Why does the good husband not forget the past of being bullied by the evil woman after marriage?

He originally just wanted to wash his face and come back, but the crisp sound of high heels kept echoing in his mind and couldn't dissipate for a long time, and he missed the time without paying attention.

The more he couldn't be sure whether it was his illusion, the more he cared about it. His left eyelid kept twitching for no reason, his stomach felt uncomfortable, and he had an urge to vomit.

Once bitten by a snake, you will have to live under the shadow of that unbearable period for the rest of your life, in constant fear.

After the group meeting, I went to the security room to check the surveillance video at the bathroom door.

Shimizu Hiroki made a decision secretly. Even if there was a 99% chance that he was just overthinking it, he was determined to completely kill the remaining 1%.

Standing at the door of the conference room, Hiroki Shimizu took a deep breath, prepared himself to face Yamada's anger, and then pushed the door open.

"Section Chief Shimizu is here!"

"Finally it's here. Poor Section Chief Shimizu is going to be scolded."

"Don't worry, Director Yamada will probably give us some leeway for the sake of the new director."

……

"I'm late and I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time."

Hiroki Shimizu demonstrated the traditional skills of the Japanese people and chose to bow his head to apologize with a very sincere attitude.

This was also the first time he had made such a serious mistake in the three years since he joined the department.

It was very quiet...not normal quiet.

Hiroki Shimizu raised his head, looked across the long and narrow conference table, and followed the gazes of several male colleagues who were sitting upright and deliberately lowering their heads, but were all secretly looking in the same direction at the same time.

He therefore met the woman's indifferent and distant narrow eyes. He didn't even need to look at anything else. He spontaneously reproduced other details from that dusty memory and overlapped them on the face of the woman in front of him without any error.

On the other side, the woman looked at Shimizu Yuuki with a confused look. She side-glanced and asked in a low voice, "Who is this?"

Yamada explained the truth, and although he was one level higher in rank, he used honorifics.

"This is Section Chief Shimizu that Director Sakai and I mentioned. He has excellent professional skills. I originally wanted to arrange for him to help you familiarize yourself with the business of our department."

"I understand. Is everyone here now?" The woman did not respond much and still had no expression on her face.

"Everyone is here."

“Then let me introduce myself.

The woman stood up, revealing her tall and well-proportioned figure. She was wearing a white shirt and straight-legged suit trousers, and long, thin high-heeled shoes with narrow soles. The veins on her white instep were floating, and the soles of her feet and the steep uppers formed an attractive arch.

Beneath her smart and powerful attire lies a mature and attractive temperament, and the look she gives around the audience is full of the aura of a superior.

"My name is Mina Sakai. I will be the director of your department from now on. Please take care of me."

After a concise self-introduction and a look from Director Yamada, warm applause immediately broke out in the conference room.

Of all the people present, only Shimizu Hiroki stood at the door of the conference room, his eyes unfocused and without any reaction.

Yamada's heart skipped a beat, feeling something was wrong, and he yelled.

"Section Chief Shimizu, why aren't you clapping? Do you have any opinion about Director Sakai?"

"What's wrong with you today? You're so depressed that you don't want the position of section chief even after you've even gotten comfortable in the position?" Shirohei Changichi also became anxious and secretly pulled the corner of Shimizu Yuki's clothes.

Mina Sakai looked unhappy. She suddenly stood up, ignored the awkward atmosphere, and walked straight towards Hiroki Shimizu.

"Don't be angry, Director Sakai. Section Chief Shimizu is just feeling unwell. He is such a coward... I don't think he would dare to offend you."

As expected of a friendship where they often went out for midnight snacks, Cheng Pingchang gritted his teeth and stood up, wanting to plead for Shimizu Yuki.

one second.

Without waiting for Mina Sakai to speak, the eye contact alone was enough to make Cheng Pingchang's legs go weak, and he slid to his knees and stepped aside.

I'm sorry... Qingshui, I'm just a useless man and I really can't help you this time.

Mina Sakai came in front of Hiroki Shimizu.

The echo of high heels hitting the floor was crisp... rhythmic, exactly the same sound he heard in the men's bathroom.

It turns out that all this was not an illusion, but actually happened.

At first he was just in a daze, not realizing what it meant for this woman named Mina Sakai to appear in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, the body reacted physiologically. The stomach began to cramp and the sour gastric juice repeatedly burned the esophagus. It was as if I had witnessed the most disgusting thing in the world. The desire to vomit was stronger than ever before.

Hiroki Shimizu covered his mouth, held onto the conference table with his hands, and his condition took a sharp turn for the worse.

