Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

Page 339

She turned her head and saw Bai Ye looking at her with a "kind face", and the momentum she had just built up suddenly dissipated.

"So annoying, this isn't fun at all! Don't you have anything you're afraid of, Kasumigaoka?"

"Yeah, I'm probably afraid of the same thing as Eriri-san."

Shiyu's carefree attitude made Yinglili lose her enthusiasm.

Bai Ye walked over and rubbed her little head until she slapped her hands away impatiently.

"Anyway, I've handed this over to Eriri. Shiyu, if you have anything you want to include in the official announcement, just communicate with Eriri, but be quick."

“Okay~~”

"I'm out of energy..." Eriri slumped on the bed, her eyes losing their brilliance, and even her dazzling blonde hair dimmed a bit. "I'm tired. I wish this world would be destroyed quickly."

"Destruction will eventually come, and you must work until then. Don't try to find excuses to be lazy."

"Mmmmm--" The little golden retriever rolled around on the bed, making a fuss.

At this time, the doorbell rang.

"Is Kato-san back?"

Eriri jumped out of bed and opened the door, happily helping Kato Megumi carry the rice, which made Bai Ye look at her sideways.

Is this what it looks like to destroy the world?!

Probably, it will not happen until the last grain of food disappears.

"Xiaohui is back."

"Yeah." Kato Megumi put down her bag and stood in front of Bai Ye. "Are you video chatting with Kasumigaoka-senpai?"

"how do you know?"

"Because Bai Ye-kun only shows this expression when he sees benefits, and Bai Ye-kun is unlikely to watch strange movies while we are here, so it is only Senior."

white night"……"

Bai Ye raised his chin and frowned with doubt.

"Do I look weird?"

"Do you want me to give you a mirror to look at yourself in?" Shiyu said jokingly on the other side of the screen.

At this time, Kato Megumi walked to the computer and sat next to Bai Ye.

"Sawamura-kun brought a very rich bento, would you like to join us?"

Eriri leaned in front of the camera.

"If I don't give you Kasumigaoka food, it's no use coming here."

Shiyu was amused by her and laughed while covering her mouth:

"I want to come, but I don't want to come."

"Come if you want. We can't finish all this." Bai Ye said.

"I can finish it!" Eriri retorted.

Shiyu shook her head.

"Eating is one thing, but I want to focus on finishing my clarification statement first. Going to Xiaobai-kun's house will inevitably lead to us playing around with you guys, and then the whole day will just fly by, especially with Xiaobai-kun here!"

Hearing this, Eriri and Kato Megumi turned to look at Bai Ye and nodded at the same time.

"Indeed, if Bai Ye-kun were here..."

"That's right, it's not surprising that it's Hundan Baiye."

"Hey, hey—don't just say half of what you're saying!"

Bai Ye was speechless. What would happen if he was there?

"Anyway..." Shiyu patted the bed to attract everyone's attention. "We can talk about the party after the celebration banquet, or at least after the clarification statement is successfully released."

Knowing that the other party was a man of his word, Bai Ye gave up the idea of inviting him.

"That's it. Shiyu, call me if you have anything else. I'll sort out the customer information first."

"Yeah, I have to get up too. I'm not sleepy anymore after chatting."

After hanging up the video, Bai Ye calmed down and prepared to work. Eriri returned to the computer desk and wrote furiously, while Kato Megumi went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Shiyu is right. If everyone gets together, there is a 99% chance that it will turn into a dinner party atmosphere.

According to past experience, no one was in the mood to work, and they kept laughing and joking until the evening. Then it was dinner, and after dinner they continued chatting and joking, and the whole day passed like this.

The only time I reflected on myself was when I looked at my schedule before going to bed OTZ and cried bitterly. Then I lay in bed, covered my head with the quilt, and forgot everything.

For the sake of future reunion, patience is necessary now.

PS: Reward progress report 63 (1558/10000), 6 updates are owed, this is a normal update.

Thanks to [Saang Prison] for the 3 spicy strips, [Dian Niang I Hate You] for the 3 spicy strips, and [Yu Ye A with a Knife but No Umbrella] for the spicy strips.

It’s December already without us noticing, and there’s still half a month left until the end of this year. Time flies so fast. I suddenly feel this way this year.

Chapter 498 If failure is inevitable, it is necessary to ask for some comfort

There are 10 days left until Shiyu's autograph session.

Draw a cross on yesterday's calendar, and then draw a question mark on today's grid.

"What does the question mark mean?" Ying Lili asked, holding an iced drink. "There haven't been question marks on calendars in the past. Why is it different today? Bai Ye, are you planning something shady?"

"When will you break your preconceived notion of me?" Bai Ye closed the pen and tapped her head.

"The stereotype of Hentai?" Eriri glared at him. "Even if I refreshed my understanding of you, you'd still be drifting further and further down the Hentai path. No matter how I changed it, it was still just some fancy show Hentai. Is that meaningful?"

white night"……"

Now that Shiyu is not around, has Eriri taken over the baton of being treacherous?

Kato Megumi looked at them. She had taken off her apron and was combing her hair, getting ready to go out.

"So, why did Bai Yejun draw the question mark? Is there any special meaning?"

"It does have some meaning, but it's nothing special." Bai Ye explained as he put his computer into his bag. "The clients I visited over the past two days were all those with whom I had close relationships and were easy to negotiate with. Now that we've visited the easy ones, the only ones left are the troublesome ones."

