While taking small bites of her meal, Yukino asked, "How was the morning?"

"The cooperation was certainly achieved, and I also made money. But that's not the most important thing. Your mother was really shocked when she met me, and she's probably thinking about how to investigate me now."

Hearing Yukiteru's words, Yukino also chuckled softly, "That's just how my mother is. I remember she used to always have a sense of being in complete control. This time, it's probably a long-awaited miscalculation. She must be feeling terrible inside."

Although Yukino knew that Yukiteru was planning to show his strength in front of his mother, stop interfering in her life, and get rid of the so-called arranged marriage, she also believed that Yukiteru would handle things properly.

No matter what, that's the family that raised me, and it will always be my family home. It wouldn't be good to make too much of a fuss.

Oh no, this is getting more and more outrageous!

Yukino felt that her imagination was getting wilder and wilder lately. Even though they had only been dating for a few days, she was already fantasizing about that kind of life.

Immediately stopping her delusions, Yukino began to focus on eating.

After a few minutes, Yukino stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Yukiteru, who was staring at her: "Why are you staring at me?"

"It looks great! I haven't seen you for two days, so of course I have to take this opportunity to see you to my heart's content."

"Ugh... How come you're so good at saying things like that!"

After thinking for a moment, Xuehui replied with a smile, "I just thought of it. What do you think? Does it hit the nail on the head?"

That's true. Xuehui just said it naturally, and he didn't tell anyone else.

Yukino was speechless. When the two of them were alone, Yukiteru's aggression was just too strong.

Under her boyfriend's tender gaze, Yukino finally finished her bento.

After putting the lunchbox away, Yukino sat back down and looked at Yukiteru, saying, "Class starts in half an hour. Are you going to class?"

"Hmm~~~ I don't want to go yet." Shaking his head, Yukiteru leaned in and put his arm around Yukino's shoulder, then slipped his other hand under her legs and pulled the girl onto his lap.

"Ah!" Yukino exclaimed in surprise. She hadn't expected Yukiteru to suddenly make such an intimate move. Because he was holding her so tightly, she didn't dare to move and could only lean against Yukiteru's chest and glare at him. "Let go quickly, what if someone comes?"

"So, does that mean it's okay if no one comes?"

Yukiteru smiled, waved his hand toward the door, and with a "snap," Yukino knew the door was locked.

"You've learned so much, and you're just using it for this?"

"What's wrong with making life more convenient?" Yukiteru wrapped his arms around Yukino, inhaling her faint, reassuring scent, and closed his eyes. "Just hold me like this and rest for a bit."

When the two were alone, Yukino was not as indifferent to him as she was in public. This aroused Yukiteru's desire to tease her a little. It wouldn't hurt to be a little more forceful, would it?

"...Just for a little while, I have to go to class soon." Although they've entered the dating phase, Yukino is still a serious and good girl, and she won't agree to Yukiteru's deliberate attempt to stall for time.

So, after quietly snuggling together for a while, Yukino used her waist-pinching technique to pull Yukiteru up from the chair, and the two of them walked out of the Service Club together.

Although it was a short time, it was enough to make Xuehui happy for an entire afternoon.

As the school bell rang, Xuehui returned to the classroom.

"I thought you wouldn't be coming to class this afternoon either."

After watching Yukiteru sit down, Hachiman said to him, since this guy had suddenly asked for leave and skipped class more than once.

"I did want to, but in the end I came here anyway."

At this moment, the teacher also came in. Xuehui answered quietly, recalling the scenes in the Service Club, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

This scene gave Hachiman goosebumps: "That smile of yours is disgusting!"

"Really?" Xuehui was taken aback. It seemed that he had been a bit too cocky these past few days, talking about Yukino-chan and Shizuka-chan all the time, and had indeed become a little too happy to leave.

Stay calm, stay calm...

Calm down my ass!

After being a sage for so long, and now that my relationship with the girl has finally broken through a certain stage, do I still need to calm down?

Enjoying your youth is the most important thing!

"Huh..." Seeing the mysterious smile that appeared on Yukiteru's face, Hachiman couldn't help but grimace, unable to bear looking at him.

Unfortunately, the next second...

"Hachiman, class has started. Listen to the lesson and don't look around!"

The teacher's reprimand snapped Mr. Hikigaya back to reality, and he hurriedly turned around and picked up his book. He felt both helpless and puzzled as to why Yukiteru hadn't been called on by the teacher.

I took a look.

Oh~ the person in front of him was a boy, and the person in front of me was a girl. That guy's movements weren't very big to begin with, and a large part of his movements were blocked.

Well, I guess I'll just have to accept my bad luck.

After school.

With only four days left until the start of the cultural festival on Friday, everything has entered its final stage. Everyone is on high alert, carrying out the final tasks and conducting thorough checks.

Yukiteru and Yukino had just finished inspecting the outdoor stage and were now checking the outdoor booth setup.

While watching, Yukino said to Yukiteru beside her, "This afternoon, my sister messaged me, saying that I should go back tonight."

"Hmm...it seems I need to ask you some things about me."

“I guessed it too.” Yukino nodded, a slight smile playing on her lips. “They always think I’m still a child, but don’t forget, with an older sister like that around, I’ve learned a thing or two. If I want to hide it, they won’t know anything at all.”

"Wouldn't you call this betraying your sister and your mother?" Yuki asked with a smile. They probably never imagined that Yuki was now on their side.