He once thought that this physiological reaction was a disease, so he went to the hospital and the doctor said it was neurotic vomiting, and that traumatic disorders could trigger this physical reaction.

The name, appearance, voice... all matched, but he still didn't give up. Section Chief Shimizu, who was mature, steady and reliable in the eyes of his colleagues, now seemed naive and a little ridiculous.

Holding on to the last bit of innocent hope, Shimizu Yuuki spoke hoarsely.

"Sakai Mina? The Sakai family in Nagano..."

"Alright, alright, seriously, you can't recognize me after all this time? You have to face reality sometimes. Although the naive Yuuki is cute too."

Mina Sakai turned her back to everyone and faced Shimizu Hiroki, and her expression changed in an instant.

The woman narrowed her eyes, her eye ends curved long, her dark pupils rolled upwards, leaving only 60% of the whites. Her cheeks bulged slightly, as if she was swallowing something. Her soft, pink tongue was as flexible as a snake, wetting her lips with saliva, and the plump lips painted with glaze suddenly became as bright as blood.

The stern and indifferent female boss in the last second turned into a vulgar and slutty woman who was in the midst of orgasm in the next second.

"What about now? After all, it's been so long, and Yuuki-kun hasn't seen the real me much, so it's inevitable that he would forget.

But if it's this face now... Yuki has admired it so many times, I'm sure it's still fresh in your memory, right?"

Seven years have passed, and it feels like a maggot on the heel... Countless days and nights, countless nightmares, and fear to the point of neurasthenia, as if I was hung high up and could never land.

Until this moment...the heart that had been suspended for so long finally fell to the ground and shattered.

With a dead heart, Hiroki Shimizu's dark eyes completely lost their luster.

7. I can’t eat it! My wife’s loving lunch box

The dusty memories are like an opened Pandora's box, slowly emerging before my eyes with a touch of pain.

Yuki Shimizu felt cold all over, as if he had fallen into the bottom of the sea. Not only was he unable to breathe, but even his limbs were entangled by seaweed with fangs, making it impossible for him to move at all.

The greatest fear in the world is that the guy who was once thrown into the abyss by his own hands suddenly appears in front of him without any warning at some point many years later.

Unharmed and yet with an unknown purpose...the unknown fear turned into a cage, completely imprisoning him here.

And the instigator was standing right in front of him.

Two extremely contrasting expressions changed freely on Mina Sakai's highly plastic and extremely beautiful face.

Mina Sakai turned around and transformed herself into a cold female boss again, stern, with sharp eyes and a sarcastic tone.

"I've heard that your department has lax discipline, but I didn't expect that as a section chief... not only would you fail to set an example, but you would actually be the first to be late for the team meeting. If an employee under me made such a mistake, I would not show up at the company the next day."

A show of force... This was definitely an undisguised show of force. The new official wanted to target Section Chief Shimizu as soon as he took office. The employees off the field all looked indignant and worried for Hiroki Shimizu.

"Minister Sakai is telling you that it's all my fault for not teaching you well."

Director Yamada was already sweating profusely. Mina Sakai was able to take up such a high position as director right after returning from an overseas branch. There must be a very strong backer behind her. She might even be a spy planted by the company's top management.

He cursed Shimizu Hiroki a thousand times in his heart, thinking that the other party was deliberately trying to embarrass him in revenge for being exiled to the frontier by him, and that was why he created such a farce today.

"Why don't you admit your mistake and apologize immediately! Section Chief Shimizu!"

Hiroki Shimizu finally came to his senses. No matter how out of shape he was, or what Mina Sakai would do to him next, it was not as important as keeping the job in front of him.

After weighing the priorities, he looked up at Mina Sakai who had already returned to her seat.

The woman crossed her legs, with a casual and contemptuous expression on her face. She tilted her head slightly and propped up one cheek with the back of her hand. Her jet-black medium-length hair fell down, revealing a uniquely shaped crystal pendant on her earlobe.

"Yes...it's all my fault. I'm not feeling well today. It's not that I have any problem with Minister Sakai."

Hiroki Shimizu licked his dry lips, his trembling voice was filled with suppressed pain, but he had to endure the great humiliation, forced a smile from the corners of his lips, and bowed his head to apologize to the woman.

"Now I will give a speech for this project."

During the entire two-hour group meeting, Hiroki Shimizu gave his speech numbly like a robot without independent thoughts.

Mina Sakai did not do anything out of the ordinary, nor did she have any verbal exchange with Shimizu Hiroki. She just sat one meter away from him, her eyes never leaving him for even a second.

It's like treating a living human being... as an object that belongs only to oneself, using one's noble birth and power to wantonly crush humanity and dignity. It's full of superior possessiveness and control, it's completely unreasonable and disgusting.

