Chapter 8 first quarter

The next day, Jing Guan came to visit as agreed.Tajima, who didn't know that Mariko had met Jingguan, happily said to Mariko, "We have a rare guest at our house." Mariko felt funny about her husband's cheerful attitude. Iseki greeted Mariko as if acting in a play and said, "It's been a long time since we met." Although their performances were not brilliant, Tajima did not see any flaws. "Welcome to come." Tajima said, patting Iseki's shoulder. "What time did you arrive?" When Tajima asked, Mariko couldn't help looking at Iseki's face. After a little hesitation, Iseki replied, "I arrived this morning."

Mariko went to the kitchen very relieved. While making black tea, they could hear their conversation in the living room.Mariko listened naturally. "Have you stopped painting?" asked the husband. "Yes." Iseki's answer was short. "It is a pity." "I don't think it's a pity, because I don't have the talent to paint, it's better to give up as soon as possible." "No, you have talent, do you want to try again?" "Forget it." Iseki replied simply. Mariko returned to the living room. "Miss Mariko hasn't changed at all," said Iseki.This kind of line is not good, because it is not natural.

"Brother Jingguan too." Mariko also said so hastily. Mariko excuses herself to leave the living room so that Jingguan can spy on her husband. Mariko wore sandals and went to a nearby sushi restaurant to buy raw fish sushi. The boss said with trepidation: "You just need to call." Mariko couldn't help but smiled wryly. Mariko went back after spending some time, and as soon as she entered the living room, Iseki smiled at her. That was a signal that he had probed out her husband's mind.
