"I'm sorry, but now that things have come to this, I think we should be thinking about solutions, not getting stuck on the question of right and wrong."

"Don't change the subject, and don't assume that your mother will overlook the mistakes you made."

"Yes, I will spend my whole life making up for the mistakes I've made."

"So, you're going to abandon Mashiro?"

"No, I will never abandon Mashiro."

"So you're going to keep Setsuna and Umaru as lovers outside? Humph... Mom will never approve of this kind of philandering scumbag behavior."

"No, not exactly. I'll discuss it with my dad and try to immigrate abroad. There are quite a few countries in the world where polygamy is practiced, such as Iran, Syria, South Africa, Brunei, and so on."

Do you think this kind of thing would be allowed?

“I’m trying to get permission right now. All three parties have agreed. As long as Mom agrees, and I can convince Dad, there won’t be any problems on our side.”

"All three of them agreed?"

Hayase Kyūe subconsciously looked at Mashiro, and when she saw Mashiro nod in agreement, she looked surprised, her mouth slightly open, and she couldn't come to her senses for a long time.

A few seconds later, he leaned close to Mashiro and whispered something to her.

"You weren't tricked by Zong Jun, were you? Zhen Shiro, polygamy is no joke."

"It's okay, I like Setsuna and Umaru very much too."

“Some things can’t be shared with others… How am I going to explain this to your mother later… No, if it really turns out like this, I won’t even have the face to explain it to my father. Knowing that I’ve raised my son to be such a womanizer, my father will definitely scold me.”

More than ten minutes later, Hayase Kyūe finally got up and tapped Masamune's forehead hard with her finger.

"Zong Jun is a big bad guy, a greedy devil, a womanizing scumbag, humph...! Go ahead and do whatever you want. Figure out how to persuade your in-laws yourself, don't expect me to plead for you."

"Thank you."

Masamune breathed a sigh of relief. His father was easy to talk to; it was his mother who was the real challenge.

"sorry for bothering you."

Hayase Kyrie couldn't help but tap Masamune hard again, pursing her lips:

“You used to be a very withdrawn child. Your mother was always worried that you wouldn’t be able to find a partner in the future, and she was even thinking of arranging a fiancée for you after you went to university. I really don’t know why you went astray and ended up having three lovers in a row.”

"Isn't this too strange? Three wives? We're not living in ancient times anymore, how did the era suddenly change back?"

"I'm sorry." Masamune had no way to refute, so he could only honestly bow his head and apologize.

……

"What's wrong? You dialed the number but haven't said anything. I'll give you five seconds. If you don't say anything, I'm hanging up."

"I'm sorry, Dad, I just don't know how to bring it up."

Masamune hesitated for a moment, then began to recount what had happened yesterday:

"...That's about it. I need to move abroad and marry all three of them at the same time."

Did the girl confess her feelings first?

"Ah."

Are three enough?

"?? I'm serious, I'm not joking."

"I'm not joking. Wait a moment, I'll call you back in a bit."

Masamune looked surprised when he realized the other end of the phone had hung up.

Why does it feel like Dad had anticipated this all along?

Masamune was somewhat confident in persuading him, but he was too embarrassed to speak up and didn't know where to begin.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the phone rang again.

Upon seeing that the caller ID showed his father, Masamune immediately pressed the answer button.

"I have already made it clear that there is no need to change the nationality. Within a month, the new national policy will be introduced. Our country will change from a monogamous system to a polygamous system, and a man will be allowed to marry a maximum of five wives."

? ?

Masamune was stunned for several seconds before he came to his senses.

"Our family's power is so great that we can even amend laws?"

"That's not the case. Changing your nationality is not a trivial matter. Many people are unwilling to see you change your nationality, and similar arguments have always existed."

"So, I was the straw that broke the camel's back?"

"Take a bundle; your value is greater than expected."

"Thank you. Are you sure the policy will be released within a month?"

