After my divorce, I became a Tokyo literary giant

Chapter 83: Little Sister's Little Actions Under Ryoko's Nose

Because of her sister's words, Saionji Maki felt guilty and ashamed.

The originally noble and cold face gradually turned red and hot, looking more and more charming.

Ryoko was originally discussing with her elder sister whether they should go to a hot spring to relieve fatigue, but after scanning her elder sister's face a few times, she suddenly noticed something strange.

"what?"

Ryoko made a strange sound, as if she noticed something strange on her elder sister's face.

Maki Saionji's heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself that something was wrong.

I look a little weird right now, and Ryoko is so smart, maybe she'll notice something unusual.

She wanted to suppress it, but it was the first time in years that she felt happy. Perhaps it was like a long-awaited rain after a long drought. No matter how dignified and cool she was, she could not hide the happy and fulfilled blush on her face.

In the eyes of an experienced woman like Ryoko, it should be easy to see some clues from her face, which made her feel guilty and nervous at the moment.

But in fact, she was overthinking it.

It's not that easy to tell. It's just the imagination of an old woman who has been single all her life.

Ryoko looked at her elder sister, looking left and right. After looking at her all the time, she felt that her elder sister was particularly beautiful today, and her complexion was also particularly good. She said in amazement, "Elder sister, you look so beautiful today. Is there something happy? Or are you using new makeup?"

When she said this, her younger sister happened to come to the kitchen.

Hearing what her second sister said, the younger sister also looked at her eldest sister, and indeed noticed that her eldest sister was a little different from usual.

Although she still had a cold face and looked like a strict parent, her rosy and translucent skin was particularly attractive.

The younger sister is still young and doesn't pay much attention to women's skin care. But every woman loves beauty, so she also asked: "Big sister is indeed more beautiful and hydrated than usual. Are you using any new skin care products?"

When my younger sister said this, Saionji Maki felt even more guilty.

She absolutely couldn't let Zhenzhi know how dissolute she was last night, otherwise she would really commit suicide out of shame.

"Sister, if there are any good skin care products, you can't use them secretly!" Ryoko said with a smile.

Maki Saionji secretly looked at her sister's face, but didn't see anything unusual. She was a little confused for a moment. Could it be that Ryoko really couldn't see anything?

And Ryoko's face...

Recalling the scene of last night, Saionji Maki's heart was pounding. She thought to herself that Ryoko had played with Tadaki in the same way before. No, she would only play more extravagantly than her older sister...

I don't know how cool Ryoko is...

Her mind was full of random thoughts, and Saionji Maki carefully considered her answer: "I haven't used any new skincare products..."

"How could she be so much prettier than before..." Ryoko muttered.

Zhenzhi also nodded: "It is much more beautiful. Did Big Sister really not do anything?"

Saionji Maki knew she wasn't good at lying, and if she continued, she'd be exposed. She quickly explained, "The key to a woman's beauty isn't skincare products. You're focusing on the wrong thing."

"Huh?" Ryoko expressed surprise. "Then tell me, how do you maintain your complexion?"

Saionji Maki turned her head and glanced at her sister.

To be honest, my sister's complexion is indeed not as good as before. I think it's because she hasn't been moisturized since she and Tadaki had a cold war and slept in separate rooms... This guess is correct. After all, my sister has been divorced for almost four months, so it's natural that her complexion is a little bad.

"If a woman wants a good complexion and figure, the key is exercise," said Saionji Maki with the lecturing expression of a household head. "Exercise is the best skincare product for women, don't you know? Have you never exercised?"

"..."

Ryoko opened her mouth and muttered softly, "I exercise occasionally, but I never feel anything..."

"That means you're being lazy. Just moving around a bit doesn't count as exercise," Saionji Maki said sternly. "In this regard, you're even worse than Machi!"

Hearing what her eldest sister said, Zhenzhi nodded and said, "Exercise is indeed effective. Second sister, you should also exercise. Otherwise, I'm afraid if you continue like this, you will become one of those pitiful women who completely give up on image management after a breakup and become dirty and ugly."

