Chapter 568: Desire to Speak
Masayoshi Kishimoto and Makoto Natsui sat down at the dining table and began to have lunch together. There were a few times when his words were on the edge of his mouth, but he never said the words, I’m going to get married.
He was afraid of deeply hurting Natsui Makoto. Even if the two of them had agreed before they got together like this, it didn’t mean that she wouldn’t be hurt and upset.
Without saying it herself, she could still keep having fantasies. Saying it, she would become devoid of even the illusion of lying to herself in the end.
The reason Masayoshi Kishimoto wanted to say it was because he felt that there was no fire in paper. One day or another, a news story or something would shake out all about his marriage.
Instead of someone else saying it, it would be better to tell her himself. At the very least, he had done so by being honest with her. This was also the foundation of trust between a man and a woman together.
“What is the one thing you want to say to me?” Natsui Makoto couldn’t help but ask directly when she saw that he had been trying to say something a few times.
“Nothing.” Kishimoto Masashi still felt it was too cruel and didn’t intend to say anything. He himself was looking at her right now and she was fine. If he really said it, she would immediately let out a cry of pain.
Natsui Makoto said in disbelief, “I think you must have something you want to say to me.”
“I think it’s just too hard for you to bring up two children by yourself. Otherwise, you can hire a helper or two.” Justice Kishimoto said without saying what he really thought.
“Exempt. Hiring someone to come to the house to do things, not to mention helping with the children, even if it’s just to do some household chores, the charges aren’t cheap.
Even if it’s hard and tiring it’s for my own children, I won’t feel bitter and tired. What’s more, since I was a child, what kind of suffering and tiredness I have not eaten, have not suffered, what is this?
Could it be that you really think that I’ve become spoiled just because I’ve lived a good life with no food or clothing?” Natsui Makoto expressed her disagreement and said.
“Wasn’t I worried that you’d get tired? Besides, it’s not like we don’t have money. If we really didn’t have the money to hire someone, that’s something that can’t be helped. Since we have money, then we’ll use it to get rid of our troubles.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said seriously.
“I don’t feel like a trouble at all. I feel like I’m enjoying bringing up a child.” Natsui Makoto retorted.
Seeing that she was so insistent, Masayoshi Kishimoto couldn’t say one more thing. The thing he had wanted to say himself was about getting married.
Only, the person he married was not Natsui Makoto, but Sakai Rie. When a man said that he was a non-marrier or something like that in front of a woman, then nine times out of ten, it meant that the other person was not the person he was marrying.
Even if he himself had never said something similar to Natsui Makoto in this manner, it still made the individual feel guilty towards her inside, after all, the two of them were genuinely in love with each other.
He was not just craving for her body. If he really only coveted a woman’s body, there would be nothing left for the other party. Natsui Makoto’s beauty is only upper middle level.
As a plutocrat, he can’t get his hands on any beautiful women. There is no beauty that he craves, only beauty that craves him.
Natsui Makoto said with some embarrassment, “I do have one thing I want to talk to you about. Can you buy me a car?
Don’t be too high class, as long as it allows me to conveniently take my two children to the hospital for regular medical checkups, vaccinations, and the like. This taxi has the inconvenience of taking a taxi as well.”
“You want a car, why didn’t you say so earlier? That one platinum card you gave you is one of the highest grade, it can be said that you can buy any car ah! Porsche, or Ferrari, you can buy that kind of car if you like it.
You don’t have to worry about money at all, just buy the car you like.” Masayoshi Kishimoto was now eager for her to spend more of her own money.
That way, he would be able to feel good inside, after all, with a kind of financial compensation to make up for his own feelings for her above the shortcomings. Of course he knew that money couldn’t buy true feelings, but it was also a tactic that men used to use on women.
“I drive a sports car? What kind of international joke are you driving?” Natsui Makoto blurted out.
“How come it’s not okay? You’re still so young. It’s only when a young man drives a sports car that he has the energy to chase the wind. It’s hard to believe that it’s only fun for an old man to drive a sports car slower than a bus?” Justice Kishimoto spoke bluntly.
“If I had just given birth to one child and you bought me a sports car, I would be happy. I’m the woman who gave birth to two children, how is one seat in your sports car enough?” Natsui Makoto laughed.
“It’s my fault for not thinking things through. Then go ahead and pick out a car that you both like and is practical!” Masayoshi Kishimoto calmly said.
“Although I do need a car, I don’t really know about cars. That’s why it’s time to ask you.” Natsui Makoto said with an unchanged smile.
“I know. This matter will be wrapped up in my hands. I will get it for you as soon as possible. Actually, I think you should have a sports car of your own.
When you’re not taking the kids out, you can also chase the windy feeling.” Masayoshi Kishimoto patted his chest with the palm of his right hand and said.
“I see you’re in a confused state of mind today. I was able to leave the children’s side for a little bit, and that will need to wait until they’re in kindergarten at least.
That’s a couple years down the road. Even if you bought a sports car and gave it to me, it would be a complete waste of money. How often will I be able to drive it?” Natsui Makoto reasoned.
“Just because you bought it doesn’t mean you have to use it. There are some things that have no practical value in the first place, but can indicate a sense of superiority, social status and identity.
For example, I still have a racehorse. It’s been so long, and the number of times I’ve been to the racetrack is a handful.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with vigor.
Natsui Makoto was able to understand this kind of argument of his. In fact, the reasoning was quite simple. If you don’t have something that everyone has, then you will feel that you are at least inferior.
If you have something that everyone doesn’t have, you tend to feel that you are at least superior. If you have something that everyone has, you will have something in common, and you will be able to make friends and talk to each other easily.
“That’s your thing. I’m a person, it’s not like it’s the first day you’ve gotten to know me, I’m most concerned about a practicality.” Natsui Makoto said seriously.
Kishimoto Masayoshi naturally understood her persona and character. It wasn’t for no reason that she had developed this kind of habit.
It all stemmed from the habits she had developed since she was a child. Once a person had developed a habit, whether it was good or bad, it was not easy to change.
The children of poor families are born early. If you don’t have enough money on hand, you will inevitably count and count and count and count, and every yen will be utilized on its edge, and you won’t waste money for nothing.
Wasting money for Natsui Makoto, there is a sense of guilt in the heart to be able to produce out. Even if she had money now, she wouldn’t spend it recklessly.
