Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

"Died of illness? If you don't say that, how can you highlight Shinomiya Kariya's image of being kind and great? Kaguya's mother, Lady Nayatake, committed suicide by jumping off a cliff."

"What?" Hachiman really didn't expect this.

"One day, Lady Meiyatake, who had always been in poor health, disappeared from the Shinomiya family. Someone saw her walking towards the beach, and only the lady's shoes and a suicide note were left on the beach. However, only Shinomiya Kariya had read the suicide note. But in the end, the news was blocked. After all, the suicide of the second wife of the Shinomiya family was not a glorious thing, so it was announced to the outside world that she died of illness." Hayasaka Ai said.

"What's the reason? Being abused?" Hachiman asked curiously.

However, Hayasaka Ai showed a strange expression: "It seems that it is related to Lady Nayazaki's life experience. There are rumors... just ridiculous rumors, saying that Lady Nayazaki is the illegitimate daughter of the emperor when he was young and had an affair. She was lost to the people and was forcibly possessed by Shinomiya Kariya..."

No, wait, although this is a rumor, Hayasaka Ai said it on purpose, so it is certainly credible.

If this is the case, then Kaguya's significance to the Shinomiya family may be more than just a bastard's youngest daughter?

Thinking carefully about the connection, Hachiman suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Author's words: I have something to do today, so I can only update once. Counting the two I owe, I owe three in total.

Chapter 175: Transformation Begins

Night is about to fall, and Yukino's one-day "holiday activities" in Tokyo has come to an end. Hachiman is responsible for sending her back to Chiba.

"Well, that's it for today. Thank you very much for hosting me today, Kaguya-sister."

Sitting in Hachiman's car, Yukino said jokingly.

Kaguya looked quite unhappy, but seemed to be unable to do anything about her, so she said, "Hayasaka, bring me some salt. I'm going to start exorcism."

Hayasaka Ai, who had been standing quietly by her side, took out a small bag of salt from her pocket and gave it to her, carefully reminding her: "Industrial salt is very strong."

Then Kaguya was just standing there in embarrassment, looking at Yukino's mocking expression of "Come on, come on and pee", and angrily said to Hayasaka Ai: "Why are you putting a bag of salt on your body if there's nothing wrong?"

Hayasaka Ai said calmly, "Hikigaya-sama gave it to me just now."

As soon as the words came out, the two people in the car burst into laughter. Kaguya couldn't hold it in anymore and said in a venting tone: "Don't let me see you in Tokyo again in the future. Just stay in your Chiba, hum."

But Yukino stopped smiling and said softly, "That's hard to say."

"What do you mean?" Kaguya looked at Yukino with some horror. Although she had suffered many humiliations from this woman today, she knew that it was only temporary. After all, this woman's territory was in Chiba and she was in Tokyo. Although not far away, the difference was clear.

Yukino did not answer, but said to Sayoko who turned to the side: "Well, Miss Sayoko, I wish you a good dream tonight."

"Husband, Madam, you too." Sayoko did not expect Yukino to talk to her actively, and said a little flustered.

"Hey, Sayoko, what do you mean? Who are you closer to?" Kaguya said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"But we're almost getting divorced." Sayoko retorted in a low voice.

"They're still together." The aunt took up the weapon of identity to attack the younger generation, even though Sayoko was older than her.

"But you never paid attention to me before." Sayoko retorted in a low voice.

You ignored me when I was bullied before, and now you want me to stand over you when you want to pick a fight?

I may look stupid, but I'm not really stupid.

“I was…” Just as Kaguya was explaining, Hayasaka Ai came in and covered Kaguya’s mouth.

"Alright, alright, miss, we're almost back, Hikigaya-sama, Yukinoshita-sama, have a safe trip home."

Sayoko also quickly said: "Then I will go back to the hotel too."

Hachiman nodded, then started the Crown, said goodbye to everyone, and drove away from Tokyo under the colorful neon lights.

"What's going on Miss Sayoko?" Yukino said with a hint of scrutiny.

"President's secretary, you saw it, and I really need to find someone I can trust to help me organize daily documents." Hachiman said without any guilt.

"Hehe, I heard that she is the wife of the next heir of the Shinomiya family." Yukino asked.

"Didn't she say that she was getting a divorce soon?" Hachiman felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by her.

"You are really amazing." Yukino said with a slightly sarcastic tone.

"Thank you, you're not bad either," Hachiman said sincerely.

"But, Miss Sayoko, you'd better be careful," said Yukino.

"Hey, why? She shouldn't have any bad intentions." Hachiman was quite confident in judging people.

"It's not that she has bad intentions, but Miss Sayoko gives me a very strange feeling. She is obviously a harmless person."

"Even the leader said so?" Hachiman said jokingly.

