However, she did not feel any of the feeling of "it's lonely at the top", but only felt that the boundless pressure seemed to crush her body.

"Miss..." Xiao Lai, who was making the bed for Matsumoto Arina behind him, called out softly.

"Why don't you go home and sleep?"

"I can drive over to pick you up after you get off work every day."

"No need..." Turning her eyes away from the window, Matsumoto Arina scooped a spoonful of the cold curry beef rice with a spoon.

"I don't care about my bed, it doesn't matter where I sleep."

She was a boarding student and had previously lived in the student dormitory of the private Sungji Women's University. She had little sense of belonging to her home.

I remember that when she first lived in the school dormitory, it was Xiao Lai who helped her clean the room and make the bed.

"Miss, I brought you a few sets of clothes to change into, as well as towels, toothbrushes, cups, and so on..."

Xiao Lai said this as he hung the clothes in the closet.

The president's lounge is very large, equivalent to a small apartment.

Except for the lack of a kitchen, it has everything you need, including sofas, beds, private bathroom, etc. The overall space is much more spacious than Matsumoto Arina's dormitory.

"Well, thank you for your hard work..." After stuffing the last bite of curry rice into her mouth, Matsumoto Arina responded vaguely.

"By the way, miss, what would you like to eat for lunch tomorrow?" Xiao Lai was busy with his hands and feet, and turned his head to glance in the direction of Matsumoto Arina.

"I'll make it at home and send it to your office."

"Don't bother, I can eat in the cafeteria, or ask my secretary to buy it nearby." Putting the thermal lunch box on the coffee table, Matsumoto Arina wiped her mouth with a napkin.

"It's no trouble, miss. It only takes me half an hour to drive here." Xiao Lai continued to insist.

"I said no!"

After working as the president of the company for a whole day, Matsumoto Arina was full of anger, and her voice couldn't help but become a little stern.

"I'm sorry, miss..." Xiao Lai quickly lowered his head.

"call--"

"It's none of your business, Xiao Lai." Taking a deep breath, Matsumoto Arina calmed her annoyed mood and her tone softened a little.

"I'm so overwhelmed by all the big and small things happening in the company that I haven't smiled much today."

It was only Xiao Lai who allowed her to express her true feelings. If her mother, Matsumoto Yuriko, was here, Matsumoto Arina would have to endure a lot of ridicule.

"Miss, my wife helped you with the leave of absence procedures this afternoon."

“Being a president must be very tiring…”

Xiao Lai lowered his head, paused, and did not continue speaking.

But Matsumoto Arina knew what she wanted to say. When she resolutely chose to live in the school dormitory, Xiao Lai also advised her to go home and apologize to her mother.

However, the current situation is not what Xiao Lai thought. The mother and daughter can reconcile by just apologizing.

Either Matsumoto Arina will become successful and lead the Matsumoto Group to glory on another path. Although the Matsumoto Group will no longer have the glory of the real estate industry, at least it will have secured its place in the entertainment industry.

Or she would fail and watch the Matsumoto Group build a tall building and then collapse, and after all her ambitions were worn down, she would go home to her mother Matsumoto Yuriko and become an obedient rich second-generation.

"It's getting late, Xiao Lai, go back."

"Miss..." Xiao Lai hesitated to speak. He knew that at this moment, Matsumoto Arina probably needed someone to accompany her, care for her, and help her.

Unfortunately, my abilities are limited. I can only be a nanny, and I am too busy to take care of my wife as well.

"Why don't you ask Mr. Fujii to help?"

"Are you afraid that your wife will find out about their relationship?"

In Xiao Lai's impression, Fujii Itsuki is undoubtedly a handsome and excellent person. After all, he can win the favor of both Yuriko Matsumoto and Arina Matsumoto, mother and daughter.

"Yes, Miss." Xiao Lai did not ask the question, but bowed slightly to Matsumoto Arina.

"Take care of yourself and get some rest early."

After Xiao Lai left, Matsumoto Arina took off her socks, shook off her fatigue, sat down on the sofa and rubbed her sore feet.

However, when she was about to take a towel and go to the bathroom to take a hot bath to relieve her fatigue, her face suddenly became ugly as if she had accidentally touched something dirty.

"Damn you bastard!"

The towel in his hand was soft and dry, and next to it was a gray plaid striped scarf. It was exactly the same scarf that Fujii Itsuki had used to wipe his feet last time!

Chapter 270: Choose One of Three (Additional 2k words, total 6.2k)

The next morning, it was just dawn.

Ogihara Saki got up early before the alarm clock rang.

"Well--"

The air conditioner has been turned off at a set time. She stretched out her two slender, pale arms from under the quilt, and the cold winter air made Ogihara Saki shiver subconsciously.

She sat up and rubbed her sleepy eyes with her slender hands, looking at the boy next to her pillow. She leaned over and kissed him lightly on the forehead, and whispered, "Shu, I'll make breakfast for you."

"I'll wake you up later."

As she spoke, Ogihara Saki quietly lifted the quilt, put on her slippers, picked up the square-framed glasses on the bedside table without putting on her contact lenses, and walked out with light steps.

"Buzz-"

Just after 7 o'clock in the morning, the sound of the range hood began to be heard in the kitchen.

"Da da da."

Just as I was using a spatula to flip the fried eggs in the pan, I suddenly heard light footsteps coming from the stairs.

I thought it was the sisters Shimizu Rin and Shimizu Ai who had to get up early to go to school, so Ogihara Saki poked her head out and called out, "Wait a moment, breakfast will be ready soon!"

