My new wife discovered my past.

"If that's the case, why did you come to provoke me in the first place!?"

'I am living happily and freely on my own! ! ! '

Unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable! Absolutely absolutely... unforgivable!

But now, in the dark rainy night, with the incandescent lights in the corridor, Matsumoto Hitomi saw clearly the shrinking eyes of Miyagawa Lu, as pitiful as a drowned kitten, and saw her slightly trembling lips wanting to open, but then as if she thought of something, she closed her mouth and looked away, not daring to look at the tall figure standing two meters in front of her.

Hitomi Matsumoto's heart was being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand, her chest could not move up and down, and she had difficulty breathing.

"What are you...doing here?

"You idiot... since you're already here, why don't you just go into my apartment? I gave you the key, didn't I...

"Why didn't you call me? What's the point of staying here?

"What would you do if I wasn't careful enough and overlooked you?"

Hitomi Matsumoto finally softened her heart. She couldn't just ignore the kitten squatting in the corner and getting wet!

“…Hitomi-chan! Uuuu… cough! Uuuuu…”

These words passed through her ears and fell into her heart. Miyagawa Lu finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She raised her tear-stained face and burst into tears again.

"Okay, okay... I'm here! I've always been here..." Matsumoto Hitomi trotted forward and squatted beside the woman, gently patting Miyagawa Lu's back. She patted and touched it, and her palms were full of water.

"Did you get caught in the rain all the way here, you idiot?" She helped Miyakawa Lu up without saying a word, "Go back to the apartment and take a hot shower first! Otherwise, you'll catch a cold if you stay here for a while."

"Okay...Hitomi-chan, thank you..."

"Stop talking like that. I don't want to hear it."

Hitomi Matsumoto's apartment has always been stocked with Miyagawa Tsuyoshi's daily necessities, including slippers, toothbrushes, toothbrush cups, towels and change of clothes.

Before Miyagawa Roshi and Kurosawa Ryosuke started dating, she would often come to Matsumoto Hitomi's apartment to spend the night on weekends. Over time, in order to make her life more convenient, Matsumoto Hitomi bought her some daily necessities.

Similarly, Miyagawa Tsuya also prepared daily necessities for her friend Matsumoto Hitomi in the small apartment she rented.

However, since Miyagawa Lu and Kurosawa Ryosuke officially started dating last month, Matsumoto Hitomi has never been to her apartment again, with only Miyagawa Lu coming once.

Matsumoto Hitomi also wanted to take back the daily necessities she had used, but she never had the time to say it and never found a suitable opportunity.

After entering the apartment, she took a dry towel that was almost disposable and gave it to Miyagawa Lu to wipe her damp hair, forehead and neck. Matsumoto Hitomi went to get her pajamas and towel that had been washed and dried.

"Lu-chan, you haven't eaten yet, right?" Matsumoto Hitomi asked as she handed her some clean clothes.

Miyakawa Lu lowered her head, looked at the disposable towel in her hand that was wet and dry, and shook her head: "...Not yet."

"Then let's take a shower? Let's talk after we take a shower, okay? Warm up your body first, otherwise it's really easy to catch a cold, which is bad for your health."

It's bad for your health. Just this one sentence left Miyakawa Lu speechless. She thought of her current physical condition and nodded in agreement.

"There's no time to fill the bathtub with hot water now, Lu-chan, just take a shower first. Take a longer shower to get rid of all the coldness from tonight's rain."

"...Okay, I'll listen to you, Hitomi-chan."

"What do you want to eat, Lu-chan? Curry chicken rice or ramen? I'll go prepare it. It should be ready for you when you get out of the shower."

Matsumoto Hitomi walked with Miyagawa Lu and asked before going to the kitchen. She already had the answer in her mind. Miyagawa Lu loved to eat the noodles she made the most, so she decided to make ramen.

"No, don't bother! Hitomi-chan... I'll just eat some bread and drink some hot water!"

The better her friend treated her, the more guilty Miyagawa Lu felt when she thought about what she had done to her the day before.

So much so that she awkwardly began to bow to her best friend in front of the bathroom door, thanking her for taking her in, providing her with a hot bath and preparing dinner for her.

"What are you talking about and doing...Lu-chan." Matsumoto Hitomi walked up to her and hugged her gently. Because of the height difference, she was able to rest Miyagawa Lu's head on her chest and shoulders.

