I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 520

Li Yan's voice was unusually hoarse and he happily said to Mashiro.

"?" Shiina Mashiro always felt that something was wrong in Li Yan's voice.

"...Promise, treat me to delicious food." Shiina Mashiro put away the test paper and then stated the purpose of his trip.

"..." Li Yan was slightly startled.

This feeling is similar to a relative's children coming to visit on the first day of the new year, or a child dressed as a ghost knocking on the door during Halloween.

But soon, he remembered that when he was encouraging Mashiro Shiina, he told her that if she did well in the exam, he would invite her out to have a nice meal.

Shiina Mashiro's living expenses are quite generous. In fact, if she wants to live, cost is not a problem. However, after living together with Nanami Aoyama, due to the principle of equal sharing of living expenses, the living expenses Nanami could afford were extremely shabby, so Mashiro and Nanami's daily life became inexplicably poor. They ate cake rolls once a week. Now she... …had completely forgotten what beef and apples tasted like.

Li Yan thought about this, and then looked at the girls who were asking for food from him. Their beautiful faces were so natural, as focused and expectant as kittens asking for food. He felt a little pitiful...

Even though the "Watson" in front of her has grown up, it is not impossible to save her several times.

"I remembered, then I'll fulfill my promise. Mashiro, wait a moment, I'll get my wallet, and we'll go out together later."

Li Yan immediately smiled and went back to find his mobile phone and wallet.

"Holmes."

Mashiro Shiina remembered something and said, "I want to go to a steakhouse."

"..."

Li Yan had just found his wallet when he heard an incredible appeal from behind him.

Steak, what is that? He has never eaten...

His original intention was just to treat her to baumkuchen...

The room was dark, Li Yan lowered his head and held his thin wallet motionless, thinking in shock.

"...Why do you suddenly want to eat steak?"

Li Yan's face was complicated and he asked doubtfully.

"Because I'm working part-time, I heard that eating beef is the best way to recover your physical strength."

Mashiro Shiina replied.

"Working?" Li Yan was stunned and asked.

"Yes, with Nanami."

Shiina Mashiro nodded and said.

…

It was dark in the residential streets under heavy snow. Li Yan came to the ATM machine and took out a stack of large-denomination banknotes distressedly. It seemed that he had to overdraw this week.

After all, Shiina Mashiro not only succeeded in the exam, but also started working part-time. He couldn't feel guilty without even praising her.

"Cough cough cough..."

Li Yan coughed a little and returned to the team from the bank ATM.

"?"

For some reason, Shiina Mashiro showed a puzzled expression when she saw Li Yan coughing again.

"Then start walking, everyone."

Li Yan looked at them and said.

"yes!!"

As a result, in addition to Shiina Mashiro's voice, Kangna's shout was also heard. In the snowy scene, Kangna raised her hands and stood on her toes.

Before departure, due to lack of cold medicine, Li Yan visited Xiao Lin's house. After Thor gave him cold medicine to take first, Kang Na, who was extremely bored during the holiday, accidentally followed Li Yan to a steakhouse. store.

"Expenses...what about next week's expenses?"

Li Yan silently calculated his family records and thought to himself.

However, before eating steak, he and Kangna had to wait for Mashiro to finish his part-time job before going there together.

※※※

A doll shop located in Shinjuku Ward.

The hourly wages of temporary employees here are quite high, 1,900 yen per hour. After four hours a day, they can maintain basic living expenses.

"Nanami said that only beautiful girls can get such an hourly wage."

When Shiina Mashiro brought Li Yan and Kang Na to the door of this store, she explained to Li Yan.

"...This is abhorrent workplace sexism."

Li Yan, who wanted to come here to work, squinted his eyes and looked at this gorgeously decorated high-end store, and whispered.

"Holmes, I get off work at 11:00, please wait a moment." Shiina Mashiro looked at Li Yan with clear and calm eyes and said.

"It doesn't matter, just go ahead."

Li Yan smiled. He was about to reach out and touch Mashiro's head to encourage him, but his hand just moved and he took it back.

"..."

The Shiina Mashiro in front of him is no longer the brat he once was. He is no longer qualified to touch the head of a self-reliant junior.

Shiina Mashiro didn't notice this, she nodded and walked into the store.

Kang Na on the side tugged at the corner of Li Yan's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Li, what are we going to do now?"

"Let me think about it..."

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked around to see if there were any coffee shops or fast food restaurants where he could spend two hours.

At this time, a sweet and childlike voice came from behind Li Yan.

"Boy, are you interested in going inside and taking a look at the dolls? These dolls are fairy tale characters carefully designed by French and Italian designers. The prices are also quite reasonable. Would you like to buy one for this lovely foreign child? ?”

An employee at the store entrance who was wearing a cat cartoon doll just came out and saw Li Yan and Kang Na. He immediately greeted and attracted them into the store with a very professional and pleasant voice.

"It's amazing, it really feels like the voice of a fairy tale character..."