Hearing this, Ryoko's heart skipped a beat.

On the one hand, I think what my sister said makes sense, but on the other hand, asking a young literary woman to practice is too difficult for her...

"Okay, stop and have breakfast!" Tazaki Saku interrupted the conversation of the three sisters and walked to the restaurant with breakfast.

The three women followed obediently.

This scene is really pleasing to the eyes.

The eldest sister is in her thirties, the second sister is in her twenties, and the youngest sister is in her teens.

Different age groups have different aesthetics.

The eldest sister was wearing a purple tight skirt, her figure was sexy and charming, and she exuded a mature vibe all over her body.

The second sister wore a blue long skirt, had a well-proportioned and tall figure, and her hair was tied into a ponytail hanging down in front of her chest - a dangerous lady's hairstyle.

The little girl is wearing a white sweater with a skirt. She has developed well and her small hips look perky and charming.

The three of them went into the living room, closed the door, turned on the heater, and then lit the firewood in the fireplace.

The temperature outside is a bit low, but it's warm as spring in the house.

The four of them had breakfast in this cozy atmosphere, and then sat around the kotatsu, busy with their own things.

Kotatsu is indispensable in Japan in winter. An electric blanket is fixed under a low table and covered with quilts on all sides to prevent heat loss. The whole family gathers together to enjoy the warmth, which is the collective winter memory of every Japanese family.

There were also some oranges and plum wine on the kotatsu.

The TV in the living room was on, playing a variety show, but no one was watching it; it was just used as background music.

Tazaki Saku and Saionji Maki are facing each other, with Ryoko on their left and Machi on their right.

The kotatsu is quite big, but if someone stretches their legs, they will rub against the person opposite them.

After sitting down, Saionji Maki seemed a little restrained and didn't dare to move around. She curled up her legs as much as possible, stared at the laptop screen, and was always on guard against the feet that might reach out from under the table.

Ryoko was also busy working.

After dinner, she washed her face and showered. Her skin was still slightly warm, and her complexion had recovered somewhat. She wore loose clothes at home, and the neckline of her blue dress revealed a little of her white chest, giving a glimpse of her bare chest.

When she is concentrating on her work, she will occasionally tilt her head.

This way the neckline will slide lower and the look will be sexier. Tazaki Saku used to like it very much, but now the feeling has faded a lot and he doesn't feel any excitement when he looks at it. He just regards it as appreciating a beautiful work of art.

Elsewhere, Machi was eating an orange and reading the October issue of Aoba. She was half-lying on the tatami, her long, slender legs in white silk stockings gently folded together.

The lines of the tight legs are extremely beautiful.

The toes, wrapped in thin white silk, stretched and curled up.

Between the toes and the soles of the feet, there is a small space that opens and closes.

During this period, Zhenzhi has been practicing this action.

Zhenzhi practiced repeatedly, looking at her second sister opposite her, with a slight sense of pride in her heart: Today, I will gladly accept the man you don't want.

Thinking of this, Saionji Machi suddenly yawned.

As if very tired, his half-lying body lay lazily on the ground.

Meanwhile, a small white snake crawled along the floor.

Tazaki Saku, who was sitting in front of the computer and about to finish coding the last chapter of "Norwegian Wood", suddenly stiffened.

He subconsciously turned his head to look over.

Zhenzhi looked very sleepy, with her eyes half-closed, lying motionless, as if the matter had nothing to do with her.

No, you're too bold...

You can't be so casual!

Tazaki Saku was about to stand up and leave when Saionji Maki looked over. Seeing Machi's lazy look, she scolded him, "You're an adult, why are you still so lazy? You don't know any girl's manners!"

Seeing her scolding her sister, Tazaki Saku didn't move for the time being.

Zhenzhi was able to deal with his elder sister while moving his feet. After a lazy yawn, he said, "Sister, our parents have been dead for so long, and there is no one to take care of us. Why should we follow so many rules..."

