Chapter 255 The Day of Change
Chiyoda, Jimbocho.
Kujo's mother walked back to the living room from the garden and handed the flower scissors to the servant.
"Mother?" Miki Kujo came down from upstairs neatly dressed.
"It's rare to see you getting up so early." Kujo's mother said with a smile.
Kujo Miki walked down the stairs and sat at the dining table. The servant brought breakfast.
"I heard that something unpleasant happened yesterday?" Kujo's mother sat next to her daughter, supporting her chin with her hands.
Her behavior, expression, and appearance were like those of a beautiful woman in her early twenties.
"Nothing." Miki Kujo drank some milk and quickly ate breakfast.
"You're staying in the hospital for a whole day for nothing? I heard those people from Jingliu were seriously injured?"
"Who told you that?"
"secret."
Kujo Miki put down her knife and fork, drank the milk in one gulp, and wiped her mouth: "I'm done."
She stood up from her seat and walked outside.
Mother Kujo looked at her daughter's back as she left.
"I underestimated you, Watanabe." She said to herself.
◇
When Miki Kujo rushed to the hospital, Toru Watanabe was already up.
She saw him standing by the window, his hands in his pockets, overlooking Tokyo in the early morning.
The relaxed demeanor and sure footed position on the ground indicate that the body has fully recovered.
"Meiji?" He turned around and smiled slowly.
The morning light fell on his handsome face, and Kujo Miki couldn't help but stare at him, lost in thought for a moment.
"Are you feeling well?" She walked over.
Watanabe Toru naturally reached out and held his beautiful girl in his arms.
Her clothes carried a little of the coolness from outside.
"Meiji, my Meiji, can I kiss you?" said Toru Watanabe.
Miki Kujo put her arms around his neck and kissed him.
The two kissed in front of the window as the sun rose.
The tall buildings in Tokyo are illuminated by the morning light one after another, and the glass windows inlaid on the buildings reflect the dazzling light .
They kept kissing until the tall buildings were all bathed in the morning light.
"Sister, you are so sweet." Toru Watanabe said with a reluctant smile.
"Brother is not bad either." Miki Kujo leaned in his arms contentedly.
After a while, Toru Watanabe gently pushed her away.
Kujo Miki asked why with her eyes, which were always beautiful.
"She's here." Toru Watanabe explained.
Kujo Miki frowned, then relaxed the next second. At the same time, her expression became contemptuous, cold, and arrogant.
When the cat Watanabe appeared on Kujo Miki's shoulder, "Koizumi Aona" traveled through ten years and came to this ward filled with sunshine and happiness.
"Good morning, Mr. Koizumi." Watanabe Cat took the initiative to greet.
"Good morning." After saying hello, "Koizumi Aona" looked at Kujo Miki.
Miki Kujo took the cat from Watanabe's shoulders and examined every part of the cat like a doctor doing a physical examination.
Eyeballs, ears, teeth, tongue, claws...
"Um," Koizumi Aona hesitated and suddenly bowed deeply, "I'm sorry!"
The cat Watanabe turned his head and looked at "Koizumi Aona".
Miki Kujo pressed the cat's head against her chest and carried him back to the sofa.
"Koizumi Aona" raised her head and followed over.
"I'm sorry about what happened yesterday and about occupying Watanabe's body!" She bowed again.
"What...ah!" Watanabe Cat was pushed back again.
His soft cat paws stepped on the softer chest, and he breathed in the air with great difficulty.
Miki Kujo was tidying up the cat's hair and ignoring "Aona Koizumi".
Koizumi Aona kept bowing and said:
"I have spent the entire day imagining my boyfriend being possessed by a woman. No matter how hard I try to forgive him, I just can't control myself. I completely understand how you feel, Kujo-san, and I'm really sorry!"
Kujo Miki caressed Watanabe Toru and replied coldly without raising her head:
"After this month, get out of here soon."
"Thanks."
After doing all this, "Koizumi Aona" raised her head as if relieved and smiled brightly.
