She has already lost completely. Chika Tachibana has rejected her. From now on, she should not watch any good shows from them, nor gossip about them anymore.

They are friends.

Just like your relationship with Chika Tachibana, close yet ordinary.

"Really, I've grown a lot."

When they met again, Guanyue Zhenling was no longer the clumsy girl. She knew how to pick up things, but also knew how to let go.

Since the person you like has already found happiness, even if the person who gave her happiness was not you, you should protect her, put aside all your resentment, swallow it down and hide it in your heart, and offer her blessings with a smile.

After ten years of solitude, Guanyue Zhenling now truly understands how to love.

Truly, mind-blowing.

Truly, heartbreaking.

I would rather Kanzuki Marin didn't become so mature. With a tight grip on her heart, Chika Tachibana sighed softly.

This world line must be tailored. Her Shinrin should be tsundere and clumsy, always have a pure heart, and go through life easily and carefree. Chika Tachibana would never want her to hurt herself to fulfill her wish.

However, even if in reality, Marin was not forced to study abroad, if she did not choose Marin in the end, but chose her senior, Aino, Marin might still do such a thing.

In the end, it's still difficult to have both, and I still have to watch Marin hurt herself.

Rather, from the moment that Marin knew she was out, her happiness will always hurt Marin.

How can I avoid hurting Zhenling's heart?

After thinking about it over and over again, Chika Tachibana still couldn't come up with a conclusion.

After all, she only has one person and can only choose that one.

In the midst of distress, Hanasaka Yui also put aside her distress, and the text on the simulator finally started scrolling again.

This time, this should be the end, right?

Or, will there be more ups and downs in life?

[The once reckless Kanzuki Manrin is still "reckless" now, but it is a deliberate recklessness, a recklessness that is self-torturing.

Confessing in public and then being rejected.

As you might expect, after this incident, Kanzuki Marin became the talk of the town and the subject of jokes, but because of this, Aino was completely relieved, and people no longer doubted Tachibana Chika's loyalty and stopped gossiping about their frequent interactions.

Did things end smoothly?

The incident of Mitsuki Marin's return to the country, which should have caused a great chaos, was thus settled. Apart from the question asked by Aihua, "Is Marin-sister the same as Yui-sister?" which echoed in your ears from time to time, your life went on peacefully.

In the blink of an eye, it's already June.

Aino was admitted to the hospital and was about to give birth. The second child of Chika Tachibana and Aino Akizuki, the couple, was about to be born.

Upon hearing the news, you rushed to the hospital. By then, Kanzuki Manrin and Matsuo-senpai were already chatting and laughing with Chika.

"Sister Yui!"

Seeing you coming, Xiao Aiyi immediately broke free from Guanyue Zhenling's arms and rushed towards you with laughter.

Ever since Kanzuki Malin returned to her country, she has often visited Chika Tachibana's home. She dotes on Aihua, Chika Tachibana's "self-made" daughter, and takes her on outings and showers her with all kinds of rare gifts, waiting for Aihua to say, "If you don't abandon me, I'm willing to take you as my adoptive mother!"

But how could this compare to the five years of friendship between Aihua and you? Compared to the generous spender and obedient Kanzuki Manrin, Aihua still prefers you, Yui's "stepmother" who has been with her for a long time.

Finally, my love for this girl was not in vain.

Hold your beloved flower in your arms and see her affectionate look, which is extremely enjoyable for you.

For this, you received a cold stare from Kanzuki Marin, but you smiled and stuck out your tongue with a smug look on your face, then joined them and talked with them, reminiscing about old times in school. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

"Ms. Tachibana, you are here. Regarding your wife..."

After chatting with you for a long time, the relevant examinations for Aino, who is about to give birth, were finally completed. Judging from the doctor's appearance, the examination results seem to be good.

Chika Tachibana seemed very familiar with the female doctor named Rio Sugimoto. After hearing the examination results, she immediately took her hand and introduced her to him.

"This is Dr. Sugimoto, a specialist in [Obstetrics and Gynecology]. When Aihua was born, it was Dr. Sugimoto who helped deliver her. Now it's Aino's turn, and Dr. Sugimoto is also taking care of her. What a wonderful fate."

"Aihua, this is the benefactor of your life, thank her quickly."

