Tokyo: Starting with a fake boyfriend

Throwing the clothes away made her feel relieved.

While daughters shouldn't expect their parents to divorce, it's a different story if the price of maintaining the marriage is that the mother is constantly heartbroken and in tears.

"Don't ruin the clothes, he'll probably come back to pick them up later."

Seeing her throw her clothes, Yamabuki thought it was cute and satisfying, but she still chose to stop her.

"Clothes don't wear out that easily, this way it's faster."

Minami Yamabuki didn't take the advice to heart. She just wanted to get her father's things out of her mother's room as soon as possible, finish the job, and then go to the living room to review the battle in the entryway with Shu-kun.

"His clothes are very fragile. They're all worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, with the most expensive piece costing over three million. If a button or pendant gets knocked off, it will be a big problem."

Discovering that someone with such a gentle personality could still get angry, Yamabuki felt both heartened and somewhat helpless.

"So expensive?"

Yamabuki Minami, who had picked up a pile of clothes and was about to throw them on the ground, was suddenly startled and looked down at the bundle of clothes in her arms.

My father's clothes are mostly suits and shirts... These kinds of clothes are indeed more prone to damage, so we should handle them with care.

"After all, he is the president of a company, and he needs to dress appropriately, otherwise people will look down on him."

Seeing that she no longer littered but gently placed the items on the ground, Yamabuki was immediately amused.

A suit costing three million yen isn't actually that expensive in the world of fully custom-made suits; it just touches the threshold of the high-end market.

"Mom, what's the most expensive piece of clothing you own that cost?"

"12."

"Isn't this a huge difference? Mom, is it because he's unwilling to spend money on you?"

When Minami Yamabuki learned about the price difference, she frowned and spoke up for her mother.

She discovered another flaw in her father: he was stingy.

“He bought me some very expensive clothes, but I returned them because I felt they were unnecessary, and cheaper clothes also looked great.”

Although they were getting a divorce tomorrow, Yamabuki had no intention of smearing her ex-husband and shook her head truthfully.

She doesn't like to be in the public eye and always keeps a low profile, so she returned the evening gown that Tomoya bought for her.

"Mom, you're so beautiful, you look good in anything, there's really no need for that."

Minami Yamabuki realized that her mother was too thrifty, which was why her clothes were so cheap, and laughed.

Her mother is beautiful, incredibly beautiful.

Today, her mother came to the school to bring her lunch, and the whole class was excited, praising her mother.

"You..."

Yamabuki was surprised by her words and was overjoyed by the compliment. She gave her a slightly embarrassed look and continued packing her clothes.

She gave him a look that was both delighted and embarrassed, and Yamabuki Minami immediately beamed with joy and buried herself in tidying up.

Packing up all of a person's belongings is a huge undertaking, especially in a place where you've lived for many years.

However, as a full-time housewife, Yamabuki was already used to doing housework, and she was quick and skilled at tidying clothes, so her progress was quite obvious.

"Mother."

After a while, the tranquility of the dressing room was broken once again.

"what happened?"

Yamabuki, who was concentrating on folding clothes, looked up at the sound, but she was stunned when she saw it.

The daughter was holding up a purple lace bra, staring at it with wide, incredulous eyes, as if she had seen a rare and precious treasure.

How old are you exactly?

Minami Yamabuki was genuinely shocked when she looked at the purple lace bra in her hand.

Although she knew her mother was big, this was still way too big!

Because her mother usually does all the housework, this was the first time she had ever seen her mother's underwear.

"You child..."

Upon hearing these words, Yamabuki snapped out of her daze and hurriedly stepped forward to snatch it away, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

Having successfully made his mother blush with embarrassment, Minami Yamabuki couldn't help but giggle.

Actually, she wasn't that mischievous, but her mother's shy reaction was so cute that she couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Stop laughing. Hurry up and pack your things. Shiratori-kun is waiting."

Yamabuki, who had hidden her underwear behind her back, glared at him reproachfully when she saw him still grinning.

Fortunately, Shiratori-kun didn't go into the room to pack her things, but stayed outside with good self-awareness. Otherwise, if her underwear had been seen, she would have been mortified.

"That's right."

Realizing that Xiu-kun was still waiting outside, Yamabuki Minami immediately lost her playful mood and began to tidy up seriously.

At the same time, Yamabuki took the underwear back to her previous spot, put it aside, and continued folding clothes.

"If Shiratori-kun had been here just now, what would his reaction have been?"

As she folded the clothes, Yamabuki glanced at the purple lace bra next to her out of the corner of her eye. Thinking of Shiratori Osamu in the living room, her heart suddenly raced.

It wasn't that she wanted Shiratori Osamu to see it, but her daughter's stunned reaction just now seemed quite amusing, so she was a little curious about how this innocent young man would react if he saw the underwear.

Will they blush? Or be stunned? Or perhaps be full of energy?

"Xue, what are you thinking? This person is your daughter's classmate, and you're not even divorced yet! How shameless!"

Just as her thoughts were about to wander, Yamabuki suddenly snapped back to reality and inwardly cursed herself for being embarrassed.

…………

It's not easy to pack up someone's things.

The wait was long, but Shiratori Osamu didn't waste any time. After sorting out his thoughts, he ran to the entrance hall to get his schoolbag and sat on the floor to study Math A.

