A newbie's anime life diary

"Hmm~~ You're really possessive, even though you're nothing at all." Shaking her head, Yang Nai decided not to tease Yukiteru any further, since she had already made it so obvious.

"If I were really that casual, then you wouldn't stand a chance. Besides, I've hardly ever met any guys I've been interested in growing up. Even some outstanding ones have all sorts of problems, so my dating experience is zero. And..."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't really want to get married. I've finally broken free from the shackles of arranged marriages, and I don't want to add another one to the list."

Haruno's words dashed Yukiteru's hopes. It made sense; everything had been planned since childhood. Haruno had no say in what she should or shouldn't do, and the same was true for Yukino.

However, Yukino now has her own life, so she no longer needs to care about these things.

As for Haruno, although she also doesn't have to worry about the issue of arranged marriage because of Yukino, she seems to have a deep-seated aversion to marriage.

"If that's the case, then what were you doing just now?"

Xuehui, who thought he had figured it out, was once again unable to understand it.

"Don't you understand? I didn't expect you to be so innocent." Yang Nai looked at Xue Hui and said calmly, "Marriage is impossible, probably never in this lifetime. But, I also want to experience what it feels like to have a man to rely on. As it stands, you're the only one I can think of. So, are you willing to accept what I'm doing?"

"Do you think I could possibly accept such a reckless idea?" Seeing Yang Nai's expression, Xue Hui laughed, laughing out of exasperation.

This woman is really bold; she actually took the initiative to want to be a lover?

Haruno wasn't surprised by Yukiteru's exasperated yet amused expression. She looked at her calmly and said, "I think you'll agree. Tell me, do you like me?"

"These are two different things, and I will not agree to them no matter what."

Xuehui put down what he was holding, stood up, and walked towards the door.

"I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, and don't have that idea anymore. At most, I won't bother you like this anymore. Also, don't leave tonight, stay for dinner. I'm going to school now."

Xuehui opened the door and walked straight out.

With a "bang," the door slammed shut. Yang Nai stared blankly at it before collapsing back onto the bed.

"Oh dear, I messed up, I got dumped. But there's nothing I can do, Yukihiro-kun, that's just how I am, I act on a whim, so it was bound to get dumped."

As she spoke, Yang Nai shrank into the blankets and curled up into a ball.

"There are still two or three hours until I get home from school, so there's still some time..."

--------

On the other side, Xuehui left home with a tense expression, got into the waiting car, and returned to school.

Back in the classroom, although Xuehui had forced himself to calm down before coming in, what had happened earlier had really ruined his mood. No matter how well he tried to hide it, the people around him could still tell that he was in a bad mood.

When I got back, it was already the last class. Soon after, the bell rang, and the scheduled meeting was about to begin.

After quickly packing his bag, Yuki said to Hachiman beside him, "I'm going to the meeting room now. You and Yuihama, don't forget the time."

"Ok, I know."

Hikigaya nodded and watched Yukiteru leave the classroom.

At that moment, Yui Hama also walked over, looking at Hikigaya with some concern: "Hikigaya, what's wrong with Yukiteru? He seems to be in a bad mood. Didn't he just go home for a bit?"

"Well, don't ask too many questions. He can handle it himself. Hurry up and pack your things and head over there."

A few minutes later, the two arrived at the conference room. By this time, Yukiteru had completely recovered to his morning state, showing no signs of anything amiss. He was smiling and chatting with Yukino, causing Yuihama and Hikigaya to give up on asking him any questions.

The meeting concluded successfully an hour later.

After saying goodbye to Hikigaya and the others, Yukiteru, Yukino, Shizuka-neechan who had been waiting in the faculty office, and Utaha took a car back home.

"I bought the groceries while I was there, so I don't have to make another trip. I wonder if Yang Nai is getting enough rest..."

Upon opening the door, Yukiteru noticed that Haruno's high heels were gone from the entryway.

Did this woman still leave...?

Chapter 248 Go find her

Following Yukiteru's gaze, Yukino and the other two also noticed the situation.

"Didn't you say my sister was here? Did she leave again?" Yukino frowned, changed her shoes, and took out her phone after entering the living room. "I have to call her. We were planning to have dinner together, but she left without saying a word."

However, at this moment, Yukiteru walked over, took Yukino's hand, and shook his head: "Never mind, it's probably something that happened. You're a grown woman, there's no need to worry. Go change your clothes first, and then help me prepare dinner."

Yukino glanced at Yukiteru, seemingly lost in thought, then nodded and followed him upstairs.

Meanwhile, Shi Yu went to Xiao Jing, who hadn't changed her clothes but was lying on the sofa like a corpse, and whispered, "I think something's up."

“You don’t need to act like it’s a secret meeting. There’s no one else here.” Rolling her eyes, Sister Xiaojing sat up and crossed her legs. “I noticed when Xuehui came in. His expression was a little off for a moment. I guess something happened here before.”

"Do you think it might be..." Shi Yu said, making a circle with her right hand and poking around with her left index finger, a hint of something obvious.

"On the contrary, I think that's unlikely. And why are you getting more and more filthy, girl?" Xiao Jing said irritably, tapping Shi Yu's forehead without any politeness. "Don't you think that such a short time is enough?"

"Hmmmm~ That's true. So what's the reason? Did they have a fight?"

"I think it's possible, maybe it's something related to work." As she spoke, Xiaojing noticed her phone flash, picked it up and saw a text message from Hachiman.

"Oh? It seems pretty serious. You couldn't hide your emotions at all when you first came back to school? I haven't seen this guy angry in a long time."

Upon seeing the message from Hachiman Hikigaya, Shizuka frowned.

"Well, the one who tied the knot must untie it, so let's not say anything more and see what Yukino can figure out. After all, that girl is quite perceptive."

