Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

"Well, then leave it to me." Hachiman smiled more relaxedly.

Seeing that he seemed to have recovered some of his energy, Qianzuru felt a little happier.

"Actually, when I saw Miss Chizuru, I remembered Yukino back then." Hachiman smiled awkwardly, and then suddenly said.

But Chizuru suddenly frowned and said, "Mr. Hikigaya, are you trying to seduce me?"

Hachiman immediately panicked and said quickly: "No, that's not what I meant. I mean, Ms. Chizuru is just like Yukino back then. They are both girls who are cold on the outside but warm on the inside."

Suddenly, Chizuru burst into laughter. She was just trying to scare Hachiman.

Seeing Chizuru smile, Hachiman was relieved. Chizuru thought about it and said, "That must be a very beautiful memory."

Chizuru saw Hachiman looking at the wedding ring in his hand with a gentle look. For Hachiman, it was a memory of youth, love, ideals, and passion, Chizuru thought.

Even though it has been shattered into pieces by reality, the fragments are still worth cherishing.

"What about you, Miss Chizuru?" Hachiman suddenly raised his head and asked.

"Me?" Chizuru asked.

"Ms. Chizuru, do you have someone like this to share your beautiful memories with?" Hachiman asked.

Chizuru paused, then said, "Well, that was someone who looked a bit like you, Mr. Hikigaya."

"Eh, an uncle like me?" Hachiman said in surprise.

"No, he's someone like Mr. Hikigaya who can think of others," Chizuru explained.

"Ahahaha." Hachiman smiled with some happiness.

"But he is decisively different from you, Mr. Hikigaya."

"Hey, what?"

Chizuru showed a playful expression: "That's because he is different from Mr. Hikigaya. He is still very young."

Being young means youth, passion and endless possibilities, which are what Hachiman once had but has now lost.

Hachiman immediately showed a hurt expression: "Can I smoke?"

"No——" Qianzuru blinked and giggled like a little hamster.

Hachiman couldn't help but laugh, but there was still a hint of gloom in his expression.

Chizuru stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

It’s almost time, so I go to the bathroom to touch up my makeup.

Then she waited for Kazuya-kun to ask her out. She was quite looking forward to today.

Before, their relationship had always been at the stage where they were more than friends but had not yet confessed their love. I guess they can get over that today.

However, seeing that Mr. Hikigaya's condition was still a little unstable, she was a little worried.

Hachiman watched Chizuru leave, then refilled his glass of water under the waiter's contemptuous gaze, and without any regard for Chizuru's previous ban, he lightly lit a cigarette.

The eyes gradually became sharper from those of the useless and frustrated man.

Well, although I have initially gained Chizuru Mizuhara's favor, it is still a long way to go before she will hug me voluntarily.

Sure enough, the test given by Kaguya is not so easy to complete.

It still requires some opportunity, Hachiman thought.

At this moment, three young men walked past Hachiman and sat in the seat behind Hachiman.

Hachiman continued to think, but suddenly he felt like he had run out of ideas.

He took a puff of his cigarette and heard the boy behind him boasting to his friends: "I'm not kidding you, my girlfriend has a big butt and big breasts, and she has a really great figure."

The young man seemed very proud, but was booed by his companions: "Come on, Kazuya, if you could really find a girlfriend like this you wouldn't have been single with us for so many years."

"Kibe, seriously, I'm not lying to you. I'm going to ask her out to the hotel tonight. Hehe, after this Christmas Eve, I'll be different from you virgins. I'll take pictures and show you guys then." The boy boasted, and was greeted with boos from his companions.

Hachiman smiled faintly. It was normal for a young boy to show off his new girlfriend to his friends. Hachiman didn't hate such immaturity. It even made him miss the days when he was dating Yukino. But he didn't have a friend to brag to at that time.

Not long after, Chizuru came back, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Um, Mr. Hikigaya."

A subtle expression appeared on Hachiman's face. Oops, this was her farewell.

Just as Hachiman was thinking this, the next moment, a figure appeared in front of him. For some reason, he looked angry, and then he punched Hachiman in the face.

"asshole."

The pain came immediately, and the angry voice was the same as the boy who had boasted just now.

"Kazuya-kun?" Hachiman heard Chizuru's panicked voice.

