My new wife discovered my past

Seeing her boyfriend Watanabe Tetsuya still standing in the box, looking at her curiously, Matsumoto Hitomi's eyes lit up:

"Tetsuya-kun~ come sit down! You've been standing for so long and you're walking over here, don't you feel tired at all, dear?"

Matsumoto Hitomi regretted why she just lay down on the sofa without caring about anything. This was clearly a good opportunity to rely on Watanabe Tetsuya...

It seems that she really regards herself as the girlfriend who has been dating Watanabe Tetsuya for a long time. In her heart, she probably pushed Shimizu Noriko off the table and became Watanabe Tetsuya's fiancée and newlywed wife.

"Tired? What's tiring about this?"

"That's true... Based on the physical fitness of Tetsuya-kun that I've experienced, this is nothing." Matsumoto Hitomi said jokingly, then struggled to get up, took two steps at a time, and jumped into Watanabe Tetsuya's arms.

Watanabe Toru, who was sitting on a cushioned blanket, was not annoyed by the sudden attack. It was just the normal process and behavior of a date. He just didn't want to have any close contact with women or Matsumoto Hitomi at the moment.

It’s really hot!

Pushing her aside, Watanabe stood up and looked around.

Matsumoto Hitomi pouted, asking for trouble. She didn't pester Watanabe Tetsuya, but asked out of curiosity: "Has Tetsuya never been to a comic cafe before?"

Watanabe shook his head. "I've been here before, and I've been there quite a few times with Noriko... I've never seen a comic book cafe with a box this big. What's the difference between this and a love hotel or a private cinema?"

“That’s why I like this store so much and became a member of it…

"And the price is very expensive. A private room costs 1,000 yen per hour."

"The environment is worthy of the price, but the service is not good enough yet." Watanabe commented.

"The price of the private room is secondary. This restaurant doesn't make money from this. The main reason is other added value..."

Matsumoto Hitomi didn't finish her words, and there was an inexplicable pause, which naturally made Watanabe Toru think wrongly: "So the receptionists, waiters and waitresses are all young and beautiful girls in order to provide special services?"

After Watanabe finished speaking, he thought about it again and felt that he might be wrong.

If there really was a special service, given his understanding of Hitomi Matsumoto, how could he possibly patronize this store again.

"Toru-kun... I can't believe you would think this way. If this were true, I wouldn't have come here a long time ago~!" Matsumoto Hitomi explained:

“The added value mainly refers to the drinks, desserts, and dishes in the store~! Although they all taste pretty good, the prices are generally higher than the average price outside, about 30% more expensive...

"After all, it's a beautiful and sexy maid who personally serves you the food, and it's much cheaper than a maid shop. Not to mention those otakus, even I can't help but be moved~"

Watanabe Toru nodded and stopped talking. In his eyes, attracting attention and selling soft and erotic things were not much different from direct transactions.

He inspected the comics on the bookshelf in the box and looked around in disbelief: "Why are all of them otome romance comics? Aren't there any other types?"

"Because this box is a special feature of otome comics. Even someone as smart as Tetsuya hasn't discovered it yet?" Hitomi Matsumoto stuck out her tongue and said playfully. She probably thought she was extremely cute in her heart.

"I just didn't expect that the private rooms in comic cafes would start to be categorized."

"So what do you want to see, dear? You can ask the waiter to bring some from other boxes~

"By the way, this comic cafe also provides R18 adult comics~~ A lot of otakus come to read them."

"That's not necessary. I'm just asking out of curiosity. I don't really want to read the comics."

"Oh...what do you want to eat? Honey, I didn't eat much this morning, so why don't you order some dessert to fill your stomach?" Matsumoto Hitomi is very thoughtful, at least she is the same to Watanabe Toru.

Watanabe Tetsuya subconsciously opened his mouth to say egg tarts, but when he realized that the person was not Noriko, he swallowed it back and just said, "Teacher Matsumoto, just take care of it yourself."

"Well...you have to order two iced lattes. For dessert, let's order some mochi, macarons, and waffles! Egg tarts and puffs are too greasy, forget it..."

After hearing what Matsumoto Hitomi said, if he were to describe it in a two-dimensional image, Watanabe Tetsuya would inevitably have two cross muscles on his forehead.

Toru Watanabe really had no idea how Matsumoto Hitomi managed to completely avoid all of his favorite desserts and instead accurately chose the ones he hated the most.

Did Sakura Kujo and Nao Yanagihara fail to find out what he likes to eat when they were doing the research? Or did Hitomi Matsumoto fail to remember Tetsuya Watanabe's likes and dislikes with her intelligence and memory?

The specific reason is no longer important. Watanabe Toru doesn't care whether Matsumoto Hitomi did it on purpose or not. As long as it is edible, it is fine. He doesn't care. It is better than what he had in the morning.

