Tokyo Tutor: Starting with My Ex-Girlfriend's Sister

Chapter 35: Mom, I'm going to Zhangguo next week!

An alarm clock woke Yamazaki Kazukaze, shattering his youthful dreams once again.

What a beautiful dream! A noble and elegant young woman, so intelligent in the eyes of others, but only she saw her clumsy side.

After tidying up in the restroom, Yamazaki Kazuka began her afternoon classes.

The demanding study schedule made time fly by.

"I have a test in two days, teacher, am I sure I can do it?"

Himeno Saki looked at the sunset outside, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Don't be nervous, everything is under control."

"This is the first time I've put so much effort into something, and I'm so afraid of failing."

"Don't worry, Saki, your achievements will not let you down."

"Yes, Mr. Yamazaki, I won't let you leave me."

The setting sun shone on the girl's face, her innocent eyes filled with a hazy love.

Her eyes look like her sister's.

Yamazaki Kazukazu had seen that look in the girl's older sister before.

But that look was so complex that even after seeing it on the Himeno sisters several times, Yamazaki Kazuka still couldn't fully understand the thoughts in their eyes.

Late at night, Yamazaki Kazukaze, who was preparing his lessons, received a text message.

[Junior, are you free during the day these next couple of days?]

I have a day off in two days.

I'll come to see you at 1 p.m. that day, is that alright?

Haha, of course!

Although I know you're working hard, don't forget your research proposal. The purpose of my trip is to guide you in writing it.

After finishing his lesson preparation, Yamazaki Kazuka paced around the room, feeling a persistent soreness in his shoulders, which he attributed to prolonged sitting.

"Could it be that I'm getting old and my body is starting to have problems?"

Yamazaki Kazukazu always felt something was off in his shoulders. Thinking about it, he was not even 25 yet, and his body was already showing signs of aging. It was just too scary.

Perhaps I should really take Keiko Inoue's advice and start doing yoga.

Thinking of this, Yamazaki Kazuka remembered that he had accepted Inoue Keiko's invitation to do yoga together a few days ago. In order to avoid being too confused at the time, he might as well look at some yoga tutorials in advance.

While Yamazaki Kazuka was searching for yoga instruction videos, a phone call came in.

"Hmm, Mrs. Hime, is there something you need for your call so late?"

Let's go back two hours.

In Osaka, at a high-class Japanese inn, a stretched Toyota sedan is parked in front.

Hime no Kiyomizu, her secretary, and three assistants sat in the car, flanked by two black sedans, each carrying a bodyguard from the Hime no family.

Himeno Kiyoyuki stepped out of the car with an air of authority, and the hotel staff came forward to greet her, bowing and scraping as they welcomed her.

Throughout the entire process, Himeno Kiyoyuki remained silent with a cold expression. Even though the hotel had prepared a luxurious Japanese meal, Himeno Kiyoyuki only ate a few bites before getting up and returning to her room.

Inside the hot spring, Himeno Kiyoyuki was soaking alone, frowning and remaining silent.

Even the warm spring water couldn't soothe the noblewoman's nerves, and the servants attending to her could only carefully attend to her.

Half an hour later, Himeno Kiyoyuki sighed and got up from the hot spring.

The servants didn't dare to breathe loudly the whole time, wondering what could have made this noblewoman so angry.

"Don't worry, madam. This is a dessert from the hotel, please have a taste."

Himeno Kiyori's secretary had the kitchen make dessert, hoping it would make Himeno Kiyori happy.

But she only glanced at the pastries, then picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of tea.

"Madam, Miss Natsuki called during the day."

Why didn't you say so sooner!

"Because you're attending an important meeting, madam. I've arranged a time with Ms. Natsuki; she'll call me later."

The secretary was holding Himeko Kiyomi's phone when it rang.

Hime no Kiyomi quickly snatched the phone from her secretary, looking somewhat flustered.

"Natsuki, why did you suddenly call home? During the meeting today, everyone was talking about how your oil painting sold for 20 million euros."

"Mom, I want to take a break from school and go back to China to recuperate."

Why?

I'm tired.

Himeno Natsuki's tone was tearful and dejected, not at all like a painter who had just sold a painting for 20 million euros.

"I understand, my dear, you've worked so hard. You're my pride. When are you planning to come back to China?"

Hime no Kiyoseki understood and closed her eyes, a pained expression on her face.

"One month later."

"Okay, Mom will arrange it for you. You get some rest over there."

"In the morning, I called home, and Saki answered the phone. We only talked for a few minutes before she hung up."

"Sigh, Saki Ryo, she's always been like this. As her older sister, you have to be more understanding."

"Mom, is the male college student you found for her reliable?"

"You're worried about that?"

Hime no Kiyomi gave a wry smile; she had indeed worried about this issue herself.

After all, they were both young and full of life, and being alone in a room together could easily lead to something going wrong.

"I'm going home soon. I want to be more free at home. I feel uncomfortable being a man alone at home in the summer."

"You can be more relaxed in the bedroom, but dress properly when you go outside. After all, we often have guests over, and it's not appropriate for you to dress too casually in front of those ladies."

"Mom, it seems you're quite satisfied with that tutor; you're actually speaking up for him."

One of the purposes of Himeno Natsuki's call was to get her mother to get rid of the tutor.

As she grew older, Himeno Natsuki began to learn to communicate with her family, but she remained hostile towards outsiders.

"He's a good kid. I plan to hire him long-term, and it would be best if he could stay with Saki throughout high school."

"Mom, you've found Sakura a boyfriend."

"Mom understands what you mean, but Mom won't fire that teacher. Saki listens to him a lot, and we need him to educate Saki properly."

"Mom, have you thought about this? Why can he make Saki Ryo so obedient? You know Saki Ryo's temper."

"Don't talk nonsense. I've met more people than you've ever known salt. Mr. Yamazaki is very reliable; he changed Saki. Don't worry."

"What?! Mom! What's the name of the teacher you hired?!"

Himeno Natsuki suspected that she was so lovesick that she had misheard his name.

"His name is Yamazaki Kazukaze, and he graduated from the University of Tokyo. By the way, he graduated from Mishiro Junior High School, just like you."

*Thud!* Himeno Natsuki's phone slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.

"Hey, Natsuki, what's wrong? Natsuki!"

Himeno Natsuki sat blankly on the sofa, seemingly frozen for a long time.

After a long while, she finally came to her senses, bent down to pick up her phone, and fell off the sofa due to excessive force, her forehead and knees turning red.

Despite the pain and the shattered phone screen, she picked up the phone and continued talking to her mother.

"I'm fine, I just dropped my phone. Mom, how did you manage to get Mr. Yamazaki to our house?"

"One of my distant cousins, your aunt, from the Inoue family, you don't know her, do you...?"

"I don't want to know any distant relatives, Mom. I've changed my mind about going back to China."

"You're not going back to China?"

"No, I want to go back to China early. I'm going back next week!"