"How adorable! The little baby has grown into such a pretty girl now. She'll probably become a beauty like your mother in the future. Do you prefer boys or girls?"

"She's still a child. Let her think about this kind of thing later."

"Maybe I'll still be here by then, and maybe I'll even be there to help deliver little Aihua's baby."

"What one-stop service?"

“Hahahaha…”

"Come to think of it, Dr. Sugimoto also gave birth to her own child six months ago, right?"

"Yes, I was always busy with work, and I didn't give birth until I was over 30. But as an obstetrician and gynecologist, I finally understood the joy of being a mother. The moment my little finger was held by my daughter's tiny hand, I understood that a mother is truly willing to give everything for her child."

"It is said that Dr. Sugimoto had a difficult delivery at the time."

"Well, girl-girl relationships are still a new technology, and everything is still not perfect, so accidents are inevitable.

Although he was clearly a doctor and clearly understood the truth, he was unwilling to give up on his daughter at that time. He desperately begged the surgeon on the operating table and finally saved his daughter's life from the brink of death.

"Fortunately, mother and daughter are safe."

"Yes, it's a blessing."

Echoing, you said so.

However......

Having experienced a mother's love for her child, having truly begged the attending physician on the delivery table and received a favorable outcome, is it truly a blessing to have such a female physician preside over the delivery?]

"The situation is not good. Miss Aino is too weak. Being unable to give birth for such a long time is extremely dangerous. Miss Tachibana, please be prepared for the worst."

After passing the test herself, Chika Tachibana completely trusted the emerging technology of [girl giving birth to girl]. She herself was in good health, so there was no need to worry, but she could rest at home for a long time. How could Aino, who was already weak and petite, be safe?

After anxiously waiting outside the delivery room, what you received was such devastating news like a bolt from the blue.

"We must ensure that Aino is safe, as long as she is safe!"

In response to this, Chika Tachibana naturally made a decision immediately.

But how could a mother's beloved daughter explain it clearly in one word at this moment?

"sorry Sorry......"

Finally, the operating room was opened, and the only person who walked out was the distraught female doctor Sugimoto, whose eyes were blank and she kept repeating this sentence, and the second child of Aino and Chika, Tachibana Marika, who was held in the arms of the nurse.

On the operating table, just like Dr. Sugimoto, Aino kept begging, and the two mothers resonated with each other, hoping for the best outcome, but ultimately suffered the worst consequences.

Ai No is gone, leaving only Tachibana Marika. 】

Chapter 113: If Yui

Aina is not dead, she just fell asleep.

He held Aino tightly in his arms. Her sleeping face was still so peaceful, stretched and relaxed, which made Chikako Tachibana feel much better.

That's just something that will happen in the future, not reality yet.

I received love from her, and finally I had hope for life again, and finally I believed in the beauty of family again.

After ten months of pregnancy, she dreamed of giving birth to the fruit of their love. Lying on the hospital bed, Ai Nai desperately pleaded: "Please make one last effort to save my precious daughter."

This sincere motherly love resonated with Dr. Sugimoto, the surgeon who had recently undergone a difficult labor. At that moment, the radiance of maternal love overcame her commitment to her duties as a doctor. The two worked together, but the worst possible outcome occurred...

"Idiot, from now on I will be the only one who can be reborn!"

Chika Tachibana bared her teeth viciously at the sleeping Aino.

After seeing such a horrible future, no matter what she said in the future, even if she had to be pinned down by Aino for the rest of her life, she would never let Aino get pregnant again!

She's the one who handles even the most dangerous things like childbirth! If Aino wants it, she can give birth to a football team, give birth to millions and millions of oranges... There's no problem with Wanlihuadu!

But I'm determined, I'm determined not to let Aino's belly get bigger again!

Hot air blew out of her nose angrily, and then her mood calmed down. Chika Tachibana was full of gratitude to Hanasaka Yui again.

Thanks to her love simulation, otherwise, if time moved to the future, she might really lose her beloved Aino because of this kind of thing.

At that time, she couldn't imagine how sad she would be.

After all, it was only now, and her relationship with her cousin was not actually that deep. When she saw the simulated text of Aino's death, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. What about the future, the "she" who lived with Aino day and night, married for several years and had a lovely daughter would probably be even more heartbroken.

