Tokyo: The Beginning of the Gauze Female Devil

"Of course, we don't need to push him too hard to prevent him from getting into trouble."

"We just need to achieve the goal of maintaining our studies, and the 50 million yen we owe him will be slowly repaid in the future."

After hearing what her eldest daughter Shimizu Rin said, Momonogi Eiko remained silent. Her mature and beautiful face showed a thoughtful expression, as if she was estimating the feasibility of this method.

At this moment, the girl's clear and resolute voice came to my ears again.

"No!" Shimizu Ai raised her voice and shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately attracted the attention of his mother Momonogi Eiko and his sister Shimizu Rin.

Shimizu Ai looked at her biological sister Shimizu Rin with strange eyes. She couldn't believe that her sister, who was usually arrogant and cold but loved her so much, would try every means to put her in a desperate situation in order to save her studies.

Moreover, this method of false accusation seems somewhat familiar...

"What's wrong again?" Qingshui Rin raised her beautiful long and slender willow-shaped eyebrows.

"Ai Yi, are you feeling sorry for him?"

"He wants to send my mother to jail and threaten us two school dropouts!"

"I...I didn't..." Shimizu Ai turned her head away guiltily.

It is obvious that at this moment, if I just stand unconditionally on the side of my mother and sister and stand firm with them, I will feel better.

But whenever the handsome face of Fujii Itsuki flashed through her mind, and she thought of his disappointed eyes and cold tone, Shimizu Ai's heart couldn't help but ache.

It seems like I am reminding myself every moment: You can't do it!

Chapter 143 At this moment

"Then why not?"

Hearing this, Qing Shuilin's brows relaxed slightly.

Although her younger sister is a little lively and playful, she grew up with her. Even if she is soft-hearted and sympathizes with Fujii Itsuki's situation, she will only side with them in the end.

Hearing her sister Shimizu Rin's questioning voice, Shimizu Ai lowered her head awkwardly, staring at her small feet wrapped in white stockings and organized her words for a while.

"Because..." She fiddled with her two tender and slender fingers and said embarrassedly, "Because Ai Yi has already used this method."

"Used it?!" Momonogi Eiko, the mother, shouted in surprise. After she realized what was happening, she quickly pulled her daughter over.

"Are you okay, Ai?"

"Is Xiaoshu okay with you?" She held Shimizu Ai's cute little face in her hands and looked around, her eyes full of worry.

Although her eldest daughter, Shimizu Rin, has always been her pride and the one in whom she has invested the most resources, Momonogi Eiko, like most parents, actually prefers her lively and lovely younger daughter in her heart, but she rarely shows it.

"No, don't worry, Mom..."

"Nissan didn't touch me at all." Shimizu Ai blinked.

“I didn’t touch it at that time…”

"That's good! That's good!"

Momonogi Eiko visibly breathed a sigh of relief and said "That's good" twice in a row.

"Ai, what's going on?" Shimizu Rin was also worried about her sister and started to ask.

"That's it..." Shimizu Ai grasped the corner of her school uniform skirt.

"Once my pocket money ran out, I had the idea of using Nissan's salary."

"However, not only did Nissan not show any interest in it, he also found an opportunity to secretly record the incident."

Shimizu Ai naturally omitted the key details of "begging for mercy" and "actively applying to be an undercover agent".

"If Onei-chan wants to frame Nissan, when Nissan releases the recording, Ai will also go to jail..."

"Ai, you..." Hearing her sister Shimizu Ai's words of sabotage, Shimizu Rin showed a hint of frustration for the first time.

"Ugh--"

"As long as everyone is alright."

She rarely sighed deeply in front of her mother and sister.

For a moment, I felt helpless.

Neither "bribing with benefits" nor "framing" has the possibility of success. Should I just accept my fate and listen to Fujii Itsuki and drop out of school?

"No!"

"Absolutely not!"

Qing Shui Lin's pearly teeth almost bit through her lower lip, and her slender hands were clenched tightly.

"From an ordinary high school in Kanagawa Prefecture to a top private university in Tokyo, I don't know how much effort it took!"

"How can you give up so easily?!"

For some reason, the pretty face of Matsumoto Arina, with a dagger hidden behind her smile, emerged in her mind, and she recalled the words she had said when she mocked her.

And the box of eclairs that she had rejected.

"Oh--"

"My connection turned out to be right."

"Mom..." Shimizu Rin looked at her mother Momonogi Eiko and was silent for several seconds with no intention of speaking again.

Just from this one glance, it was as if the mother and daughter had a telepathic connection, and Momonogi Eiko read a lot of key information from it.

"Ai, go back to your room and rest first." She turned to look at her little daughter, Shimizu Ai.

"Rin is right. You don't have to worry about this as a kid. Mom and sister will take care of it."

"Go back, Ai." Shimizu Rin also echoed.