After being stunned for a moment, Hachiman stood up and felt something hot flowing out of his nose. Hachiman touched it and saw a trace of bright red blood on his hand.

Looking at the other person's angry expression, Hachiman smiled, and the next moment, he punched the boy hard, knocking him to the ground.

Different from the random fists of boys, Hachiman's fists, which are fully trained and have better knowledge of force techniques, are obviously more powerful.

After knocking the boy down unexpectedly, Hachiman did not stop. Instead, he rode on the boy and, as if he had lost control of his emotions, punched the boy's originally unremarkable face left and right.

"Yukino!"

“Why did you leave me!”

"Ahhh!"

Hachiman shouted in an excited tone as he beat up the boy.

Chizuru, who was a beat slower, realized at this time that Hachiman's smile was just a cover-up of his sadness. At this moment, he was punched by Kazuya-kun. Instead, his emotions gradually collapsed, and he even used Kazuya-kun as an object to vent his anger.

For a moment, the restaurant was in chaos.

Chapter 11: How much money he gives you, I will give you twice as much!

If you see people fighting in a restaurant, there will naturally be a bunch of onlookers watching.

But if you want to talk about a fight, it should be a back-and-forth fight, but now it is clearly one-sided, with one person pinning another person to the ground and beating him, while shouting something inexplicable and very excited.

"Yukino, Yukino, how can I live without you!" Hachiman howled while waving his fists.

The boy who was under him and was receiving the heavy punch was completely stunned. Although he was the first to attack Hachiman, he did not expect such a strong counterattack from the opponent. The boy who had no fighting experience could only cover his head with his hands and take the beating.

At this moment, the boy's two friends and Mizuhara Chizuru, who had been just watching, finally realized that they had to break up the fight.

Chizuru hurriedly hugged Hachiman's back, but found that she couldn't pull him. This decadent man was stronger than he looked.

"Mr. Hikigaya, please stop hitting me. This is someone I know."

Hachiman realized it too late. He beat this guy just because he was the first to tease him, and he needed a breakthrough to keep Chizuru Mizuhara. He didn't expect that this boy actually knew Chizuru. At this time, he relaxed his strength, and Chizuru quickly pulled Hachiman to the back.

Because he had used up all his strength, Hachiman was able to feel the warmth from the girl. The boy's friends finally came to pull him up, but the boy looked really miserable after being beaten up by Hachiman.

Chizuru said worriedly, "Kazuya-kun, are you okay?"

The boy in front of her was none other than Chizuru's boyfriend-to-be, Kazuya Kinoshita.

Kinoshita Kazuya shouted excitedly: "Chizuru, why are you here with a man like this on Christmas Eve? Didn't you say you were busy during the day, busy with someone else?"

The boy said with a heartbroken look as if he had been betrayed.

The audience nearby watched with great interest, wondering if they were so lucky to witness a scene of a cheating couple?

Chizuru looked at the eyes of the audience around her and felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but she still patiently explained: "Kazuya-kun, what are you misunderstanding? This is my client, the client who rents a girlfriend."

Chizuru was inevitably embarrassed to reveal her part-time job in front of so many people, but she still tried hard to explain.

"how come"

Kazuya had a surprised expression on his face. He had just finished bragging about his girlfriend to his friends, and then he saw his "girlfriend" talking and laughing with a strange man in the restaurant. The young man's blood instantly boiled over, and when he came to his senses, he had already attacked the man, but he didn't think about his girlfriend's occupation.

Although he knew that Chizuru was a rental girlfriend in the past, the people she dated were all himself. Kazuya never considered that since she was a rental girlfriend, if she was rented by him, she could naturally be rented by others.

"Kazuya, is this your girlfriend?" said Kibe, his good friend standing by in surprise.

Perhaps Kibe's words were just unintentional, but they deeply hurt the boy's heart, who was at the peak of his self-esteem.

He had just boasted to them about his girlfriend, but now his girlfriend is with someone else, and he was even beaten up by the other person for no reason.

Kazuya's face turned red with shame and anger. He endured the pain on his face, then stepped forward and grabbed Chizuru's hand, saying, "Don't accompany this man anymore. Come with me, Chizuru."

Qianhe saw the excited boy and felt a little aggrieved and reluctant, so she said, "But this is my job, can I come find you later?"

