[351] Getting Married Right After College

Chapter 351: Getting Married Right After College

"Becoming Hikigaya Yukino, how does that sound?"

Upon hearing Hachiman's words, the girl's body stiffened.

Becoming... Hikigaya Yukino...

In Japanese culture, it's a tradition for wives to take their husband's surname, which would mean she's getting married. If she were to change her name to Hikigaya Yukino, it would imply that she's marrying Hachiman.

Although the girl does indeed like Hachiman, it doesn't mean she's ready to get married so soon. After all, they're still in high school.

"W-what are you talking about, becoming Hikigaya Yukino..." Yukino's face flushed, and her words became stuttered.

"I'm not just talking randomly. I really want to marry you, Yukino." Hachiman placed his hands on her shoulders, his expression serious.

Then he leaned in and slowly kissed her lips.

It wasn't a fast kiss; if she wanted to avoid it, she could have easily done so. But Yukino didn't move.

So Hachiman managed to kiss her soft lips.

"Mmm..."

Yukino let out a short, muffled sound, closing her eyes as her long eyelashes trembled slightly, involuntarily responding to Hachiman's kiss.

After an indefinite amount of time, they parted, leaving Yukino with a rosy blush on her face, breathing slightly heavier, and giving Hachiman a shy glare.

"Are you satisfied now?"

"How could I be satisfied? I won't be satisfied until you become Hikigaya Yukino." Hachiman smiled slightly and held her tighter.

Hearing this, Yukino felt a sweet sensation in her heart.

"Becoming Hikigaya Yukino... that name sounds nice."

Even though she thought so, she didn't show it.

"You wish! We're still in high school, you know."

"Well, can't we just wait until we graduate from high school?" Hachiman smirked.

"No way! At the very least, we have to wait until college..."

As she spoke, Yukino realized what she was saying and blushed, glaring at him.

"You're dreaming, give it up, I'm not marrying you."

"Hahaha."

Observing the girl's adorable and tsundere-like demeanor, Hachiman laughed and shook his head.

He indeed harbored thoughts of marriage after completing college. By then, he might have made strides in his career and could offer a better life for the girls.

Seeing Hachiman's smug expression, Yukino felt a tinge of annoyance and playfully pinched his waist.

"Hmph, don't get ahead of yourself. I want to ask you, what about Yui? Don't think I don't notice that she also has feelings for you."

Upon hearing Yukino's question, Hachiman fell silent momentarily.

He hadn't planned to discuss Yui with Yukino just yet. After all, unlike Yui, Yukino was more likely to dwell on the topic and wouldn't easily move on.

So Hachiman intended to address it honestly as their relationship progressed.

Admittedly, he didn't want to lose any of the girls. After all, he was now an Lsp. How could he bear to let go of such lovely girls?

"Don't worry, I'll handle it." Hachiman shrugged with a smile.

"Just now that fool mentioned wanting the three of us to continue being happy together."

"But..." Yukino still harbored doubts.

Could this situation truly be resolved peacefully?

Given that both girls harbored feelings for the same person, whoever Hachiman ultimately chose would inevitably hurt the other.

Yukino didn't want to cause Yui pain, but she also didn't want to give up on Hachiman.

Unable to make a decision, she could only trust that Hachiman had a solution.

"Trust me, leave everything to me." Hachiman comforted Yukino.

Upon hearing his words, Yukino nodded. After all, he had kept his promises thus far.

The innocent girl remained oblivious to Hachiman's desire to start a harem.

"About the cat website, when we get back, I'll help you establish a basic framework for the website. Since it's summer vacation now, you can try managing it first," Hachiman redirected the conversation back to the website.

Yukino was indeed intrigued, "Okay, thank you so much for that."

To Yukino's gratitude, Hachiman shrugged.

"Why be so formal between us? But don't forget about my reward," he reminded her, recalling his earlier remarks.

Rolling her eyes at him, Yukino couldn't help but think, *This guy never changes.*

"Alright, let's head back. It's time to prepare lunch," Hachiman said, checking the time and addressing Yukino.

"Mm."

The two of them rode the motorboat, leaving behind a trail of white waves as they returned to the beach.

For lunch, Hachiman naturally took on the role of chef, with the help of the girls who were skilled in cooking.

One delicious dish after another was prepared by Hachiman's hands, and soon the table was filled with an array of tantalizing dishes.

Seeing the table full of mouthwatering aromas, the girls couldn't help but salivate.

After all, Hachiman's cooking was the type that you could never have enough of.

As the last dish was placed on the table, everyone eagerly uttered the customary pre-meal phrase.

"Let's dig in!"

...

After lunch, everyone took a break before returning to the beach.

Since they rarely came to the seaside, they wanted to make the most of their time there.

Naturally, Hachiman didn't have the leisure to play around. For him, sitting under the parasol, sipping chilled fruit juice, and watching the girls' graceful figures and the occasional bounce of their assets—wasn't this a better choice?

Just as he was enjoying the scenery, he suddenly noticed someone approaching.

Turning his head, he saw Saeko walking towards him in a purple swimsuit, with an elegant gait.

"Oh, Saeko, is there something you need from me?" Hachiman greeted with a smile.

"What, can't I come to see you without a reason? Even I would get angry," Saeko said as she sat down next to Hachiman, pretending to be upset.

Although he knew Saeko wouldn't get angry over such a trivial matter, Hachiman still spoke up to appease her.

"How could that be? Saeko, I'm delighted whenever you come to see me."

As he spoke, he reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.

Sensing his gesture, Saeko's face lit up with a charming smile.

"Hachiman-kun, you're taking advantage of me."

Hachiman shrugged, "We're an old married couple, what's there to be concerned about?"

Seeing him like this, Saeko couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Indeed, if it came to understanding Hachiman, she could definitely rank among the top three girls. Whether it was psychologically or physically.

But this time, she did have something serious to discuss with Hachiman, so she spoke up with a serious expression.

"My father has returned from overseas. He said he wants to meet you, Hachiman-kun."
