Shinya, who was dissolving wasabi in soy sauce, looked gloomy. He frowned and looked at my face carefully. "Hey, are you serious? Are you serious?" "Really, that's why I'm bothered." Hey, hey, hey, Xingu said, gulping down the beer, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and slammed his fist on the table. "Watanabe, I told you last time, right? After Christmas Eve, I should have told you that I don't want to do this stunt." "I know." "Not only that, I also persuaded you to give up on New Year's Day and Valentine's Day. I said that's what an affair is all about. You haven't forgotten it, have you?"

"The situation has changed." "How?" When I was asked by Xingu, I didn't know how to answer. It is not easy to explain the current situation. "It's not okay because it's an affair, right? If it's not an affair, it's okay?" I said after thinking for a long time. Xingu pursed her lips. "What do you mean? I don't understand. You mean you want to break up with her?" "If this 'she' refers to a lover, unfortunately it is not." My answer made Xingu wrinkle his face and tilt his head in confusion, but his eyes widened immediately.

"Brother, do you want to be with your wife..." "That's right." I looked him in the eyes and nodded. "Just tell you that can't be done." Xingu waved his left hand as if trying to shake off something. "Only that is absolutely not okay. Brother, you don't remember my advice at all! You can't help it if you have an affair, but you must think carefully about the next thing, haven't I said that? I also said the so-called red line It doesn't exist at all, right? I don't know why you are so dazed, but don't even think about divorce, you must think twice!"

I calmly stared at him, who was so excited that he almost spewed beer foam from his mouth.By doing this, I want to make sure that I haven't lost myself. "After some men divorce their wives, don't they live happily ever after remarrying with the partner they had an affair with?" "That's an exception." Xingu said immediately: "Basically, you are wrong. Divorce is not so simple. Even if you fall in love with another woman, your wife will not say 'OK, I see' and just Obediently stamp it. Or what? Could it be that your wife has already agreed to a divorce?"

"No, I haven't told her anything yet." "Then, did your affair come to light?" "I don't know, I think it hasn't been discovered yet." My answer made Xingu nod with relief. "I hope so. Listen well, Watanabe, a wife is desperately trying to maintain her current life. As long as the current life is stable, she will definitely do so. The husband's one-sided decision alone must abandon the current life It is absolutely impossible for a wife to agree to this kind of thing. At that time, there will only be entanglement of love and hatred, and then procrastination endlessly. As a result, everyone will become unhappy. In the end, neither divorce nor reunion Going back to the original happy family, you can only live in pain day by day. I said these are for your own good, you have to think twice."

Is this a rule of thumb?Listening to Xingu's generous statement, I thought to myself. "Instead of living such a miserable life every day, wouldn't my wife think that it would be better to divorce quickly?" "They don't think so. You don't understand wives at all. They don't agree to divorce, not just because they don't want to lose the stability of life, but because they can't tolerate their husbands being happy alone. In order to prevent this from happening, they I think a slightly stuffy life is tolerable." After finishing speaking in one breath, Xingu drank the beer in one go, and drank all the wine in the glass.

He yelled at the clerk, "Another draft beer!" I ate kimchi and sipped my beer.I understand what he said very well, and I don't think Yumiko will divorce me immediately, maybe there will be an extremely long Shura hell waiting for me.But continuing to associate with Qiuye when I can't see where to go, the pain is too painful for me, and torturing her is painful for me. Instead of this, I would rather choose the road of purgatory myself. After the additional beer was delivered, Shintani put his forehead on the cup before drinking it, as if to cool his head. "So, what's going on now?"

"What do you mean?" "White Valentine's Day. You want to get a divorce, right? You also plan to confess to your wife that you are having an affair, right? But you still come to ask me to create an alibi for you. Isn't that contradictory?" "I'm going to tell my wife later, but I've promised my girlfriend to meet her on White Day, so I need an excuse to leave the house. Honestly, it doesn't matter if it makes my wife suspicious, even if it's a little unnatural, now and Christmas Eve is different. So it’s okay that you don’t have to plan as carefully as last time.”

Xin Gu raised his bangs with a defeated expression on his face, and I noticed that his hairline had receded a bit. "Did you mention your divorce to your girlfriend?" I nod. "mentioned." "Is she happy?" "At first she was very confused and tried to persuade me not to think that way, but now she is very happy." "I think so, all women are like this. It was you who broke the seal of her heart. You'd better be mentally prepared! From now on, she will be more and more aggressive. In the past, she could tolerate you returning to your wife, but She'll start crying and making noises in no time and won't let you go."

"how is this possible!?" "It's all like this, but it's useless to tell you now! Only when it really comes to that moment will you understand that everyone is like this." His tone was completely opposite from before and became very calm. It seems to have given up on something. He looked at me and said, "So, on White Day, what time do you have an appointment?"
