Time always passes by in a hurry, and things always end in a hurry.
Forced by the senior's instructions and her efficiency during the day, Yamagami Daiya seemed to feel the joy of working efficiently during the day, and Kobayashi Reiko also seemed to feel the joy of independence under heavy pressure.
Finally, a week later, Instructor Biddle spoke in a cheerful tone with a kind smile, and the work of the three of them came to a temporary end.
As a senior student, Jiang Nian asked tentatively, "Our team successfully completed the work this time thanks to everyone's joint efforts. Thank you for your hard work, Yamagami-kun and Kobayashi-chan. I wonder if you two have time to have dinner together?"
This was Jiang Nian's first time leading a team as a senior, and he didn't know what to do, but based on previous experience, he did need to celebrate after the event was over.
Yamagami Daiya and Kobayashi Reiko were a little nervous and quickly bowed. "Okay, Ozaki-san. You decide the time. We're always available."
"Uh..." Jiang Nian was just asking, but seeing the two people's behavior, he was a little confused and then relieved.
The common sense of seniority in Japan is indeed... interesting. It turns out that the decision of the seniors is an "iron rule".
After asking the two about their tastes, Jiang Nian decided to have hot pot, one pot for each, mainly because they couldn't eat together.
Kobayashi Reiko is a vegetarian to lose weight, Shan Shangda loves fried foods, and Jiang Nian can eat anything but fried foods.
It was almost evening, dinner time, and since everyone was eating their own food, there was no need to be polite.
While eating, Jiang Nian looked at Reiko Kobayashi and Daiya Yamagami who were eating across from him. He always felt that the atmosphere between them was a little ambiguous. Whether it was their words or their eyes, there was always a hint of shyness.
"Yamagami, Xiaolin, are you hiding something from me?"
"No." Yamagami Daiya's ears were red and his voice was a little stammering, "I, I'm going to the bathroom."
After Daiya left the mountain, Reiko Kobayashi covered the lower half of her face with her hands. She was very shy, her eyes were evasive, and her voice became much cuter.
"Yamagami-kun confessed his feelings to me, but I haven't accepted yet."
Jiang Nian's eyes suddenly became bright, and he said with a look of surprise: "Oh~, you don't like him?"
Kobayashi Reiko suddenly became a little serious: "Actually, we dated some time ago, and he confessed his feelings to me on our third date."
"I decided to be just friends with him then." Kobayashi Reiko propped up her chin with one hand and covered her eyes with the other. "I'm a little sad!"
"This..." Jiang Nian was very confused, but seeing that Xiaolin Lizi was very sad, he said, "Don't be sad, you can give her another chance. Will you be happier then?"
Kobayashi Reiko: "He didn't confess to me right away. He must have hesitated."
Although this statement was a bit strange, Jiang Nian felt that it made some sense: "Don't worry, there will be someone better waiting for you."
Suddenly Jiang Nian remembered that when they were young, Yukimura Seiichi didn't seem to confess his feelings to her clearly, but just said forcefully, "From now on, you can only take pictures of him," and she foolishly agreed at that time.
In Yukimura Seiichi's mind, he had promised him, and he started to like him because he treated him to meals, snacks, etc., and later his liking for him became uncontrollable.
Kobayashi Reiko was suddenly dazzled by Jiang Nian's eyes and smile, and the happiness surrounding Jiang Nian was so sweet that she could hardly look at him.
"Senior, senior?"
Jiang Nian was called back to his senses by Xiaolin Lizi's voice, and then he smiled embarrassedly: "I just thought of the person I liked when I was a child, and I was lost in memories."
Xiaolin Lizi suddenly gave Jiang Nian a thumbs up: "Senior sister, you are the one who deserves this. You have waited until now for the person in your memories. I admire you."
Jiang Nian: "Uh... not really..." Why would someone think so?
"Actually... I'm married." Jiang Nian found it difficult to speak, "It's that person."
Kobayashi Reiko showed an expression of "as expected", and at the same time, the conclusion that her senior was love-brained was deeply imprinted in her heart.
Jiang Nian felt helpless when he saw Kobayashi Reiko's expression of "as expected". His own image was at risk!
At this time, Yamagami Daiya returned to his position. Kobayashi Reiko seemed to have made up her mind and asked, "Yamagami Daiya, if you wait for me for a year, maybe I will agree to it. Will you wait?"
Yamagami Daiya originally thought that his relationship with Kobayashi Reiko was irreversible, and he spent a long time in the bathroom adjusting his mood, but he didn't expect Kobayashi Reiko to give him another chance.
"Of course, I will wait."
The only girls that Yamagami Daiya knew and could get in touch with were Jiang Nian and Kobayashi Reiko. Waiting for one, two, or three years wouldn't make much difference.
As long as Jiang Nian doesn't get tired, he can stay up late less, but the possibility of this is very small. Yamagami is also sure that Kobayashi Reiko's situation is similar to his. She has no personal time. The reason is that her efficiency is low and her foundation is not solid.
…
The last semester soon arrived. Jiang Nian originally planned to continue studying for a doctorate under his supervisor. However, when he saw a safe left by his father, this idea became a little shaken.
After Jiang Nian left, Yukimura Seiichi began to look for someone to renovate the house left by Jiang Nian's father.
While cleaning at a housekeeping company, someone said the floor was a little hollow and unsafe, so Yukimura Seiichi found a well-preserved old safe under the floor.
Jiang Nian returned home as soon as he heard the news.
There was no key or password, and most importantly, Jiang Nian was very curious.
After asking his grandmother, Jiang Nian was even more clueless, as his grandmother knew nothing.
Fortunately, I was about to graduate and had only one class a week. After finishing the class, I immediately returned to Tokyo from Kyoto. After several weeks, I still had no clues.
But for Seiichi Yukimura, this is an extremely happy thing.
Every day when I go home, my wife is there. Sometimes she prepares dinner and lunch boxes for me, and I can sleep in her arms at night.
In this way, Yukimura Seiichi would restrain his smile before returning home every day, accompany Jiang Nian to look for clues at home, and comfort his wife who couldn't find the key.
After a frank communication between Reiko Kobayashi and Daiya Yamagami, the two became very close and quickly broke the one-year wait agreement and became a couple ahead of time.
