My new wife discovered my past

Watanabe thought that there would be great resistance if he sent Kurita and Yanagihara away, but he did not expect that it would be Noriko who would be the first to reject his proposal.

Even if what Jiko said made sense, in the past, when were his decisions not set in stone? Jiko almost never vetoed them.
Even if she disagreed with his approach, Noriko would secretly wink at Watanabe instead of rejecting him in person.

Just from this one detail, Toru Watanabe could tell that his wife Kiko's request to stay was definitely insincere.

Honestly, Watanabe-sensei could have guessed without even thinking that Yanagihara-san, along with Kurita-san and Takeshita-san, must have come early.

It was probably around the time when he went to meet Xing Jianyao.

For the entire afternoon, the three women were performing a drama, not to mention five women. Not to mention the content of their conversations was full of strong medicine, but Jiko was sure that something was wrong.

This woman Yanagihara Nao!!
Perhaps because he had personally killed Matsumoto Hitomi, Watanabe Toru, who had once committed murder, seemed to have broken some kind of limiter.

Friends who often kill people know that the most intense, disgusting, and nauseating feeling will only be the first time you kill someone. Once you get through this hurdle, things will get much better afterwards.

Now, Toru Watanabe has an unprecedented murderous intent towards Nao Yanagihara.

The reason was not only her crazy behavior of running to see Noriko today, but also her previous actions against Mitsuede together with Matsumoto Hitomi. Putting the new and old grudges together, Watanabe Toru was able to restrain himself from attacking on the spot simply because he saw Noriko was still there.

He had decided in his heart that the first person he would attack at the party would be Nao Yanagihara.

In fact, when Nao Yanagihara saw Tetsuya Watanabe for the first time, she was subconsciously scared and stood up and wanted to run away.

She has not forgotten what happened to Teacher Matsumoto.

So Nao Yanagihara has been avoiding Tetsuya Watanabe for some time, but she can't keep hiding forever. At least how can she not attend the party tomorrow?

She was looking forward to having fun and enjoying herself tomorrow.

After all, in front of so many people, Yanagihara didn't believe that Watanabe would dare to do anything to her.

Besides, Yanagihara also planned to take Mayumi to see how her beloved teacher Watanabe was taught by these women to become dissolute in private.

No matter how she looked at it, she had to come and meet Watanabe Tetsuya in advance today to break the curse of fear in her heart.

But it was not until Nao Yanagihara saw it with her own eyes that she realized how afraid she was of Tetsuya Watanabe.

Nao Yanagihara wasn't sure whether others could see it, but she certainly saw the bloody murderous intent that Toru Watanabe was holding back, which almost made her nauseous.

If the other party had not restrained himself and not spread out without limit, Yanagihara Nao felt that she would not be scared to run away, but would tremble with legs and urinate...

Although Nao Yanagihara knew that every woman who had a relationship with Toru Watanabe would almost always become incontinent, she was sure that they would laugh at her if she was scared to pee.

Especially the Saotome Hazuki on the opposite side.

Without the ease and freedom she had before, Nao Yanagihara no longer dared to take the lead and act as the main decision-maker. She lowered her head and behaved herself, silently praying that she didn't want Toru Watanabe to pay too much attention to her.

Saotome Hazuki saw all of Yanagihara Nao's arrogant and respectful behavior. She couldn't help laughing and covered her mouth, attracting everyone's attention in the quiet Japanese-style room.

Pretending to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, Saotome-sensei wanted to see what more embarrassing Yanagihara-san could do to make people laugh, so she also joined Noriko in saying:
"Teacher Watanabe, please invite Kurita and the others to have dinner with you. After all, they have made it here with great difficulty."

Watanabe did not give Noriko face on such an insignificant matter as whether to keep the female student for dinner. He nodded and said yes, then turned back to the door and waved to the female priestess on the corridor.

"I have three female students who want to eat dinner today. Please prepare three more portions of food. Thank you."

Since Haruka Hoshimi's attention, at least Kiko's diet will not be tampered with by anyone anymore. Every time when eating, Toru Watanabe can always remember her good points. Haruka Hoshimi can be said to have improved his favorability invisibly.

As for Saotome, who was eating with Noriko, Watanabe just thought she was there to eat for free.

Saotome Hazuki can, dares to, and wants to get everything, except, of course, Watanabe Tetsuya.

However, considering that Saotome had made no contributions but had worked hard, Watanabe at least liked her.