Kato Megumi remembered something and opened her notebook.

"Come to think of it, Bai Yejun categorized my client data into the non-troublesome, relatively troublesome, and super troublesome. Are you going to visit the 'relatively troublesome' category today?"

"What kind of classification is this?" Eriri complained.

Bai Ye rubbed her little head.

"Come to think of it, I saw Byakuya-kun also categorized Aunt Sawamura."

"real?!"

Eriri became excited, pushed Bai Ye's hand away and came to Kato Megumi.

"Let me see, let me see. Bai Ye, you actually categorized Mom. You're quite brave... Which category did she put her in? Could she be 'super troublesome'? I tell you, Mom is super scary when she gets angry!"

But she searched everywhere and couldn't find Sayuri Sawamura's name.

"Where is it? No..."

"Here." Bai Ye turned the next few pages.

"Special attention... What do you mean? After Mom, there's another person, Mr. Tanaka?"

"Mr. Tanaka from Tanaka Shopping Street."

Sayuri Sawamura and Mr. Tanaka are beyond Bai Ye's current strength, but they are undoubtedly his last resort.

"Would you like to visit Mr. Tanaka with a gift today?" asked Kato Megumi.

Bai Ye thought about it carefully, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head.

Unlike Sayuri Sawamura, who had almost confirmed the relationship of being the "future mother-in-law", the relationship between him and Mr. Tanaka was just introduced by Sayuri Sawamura, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were just "acquaintances".

"At the moment, I know too little about Mr. Tanaka. I don't know what cards he holds, nor do I know how to play them. Being behind in intelligence is undoubtedly fatal. Let's talk about this later."

. . . . . .

After telling Eriri to contact them immediately if anything important happened, Bai Ye and Kato Megumi went out and got on their beloved scooters to start today's visit.

On the way, Kato Megumi started talking about the forum again.

"I'm a little worried..."

"Care about Eriri?" Bai Ye looked at the rearview mirror.

"No, I believe in Sawamura-san's ability. She is a legitimate young lady. Bai Ye-kun should not underestimate her just because of the usual playful fights."

"Eri has such a big appetite, how could I possibly underestimate her?"

The laughter echoed in this small space for a moment.

"Xiaohui, what are you worried about?"

"Well... I'm just a little concerned about Aki-kun's reaction."

"That's right, but it will take time for him to react. We have a plan ready. Before that, don't dwell on him."

"Uh-huh."

Bai Ye stopped the car and walked into a store hand in hand with Kato Megumi.

……

"excuse me."

"Yeah, please go back."

Bai Ye and Kato Megumi walked out of the store, bowed to an elderly man and thanked him, with regret on their faces.

"I failed..."

"I'm sorry, Byakuya-kun."

Bai Ye touched her head.

"Xiaohui didn't do anything wrong, so why should she apologize? She's a 'troublesome' client, so it's only to be expected that we couldn't reach an agreement."

Although I was mentally prepared for failure, it was still a hard time to bear the bitter fruit of my first order today.

"Xiaohui, let's put this company in a super troubled position. Today has really refreshed my understanding of this company. It turns out that pursuing profit is human nature."

"Okay." Kato Megumi tapped her chin with a pen. "There's one thing I don't quite understand. Didn't Bai Ye-kun offer a 8% discount yesterday? Why is he insisting on an 8.5% discount today? Clearly, there's still profit to be made if we reduce it by %."

"That being said, I really want to help Shiyu, but the reality is complicated. If I make unconditional concessions for Shiyu, what will happen if word gets out to other businesses? Especially those customers who agreed to help us without hesitation, won't their kindness be rewarded?"

Kato Megumi nodded thoughtfully.

"Isn't it the lack of wealth that worries us that worries us so much as the inequality..."

"That's the view, but it's not the only one." Bai Ye shrugged. "Shiyu, do you remember how this store responded to me when I first proposed setting up bookshelves?"

"I remember he seemed reluctant and said something like, 'It doesn't fit in.'"

"That's right. Not everyone can accept your point of view, and not everyone understands and likes light novels. Just like this store, the decoration style is quite conservative, and the owner has a Showa-like personality. I understand that it is difficult for them to accept new things."

"If we were all like-minded, I'd have reason to give them a half-point discount, but since we're not like-minded and our relationship isn't good, I really don't have any reason to convince them."

"A forced melon is not sweet, and if you twist it again it will become bitter. But two generations have passed, two generations—"

Bai Ye raised two fingers and took deep breaths to calm his dissatisfied heart.

Kato Megumi understood that if she were in Bai Yejun's position, she would have to consider the overall situation. If she rushed forward for just one goal, she might end up losing more important things.

"It's okay, Bai Ye-kun, let's go to the next one."

"Why is it suddenly you, Xiaohui, who comforts me?" Bai Ye handed her the helmet with a smile.

"Because I couldn't help Kasumigaoka-senpai, the one who feels the most pain is Byakuya-kun."

"Haha, I'm not as fragile as you think."

Yabai——it seems like Xiaohui read my mood?!

Bai Ye got on the scooter with a smile on his face. As soon as he gripped the handlebars, he felt a pair of soft little fists gently hitting his shoulders.

Turning his head, he just happened to see Kato Megumi's face, and his lips gently brushed her cheek.
