The lady can hear my voice

"Don't drink and drive."

"Okay, Mrs. Kubo..."

"My name is Kubo Kyoko."

"Well, good night, Sister Kyoko."

"sister?"

Kubo Kyoko laughed: "You really have a bad mouth..."

"Go back, my dear brother."

After Sora Niijima left with a smile, Kyoko Kubo subconsciously picked up the cigarette on the mahogany table.

But after hesitating for a while, he made an internal call.

Soon, a housekeeper in a housekeeper uniform came to the door.

Kubo Kyoko looked at her and smiled faintly, "Please help me throw away all the cigarettes in the house. You can take them if you want, but you are not allowed to leave them in this winery."

"All, everything? You still have some in your warehouse..."

"Either you sell it or not, it's up to you. Anyway, smoking is prohibited in this place from now on."

"Smoking ban... why so suddenly?"

Kubo Kyoko picked up the cigarette box in her hand and said meaningfully: "There are young people who call me sister. In order to be worthy of this title and live longer, it's okay to smoke less."

"Young man..." The butler thought of Sora Niijima who had just come downstairs.

Many big dramas popped up in her mind, and her expression became very exciting for a while.

Kyoko Kubo didn't bother to care what she was thinking, but turned around and looked at herself in the mirror.

I’m over 40… I’m not young anymore…

Hey……

If I were ten years younger, I might have really accepted you as my brother...

Kyoko Kubo looked at her wrinkles in the mirror and sighed.

Back then, she was also a stunning beauty.

But times have changed and things are no longer the same as before.

-

Sitting in the car, Chuhua, who was leaning on Niijima Sora, felt weak.

She was totally drunk.

So there was no choice but for Sora Niijima to carry her upstairs.

With light steps along the way, Sora Niijima felt that his strength was also increasing significantly.

When he took out the key and opened the door of the rented apartment, Sora Niijima saw Shoko working at the desk as soon as he entered.

Sora Niijima smiled at her and asked, "Which room is Chuhua's?"

Xiangzi stood up quickly: "Chuhua, this is..."

"I had a few drinks."

"liquor……"

Sora Niijima looked at Toyokawa Shoko in a daze and continued to look at her quietly.

"Here, here..." Toyokawa Shoko quickly pointed to the door of the room.

Sora Niijima smiled and said thank you to her.

He entered the room, put Chuhua on the bed, kissed her forehead gently, and covered her with the quilt.

Sora Niijima walked out of the room and looked at Shoko again.

Toyokawa Shoko clenched her fist and placed it on her chest: "...Are you going to leave?"

Sora Niijima: "Well, good night, Shoko."

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes were moist and she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

But Sora Niijima didn't even look at her and left decisively.

Finally, there was only the crisp sound of a door closing.

And behind the door closed, there was still the sound of a girl sobbing.

279 Tears of Growth

Saturday.

Sora Nijima made an appointment with Nijima in advance and came to the vicinity of Shinjuku Station.

Today Hong Xia is wearing a baseball cap and jeans, a tomboy style outfit, but with her side ponytail, she looks particularly cute.

Okay, let’s get to the showdown.

【Hongxia looks cute in anything she wears! 】

【Hongxia, my wife! 】

Sora Niijima gradually began to regain his old feeling.

Hongxia hadn't heard Sora Niijima go crazy in her heart for a long time, and her face turned red for a moment.

But there was no way to make him stop, so I could only pull at the corner of his clothes and lower my head slightly.

Sora Niijima naturally took Hongxia's hand and said, "Hongxia, thank you so much for coming here today."

The reason he invited Hong Xia was not for a date, but to really follow and observe the situation on Mu and her mother's side.

Observe the situation of Mu and her mother, then give instructions to her mother, remotely.

Then go on a date with Hongxia.

"Sora, can you tell me more about Mu-chan and her mother?"

"it is good."

Sora Niijima briefly shared the information he knew with Nijima.

Hongxia listened and frowned slightly.

"Sure enough...the family of a public figure like this is still very different from normal ones."

Sora Niijima: "Her parents were busy and no one cared about her. This was her childhood."

Hong Xia: "Fortunately...Sora, you went to help her."

"Eh?"

Hong Xia smiled and held Niijima Sora's hand tightly, "You are the little sun for each of us. Without you, we wouldn't be as happy as we are now."

"Hongxia..."

"Sora, they're here."

"Well, we can just go shopping normally and take a look from time to time."

"it is good."

-

Minami Mori was dressed simply today and wore a mask.

After all, she is still a popular actress.

Mu was also dressed normally, nothing special.

Mother and daughter meet.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and then Mori Minami remembered that she had to play the role of a good mother.

It's just... it started so suddenly and stiffly, there was nothing she could do.

But when she thought about the money and the upcoming movie, Mori Minami still smiled.

"Mu...long time no see, how have you been lately?"

Mu clearly remembered the last time he went to find her, and how cold her tone was when she replied that he couldn't.

Unlike what I saw on TV, this was the first time I saw my mother smile in real life.

Mu felt quite emotional.

"Mom never spent enough time with you before, I'm really sorry... But now, I want to make it up to you, are you willing to give me this chance, really..."

Mu felt more and more confused as he listened to her emotionally rich lines.

It's fake and you can tell at a glance, not only because of the big difference between before and after, but also because... the way she looks at herself and the way her brother looks at her... are completely different.

Is this the kind of maternal love I have been expecting?

Mu found it very ironic and funny, but she planned to continue acting with Mori Minami to feel and experience it.

She probably understood...her brother's intention of asking her to come over.

Minami Mori was also surprised to see that Mu was willing to hold her hand spontaneously.

She was a little dazed for a moment, thinking back to the past, when she was a child, and when she faced Mu.

Because she is very beautiful, you can even say that she is a girl who looks like me.

Therefore, whenever I take her out to social events and introduce her, I always receive all kinds of praise.

That would make me feel very proud.

but now……

My daughter has grown up, and the feeling of holding her hand again is completely different.

-

Their first stop was the aquarium.

Mu had many regrets in her childhood, one of which was that she had never been to an aquarium, a place often visited by families and couples.

Now I can come here, hold my mother's hand, and watch the swimming fish and the blue water.

It was a very novel experience.

She looked at her mother beside her, she would show a very happy smile, and introduce this and that to her...

During this period, he was particularly concerned about me and even... shared some work matters with me.

My childhood self...

Did you see it?

I have realized your dream.

Even though I now know that this is just a lie, it has still been realized, right?

Mori Minami looked at the way Mu lowered her head, her delicate face, and her obedient reactions along the way.

As she acted, she became a little caught up in the role and couldn't tell whether she was just acting or really loving her daughter.

Come to think of it, does she really hate her daughter that much?

Mu is well-behaved and obedient, like a puppet, and she won't resist. I...is it really necessary to vent my anger on her?

Mori Minami fell into deep thought.

-

After the aquarium, we had lunch.

I followed Mu to taste the food in a relatively ordinary restaurant, asked her if she liked it, and cared about her taste. Everything seemed very natural.

Then I went shopping, bought clothes, and changed clothes for my daughter...

Mori Minami is increasingly able to appreciate the joy of caring for her daughter, the joy of having a bond with her...

She began to feel truly remorseful in her heart.