He randomly picked up a love manga for girls that had been serialized for several volumes, the title of which was "How about I lend you some sweetness in love? 99 points super sweet!" After taking the first volume, Watanabe Tetsuya sat back on the cushion and began to read it out of boredom.

Matsumoto Hitomi, who was standing by the window looking out at the scenery, was surprised and said, "The sky outside has changed color again, it's gloomy... there are so many dark clouds, and the sun is not visible... is it going to rain again? But didn't the weather forecast say that it would be sunny in the Tokyo area today?"

Watanabe Tetsuya, who was flipping through the comics, said, "The weather forecast is just like quantum particles, and it has the dual nature of wave and particle. That's what they say, right? Anyway, people who believe in the weather forecast are just as stupid as those gamblers who buy lottery tickets and believe they can win the jackpot."

"…Eh~? Darling~ why are you reading girls' comics?"

Matsumoto Hitomi discovered something interesting and threw the weather forecast and the upcoming rainy weather out of her mind. She leisurely sat down next to Watanabe Tetsuya, took his arm and wrapped it around him, apparently wanting to read comics with Watanabe Tetsuya.

Watanabe Toru would never give her such an opportunity and closed the comic book directly, which allowed Matsumoto Hitomi to see clearly which comic he was reading.

"Ah? It's 99 points, so bad!? Tetsuya-kun...how come your taste has suddenly become so bad~" Matsumoto Hitomi became so bold that she actually teased Watanabe Tetsuya.

"Just looking around."

To be honest, Watanabe thinks this manga is actually pretty good.

At least from a man's perspective, this otome manga is a very good love manga.

The most interesting setting is the characters of the male and female protagonists. The female protagonist is as usual a beautiful girl with long black hair, a gentle personality, and a strong and tough heart, while the male protagonist is also a handsome and suave young man.

If it were just these, they would be cliché settings that are everywhere, but the comic author was very imaginative and added some extra personality settings for the male protagonist that are different from the ordinary male protagonists in otome comics.

Compared to other otome comics where the male protagonists are basically 99% pure, and their first love and first experience are kept for future female protagonists, the male protagonist of " Minutes Super Sweet" has an unknown number of ex-girlfriends who he once truly loved, but eventually broke up for various reasons and could not continue to be with...

And almost all of his first times were shared by his ex-girlfriends...

Chapter 269: Learn from the book and apply it in actual combat

"How about I lend you some sweetness in love? 99 points super sweet!" was criticized as a cancer in the otome manga circle, figuratively compared to the increasingly widespread and serious syphilis in Tokyo.

The audience of otome comics is basically women who have beautiful aspirations for love, and the larger the female group, the easier it is to form fan circles, strictly restrict themselves to certain rules and regulations, and be extremely hypocritical.

"99 Points Super Sweet" is a sitting duck and is the manga with the most serious fan-hat fight among otome comics.

Similar to the most important "main course" male protagonist in traditional otome comics, the male protagonist Ken Aragaki of "99 Minutes Super Sweet" is also tall, handsome, with excellent looks, a gentle personality and respect for women. Occasionally, he will have just the right amount of domineering and dark possessiveness. He was liked by many female readers when he first appeared.

But the male protagonists of otome comics, just like the female protagonists in male-oriented works, have no "human rights". They both must maintain absolute purity!

Japanese people like to eat shit, especially men. Otherwise, the three mythical gods of Japanese light novels would not appear in representative light novels, such as Sayu Ogiwara, the "god-waiting girl", Tsukia Shirakawa, the "simple beautiful girl who doesn't know how to say no", and Tsukasa Tendou, the "hundred-man slayer".

The books in this edition are even more of a carnival feast for the Minotaur. [Pure Love] is like a leaf of duckweed sailing in the sea, which may be overturned by the raging waves at any time and sink to the bottom of the endless abyss.

The reason for this phenomenon is very simple. This group of male readers may think that having a woman, and a beautiful girl at that, is enough for him. What else does he want?

So you can often see them leaving comments in various male-oriented works, such as "realistic", "how can there be so many beautiful girls with good personalities in real life, and they are all virgins, and have never even been in a relationship", "the fantasy of a virgin man"...

They all had this idea and slept like this, so it can only be one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten. We can only hope that their future girlfriends and wives will be women with countless ex-boyfriends and have been through many battles.

As for the male protagonists in otome comics, most authors dare not portray them so directly. They often only dare to add their own personal opinions secretly, such as settings such as the girls the male protagonist had dated before.

Until the release of "How about a little sweetness from love? 99 points super sweet!"

Its author used a narrative trick, laying out one foreshadowing after another in the early stages of the relationship between the hero and the heroine. On the surface, the story was full of sweetness, but as the plot deepened, all the foreshadowing turned into preparation, giving all the readers with pounding girlish hearts a cold arrow that pierced their hearts.

