Mygo, the band legend of Tokyo handsome guy

"Oh dear, you could have just called out 'Minami' along with Mutsu."

"Aunt..."

“Ahhh…” Minami sighed, “Seeing you young people so loving makes me feel old.”

Toyokawa Shoko said, "Actually, you look younger than Komu."

If it weren't for other things keeping him going, Mu would look like he's in his twilight years.

"Haha, Xiang-chan is really good at joking, but Auntie is already an old auntie."

Mori Minami said with a smile, "Younger than Mutsu? That's not true at all. Please take good care of Mutsu from now on, Sho-chan!"

Toyokawa Shoko nodded, "I will."

After declining the dinner invitation from Wakaba Mutsumi's mother to have everyone get together, only the two of them remained in the room.

Naruzawa Kaede sat down opposite Shoko, in the seat that Mori Minami had originally occupied. The leather sofa was still warm and even a little damp... Had Mori Minami been sweating?

Was Xiangzi really that intimidating to her just now?

"Feng, it's been so long...you don't even say anything..."

Shoko Toyokawa spoke, her face flushed with embarrassment. Her fingers crossed in front of her, her gaze falling on the documents that Minami Mori hadn't taken with her.

"Hmm, aren't you curious about what's here?"

"...I think I've guessed it. Mutsumi's medical record, right? When I took Mutsumi for a checkup before, they didn't find anything wrong with him. Was this someone the Toyokawa family hired?"

"Damn it~ It's just a normal hospital report."

Shoko Toyokawa placed her hand on her knee and groped around, then lifted her chin to point at the document.

Xiangzi said softly, "Let's take a look..."

"...Is Mu's condition serious?"

Mingze Feng nodded and reached for the documents on the table.

Toyokawa Shoko raised her finger to support her chin, her voice slowly rising.

“Feng, you know what? I’ve come to understand something over the past month… Sometimes it’s okay to be unreasonable. Just like between you and me before. You used to hold me tight in your arms without any reason.”

"Many times, reasoning doesn't work, but once you stop reasoning, the whole world becomes incredibly lovely."

The case before us is indeed a medical record.

But it's definitely not neurology or craniotomy, it's gynecology.

Something exploded in Mingze Feng's head. It wasn't Xiangzi, nor anyone else, but Mu?

"..."

Is this for real? Holy crap, I only brushed against it that night and didn't actually go in!

Shoko Toyokawa nodded repeatedly, smiling, and said, "Yes, yes. It's fake. I was just curious what Auntie would do, and you saw it yourself... But you can make it real too. Interested?"

Dare not say.

Mingze Feng licked his lips; even though he had drunk quite a bit of water earlier, his mouth was dry again.

"Xiangzi, I..."

If given a choice, Mingze Feng would rather gang up on eighteen burly men than endure this hellish torment here.

Chapter 77 Toyokawa Shoko as Always

In the quiet room, the howling wind outside the window could be heard even more clearly. The clock ticked away, and Toyokawa Shoko silently observed the changes in Narusawa Kaede's expression, trying not to miss a single detail.

Mingze Feng's expression gradually calmed down. He raised his eyes and looked at Toyokawa Shoko across the distance.

Toyokawa Shoko couldn't understand what Narusawa Kaede was thinking.

Toyokawa Shoko probably considered that Narusawa Kaede would sense something was amiss and wouldn't take the bait immediately. Perhaps Narusawa Kaede would frown, feeling that her actions were disrespectful to Wakaba Mutsuki.

Toyokawa Shoko had no intention of arguing about this. In fact, if Wakaba Mutsumi hadn't been Shoko's childhood friend since kindergarten, she would have dragged him straight to the basement.

In fact, before today, Toyokawa Shoko had only considered one thing.

Won't doing this scare Naruzawa Kaede?

If she gets scared, Toyokawa Shoko will not only not stop, but will go all out and do something big.

Pluck the unwanted feathers from the wings of Naruzawa Kaede.

Afterwards, I'll go all out with Mingze Feng to make up for it.

Although it happened earlier than Toyokawa Shoko had anticipated. According to her plan, all of this would have happened once she was fully capable and had completely taken over the Toyokawa family, then she would take a multi-pronged approach to resolve the issue of everyone within a single day.

