My fiancée Yukino

"Why is my priority so high?!"

Seeing Hachiman Hikigaya return, Hina Ebina smiled and said, "OK, you're here. Hikigaya-kun, I'll leave the pilot role to you! Don't worry, it's a very simple role. I'll explain to you in detail how to play it!"

"..."

Hachiman remained completely silent.

At this moment, Hayato Hayama also walked over with a wry smile, looked at Hachiman Hikigaya and said, "Well, I didn't expect that either. Let's all do our best."

"Heh...hehehe..."

Hachiman now feels that nothing matters anymore.

After the program and cast list were finalized, Luo Bai went to the Service Department, while Hachiman and Yui Hama went to attend the executive committee meeting.

Chisato Natsuyo didn't come today. She was taken by Rascal's parents and Shinobu Kocho to look at houses this morning.

After lunch, I posted a lot of photos of the house I was looking at in the group chat. I did find a nice villa, two adjacent ones that were already renovated, and the size was just right.

However, Luo Bai wasn't in a hurry. His parents still had a few villas to look at in the afternoon, and they would discuss and make a decision together in the evening after they had all seen them.

The three of them didn't stay in the service department for long. They finished their homework while enjoying the air conditioning and then left the school together.

On their way home, Luo Bai looked at Mai and asked, "Is there any work scheduled for these two months?"

"As for work, there is some, but not much. It's just shooting an advertisement and recording a TV program as a guest."

Mai pondered for a moment and said, "Besides, it's all work in October. I can focus on my studies in September and not think about those other things. Luo-kun, are you really not here for the cultural festival?"

Mai was still looking forward to the cultural festival together.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai said, "Well, it's really hard to say. The situation over there is still unknown. When Lucoa went there, she only got a general idea of ​​the situation and didn't know the specifics. To rescue those cursed children over there, we need to conduct thorough preliminary investigations. It will take at least three to five days, and it might take ten days to half a month. I'll try my best to come back before the cultural festival starts."

Mai nodded and said, "There's no need to rush. Your safety should be your priority."

Yukino, on the other side, also asked, "When you go there, will you bring Natsuyo along too?"

“We won’t take her,” Luo Bai said. “Let that child live a good life here and not go to that world. It’s not a good place anyway.”

Yukino thought that made sense, so she stayed here.

I'm doing just fine, there's no need to go back there and relive those bad memories.

A dozen minutes later, the three returned home. Mr. Luo and his family had also returned, bringing back a large amount of groceries.

"Dad, how did the afternoon go?"

"It's just so-so, not as nice as the two buildings I saw this morning."

Waving to the three of them, Mr. Luo said, "I've taken all the photos, come and take a look."

Luo Bai brought Yukino and Mai over, took Luo's father's phone, and looked at the photos of the villa that had been taken that afternoon.

Yukino leaned on Luo Bai's shoulder and said, "Yeah, it's definitely not as good as this morning. Although it's bigger, the decor doesn't quite meet our requirements. It's a bit too old-fashioned. If we really prioritize size, this decor would have to be completely torn down and rebuilt, which doesn't fit either."

Mai nodded in agreement: "Hmm... If we want to move in quickly, it needs to be properly renovated. The second one in the morning would be good."

Seeing that Luo Bai and the others preferred the second villa they saw that morning, Luo's father said with a smile, "Okay, then let's wait for Yang Nai to come back and take a look. If there are no problems, we'll go again tomorrow and basically finalize it. As for moving, just arrange for people; you don't need to wait until the weekend."

Volume 1: Chapter 326 Moving (2/2)

Before dinner, Yang Nai came home from get off work. After seeing the photos taken by Luo's father, she also felt that the villa they looked at in the morning was better.

So we made the decision. We'll make a phone call after dinner, and then we'll go sign the contract and pay tomorrow.

Shinobu Kocho brought her sisters over after hearing what their father, Rakan, had said.

So, are we moving soon?

Mr. Luo nodded with a smile: "Yes, I'll sign the contract tomorrow morning, and then I'll go look at some furniture and stuff in the afternoon. You can pick out what you like, and I'll order it and have it delivered. On Thursday, I'll arrange for someone to do a quick tidying up, and you can pack your bags in the evening. We can move in on Friday. Then, Xiaobai, you can come straight to your new home after school on Friday."