Upon hearing this, Saionji Maki's eyes widened and she angrily said, "How dare you talk like that! The rules in this world aren't just the rules of parents, there are many other rules to follow!"

"Sister, you are too obedient to the rules, that's why your life has been so tiring these years." Zhenzhi said indifferently.

These words seemed to have brought up something in Saionji Maki's mind. She opened her mouth, her plump, cherry-red lips wanting to speak, but in the end she swallowed the words back.

Zhenzhi turned his head to look at his elder sister who was as cold as ice, and felt a little strange.

According to convention, shouldn't she continue to lecture herself with a stern face? Why did she stop after just a few words today?
It's very strange, but never mind. I don't have time to care about my elder sister now.

Machi turned his attention back to Tazaki Saku.

At this time, Saionji Maki's mind was full of self-blame and guilt, "Actually, I don't follow the rules anymore. I have become a vulgar woman and am not qualified to educate Machi." At the same time, she also deeply warned herself that she must not let Machi see her being so unruly in front of Tasaki.

She was blaming herself, while Tazaki Saku opposite her turned red and his breathing quickened.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Ryoko accidentally discovered his abnormality.

"...It's hot!" Tazaki Saku said, enduring the tingling feeling on his scalp.

Ryoko felt it and found that there was a fireplace in the room and an electric blanket, but the windows were not open, so it was indeed a bit hot.

"I'll open a window for some fresh air."

She got up and opened the window, and when she came back, she saw her ex-husband half buried in the fireplace.

That slightly red face looks so kind...

The man who once belonged to her only, now has nothing to do with her...

Suddenly, she felt a little confused. After sitting back on the kotatsu, Ryoko saw a bottle of fruit wine on the table. She immediately picked up the cup on the table, poured it out and drank a glass.

"Huh?" Saionji Maki looked at her, "You're drinking now, not working?"

My husband is gone, why should I work... For a moment, Ryoko wanted to shout this in her heart, but she stopped herself at the tip of her tongue and said instead: "I'm a little tired, I'll have a drink and then take a nap."

"I'll have a drink with my second sister!"

Zhenzhi also got up, took out a cup and poured himself a drink, then raised his hand to tuck the golden hair scattered on his cheeks behind his ears, took a small sip, and then immediately frowned and stuck out his tongue.

"Ahhhh, so spicy, so hard to drink..."

This scene made Ryoko laugh uncontrollably.

A slight blush soon appeared on the little sister's delicate and lovely face, making her look particularly charming and lovely.

"Am I blushing?" the younger sister asked with a confused expression.

"It's a little red." Ryoko said with a smile, her mood also improved because of her little sister's appearance.

"Oh, it seems I can't drink." A shy and cute smile appeared on Saionji Machi's face.

In the eyes of her elder sister, Ryoko, the younger sister's smile is pure and cute...

Only Tazaki Saku knows that my little sister is a bit of a green tea girl.

Ex-wife, don't believe her!

She is acting. She has seen through the fact that you and I are getting a divorce. Her goal now is to swallow up your ex-husband!

Maki Saionji, who was standing opposite, felt a little strange when looking at Tazaki Saku.

Why is he frowning and looking like he is enduring some torture?

"Sister, would you like to drink something?" At this time, Ryoko looked at Maki.

Saionji Maki shifted her focus and shook her head: "I have work to do."

"Then I'll drink it myself." Ryoko drank the fruit wine sip by sip, and her face soon turned red, looking quite pretty. But one always gets drunk faster when drinking when one is in a bad mood, and she even drank three glasses of low-proof fruit wine before she fell asleep on the ground.

Now, my sister felt even happier.

Now the only person who was in the way was her eldest sister. If she could get rid of her, then it would be just her and her brother-in-law's world...

Underestimated the power of the flu.

I feel terrible all over right now, it's even scarier than testing positive for COVID-4000. I can't make up the yuan I owe for now...
