Chapter 25: The Woman's Desire...

The drizzle wets the flowing light, and the fragrant grass grows with hatred year after year.

——"Nan Xiang Zi" by Feng Yansi

From the previous chapter, the timeline has reached 16 years.

It is now May 2016. Xiao Xing is three years old, Wu is 26, Qin is 23, and Zenin Naoya is 25. At this time, Zhang Chulan is 20 years old, Wang Ye is 26, and Zhuge Qing is 25.

It is almost June 2016 and the plot of the Longhu Mountain Luotian Dajiao in "Under One Person" is about to begin.

--------------------------

The 3-year-old child is already in kindergarten.

In order to allow Xiao Xing to have an environment where she could continue to speak Chinese, Lu Qin chose to send her to a kindergarten in Dongtai.

Dongtai District is home to many high-tech industries and has many Chinese companies. Many Chinese companies have their headquarters in Japan in Dongtai District, Tokyo.

With so many Chinese companies, there are naturally Chinese communities. To match this, there are schools that mainly teach Chinese, including kindergartens and primary schools.

Now every weekday morning, the driver and Jing take Xiaoxing to kindergarten.

After graduation, Lu Qin joined an editing company and worked as a translator between Chinese, English and Japanese.

She likes this kind of ordinary day, which makes her feel far away from the alien world, the magic circle, the Gojo family, the Lu family...all those messy things.

The elders of the Gojo family were strongly opposed to her going to work. They felt that her top priority now was to give birth to a son for their head of the family.

In fact, the elders of the Gojo family have been urging Xiaoqin since a year ago, when she was two years old.

What are you urging for?

Urge to have a baby...

She still remembered that she was invited by the elders of the Gojo family to "drink tea" half a year ago.

They didn't hide anything and asked her directly when she planned to have another child.

The attitude was also very clear - "Things like incense and offerings are very important. Madam, you can understand that, right?"

Look at what this says...

Daughters don’t count as incense, right?

Xiao Xing has just started school and she also has her own job, so it is simply unrealistic to have another child at this time.

She didn't even plan to have another child. Xiao Xing alone was enough to bother her.

In this regard, the old antiques of the Gojo family did not complain, but were extremely dissatisfied.

There were many things they didn't dare say in front of Wu, but they were conveying their dissatisfaction to her in some way.

"It's all your fault. You picked and chose for such a long time and finally picked the ancestor!"

"What do you mean it's my fault? Lord Rin has his own problems. It's all his fault. He had to go to China to bring back a statue of Buddha to worship. If you ask me, the young lady who was chosen from the branch of the Kamo family was a good choice. She's beautiful and knows everything about the family."

"The young lady from the Kamo family is also very good, with a good family background and a pretty face. She has many brothers and is suitable for having a son... Anyway... Anyway, she is much better than the current one."

"It's really strange. It's been more than three years. Miss Xing is three years old. Why is there still no movement? Didn't Tsuruori say that Master Wu likes her very much?"

"Who knows? She is very valuable. How dare we talk to her now? If you go to her, the master of the family will come to you."

"This marriage should not have happened in the first place."

"You looked like you had made a profit. Look at the attitude of that old man Lu Ci. He refused to change his nationality or surname after marrying her, and even said that he would marry a girl he gave birth to back to the Lu family... What kind of unfair clause is this?"

........

She had more or less heard these words of the elders from the servants at home.

To be honest, these words did put some pressure on her.

But what reassured her was Wu - her husband always supported her. "If you want to go to work, go. It's so boring to stay at home every day." This is what he said.

More than three years later, she discovered that what he had said to her, "In this family, you can do whatever you want," was not just talk.

And these three years or so of getting along...these nearly 1,200 days and nights have allowed them to touch each other's true hearts.

She should have discovered long ago that Wu liked her. This kind of liking or love could even be called "indulgence".

"I thought you hated me"...

"If you want to leave, do it now. This is your only chance. I will help you."

He should have had a crush on her from the beginning.....At that time....he liked her a little, but at the last moment, he chose to let her go free...