"You actually made concessions." Qingye Rin walked in.
On Saturday, she wore a blue shirt-style dress with a belt around her waist, giving her a spring vibe.
"Kill Koizumi Aonai and let you take advantage of the situation?" Kujo Miki sneered, "She will forget the memory of this month when she returns. For Watanabe's sake, I will force myself to bear the grievance once."
"Miki..." Watanabe cat's glass-like eyes looked at her from Miki Kujo's arms.
"If it happens again, you'll just die." Miki Kujo rubbed the cat's head hard.
"I'm really sorry!" Koizumi Aona bowed again.
Miki Kujo glanced at her and said nothing more.
Qingye Rin put her hand on her chin and looked at Kujo Miki.
She didn't have any obvious reaction to the fact that "Koizumi Aona" occupied Watanabe Toru's body, simply because Watanabe Toru was not her boyfriend.
If the positions were reversed, could she achieve the level of Kujo Miki?
Assumptions are always assumptions. Unless you really face it, you will never know what she will do.
But one thing is certain, after this incident, Watanabe Toru stayed with Kujo Miki probably not just out of responsibility.
"You're harder to deal with than I thought, Meiji."
For a moment, Qingye Rin actually missed the two of them from their childhood.
The crying little girl turned into the cruel and ruthless Princess Kujo. Now, what kind of person is Princess Kujo?
It had become so complicated that she couldn't see clearly, from an absolute victory to something very tricky.
But that's all.
Victory will be yours sooner or later , and no one can resist your charm.
Kiyono Rin withdrew her gaze and looked at "Koizumi Aona".
She can see through lies and can tell at a glance whether an apology is sincere.
"You've grown a lot, Koizumi-san," said Kiyono Rin.
"Nothing." Koizumi Aina said shyly, "I just understood some things."
"What do you understand?" Watanabe Cat finally walked out of the valley.
"Koizumi Aona" looked at the two people and the cat in front of her, recalling everything that happened last night and her thoughts during the day.
"Before today, I have always thought about this from my own perspective. Coming to the future, occupying someone's body is not something I can control, so why should I be responsible?"
She paused here for a moment, then went on:
"But now, I want to consider Kujo's position. No matter what the other party's reasons are, her boyfriend is being taken over by a woman, and this is something that cannot be easily let go."
Qing Ye Lin whispered: "Thinking about things from your own perspective will turn into thinking about things from other people's perspectives, and you will lose yourself, but..."
She raised her head and said in a rare, slightly softer voice, "You have become gentler, Koizumi-san."
"Yes!" 'Koizumi Aona' smiled brightly and happily.
That smile was one that Toru Watanabe could never smile.
Maybe not as charming as Toru Watanabe, but there is something particularly touching about him.
"Koizumi Aona" said to Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki with this smile:
"Because, I met the most gentle person in the world yesterday."
The two young ladies and the two beautiful girls all looked at "Koizumi Aona" like this for a moment.
What on earth had happened to cause such a change in the girl who left crying and almost in despair yesterday?
The next second, the two smart guys understood.
Miki Kujo grabbed Cat Watanabe's neck.
"You are hiding something from me." She said coldly.
"I didn't..."
"Watanabe-san," said Koizumi Aona in a gentle and playful voice, "Don't lie~"
The cat Watanabe turned around and looked at "Koizumi Aona".
Traitor! —The cat's eye sent this word.
"I'm also interested, Watanabe Toru." There was a chill from the deepest part of the Arctic in Kiyono Rin's words.
"I confess." Faced with them, the great Watanabe Cat could only surrender.
In the following time, he talked about what happened in his dream yesterday.
After listening to this, Qingye Rin stroked his forehead and sighed helplessly.
"Power, wealth, extraordinary wisdom, outstanding appearance, and strong physique can make people arrogant and develop arbitrary personalities. Watanabe-san, you have all these, but you did such a thing. You are indeed the most gentle person in the world."
At this point, her face suddenly turned cold.
"But could you please not be gentle to everyone? It just makes people sick."
