Tokyo Tutor: Starting with My Ex-Girlfriend's Sister

"Huizi, my two kids have caused you trouble."

In the car, Himeno Kiyoyuki apologized to Inoue Keiko.

"It's okay, I don't want to confirm my relationship with Yamazaki-sensei so soon."

"If it weren't for those two brats, you would be with Mr. Yamazaki today."

Hime no Kiyoseki was a little breathless, wondering how she had raised those two little rascals.

He doesn't do anything productive and even ruins people's marriages.

"Natsuki and Saki are right. After all these years, Yamazaki-sensei and I haven't progressed to the level of lovers. It's probably because Yamazaki-sensei doesn't like me that much."

Keiko Inoue recalled that when she was issuing the challenge, Natsuki Himeno and Kazuka Yamazaki were exchanging glances, a tacit understanding that she had never had with Kazuka Yamazaki.

Seeing her younger sister looking so worried, Hime no Kiyomi felt a pang of sympathy.

"Don't be sad. On a better day, I'll personally act as your matchmaker. Then, I'll tell those two to get lost and not get in the way."

"Forget it. Mr. Yamazaki has an ex-girlfriend, and she's always been in his heart. I can't win."

"What is it about that girl that makes Mr. Yamazaki so obsessed?"

Keiko Inoue looked on with curiosity.

"I don't know either. This is probably first love. The girl went abroad to study and recently came back. Professor Yamazaki is a bit unsettled by her."

Do they want to get back together?

"The girl thought, 'Mr. Yamazaki hesitated. Because he felt he was letting me down.'"

"What kind of person is that girl?"

"I don't know much about her, I only know that she has a mental illness."

"Oh dear, this is terrible. Keiko, you can't let go. Mr. Yamazaki can't marry that girl with a mental illness."

Why?

"My daughter Natsuki also has a mental illness. Although it's only a mild case, it's still caused me a lot of suffering."

"You saw her yelling and screaming. Yesterday she even got my niece drunk, which infuriated me. My niece is still in the hospital."

"What should we do? Who would want to marry her if she acts like this?"

Seeing Himeno Kiyoyuki's worried expression, Inoue Keiko found it somewhat amusing, because the man willing to marry her eldest daughter was currently in her house.

"Keiko, you absolutely must win over Mr. Yamazaki. You can't let that ex-girlfriend ruin him."

"Really?"

"Believe me, mental illness is a big problem. Professor Yamazaki is such a talented woman, we can't let her be held back by that kind of woman."

"But I lack confidence."

"What are you afraid of? I'm here to help you."

Himeno Seiyuki's words greatly boosted Inoue Keiko's confidence.

"Thank you, sister."

"Haha, you are all excellent children. It is my good deed to make you happy."

During their conversation, Keiko Inoue's phone rang.

"Was that a call from Mr. Yamazaki's mother?"

Keiko Inoue quickly answered the phone, and the two chatted for a while.

"What happened?"

"Mr. Yamazaki's mother said that it's Mr. Yamazaki's birthday this week, and they sent me some Hokkaido specialties so that I could celebrate Mr. Yamazaki's birthday."

"Great news! Keiko, take this opportunity to win over Yamazaki Kazukaze."

Himeno Kiyoyuki grasped Inoue Keiko's hand, encouraging her not to miss the opportunity.

"Sister Qingxue, you're right. I will definitely make the most of this opportunity."

Keiko Inoue laughed as she spoke.

【Himeno Natsuki, your mother is on my side, what makes you think you can fight me?!】

Today is Hino Natsuki's first lunch after returning home, but Hino Seiyuki is absent because of the tea ceremony club's activities.

However, the Himeno sisters were already used to this; without her, they could enjoy their lunch in peace.

"Mr. Yamazaki, I don't think I've told you yet that I'm going to test you."

Himeno Natsuki wiped her mouth with a white silk handkerchief and spoke slowly.

"test?"

Yamazaki Kazukazu looked at Himeno Natsuki with some confusion. Meanwhile, Himeno Saki slammed her chopsticks on the table.

"Sister, can you please stop meddling in other people's business?"

Faced with her sister's angry rebuke, Himeno Natsuki was prepared and showed no outward reaction.

"No, my sister hasn't accepted Mr. Yamazaki yet, so she can't accept living under the same roof as him."

"Then move out!"

"Okay, if you don't pass my test, and you need my guidance, then I'll move out."

"It's a deal. Mr. Yamazaki, you absolutely mustn't pass my sister's test."

Himeno Saki crossed her arms and looked displeased.

"So, Miss Natsuki, what kind of test are you referring to?"

Yamazaki Kazukaze was a little curious; what kind of mischief was this woman up to now?

"To prevent Saki from affecting my test, let's talk about this privately."

"Huh? Sister, you're testing my teacher, but you're keeping it from me."

"Quiet down, you're so restless and annoying. Mr. Yamazaki, if you're willing to accept my test, come to the back garden at noon today. My new studio is there."

"If you're not coming, Ms. Yamazaki, you can pack my bags for me, Aunt Chiba. I'll go stay with Chiba Karen."

"Miss Natsuki, please don't be so willful. Madam won't allow it. And poor Miss is still in the hospital today because of your drinking."

"What's the problem? We drank the same wine. It's just that she's physically weak."

After saying this extremely offensive remark, Himeno Natsuki got up and left the table.

"Mr. Yamazaki, please don't go. Let my sister move out."

Himeno Saki said.

"No, I still have to go, otherwise the Himeno family will be in chaos again."

Yamazaki Kazukazu understood that Himeno Natsuki wanted to talk to him alone.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yamazaki."

While in Kyoto, Chiba Masazuki had heard that Himeno Saki was a boisterous demon, while Himeno Natsuki was a quiet devil.

After working at the Himeno family for a few days, Chiba Masatsuki discovered that this was true.

During his lunch break, Yamazaki Kaze walked into the back garden of the Himeno family villa.

Walking deep into the flower bushes, Yamazaki Kaze found Himeno Natsuki's new art studio amidst a swarm of bees and blooming flowers.

This is an exquisite blue log cabin, decorated in a style reminiscent of European and American country cottages.

Standing in front of the wooden house, Yamazaki Kazukaze knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Himeno Natsuki opened the door and invited Yamazaki Kaze into her studio.

The walls here display many of Hino Natsuki's works, many of which were created when Hino Natsuki was in elementary school. Yamazaki Kazuka has never seen them before.

Bang! The sound of Himeno Natsuki closing the door came from behind. The tightly closed curtains and dim light gave Yamazaki Kazuka the feeling of having stumbled into a horror movie.

"Natsuki-san, what do you want to test?"

Yamazaki Kazuka turned around to face Himeno Natsuki, who was walking towards him step by step.

"He Feng, you've hurt me so much. How many girlfriends have you had in these past three years?"

Faced with Himeno Natsuki's questioning, Yamazaki Kazuka remained silent, his eyes fixed on Himeno Natsuki's right hand, which was gripping an art knife.
