Chapter 21 This is a reverse routine
Thanks to her birth environment, Suzuki Sonoko's life trajectory has always been very simple.
To simply summarize her daily life, it is: live happily, when problems arise, solve them, and continue to live happily.
Specifically, when a fourteen-year-old becomes infertile, the process is: choose a blind date partner, the blind date fails, continue to choose a blind date partner, and continue to fail.
Now, God has pointed out a bright and clear path for her failed blind dates.
——Change your partner to a woman.
Although a solution has been found to the problem of failed blind dates, it still faces various pressures in its implementation.
Suzuki Shiro's meaning is very simple. It doesn't matter whether she likes a man or a woman in the end, but no matter what, she has to continue dating (learning) and kissing (learning). Even if every girl she dates turns out to be a bad girl, she has to work hard to reach the professional level required to graduate.
Tomoko Suzuki is even simpler.
Although she did not believe in ghosts and gods, as mentioned earlier, her main purpose was to find a legal worker to help with the garden work and ensure that her little daughter would not have a relapse of mental retardation.
It doesn’t matter whether this laborer does her husband’s work or not.
So it doesn’t matter whether he is a boy or a girl, at most we can use surrogacy!
During that period, Jingjiang found many world-class surrogacy agencies. Having a child was no big deal!
Anyway, her daughter doesn’t have dead sperm!
As for my uncle Suzuki Jirokichi...
Although Suzuki Jirokichi scoffed at feudal superstitions, he actually had a person he really liked earlier, but for various reasons, he was unable to marry her into the family as a son-in-law.
Then, his second favorite man, Reisi Munakata, ran away inexplicably, so among the remaining people, he had no objection to whoever Sonoko wanted to marry.
Men and women... isn't that the case?
So for the Suzuki family now, no, for Suzuki Sonoko, the first and foremost issue is to find a way to make himself fall in love with girls.
Realizing she had absolutely no patience for most girls, Sonoko simplified the problem further.
——Find a way to fall in love with Xiaolan first!
The specific operation process is not easy to grasp. Not to mention Xiaolan's clear rejection, she doesn't even believe that Sonoko likes her!
But to be honest, Sonoko herself was not sure whether she had the courage to really do that with Xiaolan.
Life is indeed so difficult...
Suzuki Sonoko hesitated for several nights, and still wasn't sure whether she liked Xiaolan or not, so she called her experienced ex-ex-ex-ex-fiancé and long-term online friend, Mr. Ximen Sojiro.
At the same time, at Yingde College on the other side of the city, it was lunchtime.
The bustling restaurant was filled with a long but not chaotic aroma. Makino Shancai dragged the transfer student Sanjo Sakurako tiredly and finally found a corner away from the crowd to sit down. After taking a few deep breaths, she finally succeeded in suppressing the strong desire to complain in her heart.
——After all, she is in this school. Even if everyone in the school looks like a lunatic in her eyes, she has to endure it for the sake of Yingde’s diploma!
She looked at the cautious girl opposite her and opened the lunch box with deep emotion. Fortunately, there was finally a normal person among this group of psychopaths.
Sakurako Sanjo is very pretty, the kind of pretty that is delicate like a doll, and also a little shy and timid.
Shancai doesn’t know if it’s this natural timidity that makes her different from those domineering young ladies, but to be honest, attending such a neurotic school, it’s good enough to meet a normal person with whom she can communicate. Is it meaningful to find out whether the reason for her normality is that she is naturally good-tempered or timid?
Actually, there are.
In the brief moment after the meal ended, Sanjo Sakurako bumped into Daoming Si Si and got covered in vegetable soup. Suddenly, she seemed to be frightened and her legs went weak, and she began to cry silently.
When Makino Shancai subconsciously stood in front of her, confronted the school's chief psychopath, and behaved in a completely different way from her usual principle of "keeping a low profile and not causing trouble for the sake of her diploma", she belatedly realized that there actually was one.
Because this girl named Sanjo did show some sincerity when treating her, so when Sanjo Sakurako was so timid that she could only cry, wasn't she just offering herself to die in her place?
