Maori Kogoro's daily life in the science harem

Chapter 207: Suzuki Ayako's Confession

Maori gently wiped the body of the unconscious Haibara Ai. Her face looked peaceful and tranquil.

The tough fight just now made Haibara Aika sweat profusely, and she almost used up all her strength.

Mauli looked at her with a hint of pity in his eyes, then pulled the quilt up, making sure she was properly wrapped in it.

He stood up quietly, walked out of the room with very light steps, and breathed a sigh of relief after closing the door.

Standing in the corridor, Maori relaxed a little, took out a cigarette, and planned to go downstairs to the living room to smoke a cigarette to relieve himself.

When Maori stepped into the living room, he was surprised to find Suzuki Ayako sitting alone on the sofa.

There was no light in the room, and the dim moonlight shone through the window onto her face, making her expression look sad and lonely.

Her hands were tightly clenched around a blanket, and her eyes showed deep sorrow.

Mao Li was slightly startled, put down the cigarette in his hand, and walked over gently.

"Ayako, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Suzuki Ayako looked up at him, tears glistening in the corners of her eyes.

She forced a smile, but it looked very weak: "I can't sleep... Too many things happened just now, and my mind can't stop."

Maoli sat down beside her and looked at her quietly without asking any questions.

He knew that she must be in a very complicated mood. The tragedy that happened during the day and the truth revealed behind it were like a heavy mountain pressing down on everyone's heart.

"I...I can't believe that Chikako would encounter something like this..."

Suzuki Ayako's voice was a little choked. She took a deep breath and held back her tears. "I always thought that everyone in the film club was a good friend... but now... everything has changed."

Mao Li listened quietly, patted her shoulder gently, and said comfortingly: "Ayako, don't blame yourself too much. This is not your fault."

Suzuki Ayako bit her lips tightly, as if she wanted to swallow all the pain, but she finally shed tears: "But...but if I had noticed Takahashi's changes earlier, maybe everything wouldn't have turned out like this..."

Mao Li looked at her and his heart sank slightly.

Ayako's pain was so real, and he knew that in the face of such a tragic event, no amount of self-blame or regret could change the facts.

"Some things are beyond our control."

“It’s important that we move forward and not dwell on the past.”

Maori patted Suzuki Ayako on the shoulder. How could this fragile girl who was as delicate as Yamato Nadeshiko bear such a painful ending?

Suzuki Ayako lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly, as if she was silently accepting Mori's words.

There was a complex emotion in the air, which seemed to include pain, regret, and a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, Mao Li didn't say anything more, but stayed with her, sitting there quietly, waiting for her to slowly calm down.

Suzuki Ayako wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised her head, and asked softly with a little hesitation: "Mr. Maori...can I borrow your chest...for a while?"

Maori was stunned for a moment, then he smiled softly.

Without hesitation, he opened his arms slightly and responded softly, "Of course."

He took the initiative to put his arm around Suzuki Ayako's shoulders and gently held her in his arms.

Her body stiffened for a moment, but then she relaxed and leaned against Maori's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat and the warm feeling of security.

Ayako could no longer control her emotions, and tears burst out like a flood.

She buried her face in Maori's chest, and tiny sobs accompanied by her tears soaked Maori's clothes.

It seemed like she had been accumulating grievances and pain for too long, and now, she was finally releasing them in this warmth.

Maori gently stroked her back with one hand and pressed her shoulder with the other, his movements gentle but powerful.

He said nothing, giving her enough time to vent her emotions.

Every time her body trembled from crying, Maori would hug her tighter, like a solid haven, quietly protecting her.

After a long time, Suzuki Ayako's crying gradually subsided.

Her tears seemed to have dried up, her breathing gradually became steady, and she relaxed in Maori's arms.

Suzuki Ayako raised her head and stared at Maori's face, and the words that had been buried in her heart for a long time quietly came to her mind.

"Mr. Maori..." Her voice was soft and gentle, and every word seemed to tremble a little.

Maori looked down at her and responded softly, "What's wrong, Ayako?"

