284. Birthday 3(2/2)
Watanabe Toru turned around and looked at Kiyono Rin on the stairs.
She was wearing a simple dress to meet her mother's request. It was light blue, cool and indifferent.
Every time I see her, she seems more beautiful than the last time, exuding a charming brilliance.
"Long live the right to privacy." Toru Watanabe raised the juice towards her and smiled.
Under the splendid lights of the palace, his smile is full of understanding and trust. Anyone who sees this smile will think that he is favored by the whole world.
The maids fell into obsession and intoxication, but Kiyono Rin turned a blind eye.
She came down the stairs gracefully, and said from her cherry lips: "Are you imitating Gatsby?"
"If the money is enough, I would like to star in it, but there is a small problem."
"Let your beauty sign your permission to move?"
"The person who plays Daisy must be an actress who is not interested in human beings. Otherwise, on that autumn night five years ago, Daisy would have given up everything and run away with me, without waiting for me to come back to find her after I got rich.
Of course," Toru Watanabe said with a smile, "Miki's permission to move is also necessary."
After he said this, Qingye Rin had already walked down the stairs and came to the three of them.
"Mother, Aunt Kujo." She bowed slightly.
"Happy birthday, Rin-chan." Mrs. Kujo said with a smile.
"Thank you, auntie."
"Happy birthday." Toru Watanabe said.
Qingye Rin turned around and said unexpectedly: "Ah, why are you still here?"
"If I'm not here, where can I go? This is my home too."
"Ask your beautiful girl for permission to move? Or swim at night in Tokyo Bay?"
"Swimming is just a way for me to exercise, not how much I like swimming, let alone how much I like to swim at night..."
"Thank you, happy birthday to you too."
"Listen carefully to what someone has to say!"
The two ladies looked at the two of them and unconsciously showed elegant smiles.
After a while, Miki Kujo came down wearing a blood-red dress. The color was very similar to Mrs. Kujo's, but the style was different.
Mrs. Kujo is graceful and noble, with a bit of temptation, but she is the arrogant girl queen style.
When going downstairs, Toru Watanabe reached out and took her thin hand with a ring on it.
"It's obviously my birthday, but it seems like it's yours." He said with a low smile.
"Then I will lead you?" Kujo Miki looked at him charmingly.
"Waiting for your birthday?" As he spoke, Toru Watanabe got closer and smelled her hair, "You actually washed your hair."
"how?"
"Have you ever had any trouble with Qingye Rin? Are you so rude and you wash your hair directly at her house?"
"The Kiyono family is the Kiyono family, and Kiyono Rin is Kiyono Rin."
"Actually, Qingye Rin is not a child of the Qingye family? Tell me such a secret, I won't be silenced, right?"
Kujo Miki squeezed his hand.
Because he can see through lies and doesn't like people who lie, Kiyono Rin's birthday is only for five of them - in previous years, there were only four, which was even more miserable (the information came from Mrs. Kiyono's leak without a trace).
After a simple exchange of birthday gifts, Toru Watanabe got a pair of silver cufflinks.
After Qingye Rin got the hair tie, she put her hand on her chin and pondered for a while: "Did you buy it in Ginza?"
"no."
Rin Kiyono nodded, just like on the last night of family camping, she said, "You can't bear to leave me," and Toru Watanabe replied, "Nothing." Whether it's admitting or lying, as long as you speak, you are actually telling her your sincerity.
talk.
If you don't want to say anything, just change the subject or don't answer.
There was nothing much to say about Mrs. Qingye's gift. She said she bought him a horse at the racecourse and took him to play during the vacation.
As for Mrs. Kujo, she finally gave him the fan she had agreed to give to Toru Watanabe during the Chinese New Year, with the words "Satsuto Beach" engraved on it.
From a line in "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya", it can be seen that it is indeed a fan with a sense of age.
Nowadays, the era names of the island countries have begun to quote the ancient classics of the island countries - "Man'yoshu", instead of selecting characters from ancient Chinese books.
Miki Kujo gave Rin Kiyono an old book - if Toru Watanabe read it correctly, it was something he bought a long time ago and left in her villa after reading it. Could it be that he just took it and reused it?
What Miki Kujo gave to Toru Watanabe was the apartment he currently lives in - except for Room 602, where Asuka Mai lives.
"...Why do you feel like warning me?"
"You still have questions about this?" Miki Kujo slowly opened the fan that belonged to Toru Watanabe and looked at the four Chinese characters for "Satsuto-no-Hama".
She didn't show any mysophobia towards the Kujo family's relics, or maybe it was because the fan had been in her mother's hands for many years and now belonged to Toru Watanabe.
"You don't need to take care of the apartment. There will be dedicated people taking care of it. The rent will be your pocket money." She put away the fan and gave it back to Toru Watanabe.
While the two were talking, there was an argument on the other side for some unknown reason.
Kiyono Rin and her mother had an excited but deliberately suppressed argument.
Mrs. Kiyono's attitude was firm and her face showed sadness, while Rin Kiyono's expression was cold.
PS: Thank you again for being the second leader of [Arima Ganai].
