I have bound two systems.

A look of astonishment appeared in Suzumiya Chisato's eyes, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Yukinoshita Yukino was also frowning slightly.

When he looked at her, she looked back.

The moment their eyes met, they confirmed each other's expressions and made a decision at the same time.

"Um, excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."

"You don't know where it is, I'll take you there."

After Suzumiya Chisato pretended to be embarrassed, without waiting for others to react, Yukinoshita Yukino stood up quickly and took him out of the reception room.

The two stopped in the corridor away from the reception room and looked at each other, confirming each other's expressions.

After a while, Suzumiya Chisato couldn't wait any longer and asked first.

"what happened?"

"I should be the one asking you this."

Yukinoshita Yukino crossed her arms and responded sharply. When she became serious, her gaze was like a Siberian cold current, making it difficult to look her in the eye.

"What on earth are you planning with your sister?"

"..."

Because of her secret relationship with Yukinoshita Haruno, Suzumiya Chisato felt guilty for a moment.

But he knew that wasn't the point right now.

He had a vague feeling that Yukinoshita Haruno was playing some tricks between him and his sister for some ulterior motive.

Therefore, the most urgent task at the moment is for him and Yukino to exchange information with each other and find out what her purpose is.

"Yang Nao... Sister just told me that she invited me to have dinner here today and asked me to follow you. As for the rest, we can talk about it after she gets home."

Chisato Suzumiya kept the most important truth to herself and only gave the superficial reasons.

…………

Chapter 24: Yang is in action (two in one)

"…What is the reason why my sister invited you to dinner at home?"

Yukinoshita Yukino is very perceptive and not so easily fooled. She noticed that Chisato Suzumiya's answer still did not hit the point. Coupled with the anxiety of realizing that she was kept in the dark, she asked directly with full aggression.

But for Suzumiya Chisato, he still didn't know what Yukinoshita Haruno was planning, and he had an agreement with her beforehand, that is - unless she announced their relationship, he absolutely could not directly tell her about their relationship.

He had agreed to this at the beginning, so there was no way he could give a direct response to Yukinoshita Yukino's question.

As for lying to get by for the time being...

To be honest, it's not like Suzumiya Chisato had never done this before, but now he was watching Yukinoshita Yukino staring at his azure eyes quietly from a close distance, but for some reason he couldn't do it as easily as before, so all that was left was silence.

Looking at Suzumiya Chisato who unconsciously averted her gaze, Yukinoshita Yukino sighed silently as if she had realized something.

"I made an appointment with my sister. Can't tell me?"

I can only say that they are worthy of being sisters. Although there is no telepathic connection between sisters that only appears in comics, after living together for many years, Yukino still has a certain understanding of her sister.

Suzumiya Chisato did not admit or deny, but asked after a moment of silence,

"What about Sister Yang Nai towards you? What did she tell you before?"

Yukinoshita Yukino did not hide anything about Chisato Suzumiya's question.

The most important thing is that there is no need for her to hide what her sister had told her before.

"My sister asked me to bring you to her house for dinner this afternoon. I asked her the reason, and she told me that her family's real estate project will cooperate with your company in the future. After dinner, since my parents are also at home, we can sit down and talk about the details of the future cooperation."

In short, the reason that Yang No told her sister was work-related, which also cut off her room for a roundabout refusal.

Suzumiya Chisato thought silently. From Yukinoshita Haruno's perspective, if she really planned to announce her relationship with her that night, there seemed to be no reason for her to go to so much trouble to hide it from her sister just before announcing the relationship.

Of course, it does not rule out what she said before, that she would announce this matter to her family at the same time in a relatively formal occasion.

However, considering her completely different statements to herself and her sister, no matter how I thought about it, I still felt that something was wrong.

"Sister, your opinion of us is different, right?"

It's not a question, but a certainty.

Yukinoshita Yukino turned around and looked towards the courtyard outside the house.

Chisato Suzumiya also took a step forward, stood beside her, and looked in the direction she was looking.

The stone lanterns look quite Zen-like in the dry landscape. He feels that after his career stabilizes, he should buy such a mansion and start his retirement life.

"kindness."

"Don't you have anything else to say?"

"Sister Yang Nai, there is definitely something she is hiding from us, and it is different from the previous small fights. I always feel that she is planning something big this time."

"..."

After listening to Suzumiya Chisato's almost nonsense speech, Yukinoshita Yukino's originally cold little face showed a slight fluctuation.

