Chapter 26: Beautiful Girlfriend?

Asano Aiko saw Akiwara Yuto not moving, thinking he was worried about not entertaining her well, so she said with a smile: "Akiwara, you go open the door first; I'll read the magazine for a while."

After saying this, she took out a magazine from her handbag.

Akiwara Yuto nodded. He stood up, went downstairs to open the door, and found that the person who came this time was indeed Igawa Akemi.

She changed her outfit today, wearing a white dress with lace, wearing a sun hat, revealing a long and slender neck; her skin was very fair, and it was so transparent that one could see the veins. She was smiling at this time, and her eyes looked particularly good when she smiled, like a crescent moon, bright.

Seeing Akiwara Yuto, she smiled, then bowed politely, and said in a crisp voice: "Good morning, Akiwara-san."

Akiwara Yuto nodded to indicate, took the souvenir brought by the other party, welcomed her upstairs, and brought her to... opposite Asano Aiko...

Asano Aiko saw this beautiful girl brought by Akiwara Yuto and was stunned subconsciously. Igawa Akemi also looked at her twice after seeing her.

Both of them couldn't help but have the same thought in their hearts: Akiwara (Mr. Akiwara) actually already had such a beautiful girlfriend.

Akiwara was completely unaware of the misunderstanding between the two. He walked forward and took the initiative to introduce them to each other: "Asano, this is Igawa Akemi, a junior student at Tokyo Women's University; Ms. Igawa, this is my responsible editor, Ms. Asano Aiko."

After listening to the introduction, Igawa Akemi knew that she had thought wrong, her face turned red, and she hurriedly stepped forward to bow and salute: "Ms. Asano, I am Igawa Akemi from the Women's University Drama Club; nice to meet you, please take care of me."

Asano Aiko also immediately returned the salute and said gently: "Please also take care of me."

She originally guessed that the other party was Akiwara Yuto's girlfriend, but Akiwara Yuto had never indicated it, so maybe they were just friends? Or friends above, lovers below? But no matter what relationship the two had, it was never wrong to have a good relationship.

Holding this thought, she took the initiative to chat with this Ms. Igawa, chatting from the latest popular jewelry to some celebrity gossip, and even mixed in phrases like "very suitable for Ms. Igawa" and "not as cute as you," which made the latter smile and feel happy in her heart.

Akiwara Yuto saw that they were chatting about women's topics and couldn't get a word in, so he went to pour a cup of tea.

After chatting for a while, Asano Aiko saw that the relationship was familiar enough, and the purpose was almost achieved, feeling that staying any longer would be suspicious of being a third wheel, so she stood up and bowed to say goodbye to the two: "I have something to do today, so I'll take my leave first."

Igawa Akemi was a bit regretful; she didn't expect that she had just chatted happily with this senior, but the other party had something to do and had to leave.

Akiwara Yuto thought Asano Aiko really had something to do, so he stood up to see her off—although the two were relatively familiar, seeing guests off was a basic etiquette.

The two went down the stairs and walked to the entrance; Akiwara Yuto stopped his steps at this time and asked a confusion in his heart to Asano Aiko who was changing shoes: "Asano, if my work is to be authorized for use by others, will there be any copyright disputes?"

Asano Aiko didn't expect to be asked such a question and pondered for a while before asking back: "What aspect is it used for?"

"At this year's school festival of Tokyo Women's University, Igawa Akemi's club is going to perform a stage play, and I am preparing to adapt one of my novels into the script for this stage play."

Asano Aiko was a bit surprised; she didn't expect this answer. She looked at Akiwara with a strange look. She suspected that Akiwara's purpose in serving as a screenwriter was to pursue Igawa Akemi; after all, this kind of thing is laborious and thankless, and she couldn't think of any other reason.

But the two were just editor and writer, and she didn't want to intervene too much in Akiwara Yuto's private life, so she didn't pursue it, just said: "If it's not for commercial use, generally speaking, there is no problem."

But she was worried that Akiwara Yuto would be distracted by this kind of thing and fail to write the manuscript, so she added: "Akiwara, don't delay your usual work; write more manuscripts when you have inspiration."

Akiwara Yuto got the answer he wanted, nodded, and promised that he would deliver the manuscript on time.

After Asano Aiko left, he returned to the living room.

As soon as he came back, his whole person was surprised.

The rice cake that had been left for a whole half box was actually eaten clean, and the culprit was still blinking her eyes, putting on an "innocent" expression.

Akiwara Yuto was a bit speechless, but didn't say anything; after all, the other party was a guest, and entertaining well was a reason that should be fulfilled.

He subconsciously looked at the other party's belly and found it was still flat, a bit suspicious of where she ate it; could it be that there was a bottomless pit inside?

Igawa Akemi felt a bit embarrassed and took the initiative to propose: "Mr. Akiwara... um... the gift I brought is the Japanese sweets from Mikazukido; if you don't mind, you can open it now..."

Akiwara Yuto rolled his eyes at her, suspecting that the other party wanted to eat it herself; he couldn't figure it out; she clearly looked like a young lady, but she was not only a bit silly but also very greedy.

He was not interested in eating and decided to get straight to the point, asking politely: "Ms. Igawa, I think you have already confirmed my article, so how do you view my previous proposal?"

He planned to show his cards directly; as a writer who had already debuted, not writing manuscripts well but participating in the stage play of a university club could be said to be neglecting his proper job, but looking at it from another angle, he didn't think he would be refused.

Igawa Akemi saw Akiwara Yuto's serious expression and also became serious.

After confirming that Akiwara Yuto really had articles serialized, she immediately informed the instructor and other seniors about this matter. Although they were skeptical, they still entrusted her to obtain the script written by this "Mr. Akiwara."

In short, she came with the entrustment of the whole club today and must not mess it up.

I must work hard!

Thinking of this, she stood up, bowed deeply, and said sincerely: "Mr. Akiwara, although I don't know why you would agree to my request to join the stage play creation, if you are serious, we will definitely not live up to your work."

Akiwara Yuto saw the other party's action and was a bit surprised, but he nodded with satisfaction soon and said with a smile: "No problem, I will definitely write a work that satisfies us both."

Seeing Igawa Akemi's smiling face, Akiwara Yuto began to ponder in his heart.

The plan is smooth; next is to see which story should be adapted! ===== CHAPTER 27 =====
