Chapter 138: How did the favorability increase again?

"Ying..."

A soft sound came out of Sonoko's throat involuntarily.

Akaso Kaze quickly covered her mouth.

His other hand could only wrap tightly around her waist, pressing her close to him.

If this were discovered, he would really have no way to explain himself.

【Ding, Sonoko has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability is 4 stars.】

Hey.

How did the favorability increase again?

This trend is not good.

Akaso Kaze felt it.

Sonoko was leaning back forcefully.

The two of them were almost at zero distance.

The two people outside were startled by the sound.

The groom, Takasugi Toshihiko, asked worriedly: "Is someone eavesdropping outside the door?"

Matsumoto Sayuri said unhappily: "Hey, we are a legal couple, so what if someone is eavesdropping?"

Takasugi Toshihiko let go of Matsumoto Sayuri and picked up the half-drunk lemon tea nearby.

Then he complained: "Why do you always drink this kind of cheap drink?"

While secretly throwing the sodium hydroxide he had prepared and hidden in his hand, as well as an empty capsule, into the can.

"Here it comes!"

Akaso Kaze couldn't care about Sonoko, who kept bumping backward, and began to stretch out his magic claws... no, his Hand of Space.

The sodium hydroxide and the empty capsule had just entered the drink can and hadn't fallen into the liquid yet when they were taken away by the Hand of Space.

Replacing them was a sleeping pill.

Matsumoto Sayuri looked at Takasugi Toshihiko, then at the drink he had placed back on the table, and was silent for a moment.

She hesitated for a moment, then walked over as if nothing had happened, smiling and talking to Takasugi Toshihiko while picking up the lemon tea.

Her heart, which had been full of expectations for the wedding, suddenly sank.

In this intermittent romance spanning twenty years, Matsumoto Sayuri knew far more than Takasugi Toshihiko.

After they met again in college, Matsumoto Sayuri discovered that Takasugi Toshihiko was very likely the neighbor's child she had liked back then.

So she secretly investigated what happened twenty years ago.

She didn't ask Takasugi Toshihiko directly because she was afraid that if she recognized the wrong person, it would be very awkward.

As a result, this investigation not only revealed that Takasugi Toshihiko was her childhood sweetheart, but also incidentally uncovered the accident that led to the death of Takasugi Toshihiko's mother.

With several things laid out before her, combined with Takasugi Toshihiko's subtle attitude, Matsumoto Sayuri vaguely guessed the real reason Takasugi Toshihiko was with her.

After knowing these things, Matsumoto Sayuri didn't break up, but had been thinking about how to make Takasugi Toshihiko let go of the hatred from twenty years ago.

After she agreed to Takasugi Toshihiko's proposal, she originally wanted to tell him today.

That her father didn't refuse to save her back then, but didn't see the woman in the blind spot of his vision.

But she didn't expect that Takasugi Toshihiko already hated her to the point of wanting to kill her.

For a moment, Matsumoto Sayuri felt somewhat hopeless.

Looking at the poisoned lemon tea in her hand, her expression changed several times, and finally slowly settled on "not wanting to live anymore."

She leaned toward the straw and took a few forceful sips, drinking the poisoned drink.

A crystal tear slid down the corner of her eye.

"Don't drink it!"

Takasugi Toshihiko suddenly stepped forward and snatched the drink from Matsumoto Sayuri's hand.

Unfortunately, it was already too late...

Matsumoto Sayuri's body slowly went limp.

Seeing Takasugi Toshihiko's anxious expression, hope appeared in her eyes again.

"Okay, the time has come!"

Akaso Kaze's mouth curled up slightly.

Mantra Technique!

"Toshihiko, I know everything about your situation. I don't blame you; what happened back then was just a misunderstanding..."

Listening to Matsumoto Sayuri's explanation, Takasugi Toshihiko was stunned.

He knelt on the ground, holding the dying bride, his expression gradually becoming dull.

He didn't expect Matsumoto Sayuri to know everything, nor did he expect the other party to swallow the poison even though she knew there was poison in the lemon tea.

Matsumoto Sayuri raised her hand to touch Takasugi's face.

Her eyelids kept closing, but she opened them firmly.

It was as if she wanted to take one last look at Takasugi Toshihiko.

"You are my first love, my childhood sweetheart of over twenty years. Do you still remember the little girl who loved drinking lemon tea back then?"

"That was... me... ah..."

Her voice gradually faded, and her hand went limp, sliding off Takasugi Toshihiko's face.

"Sayuri! Sayuri!"

Takasugi Toshihiko shook the bride, his eyes filled with hot tears.

In an instant, all the kindness Matsumoto Sayuri had shown him since they started dating surfaced in his mind.

Coupled with the figure of Matsumoto Sayuri falling into his arms at this moment, it gradually overlapped with the figure of his mother back then.

The accumulated emotions gushed out in an instant, and tears couldn't stop flowing down.

He inadvertently caught a glimpse of the lemon tea placed on the side.

In an instant, an indescribable emotion instantly overwhelmed him.

He remembered Matsumoto Sayuri, who loved him deeply, and the despair and disappointment in her heart when she drank the lemon tea just now.

He remembered the scene of the two of them sitting side by side happily drinking tea when they were children. ===== CHAPTER 140 =====