"They made me do things I didn't want to do first. I'm not their doll," Yukino said with dissatisfaction, then stopped trying to bring it up. She had already decided that if her mother made any more unreasonable demands, she would just leave. Anyway, the teacher had assigned two bodyguards to protect her, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Don't worry, do you want me to come along again?"

"No!" Yukino said after glancing at Yukiteru. "I'm mentally prepared this time, so nothing will happen. Also, I forgot to ask, last time, were you really just eavesdropping?"

"Uh..." Xuehui opened his mouth, wondering how to answer this.

Seeing Yukino's increasingly scrutinizing gaze, Yukiteru thought for a moment and had no choice but to tell the truth: "Alright, I also went to your bedroom."

"...It was you all along! I knew I was so sleepy back then." After muttering to herself, Yukino's face suddenly turned red. She thought she was wearing pajamas back then?

"You didn't do anything to me, did you?" She had been sitting on the edge of the bed at the time, but when she woke up the next day, she was in bed with the blankets on...

"Come on, I've always been a gentleman to you, okay? I just politely carried you to bed and covered you with the blanket." Yukiteru looked at Yukino with dissatisfaction, making the girl a little embarrassed.

Meanwhile, not far away, Mr. Hikigaya, who was helping to move things, watched the two of them bickering and felt that he had discovered something.

There will be another chapter tonight, please support me!

Chapter 88 Yukino: I have connections.jpg (3/3)

Unbeknownst to them, a special atmosphere had formed between Yukiteru and Yukino, leaving almost no room for a third person to interrupt. Yet, the two of them continued their inspection and conversation as if no one else was around.

Fortunately, everyone else was busy with other things and didn't notice them, otherwise it would have become big news long ago, let alone been kept secret.

Finally, Mr. Hikigaya couldn't stand it anymore.

He deliberately took a detour as he passed behind the two, carrying his things, and coughed casually.

The next moment, the two finally snapped out of their sweet nothings and looked at Hachiman Hikigaya, who walked past them as if nothing had happened. Yukino frowned: "Have we been discovered?"

"Well, we didn't seem to notice just now, but luckily only Hachiman saw it, he probably hasn't made a final decision yet." Yukiteru didn't seem to care much, after all, Hachiman wasn't the type to talk too much.

"But she might tell Yui, and then she'll definitely keep bothering me with all sorts of questions." As she said this, Yukino glared at Yukiteru, "Don't talk to me anymore."

Watching Yukino walk away on her own, Yukiteru declared that he wouldn't take the blame, or couldn't take it alone: ​​"Please, this can't be accomplished by one person alone..."

Amidst the noise and commotion, a day of campus life finally came to an end.

At the school gate, Yukino, unsurprisingly, saw her family's car again.

After exchanging a glance with Yukino, Yukino went straight to the car, and Yukino, not bothering to linger, turned and left.

Because I prepared well in advance for the cultural festival, I haven't been too tired these past few days, and I've had more time in the evenings to finish writing the new volume of my novel.

As for Yukino, just trust her.

------

After getting off the bus and entering the house, Yukino unexpectedly met her father, the county councilor who was always extremely busy.

"Oh~ Yukino is back. It's been a long time since I've seen you. I'm so sorry that Dad had a meeting to attend last time."

Unlike her mother, Yukino's father always treated the children with a kind and gentle demeanor. However, the wife was the one who took care of the household affairs, and he rarely paid attention to the upbringing of their two daughters.

Haruno was a little better off, but Yukino was someone I rarely saw, especially after she moved out to live alone in high school.

Yukino was surprised that her father was home so early, but she didn't think much of it and shook her head: "It's okay, Father. Even though you're busy, you should take care of yourself."

Hearing Yukino's concern by chance, even though she couldn't detect much emotion in it, Councilor Yukinoshita was still overjoyed, her smile never fading as she nodded repeatedly.

"Oh dear, I've been so busy too, Yukino-chan, don't you even care about me?"

At this moment, Yukino slowly walked down the stairs, looked at Yukino with a smile on her face, and subtly observed her, as if trying to figure out something.

However, Yukino couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her older sister and simply ignored her. She never knew what Yukino was plotting next. Today, she and her mother had met with Yukiteru; she was probably also thinking of many things.

After dinner, Yukino was taken to the study by Haruno. This time, not only her mother but also her father, the head of the family, were there.

However, Yukino is completely different from last time.

Yukino has now not only confirmed her relationship with Yukiteru, but even Yukiteru's teacher, Ryougi Shiki, has accepted her and begun to nurture her with all her might.

Yukino, brimming with confidence, declared that she had powerful connections and was not worried about her parents' questioning.

"Mother, Father, is something the matter?"

Entering the study, Yukino looked at her parents.

Yukino's father expressed his confusion and looked at his wife.

Yukino's mother gestured for Yukino to sit down, then looked at her daughter and said, "Today we went to Sugita Real Estate to discuss cooperation, but we didn't meet Chairman Sugita. Instead, we met a young man."

At this point, Yukino's mother glanced at Yukino: "That boy in the same club as Yukino, named Hiratsuka Yukiteru."

Representative Yukinoshita understood her wife's words and said in surprise, "Chairman Sugita, you're connected to that Yukino's classmate? But isn't she a student? Why would she be in the company at this time?"

"I'm also very puzzled, especially since he's serving as acting president. There are just too many things that don't make sense. Yet the general manager next to him doesn't seem surprised at all. You know, that general manager was someone that Chairman Sugita personally trained."
