Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 121 Madam Fei, Apologizing requires showing your belly!

soon
Furious, Eri Kisaki arrived at the nearby parking lot, found her blue Mini Cooper, opened the door, and got in.

There was a bang.

She slammed the car door shut with a loud bang.

The loud noise temporarily cleared Eri's mind, and she was no longer as angry as before.

She took a deep breath, pulled the seatbelt out from her right shoulder to her left waist, and then fastened it, the black seatbelt sinking into the abyss.

After calming down, Eri Kisaki slowly started the car, drove out of the parking lot, and headed towards her home.

Before the car had gone very far, she remembered something very important.

That is, the buttons on her suit jacket haven't been retrieved yet; they're still in Kitahara Natsuhiro's hands.

"Hmph! It's all Kogoro's fault, he made me forget such an important thing." Eri Kisaki snorted coldly.

After all, she and Kogoro Mouri were childhood friends, and they also had a daughter named Ran.

Although they have been separated for ten years, there is still a trace of affection between them, and it is precisely because of this trace of affection and attachment that they have not divorced.

But this last bit of affection was worn away by Kogoro Mouri's repeated sarcasm and his smooth-talking with other women.

And this time, she also heard another woman's voice on Kogoro Mouri's phone call, especially the word "Kogoro," which was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

This almost completely extinguished Eri Kisaki's last remaining feelings for Kogoro Mouri.

Moreover, she heard Ran's conversation with Kogoro Mouri very clearly, including Ran's line, "You've been drinking outside again."

This statement already indicates that Kogoro Mouri is a habitual offender who frequently goes to entertainment venues to drink and then finds a woman to accompany him.

He might already be sleeping with some woman.

With this in mind, Eri Kisaki considered bringing up the idea of ​​divorce a second time.

She first considered divorce when she had just separated from Kogoro Mouri. At that time, she was very angry that Kogoro Mouri was ungrateful and said such hurtful things. She even considered filing for divorce then.

But afterwards, she calmed down and realized that she and Kogoro Mouri hadn't reached that point yet. In addition, considering Ran, she didn't mention divorce and waited for Kogoro Mouri to come and apologize to her.

Her thinking was simple: as long as Kogoro Mouri apologized and gave her a way out, she would go back and resume her normal life.

But like Eri Kisaki, Kogoro Mouri is also very proud and embarrassed, and he has never apologized.

She had been waiting for this apology for ten long years.

She no longer wanted to wait; she was truly exhausted.

So she had the idea of ​​divorce again, and this time she was much more determined than before, and it wasn't something she said in a fit of extreme anger.

However, there is still one obstacle in her path to getting a divorce.

The obstacle is Xiaolan.

She has seen all of Ran's efforts over the years, and she truly hopes that she and Kogoro Mouri can reconcile and return to how they were before.

But things didn't go as planned; some things couldn't be accomplished simply by Xiao Lan's efforts.

Because neither she nor Kogoro Mouri are puppets, they will not follow the path planned by Ran.

That's why this happened at the restaurant entrance today.

"Sigh, Ran, I have no choice," Eri sighed, reaching into her bag to pull out her phone and business card.

This business card belongs to Kitahara Natsuhiro, and it has his phone number on it.

She planned to make a phone call and then take the button from Kitahara Natsuhiro's hand.

Although the buttons weren't worth much, they were still buttons on her suit jacket, and she had worn them all day; they smelled of her, they were her personal items.

Therefore, she has to get it back.

Just as Eri Kisaki was about to dial Kitahara Natsuhiro's number, a phone call came in.

The call that came in was from Xiaolan.

Looking at the caller ID on her phone screen, she felt a headache coming on.

If possible, she didn't want to answer Xiaolan's call for the time being, because she knew very well why Xiaolan was calling.

It would be nothing more than explaining things to Kogoro Mouri and telling him not to be angry.

She had heard these words many times over the past ten years, and she was already quite annoyed by them.

But Xiaolan was, after all, her daughter, so she had to answer the call.

Eri sighed, forced herself to stay awake, and answered the phone: "Hello, Ran."

"mom."

Ran breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Eri's voice.

She was genuinely afraid that Eri wouldn't answer the phone; if that were the case, the situation couldn't be worse.

They might actually get divorced.

But now that the call has been connected, there is still room for maneuver in today's situation.

And she is already on her way to the entertainment venue where Kogoro Mouri is.

She knew the places Kogoro Mouri frequented like the back of her hand, and on several occasions, she had carried him back from those places when he was completely drunk, and there were even instances where he didn't come home at night.

However, she didn't tell Eri any of these things.

Although it was somewhat selfish of her to do this, she really didn't want to see the two of them divorce. She just wanted a complete family, and what was wrong with that?

Eri Kisaki placed the phone on the passenger seat, turned on the speakerphone, and pushed up her glasses: "If you're asking me to forgive that person, then don't say anything."

"Because I'll get even angrier."

She had heard Xiaolan say these things too many times, so this time she decided to shut Xiaolan up in advance.

"No, I'm not asking you to forgive Dad, Mom. It's just that Dad might not have done what you think he did," Xiaolan said, blushing as she finished the last sentence.

Although she was only a high school student, she still knew some basic common sense about relationships between men and women because some of it was in textbooks and they had all learned about it.

However, it was still a little embarrassing for her to talk about such things.

Upon hearing this, Eri Kisaki snorted coldly.

As an adult, she naturally knew what Xiaolan was talking about.

She didn't think that Kogoro Mouri, a grown man, was just drinking in a place like that, after all, they had been separated for so many years.

He couldn't possibly be satisfying his physiological needs all the time by himself.

Moreover, as a lawyer, she was very clear about what those places were for.

