winter!

Hearing the knock on the door, Yukina Naoko glanced at Sakurai Ruiko and found that she was immersed in the game, so she held her lower abdomen with one hand and walked slowly to the door.

Through the peephole, she saw that the people coming were Jinguji Kiyohime and Igarashi Mika, and she immediately opened the door.

"Miss Jinguji, Miss Igarashi, please come in quickly."

"Excuse me." x2

The three of them walked into the living room, and Sakurai Ruiko finally noticed that a guest had arrived.

After seeing Igarashi Mika, she stood up in a hurry and hid the game controller behind her back.

"President, please listen to my explanation, it's not what you think! I, I don't like playing games! This, this is all..."

【game over!】

The sound of game failure came from the TV.

Sakurai Ruiko's expression froze.

Damn it, I forgot to save it!

Igarashi Mika pouted at the TV screen.

"I can beat this game in one life."

Sakurai Ruiko's eyes lit up.

"Really?!"

The next moment, she saw Igarashi Mika's teasing gaze.

Didn’t you say that you don’t like playing games?

Sakurai Ruiko laughed sarcastically.

"Hey, hey hey..."

"Leizi, go make some tea."

At this time, Sakurai Ruiko felt like she was being pardoned by her mother's instructions.

"Uh-huh!"

Yukina Naoko asked the two of them to sit down, turned off her daughter's game, and sat across from them.

"Mrs. Naoko, how are you feeling lately?" Jinguji Kiyohime asked with concern.

Yukina Naoko gently touched her belly and said, "The doctor said that all the indicators of the baby are very healthy."

"Well, in addition to the usual nutritious and balanced diet, you should also do appropriate exercise. If you lie in bed all the time, your baby will also become lazy."

"Well, lately I've asked Leizi to walk with me."

"That's good... By the way, there are some stray cats in the park nearby... Although I also like cats, if you see them, it's best to stay away... Once you are infected with toxoplasmosis,

It is a great threat to the baby’s health.”

Hearing Jinguji Kiyohime say this, Yukina Naoko's expression became serious.

"I understand, I will stay away."

At the same time, she thought to herself that Miss Jinguji was still as caring as ever. It seemed that her worries were unfounded.

How could she forget Izumi-san...

"Qingji, I am the adoptive mother of the child...why do you care more about the baby than me?"

Igarashi Mika asked questions seemingly casually, and secretly observed the reactions of the two people.

"Well, that...because Yuhua's adopted son is my adopted son..."

"Tea, please."

Sakurai Ruiko served the brewed tea.

Jinguji Kiyohime took the girl's tea and nodded slightly at her.

"Thanks."

At this moment, Naoko Yukina had a storm raging in her heart.

Why?

Why would Ms. Igarashi ask such a question?

Why does Miss Jinguji have such a normal attitude towards Ruiko?

"Mrs. Naoko, you seem a little surprised by something?" Igarashi Mika suddenly asked.

Hearing Igarashi Mika's question, Yukina Naoko managed to regain her composure and asked: "What are you referring to?"

"Just now, when you heard what I said to Qingji, your expression was very surprised, as if I said something you didn't expect. I want to know the reason."

Seeing the seriousness with which Mika Igarashi asked, and the doubt on Kiyohime Jinguji's face, Naoko Yukina understood.

It's not that I'm unfounded, nor is Leizi joking.

What I worried about really happened.

But, this is ridiculous.

Even I remember it, but there is no reason why Jinguji-san, who is closer to Izumi-san, can’t remember it...

So, she cautiously asked again: "Do you really not remember? He——Izumi——Che——"

"Mom, what's wrong with you today? As I said, I don't know this guy... Could it be the person you saw in your dream?" Sakurai Ruiko complained helplessly,

Seeing the undisguised helplessness and confusion on Sakurai Ruiko's face, Yukina Naoko felt a little stinging in her heart.

It was obvious that you were in so much pain and still couldn't bear to leave him.

Now, how could I forget so completely...

"Royal flower, royal flower~"

Jinguji Kiyohime gently tugged on Igarashi Mika's sleeve and shouted softly.

Igarashi Mika turned her head and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

"Why can't I understand what Mrs. Naoko said?"

Igarashi Mika's fingers trembled.

The next moment, she smiled and said: "I don't quite understand it either. Maybe it's the local dialect..."

"oh……"

"By the way, Qingji, come back and live with me today. It's too lonely there alone, and my mother is a little worried about you."

"Huh? But after living here for so long, it's not deserted..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Jinguji Kiyohime suddenly felt that her residence in Shibuya was indeed deserted.

The trees and flowers have withered, and there are so many rooms, and I live alone...

So, she changed her tune.

"Then I want to live with Aunt Jingli."

"Huh? Aren't you following me?" Igarashi Mika was a little disappointed.

"No. That will make Aunt Jingli sad."

“Is it okay if I’m sad?”

"Mika won't be sad. Mika, you understand me best." Jinguji Kiyohime said coquettishly while holding Igarashi Mika's arm.

】

Igarashi Mika sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay."

"hey-hey……"

Yukina Naoko watched Igarashi Mika and Jinguji Seihime whispering to each other, and did not continue to ask the two of them whether they remembered Izumi Toru's question.

Because they didn't pay attention to the conversation between themselves and their daughters, indicating that they had forgotten it.

In the end, what happened?

The woman subconsciously put her hand on her lower abdomen, feeling worried...

…

"Aunt Jingli!"

Jinguji Kiyohime rushed towards Igarashi Shizuri.

"Humph! You are still willing to come back to see me!"