"I say, sooner or later you will suffer at the hands of a woman," said Yukino.

Having already suffered a loss once, Hachiman shook his head in his heart and changed the subject: "By the way, what did you mean by saying it might not be in Chiba?"

"Well, the Zunxing Cult in Chiba has almost stabilized, and the struggle in the Shinomiya family has begun to intensify. Instead of letting Yangyan play all day long with the title of councilor, it is better to let her take my shift and let mother handle the affairs of the councilor, so that I can have my hands free to help you." Yukino said with a smile.

"Ah!?" Hachiman couldn't help but shout out, it was... quite sudden.

Are the good days coming to an end?

Xueno smiled and said, "Hachiman-kun, are you touched?"

As your fiancée, I actually think about you like this.

"I dare not move." Hachiman said with a sad face.

Yukino gently poked Hachiman's heart with her finger and said, "Don't think I don't know what you are up to. Pay attention from now on."

In the past, although Kaguya was known as Hachiman's wife, she had no confidence to control Hachiman. But if Yukino went to Kyoto, his life would be difficult.

Is this the legendary married life?

..............................

It was late at night. In Shigong Huangguang's study, Shigong Masamune was dealing with a backlog of affairs. While his father was away in Japan, he was the "crown prince" in charge of regulating the country.

But soon, in a rage, he flipped the laptop on the table to the ground, and said with a look like a hungry wolf.

"A pack of white-eyed wolves."

Many officials who were originally in the Shinomiya family group have recently joined the Shijo family, with the shadow of the Tokyo Special Investigation Department lurking behind them.

The overly large and dominant Shinomiya family is not in the interests of some people, and the Shijo family is just a white glove used by those people to suppress the Shinomiya family.

It was for this reason that his father went abroad to seek opportunities. Originally, Shinomiya Masamune should have used this time to build people's hearts and strengthen his status as the crown prince.

However, because Sayoko asked him to divorce her, he became very angry recently. Several times, officials who should have been won over were scared away by his temper.

"Everyone get out," he shouted.

The servants and bodyguards left without saying a word, fearing that they would be implicated.

"Hey, cousin, why are you so interested so late at night?" A girl's voice said softly with a slightly mocking tone.

Shinomiya Masamune raised his head, a little confused: "Reiko? What are you doing here?"

As for my third uncle's daughter, she is usually weird and doesn't have much interaction with me as the legitimate heir.

But suddenly, he thought of something: "Hey Lingzi, you are very familiar with Sayoko, right? Why don't you go and tell her not to divorce me?"

But Shinomiya Reiko seemed to have heard a joke and said, "Brother Masamune, you are really funny. You obviously like Sayoko very much, but after marrying her you don't treat her well, beating her up all the time, and now she wants to divorce you and you start begging her. You are so ugly."

"What do you know..." Zhengzong shouted.

"It's just inferiority complex. You think that since you are sitting in a wheelchair, Sayoko doesn't look down on a useless person like you. You use violence to cover up your inferiority complex." Reiko kept adding fuel to the fire, as if she was deliberately trying to irritate him.

"You came here late at night just to humiliate me?" Shigong Masamune said gritting his teeth, with veins bulging on his forehead.

Reiko walked gently beside him and whispered, "No, I want to talk to you about you and your son, who killed Sayoko's parents and faked it as an accident."

Chapter 176 The Beginning of Revenge

"No, I want to talk to you about how you and your son killed Sayoko's parents and faked it as an accident."

Reiko spoke softly in Shinomiya Masamune's ear. In the dim light, her eyes looked particularly clear.

Shigong Masamune's eyes widened, as if his deepest fear had been revealed, and he subconsciously said, "What are you talking about?"

Reiko slowly left Masamune, raised her hands, and said, "Whether I was talking nonsense or not, Sayoko's uncle and aunt can fully testify to it. No, it should be said that Sayoko is still alive because of your lustful thoughts. Originally, the uncle planned to kill the three members of the Isoyama family including Sayoko, but because of you, in the end only the Isoyama couple had an accident. As for Sayoko, you threatened her uncle and aunt to create the illusion of seizing the family property, and then you came out to save the beauty..."

At this point, Reiko clapped her hands gently and said loudly, "You are worthy of being the legitimate heir of the Shinomiya family. You murdered people for money and made the victim's woman marry you out of gratitude. Unfortunately, the only thing you miscalculated was your masculine charm... A man without any skills is still a little lacking after all."

Reiko seemed to be deliberately trying to provoke Masamune, using extremely harsh and sarcastic words, and poking at Shinomiya Masamune's sensitive points everywhere.

If it were the servants and bodyguards below, if they dared to kick these places, they would probably be sunk into Tokyo Bay the next night.

But her last name is also Shigong.