But Mingze Feng has really gone too far lately.

Recalling the report the Toyokawa family had given her, the report detailing the number of girls Narusawa Kaede had been involved with, Toyokawa Shoko, located at the Toyokawa Products headquarters, couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Especially recently, with Naruzawa Kaede dating more and more different girls, Toyokawa Shoko really couldn't resist the urge to pick up the ashtray on the table and smash it.

If we don't control him, this guy might just grab any woman on the street and start groping her!

Oh, no, that's not right. Hiroi Kikuri's poop was done by this guy on the roadside.

Thinking of this, Toyokawa Shoko felt a pang of pain but also a sense of helplessness, because she had also been seduced in the same way.

Therefore, it is necessary to control Naruzawa Kaede.

However, these past few weeks of work and life have taught her to control her impulses. Anger only affects her judgment of the big picture; only with a clear goal can she accomplish something.

It is becoming an increasingly common consensus that reason alone cannot convince people. In other words, only those who have been convinced will listen to your reasoning.

All principles are not meant to be spoken.

Toyokawa Shoko now intends to personally 'persuade' Narusawa Kaede. This report is just the beginning. As Toyokawa Shoko surveys her surroundings, she realizes she has far too many cards to play.

The band journeys of Mitsumi Hatsuka and SickHack, the financing partnership with Yamada Pharmaceutical Group. She could even purchase several properties in Shimokitazawa if she wanted. Although Shimokitazawa High School is a public school, it doesn't refuse donations from the community.

In addition, there's the Wakaba Mutsumi that she got her hands on today.

Just like when facing Wakaba Mutsumi's mother, this report was merely the final blow. The real strategy had been laid long before, with the allocation of resources and overt and covert hints...

By bringing Narusawa Kaede here, Toyokawa Shoko intended to mislead her aunt, Wakaba Mutsu's mother.

Yes, the child is Feng's, so what? She doesn't need to worry about anything else. As long as she, Fengchuan Xiangzi, is still alive, the Fengchuan Group will treat her family well.

If a fish dares to bite the hook, it means there are fish in the river, and Toyokawa Shoko will dare to cast his net and wipe out his entire family.

Mingze Feng saw all of this, which is why he remained silent.

There is a sentence that perfectly explains his situation.

This has been orchestrated by capital.

"...Feng, what do you think? Should we make this report official?"

Despite the unexpectedly strong impact of Narusawa Kaede's arrival on the report, Toyokawa Shoko remained calm.

At this moment, she is fully equipped and has a flying dragon charging towards her. How could she possibly lose?

With this thought, Toyokawa Shoko felt a little calmer. She interlaced her fingers again, placed them on her knees, and then raised her agate-like golden eyes.

Mingze Feng was also thinking about how to do it well.

He couldn't possibly listen to Shoko and have a child with Mutsu. Although Mutsu might be happy, it's obvious that Shoko Toyokawa wasn't doing this out of kindness to help him build a harem.

If you go to Hemu to give birth today, you'll only be able to work hard like Xiangzi tomorrow.

Toyokawa Shoko blinked and chuckled, "I'll take that as a yes. If you agree, come stay at my villa for the next few days. Mutsu will be there too. I've prepared a surprise for you there."

"I will provide the best medical care in the world, a peaceful pregnancy, and the child's education. You won't have to worry about anything. In the name of Toyokawa, I will treat her as my own daughter."

As Toyokawa Shoko spoke, she couldn't help but want to laugh. She hadn't felt this happy even after successfully closing a project before, but at this moment, looking at Narusawa Kaede who seemed about to be knocked unconscious by her, Toyokawa Shoko just wanted to laugh.

Mingze Feng took a deep breath, pondering to himself, wondering how far Xiangzi would go.

"Xiangzi, if I did something wrong, I'll correct it, okay? Don't take it out on Xiaomu..."

You can tell.

Toyokawa Shoko let out a soft hum, her voice becoming delicate with excitement, and cried out, "No way~"

Why are we still talking about Xiao Mu at this point?