This is what Shimizu Hiroki endured and hated for a long time during his three years in high school during that dark past, and he still feels fear when he thinks about it.

……

After the group meeting, Cheng Pingchangyi first found Shimizu Yuki and invited him to have dinner in the company restaurant.

"I won't go. I just want to take a rest now."

After returning from the conference room, Hiroki Shimizu sat at his workstation and did not go anywhere.

Or maybe she doesn't dare to go. If she can't find him when she wants to see him, it won't be surprising what that moody woman will do.

Unconsciously, Hiroki Shimizu accidentally brought himself into the role of the past. Thinking of this, an indescribable sadness filled his chest.

Seven years of psychological construction and self-healing completely and utterly fell apart the moment he saw Mina Sakai, one of the sources of his pain.

"Well, you damned fellow, it turns out you were hiding the love lunch box prepared by my lovely wife at home. I said I could smell the sour odor of love as soon as I came to you, how could I let you go!"

Cheng Pingchang was quick-witted and found the lunch box that Shimizu Hiroki had placed in the drawer of his desk. It was prepared by Erika this morning specifically for the love letter to Hiroki. As a punishment for Shimizu Hiroki's provocation of his wife's authority, Erika threw a tantrum and refused to tell him the contents of the lunch box.

Erika, what is his wife Erika doing at home?

Is she cleaning the house, buying food at the market to prepare dinner, or maybe mending his worn-out clothes...

As luck would have it, Shimizu Hiroki suddenly missed Erika. Even though he was away on business trips and hadn't seen her for a month, it was not even one-tenth as much as he missed her at this moment.

Shimizu Hiroki took the bento back from Shirohei Changyi. Shirohei was so envious and jealous that he had to go to the restaurant alone.

He opened the lunch box, and found that the contents were heart-shaped omelette rice!

Words were written with ketchup on the creamy yellow egg skin. The gentle and soft handwriting must have been written by Erika.

"Foolish Yuuki-kun, you have to eat them all!"

Even in such a terrible situation, Shimizu Hiroki couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but imagine Erika's gentle and lovely appearance in his mind.

No matter what...he still had Erika waiting for him at home.

Thinking of this, Shimizu Hiroki actually felt hungry again, so he picked up the rice spoon and prepared to eat.

"Section Chief Shimizu, please go to Director Sakai's office. It seems that he has some official business to discuss." A female colleague came to Hiroki Shimizu's workstation.

His heart skipped a beat, and Shimizu Yuuki's hand holding the rice spoon trembled a bit, and he confirmed, "Do you want it now? The lunch break isn't over yet."

"It can only be now! Director Sakai also said... Section Chief Shimizu is a sensible person who knows what is important and what is not. He will put the interests of the company first."

The female colleague imitated Mina Sakai's tone of voice, sounding extremely cold and threatening.

"I...I understand."

The female colleague saw that Shimizu Yuki was pale and his eyes were dull. She couldn't bear it and comforted him softly.

"Director Sakai probably just wants to establish his authority in our department and needs to find a scapegoat. It's just a lot of noise but little action. Section Chief Shimizu shouldn't worry too much."

After the female colleague left, Shimizu Hiroki looked at the omelette rice bento that Erika had prepared for him, and suddenly took a big bite, chewing it hard in his mouth.

Despite Erika's superb cooking skills, it tasted like chewing wax at this moment.

He couldn't help but imagine Mina Sakai waiting in the office for him to fall into her trap, and what a smug look would appear on that beautiful and enchanting face.

How would this woman, who was once thrown into the abyss by him and must have lived a painless life in the past seven years, take revenge on him?

Maybe he alone is not enough...even the innocent Erika needs...

Hiroki Shimizu suddenly and sadly discovered a vicious circle from which he could not escape.

The more he loved his wife Erika, the stronger the fear in his heart became, even stronger than before!

The urge to vomit was stronger than ever before, so he lowered his head and vomited out his wife's loving lunch box into the trash can at his feet.

8. Pressing forward! Hiroki Shimizu has no way out

Minister's Office.

Hiroki Shimizu stood at the door, like a subordinate who had made a mistake, and was nervous about the anger of his boss that he was about to face.

The nameplate on the edge of the door frame was replaced with the word "Sakai" early on. After three years of hard work, Hiroki Shimizu was only able to become a section chief. He was even feared by his superiors because of his rapid promotion momentum.

But this woman... she was at a level he couldn't reach from the start, whether in terms of birth or power... the gap between them was so huge that it couldn't be described by the word chasm, and it made it impossible for him to have the slightest desire to resist.
