white night"!!!"
Kato Megumi smiled slightly, and the small hand on her shoulder had a strength that could not be ignored.
"How about a five-minute break?"
"Uh……"
"It's okay to take a five-minute break first."
PS: Reward progress report 63 (1558/10000), 6 updates are owed, this is a normal update.
There will be a follow-up update for yesterday later.
Chapter 499: Can the hot weather be cooler? Hmm...
5 minutes later, Bai Ye set off again.
It was impossible to visit all the "troublesome" business customers in one day, so Bai Ye planned the route and arranged the logistics warehouse as the final destination. He wanted to check the distribution of the goods, then clear the site and wait for the next batch of goods to cross the ocean.
Weekday afternoons are one of the times of the day with the least traffic, so you don’t have to worry too much about driving faster.
After passing an intersection, Bai Ye slowly slowed down and shook his left shoulder.
"Xiaohui, look to the left."
Kato Megumi looked left and right, and the mall in front of her was very ordinary, nothing strange about it.
"Is the new game released?"
"No, I saw there's an indoor baseball field here. Come to think of it, I haven't touched one in a while."
Kato Megumi remembered that Bai Ye had said some time ago that he would occasionally play baseball when he had free time.
"Bai Ye-kun, do you want to play baseball now?"
"No, I just found myself here suddenly, so I wanted to tell you something."
"oh oh."
Kato Megumi leaned forward and started talking.
"Come to think of it, Bai Ye-jun said that he played baseball occasionally, but I haven't heard you mention playing baseball in the past for a while."
"To be precise, I haven't touched it since last semester."
"why?"
"Obviously, there's no time left for me to play baseball."
As the name suggests, his life in the past six months was very busy, almost filling up all his after-school time, and the remaining time was only enough for sleeping.
As for the summer vacation, it goes without saying that he is with the girls almost every day. Every time he opens his eyes, he enjoys endless new things. The number of days he is alone at home can be counted on one hand.
The mall was quickly left behind by the speed of the car, but the conversation about baseball continued.
"After hearing what you said, Xiaohui, I feel like enjoying the thump-thump sound of baseball again."
"By the way, is there a baseball park near Bai Ye-kun's house?"
"No, there's no place like that in central Tokyo, where land is so expensive. The only way to enjoy baseball is to go to an indoor private baseball room. Ugh... well, I haven't exercised much in the past two weeks, and my muscles are stiff from all the work."
"Really no exercise?"
Bai Ye looked in the rearview mirror and found that Kato Megumi was hiding behind him, so he couldn't see her expression.
……
"Thank you for your support. The bookshelf will be delivered with the goods tomorrow."
"Uh-huh, please take your time."
Accompanied by familiar words of thanks that didn't even stir up any inner emotions, Bai Ye and Kato Megumi walked out of the store, ending today's visit.
Kato Megumi touched her arms and the sticky sweat made her feel uncomfortable. Although it was late summer, it was still hot in the afternoon.
"It's not cool at all this evening; it seems a bit hot and humid."
"Yeah, it's good that the store has air conditioning. It's so hot outside that it's annoying. Shouldn't it be cooler now that the sun has set?"
Kato Megumi took out a handkerchief to wipe away the sweat on her neck, then rinsed the handkerchief at the faucet in the rest area, and then handed it to Bai Ye who was drinking water with his head tilted back.
"Bai Yejun, wipe your sweat."
"well, thanks."
Although Xiaohui has used it, Bai Ye is no longer the young and innocent male protagonist in the romance comics. It is better to say that the fatigue of the day has been dispelled a lot by the refreshing girlish scent on the handkerchief.
The streets are noisy and bustling with people.
The strong smell of fireworks makes people feel more at ease, but it cannot cover up the fatigue hidden in people.
Kato Megumi took out her notebook and opened the page where her results were recorded.
The paper was repeatedly soaked with sweat and became a little wrinkled, but the ink used for recording was still clear, and every stroke was carefully made.
"This is the last one today, and the result is..."
"Xiao Hui." Bai Ye took the towel that had been used to absorb the smell from his face and waved his hand at her nonchalantly. "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about it when we get to the warehouse. Xiao Hui, you've been holding back your expression all day. It's really tiring for you."
Kato Megumi did not take it lightly.
It is indeed a pleasure to accompany Bai Ye in the name of "secretary", but physical fatigue cannot be ignored.
And after these two days, she had a new understanding of the boy she loved.
"Bai Yejun, you are not omnipotent..."
Bai Ye didn't know if there was any deeper meaning in her words, but it didn't stop him from admitting his shortcomings.
"Of course. If I were omnipotent both materially and spiritually, I should be at home now, holding Xiaohui in my arms, enjoying my days leisurely. Speaking of which, it's really too hot today. Can't autumn come earlier..."
After complaining, Bai Ye picked up Kato Megumi again and drove towards the same dream road.
Because they had made special plans, it didn't take long for the two of them to reach Tanaka Shopping Street.
Tanaka Commercial Street is as usual. It is not extremely lively, but it is not deserted either. The best way to describe it is to say that it is neither hot nor cold.
However, Bai Ye still found that it was a little different from usual.
The Tanaka store, which was always lit, was now completely dark. The door, which was always slightly open, was now closed, and no one could be seen walking around in the store from the window.
"Mr. Tanaka doesn't seem to be here?"