She turned around and glanced at Suzumiya Chisato speechlessly, then sighed silently again, with a helpless expression on her face.

"I understand this without you having to tell me. What I want to say is, if you don't tell me what you are keeping to yourself..."

"Yukino, it's time to eat."

Yukinoshita Yukino's words were interrupted.

The two looked behind them.

[…After some communication between you and Yukinoshita Yukino, you discovered the asymmetry of the information you knew, and also realized that Yukinoshita Haruno had ulterior motives.]

[But before you could discuss this matter in detail, Mr. Yukinoshita appeared behind you and called you to dinner. ]

[As a guest, and out of basic etiquette, you cannot let other people in the living room wait, so you can only temporarily suppress the doubts in your heart and go to the living room to eat with Yukinoshita Yukino. ]

[When you and Yukinoshita Yukino arrived at the table, everyone else was already seated, and Yukinoshita Haruno was sitting next to her mother.]

[The last two remaining seats are placed side by side. Obviously, they are reserved for you and Yukinoshita Yukino.]

[Your anxiety grows, but you can’t change the status quo since everyone else is waiting for you to take a seat.]

[She and Yukinoshita Yukino, whose face suddenly turned slightly red for some reason and glared fiercely at her sister, sat down at the dining table next to each other.]

[The dinner at Yukinoshita's house was very sumptuous. It was the first time you tasted the food made by Mrs. Yukinoshita herself. You were quite surprised after tasting it. If a commercial restaurant gets a perfect score of 10, and yours gets a passing score of 6, then Mrs. Yukinoshita's cooking skills would be a perfect score of 9.]

[Your sincere compliments made Mrs. Yukinoshita more fond of you. She held up the sleeves of her kimono, with a smile on her face, and took the initiative to use the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of juicy grilled eel for you.]

[In addition, during dinner, the grandparents of the Yukinoshita family also liked you very much and kept asking you to pick up the dishes you liked. ]

[Before you came, you never thought that you would be treated like a home away from home at the Yukinoshita family. You felt flattered and did your best to talk about whatever topics the Yukinoshita family brought up, causing laughter and joy throughout the dinner table. If someone who didn't know the situation saw this, they would probably think you were a family.]

[It was only during the second half of the dinner that Yukinoshita Haruno, who had been making you feel uneasy, finally spoke. ]

[However, what she said was not what you had agreed to do before, that is, to make your relationship public. Instead, when the atmosphere at the table was good and no one was talking, she played with the spoon in her hand, looked at you and Yukinoshita Yukino with an ambiguous gaze, and said, "Really, Suzumiya-kun, it's about time you confessed to my sister. Do you really want the girl to take the initiative?"]

[As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else at the table stopped eating at the same time. Everyone had a slightly different expression, but the way they looked at you and Yukinoshita Yukino was equally playful.]

[Except for Mr. Yukinoshita, after hearing what the eldest daughter said, he looked at you with murderous eyes, and at the same time, he bit the chopsticks in his mouth tightly. ]

[As for the protagonists being watched, you and Yukinoshita Yukino, you were stunned on the spot. 】

[Especially you, no one else matters, the only person you care about right now is Yukinoshita Haruno. ]

[After she said this, the sight she gave you across the dining table made you feel so strange at this moment, as if she was really a caring and good sister, offering assistance to her sister's emotional problems that had not made any progress.]

[For such a completely unexpected development, your brain crashes for a moment and is unable to respond effectively.]

[While your mind was in a state of confusion, Yukinoshita Yukino reacted first. ]

[She was unaware of the increasing redness on her face, and she stood up suddenly with both hands on the table.]

[The girl's eyes flashed with coldness, and she loudly rebuked Yukinoshita Haruno: "Sister, stop joking!"]

[But Yukinoshita Haruno seemed to have expected such a reaction. She still had a light smile on her face, propped up her chin with her left hand, and waved her right hand casually, responding: "Shy little Yukino is really cute, but it's time to stop. After all, we are in college now. If you keep hiding your affection in your heart and are not honest enough, it will only make the person who likes you suffer."]

[After a round of confrontation between the sisters, you, who are the focus of the topic, finally react at this moment. ]

[You looked at Yukinoshita Haruno, but she didn't meet your gaze, nor did she have any intention of hinting at you.]

