Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

"Are you asking us to just let him go? I'm so pissed."

Kato Hui asked Saki: "Even if I give you a beating, if he begs you with soft words, can you promise that you won't forgive him?"

Kato Megumi immediately grasped the core of the problem, and then she looked at Rumi and asked, "If Mr. Hikigaya begged you with soft words, could you bear not to forgive him?"

"I..." I don't forgive, but Liumei couldn't say it for sure. She could even think that Hachiman would have many reasons to explain to her.

Isn't his unique skill to be eloquent?

"He is fearless." Kato Megumi said affirmatively.

"So it's useless for you to go find him. There's no way to teach him a painful lesson. Even if you beat him up, do you think he will care?" Kato Megumi looked at the two girls and analyzed, the person who understands you best is either your enemy or the person next to you.

"Then, what should we do?" Saki felt that what Kato Megumi said made sense, and even Rumi couldn't help but look at Kato Megumi.

Before they knew it, the three of them were led by Kato Megumi, who was the calmest and most analytical.

"We want to give him a painful and unforgettable lesson so that he won't think he can play with any girl. Do you agree?" Kato Megumi asked in a calm tone.

"agree."

"I agree, but how?"

the remaining two girls asked.

"First of all, of course, we should return the handkerchief to Mr. Hikigaya." Kato Megumi said softly, leaving the two girls a little confused.

Only her daughter Mei was screaming happily.

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

It was a chilly night in early spring. Hachiman let out a light breath and waited at the school gate. Soon, a young girl walked slowly on the wet school road towards him.

Kato Megumi walked up to Hachiman and said softly, "Good evening, Mr. Hikigaya."

But the next moment, Kato Megumi was pulled into Hachiman's arms and said, "Why are you wearing so little? Be careful not to catch a cold."

Then he used both of his hands to warm Kato Hui's slightly cold hands, and then he took something out of his arms and stuffed it into her hands, saying with a smile: "I just saw it for sale on the street, so I bought one, just right to warm my body."

Kato Megumi looked at the freshly baked sweet potato in her hand, which exuded a sweet smell that made her a little intoxicated. Kato Megumi narrowed her eyes slightly.

"What's the matter that you called me out so late?" Hachiman hugged the girl and tried his best to warm her.

"Well, the handkerchief, I want to return it to you." Kato Megumi took it out of her pocket.

Hachiman was stunned for a moment, as if he had forgotten about this thing. After hearing Kato Hui say that Mei took it to play with it, he didn't care and stuffed it into his pocket. Then he said, "Eat it quickly to warm yourself up and don't catch a cold."

Kato Megumi nodded gently, ate the sweet potatoes in small bites, and looking at his sincere and concerned smile, she couldn't help but gently stroke his cheek.

"What's wrong?" Hachiman asked.

Kato Hui gently left his arms, put the sweet potato in her pocket, then pulled his collar with her hand and said, "The collar is crooked, and people will laugh at you if they see it."

"Haha, I don't care." Hachiman said with a smile.

"Tomorrow is the entrance festival. I'm really looking forward to it. Can Mr. Hikigaya accompany me?" Kato Megumi asked.

"Okay, no problem." Hachiman didn't think there was anything strange about it. It was an expected itinerary.

Kato Megumi smiled faintly and straightened Hachiman's collar: "It's really exciting."

Hachiman said "ah" somewhat nonchalantly. After a while, Kato Megumi watched Hachiman leave.

"I'm really looking forward to it..."

Because she was really angry.

Chapter 22 Chapter

The next day, the originally peaceful Hitotsubashi University seemed to be boiling with excitement, as all students participated in the entrance ceremony. This can be regarded as a unique tradition of Hitotsubashi University, similar to the campus festival of high school. It is actually an activity to help freshmen integrate into the campus as quickly as possible.

The school is now full of people in strange costumes. The laboratory is decorated as a haunted house, the grass in the atrium has become a fashion show, the concrete road has been decorated into a long charcoal fire road, and even the playground is used for couples running games.

Each class puts on a program, and the numerous programs and ample funding ensure that Hitotsubashi University's entrance festival is far from comparable to those handicraft programs of high school students.

Hachiman was unusually uninterested in the youthful JD passing by, and was mentally thinking about today's schedule.

