Takagi frowned, not seeing anything wrong with it. In his opinion, this was actually a great thing and something to celebrate.
"Mashima, look at Aki, he's already moving out, unlike you, still staying at home, enjoying your so-called curfew, ha!"
As if in retaliation for what Majima had said about him earlier, Takagi also made a sarcastic remark at this moment.
Both of them have girlfriends, but Majima has had one for a long time, yet he hasn't moved out, let alone lived with her.
Majima didn't want to discuss the matter further, simply stating, "There was nothing I could do. My family was too strict, and the University of Tokyo is in Tokyo. What could I do?"
He was also desperate. The universities he wanted to attend were all in Tokyo, and he was a local. So, according to his father's words, he should be disciplined for a few more years.
No one can be like Takagi, just packing their bags and leaving.
Coming all the way from Kyoto to the University of Tokyo instead of Kyoto University, did I lose out?
Majima didn't want to comment on whether Takagi gained or lost, but if he gave up a good place at the University of Tokyo and went to Kyoto University in Kansai, then he definitely lost.
Therefore, their situations are completely different and cannot be mentioned together.
In short, the focus now is still on Aki Tomoya's problem. Is he just troubled by moving out?
I'm afraid it's not just because of this incident; there must be some deeper reasons.
"I didn't say it was because I was moving out that this happened..."
An Yilun also smiled bitterly.
Moving out is fine, but actually he lay in bed thinking about it for a long time last night. After thinking about it all night, he realized that his father was right; it was about time to move out.
Even his father had such high hopes for him, so he might as well come out. And as his father said, it would make things much easier.
I live alone most of the time at home, and moving out won't make much difference.
Moreover, if they actually live together in the future, it won't be considered living alone anymore.
If you move out, you won't be disturbed if you live together.
His parents have considered everything for him; it's just a matter of when Aki Tomoya decides to move out.
He wasn't bothered by the prospect of moving out; he was thinking about other things.
"You don't object to this, so what's bothering you?"
At this point, Takagi couldn't understand why, if Aki Tomoya didn't object to moving out and even thought it was a good thing, then what was there to worry about?
At this moment, Aki Tomoya sighed and shook his head.
"I just suddenly realized that I seem to owe my parents something. When I was preparing for the exam, I always thought that I was the only one bearing the pressure, but now I realize that they were also gritting their teeth and preparing to fully support me. Now I want to think about them, but I realize that it is not the time to repay them yet."
Aki Tomoya only just learned about the tuition fee preparation. He was indeed prepared to attend a private university, and the pressure during the exam preparation was immense.
The parents, who directly bear the financial burden, are also under great pressure. They have only shown support until yesterday when Aki Tomoya discovered this.
The father almost exclaimed that it was fortunate his mother wasn't a full-time housewife.
Of course, that was based on the situation at the time, because back then, people didn't have high expectations for Aki Tomoya to get into a national university, especially the University of Tokyo.
But if they can get into a medical university, even an ordinary one, they are prepared to give them their full support.
On the one hand, they saw that Aki Tomoya really had that intention and was ready to fight to the death, so they couldn't just sit idly by.
On the other hand, it seems that this is to be expected, as they believe that other ordinary families like theirs that will produce medical students will also have this kind of cohesion.
So after realizing this, Aki Tomoya once again marveled at the importance society places on medicine and the different ideas instilled in the public. No wonder the doctor profession has consistently topped the list of most desirable professions in Japan.
Now, feeling the full support of his parents once again, Aki Tomoya is moved and just wants to know how to repay them.
But if I really think about it carefully, if I were to repay someone, it would be something for the future. Right now, I can't give them anything substantial, which makes me feel a little regretful.
"This is the first time I've truly felt how strong the bond was in my family!"
Aki Tomoya spoke with very complicated feelings.
He was simply moved at that moment, which is why he was troubled by the fact that he couldn't offer any substantial repayment.
Aki Tomoya's words left them speechless.
Majima and Takagi's families are different from his, so it's impossible for them to truly empathize with him at this time, but they can certainly empathize with him to some extent.
Because Aki Tomoya looks both regretful and satisfied at this moment.
"...So, have you decided where you're moving to? How about coming to Chiyoda? I live in a pretty nice place."
Takagi didn't know what to say at this point, so she changed the subject and asked Aki Tomoya if he had any plans about where he would move to since he was also moving out.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Aki Tomo couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.
"You live in what's arguably the most luxurious apartment building in all of Tokyo, and you want me to move in and be your neighbor?"
Aki Tomoya is truly impressed, and Takagi is really daring to think like that, without even considering reality.
Is a high-end apartment like the one he lives in in Chiyoda Ward affordable for the average person?
"I'd really like you to be my neighbor. How about I move to the place you're moving to?"
Takagi awkwardly scratched his head.
He didn't actually know how much the rent was for his place; he just swiped the card and that was it.
It would be nice to be neighbors with Tomoya Aki.
"Then forget it, you can go and be Mashima's neighbor."
“I’d like to, but the person who owns the house closest to his isn’t willing to sell.”
Takagi had indeed considered it; he had even asked the family if they would be willing to sell him the entire house, but he was immediately evicted.
“…When did it happen?”
Majima's lips began to twitch.
He knew absolutely nothing about this.
"Back in my freshman year, I felt it was boring living alone, so I thought I'd just become your neighbor, but it didn't work out."
"Thank goodness it didn't happen!"
Majima was incredibly relieved at that moment. It was truly fortunate that it hadn't happened; otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble he would have caused if he had been neighbors with this guy.
At this point, Aki Tomoya also decided that he absolutely could not tell Takagi where he had decided to rent an apartment.
I don't have the nerve to be neighbors with this person.
"So, Aki, where are you planning to move to?"
Takagi then asked another question.
Aki Tomoya hesitated for a long time before finally saying slowly, "I suddenly think it's better not to move out. Forget it!"
His sudden change of heart was solely aimed at Takagi; he would still move out, but he couldn't let Takagi know where he was going to live.
He doesn't need a lively neighbor like Takagi, and he doesn't want Takagi to disturb his daily life in the future.
"Not moving?"
Takagi looked suspicious, but after thinking about it, he roughly understood that both of them disliked him.
Fine, if it doesn't work, then forget it.
Takagi is actually quite comfortable living in the luxury apartment in Chiyoda. Chiyoda is so great! Moving to other places would be very inconvenient!
"Oh, then you should enjoy your time alone with your girlfriend."
Takagi said with a smirk.
He still doesn't realize that Aki Tomoya is just giving him the runaround?
Aki Tomoya felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this, but he did not want to change his decision.
"Takagi, when are you going to land?"
"What do you mean?"
"I think you've been free-spirited for long enough!"
Chapter 390 The Breath of Freedom
As for whether or not to move, Aki Tomoya finally decided to move and then began to formally discuss with his parents where it would be appropriate to move.
So we definitely can't move out this year; it'll have to wait until next year.
Taking advantage of the fact that the New Year was approaching and there was still time afterward, the parents decided to get this done as soon as possible.
So far, Aki Tomo has only mentioned moving out to Takagi and Majima.
When Aki Tomoya went on a date with Kudo Sayaka on Christmas Day, he originally intended to reveal a little something.
However, it wasn't mentioned in the end.
Because I don't know how to explain it...
If he tells Sayaka Kudo that he's moving out now, isn't that just a blatant indication that they're going to live together?
Thinking about this, Aki Tomoya found it difficult to bring up the matter.
