Yukinoshita Yukino could only blink slightly, responded, and watched Yushan and the other two walk up to her.
"Sister Yukinoshita." Having not seen each other for a while, Shirosaki Hana greeted her warmly.
"Yukinoshita-senpai." Tsuchima wiped the sweat from her cheeks and spoke with a smile.
Looking at Yushan and the other two, Yukinoshita Yukino finally spoke up: "Did you guys go to morning exercise together today?"
"Well, it's obvious." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
Looking at the three people, Yukinoshita Yukino blinked slightly, then turned and walked into the apartment.
Looking at Yukinoshita Yukino's back, Yushan Kazuto suddenly felt something strange and followed her into the apartment.
……
After breakfast, Doma Mei and Shirosaki Hana returned to their room and started reading the comics they had been longing for. Hayama Kazuto sat on the sofa with Yukinoshita Yukino, and the scene was a little quiet.
"Did your mother look for you yesterday?" After a long time, Yukinoshita Yukino spoke.
"Yeah." Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink and responded.
Yukinoshita Yukino blinked her eyes slightly. Last night, after Mrs. Yukinoshita returned to Chiba, she went to her apartment.
Although he didn't say anything, as if he was just visiting Yukinoshita Yukino on his way back, it seemed as if everything was implied.
"How are the terms going?" asked Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Well... I can only say that the experimental team has made some concessions." Yushan Heren said.
After the meal, and after a heated discussion, the experimental team finally lowered the original bid of 255 million to 250 million, a saving of 5 million yen!
As for the initial offer given by the experimenters to Mrs. Yukinoshita, Yushan Kazuto was not very clear about it. After all, before Yushan Kazuto arrived, the two sides must have been bargaining for a long time.
"Is that so?" Yukinoshita Yukino blinked slightly.
When she came to Tokyo last week, Mrs. Yukinoshita only gave her a budget of 100 million yen, but the experimental team's quotation was as high as 400 million yen. With such a huge gap, Yukinoshita Yukino knew that there would be no cooperation before the negotiations even started.
After all, the 17th Laboratory of Science and Technology is not a flea market, so there is not much room for bargaining.
If Yukinoshita Yukino knew that the final transaction price of Mrs. Yukinoshita was 250 million yen, she would probably be a little surprised.
After all, based on the initial offer from the experimental team, Yukinoshita Yukino felt that being able to negotiate the price down to within 320 million, cutting 20% of the price, would be already very good.
The price that Mrs. Yukinoshita bargained for was nearly twice as much as Yukinoshita Yukino expected, which really makes one sigh at how experienced Mrs. Yukinoshita was.
Of course, if Yushan Kazuto knew the experimental team's initial offer, he would understand why they refused to give in.
This doesn't look like they're here to negotiate, it's simply like they're here to rob!
"Why are you asking this?" Yushan Heren asked.
He didn't want Yukinoshita Yukino to know that he had advanced money for Mrs. Yukinoshita, otherwise it would seem like he was doing a favor.
"Nothing." Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head and said.
Mrs. Yukinoshita did not explain to her the specific circumstances of yesterday. Although Yukinoshita Yukino noticed something strange, she did not associate it with this aspect.
The living room fell into silence again. Yushan Kazuto leaned back on the sofa and blinked.
"Are you planning on going out this weekend?"
After a long time, it was Yukinoshita Yukino who broke the silence again.
Yushan Kazuto blinked and glanced at Yukinoshita Yukino. Normally, she was not the kind of person who would find topics to talk about on her own.
"Well... I'm planning to go to the welfare home, but I should go there tomorrow." After thinking for a while, Yushan Heren said.
Hearing this, Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly, and the living room became quiet again, a hat trick.
Yushan Heren couldn't help but sigh, stood up, and said, "Does going out to buy some ingredients count as going out?"
Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but look at Yushan Kazuto and shook her head.
"Let's go together?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
Without thinking too much, Yukinoshita Yukino closed the book and stood up.
"I'll go ask Komekko and Hana if they want to go." Yushan Kazuto smiled and walked quickly into the room.
