Congratulations, Sushi, you have been optimized by me.

However, Su Shi's mother didn't seem to notice anything unusual at the moment, or maybe she never thought that someone would pretend to be her daughter?

So now... seems like a good opportunity to get to know Su Shi?

But the question is, is it okay for her to ask about other people's private affairs like this?

"Su Shi, there's something... I want to tell you. I don't know if you're willing to hear it, but I think you're a grown-up kid now, and there are some things you really need to know."

"……Eh?"

"It's about your bastard father."

"what?"

She didn't ask, she didn't ask anything just now! This is what she wanted to say, it has nothing to do with her, Chihiro Tsuzuki!

Chapter 107: Su Shi: Chihiro, I'm sorry! (2/2)

Is this something she can hear?

Chihiro Tsuzuki frowned. She felt that such a topic might have touched upon the parts of Su Shi that she least wanted others to touch.

Before this, Chihiro had never seen Su Shi mention her family.

Of course...it was the same for her. But because Chihiro knew that some things were just not meant to be known, she was reluctant to ask about things she shouldn't know.

Although she regarded Su Shi as a good friend and could tolerate him driving her away out of anger, since they were friends, they should show basic respect to each other, so she would not take the initiative to ask about things that Su Shi did not mention.

Even though in this case, their relationship may seem like an ordinary one of mutual benefit to others, for Chihiro this is the social principle she abides by.

"Mom...why don't we talk about this later?"

However, Nagasaki Rina clearly had no intention of listening to Chihiro's words. She paused and then said:

"Your father is no longer the same person you remembered as a child, Su Shi. Mommy, I just want you to know... what kind of person he really is.

And why have I never tried to get back together with him all these years...? "

Giving her daughter an incomplete home when she was young is a permanent pain in Rina Nagasaki's heart.

However, when Suyo was young, Nagasaki Rina did not want Suyo to know her father's true face. After all, for a child, whatever wrong things her father did had nothing to do with her.

So Rina Nagasaki chose to keep it secret. She didn't want her young daughter to be hurt because of it, and she didn't want her daughter to be bullied as a bad kid after she let the secret out at school.

But now Nagasaki Rina feels that it is time to say some things, after all, she recently received a message from that man.

Although the message was sent from a virtual number and the content was just a simple sentence "I want to see my daughter", Nagasaki Rina still couldn't miss any possibility.

If Suyo, who is unaware of the truth, is taken away by that guy Ichinose Teruto, the consequences will be disastrous.

"The year Mom and Dad divorced, it wasn't because your dad cheated on his wife, nor was it for any other reason. It was because your dad committed fraud and was sent to prison."

"……what?"

Chihiro Tsuzuki was stunned. She never expected that after having a meal in place of Su Shi today, she would hear such explosive news.

"Because of the victim's special identity at the time, the specific details of the case were not published in the newspapers to protect the victim's reputation. It was only then that I learned his true identity.

So I divorced him. He originally wanted to give you some compensation, but mom thought the money in his hands was not clean, so she refused it all.

During that time, Mom worked very hard. I wanted to give you, my daughter, the best possible life. I wanted to prove to your father that you can live a prosperous life without resorting to illegal means to defraud money.

"..."

Chihiro Tsuzuki didn't say a word the whole time because she thought of something. Although she felt that her guess was unfounded, it was as if she was deliberately venting the accumulated resentment.

"Your father... seems to be staying in the UK recently. I checked the virtual mobile phone number he used to send me messages, and I can barely confirm that it was sent from the UK.

He probably hasn't corrected his bad habits yet. He said he wanted to see you, but how could I possibly give him this opportunity..."

"U.K?!"

"Well, what's wrong, Suye?" Seeing her "daughter" suddenly so excited, Nagasaki Rina was a little confused.

However, Chihiro Tsuzuki's emotions came and went quickly. Although huge waves were surging in the girl's heart, she still concealed it well at this moment.

Yes, let’s not talk about whether Su Shi’s father is the one who cheated his parents out of their money.

She, Chihiro Tsuzuki, is also a little liar. Since she is a liar, she will not easily reveal her true face.

