Yukino glanced at him, her expression helpless.

She removed his hand and gestured for him to continue.

Did Mai- chan tell you what she's filming in a few days?

Shuya's smile gradually brightened.

No. She doesn't talk to me much about work.

Yukino shook her head.

She didn't care about Mai's job duties; she simply had no interest in them.

She asked, "Is there something special about this that you're saying?"

"Hehe, Mai- chan is going to film an idol performance scene, it's going to be really interesting."

"Interesting..."

Yukino could tell that Shuya's tone was malicious.

She asked, "So what exactly do you want to achieve by telling me this?"

"Nothing, just wanted to ask if you want to go and watch, haha."

Shuya finally couldn't help but laugh.

He could already imagine Mai's amazing expression at that moment.

Mai didn't mention this to Yukino at all; she must have felt ashamed.

However, she felt terrible about it, while Shuya felt very happy.

Indeed, human joys and sorrows are not shared.

Yukino thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement; she had become somewhat curious about what Shuya had said.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with it; Mai was filming a TV drama, and she would see Mai's performance sooner or later.

It's just a matter of whether you watch it sooner or later.

Contact me then.

"Your smile is quite pleasant."

Shuya poked her cheek, only to be shoved away with his elbow in disgust.

Don't get so close.

"Yes, yes."

"Goodbye."

Yukino quickened her pace and left.

Shuya followed beside her, swinging his arms. She frowned and asked, "Why are you following me?"

Where to go next?

"They didn't even ask me first if I could come along..."

Yukino replied helplessly, "Go buy the ingredients for dinner."

I want a hamburger steak.

"... well."

Shuya successfully got a free dinner.

As of November 30th this year, the two books have a total of 800,000 words updated, 312 "razor blades" (a euphemism for being rejected), 32,012 coins in tips, 839,146 coins in subscriptions, and royalties of 4,680.10 yuan.

In 2020, the total royalties earned by Hedgehog Cat surpassed those of 82.09% of other writers. Total income in 2020 increased by 359.39% compared to 2019.

See the payment now? I wasn't trying to play the victim; I genuinely failed miserably, hahaha.

What I didn't expect was that my data still put me in the top 20% of people. The rest must be nobodies. The reputation of this "nobodies' nest" is well-deserved. It's hilarious.

Finally, thank you to all the subscribers and donors!

Section 662, Chapter 617: Spicy Animation Officially Takes Off

Having successfully gotten a free meal Shuya went to the supermarket with Yukino to buy groceries.

After they finished picking out their things, the two went to Yukino's house.

As Shuya was contemplating what kind of post-dinner exercise he would do, he saw Motoko's large head appear at Yukino's doorstep.

Motoko's face was filled with anticipation, and when she saw the bag full of materials that Yukino was carrying, tears almost welled up in her eyes.

Then, the next second she saw Shuya next to her.

Her eyes finally settled on the right spot:

"Yukino, you tricked me!"

She was furious.

Yukino: "I'm planning to cook your favorite dish."

Motoko: "..."

She wanted to stay angry, but she had given too much.

She wiped away her tears.

However, Shuya's five fingers gripped her head firmly. "Motoko, you've come at just the right time."

Doge. jpg.

Motoko struggled, crying out, "Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!"

Yukino said calmly, "If you weren't completely brain-dead, you would have guessed that I was the one who asked her to come. You know why."

Shuya hummed in response, "I don't know, I haven't thought about what I'll do after dinner."

He released Motoko.

Motoko took a few steps back and cautiously said to Yukino, "Yukino, forgive my bluntness, but haven't you considered that Inoue- kun might do something to both of us at the same time?"

If she had known beforehand that Shuya coming, she wouldn't have come as a third wheel; she wouldn't have put herself in danger.

... Well, probably... Ah, but Yukino's cooking is really good...

She was caught in a deep dilemma.

Yukino didn't seem to care. "If he's really that desperate, I can't resist. Whether you come or not, he'll eventually take you down. So the result is the same, you don't need to think too much about it."

"Alright, stop making it sound like I'm a pervert."

Shuya shook his head.

"Very good, go in."

Yukino was satisfied with his attitude and opened the door to let Motoko and Shuya in.

She took off her shoes, went inside, put her things on the table, and then turned around and said:

"Wait in the living room for a bit, I'll change my clothes and then I'll start cooking."

Motoko nodded, of course.

Shuya replied, "Alright. Then, while we're at it, I'll chat with Motoko about the erotic novels she writes."

"Waaah, they really got their revenge."

... I am clearly innocent.

Motoko looked miserable, her cheeks flushed.

Yukino upon hearing this.

Her expression twisted; she wanted to laugh, but out of consideration for Motoko's feelings, she forced herself to keep a straight face.

She merely glanced at Motoko, said nothing, and went back to her room.

"Ooh!"

Motoko crouched on the ground, clutching her head; if there were a hole, she would have loved to crawl into it.

"Inoue- kun..."

She looked at Shuya with a resentful expression.

He said, "So, about your novel..."

"You really want to discuss this with me?"

Motoko didn't expect him to be serious, and she felt very awkward.

Shuya said, "For the sake of my reading experience, let's discuss it."

"I don't need it anymore. I've stopped writing."

Motoko told an obvious lie.

Shuya bluntly stated his opinion. "I think there's too much battle content in your articles."

I don't know what you're talking about.

Motoko was pretending to be dead, but her body betrayed her by perking up her ears.

Shuya continued to offer his opinions to her.

Why should we focus more on developing the female protagonist's character and background, so that the battles will be more exciting? Why is the male protagonist's fighting style not flashy enough? He should watch more similar works...

And so on, with ambiguous meanings.

"Oh, I see."

Motoko nodded involuntarily, but immediately looked guiltily at the ceiling.

She knew Yukino could hear them, so she didn't dare say anything.

From the heart.

Seeing her like this, Shuya naturally wanted to flirt with her a bit more, so he deliberately steered the conversation in that direction.

He watched as Motoko looked incredibly embarrassed and adorable, and his mood gradually improved.

Motoko is really fun.

After playing for a while, Yukino finished cooking. Motoko quickly ran to eat.

Shuya's attention was focused on eating, so he let her go.

After dinner, Shuya lay on the sofa watching TV and resting. Yukino said to Motoko, "Stay tonight, let's chat."

"OK."

Motoko answered casually without thinking too much about it at first.

But soon, she asked warily, "You're not plotting against me again, are you?"

"No, it's just a countermeasure to prevent Inoue- kun from leaving behind."

"Oh... wait, isn't this a scheme against me?"

Motoko frowned.

Yukino: "Motoko, about the novel Inoue -kun mentioned before..."

I really want to stay overnight!

Motoko interrupted Yukino, her expression one of utter despair.

Seeing her like this, Yukino, like Shuya thought she was very cute.

She couldn't help but smile.

Yukino said, "I'll make you a bento tomorrow."
