Chapter 786: Young Lady, please have self-respect [8K]

Tonight, Lin Ye still planned to stay awake the entire night.

And Mai Sakurajima stayed with him.

She wanted to express her determination through this method; at the very least, she couldn't let Lin Ye pull an all-nighter alone.

But in the end, she still couldn't endure the surging sleepiness and, under Lin Ye's repeated persuasion, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Looking at the tight, elegant profile of his sleeping Senpai, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

"Sleep soundly."

"Tomorrow will definitely be a success."

……

Everything that needed to be done had been done; he had tried his best to prepare everything.

The rest depended on that little bit of luck.

It all depended on whether luck was on their side.

John watched, let out a huge yawn, and thought: What time is it already? Hurry up and sleep!

It closed its eyes and fell into a deep, snoring sleep.

Only Lin Ye persisted alone, though with coffee, black tea, peppermint candies, and the effect of his Devour superpower, the sleepiness came and went in waves.

The Devour superpower, when applied to certain ingredients, could also alleviate mental fatigue and eliminate exhaustion and sleepiness.

This effect was quite significant for him.

Otherwise,

the difficulty of staying awake for over 48 hours straight would be far too great.

Sleepiness,

is truly hard to endure.

There was only the sound of steady breathing in the apartment.

Lin Ye sat quietly by himself, and finally, feeling truly bored, he left the apartment once more—though this time, John did not accompany him.

It still had fresh memories of last night's experience and absolutely did not want to go through it again.

A dog's stamina is also limited.

Tonight, it needed to recover, rest well, and regain its energy.

Lin Ye walked alone on the streets of Chiba at night.

At this moment,

the streets were silent and deserted; there wasn't even a single shadow.

Instead, his presence added a touch of human life to the street, though this human presence always carried a hint of eeriness.

If someone were to appear, it would only cause vigilance and worry.

The rising sun of Saturday shone down, dispelling the chill and low temperature of the night.

The apartment welcomed the brightness.

Mai Sakurajima woke up once again.

This time, she discovered that Lin Ye was gone again, but she didn't feel the same worry she had yesterday morning.

She believed that Lin Ye would be fine.

"Good morning, John!"

Hearing someone call it, John immediately opened its eyes, wagged its big tail vigorously, and walked straight over.

Mai Sakurajima patted John's head again, making John even happier.

About ten minutes later,

Lin Ye returned with breakfast.

"Senpai, after we finish breakfast, we're going to Tokyo."

"Mm."

Mai Sakurajima didn't even ask for the reason and agreed immediately.

She knew she didn't need to ask; she just had to follow Lin Ye's arrangements.

Today,

is the most critical day.

If she still couldn't return to normal today, then... she would probably despair for the future!

If Lin Ye could hold on for two days now, then what about three, five, or half a month?

Mai Sakurajima's gaze fell unconsciously on the man beside her. At this moment, Lin Ye looked quite energetic, his eyes shining with luster, but if one observed closely, one could still detect a trace of fatigue.

That was the exhaustion from not sleeping for a long time.

For her sake,

Lin Ye had already gone two days without sleep.

Yesterday, she had truly intended to knock Lin Ye out with the sleep-inducing black tea so he could get a good rest; compared to her, Lin Ye should pay more attention to his own body.

She was just one person, but Lin Ye had many others besides her who cared for him and looked after him; he should consider himself more for the sake of those around him and take care of his own physical and mental health.

Yet now, he was disregarding his own body for her sake.

How was she supposed to repay this debt of gratitude?

Mai Sakurajima thought of Lin Ye's hobbies.

A bunny girl outfit with black silk stockings—she would have to wear that for three or five days to repay this debt.

Breakfast was finished quickly.

Lin Ye also poured dog food and three large chicken legs for John.

"John, this is your water and food for the next two days. At the latest, we should be back tomorrow. You'll need to stay in the apartment for these two days."

Lin Ye patted John's head.

John buried its head and ate greedily, occasionally letting out barks to indicate it already knew and there was no need to say more.

It even made sounds as if it found Lin Ye too wordy, which made Mai Sakurajima laugh out loud.

"Alright, don't worry. John will be fine on its own. If you're really uneasy, why not send it to a friend's place and trouble them to look after it for two days?"

Mai Sakurajima suggested a method and thought of a suitable candidate. "For example, Yukinoshita. She isn't very good at taking care of things, but yesterday she specifically brought you back and had to look after you."

"Senpai, you know as well as I do that Yukino hates dogs."

Calling it "hate" was actually just fear.

But for the girl's sake, Lin Ye still used the word "hate."

"Hate? She doesn't hate them, does she? She's just afraid."

Mai Sakurajima said directly.

She had seen Yukinoshita's vigilance and distance toward John with her own eyes; if she couldn't judge that, it would mean her observational skills had huge problems. ===== CHAPTER 787 =====