Suzuki Ayako didn't say anything else, but just looked at him deeply, her eyes revealing a complex emotion, both attachment and struggle.

Then, with a sudden courage, she straightened up slightly and pressed her soft lips against Mauli's.

Maori was slightly surprised, but did not resist.

He felt Ayako's kiss was cautious yet mixed with endless emotions.

When Suzuki Ayako slowly left his lips, her face was already red.

She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look into Mao Li's eyes again, and said with a little trepidation: "Actually...actually I like you very much, Mr. Mao Li...since the first time we met..."

Ayako bit her lip, as if trying to decide how to express her feelings.

Her voice was filled with sadness and helplessness as she whispered, "But I know very well that as the daughter of the Suzuki Group, my future has already been arranged... My ultimate destiny is an arranged marriage. For the sake of my family and the company, my marriage and love are destined to be indecisive..."

She raised her head, tears in her eyes: "I know it's impossible for us. I can only give up my love."

Mao Li frowned slightly and said, "That's all bullshit. What consortium, what family? Love is something you have to fight for yourself! If you really like someone, why don't you fight for yourself once? Are you willing to let these empty things control your life?"

Suzuki Ayako was stunned for a moment. She looked at Maori and felt touched, but then she shook her head and sighed, "Mr. Maori, you don't understand..."

"I have enjoyed all the wealth, status and honor brought by the Suzuki Group since I was a child. These are realities that I cannot resist. I can confide in you here, but I cannot deny my responsibilities. I must give back to my family and fulfill my obligations."

There was an inescapable helplessness and self-identification in her words. Maori looked at her eyes which gradually became calm. He could feel the pain and conflict in Suzuki Ayako's heart, and he knew that no matter how much he said at this moment, he could not change her decision.

Suzuki Ayako is a person with a strong sense of responsibility. She is willing to sacrifice her own happiness for her family. The most fundamental problem is not to deal with Suzuki Ayako, but to deal with the huge Suzuki Group!

Suzuki Ayako slowly stood up, tears flashed in her eyes, but she forced herself not to cry anymore.

She whispered, "Thank you, Mr. Maori...I appreciate your words today, but this feeling...I can't continue."

After saying that, she turned around quickly, as if she was escaping from something, and ran out of the room almost in a panic.

Maori squinted his eyes and looked at Suzuki Ayako's back. He decided that after he got down from the mountain, he would go back to the Suzuki Group and give Suzuki Tomoko a good scolding!

Chapter 208: Submission and Domination

The villa was illuminated by the sun in the early morning, but the haze from the previous night seemed not to have completely dissipated.

The sudden bursts of engine sounds broke the tranquility of the mountains. A large number of luxury cars were slowly climbing up the mountain. The bright and beautiful convoy was particularly eye-catching against the morning light.

The Suzuki Group obviously did not delay and directly sent a large group of people.

The workers quickly began to repair the suspension bridge that was cut last night, and a team of uniformed police officers followed and took the helpless Takahashi Ryoichi into the police car.

He was pale and bowed his head weakly, no longer struggling. Hiroki Kadaya and Katsuya Ota followed the police car and left, seemingly still not fully recovered from the shock of last night.

At the same time, Suzuki Ayako and Suzuki Sonoko walked towards the luxury car on the other side.

The Suzuki family seemed to have arranged everything. The two were picked up in the car and prepared to go back to deal with the follow-up matters.

Maori held Haibara Ai in one hand, who seemed unusually dependent after what happened last night.

Haibara Ai curled up in Maori's arms like a lazy kitten, occasionally gently raising her head to look at Maori's face, her eyes revealing a deep attachment and tenderness.

On the other side, Xiaolan watched this scene. Although she didn't say anything, she felt a little sour in her heart.

She couldn't ignore Haibara Ai's sudden intimacy, and couldn't help feeling a little jealous.

Conan seemed a little helpless, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and sighed softly. He looked around, as if he wanted to get rid of this strange atmosphere as soon as possible.

