They didn't take any measures at the time, and if nothing unexpected happened, they would have won the prize the next day.

The date was too coincidental, and Watanabe Toru felt that this child was a gift from the "God" to him...

And Mr. Watanabe also understood that the agreement he had made with classmate Sakuraba tonight, the original plan to jump into the river together to "commit suicide" and end their respective miserable lives, had completely gone down the drain and no longer existed!

When Kiko was pregnant, it was a dangerous and unstable period in the early stages of pregnancy, and any carelessness would cause mood swings for the pregnant woman.

If Watanabe ignored Kiko at this time and wanted to die... he believed that Kiko would never be able to bear the reality of her husband's suicide. She would definitely give her body the most painful blow due to psychological collapse, and there was a 99% chance that both the body and the life would be lost!

Just thinking of this, Watanabe Toru felt cold all over, and completely extinguished all thoughts that he shouldn't have had.

As for the girl who might still be waiting for him at the railing beside the bridge, Watanabe Toru could only say sorry to her in his heart for the time being...

He has neither the time nor the opportunity, nor the energy to contact her now. He can only hope that she will be lucky and not be affected by him.

When choosing between Shimizu Noriko and Sakuraba Miki, Watanabe Tetsuya's choice is self-evident...

Looking at Noriko coming to his side, Watanabe showed a genuine smile of joy on his face. Before he turned the page to look at the second page of the report in his hand, he had already put it on the table.

Watanabe naturally put one hand around Kiko's waist and the other hand on Kiko's lower abdomen. He seemed to feel the breath and heartbeat of a new world. That was his and Kiko's child.

"Stop standing there, let's go sit on the sofa for a while?"

"It's not a good idea to sit right after eating. The doctor said it's best to walk around after a meal. You should also move around regularly. You can't just lie down or sit still."

"Yes! That's right... I'm really getting old and confused."

Holding Kiko's waist and holding her hand as if he was holding a rare treasure, Watanabe followed Kiko's rhythm and walked slowly back and forth with her in the living room and dining room.

Noriko was so amused by Watanabe's gentle and caring manner that she said in a delicate tone, "You don't have to be so cautious..."

"How can that be possible? Kiko now...if possible, I hope to be with you all the time, otherwise I really won't be at ease..."

Watanabe loosened his grip a little and held Noriko's small, soft hand tightly, without causing her any pain.

What he said at this moment were his most sincere thoughts.

"…Work is more important." Jiko smiled faintly, with a hint of far-fetchedness in her smile.

Watanabe did not ignore it. He took a bigger step and gave Noriko some room to buffer and stopped her body.

He asked her with a puzzled look on his face, "What's wrong? I can tell something's wrong with Keiko's expression."

It was no surprise that he noticed the change in her expression, and Jiko had no need to hide it, so she immediately poured out all her grievances and anxieties.

"Toruya-kun...are you not happy at all about my pregnancy?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the grievance in Watanabe Noriko's heart was infinitely magnified, her eyes became moist, and strings of small pearls were about to drip out.

She was filled with joy and excitement, but she kept the news of her pregnancy to herself, just to give it to Tetsuya-kun as a birthday present tonight.

What kind of cute expression will Tetsuya-kun make? And what kind of reaction will he make?

Over the past week, Jiko had been fantasizing about this moment tonight all the time.

Will he get so excited that he jumps up and wants to pick her up and spin around in circles, but then be rejected by himself? This action is very dangerous.

Or they would simply disregard their image and lose their usual calmness, punch the air with their fists, lower their center of gravity and roar.

Or he would immediately pull out his phone, snap a few photos, and then upload them to his social media account to share his latest updates, captioning, "On my 25th birthday, I received the best gift from my new wife. I'm going to be a father!"...

Noriko Shimizu spent a lot of energy and time preparing for this moment tonight, and even had countless endless fantasies.

Noriko imagined that Tetsuya-kun's performance would definitely be more joyful than she imagined, and it would be one of the most unforgettable special days in his life.

But what happened in reality surprised her. The man just stood there in a daze, holding the report in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

Why would her Tetsuya-kun... behave like this?

How could this not make Noriko Watanabe feel uneasy and aggrieved?

When faced with Noriko's question, Watanabe subconsciously let out a long "Ah!?"

Then he thought that his reaction was indeed a bit disappointing and could easily lead people to think the wrong thing. Watanabe immediately adjusted his demeanor and said seriously, coaxing Noriko with words:

"It's my fault, I didn't notice...

"Noriko, my Noriko, give me a kiss~mua~~

"I was stunned for a while when I saw the pregnancy report. Then I thought about it, it had been so many days, but I didn't notice anything unusual about Kiko. As a lover and a newlywed husband...

"I am so terrible and so unqualified!"

"Don't say that about yourself! Tetsuya-kun is the best in my heart!"

Hearing the man's self-blame, Noriko hugged him distressedly and interrupted Watanabe's words.

"Then Jizi, don't let your imagination run wild. Even if you really can't help it, if you feel wronged or uncomfortable, you must tell me immediately, okay?"

Noriko leaned her head against Watanabe's solid chest, feeling the man's strong heartbeat. She could smell the lingering moisture from the white lining. Thinking that it had rained almost the entire day, she didn't think much about it and just kept acting like a spoiled child:

"Okay, I always tell Tetsuya-kun when I have something to say.

"But I don't know why I think so much. Maybe it's because I'm pregnant that I tend to worry too much?"

"It's like this, pregnant women tend to overthink... and after Jiko got pregnant, I always felt that she became silly, cute, and often acted like a spoiled child."

"Don't say that to me!" Kiko yelled at Watanabe and butted him with her forehead.

