Why does the good husband not forget the past of being bullied by the evil woman after marriage?

"You know what, Yuki-kun? Principal Kawakami is amazing. She's a very different woman."

"Kawakami? I remember it wasn't like this before. Has your school changed its principal?"

"I'm not sure. Other teachers call her the principal. I think her real name is Kawakami Ikue!"

Yuuki Shimizu was instantly choked by a mouthful of wine, his dark pupils contracted violently, and he raised his forehead to look at the drunk and dizzy woman.

"By the way, did Erika remember the name wrong? Can you tell me the exact characters?"

257. The thorn in the heart between husband and wife, I hope someone will accompany Yuki-kun in the future

Erika Shimizu never expected that her husband would suddenly have such a big reaction just because she was chatting casually, so she asked cautiously.

"What's wrong with Yuuki-kun? You look so bad, is your fever coming back?"

Erika reached out to touch Shimizu Yuuki's forehead, but the man grabbed her wrist and she dodged.

"No, it's okay. It's just that the name Erika just said sounded very familiar. I was a little surprised."

"So Yuuki-kun also knows someone with the same name as Principal Kawakami Ikue? But maybe it's just a similar pronunciation, otherwise it would be too much of a coincidence!"

She had originally planned to search directly on the Internet, but she didn't expect that there was no information about the female principal, Ikue Kawakami, on the official website of Yingling Girls' High School. Erika had to recall and spell out the name and give it to Shimizu Hiroki for confirmation.

However, when she saw her husband Hiroki Shimizu's face becoming more and more solemn, her pair of dark pupils contracted and shook slightly, as if just seeing the name reminded her of some extremely terrible past.

She had only seen this kind of expression when they had just gotten together. At that time, Shimizu Hiroki often had nightmares. He would always wake up in the middle of the night with sweat all over his head and looked absent-minded.

It was not until later that she got angry and took Shimizu Hiroki to see a psychiatrist, and started taking medication, and with her psychological counseling, that the frequency of her nightmares gradually decreased.

As for why such serious psychological problems occurred, Erika vaguely guessed that it might be related to Shimizu Hiroki's experience of losing his parents when he was in junior high school. This was also the explanation Shimizu Hiroki told her personally.

"This name... is exactly the same as the sister I knew when I was a child. We are not related by blood, but it's almost the same."

Realizing that continuing to lose his composure would only arouse more serious suspicion, Shimizu Hiroki quickly calmed down and ate his meal as if nothing had happened.

"Did she do anything too extreme to Yuuki-kun?"

Erika knows very well that beneath her husband's seemingly tough and strong appearance, he actually has a heart that is extremely insecure. The gloomy atmosphere that occasionally surrounds Shimizu Hiroki, like the sadness and sorrow of withered autumn leaves, is the best proof of this!

Over the years, she has been carefully nurturing and healing, and will never tolerate anyone trampling on or tearing open the healed wounds of Shimizu Hiroki's past. This is also her duty as a wife!

"Erika should know that I was bullied in high school, right?" Shimizu Hiroki smiled, as if he was explaining something that had nothing to do with him.

"Of course, even if Yuuki-kun only told me once, I can't forget such dark and terrible things, being isolated by the whole class and even the whole school, being treated coldly, and those bad guys who took the lead in bullying and humiliating Yuuki-kun! I didn't expect that boys also like to hate each other like some girls, and use these despicable means to scheme against each other!"

Erika suddenly became indignant, and the bamboo chopsticks in her hand creaked. Even when she was bullied, she rarely felt so bizarrely angry!

"If only I had been with Yuuki-kun at that time, I would have protected him from their bullying!"

Seeing Erika so naturally misinterpret the gender of the real perpetrator, Shimizu Hiroki felt a little ironic, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Well, if you don't tell me about these things, I'm about to forget them." Shimizu Yuuki said lightly, "What I want to say is that it was this sister named Kawakami Yue who protected me from them at that time."

"Really? Yuki-kun has never told me this!" Erika was immediately very curious and opened her big, watery eyes wide, "Where is this kind neighbor sister now? Is she married? I feel like I should thank her!"