With the presence of Tetsuya Watanabe himself, the originally normal and harmonious chat atmosphere disappeared. Before the meal, no one could bring up a topic to arouse everyone's desire to chat. While eating, people pay attention to not talking, and everyone just concentrates on eating their own food.

Saotome Hazuki was so bored watching this. She had been secretly observing Yanagihara Nao, and saw that she was as obedient as a quail, not jumping when poked and ignoring when actively cueing her. Naturally, she felt bored.

The remaining Kurita-san and Takeshita-san couldn't cause any trouble at all, and Saotome Hazuki's wish to see Yanagihara Nao fail was completely shattered.

It only took half an hour to finish dinner.

Seeing that the five women all took out tissues to wipe their mouths tacitly, Watanabe stood up and walked to the window, pushed it open and looked out. The dark orange sunset dyed most of the sky red and was gradually dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Luckily it's still daylight. Now that you've finished eating, I'll take you back, okay?" Watanabe Toru didn't speak in a negotiating tone. After he finished speaking, he turned around and instructed Saotome Hazuki:

"Teacher Saotome, I can't spare some time later, so please accompany Noriko for a walk to help digest her food tonight."

Just like Watanabe Tetsuya's right-hand man, neither Noriko nor Saotome looked back this time with any questions or rejections, and both nodded in agreement.

Mayumi Kurita was unable to react and accept the reality that she would be leaving in the blink of an eye. She looked at Nao Yanagihara for help, only to see her dodging, while Sakura Takeshita would always just stand behind her, as useless as an invisible man.

Looking at the calm eyes of Mr. Watanabe standing at the door, Mayumi Kurita had no choice but to resign herself to her fate and walk out of the Japanese-style room. The incandescent lights on the corridor were dimly lit, making the surroundings seem like daytime.

When Mayumi Kurita heard teacher Watanabe asking about the attic where her best friend Takeshita was temporarily staying, she stared at the man's shadow in the corridor, feeling unwillingness in her heart.

She followed reluctantly, enduring the meaningful looks of the passing priestess along the way, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Realizing that she would soon have to go back to the Japanese-style room where she and her best friend Takeshita were staying, Mayumi Kurita knew that if she continued to remain silent, she would never have the chance to meet or talk to Mr. Watanabe again in her life!
"Teacher Watanabe!" The suppressed voice shouted out. Mayumi Kurita felt very brave. She clenched her fists, her body trembling slightly, and she continued:
"Mayumi has something to say... to Mr. Watanabe. Can you give Mayumi a chance to talk in private?"

"Well, OK." Watanabe Tetsuya immediately agreed to the girl's request and turned to look at Yanagihara Nao who was silent at the side: "Then Yanagihara-san will take Takeshita-san home first, okay?"

When Nao Yanagihara was called, she shuddered all over and quickly said yes. She had finally found an opportunity to get away from Tetsuya Watanabe, and she was not going to miss it.

She really felt uncomfortable staying next to Watanabe Tetsuya. Nao Yanagihara grabbed Takeshita Sakura's hand and walked away quickly, without any sign of the arrogance of a young lady.

Mayumi Kurita was stunned. This was not the Nao Yanagihara she remembered!

"Kurita-san wanted to tell me something."

When he heard that he was addressed as Kurita-san, and that his tone was not as gentle as usual, Watanabe-sensei's extremely calm tone made Kurita-sensei's nose sore that he almost burst into tears.

She spoke with a tearful tone: "From now on, from now on...will Mayumi be able to see Mr. Watanabe again?"

"Yes." Watanabe Tetsuya gave her the answer she wanted most. "Huh...? Really!?"

The unexpected answer stopped Mayumi Kurita's tears from falling, and they were sucked back together with the snot in her nose. The girl's eyes were sparkling, like stars that were about to appear in the evening and shine brightly in the sky.

Watanabe nodded again, to prevent her from being too happy too soon, and said: "I have a suggestion for Kurita-san. Can you leave the shrine with Takeshita-san tonight and go back to Tokyo? I will arrange the car.

“As long as Kurita-san nods his agreement, I can send you away right now.

"This is a very important matter. Please think about it carefully before telling the teacher the answer, Kurita-san."

It was a complete reversal of opposites. Mayumi Kurita didn't understand why it suddenly became like this. She just murmured, "...Why?"

"If I have to explain why... let's go back to the question Kurita-san asked me at the beginning.

"Will we be able to meet again in the future?
“Yes, maybe at some unknown day and place in the future, we will meet by coincidence.

"But it definitely won't be as premeditated as this time."

At this point, Watanabe Tetsuya sighed softly: "Kurita-san, I hope that our meeting again is really a coincidence, and not that you are trying to find ways to see me."

