The counterattack system arrived 20 years earlier, and the sister next door originally wanted to cul

"Why did you wake up so early today?"

"Can't you sleep a little longer on Sunday?" Takanashi Wakaka was not surprised or curious about why Ruoye came out of Lin Xiaqing's room.

At the same time...she was not worried that the woman would eat her precious sister up.

Lin Xiaqing is actually a very stubborn person.

"I slept there yesterday afternoon when I came back from Akihabara with Sister Xia Qing." Takanashi Wakaba sat down next to Wakahua, and the two of them played with balloons together.

Today is Wakaba Takanashi's birthday.

Do not--

To be more precise, tomorrow is Wakaba Takanashi's birthday.

It’s just that today is Sunday, so it’s easier for everyone to make time.

Moreover, Takanashi Wakaba actually doesn't care whether her birthday is today or tomorrow.

"That guy has already set up the computer for Ruoye, right?"

Takanashi Wakaka gently adjusted Wakaba's hair, "She's quite quick."

"correct."

"Is there any other classmate Ruoye would like to invite?"

"Huh?" Kotori Wakaba was stunned for a moment.

"No matter what, it's Ruoye's coming-of-age birthday party, so there should be more people to make it lively enough." Takanashi Wakaka smiled, and her eyes looking at Ruoye were full of indescribable doting.

"Then...where is my sister?" Wakaba Takanashi said something that surprised Ruohua.

"My sister's coming-of-age birthday party...are there a lot of people there too?"

Xiaoniao You Ruohua was stunned.

In fact, Wakaka Takanashi has never held a birthday party.

Ever since she left her hometown in Izu, she has completely forgotten her birthday.

For Wakaka Takanashi, she doesn't care about her birthday at all.

The date of her birthday depends entirely on when the birthday presents and postcards that Ruoye mailed to her arrive.

Takanashi Wakaba understood Wakaka's expression.

Both sisters are the type who are not good at hiding their feelings, and their expressions are consistent and easy to understand.

Takanashi Wakaba gently hugged Wakahua.

"That..."

"Sister, just treat today as your birthday party."

Takanashi Wakaba thought about it carefully and found that her sister, who had been self-reliant since childhood, had never had a birthday party in her memory. But in contrast, her sister almost never missed her own birthday.

Even when studying in Tokyo, he would return to his hometown in Izu to celebrate his birthday.

If I think about it this way...I used to be too introverted, so introverted that I ignored the fact that everyone around me liked me very much.

Maybe everyone really likes Ruohua, who is the center of attention.

However, this does not mean that everyone dislikes Ruoye, who was once so mediocre.

Because Ruohua is the center of attention, the pressure she bears is bound to be greater.

There was no reason for Takanashi Wakaka to refuse.

She just hugged Ruoye, nodded slightly, and continued to hit the balloon.

But~

Perhaps even Wakaka Takanashi herself did not notice that she was not alone on her coming-of-age birthday.

That day, she and Ruoye, who was so small that she had to tiptoe to reach the phone at home, talked on the phone for a long time at school.

I didn't hang up the phone until I thought Ruoye should be asleep.

And...right next to her classroom, Kayoko Tokita, who thought that Wakaka Takanashi was still studying hard even on her coming-of-age birthday, was studying very hard.

However...she still failed to pass the exam against Wakaka Takanashi in the end.

Only after the sun slowly rose did Lin Xiaqing slowly get out of bed.

She stepped on the ground barefoot.

I found that the door of my house was not closed.

You can see straight across.

Sister Ruohua and Ruoye are preparing for the birthday party.

With Lin Xiaqing's joining, the preparations for the birthday party went much faster.

After a moment of thought, Takanashi Wakaba finally chose to invite only Terajima Shino, Hirakawa Nana and Umemura Rei to her birthday party.

Actually...she originally wanted to invite Mr. Akatsuka.

After all, she is my future ex-girlfriend... Strange, why does this sound so strange.

However, this is to avoid any awkwardness between my elder sister and Mr. Akatsuka in the future.

Takanashi Wakaba finally gave up the idea.

In the apartment, after waking up, Lin Xiaqing was responsible for the remaining cooking work. Takanashi Wakaka drove Ruoye to invite classmates to attend Ruoye's birthday dinner.

However, Wakaba Takanashi hasn't left yet.

She was stunned to see her parents, dressed simply in this life, standing a little awkwardly in front of the apartment. They looked unsure, trying to pull out their phones to make a call, but they could only lean together to examine their phones.

I feel a little like crying.

Wakaba Takanashi is not a child who will be abandoned.

Volume 78: Part My Old Mother's Eyes [Fourth Update]

It actually takes quite a while to get from my hometown in Izu to Tokyo.

