Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

"Hawaii Tour Package for Two (September 3rd to September 10th)"

"Japan Airlines, four business class tickets (round trip)"

"Hawaii Jordan Beach Luxury Hotel, Honeymoon Suite (Seven Days and Six Nights)"

…

For quite a while, Kato Hiromi just held the gift list and stared at the content on it.

She put her face up and read the words on it over and over again, feeling vaguely unreal.

Isn't this the perfect honeymoon trip that she has been thinking about for a long time, but missed it?

No, that's not right——!

Kato Hiromi's face tightened and she denied it in her heart.

To be more precise, this was a dream honeymoon trip that was a hundred times better than she expected!

She raised her head in surprise and said with bright eyes: "Liar? This is Kato-kun's gift to me? Isn't this great!? Thank you~~~!!!"

Kato Yusuke shook his head and replied humbly: "Sister Hiromi, don't say that. I caused you trouble last time. I should express whatever I say when you get married."

Kato Hiromi was stunned for a second, and then immediately realized that he was talking about his tolerance for the "group mountain climbing", with a tacit and ambiguous smile on his face.

"Ah haha, I didn't expect Kato-kun to be so generous. I really made a lot of money, that's fun!"

At this time, Kato Kazuto on the side suddenly took action and snatched the gift list back from his daughter's hand.

"Kato-san, thank you for specially preparing a gift for Hiromi. We appreciate your kindness, but we cannot accept this generous gift. You should take it back."

As he spoke, he took out a beautiful envelope and handed it to Kato Yusuke. It contained tickets for air tickets and hotels.

Kato Hiromi was anxious, "Wait! Dad!? Others have good intentions, what are you doing all of a sudden??"

"Nonsense!" Kato Kazuto sternly scolded his daughter, then looked at Kato Yusuke again and said sternly:

"Kato-kun, you are still a student. There is no reason for you to spend so much money. If your family knew that you were spending money like this, they would definitely be angry. Before they find out, you should take these things and return them."

When Hiromi Kato heard this, she shut her mouth obediently. No matter how much she wanted to go to Hawaii, she couldn't accept a gift from her junior that she bought without telling her family.

The scene suddenly became awkward.

Kato Yusuke secretly glanced at Megumi, who was standing alone not far away, and found that she had no intention of helping to rescue him, so he had to explain himself.

"Uncle Kato, you have misunderstood. My guardian will not be angry because of this kind of thing, so don't worry.

Moreover, I have already paid the full amount for the air tickets and hotels. Even if I want to refund, I cannot refund it. If I insist on refunding, I may only get half of the money back. "

Kato Kazuto was stunned and said without thinking: "Then change it to your family's name and let them play."

"Uh... I'm sorry, I'm afraid that won't work." Yusuke Kato touched his nose in confusion and said with a smile as calmly as possible:

"Uncle Kato, you don't know. My parents have been gone since I was a child. I was brought up by my grandfather, and he passed away early."

"——!!"

Kato Kazuto opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

Hiromi Kato had another reaction.

She put her hands on Kato Yusuke's shoulders and said with a deeply touched look on her face: "Wow, Kato-kun, I didn't expect your life experience to be so pitiful. It's really hard for you. Please call me sister from now on."

Kato Emi, who had been silent, couldn't help but said: "Hiromi, don't say such nonsense, others will find it troublesome. I'm sorry, Kato-kun, our family has made it difficult for you."

"No, Auntie, you're welcome." Kato Yusuke shook his head and continued the topic.

"Besides, I didn't buy all the gifts for Sister Hongmei myself. Megumi also had a share of the credit in them."

"""Xiaohui's credit???"""

Kato Kazuto, Kato Emi, and Kato Hiromi said in unison, paying attention to Keiyuki in disbelief, and a series of question marks appeared above their heads.

The girl met the family's gaze, frowned slightly, and said nothing.

Kato Kazuto looked away and asked in confusion: "Kato-kun, what do you mean by this?"

Kato Yusuke thought for a while and explained as briefly as possible.