It was her own choice to stay.

She chose to stay in the Gojo family... She no longer had the courage to "escape" again...

All her greatest courage over the past twenty years was used up on that rainy night at the Shanghai airport.

What right did she have to blame Wu? After all, he didn't know anything about her and Ayan.

He just made a choice and chose her out of a little curiosity and some good feelings.

She was sad about her love affair and angry that Lu Ci used her as a bargaining chip... She projected all her dissatisfaction onto him.

This is unfair... This is a form of venting anger in itself.

She knew in her heart, she had always known.... Gojo Satoru treated her very well. He had given her the greatest freedom within his ability. She might not have lived as comfortably as she did now if she stayed in the Lu family.

Mrs. Kamo warns her not to fall in love with Satoru.

But... this seems a bit difficult...

Perhaps in the three years of getting along, she really fell in love with him... After her body got used to him, her soul gradually got used to him, so that his slightly bad character who loved to play tricks on people also had some cuteness in her eyes.

(An Geji: You are crazy! ....Alas, there are still too many people who are not clear-headed in this world. Lu Qin: Put on my filter.)

------------------

The five family courtyards have long and winding wooden corridors, which are elegant and complex. The wide gate and towering walls seem to divide the two worlds... The air in the courtyard is filled with the fragrance of the wood that is unique to the public aristocratic families, which is mixed with the fragrance of plants and trees, and is very refreshing.

On weekends when she is not working, Lu Qin leans against the pillar of the corridor and watches Xiao Xing playing with the cat under the cherry tree.

"Madam, Lord Lin is here." Jing ran over and said.

She had indeed just seen him at the corner of the corridor. She saw him lingering there, just looking at a painting at the corner. The scene in the painting was the cherry blossoms in the courtyard.

In the spring, the cherry blossoms in the garden are in full bloom, and the luxuriant flowers almost form a pink waterfall. The cherry blossom trees stand in the wind, dropping petals day and night, as if they will never stop falling.

But now it is May, and the late cherry blossoms have gradually scattered and withered, leaving only lush green.

Seeing Gojo Rin walking towards her, "Why is Uncle Rin here today? Unfortunately, Wu is not at home." Lu Qin said with a smile.

"I know..." he said. Then he seemed to realize that what he said was inappropriate, so he changed his words: "If Wu is not here, then he is not here. I can come another day."

"What was Uncle Lin looking at just now? The painting at the entrance of the corridor? Is there anything special about this painting? Both father and Uncle Lin seemed to like it very much." She was actually asking a question even though she knew the answer.

She asked Jing about the painting.

Jing said that this was painted by Wu's mother before she died, and it was one of the few relics left by Mrs. Ying.

"This was left by Wu's mother. So every time I come here, I will take a look at it." He looked nostalgic.

"The cherry blossoms in the painting are the ones in the courtyard. Jing told me that this cherry tree is hundreds of years old," said Lu Qin.

"Yes. It is indeed a hundred years old. She loved to sit here and admire the cherry blossoms."

"She... means Wu's mother... I think she must be very beautiful and special." Lu Qin said with emotion.

Come to think of it, the fact that two men can't forget her shows how charming she is.

Hearing this, Gojo Rin was slightly stunned, then smiled.

His usually serious face showed a rare gentle smile: "Yes. She is very beautiful. Just like the cherry blossoms on this branch. I used to... love her very much."

"It's a pity that the person is gone, just like the cherry blossoms, gorgeous but short-lived." Having said this, he put away his smile.

Lu Qin knew that Wu's mother, a young lady from the Baichuan family, a family of sorcerers, was named Ying, Baichuan Ying (a private character).

She was beautiful and gentle, but her magic power was not strong and her body was weak. The child she was pregnant with was a "six-eyed" one, which almost cost her life.

She did die young because of this.

"I'm surprised that you would say this to me." Lu Qin smiled. Has the unlovable man also learned to be honest?