"It should be." Bai Ye stopped the scooter and turned back to confirm again and again.
After confirming that Mr. Tanaka was indeed not there, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, not knowing whether to be happy or worried.
"Now it's better. He's not here, so I can't visit him even if I want to."
"Even if Mr. Tanaka is here, now is not a good time to visit." Kato Megumi was very concerned about the smell of sweat on her body.
"It's normal to sweat after running outside all day. Not to mention, sweating more can help you lose weight."
"But I can't hide Bai Yejun's sinister intention of dragging me into this. I have to wash myself thoroughly when I go back today, and so does Bai Yejun."
After saying that, Kato Megumi walked into the warehouse first, put her bag on the table and took out her notebook.
Seeing that she looked like she wanted to continue working, Bai Ye half-pulled and half-carried her to the lounge without saying a word, and then turned on the air conditioner.
"Xiao Hui, you still have the nerve to criticize me? It's so hot and stuffy in the warehouse. If I stay here any longer, I'm really going to become a can of herrings."
Kato Megumi patted her chest and recalled bad memories.
"Please don't say anything more, Bai Ye-kun."
This action suddenly made the atmosphere in the room, which was filled with fatigue, become cheerful.
"Hahahaha - the road to exploring delicious food is long, Xiaohui, don't give up easily! Fight -!"
"Can I try to ask Bai Yejun to be alone..."
Kato Megumi sat on the bed, her body, which had been tense all afternoon, slowly relaxed, and her slightly bulging face showed her cuteness again.
"Why did Sawamura-kun bring something like that? Even Xiao Mi, who loves fish, was scared away."
"Curiosity kills the cat~~" Bai Ye couldn't help laughing. "I just realized that Xiaohui, who always claimed not to waste food, would also shake her head and give up."
Kato Megumi's cheeks became even more puffy, and poking them felt like touching cream pudding.
"Bai Yejun is evil-minded. I want to go home."

Chapter 500 Everyone is changing and longing for
When the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, Bai Ye knocked on the door.
"Bai Ye, are you finally willing to come back?"
The warm and intimate greeting fantasy in his mind was ruthlessly shattered by reality. Bai Ye was so angry that his mouth twisted. He stepped forward and grabbed Eriri's twin ponytails, shaking them while saying:
"You sound very dissatisfied. Before that, could you please return the drinks in the refrigerator to me?"
Eriri suddenly thought of something, quickly wiped the orange juice from the corner of her mouth, and put on a heartbroken look.
"I've been helping you look after the house. I'm afraid you'll feel bad if I don't eat something, Bai Ye."
"I'm fine with that, that's what I'm going to drink tonight!"
Kato Megumi changed into slippers and walked to the entrance carrying the dinner ingredients.
"Thank you for your hard work, Sawamura-kun."
"It's okay, it's okay. Kato-kun is the one. Just think about it, you've been busy following that bastard around, you're exhausted like a dog. I feel sorry for you... Oh! I didn't say you were like a puppy, I was talking about that bastard Bai Ye!"
Kato Megumi's lips curled up slightly, and the lively atmosphere always makes people feel happy.
"Sawamura-san looks great in an apron."
"Yeah--"
Ying Lili stood on tiptoe and turned around, her brows suddenly lit up with joy, until she met Bai Ye's gaze, and immediately pursed her cherry lips.
"It's all your fault. You came back so late without even noticing what time it was. Otherwise, would I have to prepare dinner myself?"
"Are you really eating for free?!" Bai Ye was speechless.
But he did come back late today. It was almost 8 o'clock in the evening. Normally, he would have had dinner and was watching TV, but he was not exhausted.
"What did you make for dinner? Eriri, your taste is hard to guess..."
Bai Ye entered the room and saw an electric hot plate on the living room table, and next to it was the lunch box that Ying Lili brought.
Because Sayuri Sawamura prepared a four-person meal based on Eriri's portion, they only ate the seafood feast at the bottom layer and some desserts and pastries in the middle layer for lunch, and the beef platter at the top layer was still untouched.
"Hot plate, what do you want to do?"
Ying Lili brought butter and various seasonings.
"Just heat it up on the hot plate. It's too late. You don't have to wait until 10 o'clock like usual. Eat quickly. I'm starving."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Fry the meat on the hot plate and make a vegetable salad. I'll mix some flour. I always feel hungry without staple food."
After saying that, Bai Ye quickly walked to the kitchen and put on an apron.
"Xiao Hui, take a shower first. Dinner will be ready in half an hour."
"Ok."
Kato Megumi picked up her pajamas and when she stood up she noticed that Eriri was next to her, looking like she wanted to say something.
"You've worked hard today, Sawamura-kun."
"Oh, actually it's okay. You've worked hard, Kato-san..." Eriri's attitude was a little awkward, completely different from her tsundere and aggressiveness when facing Byakuya.
Kato Megumi knew that Eriri was the type of person who kept her true feelings to herself, and just because she usually laughed and joked didn't mean she didn't have any thoughts.
The fact that he was able to stay at Baiye's house so late was undoubtedly thanks to the Sawamura family.
"Could you please wash the dishes today, Sawamura-kun? I have to go home after dinner, otherwise my family will worry."
"Oh oh, leave it to me!"
After receiving an accurate response, Eriri turned and went to the kitchen with light steps.