It was difficult to get off the tiger's back, and Makino Shancai held on with great difficulty.
The noise in the restaurant stopped instantly, and even the rich fragrance in the air seemed to linger in a corner. Daomingsi raised the corner of his mouth and sneered maliciously, and the air in the room began to flow again in a subtle atmosphere.
The students in the room were all in a state of twisted and suppressed expectation, quietly waiting for him to do something.
Daomingsi picked up the plate on the table.
Daomingsi held the leftovers above the provocateur's head!
Daomingsi’s wrist is about to break!
However, at the critical moment when the sauce was about to fall on Shancai's hair, soft music suddenly came from the room.
Someone's cell phone rang.
As Daomingsi turned his head with a fierce look in his eyes, the already oppressive air in the room suddenly became thin and suffocating. Ximen Sojiro leaned lazily on the handrail at the entrance of the stairs, smiled calmly, and took out a flashing mobile phone from his pocket.
When Mei Zuoling saw the slight smile on Ximen's lips when he looked at the screen, she felt such a headache that she wanted to hit him with a hammer to wake him up.
Ah, here we go again.
Mimasaka Ling dropped the bag in her hand with a click of her tongue: To be honest, this woman from the Suzuki family is too cunning, isn't she?
An engagement is about two people getting married, but once the engagement is broken, it means that the two people have no relationship anymore, okay?
As for the peace and harmony between the two parties, that is only between the consortiums. At most, they can give more profits in the cooperation plan. Which engaged couple would still be friends after breaking up?
It would be fine if they didn't see each other. She tried to make her presence felt no matter what. Was she afraid that Ximen would forget her?
Thinking of this, he became even angrier. The matter of the Suzuki family recruiting a son-in-law was no small matter. That woman herself was still looking for fiancés one after another, while here she was hanging on to Ximen without any form...
Does she really not need to marry for the sake of the family after becoming Ximen?
Facing Daomingsi's fierce and biting eyes as he was interrupted in the middle of his temper, Ximen Sojiro answered the phone slowly, his voice as gentle as ever.
He didn't even bother to greet me. After the call was connected, he patiently asked, "Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
An expression of disbelief appeared on Mei Zuo Ling's face.
"Oh," a delicate and pleasant male voice ignored the frozen restaurant scene and asked the other end of the microphone, "What does it feel like to like a girl?"
The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Ximen Soujiro stood at the stairs, adjusted himself to a comfortable position, and asked jokingly, "Isn't it a little late to ask this now? I saw the photos you sent me earlier and thought you were planning to marry that Miss Xiaolan."
On the phone, Suzuki Sonoko, who was troubled by love, plopped down into the pile of pillows.
[I definitely have no objection to marrying Xiaolan, but the prerequisite is that I have to make sure whether I like her or not. If I am sure that I don’t like her, then I have to work hard to learn how to like her!]
Suzuki Sonoko's voice was filled with frank seriousness and distress: "If I don't like Xiaolan but still marry her, then it would be so unfair to Xiaolan that she won't be loved by her partner even though she's married!"
Ximen Zongjilang listened with an unchanged expression, thinking to himself, why didn't you think about whether it was unfair to me at that time? Didn't you still want to cooperate with me happily?
Of course, he would never say this.
There are two sets of independently running logic in Suzuki Sonoko's mind. If Ximen dares to ask this question, she can retort without any guilt, saying "You are different from her", "Marrying into a wife's family through a marriage alliance is not the same as marrying Xiaolan", "We are originally a cooperation, but there is a friendship between Xiaolan and I", and so on.
She didn't even need to say anything. Ximen could imagine it all while listening to her complain.
Before hanging up the phone, Ximen Soujiro kindly made an appointment with her, saying that he would find time to meet her and talk in detail. He would try to give her some guidance and would help her become a qualified lesbian no matter what.
After listening to him coaxing people with his soft voice, Mei Zuoling felt that he was simply crazy.
Daomingsi was interrupted by this and finally remembered the temper he was about to lose. He adjusted his expression and prepared to find another bowl of leftovers to throw at the annoying commoner.
Before he could pick out a bowl that he liked, Mei Zuoling, who was so angry that her head hurt, got furious.