On the other side, when Xuehui returned to his room, he found that the bed had been completely made, the documents that were originally on the desk had been moved away and were gone, and there was no message left by Yang Nai.

"Is it really necessary to be like this... But thankfully, we've already arranged for people to protect us, so nothing should happen." Shaking his head, Xuehui opened the wardrobe and began to take off his uniform.

The process of preparing dinner was uneventful; I chatted with Yukino while we finished, and before I knew it, it was done.

After dinner, Yukino and the others took turns showering, while Yukiteru went back to his room first and turned on his computer. The translated text of the new volume of the novel had been sent, and Yukiteru needed to check it.

I read page after page for more than ten minutes when there was a knock on the bedroom door behind me.

Then, Yukino walked in wearing a cotton nightgown.

"What's wrong, Yukino? Is something the matter?"

"Nothing, just came to check." Standing next to Yukiteru, Yukino glanced at the computer screen. "Translation calibration?"

Xuehui's gaze didn't leave the screen; he simply nodded and said, "Yes, thankfully, after pointing out a few mistakes before, there are very few things that need to be changed anymore. I'm just doing a final review."

Yukino didn't reply, but simply looked at Yukiteru, who was working diligently, and then asked, "You're acting a little strange today."

Yukiteru paused slightly with his right hand on the mouse, then looked up at Yukino and asked with a smile, "I'm fine, what's wrong?"

“Something’s just not right.” Yukino shook her head, a serious look in her eyes. “You probably haven’t even noticed it yourself, but you’re too normal tonight, or rather, too rational. You’re not like this usually. If I came in before, you… even if you were busy, you would stop. Also, you haven’t been affectionate at all since you got home. It’s not just me, Shiho and Shizuka feel the same way.”

At this point, Yukino looked at Yukiteru, who had gradually fallen silent, and asked, "Has something happened?"

"Don't overthink it, it's nothing."

"Is it related to your sister?"

"..."

Seeing Yukiteru's expression, Yukino knew she had guessed correctly. She tightened her grip on his clasped hands and continued, "Just as I thought. Ever since the last banquet, my sister has been acting strangely. She hasn't been home or here. Today, I was hoping we could have a meal together, but she left instead. Now it's evening and she's still wandering around outside instead of going back to her apartment."

Wandering around aimlessly?

Yukiteru frowned and looked at Yukino, who replied, "I know you care about our safety, so you've always had people protecting us. My sister should have some too, so I asked around and found out that she hasn't returned to her apartment since leaving here. Yukiteru, can you tell me what happened?"

"...I'm sorry to have worried you." With a sigh, Xuehui thought for a moment and decided to tell her, "Well...after the banquet that day, I kissed her in the car."

Next, Yukiteru told Yukino everything that had happened that day, including what Haruno had said to him.

After her initial shock, Yukino calmed down and finally looked at Yukiteru, asking, "So what do you plan to do?"

"I don't know, I have no idea. Maybe I shouldn't have done it in the first place." Shaking his head, Xuehui didn't know what to do either. Yang was the kind of person who wouldn't easily change his mind, and some things wouldn't have any effect no matter how many times they were said.

"...No matter what, I should go find my sister. I'm worried about her being out there all alone, even with someone protecting her. As for what happens after that, we'll talk about it later."

Looking up at Yukino's serious expression, Yukiteru nodded, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed a number.

"Where is Yang Nai now? Hmm? I understand. Protect her safety. I'm coming over now."

Yukiteru put down his phone and stood up, while Yukino took out his coat and placed it in front of him.

After changing his clothes, Yukiteru looked at Yukino standing in front of him, walked over and hugged her tightly. Yukino also reached out and hugged Yukiteru back, closing her eyes and whispering, "After bringing my sister back, I'm going to discipline her myself."

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Releasing Yukino, Yukiteru gently touched her lips, opened the door, and went out.

He went downstairs, walked straight through the living room towards the front door, and said to Shiyu and Sister Xiaojing, who were watching TV, "I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back in a little while."

"You were in such a hurry." Looking at the closed door, Sister Xiaojing nodded.

"Yes, it's pretty urgent. Let's ask Yukino." After saying that, Utaha turned her head and looked at Yukino who was walking down the stairs.

Following the address he had been given earlier, Xuehui drove for 20 minutes and arrived at the entrance of a bar.

"Really, how did we end up here?"

Shaking his head, Xuehui pushed the door open and went inside.

Upon entering the bar, Xuehui's gaze immediately fell upon the lone figure sitting at the bar.

The time was set incorrectly...

Chapter 249 Education is Necessary

The bar was packed with people; although the nightlife had just begun, everyone was already having a blast.

Although it was already December and the atmosphere was quickly cooling down, because it was indoors, as Xuehui walked forward, the girls passing by were all trying on very revealing clothes. I saw things like heart-shaped open-chest sweaters several times, not to mention their bare thighs.

"Handsome young man, did you come alone? Would you like me to buy you a drink?"

As Xuehui was walking, a woman stopped him. She looked to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, quite pretty, with light makeup on her face. Judging from her white shirt and black trousers, she was probably an office lady who had just come out to relax after get off work.

Sure enough, these days, many people go out to relax after get off work due to immense work pressure.

Xuehui knew that the other party had taken a liking to him. If he accepted the invitation and the conversation went well, he would probably have a great experience that night.

However, Xuehui wasn't here to have fun today. Besides, none of the beauties at home were any less attractive than the woman in front of him, so Xuehui didn't need to waste his time on such meaningless things.

Of course, Xuehui didn't feel much aversion to the other person's attitude towards life, as long as it didn't cause trouble for others.

"Sorry, I'm here to see someone."

Smiling and shaking his head, Xuehui pointed to the figure not far ahead.