"Teacher, I'm not...!"

"I know this wasn't Kurita's original intention, but Yanagihara's. So do you understand why the teacher is so anxious to get you and Takeshita back to Tokyo tonight?"

Mayumi Kurita, who had been twirling her fingers with her head down, looked up after hearing this and asked in confusion and uncertainty, "Is it because of... the invitation to tomorrow's party?"

Tomorrow's party, and what Yanagihara Nao has always said, "The real appearance of Mr. Watanabe"...

Mayumi Kurita thought of the temptation that Nao Yanagihara whispered in her ear.

"The right to choose and the right to decide are in the hands of Kurita and Takeshita. The teacher is just giving you a suggestion and will not force you to make a choice.

"But... Sensei hopes that you will be obedient and leave the shrine tonight.

"It's enough, and we will definitely have the chance to meet again in the future."

Watanabe Tetsuya has said this, and he feels that he has done enough.

This was his last piece of advice, and Watanabe would not waste any more words on it. After all, it was difficult to persuade a damned ghost with kind words.

If Mayumi Kurita and Sakuro Takeshita insist on staying, then no matter what happens afterwards, Toru Watanabe will no longer regard them as his female students, but will classify them as the evil girl camp of Nao Yanagihara.

The last bit of sunset had completely set, and darkness fell over the shrine. It was pitch black outside the temple complex, and only the interior of the shrine was illuminated by lights.

Tetsuya Watanabe and Mayumi Kurita stood between the street lamp and the hardwood tree. His and her shadows overlapped with the shadows of the tree, and were swallowed up and merged together, indistinguishable from each other.

The man and the girl looked at each other silently, and the final answer was about to come out.

“It’s too late and too rushed to leave tonight… Sensei, Mayumi still has a lot of things to pack.

"Besides, Mayumi is very tired now. She wants to go back and take a hot bath and then lie down on the bed and fall asleep immediately. She doesn't want to do anything else.

"If we go back to Tokyo... can we go back during the day?"

This is Mayumi Kurita's answer.

After the girl finished speaking calmly, she no longer dared to look into the eyes of the man she loved most. She shifted her gaze to look at the shadow on the ground and subconsciously raised her hand to comb the shoulder-length hair by her ears.

Any failure to agree completely means an absolute rejection, and any slight refusal means an absolute rejection.

After all, where do all those excuses come from? It's too late, and I'm too tired. If I really want to leave and listen to Tetsuya Watanabe, I will definitely leave without saying anything.

Mayumi Kurita has made her choice.

"I understand. Kurita-san, go back to bed early. I'll drop you off here."

Nodding, Watanabe Toru didn't say any more words and turned and left.

Mayumi Kurita subconsciously reached out to grab and grab, and opened her mouth to call the man, but found that she seemed to have no chance and no qualifications.

Regret?
Mayumi Kurita couldn't give herself an answer when she asked herself this question, but even if she chose to leave tonight, she would still drift away from Teacher Watanabe in the end.

But as long as you stay, no matter what method you use, as long as you stay behind Nao Yanagihara, then everything is possible.

What's more, there is tomorrow's party, and the "real Watanabe teacher" lingering in her ears, and Mayumi Kurita also wants to see it.

So she will not regret her choice!

◆

On his way back, Toru Watanabe looked up at the sky, where he could vaguely see stars as dazzling as diamonds.

Toru Watanabe also thought of Natsumi Ozawa back then. She also did not listen to his advice and would not turn back until she hit the wall.

So in the end, although Ozawa Natsumi repented in time and kept her original intention, she ended up losing her life...

Tonight is the last chance to leave the shrine and escape from all the whirlpools, but Mayumi Kurita refused. Her final outcome is foreseeable.

Either you degenerate and become one with the evil women, or you become a similar flower and follow the path of Natsumi Ozawa.

No matter which of these two endings it is, it is not what Toru Watanabe wants to see.

But Mayumi Kurita refused and chose to take this direction at the turning point in her life. What else could Toru Watanabe say?

She had already refused, she asked for it.

Watanabe Toru shook his head and ignored her. In the future, he would show no mercy and would treat all the evil women equally.

However, whether it was Tetsuya Watanabe, Mayumi Kurita, or Nao Yanagihara, they did not consider Takeshita Sakurai's thoughts, and subconsciously ignored the fact that Takeshita Sakurai should have the right to make her own choices.

Takeshita Saki is as insignificant as the fireflies that have long been extinct in the shrine. No one has ever cared about her opinion... (End of this chapter)