"What the hell is this for?!"
He slapped the railing beside him and met Ximen's eyes with a look of disappointment: "Does she only call when she has something to do? I remember she broke up with the Feng family a while ago. Now that there is no one around to follow her around, she thought of looking for you, right?"
If Mimasaka Rei were to say, feelings don't have a shelf life. Although it's easy to take things seriously when you're young, if they really break up without a clear beginning or end, people will forget about them over time. But that daughter of the Suzuki family... she...
She really never wanted to leave Simon alone.
Every once in a while, you have to find an excuse to look for him - you say that you can't meet, but you keep telling him what's wrong with you. Aren't you deliberately trying to make him miss you?
And as soon as she broke up with her fiancé, she asked Ximen out. How many times has this happened?!
In Yingde, a school full of psychopaths, Daoming Sisi's deterrent power is second to none, but in terms of terrifyingness, Meizu Ling is the most outstanding one.
After all, their family is a legitimate gangster, the kind of big gang that robs and sells arms.
If you go against the conglomerate, at most you will be crushed by the power and unable to survive. If the struggle fails, you will just commit suicide. But if you go against the underworld, then there is no need to struggle at all. You can just drink cement and have a happy reunion with your family in Tokyo Bay.
From the moment Mimasaka Rei kicked the table, people in the restaurant began to run out one after another. Soon the hall was empty and Sanjo Sakurako's crying stopped.
Shancai originally wanted to run away, and she was quite glad: although she didn't know what had happened, if these four lunatics gathered together to fight, her heroic act today might be overshadowed.
After all, she still wants Yingde's diploma.
Unfortunately, she was standing too close to Daomingsi. If she moved, the young master's attention might be diverted back to her. Before she could find a suitable opportunity to escape, Ximen Soujiro, who was leaning on the armrest as motionless as a mountain, suddenly yawned.
"I told you," he said, looking back at Meizu, "Sonoko doesn't have that kind of brain."
"...Isn't it more terrifying to be unconscious?"
Mei Zuo curled her lips and said, "Because she didn't realize it and did something annoying, you can't blame her for anything."
"That's true," Ximen thought for a moment, then shifted his gaze to Daomingsi, sighing with an ambiguous tone, "Although in terms of level, the two are on the same level, it would be great if Sonoko's personality could be like Ah Si's."
Daoming Si didn't understand what he was sighing about for a moment.
As one of the only two bystanders who could stay out of the matter, Makino Shancai could not find a chance to go out, so she could only try her best to support Sanjo Sakurako who seemed to be about to fall, and was forced to listen to a bunch of things she didn't care about at all.
By the way, what does it mean to have the same personality as Daomingsi?
I hope a girl has the same personality as Daomingsi...
How big of a grudge does that have against her?
Sure enough, the next second, Daomingsi, still not understanding but frightened by what he said, kicked over the chair and warned him sternly, "Don't look at me like that!"
Except for Sakurako Sanjo who was trembling with fear, the other three people obviously didn't take his anger seriously.
Ximen Sojiro's expression deepened with regret. He turned his gaze towards the fallen chair and said with a half-smile, "Although Ah Si appears to have a bad temper, he's actually quite gullible on the inside. Even if he's unscrupulously doing things that hurt others, once he realizes something, he'll at least feel a little guilty."
Of course, according to Daomingsi's self-centered logic, he rarely "realizes" anything on his own initiative.
So, the bystander, Miss Makino Tsukai, was so disgusted by the shameless compliments that she couldn't stop twitching at the corners of her mouth.
Simon sighed and walked down the steps.
"But the garden is just the opposite."
Suzuki Sonoko is a person who is cute only at first sight, but after getting to know her for a long time, she becomes so cold-hearted that it is scary.
The innocent cruelty that only children possess seemed to be preserved intact as her life became more and more carefree.
——She is enthusiastic and generous when interacting with others, and her demeanor is close to the point of being sticky. Whenever she looks at you, her eyes are guaranteed to be fully imprinted with your shadow.
Comparing a human being to the world is just like this.
