Chapter 3: Preparing to Write a Novel
Ever since he had that idea, Yuya's mind had been constantly active. Every now and then, under the triple attack of Chōji, Shikamaru, and Ino, he quickly grabbed a delicious piece of meat from the grill to satisfy his taste buds.
The fresh slices of meat were grilled over and over again until they became a delicacy in the world. When the barbecue tray could no longer be placed on the table, several people covered their stomachs and let out a satisfied sigh.
Chōji exaggeratedly patted his round belly like a small hill and said with some unsatisfactory feelings, "Ah, I could have a few more dishes!"
Yuya's mouth twitched at the sight of this bottomless barrel.
As the only girl with a delicate mind, Ino pushed Chōji hard with her elbow and said dissatisfied, "Hey, Chōji, Yuya invited us to have barbecue, don't be greedy!"
Looking at the furious Ino, Chōji laughed and said to Yuya, "Yuya, thanks for inviting me, in return, I'll treat you to some french fries next time!"
French fries? Chōji's favorite food~
"Alright then, Chōji treats me to the last piece of french fries!" Yuya said with a sly smile.
"Ah..." Chōji's chubby face froze, full of confusion. How could he be willing to give the last piece of french fries to someone else?
Such an appearance of Chōji made Yuya, Ino, and Shikamaru burst into laughter. Being teased, he rubbed his neck in confusion, as if he couldn't understand it.
After laughing, Yuya turned his head and saw the warm orange lights on the street. After thinking about the time, he stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll pay the bill."
After taking out the bill and putting it together, he pointed with four fingers to Yuya and said, "The total is 45,000 taels, little Yuya, just give uncle 40,000 taels!"
Yuya took out the 50,000 taels issued by the system from his small wallet, handed them to the boss with a pained expression, and said sweetly, "Thank you, uncle!" ~ "I'll come to your place for a barbecue next time!"
"Hai! Hai!" The boss happily took the money and put it on the counter, then took out a 10,000-tael bill from the counter, handed it to Yuya, and said, "Welcome next time!"
Behind a discreet partition, a pair of blue eyes stared at Yuya and the boss. After Yuya put away his wallet, he turned around and left.
...
After paying the money, Yuya returned to his seat to find Shikamaru and the other three, and found that the three were ready to leave, so they waited for Yuya to return after paying the money.
He approached and said, "Let's go, let's take the lovely Mrs. Ino home first!"
Under the lights, many men who went out to have fun at night held wine bottles and bragged exaggeratedly. The stars, hanging from the dark blue night sky curtain, looked so beautiful.
Yuya crossed his hands behind his head, chatting casually with Shikamaru, Ino, and Chōji, very happy. The Yamanaka family is also located on the east end of the village, so it was very convenient. Some people walked and talked, and it took about half an hour to take Ino to the door.
Yamanaka Ino took a big step forward, then turned around, stuck her tongue out at the three of them, and said mischievously, "Just leave me here."
"Rest early!" Yuya lowered his hands, smiled at Ino, and said.
"Hai! Thank you, Mr. Yuya, for your hospitality today!" After bowing to Yuya, Ino stood up and said cheerfully.
"Ah, thank you!" Chōji slapped his forehead and said.
"Yeah, whatever, thanks~" Shikamaru also thanked.
Yuya immediately waved his hand and said seriously, "Oh, we're friends, why are you worried about this? Well, the three of us are also going home, goodbye Ino."
After saying goodbye to Ino, the three turned around to leave. Ino looked at Yuya who was about to walk into the night, suddenly remembered something, and shouted loudly, "Ah, Yuya, wait a minute!"
Yuya turned around, looked at Ino standing under the street lamp, and asked confusedly, "What's up?"
"Come here, I have something to tell you!" Ino ordered with a chin lift.
Shrugging helplessly in front of Shikamaru and Chōji, Yuya quickly walked to Ino's side and couldn't help but sarcastically say, "My lady, what more can I ask for?"
"Hmph!" Ino, who is called the elder lady, lifted her chin, blinked her eyes, and casually mentioned, "Tomorrow, the ninja school has a festival on campus, and today the school is still recruiting personnel, if you want to earn some extra money, you can sign up with Professor Iruka!"
It turned out that he was worried about not having money. Yuya thought of Ichiraku, looked at the cute Ino, and thanked her with a bit of teasing, "Thanks, little kind devil, I hope I can find a job tomorrow, otherwise I can only go to your house to eat and drink~"
"Smooth-tongued man! Poor thing, I'm really sorry for your stomach. Don't eat instant noodles if you don't have the next meal. Mom likes you very much. You can come to my florist, after school we can eat together later." Ino vigorously pushed Yuya's shoulder with her index finger and taught him a lesson.
"I know, but I'll have a job!" Yuya raised his hand and messed up Ino's hair, making a mess of her soft yellow hair, then turned around and ran away, "A little punishment for the poor!"
"Ah, my hair! You, wait for me!"
Ino's shouts were still behind him, but Yuya, Shikamaru, and Chōji quickly fled in tacit understanding, leaving only an angry Ino at the door.
The corners of Yuya's mouth lifted and his gaze softened a lot in the dark night.
Ino, what a kind girl!
At the intersection ahead, he stopped to say goodbye to Shikamaru and Chōji. After thanking them again, they parted ways.
Walking alone on the bustling commercial street, Yuya entered a suitable store after seeing it, planning to use the remaining 10,000 taels to buy some gifts and use them to uncover news!
Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles!
Now that he has decided to write novels, draw comics, make movies, and make games, the first thing he needs to do is to understand the market before he can start preparing.
But for now, the difficulty factor of comics, movies, and games is too high, so Yuya plans to start writing novels.
