But this time, there's no sign of stopping.

He continued, "I'll say it again, cut ties with that kid immediately! What kind of behavior is this!"

"No!" Shi Yu turned her head away and said without hesitation.

This stubborn, defiant attitude really angered Mr. Kasumigaoka. He glared at his head-timid daughter, then looked at his wife, hoping she could put in a good word for him.

Unfortunately, even her usually authoritative husband's words had no effect, so how could her daughter possibly listen to her, a housewife? She was already an adult, and before even starting university, she was already shouldering the household expenses, so the wife didn't want to scold her.

However, she couldn't ignore her husband's advice.

"Ah, well, I think it would be better to find Yukiteru-kun and explain things clearly."

That was all she could say in the end.

"That's right, call that kid over here. I want to ask him properly what he thinks of my daughter!"

"He's still in Osaka today. I'll ask him to come over to my house when he gets back tomorrow." Nodding in agreement, Shiyu stood up and went upstairs. "I'm tired. I have class tomorrow, so I'll rest now."

After saying that, she ignored her parents and went up the stairs without turning back, no matter how much her father called out to her.

Back in her room, Shiyu lay down on the bed and sighed softly, pouting as she said, "Wasn't that a bit disrespectful to Daddy? Ah, Yuki-kun is so slow, he won't be back until tomorrow..."

As she thought about it, Shiyu opened her makeup bag, which she had placed aside, took out her ring, and put it on her finger.

Looking at the ring, Shi Yu felt her mood improve again.

A dozen minutes later, Shiyu, who was lost in thought, heard the sound of the door being opened. She opened her eyes and saw that it was her mother who had walked in.

"Mom, why are you here? Is Dad still angry?"

“Him? He’s still the same old him.” Shaking her head, the wife walked in and sat down on the edge of Shiyu’s bed. “Really, you didn’t even tell us about something this big. Don’t you feel wronged? This isn’t ancient times anymore. How can such things still happen?”

"Although I did think about giving up at first, I just couldn't bear to. Looking back now, it was all worth it. I'm doing pretty well now, although you'll find out sooner or later." Shi Yu sat up in bed and said with a smile.

Seeing her daughter like this, the wife knew that the other party was not lying.

She lowered her head and sighed, then noticed the ring on Shi Yu's hand and asked in surprise, "Shi Yu, what's this...?"

"Ah, this?" Hearing her mother's question, Shiyu raised her hand and said with a smile, "Xuehui proposed to me before."

"But...but..."

"There's a way to solve this, Mom, don't worry."

"Could it be some kind of immigration method?" Although she now understood Shiyu's determination to some extent, she still couldn't think of a solution and felt that this was not a good idea.

"I won't immigrate. Anyway, you'll find out when you see Xuehui tomorrow."

"Alright then, that's the only way. You're all grown up now, so I can't say much more, but I can't persuade your father."

------------

The next day, after spending some time playing outside with Yona and having lunch, Yuki received a call from Shiho and learned about what had happened the day before.

"Ah, I knew after all. Shiyu, are you alright?"

"How could nothing be wrong! Yesterday, Dad immediately called me back home and scolded me for ages. He even wanted me to break off all ties with you, but of course I wouldn't agree! So I kept a straight face at him the whole time. Aren't I amazing? Praise me!"

"Alright, alright, you're the best." With a sigh, Xuehui praised her twice with a wry smile, but he still knew that Shiyu was definitely not that calm inside.

"Okay, I'll come back now and go meet your parents."

"Okay, then come back soon. My dad took the day off today and is waiting for me at home."

After hanging up the phone, Yuki looked at Yono beside him.

The other person asked excitedly, "Are we going to confront Shiyu's parents? How interesting! Can I go and take a look?"

"Don't cause me any more trouble!" Xuehui said irritably, giving her a chop to the head. "It's time to go back to Chiba."