In the morning, I accompanied Liumei around the campus, in the afternoon, I played games with Saki, and in the evening, I spent time with Kato Megumi and her daughter. I arranged my time very well, but the tolerance rate is too low. If anything unexpected happens, it will be absolutely terrible. I have to be very alert today. However, if everything goes well, it will be really amazing for me to accompany three girls in one day.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Hachiman."

Just at this moment, Liu Mei came over in a hurry.

"You are five minutes late." He said pretending to be unhappy.

"Sorry, it took some time to change clothes." Liu Mei said apologetically.

Hachiman looked at Rumi and found that she was not dressed as usual. Instead, she was wearing a shiny golden evening gown and had heavier makeup on her cheeks than usual, making her look much more mature.

"You are..."

"Well, the class organized a fashion show and I have to participate too, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you in the morning." Liu Mei said with a hint of regret on her cheek.

"Why is this happening..." Hachiman said as if he was very disappointed.

And such good things?

If he doesn't have time to study in the United States, he will have a lot of room for maneuver.

"Don't be like this, at most I can treat you to breakfast." Rumi said while hugging Hachiman's wrist.

Hachiman looked very unhappy as he followed Rumei to the snack stand. The dishes were quite rich, including fried noodles, octopus balls, grilled sausages, oden, ramen and so on. Originally, Hachiman didn't care about having breakfast, but for some reason Rumei got crazy and ordered everything on the stall, so the table was full of food.

Hachiman was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you want to eat?"

"Of course you should eat. You will be very tired today, so of course you should eat more." Liu Mei said with a faint smile.

Death row prisoners also have their last meals to eat, so they must eat better before going on the road.

Hachiman had some question marks in his mind, as he felt like there was something else behind Rumei's words.

"If you don't finish eating, it means you don't want to forgive me." Liu Mei said with a straight face.

As if that unruly temper was about to break out, Hachiman was slightly surprised and said in a doting tone: "Thank you, Master Liumei, for giving us precious food."

Then he started to work on the table full of food, while Liu Mei ate the fried noodles in small bites.

In fact, she knew that her request was excessive, but the man still accepted it all, even if he was forcing himself.

He could tell that Hachiman was full when he had eaten two-thirds of the food, but he still stuffed it into his stomach.

This guy is really good to her, willing to pamper her unconditionally. It would be a lie to say that I am not touched, but...

Today's Tsurumi Rumi has no mercy.

"By the way, I have to participate in a stage play this afternoon, and I want Hachiman to go on stage with me."

With fried noodles on his lips and a slight discomfort in his stomach, Hachiman raised his head and said, "Stage play? But I haven't practiced it."

"It doesn't matter. It's called a stage play, but it's actually similar to a skit. Actors are hired temporarily and given a topic temporarily. Then the participants go on stage to perform. Even if they don't perform well, it can still create a comedic effect. I'm a little scared to go on stage alone, so..."

It's afternoon. Looks like I need to find an excuse to leave for a while while I'm with Shahi.

"No problem, just call me when the time comes." Hachiman said with assurance.

Liu Mei smiled sweetly and wiped the fried noodles from her mouth herself.

After Hachiman finally finished his food and burped, Rumi smiled and said, "I'm leaving now. Just walk around the campus in the morning and don't flirt with other girls."

"Understood!" Hachiman agreed readily.

Liu Mei then turned her back to Hachiman and left. She looked in the mirror and saw Hachiman immediately taking out his cell phone as if he was going to contact someone. She felt cold in her heart.

You bastard, if I can’t kill you today I’ll take your surname.

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

Hachiman paced back and forth, holding his belly. After a while, a heroic voice said beside him, "Hikigaya, how many months are you pregnant?"

The man rolled his eyes: "I am experiencing the pain you felt when you were pregnant with a heavy belly."

"What's the truth?"

"I'm full."

Hachiman rolled his eyes at Saki, causing Saki to laugh, and then asked casually, "Why did you go to eat before I even arrived? Do you have someone to keep you company?"

"How could that be? It was just that when I passed by the snack stand, the food smelled so good that I couldn't help but eat a little more." Hachiman said.

"Oh, I haven't had breakfast yet. I've been busy in class until now..."

