Chapter 459

~6 min read 1,101 words

Finally,

The topic still reached the point of 'marriage'.

Haruno cheered up in an instant.

She didn't expect the main force of this 'attack' to be her father, not her mother.

Today, it was indeed impossible to avoid the topic of engagement.

She looked at Lin Ye, placing her hope on Lin Ye and her sister, who had already made an agreement with Lin Ye long ago.

Lin Ye didn't need to say anything; he had thought of this scene the moment he received the invitation.

Only Yukinoshita Yukino herself hadn't noticed any unusual color.

"Uncle's experience is enviable."

Yukino's father smiled and continued, "No need to envy, everyone has their own happiness, and I just possessed it earlier than you because of birth."

"Mm mm, yes, my happiness will appear in the near future."

Lin Ye agreed.

"Yukino and Haruno are both excellent, they are daughters I am proud of, but actually, I quite want a son."

Adoptive father is above, please accept...

This sentence suddenly popped into Lin Ye's mind.

A cameo, it's a cameo, Lin Ye suppressed this subconscious urge to retort.

"Uncle and Aunt are so young, you can work hard, if it really doesn't work, there is artificial technology now. I believe that in the near future, Miss Haruno and Classmate Yukino can have an extra cute younger brother."

"Hahaha, old, old,"

Yukino's father laughed, "Speaking of which, as a father, I haven't really cared about Yukino's high school life at Sobu High until now. She's already seventeen, there must be many boys like Lin-san who have confessed to you, Yukino!"

He looked at his daughter, waiting for his daughter's answer.

"Mm, there are."

Yukino hummed.

Being asked by her father in public, her shame began to act up.

For the first time, she was asked about love-related things by her father.

"Do you have a boy you like?"

Yukino shook her head, "No."

"Really? Isn't it because your parents and sister are present and you are embarrassed?"

Yukino's father seemed not to believe it yet.

"No, there really isn't. In high school, studies are the most important."

She said seriously.

"I am still very reassured about Yukino's studies."

He continued to ask, "What about Lin-san!"

"I don't like him. He is my classmate, a club member. I am very grateful that he saved me before, but my attitude toward him is based on a classmate relationship."

Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly, her dark blue eyes filled with sincerity.

"Feelings can be cultivated. Your mother and I were like this."

At this moment,

Even if Yukinoshita Yukino was slow, she smelled an abnormal atmosphere.

It wouldn't be that Lin Ye's joke was right, and her parents invited Lin Ye over today to set an engagement for her and Lin Ye, right!

No, that wouldn't be, this must be her overthinking.

Her mother just hoped she would give Lin Ye a chance and not keep refusing.

Her father must also have this idea, hoping she wouldn't unilaterally refuse Lin Ye, hoping she would give Lin Ye a chance.

"Father, I will handle my feelings well."

"Yukino is still very young, and many things she doesn't understand and has no experience in. A good man is missed if missed. A man who is willing to protect you even at the risk of falling into danger himself is very rare. I was chosen by your mother because of this point back then."

That feeling became even stronger.

"I appreciate Lin-san very much, and hope to set an engagement for Yukino and Lin-san."

The girl in the purple kimono froze in place, her eyes full of surprise.

Engagement, it really was setting an engagement.

Her father was direct, expressing his thoughts straightforwardly, no, this was even her mother's thought. Who was the master of the Yukinoshita family, who could make the final decision, she, as the younger daughter, knew very well.

Yukinoshita Yukino's surprised gaze looked back and forth between her father and mother.

Why did her father and mother suddenly propose 'engagement' like this!

This 'invitation' was definitely not just to express gratitude.

Could it be... Lin Ye's 'specialness' had been exposed in her parents' field of vision!

So, she, the younger daughter, needed to bind this 'special man', Lin Ye?

It wouldn't be like this, right!

The warm current in her body suddenly became cold, and Yukinoshita Yukino felt chilled to the bone.

She really didn't hope that what she thought was the truth, but, other than that, she really couldn't think of anything else.

Yukinoshita Yukino slowly lowered her head, "Father, I don't want to get married so early. Regarding marriage, I want to make my own decision."

She forcefully held back the confusion and coldness in her heart.

Lin Ye watched silently.

The only thing he wanted to complain about was that the drama he predicted was different. He clearly predicted 'stubborn daughter refuses dignified mother', but now it seemed to be the plot of 'stubborn daughter refuses kind father'.

Although it was equally interesting, there was still some small regret.

"Just an engagement, mutual understanding. If it's not suitable, the engagement can also be canceled."

"Father, I'm sorry."

"Yukino."

At this time, Yukino's mother, who had been silent, also spoke.

Yukino's mother, who had always brought strong pressure to the girl since childhood, spoke, and suddenly Yukinoshita Yukino's firm will was on the verge of cracking.

She met her mother's gaze, persisted for three seconds, slowly lowered it, and her body trembled slightly.

She wanted to continue refusing, but the words never came out of her throat.

Finally, she could only remain silent, refusing silently.

Silence spread, and a pin drop could be heard.

After a while, Yukinoshita Yukino said again, "Classmate Lin Ye has a girl he likes, he won't be engaged to me."

Lin Ye:???

That's too much, Yukinoshita.

We agreed—you would resolutely refuse, how can you go back on your word?

In the end, I still have to refuse?

I misjudged you, you woman who doesn't keep her word.

"Yukino, haven't you thought that the person Lin-san said he likes is you?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned, then shook her head and continued, "It's not me."

She didn't say the name, but gestured for Lin Ye to speak.

"Lin-san, did you really fall in love with another girl?"

Yukino's father and mother were both a bit worried.

If it were really like this, an excellent opportunity would be missed.

"Yes, I have another girl I like,"

Yukinoshita Yukino's heart relaxed.

It had nothing to do with her.

"But I still like Classmate Yukino."