"I understand, Mom." Tsuzuki Chihiro smiled, "Mom... I'm full."

"Are you really full?"

“I’m really full.”

"Okay, okay." Nagasaki Rina was a little worried when she saw her daughter accept the reality so quickly, but she was more worried that her daughter would get involved in the affairs of adults, "Su Shi...listen to mom.

No matter what, don't get involved in your father's affairs. These are matters for adults, and they will handle them."

"……I understand."

Tsuzuki Chihiro hesitated for a moment, then nodded, agreeing on behalf of Su Shi.

But she was also thinking about a question: how should she convey this matter to Su Shi? Would the other party... accept this reality as she did?

"Come on, Mom will take you home."

"Eh?" Tsuzuki Chihiro pretended to be a little surprised, and of course she was really a little surprised when she asked, "Mom, aren't you coming home tonight?"

"Ah... well, Mommy has to deal with adult matters. If I go home tomorrow, it will be too late."

"Ok."

In that case, today's performance was considered a success, right? At least the truth wasn't revealed.

..

2020年5月10日星期日，中午11点30分。

Su Shi felt exhausted after sleeping last night. After all, she didn't feel sleepy until the second half of the night.

However, Saturday night has different meanings for different people in this city.

For someone like Su Shi, whose mind is full of "right" and "wrong", and who is wavering between "things have come to this point" and "I regret it", his mind must be full of contradictions and the exhaustion brought by the contradictions.

But for Chihiro, she hugged her cat-like sister and used her soft body to warm the tension in her heart. Even if she heard some groundless "facts" from Su Shi's mother, the girl could at least hug Lenai in exchange for a peaceful sleep.

Of course, Aine, Lixi, and Xiaodeng were worried about the LIVE tomorrow night, and they were also worried about whether the sick bassist would appear at the LIVE.

In comparison, Renai and the others were not as nervous about the LIVE as they were. Instead, Xiangzi, who had just returned home from work at the music store, couldn't help but recall the passionate look Chihiro gave him when he played the piano in front of her that day.

"LIVE... I definitely won't be going anyway."

Su Shi, who got up from bed almost at noon, rolled her eyes at Li Xi's chat interface on her phone and said something angrily.

This Li Xi actually really didn't care about herself afterwards, but it seemed that this was her original purpose.

But no matter what, it was already late and she really should go out for dinner.

I had a light meal at home yesterday, so I have to go out and treat myself today. Otherwise, I’ll go crazy if I stay at home for two days...

If I were outside, at least I could fill the emptiness in my heart with the hustle and bustle.

"Yoshinoya... Forget it, I'm afraid I'll run into Nina and the others. I'll try not to go around there or to RiNG. There are a few good restaurants over at Circle, and Riki and the others definitely won't be going there today.

Alas, I am still too smart."

Su Shi decided to go out today to relieve his negative emotions and break free from unrealistic fantasies as soon as possible. After boasting to himself, he changed his clothes and went out.

Su Shi didn't know much about Circle LIVE HOUSE. She only knew that the store had been overcrowded in recent years, so the owner opened a RiNG branch.

Of course, this is actually true. After SPACE closed, Tsuzuki Shifune and the Genjumaki Group cooperated to open Circle, but the subsequent RiNG had little to do with the Genjumaki Group and was considered a branch established with Shifune's personal investment.

However, Su Shi was completely unaware of these things, otherwise she would never have thought that she would happen to meet Chihiro's grandmother who was going to Circle to discuss some important matters with the person in charge.

"Chihiro?"

"..."

Su Shi, who had just gotten off the bus and walked near the Circle, suddenly trembled when she heard someone shout the name "Chihiro". Then she heard the person add, "Ah...it's Su Shi again?"

"what……"

Seeing the old lady in front of her, whose eyebrows and eyes vaguely showed that she was a beauty in her youth, and combining it with the words she just said, Nagasaki Suyo suddenly thought of something.

Could this be Chihiro's grandmother?

Is this... her ultimate luck as a reborn being? No, she couldn't let go of this opportunity to thoroughly understand what that damned liar was thinking.