Just as they were about to leave the villa, several luxury cars suddenly drove up and blocked their way.

The car door opened, and a woman with elegant temperament and gorgeous clothes slowly walked out of the car.

Her eyes were sharp and majestic, undoubtedly revealing an aura that should not be underestimated.

"Suzuki Tomoko?"

Maori raised an eyebrow.

Okay, I haven’t come to find you yet, but you came to me on your own, right?

I see you are really itchy.

Suzuki Tomoko walked towards Maori, her eyes swept between him and Haibara Ai, and then lingered on Xiaolan and Conan for a moment.

Her expression was calm, but there was a hint of scrutiny in her eyes. Then she nodded slightly, as if she approved of Maori's performance last night.

"Mr. Maori, please come back to the Suzuki family with us first."

Suzuki Tomoko's tone was steady, yet it carried an authority that could not be refused.

In front of outsiders, Suzuki Tomoko still has to act like the hostess, even though she is like a little puppy in front of Mori.

"Row."

Maori hugged Haibara Ai tightly in his arms and nodded.

The Suzuki family's convoy started again, carrying Maori, Haibara Ai, Xiaolan and Conan towards the Suzuki family.

……

The Suzuki family mansion was as grand and exquisite as ever, and it looked particularly brilliant in the morning sun.

Suzuki Tomoko led Mori and his party into the house. The housekeeper and several maids immediately came forward, politely greeted them and guided them to the bathing and resting area.

"Please go take a shower first. You must be exhausted from your experiences in the villa. We will discuss in detail what happened in the villa tonight."

The housekeeper spoke gently and respectfully, her eyes lingering on Maori for a moment, and she understood.

The previous butler did nothing wrong but was suddenly fired and then replaced by himself.

Judging from the fragmentary words from some maids, it seems that the mistress has a man she likes, which is why she is unwilling to hire a butler.

The moment she saw Maori, the housekeeper made up her mind.

"Ai-chan, then you come and take a shower with me~"

Xiaolan took the somewhat reluctant Haibara Ai from Maori's arms and followed a maid to an elegantly decorated pond.

Decorated with sparkling gemstones and warm lighting, the pool exudes a sense of tranquility and luxury.

The maid gently arranged Xiaolan and Haibara Ai to the edge of the pool. Warm steam rose from the surface of the water, gradually dissolving their fatigue in the water.

Conan was also taken to another place. After all, it was a big consortium and they did things meticulously.

Maori was led to a very private pool, the whole space was very exquisitely decorated. Maori leaned against the pool, closed his eyes, and the warm water gently surrounded him. His body and mind were deeply relaxed in this moment of tranquility.

Feeling the warmth and gentle massage of the water, his fatigue gradually disappeared.

At this time, the bathroom door was gently pushed open, and Suzuki Tomoko walked in with only a bath towel and slightly red cheeks.

Her proud expression now seemed a little shy, and the blush on her face formed a sharp contrast with her usual majesty.

In front of outsiders, Suzuki Tomoko always maintains her noble and indifferent attitude.

However, in front of Maori, she showed a completely different side.

Tomoko Suzuki gently took off her bath towel and slowly walked into the pool. The water surface rippled slightly, reflecting her slender figure.

"Let me rub your back, Mr. Maori~"

Suzuki Tomoko said in a soft tone, her voice full of charm and submissiveness.

She came behind Maori, applied shower gel on herself, then pressed against Maori's back and began to carefully wipe Maori's body with herself.

"Mr. Maori, I was very touched by your performance yesterday."

Suzuki Tomoko held herself carefully and rubbed Maori's back, saying earnestly, "If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to Ayako and Sonoko..."

Mao Li felt her caring care, glanced sideways slightly, and pinched her chin.

"Pengzi, tell me, who will listen to whom between us?"

Suzuki Tomoko's eyes widened instantly. She felt Maori's strength and powerful aura.

Her heartbeat accelerated dramatically and her face turned a deep red.

Although Maori was quite rude, an indescribable excitement surged in her heart.