When it's time to leave, she's so reluctant to leave that even if you find her annoying, you'll naturally have funny and complacent thoughts like, "Do you really like me so much?"
But if you let that feeling continue and think that this silly girl can't live without you, then the result will be ugly.
Because if you see her again after a month, or even just a few days, this girl will roll her eyes in confusion and ask you without any hesitation: Who are you?
Because she is really too simple, so obvious that there is no cover-up at all. The gap between seriousness and carelessness is as thin as a layer of paper. Even if she is not serious from beginning to end, you can't see the difference.
It was just like when she looked at her fiancé - all the affection and kindness that girl gave to the man who got the title. As for whether it was Ximen Zongjiro or Feng Jingye who did the job of fiancé, it made no difference to her.
So naturally, she may look at you the same way one day and look at others the same way the next day.
"But you're wrong about one thing."
Ximen patted Meizuoling's shoulder and carefully considered his words: "Yuanzi doesn't only look for me when she has something to do. She just wants to hang out with someone whenever she has nothing else to do. Whenever she encounters something new and interesting, she'll email it to share with others."
"wrong."
Combining his previous thoughts, Simon changed his explanation: "She was bored and wanted to find her fiancé to play with her. Whenever she encountered something new and interesting, she would email her then-fiancé to share it."
"After all, Miss Xiaolan can be very busy sometimes."
Seeing that Mei Zuo Ling was about to smash the table in anger, Ximen couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Ling, do you think it's really easy to get a silly kid like that to let go of labels and learn to simply remember a person for who they are?"
He shook his phone. "It's not that she calls me only when she has something to do, but once I can see that she's troubled in her texts, I definitely won't reply much. If I don't see a reply to her email, I'll just have to talk on the phone."
"Once we talk, we have to help her solve some problems, such as her ex-fiancé who is very scheming and always trying to fool her."
Having said that, he snorted contemptuously and then sighed slowly.
"As long as she comes a few more times, she will naturally remember that she must call me when something happens."
When Mei Zuo heard this, he suddenly smacked his lips as if he had a toothache.
“Actually, it’s the same when we meet.”
Ximen Sojiro raised the corners of his mouth in a relaxed manner and continued with a smile, "She wouldn't have thought of asking me out until she broke up with her fiancé. When Sonoko is happy, she can't wait to go out and play every day. But I will only agree to a date if her 'fiancé' is not available."
"It's a pity that I still need time to make her realize what I'm avoiding and try to understand my feelings a little bit."
Although he said these seemingly regretful words, Ximen Sojiro's expression was strangely calm.
Mei Zuoling couldn't help laughing, and waved her hand to admit defeat under Ximen's gaze.
Ximen Soujirou accepted it calmly, raising an eyebrow in amusement: "Do you really think that someone with the same brain cells as Ah Si would actively spend time remembering his fiancé from over three years ago after breaking up, and would be so open-minded as to share even the little things in life with him?"
"If I don't do something, she might forget me after a good night's sleep..."
Daomingsi said "Hey" unhappily, and the moment Ximen lowered his eyes, he stopped talking guided by an inexplicable intuition.
"Now that Sonoko has developed such a habit—"
Ximen Sojiro seemed completely unaware of how terrible his words were. He smiled and said as if it was a matter of course, "That must be what I wanted to teach her to do."
The author has something to say: Ximen’s routine should be quite familiar, right?
This is probably one of the most common tricks used by the female protagonists in strategy guides to deal with natural foodies.
The version I like played by Makino Shancai is the one in the Japanese drama. I was very young when I watched it, so compared to romance novels where the second male lead would stand up to save the heroine when she was bullied (of course, Hana-chan also has this plot). But maybe it’s because the first episode I watched was the one where Shancai fought Daomingsi for Sakurako, so I subconsciously always felt that whenever I was bullied, there would definitely be a cute little sister who would come out to save me.
Now we can move on to the plot of Conan's first episode...it should be better if you have watched it before:-D
Also, this article will be published tomorrow. If you have nothing to do, you can come and play with me. After all, maybe it will be possible to update it every day until it is completed?
Please leave a message for the final practice (づ￣ 3￣)づ