"Alright, that's about it, let's go back." Nodding, Yang Nai didn't linger and immediately got into the car with Xue Hui to return.

Back in Chiba, Yukiteru first dropped Hino off at home, and then drove to Utaha's house.

I rang the doorbell, and the door opened quickly.

"Huh? Shiyu, didn't you go to class?" The person who opened the door for him was Shiyu, who should have been in class.

"You're coming back, so I took half a day off. Come on in." Seeing Xuehui finally arrive, Shiyu smiled, helped him change into slippers, and then took his arm as they walked in.

In the living room, Mr. Kasumigaoka sat on the sofa with a serious expression, while Mrs. Kasumigaoka sat beside him, looking somewhat uneasy.

Walking over, Xuehui, wearing a top hat, said, "Hello, uncles and aunties."

"Hmph!" Mr. Kasumigaoka was clearly not going to give Yukiteru a pleasant look, and simply kept a straight face and didn't say a word.

Mrs. Kasumigaoka was a bit better. She smiled at Yukiteru and said, "Please sit down."

After sitting down with Shiho, Kasumigaoka-san, having composed himself, immediately said, "Let me be frank, I absolutely will not agree to you and Shiho continuing your relationship. This won't lead anywhere!"

It seems they're determined to oppose it to the end. Xuehui and Shiyu exchanged a glance, feeling rather helpless.

Chapter 318 Call Your Elders Over!

After exchanging a glance with Shiho, Yukiteru looked seriously at Kasumigaoka-san and said, "I will not give up on Shiho."

"Then cut off your relationships with the other girls and focus on being with Shiho! I might agree to that." Mr. Kasumigaoka looked at Yukiteru, paused for a moment, and then said this.

"...I'm sorry, but I would never do such a thing." Xuehui could tell that the other party was thinking of his daughter, but he would absolutely not agree to such a thing.

Shiyu, who was standing to the side, frowned and said, "Dad, don't say things like that. If Xuehui-kun really agrees, will he treat me like this in the future?"

"Um... In short, I just don't agree to this kind of relationship between you!" Mr. Kasumigaoka thought about it and realized that was indeed the case, but then he couldn't agree to it even more!

"I don't care, it's already a fait accompli, and I don't want to go looking for anyone else. I'm 18 years old now, and I know exactly what I'm doing. I don't care if you disagree. At worst, I'll wait a year or two, bring the child to you, and see if you'll agree then!" Shi Yu said defiantly, disregarding her father's thoughts, and directly stated her plan.

Not only Shiyu's parents, but even Yukiteru was startled.

While this is one way to do it, isn't Shiyu being a bit too direct?

Emmmmm~ Why do the two people opposite seem a bit tempted after hearing this?

Ah, I see. Parents of this age usually seem to be thinking about having grandchildren. Although it's still a bit early for Yu Shi, she's probably starting to think about that too.

But no, that would be like forcing someone to resign.

Well, everyone's just sticking to their own opinions now.

Holding Shiyu's hand, Xuehui shook his head at her, then looked at the couple opposite him and said, "Uncle and Aunt, I will not give up. Shiyu must be with me, and I will not give up on the others either. Not one of them can be missing."

Shi Yu nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Kasumigaoka admired Yukiteru's insistence, but that didn't mean she approved of his relationship with Utaha. Mr. Kasumigaoka, after taking a deep breath, looked at Yukiteru and said, "It seems I can't reason with you. Let's talk to someone else. I know your parents have passed away, but you still have a guardian, right? I remember it's a teacher at the school. Let's get her over here and have a proper talk."

"..."

Is this a call to the parents?

Xuehui and Shiyu exchanged a glance. Although Xiaojing's relationship with Xuehui had not yet been exposed, it was definitely not a problem to ask her to come. But was this really a bad idea?

Just as the two were wondering how to respond, and Mr. Kasumigaoka was getting impatient and wanted to use his phone to contact the school to find someone, the doorbell rang.

