Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

"You don't hate him?"

Xue's mother was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, if this kind of thing happened to her daughter, Xue's mother would probably hate Kitahara Tsutomu.

Before she became the helmsman of the Yukinoshita family, she was first and foremost a mother, Yukino's mother.

Sayuri Sawamura sighed: "The story between Eriri and Tsuyoshi is a little complicated. It's not what you think. I'll tell you later."

Do you hate Kitahara Takashi?

I hate it for sure, but it's not to the point of hatred.

After all, the relationship between Kitahara Takashi and Eriri was a consensual mistake from the very beginning.

Kitahara Takashi was after the money, while Eriri was after Kitahara Takashi's face, which was extremely similar to Aki Tomoya's after he put on makeup, as well as the personality he pretended to have.

In other words, from the very beginning, both sides took what they needed.

It was just that in the process of each getting what they wanted, Eriri got into the role.

No, it should be said that the fake emotion gave birth to true love.

But Kitahara Takashi was very clear-headed from beginning to end.

After discovering that Eriri was thinking about falling in love, and now that she doesn't want to do this job anymore, is there any problem with unilaterally ending the relationship?

Moreover, Kitahara Takashi was very considerate. He did not play with their daughter's feelings, nor did he touch her. He even said goodbye to her on their behalf before breaking up with her.

In fact, with Kitahara Tsutomu's level, he could easily turn Eriri into his own daughter as long as he wanted.

The difference in rank between the two sides is too great; they are not even on the same level.

Playing with her is as easy as breathing.

Beiyuan Zun's restraint in stopping at the right time is considered to be restrained, but if you want to say that you are grateful to Beiyuan Zun... forget it.

The other person played with my daughter's feelings, cheated her of her money and her feelings, and then walked away, leaving us, the parents, to clean up the mess. And I should be grateful to him?

What's this?

To be honest, Sayuri Sawamura now has very complicated feelings towards Kitahara Takashi.

in case……

She meant if.

It would be better if Kitahara Takashi wasn't so fickle and was more honest and decent.

Then he and Eriri would be a perfect match.

'What am I thinking about?'

This thought only stayed in Sayuri Sawamura's mind for a second before she unilaterally rejected it.

If Kitahara Takashi was really honest and decent, then he would never be able to attract Eriri if she already liked Aki Tomoya first.

It is very likely that Eriri regarded him as a substitute for Tomoya Aki.

The reason is very simple. Honest and decent people would never do such a thing.

Because the education, morals, and values ​​they received since childhood do not allow them to poach a boy after knowing that the girl likes her.

Only a scumbag like Kitahara Takashi who has lowered his moral bottom line would do such a thing.

And does Eriri really like an honest man who can't say sweet words, can't provide emotional value, and doesn't understand the needs of his partner?

Is it because Eriri is honest that she likes Kitahara Takashi?

It is absolutely impossible.

As a woman, Sayuri Sawamura has the most say on this point.

If Kitahara Takashi was really that honest man, Eriri probably wouldn't care about him at all.

It would be better to say that it is precisely because Kitahara Takashi is a scumbag that he can attract Eriri.

Because he can always accurately understand what Eriri needs and increase the corresponding emotional value.

"Ugh!"

Thinking of this, Sayuri Sawamura's joy became even more complicated.

Well, an honest man likes you and a scumbag doesn’t like you.

Chapter 229 Let her come to see me.

Kitahara Takashi had no idea of ​​Sayuri Sawamura's complicated thoughts.

He first took a group photo with the people at Jiugou Dazhi's table, and then took a separate photo with each person and signed their names before ending.

"My signature isn't very nice, please forgive me."

Kitahara Takashi signed his name on the shirt that Jiugou Dazhi had just bought and had not worn yet. Looking at the words crawling like earthworms on it, he smiled bitterly.

Because his right hand was injured, he signed with his left hand.

Unfortunately, he is not left-handed, so his signature is ugly.

"If necessary, I can sign another one next time when my right hand recovers."

Kitahara Takashi suggested.

"No, this one is good enough."

Jiugou Dazhi happily gathered his clothes and complimented him, "When Kitahara-kun becomes successful, perhaps this autograph will become a rare piece and even more valuable."

When Jiugou Dazhi's men heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they beat their chests and stamped their feet.

How come they didn't think of this?

They saw that Kitahara Tsun's right hand was injured and his signature looked so ugly, so they didn't ask for his signature.

Even if they wanted it now, they were too embarrassed to ask for it.

'No wonder he became a minister.'

'Thinking is far-reaching.'

At the same time, they admired Jiugou Dazhi even more.

There is a reason why some people succeed.

Sure enough, they still have a lot to learn.

"Minister Jiugou, there's a reason why you can succeed."

