Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard-Chapter 844 - 499: A Man Who Takes Responsibility, and the Beautiful Woman He Meets Again
"There’s no need to fear others laughing at you like this. There are quite a few people coming to Snow Peak to enjoy the view at noon." Uesugi Sakura partially held the slender waist of the young woman in his arms and glanced around at the travelers on the mountaintop who hadn’t noticed them.
"So... doesn’t Sakura like Hanabi resting in your arms like this?"
Hanamaru Hanabi placed her small, delicate hands on his shoulders, her eyes gentle and her face slightly tilted up, speaking softly as sweet words seemed to linger around his ears.
To say he didn’t like it would be a lie.
Whether the girl’s entire body or just her willow waist, holding her was like embracing something soft and boneless.
Her gentle snuggling made even the winter snow feel warm.
"Why suddenly so clingy to me?"
"Because I hate you, Sakura."
"Hate?"
"Because I hate it... you didn’t pick up Hanabi’s calls! Over twenty calls, you didn’t answer a single one!"
"Well... haha, actually, Mom already scolded me about this earlier, telling me I should be more accommodating towards you, answer your calls, help with chores. As a guy, and considering your gentle nature, Hanabi, I should be cautious and nurturing with our relationship after marriage."
As he glanced over, Hanamaru Hanabi averted her gaze and softly inquired while looking elsewhere: "Sakura... what do you think of Hanabi?"
"Do I even need to say? A perfect beauty! You take care of people, can cook, have your own career, and there’s a ton of fans following you online... Though they don’t talk much, they truly exist."
"Dummy..."
Hanamaru Hanabi pouted subtly, murmuring with a tender gaze, "I didn’t ask Sakura to say that..."
Uesugi Sakura smiled: "Then what should I say? Compliment how good my wife looks in my mind?"
Hanamaru Hanabi promptly pushed him away, departing from his embrace, her delicate brows glaring at him: "What wife... Our favorability isn’t even at 70, not even holding hands level! Just a wife in name, not in substance!"
"Do I have a chance to increase favorability right now?"
Hanamaru Hanabi looked at his face, standing silently for a while pondering:
"Yes, there’s a chance."
...
[Little Sakura, this is the restaurant’s address, right next to the observation deck. It’s an ecological restaurant, bring Hanabi and the little ones along.]
Uesugi Sakura checked the address sent by his mother-in-law and pocketed his phone, glancing at the two younger sisters on the bench, and then at Hanabi seated beside them.
Three sisters, along with Aei and Chiaei, made a total of five sisters.
The Uesugi and Hanamaru families are indeed quite populous.
"Sakura, have you decided?"
"Well, yes..." Uesugi Sakura hesitated for a moment, "But I’m afraid the little ones might slip from my hands."
"Relax, relax," Hanamaru Hanabi picked up the baby sling beside the bench, "Just tie them with this."
Uesugi Sakura felt somewhat anxious: "Really okay?"
"Isn’t Sakura quite strong?"
"True enough."
"Then it’s absolutely fine!"
...
Uesugi Sakura couldn’t quite articulate what he was feeling in the moment.
Now, around his chest on both sides, two slightly over-one-year-old infants were tugging at his ears with small but powerful hands, babbling incomprehensible baby talk.
Goo-goo-ga-ga, ah-ah-ya... seemingly calling brother or sister. Although they had incredibly soft skin, their ear-pulling was surprisingly painful.
With both sisters in his arms, some might ask, where is your wife Hanabi? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Panting lightly, Uesugi Sakura could responsibly inform the questioner that his wife, Hanabi, was currently on his back.
"Sakura, you’re amazing." Hanamaru Hanabi held his shoulders, whispering into his ear.
In other words, all three sisters’ weight was pressing on him.
"Well, alright..." he replied.
"Sakura flagship! Move forward!"
Oh, you silly girl...
Uesugi Sakura felt a bitter humor inside, thinking if he didn’t keep up with a 10-kilometer daily morning run, strengthening his body, he might have collapsed under the weight by now.
The area near the observation deck had many tourists, naturally catching some attention with Uesugi Sakura’s unique display.
"Hanabi... How about you get down and walk? I can carry the sisters."
"No way!" The Hanamaru Hanabi on his back squeezed her legs tighter around his waist, clearly unwilling to come down no matter what.
"Hanabi, if you don’t come down, everyone’s... they’re looking."
"What’s the problem?" The Hanamaru Hanabi on his back wrapped her arms around his neck, leaned forward, exhaled fragrant warm air across his ear, "Everyone knows how strong Sakura is."
Uesugi Sakura wore a wry smile.
If it were little Hanabi, she definitely wouldn’t want this kind of attention.
Step by step, each foot on the snow-white ground left a shadow trail.
Among the tourists, some girls in down jackets took several pictures of his actions. Few foreigners by the observation deck with professional cameras were smiling and snapping photos of Uesugi Sakura’s side and back view as a memento.
Uesugi Sakura wasn’t sure where they’d share the photos, but assumed captions like "the man overwhelmed by females" might garnish them.