"Someone's looking for you? Who would come at this hour?" Mrs. Kasumigaoka said with some doubt, then stood up to open the door and see. "Wait a minute, I'll go check first."

Mr. Kasumigaoka had no choice but to put down his phone and wait a few minutes.

Shiyu noticed that Xuehui's expression was a bit strange and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"Um...the teacher is here."

"Teacher? Oh? Really!"

"Judging from your tone, you seem quite happy," Yukiteru said, not paying attention to Kasumigaoka-san's expression.

"Hehe, since the teacher is here, it means she knows what's going on here. Looks like we don't have to stay stuck here anymore." Shi Yu gave a thumbs up and said with a smug look on her face.

"...I hope so."

At the same time, the lady who opened the door saw Ryougi Shiki standing calmly at the door, dressed in a dark kimono.

"Um...who are you looking for?" Judging from his appearance, he was no ordinary person, and Mrs. Kasumigaoka couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"This is the Kasumigaoka family home, right?" Ryougi Shiki asked calmly, looking at the lady opposite her.

“That’s right, this is the Kasumigaoka family home.”

“Then there’s no problem. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Ryougi Shiki, the teacher of Hiratsuka Yukiteru. I’m here today to talk to you and your husband about Yukiteru and Utaha. May I go in first?”

"Ah, ah, please come in." The lady immediately made way for Ryougi Shiki and welcomed her in.

In the living room, Yukiteru saw Ryougi Shiki enter and immediately stood up, saying, "Teacher."

"You need to plan everything, especially something like this. You're being a bit too hasty." Ryougi Shiki nodded after seeing Yukiteru, then gave him a slight reprimand, making him feel a little embarrassed.

Then, Ryougi Shiki looked at Kasumigaoka-san, who had also stood up, and said, "Hello, I am Yukiteru's teacher, Ryougi Shiki. I think it would be better for me, as the elder, to communicate with you two."

“…I see, that would be even better.” Mr. Kasumigaoka hesitated for a moment before nodding. From what Utaha had just said, he knew that this person had come alone without communicating with Yukiteru or Utaha beforehand. He should be able to resolve the matter properly.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as he wished.

After everyone sat down again, Ryougi Shiki spoke first: "Regarding Yukiteru and Shiwa, the reason you two object is probably because you're afraid that your daughters will be married to Yukiteru in name only, and that people will gossip about it."

Mr. Kasumigaoka nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right. I only have one daughter, so of course I don't want her to suffer such injustice."

"I don't think I'm wronged at all," Shi Yu muttered softly to herself, but she was immediately glared at by her father, so she grabbed Xue Hui's arm and turned her head away from him.

"This matter is actually very easy to resolve." Ryougi Shiki said this with a calm expression, which shocked the Kasumigaoka couple.

“Very good... a solution? But this kid is dating several girls right now! Is this also a solution?” Mr. Kasumigaoka said angrily, pointing at Yukihira’s embarrassed face.

"It's not a difficult thing. Although I'm quite angry that this kid would rather find other girls than add my daughter, it's really not a big deal. I happen to know some people and have some influence, so what you think is impossible is just a matter of putting in a little more effort for me."

While complaining about her disciple, Ryougi Shiki calmly took out a rolled-up piece of paper from her sleeve, unfolded it, and handed it to the couple opposite her.

"This is... a marriage registration form?!?" The couple exclaimed in surprise as they looked at the paper handed to them by the wedding ceremony attendant. This person is really straightforward and blunt!

"Um... Teacher, is this your solution?"

“Isn’t their concern about Shiho’s future? This solves the problem.” As she spoke, Ryougi Shiki took out a few more sheets of paper and handed them to Yukiteru. “Here, these are for Yukino and the others. They’re all over 16 now, so let’s register them first. All the forms are filled out, just sign and stamp them.”

...Teacher, you really caught me off guard.

As for Shiyu, she was practically jumping for joy right now.
