My new wife discovered my past

Chapter 10. Saotome's Welcome Party ①
It's raining in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

The sky in Shinjuku was gloomy. As the car drove along, there were few pedestrians holding umbrellas on the road who looked hurried. It might be because it was not yet the rush hour after get off work and the flow of people was not large.

Saotome Hazuki's car is also a BBA, a white BMW 5 Series.

Hitomi Matsumoto sat in the back seat, and Miyagawa Tsuyu sat in the passenger seat.

Miyagawa Lu kept talking all the way, and often when a topic was finished by Saotome Hazuki and Matsumoto Hitomi, she would immediately move on to the next one.

Without Miyagawa Lu's mediation, I wonder how many bruises the other two women would have gotten from being embarrassed along the way.

"By the way, which high school in Kyoto did Saotome-sensei graduate from?" Matsumoto Hitomi was quite interested.

After turning the corner, Saotome Hazuki told her: "Kyoto Seigetsu Higher Education School, is there any problem, Mr. Matsumoto?"

"Hmm... it's not really a problem! It just feels like Saotome-sensei and Watanabe-sensei... have known each other for a long time!"

The BMW was driving steadily on the road. Miyagawa Lu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was so shocked by what Matsumoto Hitomi said that her chin almost hit her chest. Before she could interrupt, she heard Matsumoto say:

"Now that I hear it, it turns out that Saotome-sensei also graduated from Xingyue High School..."

Stopping at a red light, Saotome Hazuki looked at Matsumoto Hitomi through the rearview mirror. The latter noticed her gaze and looked at her quietly.

'It seems this guy is no pushover either.'

Without Saotome saying anything, the person sitting in the passenger seat couldn't help but ask, "Also!? So, Mr. Watanabe also graduated from Xingyue High School, and is a graduate of the same high school as Hazuki-chan!?"

As expected of Miyagawa Lu, she naturally called her "Hazuki-chan", but apparently no one cared about that.

"Yes, what a coincidence, isn't it?"

"If it's true, it's really too much of a coincidence... But how did Hitomi know which high school Watanabe-sensei graduated from? I remember Watanabe-sensei never told us about his high school."

"Stupid Lu-chan, of course I asked him!" Matsumoto turned and smiled at Saotome who was concentrating on driving: "So Hazuki-chan and Watanabe-sensei have known each other for a long time..."

Matsumoto Hitomi at the back didn't say anything else because she knew someone would speak for her.

"Okay, so Yeyue-chan has known Watanabe-sensei for a long time? You have been pretending to us these past few days, making us think that you two just met, but I didn't expect you..."

As she was talking, Miyagawa Lu realized something was wrong and had an inexplicable strange feeling.

She couldn't say anything, so she closed her mouth, straightened her body again, sat in the passenger seat, and was as quiet as a chicken.

For a moment, there was an eerie silence in the car.

Saotome Hazuki chuckled and broke the deadlock: "In fact, I just learned from Mr. Matsumoto that Mr. Watanabe is my high school classmate.

"After all, there are so many students in Xingyue, how could they know each other by chance?"

It's a blunt explanation, whether it's true or false depends on what the people who hear it think.

Miyagawa Lu reacted quickly and agreed with Saotome's words, then changed the topic and volunteered:

"Although we have Beidou's navigation, Yeyue-chan has just arrived in Tokyo. You may not be familiar with the roads and streets in Tokyo, right? We are about to reach the barbecue restaurant. The traffic conditions on this section of the road are very complicated. I will be your guide!"

"Okay, then thank you Lu-chan." Saotome Hazuki also started calling the other party by her name.

The friendship between girls progresses so smoothly, girls are so beautiful...

"Watanabe? Watanabe!"

“…Hmm? Are we there yet?”

Takahashi Rinto, who was driving, shook his head: "No, there is still some distance.

"I say... Watanabe, what's wrong with you? You look so worried. I've called you so many times."

Watanabe Tetsuya smiled when he heard this, held his glasses and rubbed his brows, and evaded the question by saying, "I stayed up late last night to read a very interesting novel. I didn't get enough sleep, so I have a headache."

He just keeps telling lies skillfully and flawlessly, it seems that Toru Watanabe is also very familiar with the identity of Tokyo people.

The two did not ask any more questions, but Kurosawa Ryosuke teased him: "We thought you were thinking about your new wife... Tsk tsk, I'm so envious, I've been single since birth...

"Ahem! Although I've been in love three times, I'm 27 years old this year. I didn't expect that people younger than me are already married...

"There's an engaged girl sitting next to him...

"No, let me die first."

No, this can cue me and Jiko?
Watanabe Tetsuya was speechless, and then he started to fight back: "Don't be in a hurry to die, work harder to find a girlfriend.

