Tokyo Love Story

People will eventually be trapped throughout their lives by the things they could not obtain when they were young.

Morishima Yukisa unconsciously clenched her back teeth, then loosened them, "I'm not worthy of you doing this."

The moment this sentence came out of her mouth, Yukisa Morishima already began to regret it.

She knew very well what she meant by saying this. Equating oneself with certain things or making comparisons was stupid behavior. Firstly, it was inappropriate, and secondly, when people asked questions like this, they actually had expectations in their hearts. If they got the answer they wanted, it would be fine. But if they didn't get the answer they wanted, all they would have left was self-pity.

If you don’t have expectations, you won’t be disappointed.

What's more, in Yukisa Morishima's heart, she has always believed that as long as she doesn't get it, she won't lose it.

"You're wrong." Beichuan Che chuckled softly, his tone gentle, "After all... we are partners. Even though it's only for a period of time, it's only natural for us to help each other."

"Can……"

Yukisa Morishima wanted to say something.

"There's nothing to be sure of." Beichuan Che interrupted the girl, considered his words, and said the second half of his sentence, "Many things are never worth it or not, it's just whether you are willing to do it or not. In this matter, for me, I am happy to do it this way.

"So, do you understand what I mean?"

"I……"

Yukisa Morishima lowered her eyebrows, and her inky black hair covered her face, and also covered her surging emotions that were about to overflow.

Under the cold light, there was a slight nasal tone in her voice.

"Thank you, thank you."

Beichuan Che did not respond, but patted her shoulder gently.

He knew that she didn't want him to look at her at this time.

Suddenly, the cold lights in the corridor seemed to soften.

Thank you for the monthly ticket. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Chapter 118 Don’t want to go home

Tokyo is still brightly lit after dark.

Under a light bright enough to illuminate the night, the contours of the high-rise buildings in the steel forest were outlined, and the bright advertising signs mixed with the noisy voices. The prosperity and bustle of the city's nightlife was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

Beichuan's house, in the living room.

Sitting on the couch, Kitaen Rinyin picked up the TV remote control and turned down the volume. Then she turned her head and looked at Ejima Miu. After choosing her words, she spoke to break the silence, "Did Che say how long it would take to get home?"

"Yes." Ejima Miao turned her head and met Kitaen Rin's gaze, and replied softly, "Master means that if it's fast, it will be around half past ten, and if it's slow, it may be eleven o'clock, but no matter what, we will definitely be home before eleven o'clock."

"He was going to record a song, and he said he would be back after he finished recording. Why did he take so long?"

Beiyuan Rinyin pursed her lips, withdrew her gaze, and complained in a low voice.

She knew that even the closest couples should give each other enough private space.

But even though she knew it, she just couldn't do it. Since five o'clock in the afternoon, she had already started to get anxious.

Especially after Beichuan Che sent a message at 5:42 that said, "I might be late home, just eat by yourselves.", her mood inevitably became depressed.

She was the one cooking today, and she prepared many dishes that Beichuan Che liked.

It’s just that plans never seem to keep up with changes.

Because Kitagawa Tetsu was absent from this dinner that she had prepared with great effort, she and Ejima Tadashi ate in silence.

Even though the atmosphere between the two people was not awkward, it was still a little deserted compared to the liveliness of the past.

To take the half-joking, half-serious words that Ejima Takashi joked during the banquet, this is the best embodiment of the fact that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

"Maybe he encountered some unexpected situation." Ejima Tadashi quickly explained for his young master, "For example...well, he was not in good condition, the recording equipment had problems, etc. The young master is not the kind of person who likes to hang out outside, so please don't worry, Miss Rinone."

"I understand that, I just..."

Beiyuan Linyin wanted to say something but stopped for a moment, then shook her head and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

"Just hope that the young master will come home on time, right?"

Ejima Tae secretly glanced at Kitaen Rin and immediately knew what the eldest lady of the Kitaen family wanted to say.

"Yes."

Kitayuan Rinyin nodded somewhat gloomily, she raised her eyebrows and her eyes fell on the TV program in front of her.