"Can you please not be so gentle to everyone?" Kujo Miki grabbed the cat's tail and looked at Watanabe cat at eye level. "Do you understand what I mean, my Watanabe, my Toru?"
So scary!
Super scary!
With its head down and its tail up, Toru Watanabe's face was frozen with fear.
◇
Watanabe Toru was discharged from the hospital that day. To be more precise, it was "Koizumi Aona" who walked out.
Kujo Miki had already made up her mind not to care about the matter, and since she was annoyed by the sight of "Koizumi Aona", she let her go freely.
Kiyono Rin was very interested in the Watanabe cat, but unfortunately she couldn't stay too far away from the main body. She was not interested in playing with "Koizumi Aona" and went home on her own.
"Koizumi Aona" returns to the Shinano-machi apartment with the nearly dead Watanabe cat.
"It's true. As long as you are truly gentle, even Kujo-san will let go of his anger." While getting on the elevator, 'Koizumi Aona' said to Watanabe Cat.
Watanabe Cat didn't say anything. There were surveillance cameras in the elevator.
"I used to think that gentleness that compromises with everyone is the most useless thing. It was not until yesterday that I realized that it is not true gentleness."
"Gentle, like Watanabe, you are truly gentle. You don't impose your will on others. When dealing with things, you reflect on yourself first, and then consider the position of others."
"I'm not that gentle." After getting out of the elevator, Watanabe Neko said, "I just don't impose my will on others. I like to reflect on myself. Other people's positions are not within my consideration."
"Then I will be a gentler person than you."
"Being too gentle will bring you harm, Mr. Koizumi."
"I'm just gentle, not stupid, don't worry."
"Can I make a suggestion?"
"Hmm? Go ahead."
"I've been holding it in for so long, can you please stop using my body to talk like that? 'Okay, don't do that, just ask her if you have any questions', I'm going crazy with the itch in my heart."
"I remember. I won't come next time. Don't worry."
"...Where's the gentleness you promised me, the consideration for other people's positions?"
"Hahaha, Watanabe, you are an exception."
"You're almost there."
When they arrived at Room 502, "Koizumi Aona" was taking out the key card to open the door when the door next door opened.
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning. Koizumi Aona, still wearing pajamas and with red and swollen eyes, looked at the man and the cat in front of her.
Before the cat Watanabe could react, Koizumi Aona had already hugged "Koizumi Aona".
She was like a sister, like a mother, holding her past self in her arms, crying and saying:
"Xiao Nai."
『Koizumi Aona』 reached out and hugged her future self, comforting her:
"Okay, okay, I'm fine. Everything is over. Before going to bed at night, my mother praised me for growing up today."
"Xiao Nai." Koizumi Aona was still crying.
"Stop crying. If you keep going like this, I won't want to live anymore. I'm 25 years old and I'm still crying like this. I'm so embarrassed that I want to die."
The two comforted each other.
The cat Watanabe looked at Koizumi "Aona" and squatted there comfortably.
Even though he was scolded badly by Kiyono Rin and forced to write a letter of apology by Kujo Miki, as long as he could see this scene in front of him, it didn't matter even if he was scolded for the rest of his life and had to write a letter of apology every day.
Confession...
Even if he does nothing, it seems he will keep writing for the rest of his life.
Two people and a cat walked into Room 502.
"Watanabe, I'm sorry. Actually, I dream about the past every day. Because I was shy, I didn't have the courage to admit it, which led to what happened yesterday."
Koizumi Aona confessed everything, and warm tears flowed from her beautiful eyes again.
"Teacher, I also said yesterday that there is no need to regret the past. You will never be happy if you do that. What we should do now is to take Xiao Xiaoquan with us and make the most of the last three weeks to go out and have fun."
"Yes, let's go play together!" Koizumi Aonai said happily, "I want to go to Sensō-ji Temple to draw lots, go to Ueno Zoo to see pandas, and go to Tsukiji Market to eat all kinds of delicious food!"
Aona Koizumi was infected by her emotions and smiled with tears in her eyes.