"Enough of that, let's walk for a while." Watanabe automatically and skillfully touched Noriko's waist. Maybe because she had just become pregnant not long ago, the woman's waist was still as slender and soft as ever.

After walking three or five more times, when they were about to stop, Noriko remembered the report she had given to Watanabe and said:

"There is another report just now, Tetsuya-kun should go and take a look~"

Watanabe thought it was related to the pregnancy check-up. It concerned the health of Kiko and the baby in her belly, and Watanabe could not afford to neglect it. He walked to the dining table in two steps, picked up the book and turned the page to read.

Then he controlled Watanabe Toru and held him in place, unable to move.

Because that is not related to pregnancy test, but the report of paternity test.

It is clearly stated above that Toru Watanabe and the baby in Noriko Watanabe's belly are undoubtedly biological father and son.

Looking at the paternity test certificate and report, Tetsuya Watanabe felt mixed emotions.

How to say it, thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: a woman who can take the initiative to do a paternity test really gets a lot of extra points!

No, no, no, this should be a basic item for a good woman, not a bonus item.

This parallel world is more developed in biomedicine than the previous life. Paternity testing can be done in the early stages of pregnancy by simply drawing blood from the mother's vein. The [Tsukimisato Foundation] has done considerable research and achievements in this area.

This is actually inseparable from the flapping of Watanabe Tetsuya's little butterfly wings. It is precisely because professionals from the [Tsukimi Foundation] conducted research on some of his body tissues ten years ago that several branches of biological science and technology have made significant breakthroughs...

"Why do you still do this kind of appraisal?"

"It just so happens that there is a discount after the pregnancy test, and a free paternity test. I think it's a good deal!"

"Oh, I like you, Jizi... I'll wash you up, and then we'll go to bed."

"Okay, but it's past eight o'clock now. Do you still have time, Tetsuya-kun? You should go out on a business trip, right? Otherwise, it will be too late..." Kiko glanced at the time. She is a model of a good wife and mother.

"My new wife is pregnant now, how can I leave Noriko's side now?

“I will report this to the director and senior colleagues, and ask them to find other colleagues to go on the business trip.

"I think they can understand me. After all, they will probably have children in the future..."

After her newlywed husband Tetsuya said this, Kiko stopped trying to persuade him and agreed calmly and contentedly.

Noriko also wanted Watanabe to be with her. When he was on a business trip to another place for work, it would take at least three to five days, and at most half a month.

Noriko Watanabe couldn't bear to see Toru Watanabe leave her for so long, and she was also afraid of the days when he was not by her side...

They snuggled together and went to wash hand in hand.

Near Yotsuya station, under the street lights on the wide roadside late at night, Sakuraba Mihime, wearing a white Rojita dress, stood on the bridge, staring at the sparkling and not calm surface of the river.

The evening breeze brings coolness after the wind and rain, and a hint of chill in this hot summer.

Princess Sakuraba just stood straight in front of the crossbar on the bridge. The evening breeze blew her long hair and skirt, but she didn't move.

The personal maid behind her took a step forward and said softly, "It's already nine o'clock, Fourth Miss..."

"...wait a little longer, wait another half an hour...no, wait another hour, if he still..."

Sakuraba Miki's words were blown away by the wind, and time passed so quickly that an hour had passed in the blink of an eye. After the maid behind her reminded her again, she finally accepted the fact that Watanabe Toru was also unable to keep the appointment on time.

Looking up at the bright moonlight that appeared through the opening of the dark clouds in the sky, Sakuraba Miki's words blew away the dark clouds again:

"Iori...

"Sure enough...he didn't come..."

Princess Sakuraba felt as if it was raining again, and her face was sticky and wet.

What else could it be besides rain? It can only be rain...

It rained all day today, why did it rain again tonight? She hated the unpredictable weather in Tokyo.

Chapter 279: Saotome enters at night, and the stars are summoned from afar

On the river bank under the moonlight, Princess Sakuraba stood on the bridge and enjoyed the cool breeze all night.

After the agreed time of 9pm, Sakuraba waited and stood for another hour. After confirming that Watanabe teacher really did not show up and did not miss her because he did not see her, the girl got into the car because of physical discomfort and fatigue, despite the constant persuasion of her personal maid Iori.

The lighting in the car is soft and bright, the air-conditioning is cool, and leaning on the leather soft chair is like sinking into a huge sponge. It also has a built-in massage function, as if it can quickly pull people into sleep. You can imagine how great a temptation it is for Sakuraba Kimi, who has been standing in the cool breeze for nearly two hours.

But she used her own willpower to overcome her sleepiness, pursed her lips and bit her tongue secretly to make herself awake. When the maid Iori ordered the female driver to drive back to the residence, Sakuraba Miki refused.

"Miss Fourth...it's already past ten in the evening, very late."

Kobayashi Iori didn't dare to say anything harsh like "he won't come back" or "just give up on it", as this would undoubtedly be like stabbing her fourth young lady in the heart.

Looking at the stubborn girl, Kobayashi Iori's eyes were full of heartache, and his disgust and hatred towards Watanabe Tetsuya soared.

Since you have agreed and made an agreement, you should abide by it, that bastard! Do you know how determined her fourth daughter is! Do you know how much psychological trauma this will bring to the fourth daughter!

If she were to see that man, Tetsuya Watanabe, again, Kobayashi Iori would definitely punch him in the face!

In response to the maid Iori's advice, Sakuraba Miki didn't say a word, but just shook her head.

That's right, until now, Sakuraba still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that Watanabe teacher had something urgent to do or was tied up and couldn't come over for the time being...

Give him some time, and give him some more time...

A lonely luxury car was parked on the side of the road. Cars were speeding by, and when passing by, they would always slow down and pay attention to Sakuraba Princess's car until the traffic became increasingly sparse.