"To put it simply, Hui and I and several other partners established a game studio. We released a work that sold well some time ago, and Hui received a share of the profits."

Kato Kazuto: "??"

Kato Emi: "??"

Kato Hiromi: "??"

The three people seemed to understand but were stunned for a while.

As an ordinary and traditional family, they usually don't pay much attention to things like otakus and games. When they first heard the news, they just felt confused.

Kato Hiromi glanced at her sister and asked curiously: "Kato-kun, are your games selling well? Xiaomei has never told us these things. Has she started making money too?"

Kato Yusuke nodded without surprise and answered in a relaxed and casual tone.

"Well, our game has sold more than 60,000 units so far, and Megumi's share of the revenue is probably more than 20 million yen."

With a "boom", the three people's heads were empty.

Immediately afterwards——

"""--What did you say!?!?"""

The voices of the three people overlapped, and their voices were full of shock and astonishment.

Kato Kazuto trembled suddenly, and the gift list and envelope in his hands fell to the ground with a clatter.

Kato Yusuke bent down to pick it up and said with a smile:

"Uncle Kato, Megumi is really outstanding. Without her, our studio would not be what it is today. For this reason, please be sure to accept this small gift."

After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply and solemnly handed over the envelope and gift list.

"Kato-san, you..." Kato Kazuto was a little at a loss. He felt that it was either a matter of whether he should accept it or not, and he just froze there.

In the end, it was Kato Emi who helped him out.

The lady reluctantly took the things away and sighed softly: "Okay, since Kato-san you have mentioned this, we will accept it shamelessly. Please raise your head quickly."

Kato Yusuke did as he was told.

And after hearing his wife's words, Kato Kazuto no longer struggled.

Kato Emi thought for a while, turned her gaze to her little daughter, who had been silent, and waved:

"Xiao Hui, I don't need you here anymore. Go greet Kato-san and pour some water for others."

Hui's face was tense and she was unwilling to act as if she was angry.

Kato Yusuke hurriedly said: "Ah, it's okay auntie, I'm not thirsty. Me and Hui have a very good relationship. You don't need to treat me as an outsider. If you need any help, just ask me."

Kato Hiromi burst into laughter and joked: "How good is it to have a good relationship~? Kato-kun, do you know that Xiaomei actually refuses to ask you to come to the wedding?"

Kato Yusuke looked embarrassed.

Kato Megumi frowned slightly and said reproachfully: "Xiao Megumi? How can you do this to others? Go ahead."

Faced with her mother's request, Hui finally no longer remained indifferent this time.

She walked over expressionlessly, without looking at anyone's face, and said "Follow me," and then left.

Kato Yusuke hurriedly caught up.

…

Come to the hotel lobby.

Hui pointed to the vending machine in the corner and asked without a smile: "What do you want to drink?"

Kato Yusuke replied: "Oh, oolong tea will be fine, thank you."

The girl didn't say anything. She bought a bottle of oolong tea from the vending machine and handed it to him, then led him to the banquet hall.

At this time, many people had gathered in the banquet hall. When they saw the two of them walking in, everyone cast curious glances, and then suddenly became quiet.

Hui's footsteps froze for a moment, and she glanced at someone behind her calmly, then she walked a little faster to a table near the stage, and said in a businesslike tone:

"... Just sit here. If you have any questions, just ask the staff. I'll go and get busy first."

How could Kato Yusuke let her leave like this? He held her hand to prevent her from leaving. He looked around and asked, "Isn't that right? You just leave me here alone? I don't know anyone."

After twitching her hand vigorously, Hui said calmly: "Didn't you come here on your own? I don't think I invited you to come, right?"

Kato Yusuke still didn't let go, "Uncle and aunt asked you to accompany me. Can you sit with me for a while?"

While saying this, he also exerted slight force on his hands. Before Hui could react, he pulled her to a chair and sat down.

I was about to get angry, but I heard someone say: "Give me some face, give me some face, so many people are watching, it will have a bad influence."

"..."

Hui pursed her lips and glanced around secretly, realizing that there were indeed many people paying attention here.