Shaxi looked at the man's gradually pale face and teased: "Look at your expression, don't worry, I'm just joking."

Hachiman breathed a sigh of relief, but Sashi immediately took his hand and said, "Let's go, let's see if there are any interesting shows."

The two then began to wander around the campus, with Hachiman naturally wearing a mask and being teased by Saki.

After walking for a while, Hachiman felt that his stomach was finally comfortable, but he saw Saki stopped at the long charcoal fire road. When he saw those couples holding hands and running across the fire road with exciting smiles, he asked, "How about it, are you interested?"

"Hey, it is said that couples who walk across the fire road will be blessed and will never be separated." Shahi said as he looked at the introduction plaque.

Hachiman thought, how old are you and you still believe such stupid things? But for him, it is naturally an opportunity to enhance the relationship.

"Then let's go play." Hachiman said in a gentle voice.

Honest people are really easy to please.

"Really?" Shahi said in surprise.

"Really, really." Hachiman took the initiative to pull Saki to the charcoal fire road, where the black and red charcoal fire was steaming hot air.

Just as Hachiman was about to walk over holding Saki's hand, Saki next to him suddenly stopped him and whispered.

"But, Hikigaya, I heard that in order to show sincerity, you need to take off your shoes when walking on the fire road. Walking barefoot is pious."

? ?

Chapter 23 Chapter

"But, Hikigaya, I heard that in order to show sincerity, you need to take off your shoes when walking on the fire road. Walking barefoot is pious." Saki said softly.

Hachiman started to get a little confused, looking at other couples walking happily past, and they were all wearing shoes.

"But they..." Hachiman pointed at the other couples.

Sha Xi said calmly: "So they are just college lovers. Many of them just want the novelty and can't survive graduation. But I have loved you for more than eight years. The weight of this love cannot be compared to them anyway, right?"

"This does make sense, but..." He is not a god even if he goes down barefoot.

But today, Saki seemed to be angry. She calmly took off her shoes and casually placed them beside her. Then she looked at Hachiman and said, "My love for you is genuine and is no less than Yukinoshita's. I'm barefoot, so you can do whatever you want."

Some students nearby stepped forward to try to stop her, but Saki was not moved at all, as if she would carry out her idea to the end even if Hachiman was not accompanying her barefoot.

She is such a person, persistent to the point of stubbornness. With her fame and status, she can find a better man even if she gets rid of Hachiman's influence, but she is willing to be trapped by her amorous first love.

Even Hachiman's heart was stabbed deeply. He walked up slowly, half squatted like a knight, gently held her soft and boneless white feet, carefully put on her socks, and then put on her high boots.

After doing all this, Hachiman kicked off his shoes casually and said, "What are you talking about? It's just a fire road. I'll do it."

"Hikigaya..." Saki seemed very moved. Just when Hachiman was feeling proud, Saki suddenly jumped behind him.

???

"I heard that carrying a girl through fire shows more sincerity." Shahi whispered in his ear.

The students next to him started to make a noise and Hachiman took a deep breath. How come this was different from what he had imagined?

Shahi Shahi, don’t you feel sorry for your husband?

"After this is over, I will reward you well. You have always wanted to... I promise." Shahi continued to increase the stakes.

Hachiman suddenly straightened his back: "Damn it, done."

At worst, after running, I can go back to the hotel, apply some medicine, and rest for a few days.

He did it right away. Hachiman walked barefoot on the charcoal road holding Saki in his arms. The students next to him started to marvel at the ups and downs.

Feeling the scorching temperature under his feet and his skin that was about to be roasted, Hachiman knew that he couldn't take it slow, so he gritted his teeth and ran forward. The scorching temperature made his forehead sweat quickly, and Saki gently helped him wipe it off, but the soles of his feet felt like hell and he grimaced in pain.

"Hikigaya..." Saki pursed her lips, not knowing what emotion she was expressing.

The charcoal road was both long and short. It only took Hachiman about a minute to run over there quickly while holding a person.

After running across the charcoal fire road, Hachiman put Saki down and jumped in pain. The students next to him applauded. Some couples even blamed their partners for not having the same actions as others to express their love. This turned out to be a good way to show their affection.

"How is your foot? Do you want to go to the infirmary?" Shahi said softly.
