Kyoko Kato sat in the office, listening to the clear singing voice of the young man coming in from outside, her face was cloudy for a while, and finally, all her complicated thoughts turned into a sigh, and then stared silently at her ordinary desk.

No matter how young she thinks she is, she is no longer the carefree little girl she was twenty years ago. She, Kyoko Kato, now has her own life, her own job. Even as she drifted farther and farther away from her original dream, she was not cynical.

Because, the current life is her own choice, even if she will regret it in the future, but at least for now, she is still enjoying it.

When everyone is young, when they stand at the huge crossroads of their lives, they always think that they have just made a small decision—such as what university to go to, what major to choose, which city to work in after graduation, and finally decide which person to marry...... In the future, when I suddenly looked back and saw the immature but indomitable and indifferent self, I had to smile bitterly, sigh without regrets, and cherish it.

There are many ways to succeed in the world, and Kyoko Kato believes that success is to live life in her own way.

Even if you become an ordinary adult...... So what?

……

Megumi Kato, who was sitting closest to Jiang Yu in the audience, didn't feel much in her heart when she heard this song. Compared with other people's sighs, her only two feelings are probably - "it sounds good" and "it seems to be a little sad".

As an ordinary and smooth sailing person who only hopes for his future life, it seems to be really difficult to make Megumi Kato feel the confusion and feelings revealed in the song.

However, perhaps it is precisely because of this attitude to life that Megumi Kato has always maintained her usual style, getting along with a group of influential people in the school in the same club, and making unremitting efforts for a seemingly whimsical goal.

After the song ended, Jiang Yu didn't make any surprising moves. Continuing to return to the previous rhythm, the music played by his subordinates also switched to some familiar tunes that are known for being light-hearted and cheerful.

Most of the guests who were hooked by the song "we" just now also took the opportunity to hide their possible gaffes by various actions.

So, in an instant, the café resounded with the crisp sound of slightly uneven coffee cups and cups and plates. After hearing the familiar voice coming from his side, all the people who were doing the same thing at the same time couldn't help but smile slightly funny, shook their heads, and put the coffee cup back down.

Therefore, there was another crisp bump sound that seemed to have been agreed in advance, and at this moment, all the people present who understood would smile, and after glancing at others slightly, they gave up these meaningless actions and began to sort out their fluctuating emotions.

Man is a very strange creature. They tend to try to hide their differences in order to fit in with a group. However, the concept of a group is quite vague and can change at any time due to changes in preconditions.

Just like now, when everyone knows that others are like themselves, there will be no worries such as shame, and they will begin to sort out their uneasy hearts in a generous manner.

Subsequently, the activity was carried out in an orderly manner, and it was said that it was an activity, and naturally there were some interactive links. Of course, Kyoko Kato, who still knows what kind of audience her café is aimed at, doesn't copy the activities she has seen in one go, and all the interactive links add up to only two.

A song ordering link that everyone naturally wants to get - here I have to say that because of Kato Kyoko's care, when Jiang Yu works on weekdays, he usually chooses to play the repertoire he chooses to play, rather than ordering songs that are common in many places - and the other is a group photo.

Well, this latter event is specially for those who have come here to meet the "genius pianist" who has become an urban legend in the neighborhood for more than a month.

In addition, because the UP master who originally uploaded the video on the N station was open-mouthed, the people who can attract it here are not limited to the surrounding area centered on Chiyoda Ward.

The form of selecting "lucky audiences" for these two activities is also quite simple, just prepare a note with the number of each table in advance, and draw lots on the spot. However, if Jiang Yu knew in advance that there would be such an event, maybe he would write a randomly selected mini program or something, or maybe not?

However, even such a fair and just drawing of lots has also led to unexpected situations.

The song ordering part is just that, even if the people selected are not regular customers, at least they are guests who have heard Jiang Yu play once or twice, and they themselves have no intention of making trouble, but just choose some tracks that have been played by Jiang Yu.

By the way, "The truth that you leave" was played twice at the request of people, but no one wanted to hear "we" again. It was as if all the guests here had reached a strange consensus in some strange place.

After that, in the group photo session......

After watching a guest who was obviously an avid fan of himself walk off the stage, Jiang Yu exhaled lightly and quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, crying and laughing in his heart.

You say that if he is a star, it is just that, and then he is just a private café that is not famous, a bland pianist, why does he have such fanatical fans?

By the way, it's worth saying that the fan just now is a pretty girl who looks quite cute, is that old...... Jiang Yu is no longer than 18 years old, that is, he is a high school student like him. So......

Jiang Yu immediately shook his head, threw away the beautiful thoughts that popped up in his mind, and after spitting on himself fiercely in his heart, he looked at Megumi Kato, who was standing on the other side of the stage.

The girl nodded, walked to the center of the stage, took out a folded note from the transparent plastic box, spread it out, and didn't learn what the hosts in the variety show did to make people angry, and read directly in a flat tone: "Well, the next lucky guest is table 23." Invite this guest to come to the stage. ”

So, in the atmosphere that gradually became active because of the performance of Jiang Yu and the fan before, everyone present seemed to have left behind their reserve and truly participated in the event. Seeing the guests at table 23, which had not appeared for a long time, people couldn't help but look left and right.

Kyoko Kato's side, of course, was prepared at the beginning that guests were reluctant to come up or draw empty seats, after all, not everyone would be willing to participate in this kind of event.

