawa and Grandma Kurosawa stared at the two, glanced at each other, and both showed meaningful smiles.

After dinner, Kurosawa took away the dishes as usual, and washed the dishes with her grandma.

Baiyuan Senshu and Kurosawa Takao came to the study.

"All the first hundred copies of the first printing have been sold, and the bookstore's return reviews are almost [-]% positive." Takao Kurosawa sat on the sofa with a carefree smile and said, "The next step is to expand the area. I will cooperate with other book clubs. Released within Kanagawa Prefecture.”

Baiyuan Immortal Tree was not surprised. Expanding the area was a matter of time.

"Isn't it too big a step to cover the entire Kanagawa Prefecture at once?"

"There is no need to take small steps. Now I regret that there were too few first impressions."

"If it's Kanagawa Prefecture, what is the print run of the reprint?" Bai Yuanxian Shu asked.

Kurosawa Takao held out two fingers.

"Twenty thousand copies?"

"Correct."

Baiyuan Xianshu put his hand on his chin. If it were 50 copies, the royalties he would get would be more than [-] yen after tax.

As long as the book is printed, the author will receive royalties from the total number of prints. As for whether the book sells well or not, it is entirely the publisher's business.

"Your royalties will be more and more in the future. It's probably not a small amount of money. The royalties for one hundred copies have already been sent to your mother. At the same time, I'm already helping you with the tax issue."

He had a very clear attitude towards the future of "Literary Girls" and continued,
"This year I can only use white filing first. I have already applied for blue filing. It is estimated that next year I can use blue filing. There is a "deduction" discount, the tax you pay will be less, and the royalties you will receive will increase. "

Kurosawa Takao didn't talk to Baiyuan Senshu in the tone of talking to a child, he completely regarded him as a partner.

Baiyuan Immortal Tree responded truthfully: "Thank you Mr. Kurosawa."

"Do you have the ideas for the second volume?" Kurosawa Takao asked with a smile as he geared up, "How long will it take for it to be released?"

Baiyuan Senshu was silent for a while. He was going to write a few songs for the Kirishima sisters now. I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to write the second volume of "Literary Girls" in a short time.

The most important thing is that he wants to get some money from his mother and go to see her in the junior high school where Mai Qingqiu is studying.

Things suddenly changed a lot.

".Is it okay at the end of July?"

"Three months~~"

Kurosawa Takao took a breath, but thinking of his previous conversation with Kashiwahara Miyuki, he also compromised.
"That's okay, the heat shouldn't drop too much, and you can't fall behind in your studies, otherwise I'll be sorry for your mother."

"Don't worry." Baiyuan Immortal Tree smiled.

Kurosawa Takao stood up and took out several exquisite small gift bags from the cabinet: "You can take these things back and eat them."

Baiyuan Xianshu took the bag, which contained an expensive-looking small cake.

"Thank you, grandpa. If nothing happens, I'll leave first."

"Okay, I'll take you home."

Walking out of the study and into the hall, Kurosawa Ai was sitting on the sofa reading a book. Her bare feet were white and red, and her skirt seemed to be bright and full of spring scenery.

But still can't see it.

The TV was on, seemingly just to add some sound.

Baiyuan Xianshu led the bag and walked over, and found that she was reading the score, and the symbols on the staff were swimming like tadpoles.

"Who is better, you or Pollini?"

He suddenly spoke, startling Kurosawa Yaai, who turned around and glared at him: "Why are you still here?"

"Come and get some food." Baiyuan Immortal Tree picked up the bag.

"What do you think my house is? A store?" Kurosawa said with a pout.

"So who is better, you or Pollini?"

Kurosawa said without changing his face: "Of course I am stronger."

"Ouch -" Baiyuan Xianshu chuckled. Pollini is one of the greatest pianists in the world, and his performance has always been flawless.

Baiyuan Xianshu compared Polini with her just to tease her. Unexpectedly, this person was so arrogant, making people not think that she was just a girl in the first year of junior high school.

"I'm going."

"Let's go quickly." Kurosawa's eyes fell on the music score again, and his hands seemed to be playing an air piano in the air.

Baiyuan Xianshu smiled helplessly. As soon as he walked out of the door, Kurosawa Yaoai quietly put down the book. He hid behind the sofa with only his head popping up and quietly watched him get into Kurosawa Takao's car.

"If you don't take me to eat ramen, your head will be smashed."

However, Baiyuan Xianshu, who was already in the car, did not hear her voice at all.
