I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 787
The girl put her hands on her knees and straightened her waist slightly, but her breasts did not increase much. Her eyes regained a little life, and she continued to Li Yan with a confident smile: "Okay. That's the end of my verbosity and nonsense. My performance today was indeed very poor. I didn't collect food for everyone properly, and I was angry at Kasumi Shiko like a child. I had already decided a long time ago that I have to be confident. Okay, I can’t rely on you all the time. No matter what happens... Otaku Li, you can’t always live without the girl you like by your side."
"There is no way it could be fake..."
Li Yan suddenly replied.
"Eh……"
Ying Lili was slightly startled and looked at Li Yan in surprise.
Li Yan looked at Ying Lili quietly and said, "Although I really hated phantom romance novels before, it doesn't mean I hate romance."
This young man's dark eyes seemed to be focused, but there was also a bit of confusion in his concentration. He talked about the topic of "love" for the first time and said: "People seem to be missing the other half, and they always hope to be in the vast world." After finding the other half in the sea, everyone thinks they can understand such things as love, but love is much more complicated and simpler than we imagined..."
"I am the same. I am still looking forward to and hesitant about my relationship. I am cautiously questioning my own heart and questioning what the world is like in my heart. Love is not an exchange of equal value, nor is it free gain, nor is it necessarily It will make you live happily..."
"It's just, Yinglili..."
Li Yan was still very young, but he smiled with an indescribable sense of vicissitudes and gentleness. He looked at Ying Lili and said frankly: "Even if there have been sad and painful days, maybe there will be no more in the future." After experiencing this, even if it is like this...I, including everyone, will cherish every precious day."
"..."
Under the eaves, the skin could feel the slightest chill, and Ying Lili felt a little hot and cold, and her face looked dazed.
For Yinglili, there are too many secrets about Li Yan that she doesn't know. How could a boy in his early twenties show such a smile...
"At the very least... I won't have a girlfriend until I graduate from graduate school, so at least you don't need to worry about issues like yours. There are still a few years left, and such elusive things are really uncertain."
Li Yan noticed that Ying Lili was a little confused, and then continued to explain with a reassuring expression.
"Eh...what are you talking about!?" Ying Lili was suddenly shocked and asked.
"...I mean, before I have a fixed career and living place, I won't consider falling in love for the time being." Li Yan looked a little embarrassed and repeated this meaning again.
Sawamura Eri's shocked expression could be used as a meme.
"Otaku Li, are you serious? This kind of thinking is simply from the Showa era... Well, although it is not unreasonable to think this way, if you really think it is good... it is not impossible to keep it like this for the time being."
Sawamura Eiri's expression became very strange. Her face was red, and her expression was indescribably embarrassed and nervous. But at the end of the words, it seemed that what she really wanted to say was what she really wanted to say. She seemed to hope that her mind would be confused. When the time comes, let this state not change so quickly.
In her memory, Yukinoshita Yukino, Kato Megumi, Kasumigaoka Shiu, Shiina Mashiro...such outstanding girls all made her feel a strange sense of oppression. Her extremely uneasy and hesitant mood, Eiriri still understands it. I don't know what I'm worried about.
"..."
Li Yan turned his face and looked at Yinglili quietly, who seemed to be thinking about many things.
He still couldn't see through what Eri Sawamura was thinking now.
Without the determination and preparation to make a girl happy, why didn't he also hope for a period of time to cool down everything.
Human emotions are so complex that they are difficult to describe. Even Li Yan needs to calm down. He himself, including those who are confused, will sooner or later find the answer he wants most when he calms down.
The same is true for Li Yan. He has no determination. He hopes to have one. After calming down, he or many people will know his answer.
Silently, I gave three years to wait...
It was already 8:50 at night, and the heavy rain still showed no sign of abating. Sawamura Eiri looked at the time, stood up, smiled, and said to Li Yan: "Okay, let's go back."