She said: “We are best friends.

“Best friend forever and forever.

"Lu-chan, please stop thinking and doing this, okay?"

Hitomi Matsumoto hugged Miyagawa Lu tightly, giving her the hug she wanted most in more than 20 years.

"Okay! Hitomi-chan...we'll be good friends forever!"

Matsumoto Hitomi let go, took a step or two back, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go make ramen~ Lu-chan, go take a shower quickly, don't waste time!"

It was half an hour later when Miyagawa Lu came out of the shower. Matsumoto Hitomi knew her shower time, so she prepared ramen on time.

Influenced by the ramen shop and the old lady in her childhood town, Matsumoto Hitomi has an almost crazy obsession with ramen, only slightly less than that of Watanabe Tetsuya.

The ramen she made has barbecued pork, but unlike boiled soft-boiled eggs, Matsumoto Hitomi either frys the eggs or puts them directly into the pan to cook. She also cuts some shredded meat as a side dish, making a bowl of ramen very rich.

The apartment that Hitomi Matsumoto rented was very small, with only one bathroom and kitchen. The bedroom, living room and dining room were all squeezed together. It was similar to the apartment that Tetsuya Watanabe rented back then, but the distribution pattern was different.

After taking a shower, Miyagawa Lu was called to the low table on the blanket beside the bed. The ramen on the table was emitting a hot and fragrant smell, which whetted her appetite. She swallowed unconsciously and her stomach began to growl.

Matsumoto Hitomi didn't laugh at her. She just let Miyagawa Lu sit down and eat ramen, while she held the hair dryer to dry the wet hair of the woman who was eating ramen.

It began to drizzle again in the dark night. The wind and rain gradually grew stronger, hitting the closed windows of the balcony, leaving streaks of rain.

Warm lights were on in the small apartment, and the air conditioner was blowing to remove excess moisture from the air.

A woman dressed like an urban beauty leaned on the bed with her legs crooked. She held a hair dryer and blew her hair carefully from roots to ends. Another woman wearing Hello Kitty cartoon pajamas lowered her head to eat ramen. Her voice was very quiet, and all the sound was covered by the noise of the hair dryer. As the soup of noodles slowly dried up, her wet hair slowly became refreshed and clean.

"Don't cry. It's embarrassing. If you cry again, don't rub your clothes against my clothes." Matsumoto Hitomi warned her.

"I'm not crying anymore! Don't look down on me, Hitomi-chan!"

"Okay, okay~"

Soon Matsumoto Hitomi dried Miyagawa Lu's long hair. After she was done, she sat on the bed and looked at the woman who had finished her ramen and was lying on the blanket. She asked her:

"So what happened between Lu-chan and Kurosawa-sensei? You can tell me now."

"How does Hitomi-chan know it's because of him..."

"Tsk, do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"

"Don't talk about me!"

"Okay~ I won't talk about you, just tell me what happened."

Miyagawa Lu was embarrassed again, not daring to look into Matsumoto Hitomi's eyes. She only whispered, "Before that, I have to confess something to Hitomi-chan, and then, um, say sorry..."

"Ah."

Miyagawa Lu didn't hear anything wrong in her friend's tone, nor did she understand what the word "hmm" meant. She just blurted out all her lies and deceptions on June 6st, then knelt down and bowed deeply to her friend to apologize.

Matsumoto Hitomi expected that Miyagawa Lu could be so stupid. Even if she didn't understand what she was saying, she should be able to subconsciously react from her tone after spending such a long time together, right?

But Miyagawa Lu didn't do that, and Matsumoto Hitomi knew it too, so although she felt sad and uncomfortable about her friend's confession and apology, what else could she do?

Miyagawa Lu has already entered her apartment and is lying beside her bed. What else can she do?

Of course I choose to forgive her!

Matsumoto Hitomi was too lazy to suggest to herself that she had already known about her deception and lies. It was like talking to a deaf person and would only make her emotions fluctuate.

She acted very magnanimous, saying that it would not happen again. Then she made fun of Gongchuan Lu a few words and helped her up, saying that the ground was cold and asked her to lie on the bed and continue talking.

Still frightened, Miyakawa Lu tilted her head in confusion, very puzzled: "It's summer now, and it's not cool to lie on the blanket..."