Just when Megumi Kato maintained a flat face and was about to announce that the draw was invalid, a figure stood up slowly, and then walked to the stage again.

Looking at the figure that was standing next to the host in cute costumes, who looked no less impressive, or even better, the guests around couldn't help but whisper after looking at each other.

Jiang Yu and Megumi Kato looked at the familiar figure who walked up, and the smile on each other's faces, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces at the same time.

Before Jiang Yu or Megumi Kato could say anything, the girl with a proud figure was the first to speak: "What's wrong?" Surprised to see me? Junior-kun and ...... Kato-san? ”

The corners of Jiang Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't know what to say. This is probably what is called...... It is a small world?

Therefore, in this country that is only the size of Yunnan Province, it is too simple for acquaintances to meet, right?

As soon as this sentence fell, some audience members who were closer to the stage who listened to it immediately began to guess the relationship between the three people. In this short period of time tonight, there was some interaction between the pianist and the host, but it fell in the eyes of these elites in the audience.

And some of the employees gathered in the back, when they saw the figure of Ling Shuang Aoxue, some of their brains turned quickly, and they quickly remembered when they had seen this girl, and then looked at Jiang Yu's gaze and became envious.

One of the colleagues, who occasionally talked to Jiang Yu on weekdays, couldn't help but let out a voice of gritted teeth when he saw this scene: "Damn, this kid is too lucky, right?" ”

The people who were puzzled around naturally asked him questions, wanting to know what was going on for a while. Naturally, the man began to tell the story of what he had identified as the relationship between the two men, in a tone of envy.

So, for a while, the news that these two were boyfriend and girlfriend spread, and soon became known throughout the café. Because of this, everyone's gaze on the two people on the stage became ambiguous and playful.

After all, it is really unlikely that a young man has repeatedly provoked complicated thoughts in his heart with tunes, if he doesn't want to look at the other party's small loss of face and look at the other party's cramped and embarrassed appearance.

Jiang Yu, who was keenly aware that the sight around him was not quite right, knew that he couldn't be silent like this anymore, so he put on a smiling face from Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu, and said stubbornly: "Xue, why did Senior Sister come here today?" Don't you have to worry about your new work? ”

After glancing at the curious gazes around him, Jiang Yu consciously lowered his tone, just enough to be able to hear clearly between the two of them.

So, our main heroine seems to have been unconsciously ignored again?

The quick-witted Kasumigaoka Shiyu naturally understood the meaning of Jiang Yu's doing this in a blink of an eye, although she was a little disapproving-this is just like she has never deliberately concealed her identity as Xia Shizi in school, although it seems that because of her usual verbal swords, the classmates around her have no intention of inquiring into her life or personal privacy - but she did not make a clear objection, maintained her usual tone, also lowered her voice, and said unhurriedly: "For the author, As long as the work is written and handed over to the editor, the rest of the work is to think about the next work. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Yu pursed his lips quite calmly and complained: "It really looks like a best-selling author would say......

Kasumigaoka Shiyu raised his eyebrows, and said as if he had a point: "In front of the juniors, an outdated writer like me, don't dare to claim to be a bestseller~~"

Jiang Yu raised his hand to make a surrender form, and said helplessly: "Senior sister, don't make fun of me, to be honest, it is beyond my expectations to have such a work sales." Ah-I almost forgot to congratulate my senior sister, the sales of the work officially exceeded 120,000! Congratulations~"

Hearing this, although Kasumigaoka Shiyu was quite useful in his heart, he still had a modest smile on his face, and said with a chuckle: "In front of you, a best-selling author who sold more than 100,000 copies a week just by making his debut, I don't dare to say that I am very happy to see this sales." ”

"Hmm......" Jiang Yu was speechless for a while, scratching his head, he really didn't know what to do for the other party's behavior of holding on to a topic all the time.

So, just when he was worried, Megumi Kato, who was standing silently on the side, suddenly interjected: "If Kasumigaoka-senpai wants to catch up with Jiang Jun, it's better to wait for the end of the event before making a comparison, right?" There's still a lot to do after that, right? ”

"Wow!" first exclaimed, and then Jiang Yu quietly gave a thumbs up to the girl in the maid costume as if he had caught a savior, nodded his head again and again to express his approval, and then said to Kasumigaoka Shiyu, "That's it, so senior sister should hurry up and follow the steps to complete the process, if you don't want to, it's okay to go down." ”

"Oh~~?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu issued an unpredictable onomatopoeia, and then smiled, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said in an aggrieved tone, "I always feel that the juniors want the seniors to go down quickly, is it my delusion?" That's a ...... It's so sad! ”

obviously knew that the other party was pretending, but what could Jiang Yu do? Naturally, he only apologized again and again, saying that there was a problem with his statement, and he definitely didn't dislike his senior sister Yunyun......

Fortunately, Kasumigaoka Shiyu seemed to just want to play tricks on himself, a junior, and didn't think too much of embarrassment, and soon put on a serious expression and said, "...... Okay, so could you please fulfill the tiny wish of your insignificant little fan and deign to take a picture with me? ”

"If there are too many words that express the same meaning in a sentence, it is not called showmanship, it is called redundant words......"

complained a little, Jiang Yu, who was full of helplessness on his face, was pulled by Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu for a group photo.

It is worth mentioning that when taking pictures, the heads of the two were almost at zero distance, just like all couples in the world who are in love......

Alas, that's not the case!
