Yumiko opened her eyes wide: "How did you know?"

"I, I saw him today!" There was something wrong with Jicai's voice.

"Where?" Yumiko grabbed her arm tightly.

Hime felt pain for a moment, but she didn't care and said with some trembling: "Yukinoshita Building."

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

Ye Shan hurried back to the headquarters on the tenth floor of the building.

When an employee saw him coming back, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Manager Ye Shan, aren't you having dinner with a client today?"

"Well, the schedule has changed temporarily. Is Ms. Haruno in the president's office?" Hayato asked.

"They're here, but there are others..." But before the employee could finish his words, Ye Shan had already walked in quickly. He didn't even knock on the door, but opened it directly. He saw Hachiman sitting in the president's chair, and Yang No was behind him like a secretary, half hunched over, with her hands in front of him and her cheek pressed against his.

Well, playing Minesweeper.

"Ah, Hayato is back. Isn't he meeting someone from Mitsui Real Estate today?"

Suddenly, Ye Shan's expression became very strange, a little twisted, and a little painful.

"As expected, I still can't beat you, Hikigaya-kun."

It can be said that everyone present knew who Ye Shan liked, but as for the woman Yang No, there was no way to guess using common sense.

"Hayato-kun, come and help us choose a wedding dress. Hikigaya-kun and I are getting married." Yangno said with a smile.

Even Ye Shan couldn't have expected this result. He suddenly raised his head, looked at Hachiman and asked, "You want to marry Miss Haruno? But what about Yumiko? Does she already know?"

Hachiman turned his gaze from the computer to Ye Shan and said, "I think you are the least qualified to ask this question, Ye Shan?"

You did the same thing back then. Ye Shan said excitedly, "It was because I felt sorry for Yumiko that I placed my hopes on you, but you..."

"Don't have any strange expectations of me without your permission." Hachiman slowly stood up and gently pushed Haruno away.

"You bastard!" Ye Shan punched Hachiman hard on the face, and Hachiman hit him in the face with a hook.

"Enough, Hayato, you should go back today." Yono, who was standing aside, came out and calmly stopped their fight.

Yeshan's eyes were red, and he didn't know whether it was for himself, for Yumiko, or for Hachiman.

Ye Shan exhaled and said, "Hikigaya-kun, do you really think this is okay?"

"Hayato, go back!" Yang No shouted.

Ye Shan gritted his teeth, turned and left the president's office. Yang No took out a tissue and gently wiped the corners of his mouth and asked.

"So, what are you going to do with Miura Yumiko? I can be the bad guy."

Hachiman shook his head and said, "I'm ready. I'll end it myself."

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

Yumiko and Himena rushed to the Yukinoshita Building. Himena originally asked if she wanted to bring a frying pan to catch the adulterer, but Yumiko refused and then took a kitchen knife and went out.

Hime pulled Yumiko's shoulder and said, "I say, this is the enemy's base camp."

"What are you afraid of? I'm a famous host. I'll expose that couple." Youmiko shouted with no confidence.

"I say, a famous host like you will at most be made into a porn star in anime." Hime said, scratching her ear.

Yumiko glared at her and decided not to wait any longer. She walked into the building and asked several people before finding out that Yukinoshita Haruno's headquarters was on the tenth floor.

But just now when he was downstairs in the elevator, he saw Hayato coming out with blood on his lips.

When Hayama met Yumiko, he was also very surprised, and then he just said: "Hikigaya-kun is on top, you should be prepared."

He left here in a hurry.

The itinerary, which was originally a joke, became less "fun" after Ye Shan made the news clear.

"Hikigaya-kun is definitely not that kind of person!" But Yumiko couldn't even say such words to comfort herself, because she didn't seem to know clearly enough what kind of person Hachiman was.

Yumiko found that her impression of the man, whom she had been living with day and night, had suddenly become blurred.

"Let's go." She pursed her lips, took Ji Cai to the elevator, went to the tenth floor, asked the front desk, and then went to the president's office.

Youmiko pressed her heart and pushed the door open without knocking.

Just then, I saw Yukinoshita Haruno's lips coming down from Hachiman's lips, and there seemed to be a little red.

Yumiko wanted to laugh, thinking that something must have gone wrong, so she took out a kitchen knife from her bag and said, "Hikigaya-kun, I just joked with Hime that if you cheat on me, I will kill you with this kitchen knife."