……
"Are we going to the supermarket?" Looking at Doma Yui and Shirasaki Hana who were concentrating on reading comics, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but knock on the table as a reminder.
Tsuchiya looked up and asked, "What are you going to the supermarket for?"
"What else can we do? Buy some ingredients." Yushan Heren couldn't help but say.
Originally, there were enough food in the refrigerator, but I promised to reward Tujianmai yesterday, so now there is a little less food.
"Brother Kazuto, just bring me two puddings!" Shirosaki Hana raised her hand.
"So, Xiaohua, you're not going today?" Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but look at Shirasaki Hana.
Shirosaki Hana couldn't help but blink and raised the comic in her hand.
If it were any other time, Shirasaki Hana would definitely go out with Yushan Kazuto, but today's comics really fascinated her, so she had to choose the comics with great reluctance.
"So what about you, Kouma-kun?" Yushan Kazuto looked at Doma Mai.
Doma Mai couldn't help but blink slightly. She still wanted to read the comics with Shirosaki Hana. Who knew if Hayama Kazuto would take the comics back after Shirosaki Hana finished reading them.
"Let's not go today. Senior Kazuto, please be careful on the road and come back early." said Tsuchimachi.
Yushan Heren couldn't help but shrug. He didn't expect that the two people who usually loved to go to the supermarket would actually give up today.
"Then you guys stay at home, but don't be too obsessed with watching. Xiao Ai seemed to say that she would come over in the morning. If she comes, remember to open the door for her." Yushan Heren reminded.
"Is Ai coming over?" Shirosaki Hana couldn't help but look up, "What about Mio and Ayano?"
"I don't know about that. It depends on Xiaoai and the others' arrangements." Yushan Heren shrugged and said.
Chapter 1564: Encounter in the Supermarket
"Neither of them are going?"
Looking at Yushan Kazuto who walked out of the room alone, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but ask.
"Well, maybe he was too tired from morning exercise, so he didn't want to go out." Yushan Heren smiled.
In fact, this is not without reason. Even though Shirasaki Hana and Doma Mai have been exercising more recently, the intensity of this morning's morning exercise was still relatively high for them.
The fact that the two of them were able to persevere through the full 10-kilometer run, plus some stretching exercises after arriving at the park, actually impressed Yushan Heren.
Hearing what Yushan Kazuto said, Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly and walked out of the room.
……
When he walked into the supermarket, Yushan Heren saw a familiar figure.
"Xing, are you here to buy something at the supermarket too?"
Hearing Hayama Kazuto's call, Narita Yuki suddenly became nervous and turned around hesitantly: "Kazuto-senpai."
"Did you come here alone?" After looking around Narita Yuki and not seeing Narita Akira, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but ask.
"No, father and mother are over there." Narita Yuki pointed to the daily necessities area.
Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink slightly. The daily necessities area was indeed a bit far from here and he had never seen it before.
"Do you live nearby?" asked Kazuto Yuyama, looking at the full of food ingredients in Narita Yuki's shopping cart.
"No, no, it's at Shin-Koiwa." Narita Yuki said hurriedly.
Although Narita Akira's income is pretty good and he has accumulated some wealth from his previous work abroad, this does not mean that he can afford the rent in Chiyoda Ward.
Although they are both teachers, there are some differences between Narita Akira and Kirisu Madoka.
Kirisu Mafuyu lost because one person could feed the whole family and the family did not need her subsidy, while Narita Akira had to bear the family expenses and Narita Yuki's school fees.
In Japan, the price of tutoring is still relatively expensive. Unfortunately, Narita Yuki was trapped in SAO before, which resulted in him not studying properly for nearly a year.
Even though I have tried hard to catch up, I am still a little behind my peers, so I have to continue taking tutoring classes.
Under multiple pressures such as family expenses and the tuition fees for Narita Yuki, Narita Akira finally chose to rent a house in Shin-Koiwa, where the rent is cheap and the transportation is relatively convenient.