I hope I can hold on in the simulation.

She should be able to hold on.

Even if Aino is not here, for the sake of little Aihua and little Wanlihua, she should cheer up and protect Aino's two daughters who are left in this world, watch them grow up, see them off, and take care of them to find happiness. Only then can she give an explanation to Aino and face Aino with dignity.

There were many kinds of thoughts in his mind, but mostly he was glad. As a result, his favorability towards Hanasaka Yui increased, and the simulated text scrolled again.

This time, time jumped three months.

Ai No died during childbirth, leaving behind little Wanlihua, who was born with deficiencies, weak and constantly struggling on the line between life and death. This tragic news completely disrupted Tachibana Chika's life and pushed her into the abyss.

But, Chika Tachibana is Chika Tachibana after all.

A mother is strong. Chika Tachibana did not delve into the death of Aino caused by the arbitrary decision of female doctor Sugimoto on the operating table. She also entrusted you with more help with Aino's funeral.

She stayed in the hospital day and night for more than three months, and finally took little Wanlihua, whose physical condition was completely stable, home.

After this, Chika Tachibana fell completely ill and finally showed signs of grief.

The situation where she took her anger out on little Marika because of Aino's death did not happen. It would be better to say that such a thing would never happen to Chika Tachibana. She would only suppress all the grief in her heart, and then give more love, all the love she had for Aino, to Aino's two remaining children, Aika Tachibana and Marika Tachibana.

This situation certainly makes you friends feel relieved, but worries still remain.

The first is Chika Tachibana's future.

She dreamed of embarking on the road of music and stepping onto the highest stage, but more than ten years have passed and although Chika Tachibana seemed to have made a leap forward, she was actually just losing ground.

The disbandment of the light music club completely cut off her path to becoming a band member. Now, with the departure of Aino, she has completely cut off her own musical path.

The scene brought sadness to her heart, and the objects reminded her of the person she loved. Music connected this couple together, but now that the strings were broken, even touching them again would be torture for Chika Tachibana.

The account was inactive for four months, and when it resumed, only Chika Tachibana appeared, and only her permanent suspension of updates was announced.

[Chika and Akizuki], the replacement of the musical dream that Chika Tachibana found as she moved from her girlhood to adulthood, has now completely faded and come to an end.

Ai Nono is gone, and from then on music has nothing to do with Chika Tachibana.

She only has two daughters left in her life.】

"I need you to take good care of Chika, Yui."

In the blink of an eye, more than three months have passed.

Everything in the world is moving forward and there is no stagnation. Your life, which was in chaos due to the death of your lover, is completely back on track. Senior Song Sheng is going to go abroad for activities again. Before leaving, she gave you special instructions. There seems to be deep meaning in her words, as if she is encouraging you to do something.

You are aware of this but pretend not to notice.

After seeing your senior off on the plane, you asked for leave from the editorial department.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Director."

Your father, Hanasaka Ryogo, is already a famous cartoonist and the mainstay of the magazine. You can do such a small thing as asking for leave at will, but in the end you are relying on the support of your elders. So even though the director, who had given you a heads-up, approved your leave without saying much, you still felt a flush on your face.

But even if you feel ashamed, you still have to do it.

Illness comes like a mountain falling and goes like a thread being pulled out. The passing of Aino and the stable condition of her daughter Marika Tachibana really drained the last bit of strength out of Tachibana Chika's body. It has been three months since she became seriously ill, and her health is still fluctuating, and she has to stay in bed from time to time to rest.

In this situation, even though Guanyue Zhenling had hired a professional wet nurse and a nanny to help take care of her and her daughter's daily life, you were still worried and had to visit and help them every now and then.

Or maybe, it's not just about helping, what else are you worried about?

"Masuzu? You're leaving now."

It was only ten o'clock in the morning, but Kanzuki Marin was already ready to leave the Tachibana family.

I'm a little surprised you asked this.

"The old bastard is dying, and I'm busy fighting for the inheritance, so I can't take care of myself."

"..."

She was forced to leave because of her father's arbitrary decision. Their relationship was not very good to begin with, and this incident made it even worse.

This time, Guanyue Zhenling came back from abroad to fight for the Guanyue family's property and seize power from her stepmother's branch.
