[336] Sibling Heart-to-Heart

Chapter 336: Sibling Heart-to-Heart

"Alright, I've mastered the jet ski driving skills, who wants to go first?"

"Hikki, do you really know how to drive?"

Seeing Hachiman's confident expression, Yui's face revealed a hint of doubt.

Not only her, but even Yukino and Yumiko also seemed skeptical. After all, it had only been about ten minutes since he tried it.

Seeing Yui, this silly girl, doubting his skills, Hachiman couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He reached out and pinched her cheeks.

"You silly little thing, how dare you question me."

"Uh... Hikki, what are you suddenly doing? Let go quickly."

Startled by Hachiman suddenly pinching her cheeks, Yui was taken aback. Although it didn't hurt, being in front of so many people made her feel embarrassed.

Naturally, Hachiman wasn't actually angry. After feeling the soft texture of her cheeks, he let go.

"Who allowed you to doubt me, you silly little thing?"

Upon hearing his nickname for her, Yui pouted in dissatisfaction.

"My name is Yui Yuigahama, not some silly little thing."

"To me, you're just a silly little thing."

"I'm not!"

...

Watching the interaction between the two, the girls around them had different expressions.

Since they chose to come to the beach with Hachiman, they were mentally prepared. However, when they actually saw their crush flirting with other girls, they couldn't help but feel a bit uncomfortable.

This was true even for Yukino, although her feelings were more of envy.

However, there were exceptions, like Saeko.

As the first girl to support Hachiman's harem and even encourage it, she naturally didn't mind such trivial matters.

Except for Saeko, Vignette, and Gabriel, they were all equally indifferent.

Gabriel, the gaming addict, was currently only interested in games. As for love, what was that?

Innocent Vignette would probably just see it as playful banter between friends and wouldn't think much of it.

Even though Raphiel could sense the strange atmosphere between Hachiman and the girls, with her cunning personality, she wouldn't say anything. After all, isn't watching a battlefield more interesting?

As for Satania, well, she's just a fool...

Watching Hachiman and Yui flirting incessantly, Shizuka couldn't stand it any longer and coughed twice to get their attention.

*Cough, cough.*

Hearing Shizuka's cough, Yui finally realized and blushed, quickly hiding behind Yukino.

Seeing her reaction, Hachiman shrugged and turned to look at Komachi beside him.

"Since none of you believe me, Komachi, why don't you go first? Onii-chan will take you for a ride."

"Okay, thank you, Onii-chan."

Komachi still had a lot of trust in her older brother.

The siblings boarded the jet ski, and for safety reasons, Komachi nestled into Hachiman's embrace.

"Onii-chan, I'm ready."

"Mm."

As the engine roared to life, the jet ski sliced through the waves, leaving a trail of white foam behind as they sped away into the vast ocean.

Sitting in Hachiman's embrace, the gentle sea breeze whistled past their cheeks, driving away the summer heat and causing Komachi to close her eyes in comfort.

"It feels so nice, Onii-chan."

"Haha, told you it would." Hachiman chuckled.

Lifting her head to look at the smile on Hachiman's face, Komachi slowly leaned back into his embrace.

It had been a while since they had spent time alone together like this. The previous times they went out, it was always with their sisters.

As they nestled together, it felt like they could hear each other's heartbeat.

After a moment of silence, Komachi spoke up, "Onii-chan, I have a question for you, and you have to promise to always answer me honestly."

"Go ahead, Komachi, Onii-chan will never lie to you," Hachiman said with a gentle smile.

"Mm, Onii-chan is the best," Komachi nodded.

"What I want to ask is, among those sisters, Onii-chan, who do you really like?"

Hearing the anticipated question, Hachiman shrugged, "They're all good girls, so I like them all."

"Oh, that's not what I meant," Komachi shook her head. "I meant, Onii-chan, who do you want to be my sister-in-law?"

"Then Komachi, who do you want to be your sister-in-law?" Hachiman bounced the question back.

"After all, Komachi is my sister, so your opinion is important too."

Trying to play matchmaker again, huh? Let's make you suffer a bit this time.

"Mm..."

Sensing Hachiman's mischievous intent, Komachi pouted unhappily.

"Oh, Onii-chan, how could you? You're throwing such a difficult question at Komachi."

"I think all those sisters are great. Whether it's Yui-nee, Yukino-nee, Utaha-nee, or Kotonoha-nee, I want them all to be my sister-in-law. But you can't marry them all, Onii-chan."

"Well, if Komachi wants them all to be your sister-in-law, then I'll do my best," Hachiman finally revealed his true intentions.

Children make choices, but adults naturally want them all.

However, he decided to give this little sister a reality check. It wouldn't be good if she got scared when she found out he really had a bunch of sister-in-laws in the future.

"Tsk, tsk, Onii-chan is just bragging. Besides, even if those sisters agree, the marriage law now is monogamous. How could you marry so many wives?" Komachi made a face at Hachiman.

"But people should have dreams. If Onii-chan can really make those sisters my sister-in-laws, Komachi will be very happy."

Hearing Komachi's words, Hachiman smiled slightly, "Don't worry, leave everything to me. Komachi, just be mentally prepared."

Although Japan and other countries had the same monogamous marriage law, there was still room for maneuver if his imagined plan could proceed smoothly. After all, in some big conglomerates, having multiple wives wasn't difficult.

But the only issue was the number of people on his side...

"Go for it, Onii-chan. I support you spiritually."

Komachi didn't take Hachiman's words seriously. In her understanding, monogamy was common sense, and her brother's words just now were just a joke.

"Alright, Onii-chan, it's time to head back. You still have to take those sisters out for a ride," Komachi said.

"No problem." Hachiman nodded.

The siblings had been cruising on the sea for over ten minutes, and it was time to return and switch places.