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly wanted to show off her efforts. Although she had learned the lessons of pride leading to defeat, the dangers of loose lips sinking, and the importance of not revealing one's hand too easily, at this moment, facing Narusawa Kaede who was about to admit defeat, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help herself.

If you had to choose all of them, who would you pick?

"Feng, don't you like Mu? Mu has been waiting for you for a long time, hasn't she? Or other girls, Feng, just tell me, it's no problem."

Toyokawa Shoko counted her fingers on her knees, one, two...

"She's the Yamada family's daughter? That's impressive. I oversaw a financing deal with Yamada Pharmaceuticals a few days ago."

"Is it Mana-chan, who's been really popular lately? I'll cancel her activities tomorrow and have her come over."

"That shop owner in Shimokitazawa? Toyokawa Realty is the next department I'll be taking over, hehe..."

"That's enough... Xiang..."

"What do you mean, 'can't'? There are still a lot of students and older women involved in rock music that I haven't even counted—"

"The person I truly want to have children with is you!"

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko's smile froze, and even her breathing became labored. Her carefully styled hair fell across her forehead, and she suppressed her smile, gazing silently at Narusawa Kaede.

Mingze Feng looked at Xiangzi, who was stunned, and before she could speak, he spoke first, "Xiang, I want to have a child with you. Maybe you will think that this is just me trying to coax you out of the trap you have set, just like I usually coax other girls."

But actually—

"Of course I wouldn't think that way."

Before Naruzawa Kaede could finish speaking, Toyokawa Shoko interrupted her. She raised her head, her face stiff.

But Naruzawa Kaede could tell.

She was trying to hide her inner turmoil.

"Don't I know you? You wouldn't do this to other girls. If I hadn't pushed you to this point, who would you have wanted to have a child with?!"

Toyokawa Shoko's shouts echoed in the room. She suppressed her turbulent emotions and cursed:

"You're just a selfish person who only cares about your own happiness. You bastard, you're only thinking about yourself!"

"However... you were right about one thing before."

Toyokawa Shoko sighed, her voice suddenly dropping, filled with an indescribable weariness and self-mockery: "Just like you said, I'm that kind of person too... So, Kaede. Why can't you stand on my side?"

After saying that, Toyokawa Shoko seemed to have all her strength drained away. She sat there stiffly, unable to muster any more authority. Her eyes were downcast, her fingers still interlaced on her knees, as if clinging to the last shred of dignity.

She didn't cry, not even a hint of tears welled up in her eyes. But Mingze Feng suddenly felt that Xiangzi in front of him was truly heartbreaking.

He clenched his fist in the air, his knuckles twitching slightly, before finally standing up, walking to her, slowly bending down, and gently wrapping his arms around her.

It's neither consolation nor charity.

Simply and gently surround her.

Like a beam of warm sunlight slanting in through the window in the dead of winter.

It was a cold, unheated room in the dead of winter, with wind and snow lashing against the windows. Toyokawa Shoko remembered it clearly; she was lying in Narusawa Kaede's arms, covered in sweat from his restless movements.

The two lay together, quietly watching the white snowflakes flashing past the window.

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly felt an itch on her shoulder, and the dampness that had lingered near her ear seemed to have traveled across time and space to reach her.

Even the sound of the wind outside the window softened at this moment, passing through the glass and silently bypassing the two of them. In that brief moment of silence, Toyokawa Shoko finally buried her face in Narusawa's arms.

"I've always been by your side."

Ming Zefeng leaned close to her ear, his voice low and slow, just like the sweet nothings he had said to countless other girls.

"Go say those things to those girls."

Shoko Toyokawa suppressed a trembling voice as she raised her hand and gently pushed Narusawa Kaede's body, but her arm was too weak to move.

Mingze Feng gently patted her back, one pat at a time, with extreme tenderness. It was like comforting a wounded child, or soothing some emotion that was about to spiral out of control.

Toyokawa Shoko's shoulders were stiff at first, but that forced uprightness gradually loosened, as if she was finally willing to temporarily stop being the perfect "Toyokawa Shoko" and just be an ordinary girl who felt pain and tired.