As a result, she looked carefully and saw that the person coming down the stairs from the second floor was a woman wearing a slim-fitting OL uniform, thin-framed glasses, with a plump figure, and a mature and beautiful face.

Ogihara Saki was stunned for a moment, then an idea suddenly flashed in her mind. She recalled that the other party should be the biological mother of Shimizu Rin and Shimizu Ai mentioned by Fujii Itsuki - Aunt Momonogi Eiko!

"……Who are you?"

Looking at the girl in front of her who was wearing a floral apron, holding a spatula in her hand, with long slightly curled black hair hanging down, regular features and delicate looks, and whose appearance was no less beautiful than her eldest daughter, Shimizu Rin, Momonogi Eiko asked softly.

"You must be Aunt Momonogi that Shu often mentions!"

The Shimizu sisters are the Shimizu sisters, and Momonogi Eiko is Momonogi Eiko.

Feeling a little nervous about meeting the parents in advance, Ogihara Saki bent down and bowed slightly, smiling gently but politely, and said generously: "I am Shu's girlfriend, my name is Ogihara Saki."

"Ogiwara...Saki?!"

"Xiaoshu's...girlfriend!!!"

"Ah hello."

Momonogi Eiko nodded calmly on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil.

"Xiao Shu actually has a girlfriend?"

"And she's such a gentle and pretty girl!"

"It seems a bit sudden..."

"Why haven't I heard Xiaoshu mention it before?"

Adjusting the thin-framed glasses on her nose, Momonogi Eiko tried her best to act like a responsible parent.

"Well, because..."

Ogihara Saki kept smiling and adjusted her glasses. She said a little embarrassedly, "Because my mother has always been against my relationship with Shu."

"She has only recently begun to relax her attitude."

"Um?!"

"I've already met the girl's parents!"

Momonogi Eiko's eyes narrowed, her surprise growing even more intense. She spoke as if to ease the atmosphere, "So it was my mother-in-law who objected. No wonder Xiaoshu never told me..."

"That was indeed the case at first, but don't worry Aunt Momonogi!"

Hearing what Momonogi Eiko said, Ogihara Saki waved her hands and explained: "Although my mother doesn't think much of us, she has agreed to my marriage to Shu now!"

"Get...married?!"

"Have you reached the stage of discussing marriage?"

As the aunt of Fujii Itsuki, this was the first time that Momonogi Eiko felt that her source of information was so outdated.

In order to prevent the girl named "Ogihara Saki" from saying more shocking things like "Auntie, please come to my wedding with Itsuki tomorrow" or "I'm actually pregnant with Itsuki's child", Momonogi Eiko changed the subject and said, "Ogihara, um, Ogihara-san..."

"You can just call me Xiaosaki."

"Xiaosaki, I'm sorry, but Auntie has to go to work."

Nodding slightly at Ogihara Saki, Momonogi Eiko pushed up her thin-framed glasses, and her long, beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings under her OL uniform couldn't help but look a little more flustered. She walked towards the entrance of Fujii's house with an uneasy mood.

"Wait, Aunt Momonogi..."

Suddenly, a girl called out from behind, and Momonogi Eiko stopped.

Turning around, a girl with a floral apron around her chest walked into the kitchen, packed a vegetarian sandwich and a bag of hot milk in a plastic bag, and handed it to her in a friendly manner.

"The weather is cold, so you can take these with you to eat on the road." Ogihara Saki's already friendly voice was mixed with sincerity and tenderness.

"Thank you, Xiaosaki..." Standing at the entrance and taking the sandwich, Momonogi Eiko whispered a thank you.

She looked at Ogihara Saki deeply, as if she wanted to imprint this handsome and gentle face into her heart.

Putting her feet into the brown loafers, hooking up her slender calves wrapped in black stockings and putting them on, Momonogi Eiko opened the door of Fujii's house and walked out with mixed feelings.

"call--"

Outside the door, the biting cold winter wind blew across my face.

Looking back at Fujii's house behind her, Momonogi Eiko sighed softly in her heart.

"Xiaoshu has a girlfriend..."

"Then what should Rin and Ai do?"

"Buzz-"

The seat belt crossed the round outline of his chest, and the white Honda car slowly drove out of the garage in the cold winter air.

Looking at the vegetarian sandwich and milk on the passenger seat, Momonogi Eiko bit her red lips tightly.

"Can Rin really get pregnant with Xiaoshu's child as she wishes?"

"And will Ai, the undercover agent, be ignored by Xiaoshu because of Xiaosaki's appearance?"

She couldn't help but worry about the future of her two daughters, but unfortunately, Momonogi Eiko had no way of knowing the answers.

All she could do was pray that Fujii Itsuki would be gentler to her daughters, while working overtime day and night to help the company negotiate more big orders so that the 50 million yen debt could be paid off sooner.

The cosmetics company she works for recently launched new products, and because of its excellent performance last quarter, Momonogi Eiko was assigned to find celebrities to discuss cooperation.

If she can complete this order, she will be able to add another great achievement and her year-end bonus will double.

"drop--"

Driving away the chaotic thoughts from his mind, the Honda drove steadily towards the company in Taito District.

……

"Da da da."

Momonogi Eiko walked on the wooden stairs in cotton slippers for a few minutes, and Shimizu Ai, whose biological clock rang on time, walked down the stairs from the second floor while yawning.

She was wearing a pure cotton pink pajamas that wrapped her petite body tightly. Her two ponytails were tied behind her head, and two long rabbit ears hung down from the brim of her pajamas.
