"Have you brought anything?" Shizuo Komemon looked at the time and asked uncomfortably.
"Ah, are you talking about this notebook?" Suzuki Ayako quickly took out a notebook with a black cover from the bag placed on the seat next to her.
But instead of handing it to Shizuo Komemon, he hugged it to his chest, leaned forward slightly apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Komemon asked me not to return the book to you before the end of the meeting."
"..." Shizuo Komemon retracted his outstretched hand and did not embarrass her. He just said with a tangled expression, "So, is this a blind date today?"
Otherwise, it would be too strange to ask an unfamiliar outsider to deliver such an important thing.
Suzuki Ayako's cheeks were slightly red, "Sorry, I didn't inform you about this in advance. Uncle Gu Meimen didn't allow me to reveal the news."
"No need to apologize, I can still tell who the culprit is." Shizuo Komemon waved his hand, "Are the old man and the Suzuki family planning a political marriage?"
There are many such alliances between powerful prosecutors and top chaebols. The upper class will always try their best to continue the prosperity of their families.
What Shizuo Komemon said was too direct, which made Suzuki Ayako a little embarrassed. She apologized and said, "I'm sorry, but that may be the case."
The other party's reaction made Shizuo Komemon feel like he was bullying others, so his tone had to be softer, "Don't take it to heart, I don't mean anything else by saying this."
"Hi." Suzuki Ayako responded obediently.
The silence lasted for a short while, and Shizuo Komemon tugged at his collar a little irritably, "Have they already decided for us?"
"Hi...Uncle Gu Meimen has already met and discussed with my parents. He said that if everything goes well, after I graduate from graduate school..."
"The old man's decision is of no use to me." Shizuo Komemon interrupted her.
After another period of silence, Suzuki Ayako took the initiative to speak, "Arnold... what does Komemon-san like to do in his daily life?"
Shizuo Komemon didn't answer, he just stared at her, making Suzuki Ayako feel uncomfortable.
"Is...is there something stuck on my face?"
"No." Shizuo Komemon shook his head, "Are you going to obey their arrangements like this? Old man, and your parents."
Suzuki Ayako smiled tenderly when she heard this, "Everyone around me is like this, so..."
"Everyone is like this, so do you have to be like this?"
Seeing that he seemed a little angry, Suzuki Ayako carefully explained: "Since you enjoy the convenience brought by the family, it is also appropriate to make some contributions to the family..."
"Even if it means happiness for the rest of my life?" Shizuo Komemon frowned.
"My parents got together almost like this, and they have a very good relationship now..."
"You should know, right? I have a reputation for violence. Choosing me is obviously not a smart decision. Maybe I will hurt you when I lose control.
If the Suzuki family wants to get married, there will be many people waiting in line, so there is no need to choose Gu Meimen."
Suzuki Ayako smiled relaxedly after hearing this, "Kumemon-san said this, but I feel relieved. People who can think about each other must have a gentle heart."
"..." Shizuo Komemon became numb and said with a dull face, "I have no house, no savings, and my salary is not even enough to compensate for the various facilities I damaged violently and the medical expenses for my injuries.
In addition, I will not inherit the Gumeimen family, and everything about the old man has nothing to do with me, so do you plan to follow me and wander around without a fixed residence?"
Suzuki Ayako tilted her head and smiled nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. I have savings, and my parents will also prepare some... Well, the house should also be prepared."
"..." Shizuo Komemon had nothing to say.
"Um...I'm sorry, am I too bad?" Suzuki Ayako pursed her lips in frustration.
"..." Gu Meimen took a deep breath and scratched her hair, "No, it's me that's bad. I'm not good enough for you."
"How could it be? Komemon-san is obviously so talented." Suzuki Ayako said sincerely.
He was so irritated. In his heart, Shizuo Komemon scolded the old man for being despicable. Wouldn't his conscience hurt if he forced such a girl in such a way?
The veins in his hand that were pressing on the coffee table bulged, and he looked as if he was about to run into a rage at any moment.
"do not know why
i like you so much
I just want to convey this feeling to you lululululu
But I can't express it smoothly...
But no matter what, I just hope that we can meet in dreams
Only in the dead of night
But you didn’t even do it once lululululu
Nor would you come to meet me in a dream
…”
Suzuki Ayako suddenly sang softly, and Komemon Shizuo immediately raised his head and stared at her, but also became quiet.
The soft and soulful singing floated in the coffee shop, and the nearby customers stopped and listened quietly.
Why did he suddenly start singing? Across two rows of tables, the sneaky Suzuki Sonoko stretched her neck, trying to figure out what was going on.
But as soon as she stood up, she noticed that the blond man was looking over, and she quickly sat back down and covered her face with the menu.
"Oh, why
Tears burst out of my eyes uncontrollably...
Tears burst out of my eyes uncontrollably..."
After the song was sung, there was a burst of applause from the surroundings. The other guests looked at the young man and woman and smiled knowingly, and then continued to eat their own meals.
"Kumemon-san...do you have someone you like?" Suzuki Ayako calmed her breathing and asked.
"Why do you ask?"
"This song, as well as other love songs, are very sad."
Komemon Shizuo didn't answer but said, "You read that book."
This song "love love" from "Dreams Come True" has never been released to the world, but now Suzuki Ayako can sing it.
"Sorry, Uncle Gu Meimen asked me to read it, saying he could learn more about you." Suzuki Ayako apologized.
"No."
"?"
"No one I like."
"That's it..."
"It didn't happen before, and it probably won't happen in the future."
"Huh?" Suzuki Ayako was stunned.
Shizuo Komemon didn't explain, how could he, a guy who could leave at any time, be qualified to fall in love? Doing that would only leave countless troubles and harm others and himself.
"How old are you this year?"
"??"
"I said age."
Suzuki Ayako was a little bit dumbfounded. Although she had known that Komemon-san was a deviant, it was too...
"He is the same age as Gumemon-san..."
"Twenty-four... you are about twenty-six years old when you graduate from graduate school." Shizuo Komemon nodded, "Although it may sound ugly to say this, I decided to say it after thinking about it.
I'm a man, and at this age I don't have any problem delaying it for a few years.
And if you are delayed by me for a few years and there is no result in the end, it will be difficult for you to get married again.
This is so unfair to you..."
Suzuki Ayako listened quietly with a smile, remembering Uncle Gu Meimen's words in her mind.
"...Although Shizuo is a child that disappoints me, there is no doubt about his responsibility as a man. He takes his responsibility very seriously, so he will not make decisions easily.
Therefore, you may need to be more proactive, please."