Luo's father planned to take care of everything, so the children wouldn't have to worry about it. They all had to go to school and work, unlike them who had everything arranged perfectly during this period.

After dinner, having decided to buy a house, Luo Bai and the others started looking at furniture.

Things like beds can be moved over from here, but since the villa has many rooms, we'll need to buy more. Especially for Shinobu, now that she has a new home, each of the sisters can have their own bedroom and more private space.

After looking around at the furniture, everyone chose their favorite desks and cabinets for their rooms. It took about an hour to order most of the items.

The delivery time is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.

After contacting the people, Mr. Luo looked at everyone and said, "Alright, in that case, Xiaobai, you guys come over after school tomorrow afternoon and choose your rooms."

“Okay, no problem.” Luo Bai nodded and looked at Yukino and Mai, saying, “Since Hikigaya and the others have to attend the executive committee meeting, let’s cancel the club activity tomorrow afternoon.”

"Yes, this arrangement will work."

Yukino was also looking forward to going to her new home tomorrow.

Sitting in Luo Bai's lap, Qian Shou Xia Shi looked at Luo Bai curiously: "Brother, are we really going to live in that big house from now on?"

Luo Bai smiled and patted Qian Shou Xia Shi's head: "Yeah, isn't it beautiful? How about I fill your room with all sorts of dolls?"

Chizu Natsuyo blinked her big eyes and nodded happily.

Yukino smiled and looked at Chizu Natsuyo, saying, "After we move to the new house, I'll take you to some of the big toy stores in Shijo on the weekend, and then to the arcade. We'll play the claw machine together. They recently got a new batch of toys, including a few new cat and panda plush toys that I want."

Before long, the two had finished discussing their plans to go out and have fun over the weekend, and also invited Kanao and the others to come along.

Yes, it wasn't called Luo Bai.

"Why don't you spend the weekend with Shiyu? She's been busy with the start of school and her novel these past few days and hasn't been saying much in the group chat."

Luo Bai smiled and nodded: "I understand, I'll go call her."

Luo Bai picked up Chizu Natsuyo and placed her on Yukino's lap, then took his phone and went to the room.

I dialed Shiyu's number, and after a few seconds the call connected, and Shiyu's voice came through.

"Luo Jun, why are you calling me now?"

"Are you very busy? I noticed you haven't even chosen any furniture yet, and you just asked me to help you pick it out."

"Yes, I'm a bit busy."

On the other end of the phone, Shiyu was in her bedroom, her laptop open, displaying the contents of a new volume of her novel.

"After submitting the outline for the new volume of the novel these past few days, Sister Yuanzi gave me a few points to revise. I'm thinking about them now, writing the beginning while thinking about them. I also need to discuss the manga with Eriri. Compared to that, school matters aren't so difficult. I've already self-studied most of the second-year high school material. Luo Jun, are we moving? It feels so fast. Uncle just went to look at houses this morning, and now we've already decided on one."

“Because it’s really nice, there’s not much to hesitate about,” Luo Bai said with a smile. “I’ve also chosen your furniture and reserved a room for you. But you don’t need to come to Chiba this weekend; I’ll come to Tokyo to see you.”

"Is Luo Jun coming to Tokyo?"

Shiyu was very happy to hear that Luo Bai was coming to Tokyo.

"Let's go on a date on Saturday. I'll postpone my manga discussion with Eriri until Sunday!"

Luo Bai smiled and said, "There's no rush about the comics, is there?"

"It's alright, it's alright. The progress is already quite ahead of schedule. This time, we mainly discussed the subsequent plot arrangements and the character designs for some new characters. Since Eriri isn't working with an assistant right now and is drawing by herself, I like to do things ahead of time."

"Okay, I'll come over on Saturday morning."

"Okay, it's settled then! We'll discuss the specific time on Friday. I'm going to tell Eriri about the time change now!"

"Okay, then don't stay up late tonight, get some rest early."

After finishing the call, Luo Bai left the bedroom and joined the others watching TV.

........

Over the next two days, Mr. Luo quickly took care of everything at the villa, and even arranged for furniture to be moved into everyone's rooms.

Then Friday came, and after school, it was time to go to the new house.

After packing his schoolbag, Luo Bai looked at Hachiman Hikigaya and Yui Yuigahama.

Are you going to a meeting today?