"Xiu Jun, are you free? Could you come and help me out?"

Just then, a shout rang out from the Yamabuki residence.

"coming."

Although Shiratori Osamu was studying diligently, upon hearing her plea for help, he decisively put down his pen, got up, and went to follow the sound.

"I'm so sorry, it's affecting your studies... The box is really, really heavy, my mom and I can't move it at all."

Standing at the door of the room, Minami Yamabuki felt a little embarrassed when he came over.

She knew Shiratori Osamu was studying because she had gone to the storeroom during that time and brought back a storage box.

Although it is said that a mother and daughter working together can overcome any obstacle, the huge storage box filled with clothes was heavier than expected, and it would be bad if it were to be pushed on the ground and scratched the floor.

"..."

As Shan Fubuki, who was standing guard by the door, saw him walking towards her step by step, her pretty face blushed slightly.

"It's okay, where's the box?"

Upon noticing that his mother-in-law's face was flushed from working for too long, Shiratori asked her what was wrong.

Although the air conditioning is on 24 hours a day, it can still get hot after working in an air-conditioned room for a long time.

"In the dressing room."

Yamabuki Minami pointed to the inside of the room.

"Could you move the suitcase over here? It's not really convenient for a man like me to go into my mother-in-law's room."

Upon learning of this situation, Shiratori Osamu felt somewhat troubled.

Although he really wanted to help, there was a difference between men and women.

He might be allowed to enter and leave Minami Yamabuki's room, but entering and leaving his mother-in-law's room was another matter entirely.

Moreover, when Xiao Nan suggested helping out, he noticed that his mother-in-law's expression was somewhat stiff and conflicted, clearly indicating that she didn't want him to come into the room to help.

This is normal. After all, the mother-in-law is a married woman and a good wife who keeps her distance from any man other than her husband.

“We can’t push it.” Yamabuki Minami shook her head.

"Shiratori-kun, please come in... Minami and I can't move this, we really need your help." Seeing that he was still so considerate, Yamabuki felt ashamed and stammered her words.

Although her husband had just left the house, she felt it wasn't right to let a man into her room... but there was nothing she could do, since she and her daughter really couldn't move the things.

If we try to move her by force, my daughter might get hurt, like straining her back or twisting her ankle, which would be a real problem.

"Okay, I'll go in then, and come out as soon as I've moved my things."

Noticing that his mother-in-law was embarrassed but still agreed, Shiratori Osamu thought it over and agreed as well.

He was thinking that since the box was very heavy, he could move it by taking the contents out of it.

But since his mother-in-law had already agreed to let him in, it would be impolite for him to refuse.

"Come with me."

Minami Yamabuki was aware of his and her mother's concerns, and seeing that they had reached a consensus, she immediately led the way for him.

As he and his daughter passed her and entered the room, Yamabuki followed behind, her heart pounding, constantly trying to convince herself:

"It's alright. Shiratori-kun will only be here for a short while, less than 5 minutes at most. He's not freely coming and going from my room, nor is he staying in there for a long time. It's fine."

Chapter 90 The Blessing of Having Multiple Women

Following behind Minami Yamabuki, Osamu Shiratori entered his mother-in-law's room.

Perhaps because my mother-in-law has lived there for many years, there is a faint, elegant fragrance in the room that smells very pleasant and refreshing.

To avoid suspicion, Shiratori Osamu didn't look around, but simply followed the footsteps in front of him.

In no time, he walked into the walk-in closet in the bedroom.

"..."

As soon as he stepped into the dressing room, Shiratori Osamu paused for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

Unlike the bedroom, which is too spacious, the walk-in closet has a rich, fresh, and elegant fragrance.

"Jasmine... Is the scent on my mother-in-law jasmine?"

Although Osamu Shiratori is not a perfume master, he smelled it so clearly this time that he was able to identify the main ingredients.

The scent of jasmine is actually quite easy to identify, but he had always kept a considerable distance from his mother-in-law, so it was difficult to confirm.

"It's this box."

Minami Yamabuki was already used to her mother's taste, so she didn't feel anything special. She just walked over to the huge storage box in the room.

"Why didn't they consider taking out half of the clothes and moving them separately?"

Seeing this light blue, transparent storage box, about 1.4 meters long and 1 meter wide, piled high with clothes, Shiratori Xiu couldn't help but think.

Actually, he had already thought of that earlier. This thing isn't a one-piece heavy object like a cabinet that can be disassembled and changed, so why not take it apart and move it?

Were the mother-in-law and Xiao Nan exhausted from all the work? Or did they simply not want to go through the hassle of repeated tasks?

That being said, he had nothing to complain about.

After all, he had opened a new map, which was his mother-in-law's room, so he had satisfied his curiosity before leaving.

"Xiujun, you move over there, Mom and I will move over here."

As he approached, Minami Yamabuki spoke.

"I'll give it a try first."

Instead of obeying, Shiratori Shu walked to the side, bent down, opened his arms, and clamped both ends. He adjusted his posture, found the right point of force, and began to exert force.

The storage box was lifted off the ground, above knee height, and he lifted it steadily with a push of his knee.

I don't know how many clothes were stuffed inside, it's quite heavy, probably over 100 pounds.

He couldn't calculate the exact weight, even though his focused state was impressive, he wasn't a weighing scale.

"Wow! Xiu-jun, you're incredibly strong!"