Obviously, the show being broadcast was still the evening drama they usually watched, but for some reason, she suddenly lost her previous interest and felt it was boring.

"Do you feel nostalgic?" Ejima Miao sat closer to Kitaen Rinyin, "There are always times like this when uncle and aunt are having a meal. Auntie cooks a table full of delicious dishes, but before uncle can even pick up a few chopsticks, the phone rings.

"Yes, Auntie can understand that Uncle is busy with work, and she won't really complain about anything, but there will still be a little bit of resentment in her eyes, right?"

At this point, Ejima Tadashi paused, with a thoughtful look on his face. "If I were to put it into words, it would probably be something like 'Is there anything that can't be discussed after dinner?'"

"Mom usually tells me." Kitaen Rinyin took over the conversation, following the tone of Kitaen Risa in her memory, and said, "Can't we put work aside for now? That's what she usually says."

"Now, does Aunt still say that?"

Ejima Mia asked with a little curiosity. She could guess that Kitaen Risa would do such a thing.

After all, the impression that Kitazono Risa left on her at the beginning was that of a woman who was different from the traditional Yamato Nadeshiko, and had a bit of the flavor of a strong woman who was fierce and aggressive. Later, with the gradual development of the Kitazono family's business, this strong woman became quiet and chose to stay at home.

"No more." Beiyuan Rinyin shook her head. "I only complained like this when I was in elementary school. Now, except for private numbers, Dad won't answer calls during mealtimes."

"Because uncle has muted his phone?"

Ejima Myo tilted his head and raised a possibility.

"No, because my mother has informed the company." Kitaen Risa blinked, "If it's not urgent, don't call during mealtime."

Hearing this, Ejima Myo thought about the way Kitazono Masahiro and Kitazono Risa got along with each other, and nodded thoughtfully.

The way that couple got along was basically the same as that of the late Kitagawa couple. They were husband and wife, lovers, and like-minded friends.

After thinking for a while, Kitaen Rinyin added, "At the company, there are quite a few uncles and aunts who worked together in the past, and my mother has a lot of shares and a management position in the company, so..."

Ejima Miu nodded as if she understood, and at the same time prayed secretly for her young master in her heart.

If this continues in the future, my young master will probably have to face the same situation.

"But then again." Beiyuan Linyin's expression eased a little, "Miao, has Che told you about his future plans?"

"As for that, no." Ejima Mia shook her head. In her impression, Kitagawa Che had at most mentioned jokingly that he wanted to make money. Apart from that, he had not mentioned any other more specific plans.

"Is this so..."

Kitaen Rinyin nodded thoughtfully and returned her gaze to the TV screen.

She was still absent-minded.

But given the current situation, the only option left for her was to watch TV and wait.

*

When I came out of the clinic, it was already 10:05 in the evening.

The night breeze was cool, and Yukisa Morishima, who was sleeping soundly on Kitagawa Che's back, was much better than when she first arrived.

Walking to the street, Beichuan Che shook his shoulders gently, trying to wake the girl up, but the response he got was not her slow murmur as she woke up, but a nasal, slightly dissatisfied, "hmm~" in a coquettish voice.

There was no other way, Beichuan Che could only stand on the street with his back to the person, under the light of the city street lamps, waiting for the night taxi that would suddenly appear on the street corner).

In fact, he didn't have to wait too long. In less than two minutes, a taxi turned from a nearby intersection and stopped in front of the two men.

"The car is here, get in, and I'll take you home."

Kitagawa Che reminded Morishima Yukisa on his back, then squatted down.

Morishima Yukisa, who was on the verge of half asleep and half awake, nodded, consciously loosened her arms around Kitagawa Che's neck, got off him, and then got into a taxi with his support.

After the two of them were seated and the car door was closed, Kitagawa Che first gave the driver an apologetic look that said "wait a moment", then turned around and looked at Morishima Yukisa, whose head had unconsciously rested on his shoulder and who had fallen into a light sleep.

He reached out his hand and gently shook her shoulders, and asked quietly, "Where is your home? I'll take you back."

After the words fell, Yukisa Morishima, who was in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Her originally relaxed expression suddenly became ugly. She shook her head vigorously as if trying to escape a nightmare, and her slightly cold voice was full of resistance, "Home? I don't want to go back to that cold place where I'm alone."

