[Every day, mealtime is Guan Yuejing’s favorite scene, especially when she eats at home, even though this home is not the old house she is used to.]
[She happily went downstairs, threw herself at the dining table, and threw herself towards her mother. She thought the sumptuous dishes foreshadowed warmth and happiness. She didn't know that the warm firelight was a false illusion.]
[You are the projectionist of the illusion.]
[You received a call from the company and left the table. The illusion collapsed, the fire scene suddenly stopped, and the wind broke the curtain, blowing cold air in.]
[Yuko Moriya, who treated her daughter tenderly when you were there, only wanted to think about her poker and mahjong after you left. She ignored Jing Guanyue.]
[Looking at the moon, she thought quietly that her mother was just in a bad mood today and not in the mood to chat. Two years ago, this happened occasionally. At that time, not only did her mother ignore her, but even her father ignored her.]
[As long as a while passes, everything will be fine.]
[Does she really think so? Is she ignorant, or is she deceiving herself?]
[No matter which one it is, the result is disillusionment. ]
[In the following days, you were often not at home, and Yuko Moriya's attitude towards her daughter did not change at all. On the days you said you would not go home, she would not go home either. Jing Guanyue stayed at home alone, and was taken care of by the nanny you hired.]
[The girl finally put aside her fantasy and summed up the truth. She knew that only when you are at home, by her side, will your mother become a gentle mother. ]
[She thought of the morning glory she planted when she was a child. The flowers opened in the morning and closed at noon. The mother is the flower and the morning sun is you. She does not exist in this ecology.]
[This discovery depressed her and caused her to change her attitude.]
[She realized that she needed you, her mother needed you.]
[Your goal has been achieved.]
[You have already handed the company over to Mrs. Ichinose. All the calls from the company asking you to work overtime were lies. This was a trap you set up to let Guan Yuejing know the truth, so that you can better coerce Guan Yuejing.]
[When you ask a girl for a kiss, she will take the initiative to kiss you.]
Turning her attention away from the simulation interface, Minami Youxi watched the development of the plot in shock.
I didn’t expect that I would be such a person!
She is still a child! To scheme and coerce a female elementary school student like this is too - delightful!
Nan Youxi recalled all the things that the adult Guan Yuejing had done for her, and encouraged herself in the simulated life in her heart.
The only thing that worries him is whether such forced intimacy can really bring Guan Yuejing closer to him? In order to make Guan Yuejing get rid of her dependence on her mother, he must replace Moritani Yuko as a stepfather.
Then he thought, this is not impossible.
Just like him and Nao Asano, their relationship at the beginning was one of coercion and being coerced.
The Sims themselves should understand Guan Yuejing better and believe that they will make the right choice.
Nan Youxi continued to read the simulated text. He felt a little dizzy and the memory scene was about to appear.
[Guan Yuejing is a little uneasy. She has observed you and Moritani Yuko a lot and found that your relationship is not good. ]
[She found that you rarely communicate with your mother, you never hug or kiss your mother, and more importantly, you and your mother sleep in different rooms.]
[She thinks about the novels, TV dramas, and rumors she has heard and believes that your marriage is on the verge of collapse.]
[When she thought about you divorcing Mom and Mom going back to her previous scary self, Guan Yuejing felt very panicked. ]
[She is making her own efforts.]
[It’s the weekend, Yuko Moritani is out playing mahjong, and only you and Jing Guanyue are at home. ]
Memory scenes emerge.
As spring break approaches, the temperature has warmed up a bit, and the cherry blossom trees in the yard are blooming with pink.
Guan Yuejing passed by the window holding a Coke. She stopped and looked into the yard.
Yesterday, her mother stood in front of this window and spoke to her stepfather, a rare occasion when she was not around.
She learned from her mother's words that her mother had won a big prize and was showing off, boasting about her skills and techniques, wanting to see admiring surprise on her face.
She was indeed surprised, but that surprise was not admiration, but fear.
