Chapter 277 Family Trip (10)

Watanabe Toru rowed the boat and the three of them came to the center of the lake.

The lake water is crystal clear, and the blue sky and white cumulus clouds are reflected on the bottom of the lake.

Their small boat seemed to be traveling above the clouds, eight thousand meters in the sky.

"At night, the stars in the sky may all fall into the lake." After saying this, Watanabe Toru chanted in Chinese, "Looking for dreams? Strike a long pole and row upstream to where the grass is greener; fill a boat with starlight and sing in the splendor of the stars."

Qing Ye Lin sat on the bow, her long hair swaying in the breeze, and she also said in Chinese:

"After getting drunk, I didn't realize that the sky was over the water, and the boat was filled with sweet dreams that overwhelmed the stars."

"Have you also started studying Chinese poetry like Nagai Kafu?" asked Toru Watanabe.

"Nagai Kafu is not the only one who studies Chinese poetry. Oh, sorry," Kiyono Rin said with a smile, covering her mouth slightly, "Did you know that Nagai Kafu is the only writer who studies Chinese poetry?"

"Qiono-san, has anyone ever scolded you for speaking badly?"

"Apart from you and Kujo-san, no one has dared to scold me."

"You two have a good understanding of each other." Miki Kujo said with a smile.

Watanabe Toru stopped paddling and looked at her: "Meiji, I..."

"No need to explain." Kujo Miki interrupted him, "I don't want anything else for our anniversary gift. Just answer a few questions for me honestly."

At that time, many thoughts flashed through Watanabe Toru's mind, but in the end he chose to nod.

"Okay," he said.

Qingye Rin crossed her arms and looked at the two of them indifferently.

Kujo Miki glanced at her, then looked at Watanabe Toru:

"I won't ask Qing Ye Lin for help, but I have nothing to say if you choose to lie to me on our anniversary and in front of ."

Watanabe Toru remained silent.

The wind blew across the lake, and the small boat without the control of Watanabe Toru was left alone between heaven and earth, with no idea which direction it was drifting.

"Do you have a woman outside?"

Watanabe Toru's heart contracted and began beating wildly, almost jumping out of his chest.

Apart from that, there was no change in his appearance.

"With you here, Meiji, I wouldn't do that even if I wanted to." When it came to my lips, it became: "Yes."

Why?

Watanabe Toru asked himself.

Knowing Kujo Miki's character, and knowing that answering like this would put Asuka Mai and Koizumi Aona in danger, why did she still answer like that?

Don’t want to cheat on Kujo Miki on your relationship anniversary?

Don't want to lie in front of Qingye Rin?

Yes, I don’t want to.

There's more to it than that.

Somewhere deep in my heart, there has always been a hidden thought: "I should confess everything to Meiji, and the two of us will have no secrets, no grudges, and live a good life from now on."

"How do you know?" Watanabe Toru's voice was dry and his throat was dry.

"I didn't send anyone to follow you, but as a girlfriend, are you really indifferent to your boyfriend's new address? You don't pay any attention to the woman who has possessed your boyfriend's body?"

Kujo Miki sneered and continued:

"Watanabe Toru, you are amazing. The news that Koizumi Aina receives a bouquet of roses every day has spread all over the school. Do you think I am deaf?"

"……sorry."

"With your caution, why would you do such an obvious thing? Do you like that teacher so much?" Kujo Miki asked harshly.

"Of the three of you, of course, I like you best, Meiji, but we have already decided to be together, and I don't want to disappoint them." Watanabe Toru replied painfully, "You can punish me however you want, but please let them go."

He let go of the oars with both hands, rested his elbows on his knees, and placed his palms on his forehead.

"I won't do anything, but you have to leave them."

Watanabe Toru remained silent.

He has been doing this multiple-choice question every day since the first day he was with Asuka Mai.

Until now, when he really has to make a choice, he still has no answer.

"I was planning to do this," said Kujo Miki. "I used your guilt for deceiving me, threatened their safety and lives, and said, 'I only think about you, what about you?', so that you would stay with me alone."

Watanabe Toru was even more miserable.

'I'm only thinking of you, what about you?' These words brought him great sadness.

A thought subconsciously popped up in his mind: Meiji is going to leave me?

The next moment the thought came to my mind, before I even had time to think, an instinctive emotion came up - absolutely not, this is not allowed.

Kujo Miki looked deeply at Watanabe Toru and asked in a voice that almost seemed to want to tear him apart:

"Last night, why did you only say 'I won't leave me' and not answer how much you loved me?"

"I..." Watanabe Toru was speechless and unable to speak.

