In the end, Yukino got into the car with Haruno and returned to the Yukinoshita household together.
Watching the black car gradually disappear into the distance, Hachiman withdrew his gaze.
Although it was a brief parting with Yukino, he believed that with his words just now, she would soon reappear before him.
"Well, let's head back too," Hachiman said to the people beside him.
"Yeah."
...
After bidding farewell to Saika, Saeko, and Kotonoha, only Hachiman, Komachi, and Yui remained walking on the road.
Watching Hachiman and Yui beside her, Komachi's eyes flickered, seemingly thinking of sothing.
"Oh dear, Onii-chan, I need to go ho to check on Kamakura. I haven't taken care of it these past few days. I wonder if it scratched the sofa."
"That's fine, just go ahead. You and Yui-neesan can go shopping," she said, not giving them a chance to respond before swiftly running off.
Watching Komachi's retreating figure, Hachiman smirked.
He knew exactly what that little mischief maker was up to—just trying to give him and Yui a bit more ti alone.
Your intentions are way too obvious, even the clueless next to us can see it.
"Hikki..."
A soft voice sounded in his ears, and when he turned to look, he saw Yui blushing slightly as she gazed at him.
With a smile on his face, Hachiman reached out and gently held her hand.
"Let's go, we'll go shopping together."
"Yeah." Yui nodded, allowing him to hold her hand.
Walking together on the road, feeling the warmth in their palms, Yui couldn't help but feel a little happiness as she looked at Hachiman walking beside her.
It feels like it's been a long ti since we walked together like this.
But then, she rembered Yukino being taken away, and a hint of worry crept onto her face.
"Hikki, is Yukinon okay?"
Being good at reading between the lines, she could naturally tell from Yukino's resistance when Haruno ntioned "going ho."
"Don't worry, Yukino will just be ho for a couple of days, and she'll be back soon. After all, we're going to the beach together in a few days, right?" Hachiman smiled reassuringly.
He knew that the words he just said would definitely reach Mrs. Yukinoshita's ears through Haruno, so he believed that in a few days, Yukino would be "released" and return.
After all, he specifically ntioned the private beach of the Nakiri family. For a family like the Yukinoshitas, which isn't particularly large, having a relationship with a top-tier conglorate like the Nakiri family is definitely a rare opportunity.
He believed that Mrs. Yukinoshita would make the right choice.
Even without considering the Nakiri family, the current Hachiman was not soone the Yukinoshita family could underestimate.
Although his recent investnt seed to have consud all his funds, those shares would rapidly expand, becoming a behemoth in just a few years. Moreover, with the ans he currently possessed, accumulating wealth was an easy task.
The restaurant he cooperated with the Nakiri family was thriving. Catering exclusively to the upper class, for the wealthy, spending tens of thousands to millions on a al was nothing. So, just his monthly dividends alone amounted to two or three hundred million.
As for light novels, every new volu sold at least a million copies, and with Hachiman's current status as the "King of Light Novels," Kadokawa had raised his royalties to the highest industry standard, comparable to a certain old thief who went off to play mahjong.
Even to prevent him from leaving, Machida Sonoko, his editor, was willing to do anything to keep him tied to her as a cash cow.
Ahem...
As for Yui, after hearing Hachiman's words, her worries dissipated.
Because she believed that Hachiman wouldn't lie to her.
"Yui, how about having lunch at my place?" Looking at the girl beside him, Hachiman smiled and invited her.
Co to think of it, she seed to have never eaten at his house, being the first girl he had ever t.
"Huh? Eat at Hikki's place?" Yui was montarily surprised.
"Yeah, whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you." Hachiman's face showed a doting smile.
"I like you, Yui."
Hearing Hachiman's sudden confession, a blush appeared on Yui's face. Glancing around to make sure no one was passing by, she sighed in relief and responded with a hint of coyness.
"Geez... Hikki, why are you saying this all of a sudden, and here in the middle of the street?"
Seeing her looking guilty, Hachiman couldn't help but find it amusing.
Previously, you always complained that I didn't confess to you, but now that I have, you're the one who's feeling shy.
Seeing Yui's shy expression, Hachiman took a step forward, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and kissed her soft lips directly.
"Mmm..."
Yui was surprised by his sudden kiss at first, but soon she imrsed herself in it. Her hands instinctively wrapped around Hachiman's neck, her eyes closed, and her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
When Hachiman moved his lips away from Yui's rosy ones, a faint breath escaped her lips.
"Hoo... Hikki, you're really sothing, kissing out of the blue, and here we are on the street."
Although she spoke with a hint of coyness, Yui's face was flushed, and her eyes were sparkling with watery light.
"You're my girlfriend, Yui. I kiss you whenever I want," Hachiman chuckled.
"Hmph, who said I'm your girlfriend? I haven't agreed yet."
Hearing Hachiman's words, Yui huffed lightly, showing a hint of playful defiance.
"Oh, it seems one kiss isn't enough. You, silly Yui, dare to resist ."
Seeing Yui's reaction, Hachiman raised an eyebrow, then hugged her again, pretending to want to kiss her again.
Yui was naturally startled and quickly shook her head, "No, no, I'm sorry."
"Then what are you to ?" Hachiman asked knowingly.
"I'm... I'm your girlfriend," Yui answered shyly, burying her head in Hachiman's chest.
Hearing her answer, a smile appeared on Hachiman's lips, and he reached out to ruffle her hair bun.
"Yui, I will always love you."
"I will too, Hikki" Yui murmured softly as she nestled in his embrace.
Their bodies pressed tightly against each other, as if their heartbeats were intertwining.
Locking eyes with the girl whose eyes reflected his own, Hachiman's face softened into a gentle smile.
"Let's go ho, Yui."
"Yeah."