"Uh, do you want to go back now? Didn't you say you wanted to hide from the rain until the weather clears?" Li Yan was stunned and asked.
"It's already very late. If we don't go back now, we won't be able to soak in the hot hot springs and enjoy the night show with everyone. Li, the otaku who is with everyone, seems to be the happiest."
Ying Lili opened the umbrella, lowered her head and looked at Li Yan, stretched out her hand to pull him up, showed that brisk smile, and said: "You are wearing a raincoat, I will hold the umbrella for you, we two walk slowly If you go back, your wounds will not be exposed to rain again. Come on, Otaku Li, I will escort you this time."
Li Yan looked at Yinglili with some surprise. Finally, he smiled happily, stretched out his hand, grabbed Yinglili's hand, and stood up.
【Whoosh——! ! ! 】
On the mountain trail in the mountain forest, Yinglili, who had just walked for a while, was completely soaked by the rain. Amidst the harsh sound of the wind, Yinglili could hardly open her eyes from the rain.
"If I had known better, I wouldn't have lost my temper..."
Ying Lili seemed to really regret it and said something very unfavorable to her position. She grabbed Li Yan's arm tightly with one hand and held the umbrella with all her strength with the other hand, struggling against the wind and rain. He shouted.
"So it's not impossible to wait until the rain subsides..."
Li Yan looked at Ying Lili, whose golden bangs were stuck to her forehead, and said.
Ying Lili deliberately covered most of the umbrellas on Li Yan's side, leaving most of her body exposed to the wind and rain, but the palm holding Li Yan was so hot that it seemed like she was really protecting him.
"I said……"
Sawamura Eiri turned her head to look at Li Yan in the rain, showed a faint smile, and suddenly asked: "Otaku Li, if... if there are countless monsters and ghosts on this mountain, and I disappear here again, will you come over? Save me?"
"Eh!?"
Li Yan was stunned and looked at Ying Lili, wondering why this question seemed so familiar.
Yinglili was silent for a moment and said meaningfully: "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me... I always feel that if this thing really happens, even if I fall into hell... Otaku Li, you will come to save me. I don't know the reason. , but...that’s what I think in my mind.”
"..."
Li Yan vaguely noticed whether Yinglili remembered something, but he was silent for a moment and finally replied to Yinglili with a vague word.
"...If you remember to tell me where you are in advance."
In the long and dark rain channel, two figures held an umbrella and slowly walked towards the hotel restaurant with a bright light on the mountain amid the heavy rain...
※※※
At night, around 9:06, Li Yan and Ying Lili returned to the hotel soaked to the skin.
The hotel allowed the hot spring pool to be open until two o'clock in the morning. Eri Sawamura was naturally scolded by Kasumigaoka Shiu, but the heavy rain did not subside until ten o'clock.
After warming up their bodies, the two finally returned to the team, huddled in a room and started the leisure game of traveling.
The commotion lasted until twelve o'clock at night. After everyone went to bed, Li Yan, who had been worried about Kato Megumi's mood, secretly turned around to look at her. Megumi Kato seemed to be aware of the gaze behind her. In the dim and old wooden hotel corridor, she turned around and gave her a warm smile.
Just like Yamato Nadeshiko, so unyielding.
It seemed that this girl did not fall down because of this, and that look back and smile seemed more real than before.
No matter it was Eri or Kato Megumi, the two girls never mentioned the events of that day again. During the two-day trip together, they had barbecue, rafting and collecting mountain treasures on the first day, and took the cable car to tour the mountain scenery on the second day. , went to the waterfall to take photos, and went to the town to taste special food and buy souvenirs. The party lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday before returning to downtown Tokyo and saying goodbye again.
Immediately afterwards, Li Yan's schedule for applying to study for a master's degree in logistics at Oxford University was tightly arranged.
After the party, he no longer had any extra time to focus on various preparations before going to the UK, including visas, living expenses, local customs, and changes in academic thinking.
After the completion of Uesugi's second work, he has not released any new works.
