When you get off the bus, you will see a "Wine bar" sign, and under the sign is a passage leading to the underground.

He muttered in his heart, walked down the passage, opened the door and walked into the interior of the bar.

This bar looks inconspicuous from the outside, but the space inside is not small.

In addition to the long wooden bar and the green chairs in front, there are more than 20 tables and chairs. Against the reddish-brown walls, there is a characteristic style of punk.

Hiroto Akihara looked around, and soon found Aiko Asano at a corner table. After all, it was 3 pm now, and the entire bar was empty.

She was leaning on the table, taking a sip of wine, she looked shaky and a little hazy—the bartender standing at the bar looked at her from time to time, as if she was very worried that she would vomit on the table .

Seeing this scene, Akihara Hiroto felt relieved, no wonder the other party said he was safe, after all, there is not even a man in the whole bar except him, probably the other party is drunk and just sleeps on the table for a while.

After thinking about it, he went directly and sat opposite Asano Aiko. Although the latter noticed that he was coming, he still lay down on the table, raised his head slightly and forced a smile, "Akihara-san... why are you here?"

Hiroto Akihara was a little speechless, he didn't expect that the other party even forgot the reason why he came to discuss work.

He observed Asano Aiko again. Not only was her makeup all over, but her eyes were swollen from crying. He really didn't know what happened to her.

Thinking of the propaganda she said on the phone, he had a vague guess in his heart.

He didn't say anything, just took two tissues from the bar, and took the initiative to help the other party wipe off the makeup mixed with tears on his face. This behavior was a bit ambiguous, but the other party wouldn't mind if he was drunk now.

Asano Aiko was indeed a little drunk, she raised her face and let Akihara Yuto wipe it off for her.

After Akihara Yuto put down the tissue, she wobbled and sat up straight again, and said in a somewhat confused voice.

"Akihara, my publicity plan was rejected... I'm really, really sad, I really want your work to be seen by more people. But, they say you are a newcomer, and they say what you wrote It's too dark...the editor-in-chief also made a decision..."

Speaking of this, Asano Aiko seemed to let go of something, and burst into tears, leaving Akihara Yuto speechless for a while, and could only continue to comfort her.

He originally thought that she was an elite woman in the workplace, but he didn't expect that after drinking, she became like a little girl again.

As he comforted the other party, he had a faint guess in his heart. It was nothing more than vetoing the promotion of his work because of his qualifications, but he didn't care.

After all, he is a newcomer, and it is normal to follow the rules of the publishing house.

He had also heard about RB's junior-senior system in his previous life, and it seemed that there was a tradition of giving priority to seniors in both the workplace and school."Blow the Euphonium" filmed by KyoAni described a similar situation.

But what the hell is it written too darkly, which makes him a little confused. There are a lot of horror works on the market, but no one has said anything.

As far as he knew, even "The Hero of the Stick" with a bit of H can be sold to all ages in bookstores.Could it be that the national conditions of the parallel worlds are different?

When Akihara Yuto was thinking wildly, Asano Aiko stopped crying, as if she was a little tired from crying, she fell asleep directly on the table.

Hiroto Akihara was angry and helpless, he secretly guessed, if the other party woke up, if he recalled his current performance, would he feel that he was socially dead.

Looking at Asano Aiko who is now unconscious, he couldn't help thinking about another question.

So, what to do now?

[13.Chapter 13 is not a boyfriend]

Aiko Asano had a very complicated dream. In the dream, she desperately wanted to apply to the editor-in-chief for a proposal. The latter not only ignored her, but also announced that her column would be cut in half, and she would get out of the publishing house.

She left the publishing house in disappointment, but met Akihara Yuto on the road, who smiled softly while touching her face with his right hand.

Aiko Asano hesitated for a moment, after all, the two of them are not even lovers, so this kind of action can already be regarded as obscene.

Unexpectedly, Akihara Hiroto pinched her cheek fiercely, pinched her hard, and woke her up in pain.

She opened her eyes and found that she was lying on the bed in the bedroom. Her mother was sitting beside the bed, not only looking at her with a "kind" face, but also pinching her cheek with her right hand as a matter of course.

She quit immediately, well, it turned out that you were the one who caused me to have nightmares, and said angrily, "Mom, what are you doing, let go!"

After Mrs. Asano heard it, she pinched her harder: "Why let go, I'm afraid you'll go to the bar to drink as soon as you let go, do you know how worried I am?"

Seeing that her mother was angry, Asano Aiko who was still on the bed immediately raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, admitting her mistake.

After she apologized several times and promised not to do it again, Mrs. Asano let go of her hand, allowing her to cover her face.

"No, Mom. How did you know I went to the bar?" Asano Aiko looked puzzled.

She had already made a plan, secretly going to drink two glasses of wine by herself, and then pretending to work overtime before going home later, so that she would never be caught, that's what she used to do when she went shopping secretly with her girlfriends.

Mrs. Asano rolled her eyes, and said in an angry tone: "It's not that your boyfriend sent you back, or I was really blinded by you."

"Boyfriend, what nonsense are you talking about? How can I have a boyfriend?"

"Hey, isn't it? It's just that handsome handsome guy with a good temperament, you vomited on someone else's whole body, and the other party said it didn't matter."

Seeing her daughter's still confused expression, Mrs. Asano frowned suspiciously, and said in an uncertain tone: "By the way, his name seems to be Akihara or something."

Hearing this familiar name, Asano Aiko was shocked.

I was sent home by Hiroto Akihara?I also vomited all over him?God, what happened?

She ignored her mother who was still acting as a demon, and racked her brains to recall, some memories began to emerge in her mind.

Only then did she remember that she was crying and making noise in the bar yesterday, and then she was restless on the way back.

For a moment, she was dumbfounded, feeling ashamed and ashamed.

Ah, I'm dying, how can I face Akihara-san in the future?What will the other party think of me in the future?

Realizing that she might not be able to do anything, she got into the quilt headlong, not intending to expose her head again, and at the same time comforted herself, go to sleep, it will be fine when you wake up.

Mrs. Asano was a little funny when she saw her daughter acting like a spoiled child.

She gave up continuing to use violence, and then said in a coaxing tone to a child: "It's okay, hurry up and have dinner, don't keep others waiting."

"other people?!"

"It's that Akihara-san, you have behaved so disrespectfully to others, of course I have to keep him to change clothes, and I have to treat him to a meal as an apology."

"what!!!"

……

When Asano Aiko felt that she didn't know how to face Akihara Yuto, the latter came out of her bathroom with a helpless face.

As he wiped his hair with a towel, he wondered how unlucky he was.

After Asano Aiko was drunk, he called the editorial department and asked her home address for the reason of docking work. Then he helped her up (the drunk person was very heavy), and called a taxi she goes home.

As a result, after getting out of the car, just two steps away from her door, Asano Aiko suddenly hiccupped a few times and vomited all over him. The smell, even thinking about it now, makes people unable to look directly at it.

Fortunately, after Mrs. Asano saw it, she immediately asked him to go to the bathroom in the house to change and wash, and lent him the clothes of Asano Aiko's father, otherwise he would not know how to go back.