"I think Ms. Miyagawa is pretty good. I heard that she has been single since birth. And in my eyes, you two are a perfect match, Takahashi, don't you think so?" "Yes! Yes!" Takahashi Rinto was happy, but he was confused: "No, Kurosawa, you have had three relationships? Haven't you always been a virgin?"

"There's no contradiction between being in a relationship and being a virgin! Who says that you have to have sex when you're in a relationship?"

Takahashi Rinto thought it made sense, but it was still a little strange, so he asked tentatively: "Kurosawa, who are your three ex-girlfriends? I've never heard you talk about your ex-girlfriends before..."

"Uh, this, this...the three of them are...Ayaji Nene, Shiki Natsume, and Musume..."

"There are these three female stars in the entertainment industry?" Takahashi Rinto was even more confused.

However, Watanabe Tetsuya held up the encyclopedia on his phone and complained: "Are all you Galgame players so amazing?"

"Galgame!?"

"No, no! It's not like that!" Kurosawa Ryosuke quickly denied it, shifting the blame to someone else: "Only us Yuzu chefs are like this!"

Watanabe, Takahashi: "..."

"Kurosawa, you should watch less ACG and get to know more girls in real life. I think Miyagawa-sensei is really good."

Even though the opponent was playing soft, Takahashi Rinto did not give up and continued to persuade him!
Friendship between men!
"That's enough! Miyakawa..."

"Don't be so quick to refuse, Kurosawa, think about it, if you don't seize the opportunity now, when Mr. Miyakawa has a boyfriend, you'd better not find a place to cry alone!
"Besides, in three years you will be a genuine magician..." Takahashi Rinto continued to persuade.

After hearing this, Kurosawa Ryosuke fell silent.

We parked the car in the parking lot and everyone got off and gathered.

There are only three umbrellas, so it's okay for two people to squeeze under each umbrella.

But in fact, you don't need an umbrella. The "Jiujiuen" where the welcome party for Hazuki Saotome was held is located in the Odakyu Department Store in Shinjuku, and you can go directly from the parking lot to the seventh floor where the barbecue restaurant is located.

Today is Friday, and it's already the rush hour after get off work. The queue in front of the barbecue restaurant is so long that it stretches out the door. It's very popular.

However, queuing has nothing to do with Watanabe and the others. Takahashi Rinto has booked a private room with an excellent location in advance.

The waiters in the store were all wearing kimonos, and the one who greeted Watanabe and his six companions was a young woman who was about 30 years old.

She had appropriate makeup, a generous smile, her hair was tied up in a bun, she was wearing an orange kimono and wooden clogs. She didn't look like an ordinary waitress. Later they learned that she was the owner of this store.

The female boss was very respectful and polite to Tetsuya Watanabe and the others, or more accurately, to Rinto Takahashi.

This store in Odakyu Department Store in Shinjuku can be said to be the best one of "Jiujiuen".

Whether it is the taste of the barbecue or the environment and service, it is not at the same level as other stores, as can be seen from the private room booked by Rinto Takahashi.

The private room for six people is spacious. There are six leather chairs on each side of the dining table, with men and women sitting on each side.

Kurosawa Ryosuke and Miyagawa Tsuyu sat at the innermost, Watanabe Tetsuya and Saotome Hazuki sat in the middle, and Takahashi Rinto and Matsumoto Hitomi sat outside.

"It's amazing... From here, the busiest streets of Shinjuku are right in front of us." Miyagawa Lu couldn't help but exclaim.

Hearing this, several people looked out the window. Under the neon lights, drizzle was falling outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and cars were flowing continuously.

The giant LED screen on the high-rise building opposite plays advertisements from luxury brands day and night.

"Ohhh! It's Hoshimi Haruka! Haruka-chan is so cute! I really hope I can go on a date with her..." Kurosawa Ryosuke made a perverted statement.

"Tsk, tsk..." Miyakawa Lu rolled her eyes at him: "Stop being disgusting!"

Hoshimi Haruka is a sophomore at Tokyo College of Music.

As one of the two most popular singers of the Reiwa generation, she has only been in the entertainment industry for three years, but she has already won the "Best Newcomer Award", "Gold Award", "Best Singing Award" and "Island Record Award" in the [Island Record Awards], winning the Grand Slam.

He has also established an independent personal agency and will launch his first national tour concert in Kyoto in May this year.

Next month, on June 6st, Haruka Hoshimi will hold the second show of her national tour at Tokyo Dome.

All in all, as a singer debut and one of the two great singers of the new generation, Hoshimi Haruka's achievements are astonishing.

Looking at the pure, lovely and gentle smile of Xing Jianyao on the giant screen, there was a wonderful and comfortable feeling as if she was a beautiful girl next door.

It was difficult for Toru Watanabe to connect that innocent face with the arrogant and domineering female kid in his memory who kept calling "trash~trash~".
