Chapter 315 Haruno’s meal plan
The weather in Tokyo is getting colder day by day.
Walking on the street, there are basically people wearing thick down jackets or sweatshirts.
The cold air coming from above Siberia does not seem to decrease for half a day as time goes by. On the contrary, in this season, people can't help but worry about whether the first snow in Tokyo will start tomorrow.
It’s snowing.
Sawayama Haruno felt a little emotional.
Although he has lived in Tokyo for three or four years, snowing is still a novelty for him.
Not only because there was no snow in the area where I lived in my previous life, but also because the frequency of snow in Osaka, my hometown, was pitifully low.
Compared with other cities in the Kanto region, the snowfall in Tokyo is actually calculated. The appropriate amount will not affect the lives of ordinary people too much. If it snows like Hokkaido, it will be a lot of trouble.
“When it comes to snow, it’s very picturesque.”
Sawayama Haruno let out a breath of relief as he walked.
When it comes to snow, what comes to mind are works such as "Love Letter" and "Snow Country". However, due to different styles and other reasons, Sawayama Haruno has never considered writing these.
Now just writing "Kafka on the Shore" makes him miserable, and there is nothing he can do about thinking too much about other works. He might as well put his mind back and think about what Miss Morikawa will treat him to tonight. Woolen cloth?
Haruno Sawayama shook his head with a dumbfounded smile. After noticing that it was not far from the street where Otowa Town was, he subconsciously speeded up his pace.
But obviously, the other party didn't seem to be a person who would wait patiently for him to come and pick him up.
At the next corner, Haruno Sawayama saw the slim figure walking towards him as soon as he came around.
For the first time today, the other party wore a woolen coat, which contained an open women's suit jacket and an off-white gradient striped shirt. The lower body was wearing a rather seductive leather skirt.
Sexy black stockings paired with women's boots look full of temperament. When stepped on the ground, they will make a slight dull clicking sound, which seems to make her almost perfect figure even more proud.
What makes people even more eye-catching is that she also specially wore a small women's beret on her head.
The hat that could only cover a small part of the hair was cleverly clamped on the hair by something. Although it looked a little crooked, it showed that its owner had an indescribable sense of playfulness in such an accident.
You have the right combination of maturity and cuteness. As expected of you, Ms. Morikawa, you can definitely debut in the Tokyo fashion show. Saito Asuka, Ikeda Iraisa and Miyoshi Ayaka are all weak compared to you.
Haruno Sawayama praised a few words in his heart without hesitation, and it was not until the other party came up to him that he took the initiative to say hello.
"Why did Miss Morikawa come down by herself? Are you so anxious to treat me to dinner?" He said with a smile.
"You still have the nerve to say that."
Riho Morikawa, who had just walked over, heard his teasing and immediately rolled his eyes at him angrily.
"There's basically no one in the company anyway, so we might as well come down early."
She said with some despair: "And I worked overtime today just to avoid some troubles."
"Hey, what's the matter? Is it work-related again?"
"Let's talk as we walk."
Riho Morikawa sighed and took the initiative to lead the way.
However, after taking a few steps, she couldn't help but continue to complain.
"It has something to do with my family, but I guess Teacher Kiriyama won't understand how difficult it is for older women."
"Were you being urged to get married by your family?"
When she said this, Sawayama Haruno immediately understood.
"Miss Morikawa will be almost twenty-seven this year, right? Not getting married will indeed make the family anxious." He joked.
"Die!"
Riho Morikawa raised her hand and elbowed Haruno Sawayama viciously.
It looks a bit fierce, but actually it doesn't use any strength. Instead, it feels like being coquettish.
"Teacher Kiriyama got a girlfriend just after his freshman year, how could he understand a difficult woman like me who has been single for many years."
Riho Morikawa said a little depressed: "It's not that I don't want to look for it, but it's just that I don't have a few people around me that I can sleep with. Year after year, my family has to nag me for a long time, especially... At the end of the year.”
"Sure enough, this kind of thing is the same everywhere," Haruno Sawayama couldn't help but muttered.
Not only would relatives urge him to get married at the end of the year in the country of his previous life, but there would also be a similar situation here in the island country.
However, it is more understandable that Riho Morikawa was urged to get married. After all, most women from island countries get married early, not to mention that Riho Morikawa can basically be regarded as a "successful" person in terms of career. .
Seeing her like this, her family members would of course be anxious to urge her to find a man to fall in love with and get married.
"Everything is the same everywhere. Forget it."