Especially women.

Although there were many handsome men in the banquet hall, the eyes of women of all ages present were almost without exception focused on Kato Yusuke.

He is like a super magnet, exuding an indescribably powerful presence and charm.

Hui felt a little bit snacky, and twitched her hand again with a hint of anger, and whispered: "Let me go."

Kato Yusuke pretended not to hear, and said to himself: "Talk to me, and I will let you go after you finish."

"…………"

Hui became extremely speechless. She quickly glanced at his side face from the corner of her eyes, with a hint of resentment in her eyes.

She really doesn't understand.

Why could this man become so handsome while becoming thicker-skinned... She didn't even dare to look at him.

‘…Is there something wrong with me? ' She thought a little depressed and said reluctantly: "So... what do you want to talk about?"

Kato Yusuke immediately heard the looseness in her tone, and felt excited in his heart. He secretly thought that this charm was not in vain, and the money was well spent.

He admitted that his methods and this coercive attitude were a bit bad, but as long as there was any possibility that Hui would be willing to talk to him, he would hold on tightly.

Kato Yusuke thought for a while and decided to start with a simpler topic, "Actually, it's nothing. I just haven't seen you for a long time and I just want to chat with you."

"Oh, yes?"

"I didn't mean to come uninvited, but I sent you many emails and LINEs, but you didn't reply, so I had to take this step."

"..."

Hui was silent for a moment, with a hint of boredom on his calm expression, and asked in a low voice:

"So you use this way to please my family? Let them put pressure on me? I really hate this approach."

Kato Yusuke was stunned, shook his head and said:

"That's wrong. You already have a share of the studio's income. We signed a contract at the beginning. I just borrowed flowers and offered Buddhas to honor my uncle and aunt.

As for trying to please...it's okay if you understand it this way. You have taken care of me for so long, and I have long wanted to say thank you to your family in person. "

"...You are really being naughty. You just came here without permission, and you talked about the studio in such a high-profile manner. How am I supposed to explain this to my parents in the future?"

"Shouldn't parents be happy that their daughter is so outstanding?"

Hui sighed softly, thinking that her parents were more frightened than happy.

As mentioned before, their family is just that kind of ordinary family.

His father works in a certain company, and his mother takes care of the family full-time, leading an ordinary life.

Now I suddenly learn that my daughter, who is still in high school, has made such a large sum of money quietly. It would be strange not to be shocked.

She said with some self-deprecation: "...I am just an ordinary girl, and I really can't live up to other people's expectations."

"That's not the case." Kato Yusuke said seriously: "And you know, I like Megumi like this."

Hui looked at him sideways and said in a serious tone: "You said that, but the person who rejected me that day was also Yusuke, right?"

"……Huh?"

"What?"

"No, I was just thinking... you are finally willing to call me by my name."

Hui's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he turned his face to the other side calmly, "You have no name, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Kato Yusuke looked at her inadvertent expression of emotion, moved his hand under the table, quietly inserted five fingers between her fingers, and then squeezed gently.

Hui struggled for a moment in repulsion, then stopped after realizing the disparity in strength between the two sides.

Kato Yusuke thought about it for a while, then slowly said, "Can we talk about what happened that day at Natsu COMI?"

Hui's expression froze and she turned to look at him emotionlessly.

The eyes were cold but calm, and at the same time exuded a subtle atmosphere with profound meaning, which made people feel chilled.

Kato Yusuke swallowed unconsciously and felt nervous.

This girl, who always considers herself a passerby and keeps saying that she is not a heroine, exudes a sense of presence and pressure that is no less than that of Shiyu.

In fact, she is even more difficult to deal with than Shiyu.

The stable heroine who can forgive anything as long as she talks nicely is long gone.

Sitting here now is a very difficult heroine who must make 100 correct choices in a row if she makes a wrong move.

Kato Yusuke suppressed the anxiety in his heart and was ready to bear all counterattacks. He took a deep breath and said:

"I hope I can apologize to you for the reason Hui has been angry with me until now. No matter what you want, I am willing to accept it."
