Chapter 77 Want To Fill Her Up?
"So this time, I'm going to prove that I'm the number one!" Kiyoura Mai said, standing up and placing one foot on the coffee table. She extended her hand into a fist, making a cheering gesture, and looked down at Li Xia from above. "Can you feel my determination?"
"Um..." Li Xia glanced at where she was standing and whispered, "Remember to wipe it later."
"Hey, you jerk, this is the spot where a beautiful young lady stepped barefoot. Aren't you going to lick it when I get home?" Kiyoura Mai instantly switched to dirty jokes mode.
Li Xia looked up and saw Kiyoura Mai wearing hot pants and long legs, looking vibrant and not connected to his fetish.
"I always feel like you're thinking something very impolite," Kiyoura Mai tilted her head back and sat down. "So what's your plan next?"
"I'll start by writing the script," Li Xia pointed to the desktop, where there was a notebook with a beginning written.
"Let me give you a suggestion," Kiyoura Mai crossed her hands and leaned on the coffee table. "I joined your team because of Senior Akane's influence."
"Do you like Akane?" Li Xia squinted his eyes.
"I'm not into girls like that," Kiyoura Mai shook her head. "I like cute boys who are willing to let me tie them up in various ways and then stroll through parks late at night."
"This is even more serious," Li Xia responded to Kiyoura Mai's confession, his heart unaffected. He had encountered too many perverts in his life, and compared to them, Kiyoura Mai was relatively safe, not even capable of eating people.
"Connections," Kiyoura Mai pointed her finger at Li Xia, with a serious expression. "Of course, a high emotional intelligence would call it personal charm. When Senior Akane was in the Literature Department, she had already published light novels. And I have a feeling that you, who are being pursued by her, must have something extraordinary."
At this point, she waved her hand. "Of course, if Senior Akane is only after your body, then disregard what I just said. As long as Senior Akane helps, it's already worth it."
"You speak in a very realistic manner," Li Xia twitched his mouth, truly not expecting this aspect.
So, it turns out that Akane has already published a light novel in her freshman year. With her appearance, she could easily pass as a beautiful girl author. Who would have thought she would go and work part-time at a hostess club?
Workplace scandals, serious illness in the family, and a series of cliché light novel plotlines flashed through his mind.
"Well, that's just how reality is," Kiyoura Mai waved her hand. "Those situations where you can surpass yourself and achieve victory by shouting a few slogans only happen in light novel plots. In reality, it's the result of a combination of various factors, and connections are the most important part."
"So, my advice to you," Kiyoura Mai looked at Li Xia, "is to learn to rely on others and let everyone do what they're good at."
"Why do I suddenly feel like a corporate slave?" Li Xia chuckled bitterly.
"Let me put it another way," Kiyoura Mai blinked at him and raised her thumb. "For the sake of victory, we must believe in the power of our comrades!"
"I'm suddenly filled with passion!" Li Xia playfully waved his hand, not sincerely agreeing.
"Well, I'm off then," Kiyoura Mai said briskly, having said what she wanted to say. She stood up and walked towards the exit. "See you at school tomorrow!"
"Let me see you off," Li Xia stood up and escorted her to the street corner, watching her get into the taxi, waving goodbye before leaving.
Kiyoura Mai's visit today was a bit unexpected, but thinking about it, it really suited her personality. She belonged to the determined type, being able to rank first in the whole class at the University of Tokyo, she definitely wasn't someone who only tells dirty jokes.
"What a serious person," Li Xia shook his head. Kiyoura Mai's visit today was to express her determination to win.
Before Li Xia went home, he called Akane on his phone. After learning about her past achievements, Li Xia wondered if he had been biased against this girl.
The call connected quickly, and Akane's voice came through the phone, as innocent as a neighboring girl.
"Is it really Li-jun? I must be dreaming."
"Cough, cough," Li Xia cleared his throat. Even though he knew Akane was very talented, her adorable, humble expectation still made him feel a little soft: "I heard from Kiyoura Mai that you published a best-selling light novel in your freshman year."
"Light novels, huh? Yeah, Li Jun, have you read them too?" Akane smiled mischievously and admitted, "If Li Jun likes them, Akane can give Li Jun the deluxe version with some extra ingredients."
"..." Li Xia didn't ask what kind of ingredients were added. Whenever he talked to Akane, he always ended up confused: "Bestsellers should make good money. Since you've already succeeded, why do you still do part-time jobs like that? Is there another reason?"
"Nope~" Akane admitted without any psychological pressure: "Being a novelist, even if your first book sells well, the next novels might not sell as well. Besides, writing novels is so tiring. I really don't want to write anymore. If I have to give a reason, it's just laziness."
"Well, okay." Li Xia was speechless for a moment. He originally thought it was some kind of workplace conspiracy, but based on his understanding of Akane, this person was straightforward and wouldn't hide anything or lie: "So why did you choose to do this part-time job? Is it because you need the money?"
"Of course." Akane affirmed: "Human necessities are just too good. Whether it's electronic products, beautiful clothes, or delicious food, you need money to exchange for them. Akane is a law-abiding ghoul who needs to earn rewards through labor. It's relatively easy and relaxing to make money in a customs store, so I chose this kind of job. There's no special reason."
"..." Li Xia's mouth twitched slightly: "So you spend all your money on food, drinks, and fun, and you don't have a family or anything?"
"No~" Akane replied: "I was raised in a shelter run by the Special Bureau. If we talk about family, the taxpayers are our family. After all, the food and drinks are provided by the taxpayers."
"If it's an institution like an orphanage, haven't you thought about visiting often?" Li Xia doesn't like to judge a person's values based on morality, but he is still curious about the values of subhuman like Akane.
"No, once we become adults, as long as we don't break the law, we have no obligations towards it." Akane's tone remained steady: "There are no people who are particularly kind to me, and there are no people who are particularly bad. Taking care of us is just a job, so it's not something memorable."
"..." Li Xia realized that he had been overthinking. Those stories of bitterness and hatred only exist in novels, and people like Akane might be the majority. He asked one last question: "Why does the world desire these material things so much?"
Li Xia felt that the question was silly after asking it. Their relationship had not reached a point where they could discuss such matters. Moreover, he wasn't qualified to judge from a moral high ground while pursuing his own rights.
Before he could apologize, there was only a brief pause on the other end of the phone, and Akane's voice was clearly heard: "Akane wants to fill her heart with things, so that she can feel like a human being, so Li Jun, I want you to filling her up?”