"One month at the latest."

"Alright, in that case, I'll postpone my visit."

"It's up to you. If you need help, call me."

"Ah."

After ending the call, Masamune thought for a moment and then dialed Setsuna's number.

"Yukina, you haven't told your parents the truth yet, have you?"

[Well, not yet. I really don't know how to say it.]

“In that case, let’s postpone it for a month. According to Dad, the government will introduce a new policy within a month, changing monogamy to polygamy. I’ll visit them after the law is enacted; that will be easier.”

[Huh...? Has the Hayase Group's strength reached this level?]

“Your reaction was exactly the same as mine just now. When Dad talked about this, I said the same thing.”

"Unfortunately, it might be possible in ten years or so, but the Hayase Group is not at that level yet."

"It is said that this debate has been going on for a long time, and this time it just happened to happen."

"To be honest, it was the result of efforts from many parties."

Will the law really be revised?

"Probably, it should take about a month."

[If it really turns out like that, and there are one or two more examples like this before, I feel like convincing my parents wouldn't be so difficult.]

"Well, that's what I thought too."

[This is indeed a pleasant surprise, but will it be released in a month? Generally speaking, legal revisions seem to take years.]

"We need to find a way to speed things up with money. I'll talk to Grandpa Sanzenin later and ask him to help out."

Then, ask more people to speak on your behalf.

With multiple conglomerates joining forces, even the prime minister cannot remain indifferent.

[That's true. When capital speaks, truth falls silent. Hehe... Besides, this isn't a very important law, so it should be fine.]

"No, marriage law often involves property division and inheritance, so it's quite complicated."

"Let's prepare for the worst. If the law isn't changed in a month, we'll move our citizenship. You can choose one in advance and see which country is better."

[Hmm, so you're prepared for both possibilities? No problem.]

After ending the call, Masamune called Umaru again. She was in the same situation and hadn't had time to tell her parents yet.

Hearing that the law might be amended, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Changing one's registered residence and obeying the law and following the country's arrangements are two completely different things.

Chapter 424 Since that's the case, then I'll keep going!

As Shiko Sanzenin's health deteriorated, Masamune would visit her home every few days to keep her company.

Whether it was the magical effect of some superpower or just good luck, although I heard she wasn't doing well, she always seemed to be in pretty good spirits whenever Masamune came.

“Masamune-kun, I heard from my father that the Hayase family is pushing hard for legal revision? And they even asked him for help.”

"Yeah. Last Saturday afternoon, I was confessed to by both Setsuna and Umaru at the same time..."

Masamune himself did not intend to publicize it extensively, but since she brought it up herself, he gave a general account of what had happened a few days ago.

"A womanizer and a scumbag, he must have been cursed by quite a few people, right?" Mizenin Murasaki chuckled.

"Yes, the person I scold the most is my mom."

"What does Masamune-kun think? Don't you think this is a bit too greedy?"

"That is indeed very greedy, but now we have no choice but to move forward, otherwise it would be like getting a good deal and then complaining."

"Hehe... The world is so amazing. When I woke up, everything, from laws and regulations to people's morals, had changed."

Sanzenin Murasaki sighed, then smiled and said:

"However, this is good too, no one will get hurt."

"We both have good personalities, can tolerate each other, and don't easily quarrel or get angry, which is a kind of happiness."

At this point, Shiko Sanzenin extended her right hand and lightly flicked Masamune's forehead with her finger.

"However, this approach is still a bit infuriating."

? ?

Masamune looked at her, puzzled. Was she going to praise him or scold him?

"You heartbreaker!" Sanzenin Murasaki chuckled and cursed.

"Ah."

"Congratulations, you've now gained a well-known flaw."

"Ah."

"Speaking of which, I heard from my father that the upcoming revision of the law will allow for one husband to have five wives. So, are you going to find two more after that?"

"For me personally, three is already more than enough."