[You are dissatisfied with her behavior, but after all, this is in front of their family, so you can't ask her directly. ]

[You are very quick to react and finally speak up to smooth things over at this awkward moment, and continue to lead the conversation in the direction of joking.]

[At the same time, Mrs. Yukinoshita seemed to think that it was unkind for her two daughters to argue about such a topic in front of the guests, so she took the initiative to end the topic. ]

[However, the dinner process after this was no longer as relaxed and comfortable as the first half. ]

"???"

Chisato Suzumiya, who had been leaning against the head of the bed watching the simulation process, had now straightened up in shock.

His eyes were wide open, unable to comprehend what he was seeing.

No, what on earth is this woman Yukinoshita Haruno thinking? ? ?

He didn't understand, he really didn't understand.

Although things have become very obvious at this point.

Yukinoshita Haruno deliberately asked Yukino to bring him home, deliberately concealed and plotted between himself and Yukino, and in front of the elders of the family, he created a situation that he could not explain clearly, and said ambiguous words that deliberately brought himself and Yukino together. It was obvious that he wanted to have further development between himself and Yukino.

Just like myself and her in the past.

But why?

Pushing her boyfriend to her sister, regardless of whether she and her sister had such an idea...why did she suddenly have such an idea? It's totally unconscionable!

Suzumiya Chisato experienced the frustration of brain-burning for the first time in a long time. With his current IQ and learning ability, he could easily solve difficult advanced math problems, but even with such excellent brain power, he was unable to understand Yukinoshita Haruno's thinking for a while.

Every move was outside the chessboard and completely unexpected.

Chisato Suzumiya paused the simulation process at this moment, pacing back and forth in the room, looking back at every detail from the time the two officially confirmed their relationship to the present.

But this was a futile effort. He didn't catch even the slightest clue, let alone guess the reason behind her thoughts.

"call……"

Suzumiya Chisato sat down dejectedly on the edge of the bed, then scratched her head in annoyance.

There was no point in thinking, so I could only continue reading.

The self in the simulation is not a fool, but it is not appropriate to ask about Haruno in front of Yukinoshita's family. I will always find a chance to ask clearly later.

He readjusted his mindset and allowed the simulation to continue.

[…After dinner at the Yukinoshita family's house was over, Yukinoshita Yukino said she was not feeling well, cleaned up her dishes, and left directly to her room.]

[As a guest, you followed the host's wishes and sat back on the sofa in the living room at Mrs. Yukinoshita's arrangement. You chatted with them casually while eating some fruit after dinner.]

[During this time, Yukinoshita Haruno has been trying to win the favor of the other members of the Yukinoshita family for you. ]

[If tonight you two had made your relationship public as originally agreed, this would probably be the thing you had hoped for the most, but now, I can only say that you have mixed feelings.]

[It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, and Grandpa and Grandma Yukinoshita got up and went back to the house to rest. Seeing that it was getting late, you finally found a chance to take your leave.]

[My little daughter is not here, and it is hard to get a taxi around here at night, so Mrs. Yukinoshita asked Yukinoshita Haruno to drive you.]

[Yukinoshita Haruno readily agreed and did not refuse. ]

[Although Yukinoshita Yukino had gone upstairs early, she seemed to have been silently paying attention to the movements downstairs. ]

[When you and Yukinoshita Haruno were about to leave, Yukino walked down the stairs and stared at her sister seriously, saying that she wanted to go out together. She also had a lot of questions that she wanted to ask Haruno. ]

[However, Yukinoshita Haruno did not give her this opportunity, saying that if Yukino must follow, then she would go back to her room and give her the task of seeing you off. ]

[It's obvious that she doesn't want to be with both you and Yukino at the same time. ]

[Compared to her sister's doubts, her current priority seems to be to talk to you alone. 】

[Yukinoshita Yukino had no other choice. She thought about her sister and knew she had to go home. If she kept pestering her sister, her sister might not tell her the truth.]

[So even though she was a little unwilling, Yukinoshita Yukino still gave up her original idea, looked at you meaningfully, and went back upstairs to her room. ]

[Under the night, you walked out of Yukinoshita's house. ]

[Yukinoshita Haruno drove out of the garage and stopped in front of you. You opened the door, sat in the passenger seat and fastened your seat belt. ]

【Now that the two of them are alone, there is nothing to worry about. 】

[At this point, you can finally ask directly without any worries about the doubts you have been holding back all night.]