"All secrets are exposed in front of you. Isn't it, Miss Lu?" Gojo Rin glanced at her indifferently.

"Ha, Uncle Lin, are you still blaming me for snooping into your memory..." She showed an apologetic expression, but there was a hint of provocation in her words.

"No. I chose you because of your ability," he said.

"But you're not happy with me, are you?" she asked.

"Because you are my choice...I naturally hope that your words and actions can meet the standards of the mistress of the Gojo family." He answered her question calmly.

"No... I was not chosen by you, I was chosen by Wujun." Lu Qin turned his head and refuted his words.

After a moment of silence, he responded: ".....Of course. You were chosen by the head of the family." He nodded to her.

Lu Qin always felt that he was hiding a lot of secrets.

He seemed to be living a very depressed and painful life... He made her want to explore him.

But she no longer wanted to use the "Soul-Clearing Technique" to offend this man.

------------------

On the weekend evening, Lu Qin made an appointment with Meihui to go to the movies.

Although Meihui has not graduated from graduate school yet, she is already doing an internship. The company where she is interning has a drinking party in the afternoon.

Lu Qin went directly to the bar where Meihui was.

She waited for a while, but Meihui didn't come out or reply to her message. She was a little worried about Meihui, so she went straight into the bar.

Sure enough, at a glance, she saw Meihui who was drunk.

Oh, really, I won’t even watch this movie now.

When they were done, she would just help her home.

At this moment, the sexy girl in a suspender skirt and heavy makeup in front of the counter attracted her attention—because this girl looked so familiar.

Iori...is that her?

The girl took a sip of wine, lit a cigarette and made a phone call: "Yixi... okay, okay... I will definitely come to support you in the evening! I will definitely come!" Then she hung up the phone and hurried out.

Lu Qin heard her mention "Yixi" on the phone... "Dongcheng Yixi"?

Didn't Mihui say that after that "visit to the male escort parlor incident", Iori broke up with the male escort named "Tojo Kazuki"? Didn't Mihui give Iori the recording pen? She did, right?

How to return it then?

Could it be that three years have passed and they are still together?

With such doubts, she shouted forward, "Iori!"

The girl turned and looked back.

Lu Qin confirmed that she was Iori...

No, she had to ask.

Just as she was squeezing through the crowd to catch up, she accidentally bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry... I'm not..." Before she could finish her words, her right hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.

"You're not coming home so late. You seem to be having a lot of fun. Don't you think about your poor husband who is alone in the empty house?" She looked up.

It’s Wu-kun!

But what's with his resentful tone? His expression is also aggrieved, as if to say, "You bastard, why are you still fooling around outside? Why don't you come back? I'm angry, come and pet me."

"Oh, Wu. You came at the right time. Meihui is drunk and I can't carry her. Please help me carry her to the car later." She said.

After he finished speaking, Iori disappeared completely in the blink of an eye...

Hey, forget it.

In order to wait for Mihui, she and Wu also sat at the bar.

After a while, the bartender came and looked at Lu Qin first.

"A glass of Royal Salute, thank you," said Lu Qin.

Then the bartender looked at Gojo Satoru again.

"Give him a glass of Fanta," Lu Qin continued.

Bartender: ??? (full of question marks on his face)

----------------

PS:

(1) The Gojo family is a bunch of old bastards. They are so happy to marry the heroine. The inheritance of their own family's skills is not stable at all. But the children born by the heroine are likely to inherit the soul-clearing technique. It all depends on the strength of their talents. In terms of family background, the two families are very well matched. If Gojo Satoru marries a girl from his own family, he will be marrying a girl of inferior status. Because the Zenin family and the Gojo family have a feud, it is impossible for them to marry. The main family of the Kamo family does not have girls of the right age, so they can only choose girls from the branch family.

The Lu family is one of the top families in China. What do they have to lose?

(2) Iori's story is fictional, but it has a real prototype: a female college student from a prestigious university became a hostess to support her gigolo "boyfriend". It's really outrageous. Girls must love themselves more.