But at this time, Kinoshita Kazuya could no longer listen to the girl's explanation and shouted excitedly: "How much money he gave you, can I give you twice as much?!"

As soon as Kazuya finished shouting this, he subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and suddenly, the air became a little stagnant.

When he looked at Chizuru's expression again, he found that she looked very hurt and struggled to break free from his hand.

"What do you think of me! Kazuya-kun, if it weren't for this job, would I have met you? What do you mean by saying this now?"

Chizuru felt greatly insulted by Kazuya's words, as if she was some kind of prostitute. Although he knew that Kazuya was just shouting out in a fit of rage, he still felt uncomfortable.

Kazuya was at a loss as to what to do because of what he said wrong, but he still wanted to pull Chizuru away from here first. As long as he explained it carefully, Chizuru would definitely understand and they just needed to leave this bastard man.

Kazuya reached out his hand again, but this time, he was slapped away. At this time, Hachiman, who had been silent and holding his nose with a tissue to stop the bleeding, said: "Don't force girls to do things they don't want to do. Didn't anyone teach you this?"

Hachiman's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Kinoshita Kazuya.

"I"

At this time, Chizuru calmed down a little and said, "Kazuya-kun, go to the hospital to check your wound first. Can you two take Kazuya-kun to the hospital, please?"

The two friends next to Kazuya, especially Kibe, pressed Kazuya's shoulders and said, "Kazuya, go and heal your wounds first, don't make a big deal out of it. If Shuchiin knows that you had a fight with others, it will be troublesome."

Although he was very unwilling, Kazuya finally nodded and said, "I understand."

Kazuya raised his head and looked at Hachiman beside Chizuru, who was still full of hostility, and then looked at Chizuru motionlessly.

Chizuru sighed and said, "Kazuya-kun, you should go back first. We can find some time to talk about this."

In the end, Kazuya gritted his teeth and nodded, then turned around. Originally, he had planned to confess to Chizuru today and make their ambiguous relationship clear, but now, many variables had arisen.

Seeing Kazuya leaving, Chizuru finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Kazuya-kun, you must go to the hospital to heal your wounds."

After all, she was still worried about his injury. Hearing these caring words, Kazuya's expression looked better.

Chizuru just watched him leave. Originally, she had planned to let Kazuya clarify their relationship after work was finished today.

But now, she found that Kazuya didn't seem to be able to accept her job of renting a girlfriend.

It was obvious that he and I met through renting a girlfriend, and he had ordered me many times.

Originally, she thought that the other party had fully accepted the nature of her job, but today it seems that there is still a communication gap between them.

It seems that today's date is ruined.

At this time, Hachiman said a little embarrassedly: "Should I apologize to you now? It seems that I accidentally hurt your friend."

Chizuru looked at Hachiman whose blood had soaked half of the toilet paper red, shook her head and said, "It was Kazuya-kun who started it."

Looking at the time on the watch, it was already past five o'clock. She had clearly said that it had to be finished before five o'clock.

"Besides, the reason has nothing to do with you, Mr. Hikigaya. It's a problem between me and Kazuya-kun."

The girl just shook her head sadly.

Chapter 12 I can't let Chizuru be with him

For a moment, Chizuru didn't want to mention Kazuya in front of Hachiman anymore, as she always felt it was a little strange.

"Mr. Hikigaya, is there anything wrong with your nose?" Chizuru asked with some concern. Kazuya's punch just now was quite powerful.

Hachiman took the fingers covering his nose away and said, "The bleeding has stopped, so there shouldn't be any disfigurement."

Chizuru took a quick look and found that he was fine except for his red nose, which made her feel relieved. If Kazuya-kun caused any problems to Hikigaya-san, she would be guilty.

Suddenly, Chizuru, with a mischievous attitude, gently touched the injured part of Hachiman's nose.

Hachiman twitched with a start and said, "Hiss, it hurts."

"Hahaha." Qianzuru laughed twice, but the smile quickly disappeared and her face turned stern.

"Mr. Hikigaya, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?" Chizuru asked.

After all, she saw how Hachiman lost control of his emotions just now.

Beating Kazuya just now was obviously a way to vent the negative emotions that had accumulated today.
