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

Too easily satisfied? What kind of wet nurse can earn 500,000 yen a month? Or does she start receiving wages before the wedding even takes place and continue until she dies? Yui rolled her eyes, thinking of her mother's expression when she thought she was being kept, and how she only agreed to sign the contract after Yukino herself intervened.

Uh... I'm doing this so you don't have to worry about money.

Yukino said shyly.

Hmph~ I'll just take it as a betrothal gift from Xiaoxue to marry me.

But what the heck is this "direct admission qualification" to Dongda University?! I was dumbfounded when Ms. Jing told me about it, you know?

I suddenly felt that my three years of high school had been completely meaningless.

"Well... how about I have someone cancel it? Why don't you try taking the test yourself?" Yukino blinked and asked Yui.

Uh... let's just cancel it, it's too much trouble.

Yui's embarrassment was impossible to hide.

Xiaoxue has been so good to me, I feel so bad for her.

Because you're my only friend, I can't even be bothered to look at anyone else.

The reverse is also true. Xiaoxue is also my best friend, so there's no question of owing or owing anything between us.

Sigh~ If Xiaoxue were a boy, I wouldn't have to worry so much. I could just be with you and ignore that H guy Xiaoqi.

I'll definitely tell him tomorrow; I bet his expression will be priceless.

Yukino giggled.

Hmph, let's not even talk about that greedy guy. Even after getting Xiaoxue, he still won't let me go.

Actually, I tacitly approved of it, otherwise he wouldn't have had the guts.

I don't want my relationship with Hachiman to affect our friendship.

Yukino said shyly.

Yui pouted, expressing her envy of Hachiman's luck. Meeting a girl like Yukino was a blessing he had earned over several lifetimes.

Go to sleep, let's not talk about this anymore, we have to get up early tomorrow.

Yukino said.

Okay, time for bed. Goodnight, Xiaoxue.

Yui hugged Yukino, whose body was slightly chilly, and slowly drifted into a dream.

Yukino gazed gently at Yui's childlike sleeping face for a while before closing her eyes.

Chapter Seventy-Four: Edinburgh Travelogue (Part Six)

Ah, it's supposed to be a mountain climb, but it doesn't seem that high.

After ascending to the top of Arthur's throne, Yui looked down at the beautiful view of Edinburgh below and spoke with a dreamy gaze.

Well, it's only about 180 meters.

Yukino, holding Hachiman's hand, climbed to the top after Yui.

"Where's my camera?" Yukino turned to Hachiman and asked.

It's hanging around Komachi's neck.

Hachiman pointed to Komachi, who was about 20 or 30 meters behind with Rumi.

Wow! It's so beautiful.

After catching up with the three, Komachi exclaimed in surprise, just like Yui.

Komachi, give me the camera.

Yukino said gently.

Oh, Komachi quickly handed the camera to Yukino.

Yukino took it from her hands, and was about to kneel down to take a picture when she suddenly realized that she was wearing white capri pants today, and she was immediately embarrassed.

Hachiman silently took off his coat and laid it in front of Yukino. The girl didn't make a fuss; she simply turned the coat over and covered the ground with the back of it.

Kneeling on the ground, Yukino aimed the camera at Edinburgh below, adjusted the focus, and snapped photos.

"You can even take photos? Yui is amazed."

She knows more than you think; this girl is not only a good rider, but also a pretty good marksman.

Really?! Where did Xiaoxue learn all this?

Yui was very curious.

Who knows? Maybe her father taught her in Hawaii.

Hachiman was joking.

Huh? I've never been to Hawaii.

Yukino turned around in confusion and said, not understanding why Hachiman said that.

It's nothing, just a joke.

Yukino rolled her eyes, ignoring Hachiman, and focused intently on finding various angles to match the bright light and shadow.

Perhaps out of pity for the hard-won journey of these people, the weather in Edinburgh today is exceptionally good.

The sky was a clear blue, with only a few lazy white clouds dotting the sky.

You guys move over there, let me take a picture of you.

Yukino pointed to a cement disc-like object on the side and spoke to the people standing next to her.

"What is this thing?" Komachi asked curiously.

I'm not sure either, it's probably a model of the Round Table Knights' dining table.

Hachiman said uncertainly.

"What are you saying? Hurry up! The light is so good now, why aren't you making the most of it? Are you waiting for it to rain?" Yukino exclaimed in dissatisfaction.

Cough, stop talking for now, or Yukino will get upset again.

Hachiman coughed, revealing his henpecked nature.

whispering sound.

After taking photos of the group, Yukino examined them on the camera, pouting unhappily as she walked towards Hachiman.

Did you have a botched plastic surgery and are experiencing side effects? Your face is as stiff as an ice cube.

Yukino shoved the camera into Hachiman's arms with a disgruntled expression, tilting her chin up to indicate that he should look at it himself.

...I don't take many photos, so this is already pretty good.

Hachiman looked at his own image inside, which resembled a funeral portrait, and stubbornly continued speaking.

"Isn't Xiaoxue going to take pictures herself?" Yui suddenly spoke up, which helped Hachiman out of the predicament.

Without a tripod, I couldn't even take a time-lapse video.

Yukino felt a little disappointed that she wasn't in the family photo.

There's a platform here, just put the camera on it.

Hachiman pouted and suggested to Yukino.

Hmm... I'll give it a try.

After Yukino finished speaking, she lay down on it and started adjusting it, sticking her little bottom out.

You can just stand there and smile.

As she set a ten-second delay, Yukino kept her eyes fixed on it.

Okay.

Hachiman had just agreed when he noticed Yukino running over.

Hug me~

Hachiman obediently reached out and caught Yukino, who had run to the back and was hooking her arm around his neck. He supported the girl's delicate buttocks, and the smiles on their faces were genuine and radiant.

111—

This morning we all went to the Throne of Arthur, the one with King Arthur! The scenery was really beautiful, and we even took a group photo. Xiaoxue also said we're going to Carlton Hill for a BBQ later. Just a few minutes ago, Yui Hihama came from here.

Hina: Has Hachiman just abandoned Hayama like that?

Hayama: ...........

Yumiko: Huh? That explains why I went to your house to find your aunt but you weren't there.

By the way, where are you?

Yui: @Yumiko, I'm so sorry~ I forgot to tell you, I'm in England right now. I'll make it up to you when I get back.

"What are you doing again?" Hachiman leaned closer to Yui and looked at her phone.

Chatting with someone else~ Xiaoqi, why are you so gossipy?

Yui stuffed her phone into her pocket, not letting him see it.

What gossip? I was just curious because you were all smiles.

"Really?" Yui looked at Hachiman with a smile, then casually put her arm around his and stuffed him into her dumpling.

What are you doing?

Hachiman blushed and tried to pull his hand away.

Why are you shy? Neither Xiaoxue nor I have any objections, but you're embarrassed? Don't tell me you're all talk and no action. Yui hugged Hachiman's hand tightly.

"Snowy~ Where are we going now!" Yui shouted, startling Hachiman so much that his hands and claws twisted wildly.

Let's go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients; aren't we going to have a barbecue this afternoon?

Yukino turned to Yui and spoke, as if she couldn't see the two of them embracing.

We need to buy more meat! Lunch was terrible.