Seeing that her mother and sister were trying to drive her out, Shimizu Ai wanted to retort that she had grown up, or to put on a shameless face and act good so that she could continue to stay there.

But when she caught a glimpse of the stern looks in their eyes, the little thoughts in Shimizu Ai's chest were extinguished as if a basin of cold water was poured on her.

"Okay, I get it now……"

She said "oh" reluctantly, stepped out of her mother Momonogi Eiko's bedroom with her slender legs wrapped in white over-the-knee socks.

"Click——"

Shimizu Ai reached out and gently closed the door.

"Da da da."

She deliberately made her footsteps louder and pretended to leave. Then she rolled her eyes, tiptoed back, and put her ear to the door.

In the bedroom, the atmosphere seemed to become even more stagnant after Shimizu Ai left.

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Momonogi Eiko knew what Shimizu Rin was thinking, so she spoke first: "Rin, do you know?"

"When mom brought you and Ai to Tokyo, sent you to a private high school, and asked you to apply for a prestigious university, it was to prevent you from following mom's old path!"

"Mom is a great person. She takes good care of me and Ai. I don't think there is anything wrong with this path." Shimizu Rin's face was calm, and she was not moved at all by Momonogi Eiko's words.

In private, he pinched the slightly trembling slender hand at the cuff of his coat.

"Rin, the situation now is different from what it was like back then." Momonogi Eiko gently stroked her aching forehead with her hand.

"It's essentially the same..." Qing Shui Lin replied calmly.

"It's different..." Momonogi Eiko shook her head and told the story of the past.

"Xiao Shu's father and I met at a dating market. Since we got along well, we wanted to try to get along with each other."

"There is no love between him and me. I just want to find someone to share the burden of raising my daughter so that the living conditions of the three of us can be improved a little bit."

"…At this moment, it's just like that moment!" Shimizu Rin raised her voice and looked into the eyes of her mother Momonogi Ei: "Now, I also want the lives of the three of us to be easier!"

"Rin..." Momonogi Eiko's eyes were dim. She knew that what her eldest daughter Shimizu Rin had decided could never be changed, so she felt even more painful in her heart.

"You want to be like your mother and find someone with good conditions to marry and share the pressure."

"But……"

"For a mother, what's the difference between this and selling her daughter?"

Momonogi Eiko's eyes suddenly turned red.

"Then find someone more reliable, preferably someone you like..."

"Has anyone chosen yet?"

"Why not just forget it? Few families are willing to take on a debt of 50 million yen."

"Yes!" Qingshui Lin said firmly.

Chapter 144 How many times has this happened?

Outside the door, Shimizu Ai widened her eyes slightly and covered her mouth tightly with her hands to prevent herself from making any sound.

"Mom, sister..."

“And Onii-chan…”

It seemed as if another scale was placed in front of her, and she had to make a choice.

Shimizu Ai's eyes flickered, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Half a minute later, she raised her petite body and slowly left the door.

……

A few steps away, in Fujii Itsuki's room.

"call--"

A high-powered hair dryer was blaring.

Just when Momonogi Eiko and her two daughters were in dire straits and at the end of their rope, and had made all kinds of stupid decisions, Fujii Itsuki remained calm and took a comfortable hot bath.

“…It’s about time.”

After turning off the hair dryer, Fujii Itsuki glanced at the time on his mobile phone screen and found that half an hour had passed.

This amount of time was enough for Momonogi Eiko to tell her two daughters all the news.

so……

Fujii Itsuki curled the corners of his mouth and turned his gaze towards the door, in the direction of Momonogi Eiko's bedroom.

"Click——"

Just as he was putting the hair dryer into the drawer and standing up from the chair, he suddenly heard the sound of the door lock turning.

With a slight sound, a short and petite girl walked into the room.

"Click." The girl turned her back to him and gently closed the door.

Then he turned around, revealing a cute little face that still had childishness.

"Nissan..." She lowered her head timidly and looked at Fujii Itsuki with a pair of clear and crystal eyes.

It seemed that the October night was too cool, and Qingshui Ai's delicate body swayed slightly.

"What does it mean?"

Fujii Itsuki looked at Shimizu Ai who had suddenly visited him.

He showed a half-smile, then stretched out his hand to Shimizu Ai and said, "Come here, let me see."

Hearing Fujii Itsuki's voice, Shimizu Ai's heart skipped a beat. Thinking that Onii-chan was going to accept her, she took a step forward and walked over happily.

"Tsk..." Fujii Itsuki made a "tsk" sound and gently rubbed Shimizu Ai's tender face full of collagen with his hands.

"Why do you look so pitiful?"

Looking at the tear marks and aggrieved expression on her face, Fujii Itsuki seemed to understand something, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"I guess my mother and sister abandoned me as an abandoned child."

"Go back..." He let go of her hand, and his tone softened a little.

"Instead of pushing you over here, I'd rather have them both kneel in front of me and beg me."