Hachiman Hikigaya nodded: "Yes, today we need to finalize some promotional matters and prepare for the stage setup."

Yui Yuigahama, who was standing next to her, also smiled and said, "Yeah, there's a lot to do, but it's okay. The student council president, Shiromai-senpai, is a very nice person and gave me a lot of advice!"

"Is it the third-year student, Shiromai Jun?"

After recalling for a moment, Luo Bai said, "When Yang Nai was still the student council president at Soubu High School, she seemed to be a member of the student council. The two knew each other; I've heard Yang Nai mention it. Hmm, I'll ask Yang Nai later. Given Yang Nai's personality, she should have some contact with the members of the student council back then. I'll have her call her senior and ask her to help you out."

With Luo Bai's words, Hachiman Hikigaya and Yui Yuigahama felt much more relaxed.

"This is a huge help."

Hachiman Hikigaya remarked with emotion, "I've never been this tired in my two years of high school, with both executive committee duties and musical rehearsals."

"It's a rare opportunity to participate in this kind of work, you should experience it too."

Picking up his backpack, Luo Bai patted Hachiman Hikigaya on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Then I'll be going now. Good luck to you guys."

After Luo Bai left the classroom, Yui Yuigahama looked at Hachiman Hikigaya and said energetically, "Let's go, Hachiman!"

Hachiman Hikigaya nodded and continued his painful journey.

Volume 1: Chapter 327 Barbecue Party (1/2)

As soon as I stepped out of the school gate, the car that Luo's father had arranged was already waiting there.

After the three got into the car, they drove directly to the villa area where their new home was located.

The environment here is very nice. It's located on the edge of Chiba City and not too far from the school. There's a bus stop nearby, and it takes about twenty minutes to get to the school, which is acceptable.

Moreover, it will be even more convenient once I get my driver's license, as the villa has several parking spaces.

Upon arriving at the villa area, the three of them stood before their new villa.

"This is our new home! It's huge!"

Mai happily said, "After I started earning a salary from acting, I thought about buying a big villa when I had more money. I never expected that I would achieve this now."

Luo Bai said with a smile, "Let's go, everyone else is home, Yang Nai is back too, we're the last ones."

Pushing open the front gate, the three entered the villa.

The lawn in the front yard is quite large, and there's also a parking area. There are two cars parked there now, one belonging to Luo's father and the other to Yang Nai.

Upon entering the house, the decor was also mainly modern, and the overall space was very bright, which was the style that Luo Bai and Xue Nai liked.

In the living room on the first floor, everyone was sitting together eating fruit and chatting happily.

Seeing Luo Bai and the others return, Yang Nai smiled and waved, "You're back? Come on in! We're planning to have a barbecue in the yard tonight to celebrate moving!"

"Barbecue, that's really good. This yard is really meant for parties."

Luo Bai walked over and sat down, and then Qian Shou Xia Shi got off Yang Nai's lap and came to Luo Bai's side.

He picked up the little girl and asked with a smile, "Do you like the new room?"

Chizu Natsume nodded happily: "Yes, I like it, and there's also a very big teddy bear!"

"is it?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai looked towards his parents.

Mrs. Luo said with a smile, "When I went out to buy groceries, I happened to see a fruit shop displaying this in its window, so I just bought it and put it in Xia Shi's room."

Yukino also said, "We'll buy some more for her room this weekend. Xia Shi's princess bed is quite big, so we can put more in it."

It's just that she and Luo Bai are sharing a room now; otherwise, Yukino would want to fill her room with all sorts of dolls.

After walking around for a while, the charcoal for the barbecue was ready, and it was time to start today's barbecue party.

Luo Bai followed her mother to the kitchen and took out all the various skewers that had been prepared in the afternoon, as well as large eggplants that had already been processed, and a large pile of seafood.

Watching the skewers gradually cook on the grill, Luo Bai asked Qian Shou Xia Shi, who was beside him, "Which one do you want to eat first?"

As he spoke, he picked her up.

Looking at the skewers, Chizu Natsume swallowed hard, then pointed to one of the skewers and said, "I want to eat beef."

"Okay, let's eat this first."

Take out the skewers that Chishou Natsuyo wanted to eat, then plate the rest and hand them to Mai. Luo Bai then coats the skewers with barbecue seasoning and puts them to Chishou Natsuyo's mouth.

"Be careful of the burn."