Why is it that while the male protagonist has a handsome appearance, delicate skin with abundant collagen, extremely thin muscles and beautiful lines, and his every move is full of sexual tension, there is a small part of the plot that inadvertently reveals his ugly photos of being overweight in elementary and junior high school?

Besides the fact that he had a good foundation, he was once rejected and abandoned by his first love and favorite girl.

Why does the male protagonist understand girls so well, clearly understand every subtle emotion and psychology of girls, and always find the most touching point?

It's not that the male protagonist in the comics is a scumbag, on the contrary, he is always the one who is abandoned. But he was taught by his last ex-girlfriend, she was his white moonlight, they loved each other, thought they would be together forever, and then got married and had children.

But the girl died unexpectedly, leaving him alone, so she was his last ex-girlfriend.

And why...

How about love lend you a little sweetness? It is a little bit of heart-pounding pink sweetness left by the ex-girlfriends of the male protagonist Ken Aragaki for the female protagonist.

99 points, super sweet! If the full score is points, the one point deducted is because the male protagonist, Ken Aragaki, is not a pure male protagonist who is always there for the first time.

And this is the metaphor of the comic's name.

So when the latest serialized plot developed to this point, and the episodes that revealed the deliberately hidden truth were updated, public opinion was overwhelming.

All the fans who wanted to be the "heroine" and the dream girls of the hero were devastated, and the official Twitter accounts of the author and the comics company were wildly criticized.

Some female readers said that such a plot development is simply disgusting and is intended to pollute the otome comic. One of the strong and effective evidence they posted is that the author of "99 Points Super Sweet!" is a man, and this view is supported by most female fans.

The author's response was the most popular topic on the Internet recently, apart from Haruka Hoshimi's announcement of the suspension of her concert tour across the island country. Many people were eagerly waiting...

After Hitomi Matsumoto's reminder and brief popular science, Toru Watanabe searched for discussions on related events and became very interested in the upcoming plot in the comics and the reality outside the comics.

Because Toru Watanabe looked up one plot-related complaint and spoiler after another, it was like looking in the mirror.

If we start counting from the time he went up the mountain and entered the shrine at the age of seven, his experiences over the past 18 years have been beautified and described implicitly from another perspective. What is the difference between him and the protagonist of the manga "99 Minutes Super Sweet!"?

Is it Watanabe? He is looking forward to the next development, but he will not live to see tomorrow, so he will never see the sequel.

However, based on the massive condemnation on the Internet, Watanabe feels that there is a high probability that the publishing house will cancel the comic.

"Cut it in half..."

"That means there will be no follow-up..."

Watanabe looked up and closed his eyes in deep thought, never expecting that the "ending" of this comic would be so similar to his.

How similar! ?

Briefly stopping all her deliberations and calculations, at this moment, Hitomi Watanabe truly regarded herself as the lover and newlywed wife of Tetsuya Watanabe, and devoted herself to the role, to experiencing this hard-earned, pure, spiritually resonant pure love dating journey.

After seeing her boyfriend Watanabe's uncharacteristic behavior, she approached him with concern: "What's wrong, dear? Are you hungry? Do you want me to go and urge him?"

"That's not necessary." Watanabe Toru lost interest in reading the comics anymore and stood up to put them back on the shelf. "It's been ten to ten minutes since I ordered it. It will probably be delivered soon."

Watanabe was right. When he sat back down, there was a knock on the door. "Master, the coffee and dessert you ordered are here! Can you come in, Momoka?"

"Yes~ wait a moment, I'll open the door!" Watanabe Hitomi immediately ran to open the door to let the maid Momoka-chan in.

The plate she was carrying was very thick, and she was able to carry it steadily even with two cups of coffee and various desserts on it. You could tell how strong she was from the bulging and wriggling muscles on her arms.

The maid Momoka-chan also seemed to know Matsumoto Hitomi. After entering the private room, she put down the plate, knelt down to set the table, and greeted her skillfully. At the same time, she also glanced at Watanabe Tetsuya before informing her:

"Hitomi-chan really brought her boyfriend here~ I haven't seen him for two months, and he dropped a bombshell all of a sudden!

"Hitomi-chan didn't see it, just now in the kitchen, they...the two of them were singing the same tune, and I was wondering why they sounded so sour, as if they had eaten a lemon!

"Now I see... I understand!"

Watanabe Hitomi smiled and introduced her: "This is Watanabe Tetsuya. Tetsuya-kun was my colleague before, and now I am dating them."

"Tsk tsk~ It's really different when you're in love~! The sharpness in Hitomi-chan's eyes has all turned into tenderness!"

"Stop teasing me. I called you here for something."

"What? Is it...about the two of them?"