Kitahara Tsutomu felt relaxed and refreshed after hearing this.

No wonder there are always treacherous ministers around the emperor.

Damn, these people speak so nicely.

What is language art?

"Kitahara-kun, I'll go cheer you on at the next game. I won't disturb your dinner today. We'll be leaving first."

Jiugou Dazhi did not stay long. He knew that Beiyuan Zun had other things to do, so he took the initiative to say goodbye.

When paying the bill, he did not forget to pay for Kitahara Takashi's table and left his phone number to indicate that he would pay for the subsequent expenses as well.

Even before leaving, he did not forget to turn the "Open" sign over and change it to "Closed"

thin.

I can only say that he has taken every aspect into consideration, which is very detailed.

"Kitahara-kun, I didn't expect you to become such a famous person. Please take a photo with me later."

Although Xue's mother was smiling and joking, she was actually surprised in her heart.

She saw all of Jiugou Dazhi's behavior.

The other party is willing to go to such a length, which shows that Kitahara Tsuyoshi's influence is so great that people would feel honored to take a photo with him.

This is terrible.

Throughout all the Koshien years, no one has been as popular as Kitahara Takashi.

Even Yoshida Terusei, who became famous in the Kinzoku no Koshien legend, is not as popular as Kitahara Takashi.

You know, Koshien hasn’t ended yet?

If the Koshien match was over, how angry he would be was something Xue's mother couldn't imagine.

Although the final has not been played yet, regardless of winning or losing the game, Kitahara Takashi will win everything.

If he wins, everyone will just brag about how great Kitahara Tsutomu is.

If he loses, everyone will just sympathize with him and like Kitahara Takashi more.

Unlike flower growers who like to watch comedies and happy family endings, the Japanese have always had a tragic plot.

"Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, death is as exquisite as autumn leaves." This poem by Tagore is widely circulated in Japan and is deeply loved by the Japanese.

This sentence perfectly caters to Japan's tragic plot.

First, Japan is a disaster-prone, resource-scarce island nation. Frequent natural disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, landslides, and volcanic eruptions have led to a climate in which Japanese people are prone to feelings of anxiety, fear, and disappointment. This experience has fostered a pessimistic mindset, believing that life is short and full of uncertainty.

Secondly, the influence of traditional culture also played an important role.

The famous line from the Manyoshu, Japan's oldest poetry collection, "Sight and fragrance all fade away, human affairs are impermanent," interprets the Japanese understanding of life.

In addition, cherry blossoms also have special meaning in Japanese culture.

Cherry blossoms symbolize the brevity and splendor of life. The Japanese believe that the most beautiful time for cherry blossoms is when they are about to wither. This concept is connected with the spirit of Bushido, implying the pessimism and impermanence of life and the tragic hero's complex feelings.

Finally, whether reading a book or watching a play, the Japanese prefer tragedy.

This preference is reflected in their literary works, such as the story of Princess Kaguya in The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, who ultimately ascends to heaven, and the story of Chushingura, where the ronin who have successfully avenged themselves commit seppuku. These works, imbued with the idea that life is short and unpredictable, align with the Japanese sentiment of tragedy.

This may also be the reason why so many Japanese cartoonists like to write the male and female protagonists to die.

Sometimes tragedy is also a kind of beauty.

But it’s meaningless to die just for the sake of dying, as I said.

If you don’t mind not eating shit, you can go and see my recommendation.

"It's just an empty name."

Although Kitahara Tsutomu said this, his mouth corners were actually raised to the sky.

"How about it, little tablet, are you convinced?"

He also did not forget to raise his eyebrows at Yukinoshita Yukino, with a look of smugness on his face.

Yukinoshita Yukino turned her head away and didn't look at this stinky guy.

"Sir, please sit down."

At this time, Sayuri Sawamura had completely calmed down.

She knocked on the door opposite her, motioning for Kitahara Takashi to sit down and talk.

"Okay, Mom!"

Kitahara Takashi sat down opposite Sawamura Sayuri with a bitter look on his face.

The kind that sits upright and solemnly.

When Katsura Kotonoha saw that Kitahara Takashi was called to another table by Sayuri Sawamura, she was about to get up and follow him, but when Yuki's mother noticed her, she put a hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her back into the chair.

"What they are going to talk about next is private matters, so it's not convenient for you to listen."

"But don't worry, Sayuri won't do anything to Kitahara Takashi. I want you to promise me that, Kotonoha."

After hearing what Xue's mother said, Gui Yanye was still worried, but she could only wait.

"Let me chat with you guys."

Yuki's mother sat down next to Yukino, and her eyes swept over Hoshino Ai, Katsura Kotonoha, Yanagisaka Arisu, Ichinose Honami and her own daughter one by one.

"Who among you likes Kitahara-kun?"