"I don't know. After coming to Tokyo to study, she took the initiative to cut off contact with me..."

The acting skills displayed by Hiroki Shimizu are extremely realistic. Since Mina Sakai and other evil women took the lead, he felt deeply in crisis and could not help but think of many excuses to cover up his dirty past that was shameful in any way, and now they are coming in handy.

But it was hard not to feel sick at the thought of trying to justify and glorify those disgusting women.

As for whether the "Kawakami Ikue" mentioned by Erika is the same person he knows, Shimizu Hiroki is not sure yet.

But how could there be such coincidences in this world?

Erika, who had been looking for a job again after two years of neglect, was admitted to Sakurai Girls' High School where she used to work. The school just happened to have a new principal with the same name.

Hiroki Shimizu had no choice but to be cautious, thinking that the other party might come to recognize him again in the name of a good sister, and he had already begun to lay the groundwork for various developments that might happen in the future.

"That's a shame. This sister must be a kindhearted beauty, right? Although not related by blood, she sounds like the only relative Yuuki-kun has left in this world."

"Well, I don't know if I'll see you again in the future."

Shimizu Hiroki smiled faintly, but there was a barely perceptible hint of far-fetchedness in the depths of his eyes.

This woman, Kawakami Yue, is simply a dodder that looks weak on the outside but is actually vicious. She selfishly parasitizes on his ridiculous sympathy and has to keep him hanging because he is worried about leaving her alone alive.

Hiroki Shimizu could only continue to live in this world for the sake of his so-called only remaining relatives, which led to the bitter consequences of today.

"Hey, will you accompany me to school next Monday, Yuuki-kun? Just think of it as picking up your lovely wife from get off work, and by the way, confirm whether Principal Kawakami is Yuuki-kun's long-lost neighbor's sister!"

Although Erika is a woman with an extraordinary status and position in Hiroki Shimizu's heart, her possessiveness is not weak and she is prone to throwing tantrums, but she is not so controlling that she would be jealous of the opposite sex who is treated as a sister by her husband.

Compared to these, she wanted to see Shimizu Yuki truly happy and joyful...

Life is still long, and the outcome of her illness is always uncertain until she is completely cured. It cannot be ruled out that one day she will suddenly become terminally ill and beyond recovery. This is a possibility that must be kept in mind.

Compared to the sadness of watching the prime of life slipping away from her fingers, Erika is more worried that in the future, her beloved Yuuki will have to live alone in this world like he did in the past when he was alone.

As a husband, Hiroki Shimizu couldn't help but understand the hidden meaning of his wife's words. He felt his heart twitching, but he couldn't say any words of rebuke or blame.

This is the thorn that has always stood between the couple. Since neither of them has the heart to expose the extremely cruel reality beneath the seemingly beautiful appearance, they can only cherish and love each other in this self-righteous way.

It's so sad and so happy...

"Okay, I promise Erika."

Shimizu Hiroki nodded heavily.

258. First day at work, the first-year class C in a place of controversy

The one-week vacation that was taken in the name of the wedding anniversary was over in a blink of an eye. Yuki Shimizu did his best to make up for the regret caused by the fact that their long-awaited hot spring trip was interrupted because of his acclimatization problem.

Because of the recent storm passing by Tokyo, it has been drizzling these past few days.

The two of them simply became stay-at-home guys and stayed at home. It can be said that they were together every minute and every second. It was like a dream back to the days when they moved in together after dating for a year.

There was a damp and drizzling rain falling outside the window, and the wind hitting the window made a few crisp sounds from time to time. The room became dark and gloomy with the curtains drawn, but I didn't feel the cold at all, just because the person I loved most was right beside me within reach.

The light from the overhead projector played the movie list that the two had carefully selected. The sound of the rain mixed with the voices of the moviegoers. It didn't feel noisy, but instead a warm and cozy feeling instantly came to the heart.

Perhaps because the movie was a bit boring, Erika yawned, then curled up into a small ball and lay on Shimizu Hiroki's legs.

"It's already evening. Are you hungry, Erika?" Shimizu Hiroki lowered his head and touched the woman's smooth black hair.

"Hmm~ I don't really feel like eating yet, what about Yuuki-kun?"