"Yeah!" she said.
"Hurry up and set off now!" "Koizumi Aona" took Koizumi Aona's hand.
"Wait a moment." Koizumi Aona held her hand, "I'm going to change my clothes."
"Dress nicely. I want to appreciate myself."
Koizumi Aona's face suddenly turned red, and the touch on her hand became strange and ambiguous.
This is Watanabe's hand, and I'm about to go out and play with Watanabe's body - similar thoughts kept flooding into my mind.
"Then I'll go back first. See you downstairs in twenty minutes." She ran away.
When Koizumi Aona returned to Room 501, she ran into Akiko who had just woken up. Her heart, which was already pounding, almost jumped out like a rabbit.
She held her throat as if there was really a rabbit there.
"Do you have a sore throat? Your face is so red, do you have a cold?" Akiko asked in confusion.
"I choked on my food." Koizumi Aona said with a dry throat.
"Oh, that's good." Akiko took a sip of water, "Aina, where are we going to play later?"
"Well, sorry, I'm busy this week."
"What's up?"
The three of them lived together, worked in the same school, and had almost no privacy from each other.
"Yeah." Koizumi Aona nodded reluctantly.
The last time she asked for money, she had already been misunderstood. Now that Akiko and Miyuki saw her with her past self, it would be even more difficult to explain.
Without waiting for Akiko to continue asking, she went back to her room.
About fifteen minutes later, Akiko, who was watching TV in the living room, saw Koizumi Aona, who was wearing a beautiful dress, and she walked out without saying hello.
"Why are you so sneaky?" She stuffed a potato chip into her mouth.
"surreptitiously?!"
Without even putting on her shoes, she ran to the balcony, leaned out and looked towards the apartment door.
After a while, Koizumi Aona appeared there.
Then, Toru Watanabe appears with a cat.
The handsome man and the beautiful woman were talking and laughing as they walked towards the station.
On the way, Akiko also saw Koizumi Aona give some money to Watanabe Toru.
"It's over, it's over!"
She rushed into Miyuki Miyazaki's room barefoot without knocking.
"Miyuki, Miyuki, something bad has happened!"
"Hmm..." Miyazaki Miyuki moaned as if she hadn't woken up yet, "What's wrong?"
Akiko shook her body vigorously.
"Aonai went out on a date with that Watanabe guy! I even saw her giving him money!"
Miyazaki Miyuki was shaken so hard that she could only hold up her upper body.
"It's just a date, let her go." She said lazily.
"A date! And you're using Qingnai as your wallet!"
"Yeah, yes, but that was Qingnai's own decision. She's 25 years old and has never been in a relationship in her life. It's time for her to experience it once."
Akiko chased after him: "But that kid has already..."
"No result? The ending is obvious? As long as it starts sweetly, it's fine. Regardless of whether he's a philanderer or not, Watanabe is good enough and in good health, and he will make Qingna spend some happy time."
"He already has a girlfriend, and Qingnai is still a teacher!"
"It's spring now. What's wrong with being a little willful occasionally? After all , we two are here to keep her company. Even if she gets scammed of all her money, don't we still have ours?"
"That being said...ah, what's going on? After hearing what you said, I suddenly want to fall in love too."
"Uh-huh."
"What's your attitude? By the way, how do you know he's in good health?"
"Didn't I check on him the day he fainted?"
Akiko lowered her voice guiltily: "How old?"
"It has nothing to do with you, right?" Miyazaki Miyuki did not disclose the patient's privacy.
"Why? You know, Qingnai will know soon too, but I don't know. This isn't fair!"
"What does this have to do with fairness? Go out and don't disturb my sleep." Miyuki Miyazaki lay down again.
"You should change your habit of sleeping without clothes. Maybe Qingnai will bring that boy back to spend the night."
"Isn't the next door enough for them to deal with?"
"That's hard to say. What if that guy is afraid of being discovered by his girlfriend and chooses our place as the venue?"
Miyazaki Miyuki has fallen asleep.