Shinomiya Masamune's eyes seemed to kill him, and he said, "Do you think Sayoko will believe your nonsense?"

Lingzi laughed and said, "Why don't you believe it? If I hadn't found Sayoko's uncle and aunt, do you think I would say this to you? What do you think is the relationship between Sayoko and me? The weight of me and her uncle and aunt combined, can you, a man despised by Sayoko, compare to that of you?"

As if that wasn't enough, Reiko said to Masamune, "Originally, Sayoko had almost thrown herself into the arms of that man named Hikigaya Hachiman. If she knew the truth about her parents' death, what do you think she would do... I'm really looking forward to seeing Sayoko enjoying herself under another man. I can join in and take a video for you. You haven't seen Sayoko like that, right? Aren't you curious?"

Shinomiya Masamune suddenly pulled up the crutches on his wheelchair and whipped Reiko, but she held on firmly: "Don't think I'm Sayoko and I'll let you bully me, trash."

With a gentle push, the wheelchair crashed into the wall. Immediately, the bodyguards rushed in, but Shigong Masamune yelled at them, "Get out! Who let you in?"

The dusty bodyguard ran back silently.

Shigong Masamune's heart was broken, and the gloom on his face seemed to be dripping with water. He said, "Tell me your conditions. Did you come here just to humiliate me?"

Reiko took a deep breath. Yes, in Shinomiya Masamune's opinion, she really had no reason to do so. The world is bustling with people because of profit, and the world is bustling with people because of profit. This is the qualified Shinomiya way of thinking.

She clapped her hands gently and said, "Smart, you are worthy of being my cousin and the heir of the Shinomiya family."

Shinomiya Masamune snorted softly. There was really nothing surprising about it.

Reiko smiled and said, "My conditions are also very simple... let me be the next head of the Shinomiya family."

Shinomiya Masamune seemed to not believe his ears and said, "Are you kidding me? How can I agree to you?"

"Ah, is this all your love for Sayoko? You're not even willing to give up the position of head of the family?" Lingzi teased.

"This is not the case, you are just wishful thinking!" Shigong Masamune roared.

Then Shinomiya Reiko's smile slowly faded and she said, "Of course I was just joking."

"If you want to make conditions, do it quickly." Shigong Masamune said impatiently.

“Of course I was just joking when I said I was the head of the family. So, my purpose is really just to humiliate you, you self-righteous piece of trash. Hahahahahahahahahahaha.”

Shinomiya Reiko laughed out loud, even more exaggeratedly than before, and finally even tears came out. Shinomiya Masamune's face became increasingly uglier.

Reiko turned around and said, "I'm going to go find Sayoko now and tell her everything. You don't stand a chance, cousin."

Shigong Masamune tried to move the wheelchair, but his body suddenly fell to the ground: "Reiko! Do you know what the consequences will be if you disobey me like this? What impact will it have on Shigong Yunying?"

When Lingzi was at the door, she turned around and said with a smile: "Don't you dare to kill me?"

In one sentence, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point.

Something was brewing in Shinomiya Masamune's eyes, something cold.

...........................

After seeing Hachiman off, Sayoko sighed softly to the sky. It wasn't because she was depressed about something. Being cautious in front of others was an instinct rooted in her.

She always looks at people's faces and lowers her head habitually. Since childhood, she has been regarded as an introverted child by her parents.

That's why she thinks Lady Yukino is so shining, so confident and free and easy, and she has been in love with Hachiman-kun since high school. It can be seen that the president really values ​​Lady Yukino very much, and there is a discouraging fact that she is not at all comparable to the position of Lady Yukino in his heart.

She is not good at fighting with others, so she just buries her depression in her heart and breathes out softly.

"What's wrong? It's late at night and you look so bitter." A clear female voice sounded beside her.

Sayoko turned around in surprise, and was pleasantly surprised to see Reiko standing behind her.

"Lingzi, why are you here?" There was a hint of joy in his tone.

"Even though you don't remember much, I'm still a student after all, and there are quite a lot of cram schools around here." Lingzi stroked her hair gently.

"After all, Reiko, your academic performance is much better than mine." Although she looks like a little gangster, Reiko is very smart. In comparison, Sayoko herself is quite ordinary except for her appearance, and she attends an ordinary girls' high school.

"Your flattery is meaningless. My uncle brought me home to raise me because you were too stupid." Lingzi said with some disdain.

Although she knew Reiko was joking, Sayoko couldn't help but pout. She was obviously older, but she was suppressed by this strong girl in every way.

"She was so cute when she was little," she murmured.

"Ha, what did you say?" Lingzi said a little unhappily.

Sayoko quickly shook her head, and then felt regretful for her own uselessness.

"Are you going to be a slave to that man named Hikigaya again today?" Reiko asked.