"I'm already full after eating snacks, and I ate a lot at noon. How about ordering takeout for a midnight snack?"

"Okay, do we still want to watch the movie now?"

"Forget it, it feels a bit boring."

"Then we have to find something to kill time. But I should also exercise. The day before yesterday and yesterday were wasted."

Erika, lying in Shimizu Hiroki's arms, raised her hand high and stroked the man's light blue stubble that had not been trimmed for several days. The rough touch rubbing against her fingertips brought an inexplicable sense of security and comfort.

"Exercise? Is that what I mean?"

Shimizu Hiroki suddenly lowered his head, staring at the charming smile on the woman's lips, and understood what she meant according to his own understanding.

"What are you thinking about, Yuuki-kun? The conditions are totally wrong. Didn't we already do the 'training' you were thinking of yesterday and the day before yesterday?"

"Let's finish it now, and then take a rest and nap later. When you wake up, you'll be hungry. Isn't it just the right time to kill time?"

Faced with her husband's plan, which sounded extremely appropriate, Erika just rolled her eyes, turned over and lowered her head, and with a "swish" she broke the seal between Shimizu Yuki's legs. The level of tacit understanding between them was worthy of an old couple who had been married for three years.

After all, they were both young people with strong desires, and they were trapped in a small house on a rainy day and couldn't go out. Naturally, they had to find a way to vent the depression and heat in their hearts.

During the last few days of the holiday, they kept doing it. When they were tired, they were too lazy to leave each other's bodies and just fell asleep.

After waking up, I accidentally touched it again and it triggered my sexual desire. I thought that this saved me the trouble of washing my body, so I just did it again.

If you just want to make up for the quality with the frequency, it will undoubtedly be difficult, and the frequency is far from high. After all, Erika's physical strength limit is there, and she is a precious porcelain that cannot be tossed around at will.

And maybe it's because she has been exploited too much by those evil women, but a contrast has been formed unconsciously. Shimizu Yuuki feels that Erika seems to be more and more sensitive and petite, and the physical exercise she insists on every day seems to be a useless waste of time.

Although she was fortunate enough to be able to experience Shimizu Hiroki's battle-tested and skilled techniques, and each time she was able to reach the peak that many women have long dreamed of, the splashes of water were extremely weak and powerless.

If those evil women were like rushing rivers, then Erika could at best be regarded as the force of a faucet that was accidentally dripping from an untightened faucet.

Although the advantage is that the water flow is sufficient, the force of the water flow is so small that it can hardly break through even a thin piece of paper. The visual effect it brings can only be described as boring.

But it was not without gain. Shimizu Yuuki was pleasantly surprised to find that Erika actually took the initiative to learn to use her hands before starting.

You know, even though he had been enduring the pain of unsatisfaction, Hiroki Shimizu never hinted or taught Erika to use other parts of her body to serve him. He was unwilling to force Erika to do these things for his own selfish reasons, so as not to tarnish Erika's pure self-love.

However, seeing that Erika was not opposed to these ways of playing and even learned them by herself, Shimizu Yuki felt a warm current surge in his heart and returned them all to Erika.

Now that you have accepted the use of your hands, it is possible that you will be able to make further progress in the future!

Shimizu Hiroki maintained this spirit of self-comfort until Erika's arms became sore and weak, and the couple, who had been liberated, hugged each other tightly.

The rapid breathing gradually subsided, and was covered by the sound of rain outside the window. They caressed each other's bodies, which were no longer hot, and enjoyed the last afterglow. They both fell into a deep sleep.

The week-long leisurely vacation, or perhaps the peace and beauty that will not be seen for a long time in the future, came to an end in such an ordinary and pleasant afternoon.

……

The next day, Monday.

The Shimizu couple, who had originally planned to sleep until midnight and then have a midnight snack and play games, actually slept until the next morning. Lying on the bed, they looked at each other and smiled helplessly, both revealing expressions of great regret for not being able to make the most of every minute of the holiday.

They simply got up, washed, and had breakfast, and then used the extra time to prepare a loving lunch box together. The couple then went out to work together again after a long absence.