Yuko Moritani told Shizuka Kanzuki's grandparents that she had completely quit her gambling addiction. Her grandparents may have believed her or may not have believed her, but Shizuka Kanzuki really believed it.
She didn't expect that her mother was still touching that abyss.
Yuko Moritani did not hear any words of admiration from her daughter's mouth. On the contrary, Jing Guanyue carefully advised her not to touch that abyss again.
The pride in Yuko Moritani's eyes turned into resentment, and the malice in her eyes was even greater than when the lunch money disappeared.
She reached out her hand and pinched her daughter's cheek with her fingers. Guan Yuejing closed her eyes in panic, and prepared herself mentally. Her mother often pulled her cheek to teach her a lesson, and she thought it would be the same today.
However, the fingers that her mother used to pinch her face were not strong enough. She opened her eyes and saw that her mother's palm had moved to her shoulder. She tensed her body again, waiting for the pain to come.
There was no pain, only her mother's staring eyes. Her mother lowered her hands, and after a short silence, the uneasy look in her eyes disappeared, and she looked at her mother's back.
Guan Yuejing was very confused at the time, confused as to why her mother didn't pinch her face or the flesh on her shoulders.
At this moment, her gaze shifted from the cherry tree outside the window back to the Coke bottle in her hand, her eyes following the bubbles tumbling in it, and Guan Yuejing suddenly understood.
That’s because of my stepfather. My mother didn’t want him to find out that I was injured.
The figure of her stepfather appeared in her mind, she took a step, quickly climbed the stairs and opened the door of the game room.
Nan Youxi was lying on the sofa, with the latest game screen projected on the big screen in front of her.
"Dad, have some Coke!" Guan Yuejing quickly walked to Nan Youxi's side and put the Coke on the small table.
Nan Youxi paused the game, put down the controller, and touched her hair.
"What time is it now?" he asked.
"It's almost six o'clock." Guan Yuejing answered nervously. The six o'clock here refers to the afternoon.
"Is your mother back?" Nan Youxi asked again.
"No." Guan Yuejing lowered her head, feeling even more uneasy. She secretly glanced at Nan Youxi's expression.
Seeing the man frown, Guan Yuejing quickly picked up the controller and diverted her stepfather's attention: "Dad, what game is this?"
As she spoke, she squeezed into the man's arms.
Nan Youxi poked the girl's face, hugged her, and taught her how to operate the character in the game.
He knew the girl was trying to change the subject, and he had no intention of continuing the conversation.
According to the detective report he commissioned, Yuko Moritani had made several new gambling friends and was addicted to playing mahjong every day.
The gambling addiction eroded Yuko Moritani's sanity, making her lazy and unbridled. In recent days, except at night, Minami Yuxi rarely saw Yuko Moritani, which violated their prenuptial agreement.
The detective also brought another piece of news: the amount of money spent playing mahjong between Yuko Moritani and her friends was not small.
The pocket money he gave to Yuko Moritani was also not small, but it was still very difficult to continue this level of gambling.
Just as he had long realized, for a gambler, there was no difference between 10,000 yuan and 10 million yuan. There was no doubt that Yuko Moritani was already in debt, and the amount was not small.
Nan Youxi thought again that the people who lent her money probably never thought of getting the money back from her, and they would definitely come after her in the end.
What should we do with Yuko Moritani when the creditors come knocking
He had some expectations, and this expectation came from Guan Yuejing who was beside him.
It is quite reasonable for a daughter to pay off her mother's debt.
However, his daughter next to him was still thinking about letting her mother pay it back herself.
"Dad, why don't you go to Mom's house to sleep at night?" Guan Yuejing controlled the character to a safe area and started her own plan.
She thought that she must save her father and mother's marriage.
"What are you going to do at mom's place?" Nan Youxi asked back.
Guan Yuejing blushed. As a sixth-grade Japanese child, she already vaguely knew something about the relationship between men and women.