"You are resentful of me for killing you before, and you are worried that I will find out that you have a lover, so you dare not love me?" Kujo Miki's tone seemed as if she was stating a fact.

"I love you, that's the absolute truth."

"But you love Kiyono Rin more?"

"..." Watanabe Toru was speechless.

Qing Ye Lin glanced at him and said calmly: "Since you don't plan to let Watanabe-san leave them, what are you going to do, Kujo-san?"

Miki Kujo stood up, walked on the slightly shaking board, and walked to Toru Watanabe.

"Lift your face," she ordered.

Watanabe Toru raised his face.

He actually felt better when Kujo Miki wanted to hit him.

But Kujo Miki didn't hit him.

She looked him in the eyes and said, "Once at Ochanomizu, once at Kamikawa Gymnasium, I owe you twice... I allow you to support those two women."

Watanabe Toru had a lot of things he wanted to say, but he was so surprised that he couldn't say them.

"If you do it a third time, don't blame me for doing it the last time. I can't kill you, but none of them will survive."

"Miji, don't worry." Watanabe Toru made up his mind.

He had made the same promise to different people and would never break his promise.

Kujo Miki stretched out her right hand and pointed her index finger at Watanabe Toru's forehead:

"From today on, love me well."

"From today on, I will love you well."

Miki Kujo's fingers started from the center of his eyebrows, slid down along Watanabe Toru's nose, and all the way to his lips.

"Remember what you said to me today." She pressed her fingers on Watanabe Toru's lips.

The slender white fingers continued to slide down and slid down from Watanabe Toru's chin. At the same time, Kujo Miki's long hair fluttered and she turned to look at Kiyono Rin.

"Kiyono Rin, you once said that your opponent is not me, but Watanabe Toru's sense of responsibility. So, what about now? From now on, it's not just about sense of responsibility."

Without waiting for the gloomy Kiyono Rin to speak, the deepest and most real feelings lurking in Kujo Miki's heart made her say the following:

"I won."

It was quiet all around, and the boat was circling in the middle of the lake.

The white cumulus clouds reflected in the water created ripples, as if wind was blowing from eight thousand meters in the sky.

"I am very surprised," Qing Ye Lin said calmly, "I didn't expect that you would be willing to share Watanabe Toru with others."

"Share?" Kujo Miki sneered, "It's just a tool for me and Watanabe to reconcile. Two good-for-nothing lovers, are they worthy of sharing?"

"I am already surprised that you are willing to reconcile with Watanabe Toru."

"Who made me a greedy woman, no longer satisfied that he would not leave me."

"It's also because of me, right?" Qingye Rin said affirmatively, "If there was no threat from me, you would have simply dealt with those two people. Anyway, even if Watanabe Toru hates you for this, he still won't let you leave him."

"Who knows?" Kujo Miki said meaningfully, "Maybe even without you, I would make the same decision."

"Forget it. Whatever happens, I admit that you are ahead for now."

"Temporarily ahead?" Kujo Miki laughed, "You are still as confident as ever. Do you think you are the only one who understands Watanabe Toru? You have already lost, loser!"

"…Loser?" Qingye Rin repeated the word in disbelief.

Toru Watanabe pretended not to hear and admired the cumulus clouds in the sky. The shape of the clouds looked like Eriri.

"There are some things I don't want to say," Qing Ye Lin stood up and brushed the long hair off her shoulders, "but in order to prevent you from being carried away by the temporary victory, it seems necessary to say it."

"The struggle of a loser?" Miki Kujo crossed her arms and looked at her with a smile.

"Defeat..." Qingye Lin took a deep breath, "Since you are not polite, don't blame me."

"Speak." Kujo Miki didn't care.

“Watanabe Toru fell in love with Asuka Mai because Asuka Mai had to either be with him or die;

Watanabe Toru fell in love with Koizumi Aona because of Koizumi Aona's ten years of persistence;

Watanabe Toru fell in love with you because you threatened his parents' lives and stayed with you temporarily."

Then, Qing Ye Lin sneered and said the last sentence:

"Watanabe Toru fell in love with me, he really loved me, there was no external factor."

"Not only that," Kujo Miki sneered, "Even if I say now that he can keep those two women, the person he loves most is still you."

"You are very self-aware."

"So what?" Kujo Miki smiled, a smile different from any other smile she had ever had before.

She seemed to have walked out of a tunnel of intrigue and intrigue and onto a sunny country road.

"Even though I killed him twice, he still fell in love with me, let alone now? The past is completely over. Do you think he can resist my charm?"

Miki Kujo walked forward and the two of them got closer.

Kiyono Rin could clearly see her own reflection in Kujo Miki's eyes.

"You, and those two women," Kujo Miki whispered, "I will make him forget everything. I want all his love."