"You just got caught in the rain, and the blanket is still relatively thin, so it's easy for the cold air to penetrate your body."

The cold air entering her body made Miyakawa Lu concerned. She was now afraid, worried that taking a shower tonight would affect the baby in her belly, so she went to bed immediately.

"Now Lu-chan can tell us what happened between you and Mr. Kurosawa tonight."

Miyakawa Lu pursed her lips and thought for a while before finding the right words to get to the point: "Because...

"Yes, I am pregnant with his child."

Chapter 260 Miyagawa Lu's First Time

Pregnant...with his child?

The moment Miyagawa Lu finished speaking, Matsumoto Hitomi understood.

But we've only been dating for less than a month... no, if you count that drunken sex incident in mid-April, it's been a month and a half.

If it was that time, it is not impossible.

It worked in one go... What kind of fertility physique is this? The key point is, didn't I take the medicine after her persuasion? How did I get pregnant?

Hitomi Matsumoto didn't think that Miyagawa Lu was lying to her about her pregnancy, nor did she think that she had tricked herself into taking medicine a month and a half ago. Based on her friend's intelligence, Hitomi Matsumoto could roughly guess what was going on.

Miyakawa Lu must have bought the wrong medicine.

What she took afterwards should be emergency contraceptive pills. Miyakawa Lu was probably afraid when she bought the medicine at the pharmacy. She didn't dare to look the doctor in the eye, and her words were ambiguous and unclear, so the doctor was misled and gave her short-acting contraceptive pills or something like that...

After vaguely guessing the truth, Hitomi Matsumoto felt like the sky was falling.

It wasn't her sky that fell, but the sky that fell for her good friend Miyagawa Lu.

They got pregnant after being together for half a month. They are unmarried. Both of them are from small towns in the countryside. They have no fixed residence in Tokyo. Their assets and economic conditions are not good. Their relationship is currently unstable...

With all these labels attached, Matsumoto Hitomi seems to have seen the future of Miyagawa Tsuyoshi and Kurosawa Ryosuke.

Hitomi Matsumoto pursed her lips and looked at the woman who was lying on the bed with her legs bent and leaning against the wall. The other person felt her gaze and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at her, like a little girl who had done something wrong facing her strict mother. She only occasionally raised her eyes and glanced at her with wet deer eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.

Seeing her friend like this, Matsumoto Hitomi no longer dared to say anything harsh to Miyagawa Lu. All the words died on her lips, and she only let out a sigh...

Get married, get pregnant, and have children.

The normal course of life in the past is now being shunned by more and more people. The fertility rate in the island country continues to decline, and the number of newborns decreases year by year.

These are indisputable facts.

As for Hitomi Matsumoto personally, she is both willing and unwilling to have children.

The reason for her reluctance is simple: she doesn't want to have too much contact with men.

To the extent that she does envy the pure love in comics, movies and TV dramas, as well as the pure love relationships that start from high school that she sees on TikTok, but in reality, she doesn't think she can meet the destined man who truly loves her.

During her first three or four years in college, she had participated in social gatherings and cocktail parties, activities open to both male and female college students. Compared to their deliberate, glib and affected manners, who quickly fell in love with each other and confirmed their goals after a few drinks, Matsumoto Hitomi and a few other male and female students seemed old-fashioned and unromantic.

Hitomi Matsumoto still remembers one of the girls who had pigtails and looked rustic. It was probably her first time in Tokyo. When she saw her roommate and the handsome boy she had only met for less than an hour hugging each other and feeding each other wine in front of everyone at the social gathering, she was so shocked that she could stuff the wine into her mouth. They left amid the booing of the crowd. An hour later, photos and videos without showing their faces were leaked, and it turned out that they went to a love hotel.

Hitomi Matsumoto didn't know whether the country girl with pigtails was dazzled by the glamour and debauchery of Tokyo, and she didn't pay much attention to the specific situation.

What she heard and saw was that the girl with pigtails was pursued by a boy who was also at the social gathering that night, and she had three or four unhappy relationships.

When they met again for the second time, her pigtails had been permed and dyed into long burgundy curly hair, her face made up with makeup was delicate and beautiful, she was dressed fashionably, carrying a Chanel chain bag, and snuggling up to the man next to her who was also dressed fashionably and full of modernity.