Do you really think this lecherous old man will stop there?

Xiao Lan believed it, but she didn't.

"Mom, please trust Dad for once," Xiaolan said anxiously. "I'm on my way to Dad right now. Wait a minute, don't hang up."

Fei Ying responded and continued driving.

To save time, Ran took Conan in a taxi, and they quickly arrived at an entertainment venue.

When Ran brought Conan over, a young lady wearing a black vest and black trousers with her hair in a ponytail immediately came to greet them.

"Xiao Lan, what brings you here?"

The receptionist was a long-time employee here and naturally recognized Xiaolan, who often came to pick up her dog's father.

They even felt sorry for Xiaolan, having such a father.

"Mayumi-nee, is my dad here?" Ran asked hurriedly. Seeing Ran's anxious look, Mayumi didn't hesitate and told Ran directly, "Mr. Mori is in room 305."

Under normal circumstances, she would not disclose a guest's privacy.

But Ran is Kogoro Mouri's daughter, and she has come to pick him up from school many times. In addition, Ran looks anxious, so something big must have happened for her to come looking for him.

"Thank you, Mayumi-nee."

After thanking her, Ran immediately led Conan inside.

As Mayumi watched Ran and Conan's retreating figures, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Who is that little boy?"

"Could he be Mr. Mori's illegitimate child?"

"Whose could it be?"

"Saya? Komei or Meako?"

While Mayumi was wildly speculating about Conan's true identity, Ran had already led Conan to the door of room 305.

The two people standing outside could hear the music coming from inside, but there was no singing; instead, they heard plenty of sounds of people having fun.

"Ran-neechan, what do we do now?" Conan asked, looking up.

If it were a normal arrest operation, he would rush in without hesitation and bring the bad guys to justice.

But the call hasn't ended yet.

Moreover, the person inside is Kogoro Mouri, not a criminal, and one wrong move could lead to Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki getting a divorce.

Then Xiaolan will become an 'orphan' just like him.

Although he also felt that Eri Kisaki should have divorced Kogoro Mouri a long time ago, he still didn't want to see Ran sad.

Hearing this, Ran took a deep breath and handed the phone to Conan: "Take this phone, I'll go in and check the situation."

"okay."

Conan took the phone.

At that moment, Xiaolan suddenly pushed open the door to the private room.

Once the door was opened, a tremendous noise erupted from inside, including the sounds of Kogoro Mouri indulging in pleasure.

"Kogoro, you're amazing! *kiss*"

"Is this comfortable? Can you stay with me tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Conan's expression changed, and he immediately looked at his phone, which was still connected.

destroyed!

In the dim light, Xiaolan saw a heavily made-up woman dressed very provocatively sitting on her father's lap, twisting and turning and kissing him intimately. She immediately became furious and roared like a lion, venting her anger.

"dad!!!"

Bang!
In a fit of rage, Xiaolan punched and shattered the glass table in front of her.

The glass was smashed to pieces, shattering all over the floor.

Drops of blood dripped from Xiaolan's finger bones onto the ground.

The loud noise also woke up the two men and three women in the private room.

"Xiao Lan, what brings you here?"

Kogoro Mouri, who was already somewhat drunk, immediately sobered up. When he saw Ran's bleeding fist, he couldn't help but shudder, and an ominous premonition began to spread in his heart.

At that moment, the phone call ended.

Eri Kisaki was not angry after hanging up the phone; on the contrary, she was very calm and showed no sign of heartache.

Perhaps she had already exhausted all her heartache for Kogoro Mouri during their ten years of separation, and her heart had died along with it.

"It's over. My eighteen-year marriage is over!"

Eri Kisaki took off her wedding ring and threw it out of the car window without any hesitation.

Jingle Bell.
The wedding ring rolled down the drain and disappeared.

Then, she took a deep breath, forced a smile, and dialed another number.

"Mr. Kitahara, I am Eri Kisaki. I left something in your store. When would you have time to come and get it?"

She doesn't have time today because she's almost home.

"That's right, it's a button. I'm really sorry, I almost hit you."

"If you don't mind, I'd like to treat you to dinner as an apology."

"Okay, then it's settled."

Eri Kisaki breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

I can finally get my personal belongings back.

Kitahara Natsuyu looked at the disconnected phone and muttered to himself.

An apology? An apology requires showing your belly, you know.

Inside the private room.

"Dad, come back with me, and then apologize to Mom." Xiaolan didn't care at all about the wound and blood on her finger bone.

Now her heartache is greater than her physical pain.

"Apologize to Eri? What are you talking about? Why should I apologize to her?"

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri was unaware that what he was doing here had been overheard by Eri Kisaki on the other end of the phone.

Even if he finds out, he won't apologize to Eri Kisaki.

Because he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Hearing Kogoro Mouri's question, Ran no longer had the heart to explain.

She walked straight in front of Kogoro Mouri, glaring at the woman, but remained calm: "Get out of my way."

Seeing Ran's fury, the woman sitting on Kogoro Mouri's lap wisely walked away and hid to the side.

Then she saw her father's ugly appearance.

"Xiaolan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Kogoro Mouri was speaking when his head lolled to the side and he fainted.

After knocking Kogoro Mouri unconscious with a karate chop, Ran carried him on her back and left with Conan.

She didn't drag her father out by the head; that was probably the last shred of dignity Kogoro Mouri had left!

"Sister Xiaolan, your hand."

Conan looked at Ran's hand and felt a pang of heartache; he wished he were the one in that state.

"I'm fine, you can go back now."

"it is good."

After Xiaolan left, everyone in the private room looked at each other, then at the shattered table, their faces blank.

"What should we do now?"

"how could I know!"