Riho Morikawa scratched her head irritably.
"I get so annoyed when I talk about this. My family will probably call me later to urge me."
"No wonder you stay and work overtime." Haruno Sawayama stared curiously at the "lady's little beret" that would not fall off no matter how much it moved, and comforted: "Just tell them that they are very busy at work recently and can't take time off for the time being. Just open up.”
He paused and then added: "To be honest, I really can't understand being urged to get married, because I plan to get married next year."
"Eh, really?!"
Hearing this, Riho Morikawa was shocked.
"Really, I have already met the girl's parents, and we are discussing about getting married next year." Haruno Sawayama looked at the other party very calmly and explained, "This is the main reason why I said before that I would write the second book early. Reason.”
"No wonder."
Riho Morikawa muttered: "Getting married. It is true that some men feel a lot of pressure when facing marriage. Generally speaking, getting married means renovating a house or buying a house."
"But Teacher Kiriyama, you don't need to worry too much. Didn't I just send you the payment slip for the first month? This month's income alone is enough for you to buy a small house." she joked.
Tokyo is a wonderful place. Houses in some areas are so expensive that it’s scary to say the least, while houses in some areas are so cheap that it’s incredible.
Of course, when buying a house, you get what you pay for.
Of course, the location of a house that is too cheap is not very good. It is nominally within the boundaries of Tokyo, but in fact it is far away from the city center. It is like living in Kawasaki but still insisting that you live in it. Same as people in Tokyo.
But in any case, according to Sawayama Haruno's current financial resources, buying a house in central Tokyo will only happen in less than two months, so Morikawa Riho did not take this matter to heart.
"A small house is not feasible. My goal is to buy a decent big house in the port area."
Haruno Sawayama touched his chin and said casually: "Ms. Morikawa, does she know much about houses? Do you have any friends who work in real estate or as a real estate sales agency? Let me consult at that time."
"Do you think I am Doraemon, asking for everything from me?"
Riho Morikawa glared at him angrily.
But she really didn't know anything about it. The editing profession actually allowed you to accumulate quite a lot of connections. She just happened to have an old friend who was currently working as an agency.
"I understand, and I will contact you later. However, houses in the port area are very expensive. Even if it's because of my relationship, there won't be any discount." Riho Morikawa warned in advance.
"It doesn't matter, it's mainly because it's more convenient if you have someone you know." Haruno Sawayama said with a smile.
In the island country, if you want to buy or rent a house, you basically cannot avoid an intermediary. It is rare to contact the landlord directly, especially in areas like Tokyo.
The economic downturn in recent years has made it difficult to sell or rent some houses. If the price is too cheap, they will suffer serious losses. Therefore, most people choose to leave it to an agent to handle it slowly.
Of course, everything has exceptions. For example, the high-end apartment building where Haruno Sawayama lives now does not require the help of an intermediary, because the apartment building itself belongs to a real estate group.
"Today's juniors are really scary."
On the way to the restaurant, Riho Morikawa sighed to herself.
"If you become famous at a young age, you will soon become a multi-millionaire and be able to afford a luxury house in a place like Tokyo where land is very expensive."
She paused and said with some envy: "Even if I get promoted, I will have to work for another two years if I want to buy a decent house in Tokyo."
"Don't worry, Miss Morikawa." Haruno Sawayama didn't care what she said and said with a smile, "Maybe my next book will become popular again, and then your salary in the Otowa Group will be improved again?"
< br>
They are the type of people who thrive together. The better Haruno Sawayama's performance is, the more benefits Riho Morikawa will get as the guide.
It just so happens that Haruno Sawayama has very strong confidence in his future.
Don’t worry about whether you are stuck today or not, in short, you are confident!
"Okay, I'll leave it to Teacher Kiriyama when the time comes."
Riho Morikawa clasped her hands together in a funny way and bowed twice to Haruno Sawayama.
However, when she looked up, she spotted a strange figure in the distance.
"Huh?"
Riho Morikawa made a somewhat confused sound.
"What's wrong?"
Sawayama Haruno stopped and looked curiously at the place where the other party was looking just now.
- saw nothing.
"No, I just thought I saw someone strangely familiar."
Riho Morikawa touched the lady's beret on her head and said with some uncertainty: "Maybe I saw it wrong?"
"Really?"
Sawayama Haruno touched his chin and soon took the matter out of his mind.
He urged Riho Morikawa to walk faster, as his stomach was already growling with hunger.
