The Hikigaya couple's youthful love story is definitely not a problem.

Hachiman said helplessly, no longer wanting to resist the fact that Hiratsuka Shizuka had already treated him as free labor.

What are you talking about? What nonsense are you spouting? I'm still in Kyoto right now. What do you need my help with? Hiratsuka Shizuka blinked, not understanding why Hachiman's tone was so fierce, even though she hadn't said anything yet.

Shizuka Heike felt very wronged, and her little nose wrinkled up as a result.

Sorry.

Hachiman immediately apologized to Heiji Shizuka before continuing, "What do you need me for if you're in Kyoto?" Shizuka rambled on, "I didn't take the school bus because I wanted to buy some things." Hachiman rolled his eyes, grabbed his phone, went back to the bed, put on his slippers, and headed to the living room.

Throughout the journey, Shizuka Heike recounted why she had stayed in Kyoto and her experiences that morning.

"What does all this have to do with me?" Hachiman sat down next to Yukino, complaining impatiently.

"Young man, don't be in such a hurry. This is all just preparation. Otherwise, if I were to start talking to you right away, you would still be completely confused, wouldn't you?" Hiratsuka Shizuka smiled, and Liu Gang's mood, which had been ruined by Hachiman, improved.

After hearing Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice coming from the phone, Yukino indifferently pulled her face away from the phone and sat back down in her seat to talk to Komachi. As for Rumi, she had been staring at the jade bracelet on her right hand and grinning foolishly since the beginning.

Hachiman couldn't help but worry when he saw his daughter like this.

If a mere broken bracelet can fool the little guy like this, who knows how he'll be fooled by others in the future! Are you listening?! After talking for a while and finding no one responding, Hiratsuka Shizuka yelled at Hachiman on the other end of the phone in annoyance.

Huh? I'm listening.

Hachiman averted his gaze from the three women and began spouting lies without a second thought. Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't believe Hachiman's nonsense at all, but since he insisted on it, she couldn't do anything about it.

He could only grit his teeth and purse his lips in frustration, wishing he could bite someone directly.

Suppressing her inner impulses, Shizuka Heike's good manners allowed her to speak calmly with people. However, if the other party was too reckless, the female teacher, who was proficient in martial arts, would not hesitate to let them experience what is called the iron fist of love.

So, after I finished shopping and returned to my room to check out, the front desk told me that there was still an unpaid bill for a room booked by our school. It's probably because a student ate the snacks in the room, isn't that common? Why are they calling me about something like this? Hachiman was a little confused, not understanding why Shizuka was calling him about something like this. "That unpaid room belongs to Yukino. Let me read you the bill, maybe you'll understand."

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at the bill in her hand, unsure whether to laugh or cry.

Okamoto Platinum Ultra-Thin Delay...

"Stop talking!" Hachiman quickly stopped Heike Shizuka from saying the full name of some rubber product.

Okay, okay, I won't say it then, but you'd better be careful, Hikigaya-kun. Luckily, I stayed an extra morning this time, otherwise, if this bill had fallen into someone else's hands, I'm not sure if it would have been leaked.

Heike Shizuka said this with a mocking tone, and the female teacher felt extremely pleased at that moment.

Although it's a bit unfair to do this, we finally managed to catch Hachiman's little trick, so how could we just let it go like this?

That box contains ten tubes, and our school trip only lasts four nights.

Young people should take care of their health, otherwise they'll be ridiculed for having to take health supplements in their twenties or thirties.

Hiratsuka Shizuka remained quite pleased.

Hachiman just wants to drag that silly little dumpling over and give him a good beating.

I was truly wronged this time.

However, there's no way to refute it yet, because a certain Loshi item has indeed been consumed.

What should I say if Shizuka Heike asks? Should I say I blew it up like a balloon? Are you done laughing? I'm hanging up now.

Hachiman hung up the phone with a dark expression.

Hahahaha~ Heiji Shizuka listened to the busy tone on the phone, ignoring the astonished looks from those around him, and burst into loud, booming laughter.

"What's wrong?" Yukino asked with concern, looking at Hachiman, whose face was extremely pale after finishing the phone call.

Hachiman sighed helplessly.

He leaned down and whispered in Yukino's ear about his conversation with Shizuka Taira.

Yukino, who had been endured at least ten times in four nights but remained unharmed, was completely bewildered. However, after realizing what had happened, she became quite angry.

This Yui... Yukino, whose innocence was inexplicably violated, was also suffering in silence, unable to express her bitterness.

So the couple, having nowhere to vent their frustrations, agreed that the next time they saw Yui, they would hang her up and give her a mixed doubles beating, so that the girl would know the price of a bad reputation.

Yui, who was playing at home with Sabre, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly sensed two strong murderous auras. Sabre also seemed to sense the bad luck on its master, and ran away with a mournful cry, as if it didn't want to be tainted by the ominous cloud.

Ouch... Why is it suddenly so cold?

With her arms crossed, the dumpling looked even more upright. Ignoring the runaway Sabre, Yui went back to her room to put on another layer of clothing. Completely unaware of what awaited her, Yui was still admiring herself in the mirror. Meanwhile, Yukino and Hachiman were already plotting how to deal with the girl.

Meanwhile, Komachi and Rumi were excitedly offering suggestions, while Hachiman silently mourned for Yui in his heart.

If these guys manage to mess with you, you might as well have died a worthy death.

Hachiman sighed, but showed absolutely no sympathy for Yui.

Chapter 135 The Feeling of Home

Hachiman was very annoyed by the woman in front of him who was smiling just like the receptionist. This was clearly his own home.