In short, she should apologize to the liar this time. It was that guy who cheated her first.

"Grandma, why are you here? I'm Chihiro~"

.....

ps: In order to prevent readers from misunderstanding, I will explain it briefly without involving spoilers. The main stage of this book is still the story between the protagonist and the girls in mygo and gbc. The line of Su Shi’s father will not occupy too much proportion, nor will it deviate from the theme of the book because of this paragraph. Adults’ affairs will be solved by adults, and the girls’ problems will be guided and solved by the protagonist. This is the purpose of my book.

And I don't believe it. Mujica can't go and tell Su Shi about his father, right? If I can be backstabbed, then I'll accept it!

Chapter 108: Nagasaki Suyo? Just a poor imitation of my granddaughter! (6 more)

"Oh? What are you doing today..."

Tsuzuki Shifune has just finished dealing with the LIVE HOUSE matters, so there is nothing else to do now.

She remembered that Chihiro did not wear any makeup when she went out today. Of course, she could not rule out the possibility that the child secretly changed her appearance when she was not at home.

After all, when Chihiro came back last night, she was wearing the face of the girl in front of her.

Why did he use the phrase "the girl before his eyes" to describe her? It was because Tsuzuki Shifune had immediately noticed the flash of panic that crossed Suyo's face.

Even if she was really her granddaughter, she would be so nervous because she must have done something that she didn't want her grandmother to know.

"I have something to do today."

"Is it still the same as before, a secret that can't be told to grandma?"

"Eh?"

Nagasaki Suyo was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she realized what Tsuzuki Shichuan meant.

In other words... did Chihiro actually never tell anyone the contents of their contract from the beginning to the end? This surprised Su Shi a little, but after thinking about it for a moment... she felt that it was not surprising.

Although that guy cheated on her, he didn't seem to be the type of person who would break a promise easily. Otherwise, Su Shi wouldn't have "mistakenly believed" that the other party was someone who could understand her and had the same ideas as her.

But so what? Grandma Tsuzuki had already called out "Chihiro," which meant that at least the disguise swap had been exposed, and maybe Rakuna had already known about it.

Of course, there is no point in thinking about these things now. After all, Li Xi already knows the truth, and the other party didn’t even learn it from Lenai.

Sigh...finding someone to pretend to be me is indeed a very stupid plan.

"Forget it, Chihiro, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. You always have your own ideas, and you are very stubborn. Once you make up your mind about something, no one can change it."

"Haha... yeah, really."

Tsuzuki Shifune has now almost confirmed that the girl in front of him is definitely not his sharp-tongued granddaughter.

Her Chihiro doesn't have such a bad eloquence, but that can sometimes make an old lady like her so angry that she takes off her granddaughter's skirt and spanks her hard.

She had just said a few words when the little girl in front of her was sweating profusely. It was obvious that she was the real Nagasaki Suyo.

"Yeah, don't you and I understand each other? You and your father have exactly the same personality."

"dad?"

Chihiro's father? It seems that Chihiro Tsuzuki has never mentioned this person to her. Damn it... Nagasaki Suyo felt itchy in her heart and wanted to ask for specific information.

But for Chihiro Tsuzuki, isn't it a bit too stupid to ask who her father is at this time?

No, she had to hold it in.

"You haven't fulfilled your agreement with that girl Su Shi yet, right?" Tsuzuki Shifune smiled, not trying to catch the flaws in Su Shi's performance. "You've been busy all over the place these days, and you didn't even tell grandma. Sigh..."

"Is that so……"

Nagasaki Suyo was in mixed emotions, she didn't know how to describe her reaction after hearing these words.

In fact, she did feel a little regretful.

She could have actually calmed down and chatted with Chihiro for a few more minutes, such as asking her why she did that and why she had to confront her.

But she was scared at that time. Needless to say, she was afraid that Chihiro, the only person who could understand her in her heart, would say things that did not make her understand her.

And in fact, the words that Chihiro criticized her that day did deepen this feeling, making her want to kick the other person out of the house and hide in the house alone to calm down.