The hometown of Wakaba and Wakaka Takanashi is in the countryside of Izu.

If you want to get to Tokyo, you first need to take a very long bus to Atami, and then take the Shinkansen to Tokyo.

After arriving in Tokyo, it took a long time to find the apartment that Wakaba Kotori rented.

Wakaba Takanashi seemed to be able to see her parents taking the bus before dawn, or even taking the last bus to Atami last night.

Then the scene of taking the earliest Shinkansen train to Tokyo this morning.

And...because I didn't want to make myself and my sister worry, and didn't want to disturb my sister and myself from resting in the morning, I didn't even dare to call.

I feel a little heavy in my heart.

Tatami Wakaba turned her head and looked at her sister beside her. Tatami Wakaha gently let go of Wakaba's hand and showed an encouraging expression.

Kitano Wakaba ran in small steps, then quickened her pace and threw herself into her mother's arms.

After two lifetimes, I still feel a pang of sadness when I feel the warmth of my mother's embrace.

Wakaha and Wakaba's mother is a very beautiful woman.

It can be said that Ruoye and Ruohua have perfectly inherited their mother's appearance.

"Ruoye...are you doing well in Tokyo?" Kotori Akisui's voice was soft and cautious. She knew that because of Ruohua, the child had been inferior since childhood.

Xiao Niao You Qiu Shui, who once accidentally touched a girl's sore spot, was very cautious when facing Ruo Ye and did not dare to ask about the girl's grades.

On the side, my father was silent.

Because his wife forbade him to say anything nonsense to Ruoye, he could only focus his attention on Ruohua, who was behind Ruoye and made the village even more proud.

Little Bird Wakahata walked over slowly.

In fact, if it were in the past, her parents' restrained and cautious appearance would have more easily touched Ruoye's sensitive and introverted nerves.

Being sensitive always has this disadvantage.

Even if the simple parents understood their daughter's thoughts, it would be difficult for them to find the right way to deal with it.

But now, because the 'plug-in was loaded successfully', Ruoye, who has gradually transformed from a state of social anxiety and inferiority to a state of social terrorist, can slowly understand the difficulties of her parents.

"Hmm..." She nodded with a wet nose.

Then he looked up at his mother, "Mom..."

"Will you stay tonight?"

【Ding--】

The reminder sound of the system lady's task rang in my ears.

[At the age of forty, you saw your parents rushing from Izu because of the news of your divorce.]

[Your relationship with them has gradually become distant over the years.]

You thought they were here to hold you accountable.

[But...what you didn't expect was that your mother quietly cleaned up the apartment for you, while your father smoked one cigarette after another. After being scolded by your mother, he hid in the bathroom alone.]

You realize you haven't been home for a long, long time.

[A son wishes to support his parents, but they are no longer around.]

【Invite your parents to spend this difficult birthday with you. 】

[Mission reward: 100,000 yen.]

【…】

How should I put it? I suddenly felt sad when I saw the task.

Especially when thinking of middle-aged Aunt Ruoye in another world.

The inner changes of middle-aged Aunt Ruoye were probably also drastic, but I am different from her. I am much luckier than her, and I still have time to change everything.

Xiao Niao You Qiu Shui had no reason to refuse her daughter.

The plan is still going ahead.

The only difference is that the person busy in the kitchen changed from Sister Xia Qing alone to Sister Xia Qing and her mother.

Kotori Yuu Qiu Shui felt the change in Ruo Ye.

She looked at Lin Xiaqing in the kitchen, thinking that her daughter might have changed because of the girl in front of her.

Xiaoniao You Qiu Shui's gaze made Lin Xiaqing shiver all over.

She didn't know why...she always felt like she was about to be peeled off in front of her aunt.

In fact, Xiaoniao You Qiu Shui’s gaze was not that excessive.

She just felt that Lin Xiaqing's figure was still a little thin, and it seemed that she would not have easy childbirth.

Wakaba's health is not very good.

We can't let Ruoye give birth to and raise children.

The old mother still wants to hold her granddaughter.

But...as long as Ruoye likes it, that's enough.

Wakaba Takanashi and Wakaka went out to pick up Wakaba's classmates.

The first person invited was Terajima Shino.

Takanashi Wakaba called Terajima Shino in advance in front of the shopping street.

When she arrived at the dessert shop of Terajima Shino's family, she found that Terajima Shino was a little flustered and shy trying to take off the dessert shop apron on her body.

Knowing that the girl also worked part-time at home on weekends, Takanashi Wakaba had no unusual expression at all... She took Terajima Shino's hand, then bowed respectfully to her aunt, "Then~"

"My aunt."

"I'll take Shino away~"

Terajima Shino's cheeks were burning hot, and she always felt that Wakaba's meaning was a little ambiguous.