"Is this what you want now?" Qing Ye Lin replied in a voice so low that only the two of them could hear, "I have had it from the beginning, and now, I will slowly take it back. Don't cry, Miki."

"Don't come begging me even if you lose. The quota for lovers is full, Rin."

After rowing, the five people gathered on the shore.

"I have a suggestion," said Toru Watanabe.

The four looked at him .

"Let's move the tent here and camp by the lake on the top of the mountain at night. We camped on the grassland last night and will camp by the lake tonight. How about it?" he asked the four people with a smile.

"Good idea!" Mrs. Kujo nodded, "But I'll leave the heavy luggage to you."

"certainly."

"What's going on?" Mrs. Kiyono asked with a smile, "After returning from boating, it seems that Watanabe-kun is in a much better mood."

"Miki said she loves me." Watanabe Toru said with a smile.

"Meiji is so bold!" Mrs. Kujo exclaimed in pretended surprise.

Kujo Miki snorted disdainfully without commenting.

Mrs. Kiyono glanced at her daughter, and Kiyono Rin had a blank expression on her face.

Toru Watanabe was very happy, even excited.

Before today, he and Asuka Mai had only gone out on a date once during the day, which was on the day they moved to Jiyugaoka.

As for Aona Koizumi, although they were already lovers, apart from hugging, they never did anything that lovers should do, and they never went to see a movie together.

But from now on, there is no need to go out of Shinjuku District and stay away from Chiyoda District.

In the end, he reconciled with Kujo Miki, and the two became one mind and one body, truly equal, and became a real couple.

Toru Watanabe suddenly thanked himself for going to Ochanomizu.

How can there be such wonderful things in the world?

I originally thought that there would be an unspeakable gap between me and Kujo Miki that would last a lifetime; I originally thought that I would have to hide the matter between Asuka Mai and Koizumi Aona for the rest of my life, but when these two things came together, everything suddenly became clear.

Fate, perhaps in the distant past, has really decided everything.

The five people began to move their luggage and camped by the lake again.

Watanabe Toru was full of energy and didn't care if his exaggerated physical strength was discovered. As long as he could get it, he would take it all away in one go.

"This is incredible," Mrs. Kujo looked at the heavy load on Toru Watanabe's back, "Our Kujo family has found an incredible son-in-law. The genes of our descendants will be even better."

"I can't guarantee that!" Watanabe Toru said with a smile, "I am just an ordinary farmer's child. Suddenly my genes have improved."

"As long as she's not ugly, it's fine, but she has to be smart," Kujo Miki made a request.

"Meiji!" Mrs. Kujo said dissatisfiedly, "You are a girl, don't get involved in this kind of topic."

Miki Kujo said to Toru Watanabe: "I will sleep with you tonight."

"It's shameful." Mrs. Kujo turned her head and looked at Mrs. Kiyono, "Don't tell anyone about this. The Kujo noble family will lose face."

"It depends on my mood." Mrs. Kiyono said with a smile.

At noon, have a barbecue by the lake.

Instead of using the prepared barbecue grill, Toru Watanabe built a fire pit with rocks.

It was a blessing in disguise. Although Kujo Miki's "Watanabe Toru, you're so awesome" was not a compliment, she completed mission one and received a camping gift pack.

Among the three master-level skills of "fishing", "picking" and "barbecuing", Toru Watanabe directly chose "barbecuing".

The red and white beef is very beautiful, dipped in sauce and pepper salt, tender and juicy without being greasy ;

Pork belly looks delicious.

Grill until golden on both sides, with fat bursting and the meat a little crispy, and pair it with a big sip of drink;

The Wagyu belly meat has just the right amount of fat and lean meat, and it smells so good that even the fish run to the lake and open their mouths wide.

After eating and drinking, Mrs. Qingye put on her straw hat and said in a melodious and pleasant tone: "Let's go to the hillside to take a nap and bask in the sun!"

The crowd slowly came to the hillside covered with wild flowers.

The two ladies chatted on the blanket, ate fruit, and let Kujo Miki and Kiyono Rin draw pictures for them;

Toru Watanabe lay on the grassy ridge with his hands behind his head, watching the changing white clouds in the sky for a while, and then watching the two people concentrating on painting.

At about two o'clock, the two ladies fell asleep.

Kiyono Rin sat under a birch tree, kneeling down to read a book;

Miki Kujo lay next to Toru Watanabe, her head resting on his chest, and the two snuggled together.

"How much do you love me?"

"Love you very very much."

"How much is very very?"

"forever."

"How long is forever?"

"Always."

"How long has it been?"

"The flowers on this hillside bloomed and then withered."

"that's all?"