Why am I the one being ostracized and left speechless? Is it really because of this woman? Staring at Haruno, who has unceremoniously taken over most of the sofa, Hachiman can only squeeze in with Rumi in a stifling manner.

Hey, Hitachi-kun, why are you looking at me like that? Could it be that you actually have feelings for me too? Sisterhood is such a greedy thing to do.

Yang looked at Hachiman with a smile, completely unconcerned that his shameless, bare white legs were exposed.

"Sister!" Yukino blushed instantly and protested loudly to Haruno, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs up.

Shouldn't Koyuki Mana be protesting against this incredibly lewd guy who's been staring at my legs ever since I walked in? I'm the victim here!

Yang Nai feigned a tearful expression, but a smile still lingered on her lips, as if she enjoyed teasing Hachiman. "You started shaking your leg in front of me as soon as you walked in, how could I not watch?" Hachiman rolled his eyes, trying to save face.

"You didn't suddenly come to my house just to sow discord, did you?" Hachiman sat sullenly in the corner of the sofa, having been idly watching the little guy in his arms fiddling with the bracelet since the beginning, as if he couldn't get enough of playing with it.

What? You won't even let me see if my little sister is doing well? Yang Nai stared wide-eyed, as if Hachiman would kill her if he dared to say no. No, he wouldn't dare.

Hachiman hid his head behind Rumi, letting the little guy shield him from someone's murderous gaze.

I wonder which older sister would make a copy of her brother-in-law's house key just to see her younger sister.

Muttering to himself, Hachiman pressed his forehead against the back of Rumi's head.

Dad, what are you doing? Don't blow on me like that, it's so itchy!

Rumi giggled, shrinking her neck to prevent Hachiman from blowing on her.

Honestly, I always feel that this little guy is almost exactly the same as you were when you were a child, whether it's his temperament, appearance, or even his personality. Eh Yo watched with great interest as Rumi played with Hachiman.

I told you before, but you didn't believe me, so who can you blame? Yukino looked at the warm interaction between the father and daughter, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Why don't you bring her to me? What do you say?" Yang Nai stared intently at Rumi, silently making a decision in her heart.

No, neither I, Hachiman, nor even Rumi herself could agree to that.

Yukino decisively rejected her sister's request, leaving her no room for imagination.

Hehehe~ Little Rumi continued to giggle, struggling slightly as Hachiman tickled her. Her cascading black hair brushed against Hachiman's nose, causing the boy to sneeze a few times.

Yukino is so heartless~ Yumano's expression was a little gloomy, but with her exoskeleton armor, she quickly adjusted her mood and chatted and laughed with Yukino as usual.

Yukino gently bit her delicate lips. Although the gloomy look on Haruno's face only appeared for a moment, the girl's observational skills were remarkable.

She had always taken care of her since she was a child, and even sacrificed a lot because of her willfulness.

Yukino always felt a little guilty, and when Young Hachiman learned that the reason the two were able to get together so smoothly was because Yukino had negotiated with her parents first, that feeling of guilt deepened.

"Should I ask Rumi?" Yukino said hesitantly to Haruno.

No need. I just had a sudden urge, and I'm already very satisfied that Yukino had this intention.

Haruno smiled gently at Yukino, then continued speaking with great emotion.

They used to say that love can change a person, and I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that this statement is completely true.

In less than a year, Yukino seemed like a completely different person; I had that feeling every time we met back then.

She has become increasingly gentle and understanding.

I always feel like my sister has become a completely different person.

Yang hugged her legs, rested her head on the sofa, and looked up at the ceiling.

This looks much better than before, doesn't it?

Yukino rested her head on Haruno's shoulder and spoke softly.

Hikigaya-kun, I'm suddenly really envious of you.

Yang Nai almost couldn't suppress her emotions. She forced back the tears welling up in her eyes and said to Hachiman with a slight sob in her voice.

I always feel there's a unique atmosphere here. Although the house is a bit small, it's much cozier than Yukinoshita's house.

You're probably talking about the feeling of home, right? I can tell you with absolute pride that in this respect, Yukino's home can't even come close.

Hachiman tickled Rumi's belly, talking without even looking up.

After being teased for a while, Rumi was now panting heavily with a flushed face. She had been struggling a bit, but she collapsed into Hachiman's arms, looking up at her godfather with great dissatisfaction. She was very unhappy with his habit of tickling her all the time.

Yang Nai watched the interaction between the two, one big and one small, and pondered something.

Home.

Don't listen to his nonsense. Why don't we have that feeling in our family? It's not some melodramatic TV series; the idea of ​​rich families being heartless is too unrealistic.

After glaring at Ryohachiman, Yukino quickly said to Haruno.

"Do you think I don't know what my own home looks like?" Haruno was quite pleased with her younger sister's offer of comfort, but it still couldn't change the fact that Yukinoshita's house always looked cold and deserted.

Even when the family of four manages to sit down for a meal together, someone often has to miss it for various reasons.

Finally, everything was settled, but the four of us with poker faces had nothing to talk about. After all, this wasn't a game of cards where four identical cards could win. I've decided, let me know when you move, and I'll live with you from now on.

Yang slapped his thigh, causing the white, tender flesh to ripple like water.

Hachiman's eyes widened, thinking, "If you were the master, things would get interesting."

After thinking for a moment, Hachiman was about to refuse.

"Hachiman, it seems you have a problem with that?" Haruno looked at Hachiman with a sly smile, the threat in her words was obvious.

dare not.

Hachiman immediately cowered.

That's a great decision then. I'll be waiting for the day you move in.

"So what exactly are you here for?" Hachiman asked, his face full of distress as he clicked his tongue.