Since their workplaces were both in the center of Tokyo but not very close to each other, the only common train line they had to take was the first one, and they had to separate after that.

"It seems that we have to find a way to move the rental house to the city center, although I am reluctant to leave my current home. And I have not been to work for so long that I almost forgot how terrible the morning rush hour train is. Yuki-kun has to take such a long train ride to and from get off work every day. No wonder he is so tired every time he returns home."

Erika has always had a very shallow eye socket. Even when she has an argument with someone she hates, she can't help but have red and wet eyes. She loses by a large margin in terms of momentum alone.

Seeing Shimizu Hiroki looking as if nothing had happened, I couldn't help but feel my heart aching, but I tried hard not to cry, and my pink lips with lipstick under the mask were kept tightly pursed.

"It's okay. Since Erika is reluctant to move, we can consider buying a car. It will be much more convenient."

"Are you kidding, Yuuki-kun? Where does our family get the spare money to buy a car?"

Hiroki Shimizu has no obsession with luxury cars and mansions, but when it comes to Erika's daily travel safety, it has to be put on the agenda.

"The bonus from the last project is about to be paid out, so it shouldn't be a problem to borrow a little more money to buy a used car for transportation. Um... I mean a proper bank loan, not a loan shark from a gang."

After hearing her husband's explanation, Erika's dangerous look finally subsided. It was obvious that she was still upset about Shimizu Hiroki's dark history of borrowing high-interest loans for treatment without telling her but lying that the medical expenses were not that high.

The train slowly arrived at the station and it was almost time to say goodbye, but Shimizu Hiroki was still worried and kept reminding everyone of various things to pay attention to, with a very serious tone.

"No matter what, the intensity of work must not exceed the limits of the body. Don't think about resting only when you feel tired. You must leave enough room..."

"I know all about it. Yuuki-kun is so nagging that he's about to become as troublesome as Mrs. Yamada from the community committee."

"Also, I will try to get off work early today, and then come to school to pick Erika up and take her home!"

"Yeah, don't worry too much. I'll be waiting for Yuki-kun to come."

Considering the fact that there were many people on the platform, and neither of them was the type to show off, they just touched hands and reluctantly parted.

Hiroki Shimizu took the most crowded train to the company, but the train to Sakurai Girls' High School was much better, and Erika even found an empty seat in the corner.

Arriving at Sakurai Girls' High School without any obstruction, Erika first went to attend the morning meeting, but she did not see Principal Kawakami, who was suspected to be Shimizu Hiroki's long-lost sister, so she did not even have the chance to go up and ask questions.

She was then told that even though she had worked here before, she still had to undergo a period of teaching ability testing as a new teacher.

However, the salary during this period was definitely not low, and it was enough to cover the car loan. Erika certainly had no complaints, and she was confident that she could stay in this school!

It is worth mentioning that Erika is good at teaching Chinese, a subject that people easily look down upon and consider boring.

"Mr. Shimizu, the class you are in charge of is Grade 1 Class C. We will be colleagues in the same office from now on. Please follow me!"

Sato Na, who was in charge of teaching English, took the initiative to come forward to say hello after the morning meeting. She had been teaching in this class for nearly half a year and was a few years older than Erika, so she could be considered Erika's senior.

"Hello, Mr. Sato, please take care of me in the future!"

"I heard that Mr. Shimizu used to teach at this school, right? Then he must have a lot of teaching experience, right?"

"No, no, I still have a lot to learn from Mr. Sato. And after such a long period of absence, I can only start from scratch!"

Erika kept saying polite words, and the work experience she accumulated in her early years did not become rusty, and she soon became close to Sato Na.

"There is one thing I would like to remind Mr. Qingshui. First-year Class C is different from other classes. Please pay attention to this!"

"Oh, how do you say that?"

Seeing that the new teacher was so humble and polite, and was not ashamed to ask questions, Sato Na pulled Erika to the corner of the teaching building and gave her instructions in a low voice.

"Many of the students in Class C are the children of wealthy and powerful nobles in Tokyo. They are all very precocious girls, and their tempers are not easy to get along with. The ordinary stubborn and willful ones are just ordinary in the class, so being assigned to Class C is not good news.