But Yushan Kazuto was a little puzzled. Shin-Koiwa was at least ten kilometers away from here, so why did Narita Yuki come here to shop?
There haven’t been any special sales at the supermarket recently, otherwise it would be understandable.
"This supermarket is quite far from Shin-Koiwa," said Yushan Kazuto, blinking.
"After the midterm exam, the school gave out shopping coupons for the supermarket." Narita Yuki whispered.
Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly, and he finally understood why the Narita family came to this supermarket.
The supermarket is less than two kilometers away from Toyosaki and is the largest and most high-end supermarket in the Toyosaki area.
It’s not surprising that Fengzhizaki chose to hand out shopping vouchers from this supermarket.
"I see." Yushan Kazuto smiled, "Speaking of the midterm exam, how did you do, Yuki?"
Yuyama Kazuto knew about Narita Yuki's grades. When he first entered school, it was extremely difficult for him to pass the exams.
However, in recent times, Narita Yukiya has been studying hard, and Yuyama Kazuto is somewhat curious about her progress.
Narita Yuki suddenly fell silent, lowered his head and said nothing.
Even though he had put in a lot of effort and spent a lot of money on tutoring, Narita Yuki still felt that he was still a long way from the average level of the class.
Looking at Narita Yuki's appearance, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly, knowing that he might have asked something wrong.
"The questions in this midterm exam are quite difficult. I've heard Komari complain about it." said Hayama Kazuto.
Narita Yuki couldn't help but blink and bit his lip.
Although Narita Yuki knew that Yuyama Kazuto was comforting her, she also felt that the difficulty of this midterm exam was indeed beyond her expectations.
"As long as you work hard, there will definitely be rewards. Even if the rewards are a little less, one day, the dripping water will wear away the stone." Yushan Heren smiled.
Narita Yuki couldn't help but blink slightly. Suddenly, he felt that Yushan Kazuto's tone was somewhat familiar. He couldn't help but look at Yushan Kazuto.
"come on?"
Noticing Narita Yuki's gaze, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly and quickly added.
"Well, I'll try my best." Narita Yuki couldn't help but laugh.
The appearance of Yushan Kazuto vaguely overlapped with the shadow in her mind.
"Mr. Narita is coming over too, so I'll go pick out the ingredients first."
Seeing Narita Akira coming over from afar, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but say.
Narita Yuki nodded slightly and watched Yuyama Kazuto walk to the side, then turned around and looked at Narita Akira.
"Who was that just now? Yushan?" asked Narita Akira.
"Yes, it's Senior Kazuto." Narita Yuki responded.
"Is that the one...Hayama Kazuto who helped you guess the right math problem during the entrance exam?"
Although Narita Yuki's mother had never met Hayama Kazuto, she had heard Narita Yuki and Narita Akira mention him.
"It's him." Narita Akira said.
"Did the school also give him shopping coupons?" Narita Yuki's mother couldn't help but blink.
This supermarket is positioned as high-end and the prices are not cheap.
If Toyonosaki hadn't given Narita Akira a shopping voucher, the Narita family would definitely not have come to shop.
"Senior Kazuto lives nearby." Narita Yuki still remembers the word "also" that Kazuto Hayama used when he asked her if she lived nearby.
Narita Yuki's mother couldn't help but blink slightly. She originally thought that Feng Zhizaki also gave shopping coupons to students with good grades, but now she realized that maybe she was overthinking it.
"Do you want to treat him to a meal? Didn't you always say that it was him who suggested Xiaoxing and helped her get into Toyonosaki?" Narita Yuki's mother looked at Narita Akira.
"I invited him several times, but he didn't agree." Narita Akira said with a blink.
Narita Akira would not ignore such things, but Yushan Kazuto always refused by saying he had an appointment.
"Mom, didn't you see that there were friends around senior Kazuto?" Narita Yuki bit his lip and whispered.
Following the direction of Narita Yuki's gaze, Narita Akira and others saw the figure of Yukinoshita Yukino.
"That... doesn't seem to be a student of our school."
