My Romance Simulation with Them

"In fact, Nango-kun's relationship with Chizuka and Takina was done with my approval... no, with my support."

She was telling the truth.

During the period between her junior and senior years of high school, she even specially found a lot of harem anime and TV dramas for Nango Toki, hoping that he would accept Nishiki Chizuka and Inoue Takina.

Rio Futaba's golden eyes remained completely unmoved as she spoke these words.

Now that she's in university, she's grown taller than before.

Her figure is much more mature than before, and she has overcome her long-standing inner conflict, so when she speaks, she gives Futaba's parents an indescribable sense of composure and confidence.

Futaba's parents were naturally very satisfied with their daughter's tremendous change.

but--

"absurd."

Futaba's father gently tapped the table, then looked up in disbelief: "You actually support your lover doing this?"

"It was Chizuka and Takina who helped me get out of the shadows of the past."

Rio Futaba showed no sign of backing down: "I can't bear to see them both unhappy while I'm the only one who's happy."

She continued, "When Dad and Mom weren't around, it was Nango, Chizuka, and Takina who were by my side, so I wasn't alone like before."

Although Rio Futaba never mentioned it.

But my parents work away from home for many years, and sometimes they can't come home even once a year.

She still had some complaints about this.

He then heard his own daughter say such things.

As expected, Futaba's parents also showed a hint of guilt.

but...

"This is not the reason for your current relationship."

"For me, this kind of relationship is enough; I am already very happy."

Rio Futaba persisted relentlessly, showing no intention of backing down.

"...Nango-kun".

Seeing that he couldn't persuade his daughter.

Futaba's mother felt somewhat helpless and could only look towards Nango.

What's your opinion?

"In fact, Rio's meaning is exactly what I mean."

Nanxiang also had no intention of making concessions.

On other issues, he could give Futaba's parents a huge leeway.

But only when it comes to the matter between Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue.

He absolutely cannot back down.

The attitudes of the two people have already been made clear.

Futaba's parents' expressions grew increasingly grim.

Things seemed to be heading in the worst possible direction—

"Sigh... Riko, you see, just like I said, there's nothing we can do."

Just a moment ago, Futaba's father was full of dissatisfaction and disapproval, but when he looked at his wife, he gave her a helpless, bitter smile.

"...But..."

Futaba's mother frowned her beautiful eyebrows, just about to continue speaking.

"Alright, you and I actually anticipated this outcome a long time ago, there's no need to continue acting."

Futaba's father shook his head with a helpless smile.

Then, he looked at Rio Futaba, who was looking at them with a somewhat puzzled expression.

Futaba's father smiled and began to explain.

[It turns out that even before returning to Japan, Futaba's parents had already asked an acquaintance to investigate Rio Futaba's current living situation.]

[Having not returned to China for over a year, Futaba's parents were still concerned about their daughter's current life and the boyfriend she mentioned.]

Therefore, they had already noticed the relationship between you, and were also aware of the existence of Nishiki Chizuka and Inoue Takina.

When they learned of your relationship, their first reaction was naturally shock and astonishment, and they even wanted to stop it immediately.

However, according to information gathered from acquaintances, you two get along very well living together, and even accommodate each other.

They then suppressed their immediate urge to stop it and began to observe silently.

[Through their observations, they quickly discovered that their daughter had overcome her psychological weaknesses and, under your positive influence, was becoming increasingly outgoing...]

[It wasn't just you who helped; Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue also provided a lot of assistance.]

Realizing this, they had mixed feelings.

[If you're friends, your relationship is undoubtedly a perfect friendship in their eyes.]

Clearly, your relationship is more than just friendship.

Furthermore, through observation, they have also come to realize that your relationship is very close and harmonious.

It is no longer possible to separate you from one another.

Realizing this, they decided to return to Japan and invited you to meet them.

“If you choose to hide the matter between Ms. Nishiki and Ms. Inoue from us and are unwilling to take responsibility, then Riko and I will absolutely not tolerate your relationship.”

Futaba's father spoke up, shaking his head, "Even if Rio resents me, I will force her to leave you."

He looked up and even felt a sense of admiration for Nanxiang Shi, who dared to act decisively.

"And clearly, in this respect, Nango-kun, you have not disappointed me."

That's what Futaba's father said.

"...dad?"

Rio Futaba was pleasantly surprised by her father's unexpected agreement.

Futaba's father waved his hand, signaling Futaba Rio not to speak.

He then looked at Nango and said, "The fact that you're willing to tell us this shows that you have no problems with your character."

Thank you for your compliment.

Nanxiang lowered his head.

If it were an ordinary young person, upon hearing Futaba's father say this, they would probably be overjoyed and excited.

But Nango knew that Futaba's father had not yet discussed the truly crucial issue.

That is, whether he truly approves of them.

But he noticed Nango's composed expression.

Futaba's parents exchanged a glance, clearly very satisfied.

It's satisfactory, though.

What needs to be said should still be said.

"You young people's affairs should be handled by you young people."

Futaba's mother spoke up.

She had been silently observing her daughter's life with Nango Toki, Nishiki Chizuka, and Inoue Takina for a long time.

They knew their relationship was unshakeable.

"But that doesn't mean that Riko and I completely approve of you here."

Futaba's father took a sip of coffee: "If you want to gain our full approval, we'll have to see how you perform in the future."

He looked at the southern countryside.

"Although I am very happy now, and no one can interfere with my life... the road of life is very long."

Futaba's father sighed softly, "What will happen to you two in the future... and what kind of relationship will develop, we, Riko and I, will observe from the sidelines... If you continue as you are now..."

He stopped there.

However, the meaning behind his words was quite clear.

They have temporarily accepted the relationship between Nango Toki, Nishiki Chizuka, Inoue Takina, and their daughter.

But what happened next...

That depends on how their relationship develops.

After all, they are together now and living happily and harmoniously, and they will not allow others to interfere.

It's possible, but not necessarily so.

The human heart is the most fickle thing.

No one can predict what the future holds.

The atmosphere during this casual meal was fairly harmonious.

Futaba's parents didn't mean to make things difficult for you.

[In reality, they harbor a subtle sense of admiration for you, who helped Rio Futaba overcome her psychological trauma.]

You have temporarily gained the approval of Futaba's parents.

This result put Nishiki Chizuka and Inoue Takina at ease.

Similarly, they also felt a sense of relief.

[It's fortunate you didn't hide their existence, otherwise this meeting with Futaba's parents would definitely have ended badly.]

Your sense of responsibility towards them earned you the approval of Futaba's parents from a near-desperate situation.