Hachiman stretched out the ring finger of his right hand, on which was a silver-white ring. He said, "Yumiko, I'm getting married."

Chapter 36 Chapter

"Yumiko, I'm getting married." Hachiman said in a calm tone, as if he was talking to her about what we were going to eat tonight.

He is always like this, no matter what the situation is, he speaks in a slightly indifferent tone of a bystander.

To be honest, Yumiko usually felt that this somewhat "arrogant" attitude was a bit handsome, but now, she felt that her heart was made of glass, and it was being beaten little by little.

"No, you're kidding me. If you come home with me now, I can pretend nothing happened." Yumiko raised the kitchen knife with some trembling in her right hand.

Why are all of you men like this, one after another, one turns around and asks me to get married, and the other turns around and asks me to get married.

Do I really have no charm at all for you to choose?

Hachiman slowly walked up to Yumiko, gently pushed away the kitchen knife with his hand, and said.

"I gave you a choice, Yumiko."

"I said, I want to travel with you and ask you to give up the new variety show, so that Miss Yang Noi can't grasp your weakness, but you..."

Hachiman looked at the girl with pity: "You always think that as long as you work hard, you can overcome obstacles, just like the heroine in the morning drama..."

"In fact, you have noticed it yourself, right? There is no such a coincidence in the cursed crew, but you just don't say anything, as if all this is really an accident that happened by chance, and you have been running around all the time."

"But have you ever considered my feelings? I hate the feeling of causing others to suffer because of me. The harder you try, the more painful it will be for me."

"I ask you again, give up. If you give up now, although the loss will be great, Miss Yang Nai will not be able to affect us."

"Oh, but you have already shouldered the responsibility, and it is difficult to back down."

"When you rejected me twice, it was inevitable that I would be standing here, Yumiko."

Yumiko's teeth were chattering. Hachiman had never taken the initiative to interfere with her career, so when he asked her to give up her new career under the pretext of traveling, Yumiko actually had a vague idea of ​​it, but she was unwilling to accept it, because that plan was the result of her cooperation with Hachiman, and she wanted to move forward with it.

She tried her best to pretend that those accidents were accidents and she didn't even mention them to Hachiman once. But she forgot that this guy was sometimes so smart that it was scary, so how could she not see it.

"It was you who betrayed me, why do you act like I was the one who did something wrong?!" Yumiko screamed and began to break down emotionally.

Hachiman held the kitchen knife, then pulled it out and said softly, "Then I'll give you a choice, Yumiko."

The voice that usually sounded comfortable but now sounded hateful to Yumiko continued.

"Now, I can go home with you and sever my relationship with Ms. Yang No. In exchange, you have to give up your current variety show department. If you just want money and fame, you just have to believe me. I will give you the same level in three years."

His heart-shaking voice urged, "Then make your choice, Yumiko."

"Do you want me or your current career?"

Yumiko couldn't help but bend her waist, as if she wanted to cover her ears. She looked at Hachiman with a change in her eyes: "Don't you understand what this career means to me during the time you've been with me?"

"Do you think I only want money or status?"

Yumiko questioned loudly. Yes, money and status were indeed the results of her hard work so far. However, the positions of host and the new variety show director more importantly represented her own value. She found her own self in her work that was not dependent on anyone. So when Hayato "abandoned" her, although she was sad, she could still face it calmly.

Because she doesn't live for a man.

"Don't force me to hate you, okay, Hikigaya!?" Crystal clear liquid gradually flowed out of her eyes, and her tone was both struggling and bitter.

She carries the responsibilities and hopes of others on her shoulders. Just as Hachiman cannot bear to see others suffer misfortune because of him, Yumiko cannot bear to disappoint the expectations of others who trust her.

However, the man still cruelly pronounced: "So, do you want me, or your current career?"

Yumiko slowly retreated, and the choice between the two poles on the scale continued to tear at her heart.

She recalled the time they met again, when the man invited her to squat down and enjoy the ordinary rainy scene. She recalled that after his encouragement, she learned to discover the surprises in life besides work, perhaps a bowl of ramen with tender pork, or a rare four-leaf clover on the roadside. She recalled his back as he cooked every day, the tenderness and passion when he caressed her, and the way he was angry for her in the swimming pool...

But now, those ordinary happy scenes have gradually turned into bubbles, as if they had never existed.

