Seeing Konishi's mother's surprised reaction, Mogami Kazuto and Konishi Saori were both dumbfounded.

"When? How many months? Boy or girl?"

"No, it's not mom."

"twin?!"

Xiaoxi's mother let out another scream of surprise.

Saori Konishi was on the verge of collapse and lost her usual poise: "Why don't you just say quadruplets!"

"Eh?!"

Xiaoxi's mother was stunned for a moment, then asked softly with expectant eyes: "But...is it okay? Isn't it too extravagant?"

"…………"

Mogami Kazuto could no longer watch the skit between mother and daughter, and sighed in his heart.

He understood Saori Xiaonishi's feelings. He had already experienced this kind of thing that would definitely hurt his parents once he said it.

These are shackles that are bound to the body and will become increasingly heavier as time goes by.

If you don’t say it today, it will be harder to say it tomorrow, day after day.

Now Saori Konishi can no longer remove the shackles alone.

So.

Mogami Kazuto helped her.

Breathing gently, maybe the air in his parents' house can bring him a sense of security. At this moment, Mogami Kazuto felt surprisingly calm inside.

It's like saying insignificant words, plain and indifferent.

"Actually, Saori and I have already registered for divorce."

"If you have quadruplets, Kazuo will have a heavy burden. Naming is also a problem. Mom, I prefer to choose one word each for southeast, northwest, or spring, summer, autumn, and winter..."

Xiaoxi's mother, who was happily imagining her children and grandchildren, suddenly stopped in her joyful voice.

Along with Xiao Xi's father and former father-in-law and mother-in-law, they were all stunned by the unknown.

Saori Konishi glanced at Mogami Kazuto beside her with a complicated look.

This was what she should have said. Mogami Kazuto had already communicated frankly with his parents, but she could not overcome this hurdle.

If it hadn't been for the incident of her parents going to Beijing, she might have kept it a secret for even longer.

It caused him a lot of trouble again.

Gingya bit lightly, and Xiaonishi Saori's hands placed under the table were clenched into fists.

He has done enough, and she will do the rest.

No longer avoiding her parents' gaze, no longer hiding behind him, even if the confusion and dullness in her parents' eyes were clearly visible, she had to speak out in person.

"Dad, Mom, we divorced a year ago. I'm sorry that I have been hiding this from you until now."

Saori Konishi stood up, walked aside, knelt down on her knees, and with a soft knocking sound, pressed her forehead against the floor.

"My daughter does not ask for your forgiveness, but... I initiated the divorce. Please don't blame Kazuto. It's all...

My bad."

The originally cheerful atmosphere in the living room stopped flowing at this moment and turned into silent silence.

Xiaoxi's parents looked at their daughter, and finally realized something was wrong.

My daughter takes things so seriously, and no one would joke about such things, which means that what they said is true.

Xiaonishi's mother found it difficult to accept, and turned to look at Mogami Kazuto.

"Kazuto, is what Saori said true?"

The emotion shown in her eyes was so familiar.

He had seen these eyes a year ago.

However, Saori Konishi’s statement is inconsistent with the facts.

He initiated the divorce, and Kazuto Mogami knew that this was Saori Konishi's stubbornness, and it was her only way to atone for her sins until now.

"Well, it's all true."

Mogami Kazuto could not refute her stubbornness.

The moment he nodded, Xiaoxi's mother suddenly seemed to have lost something. All her energy was drained, and she sat blankly on the chair, speechless.

See, some words are destined to hurt others, so the cruel truth is often difficult to say.

But at the end of the concealment, the truth will eventually be revealed in a more naked way.

Everyone understands this truth, but no one can do it easily.

And the source of all this started with Saori Konishi's ridiculous proposal, with Kazuto Mogami's decisive response, and with Chen He's indecision.

A twisted relationship can only lead to a twisted ending.

It brings nothing but hurt and pain.

What happened next was just as Mogami and Kazuto expected. Xiaoxi's parents were furious and blurted out more and more hurtful words.

Saori Konishi accepted all this in silence, and had no other choice but to lower her head deeper.

"Saori, can you buy some beer for me?"

The one who spoke was Mogami Kazuto.

Saori Konishi didn't dare to move or respond.

Rather than telling it to Saori Konishi, it would be better to tell it to her parents.

Xiaoxi's mother was still angry and said nothing, while her father helped Xiaoxi Saori up and urged her to leave with a complex expression.

Everyone present knew that Mogami Kazuto had something to say.

And he didn't want her to hear it.

Finally, Saori Konishi stood up silently, glanced at Mogami Kazuto, and left.

When there were only three of them left in the living room, Mogami Kazuto's gentle voice echoed in the room.

"Uncle, aunt, is my craft still to your liking?"

"Saori taught me these. Before marrying her, I couldn't even fry an egg well."

He told the truth, but not always.

"Saori is a good girl. She has hidden it for so long because she just doesn't want to see you sad."

"I have never heard of someone getting divorced within a year without notifying her parents. I think she doesn't even have us in her heart."

The more you lose your cool, the more you will inadvertently say hurtful words.

Mogami Kazuto understood this truth, and he had no intention of defending Saori Konishi.

"You must know better than me what kind of girl Saori is. She does have many shortcomings, but she is by no means an unfilial child."

Xiaoxi's mother wanted to say something, but her husband pulled her sleeves and stopped her with his eyes, so she gave up.

"Also, actually, Saori lied to you just now."

Mogami Kazuto is still the same as before, unwilling to see the misfortunes of others.

Therefore, he will take over all responsibilities and do insignificant things for her within his ability.

And she doesn't need to know.

"I was the one who really filed for divorce."

Seeing the eyes of Xiaoxi's parents gradually becoming confused, Mogami Kazuto decided to tell a lie, a lie that could not be verified by others.

Maybe this lie will be exposed after many years, but by then, they won't care anymore.

"Auntie, you should really want to have a grandson. For a girl as beautiful as Saori, her future children will definitely be very cute."

"Of course, who's parent doesn't look forward to having a grandson earlier?"

Mogami Kazuto pretended to smile bitterly, he thought he was acting very well now.

"I know and I understand, but what I want to say is that as long as Saori is with me, unless she cheats, you will never be able to wait until that time.

Sorry, I am also a man with self-esteem, so you should be able to understand it to this extent."

Xiaonishi's parents looked at Mogami Kazuto and were speechless.

In order to make the divorce reasonable and to prevent the family relationship between them from falling apart, in this absurd story, someone needs to make sacrifices after all.

Then, you can only do it yourself.
