Chương 336: [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.

Chapter 337: Marrying Me Means You Won't Have to Struggle for the Rest of Your Life
However, the siblings returned to the shore on the jet ski.
As they disembarked, Komachi smiled happily at the girls.
"Riding on the sea was amazing! Sisters, you should all give it a try too."
Hearing Komachi's suggestion, many girls showed signs of excitement.
After witnessing the siblings' demonstration just now, they believed that Hachiman had indeed mastered the skill of driving the jet ski. However, the question of who would go first and who would go later remained.
Seeing the hesitant girls, Hachiman made a decision.
"Erina, why don't you go first? It's a way of thanking you for inviting us to the beach this time."
The girls didn't object to his suggestion, as it was indeed true.
They were guests at the Nakiri family's private beach, and the jet ski belonged to them as well.
Seeing the lack of objections from the girls, Hachiman extended his invitation to Erina.
"Come on, Erina, I'll take you for a ride."
Upon hearing his invitation, Erina felt a slight flutter in her heart, but being naturally tsundere, she wouldn't agree so easily.
"Hmph, if it's your invitation, then I'll reluctantly go for a ride with you."
Seeing Erina's tsundere attitude, Hachiman didn't mind, as he was already accustomed to it.
"Let's go, Erina. I'll show you what speed feels like."
He said as he took Erina's hand and they both got on the jet ski.
"I think you'd better hold on to me, Erina. It's going to be fast."
"You wish." Erina refused without hesitation.
With so many people watching, she couldn't bear to hold onto him. Even if it were just the two of them...
Hmph, even if it were just the two of them, she wouldn't willingly hold onto this jerk.
"Then you better be careful."
Erina's response didn't surprise Hachiman, but out of sight of the girls, he couldn't help but smirk.
"Get ready, we're off."
With that, he started the engine and pushed the throttle to the max.
The jet ski shot off like an arrow, speeding away swiftly.
Caught off guard, Erina was naturally startled.
"Ahh! You jerk, slow down a bit!"
"Don't go so fast, I can't handle it!"
"Jerk, you lied to me, it's so uncomfortable."
...
The sea was filled with the screams of the girl.
"Haha, that's why I said you'd better hold onto my waist," Hachiman laughed heartily.
"Jerk..."
Hearing his words, Erina couldn't help but grit her teeth. How could a smart girl like her not guess that Hachiman was doing this on purpose?
But for her safety, she still hugged his waist.
Resting her cheek against Hachiman's back, Erina's face flushed slightly.
This... feels so comforting.
Although she didn't want to admit it, having this guy by her side always made her feel unexpectedly secure.
Feeling the soft warmth behind her, Hachiman's lips curved into a gentle smile.
"Erina."
"Yeah, what is it?"
At this moment, Erina's voice lost its usual arrogance and softened.
"I like you, Erina."
Upon hearing Hachiman's sudden confession, Erina's blush deepened, even the tips of her ears turned red.
Although she usually portrayed herself as a proud young lady, she was, in fact, a naive girl at heart.
So faced with Hachiman's direct confession, Erina naturally felt her heart in turmoil, and her words became stuttered.
"You... you jerk, why are you suddenly saying such things?"
"I'm not just saying it randomly, I really like you, Erina," Hachiman reiterated with a smile.
"Hmph, there are plenty of people who like me, you're nothing special," Erina retorted with her usual arrogance.
But as soon as the words left her mouth, she felt a pang of regret.
Would this guy get angry if I said that?
Because, you see, they were still friends, right?
Yes, that's right, just friends, nothing more.
However, at that moment, the image of the two of them kissing flashed through Erina's mind again.
Hmm...
Okay, she admitted it, there was still a tiny bit of liking for Hachiman in her heart.
Just a tiny bit.
Yes, just a little bit...
Although she thought this way, the strength of the embrace around Hachiman's waist unconsciously increased a bit.
"Hmph, how much do you like me then?"
"I like you a lot, Erina. It's the kind of liking that lasts a lifetime," Hachiman replied.
Upon hearing his words, a sweet feeling welled up in Erina's heart, but then she thought of the flirtatious girls on the beach, and she couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy.
"Hmph, your words sound nice, but what about those girls who came with us this time? Don't think I can't see through it, they all like you."
Hachiman had already thought about how to handle this question.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of that. Do you doubt me, Erina?"
"Well, I'll trust you this time," Erina huffed.
She understood Hachiman's character to some extent. She knew he never made empty promises and always followed through with what he said.
And she also believed that even if Hachiman had to choose among those girls, her chances of winning were the highest.
In terms of looks, Erina was confident she ranked in the top three among the girls.
In terms of family background, as the heiress of the Totsuki conglomerate, she was undoubtedly number one among them. If Hachiman married her, it would be like not having to strive for anything in this lifetime.
And if we're talking about cooking skills, she was confident she ranked first.
Although, admittedly, she couldn't compete with Hachiman in that aspect.
Overall, Erina was undoubtedly a great choice, capable of holding her own in both high society and the kitchen.
As they fell silent, Erina kept her face against Hachiman's back. In that moment, everything seemed to quiet down, even the roar of the jet ski engine faded away, leaving only the sound of their hearts beating together.
After cruising with Erina on the sea for about fifteen minutes, they returned to the beach.
Seeing them back on the sand, Erina blushed slightly and let go of Hachiman's waist.
Disembarking from the jet ski, she grumbled, "Hmph, it's all your fault for driving so fast for no reason!"
"Okay, okay, my bad." Observing Erina's reaction, Hachiman shrugged and turned to the other girls.
"Who's up next?"
And thus, Hachiman took each girl for a ride on the sea.
During this time, Shizuka also became interested and took another jet ski for a spin, though not as skillfully as Hachiman, but managing decently.
Time flew by, and soon it was dinner time.