Perhaps she didn't know this man as well as she thought.

"It's a pity for me, Yumiko, that you finally chose your own career." Hachiman said lightly.

Yumiko raised her head angrily, just like a couple who go from loving each other to hating each other in an instant after breaking up: "Do you think that just saying break up makes everything clear? Did I get screwed for nothing? You're staying at my house? My parents have already met you!"

Hachiman shook his head and said, "It's very simple. I just need to return it to you."

Then he pulled a small knife out of his pocket and stabbed it into his other hand, piercing it through.

"No!" Yumiko burst into tears, her nose felt sore, and she rushed over to hold Hachiman's hand.

Hachiman's forehead was covered with sweat, veins on his temples bulged, and his breathing became rapid. He looked at Yumiko and said, "Actually... it's not... enough, there are still two more. As long as you can feel... pleasure, it's fine..."

Yumiko looked at her bloody hands and tried to make a sound, but found that her vocal cords were dry and stiff.

She slowly stepped back, threw a box out of her pocket, and whispered, "Hikigaya Hachiman, from today on, we are done with each other..."

Hachiman subconsciously took the thing, it was a box of smoking cessation candy.

She is so kind that people would call her an idiot.

He watched Yumiko gradually walk away, and Yangno walked up to him, carefully pulled out a knife and helped him bandage his wound.

Hachiman said without seeming to have any emotion: "Next I will help you take the position of Chiba Governor."

"Hey, but didn't I say I gave up for you?" Yang Nai asked.

"Now that I'm back, it doesn't matter whether I give up or not. This is very important after all."

After he finished speaking, he threw the smoking cessation candy into the trash can and lit a cigarette.

He was still as indifferent as ever.

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

When Yumiko came to her senses, she had already walked out of the Yukinoshita Building. In front of her, Hina Ebina was standing there.

"Yumiko..." she called out in a slightly sad voice.

Yumiko lost control of her emotions in an instant. She rushed forward to hug Hime, letting her pent-up emotions release wantonly. The tears in her eyes were like raindrops, constantly wetting her clothes.

By the time they returned to the apartment, they didn't know how much time had passed and Yumiko's eyes were swollen like walnuts.

"I'm moving tomorrow." Yumiko said in a tone that had not yet completely calmed down.

She doesn't want to live here anymore.

"Well, you can live with me first." Ji Cai said gently.

"By the way, you haven't eaten yet, I'll get you something...what should I eat?" Ji Cai said with some concern.

Yumiko shook her head, walked into the kitchen, and picked up the grilled steak on the table. Although it had been thawed, it had not been heated.

Yumiko took it to the table and picked up a piece of cold beef. The cold fat made her feel nauseous when she touched it, but Yumiko endured it and chewed it slowly, then swallowed it, one piece at a time.

"Spring has hundreds of flowers, autumn has the moon, summer has cool breezes, and winter has snow. If you have nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world. Together, it is the wind, flowers, snow, and moon."

"I prefer the last two lines: 'If you have nothing to worry about, then this is a good time in the world.'"

"The wind in Xiaguan, the flowers in Shangguan, the snow on Cangshan Mountain, and the moon on Erhai Lake, all together they represent the beauty of wind, flowers, snow, and the moon."

"What a beautiful scene. I can almost imagine it with my eyes closed. If I have the chance, I really want to see it with my own eyes."

"Why don't we go on a trip, let's go to this place."

Chapter 37 Chapter

From summer to autumn, and autumn to winter, the cold wind turns the originally green leaves into dry colors. Not many people dare to stroll on the bleak streets in such weather. The cold wave that occurs once in a decade adds a bit of cold and lonely atmosphere to the city.

In the corridor of the TV station, young people wrapped tightly in cotton coats were hurrying to the filming location, and passers-by were heard whispering during the process.

"Have you heard? The ratings for the third episode of Sisters are out. It's 15.4%! Even the station manager was shocked."

"Wow, that's amazing. I never thought our crappy TV station could produce a show with a 10% viewership."

The young man felt somewhat proud and could not help but slow down his pace and continue to listen to the conversation between the two.

"It's not that our station is so powerful, it's that Miss Miura is so powerful. Even the station director can't do anything to her."

"I think what's even more amazing is that she still continues to host the news. Doesn't she need to sleep? Doesn't she have a life after get off work?"
