Author: Return in the drizzle

[Both you and Moritani Yuko noticed that Shizu had changed a little, but not completely.]

[You think, maybe you were too gentle. After Yuko Moritani took away the last money, you should have shown extreme regret and become a useless person. Only in this way can you give Jing the greatest stimulation. 】

[But it’s enough now. These changes are enough for Shizu to fight against Yuko Moritani. 】

[Yuko Moritani was unwilling to give in. She went to look for her daughter many times, begging or coercing her, but she didn’t get any help. Shizu couldn’t help her, and the money is all yours.]

[Yuko Moritani is a little afraid of you, but she ran into trouble many times with Shizu, so she had to find you.]

[She wants you to sever the father-daughter relationship with Jing. Jing is her daughter, and Jing’s salary should be given to her. 】

[What she didn’t know was that Jing was also at home that day.]

[Staying quietly in the room, I think what my mother said is quite good. The good here only refers to the first half of the sentence.]

【She wants to sever the father-daughter relationship with you so that she can call you by the same name as Shiori.】

【She was disappointed that you didn't agree.】

[You drove away Yuko Moritani, walked out of the room quietly, and lay down next to your legs. ]

[She is worried that Yuko Moritani will disturb you and make you unhappy. She asks you if you want to warn Yuko Moritani.]

[Her words make you feel completely relieved. You touch her hair and tell her that you will solve the problem. 】

[The next night, Yuko Moritani was taken to Misaki Bay by some kind people, who helped her take a cold bath. She fled Misaki overnight and fled to the countryside. ]

[The disappearance of Yuko did not cause waves in Jing's heart. She had long been accustomed to the days when her mother was not around. The days when Yuko appeared were the exception. 】

[Her career has advanced by leaps and bounds, and she soon became the leader of a branch company. The only drawback is that the branch office is a bit far away from you.]

[This promotion is not your suggestion. You don’t care about the company’s affairs. You are also wondering why your daughter was promoted so quickly.]

【This is the credit of Shiori Ichinose.】

[Jing is busy with work. As Jing’s best friend, Shizhi will take care of you on behalf of a good friend. It’s said to be taking care of you, but in fact, it’s just bringing tea and water at most. 】

[Shiori is not a caring person. When she is with you, she always tries to find ways for you to help her with her work. She has taken over some of the affairs of the Ichinose family from her mother. 】

[She in this world line is different from before. You seem to have changed her unintentionally. You guess the problem lies with Mrs. Ichinose. 】

[Mrs. Ichinose has reduced the number of times she sees you and gives more time to her daughter. The relationship between you and Shiori is getting deeper and deeper. 】

[Three years later, Jing successfully became the manager in charge of an important department of the head office, stepped into the senior management of the company, and returned to you.]

【In the past three years, you and Shiori have become accustomed to each other.】

[You are married, and the one who changed his surname is Ichinose Shiori.]

[Jing attended your wedding, she was a bridesmaid for Shiori, and she looked at you with complicated eyes.]

"...?"

Not to mention Guan Yuejing in The Sims, Yuki Minami in real life called such a good guy in her heart when she saw such a plot.

He never expected that his and Shiori's first wedding would be in Guan Yuejing's simulation.

[Your married life was very harmonious. After giving birth to your daughter Akino, Shiori focused more on politics and she participated in the election. 】

[She has a busy work schedule, but fortunately you still have Shizu and Mrs. Ichinose to accompany you. 】

【You lived a happy life.】

[After Mrs. Ichinose, Shiori and Shizu passed away one after another, you also closed your eyes.]

[When you open your eyes again, you return to the original timeline, to a world where Yuko Moritani died and Kanyue Shizu was identified as the murderer.]

[Tomorrow is the final trial. Can Guan Yuejing be acquitted? 】

[The quiet night outside the small window of the detention center brought a dream to Guan Yuejing. She dreamed that she was back when she was a child. She dreamed that after her father passed away, her mother remarried and she had a new father. ]

【She looked down at her life in the dream.】

[She suddenly realized herself. She wanted happiness, love and care, which she could have gotten from elsewhere, but she was still a little stubborn and rigid.]

[She determined that this happiness and love and care must be harvested from her mother. She had harvested it from her mother when she was a child. She has path dependence.]

[As an adult, she gradually understood that what she wanted could not be obtained from her mother, who had been domesticated by gambling, but she was withdrawn and her mother was the only one left after her maternal grandparents died.]

[She noticed the harm Yuko Moritani had done to her, and she felt painful, but she couldn't quit. She was tortured by this contradictory situation.]

[She thought about that day when her mother secretly broke into her rented house and looked for valuables in her room.]

[She no longer does micro-business, there is no backlog of goods in the room, and her mother can’t find suitable things to sell, so she angrily slaps her awake from her sleep and begs her for money.]

[She didn’t agree, so my mother picked up the fruit knife. 】

[She previously thought that she had killed her mother.]

【She is still confused.】

[The moonlight outside the window is hazy, the light is shrouded in darkness, and the night is getting darker.]

[I don’t know when, Guan Yuejing closed her eyes and opened them again. The night fog dissipated, and the morning sun illuminated the world goldenly. 】

[She stared at the dazzling morning sun for a while and thought of you. She looked forward to the trial in the afternoon. It had nothing to do with her mother. She just thought that you would definitely appear in court. 】

[You did appear in court.]

[Guan Yuejing looks at you and then at the wall of the court. All the evidence is against her. She is about to be sentenced to a heavy sentence. 】

[You stare at her, you have spent your life with her, and you believe that she did not do this. You hope that she can get rid of her obsession with her mother, and hope that she can forgive herself. 】

[Her eyes met yours only once. The next moment, her face quickly moved away, and your heart sank. 】

[Think about it, she doesn’t dare to look at you directly because she wants to make a decision that will make you feel sorry for you, but she is still restrained by Yuko Moritani.]

[In Guan Yuejing's mind at the moment, there is no figure of Yuko Moritani. She is thinking of you, thinking that you are exactly the same as the man in her dream. 】

[The dream is very real, and the emotions coming from it are very strong. She wants to be close to you, wants to lie on your chest, and stay by your side.]

[But she doesn’t know what you will think. She is worried that you will reject her. She thinks she is the only one who has dreamed. 】

[She was distracted. The final sentence was about to come. She finally thought about the current situation and what she was facing. 】

[The happiness of the dream could not dispel the depression of her life through the darkness of the night. She thought it would be good to enter prison. What was more terrifying than the suffering was the illusion of happiness. She might not be able to kill the suffering, but she could kill the illusion. 】

[The presiding judge is already making her final statement. Her heart is calm. She turns to look at you, wanting to engrave your image in her eyes. 】

【At this time, she saw Shiori Ichinose next to you.】

[Ichinose Shiori has always been here, but before that, her attention was all on you. 】

[The moment she noticed Ichinose Shiori, the moment she saw you and Ichinose Shiori talking intimately and quietly, a jealousy spewed in her heart, and her unwillingness drove her to rebel against her former self.]

[She interrupted the presiding judge and said she had a piece of evidence.]

[There was a surveillance camera at her home. After the incident, she removed the surveillance camera and buried it in the park behind the rental house.]