At 10:09 p.m. on Tuesday, Kitagawa Che, who was sitting in the back seat of a taxi, looked at Morishima Yukisa who fell into a coma again after saying this. For the first time, he felt what it meant to be caught in a dilemma.

The driver sitting in the front seat raised his eyebrows and looked at Beichuan Che through the rearview mirror in the car.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

But in the end, he closed his mouth and chose silence.

These things are not something that a driver like him should worry about.

Thank you to teachers Dongmen Linyu for their monthly tickets. Your support is my motivation for writing.

It's only April, and the weather is fickle. It's sunny, there's thunder, there's rain, there's silence, and most importantly, it's hot.

Chapter 119 I'm jealous! [3K6 middle chapter]

"So, who is this?"

At the entrance, Kitaen Rin looked at Morishima Yukisa on Kitagawa Che's back, and the smile on her face suddenly cooled.

Even though she could see that nothing had happened between her fiancé and this classmate, she still instinctively wanted to get the answer she wanted from Beichuan Che.

Because you care too much, you will be so worried. Even if it is 90% certain, you will still worry about gains and losses.

"I have a fever." Beichuan Che met Beiyuan Linyin's blue eyes. The beautiful eyes that used to be calm and deep like the shallow sea were now rippling. Her beautiful face was now full of seriousness. He thought for a moment and added in a natural tone, "She fell asleep after the infusion."

He could more or less sense that what Beiyuan Rinyin needed at this moment was not the detailed ins and outs of the incident, but a concise summary that could put her at ease.

"So... you took so long because you were accompanying her for the IV?"

Kitaen Rinyin shifted her gaze and fell on Morishima Yukisa, who was breathing evenly and sleeping peacefully. A hint of complexity flashed across her bright eyes.

The shirt I prepared for someone was put on this classmate.

"Yes."

Beichuan Che nodded and gave an affirmative answer.

Kitayuan Rinyin turned sideways and made way.

This means that the girl’s doubts have come to an end for the time being.

And Ejima Tadashi, who was waiting on the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

The relieved attendant hurriedly came behind Kitagawa Che and gently embraced Morishima Yukisa. After sending her young master a look that said "Leave Morishima to me", she easily picked up the latter in a princess hug and walked towards her room.

When the footsteps coming up the stairs gradually faded away, until the door closed with a creaking sound, the entrance of the Kitagawa family became quiet again.

call.

Beichuan Che exhaled a breath, moved his arms slightly, squatted down and changed into his slippers.

Beiyuan Linyin looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and opened her thin lips slightly, "Have you had dinner, Che?"

She originally wanted to show her girlish temper again, but after seeing the fatigue between Beichuan Che's eyebrows, those thoughts of throwing a tantrum were naturally suppressed by her.

"No."

Kitagawa Che shook his head honestly. He accompanied Morishima Yukisa for as long as she received intravenous fluids.

During the conversation with this classmate about intravenous infusion in the hospital, he felt a lot of things.

For example, Yukisa Morishima, who looks like a hedgehog, is actually a very insecure person.

It is precisely because of the lack of security that people do not want to be disappointed and habitually keep a distance from everyone, locking themselves behind the armor called "loner". By not contacting others, they naturally will not get hurt.

"Are you hungry?"

Beiyuan Rinyin's tone softened unconsciously, and there was a hint of obvious heartache in her beautiful eyes.

"A little bit." Beichuan Che looked at Beiyuan Rinyin and smiled comfortingly, "It's okay, actually. I can just make some rice porridge to fill my stomach."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step and walked towards the kitchen, intending to prepare a simple dinner for himself.

"I left dinner for you." Beiyuan Linyin grabbed his wrist and whispered, "I'll just heat it up for you."

Beichuan Che's step stopped in mid-air, and then fell back to the spot.

He suddenly thought that Beiyuan Linyin would be the chef tonight, and the girl had asked him mysteriously this morning if he was ready for the surprise.

It was obvious that Kitaen Rin had put a lot of effort into tonight's dinner.
