Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard-Chapter 885 - 522: Hanamaru Yuzuki. Hanabi, Will You Come Home With Me Today?

Chapter 885: Chapter 522: Hanamaru Yuzuki. Hanabi, Will You Come Home With Me Today?

At the supermarket, Uesugi Sakura sneakily approached Hanamaru Hanabi.

"Sakura, how about this green vegetable?" Hanamaru Hanabi waved a piece of green vegetable at him, her cheeks full of an adorable smile.

"Uh... it’s alright."

Uesugi Sakura could only reply like that, "Hanabi..."

"What?" Hanamaru Hanabi put the cabbage into the shopping basket.

"Don’t you feel that Yuuki has changed a lot?"

"Yuuki?" Hanamaru Hanabi pondered while picking out vegetables, "She’s doing pretty well."

Uesugi Sakura thought she wasn’t taking it seriously and coughed lightly, then spoke earnestly:

"What if I told you she just confessed to me in the car, saying she likes my type of guy?"

The broccoli in Hanamaru Hanabi’s hand fell straight to the ground, her hand frozen mid-air.

"Hanabi...?"

Hanamaru Hanabi lowered her head, murmuring to him: "Sakura can only belong to Hanabi, not even sharing with my sister... But Hanabi hasn’t forgiven Sakura yet... Can’t be with Sakura... But now must be with Sakura."

Is this, a brain burnout?

"Hanabi... Hanabi?" Uesugi Sakura called her twice more, and Hanamaru Hanabi returned to normal.

She pouted at him, somewhat angry: "You’re not allowed to have close contact with Yuuki!"

"Of course I know that." Uesugi Sakura saw the way she was thinking of him, genuinely finding it very cute.

"I think she’s entering puberty and wants to try dating a boyfriend."

"No way, Aunt wouldn’t let Yuuki date."

"Why? Is her family strict?"

"Otherwise, why do you think she went to study in England at 15? She went abroad even earlier than Hanabi." Hanamaru Hanabi put the fallen broccoli back into the shopping basket.

"The Hanamaru family is very traditional, highly valuing family reputation, so the children in the family have to achieve good results. Don’t be fooled by how Uncle now indulges in drinking, he actually graduated from Tokyo University as a research graduate, became a civil servant, served as a Police Chief at a young age, and solved many cases."

"Then what about you, Hanabi?"

"Didn’t I tell you? Dad had a falling out with the family to marry Mom, so Grandpa can’t really control Dad... Otherwise, why did Dad side with you that time instead of having Hanabi help Uncle for the family?"

"Yes, I know."

Uesugi Sakura understood, that for him and Hanabi to get married so early, his father-in-law had endured a lot of pressure from the family, otherwise... that day Hanamaru Yasushin wouldn’t have shown up to congratulate their wedding.

"So!" Hanamaru Hanabi looked at him, "If Sakura dares to abandon Hanabi, the consequences will be very serious."

Though she was threatening him, her pout conveyed care.

Uesugi Sakura didn’t know why she seemed so adorable.

"If Yuuki wants to find a boyfriend, Sakura can secretly help her, but absolutely, absolutely, absolutely no physical contact!"

After saying that, Hanamaru Hanabi turned away and lowered her head.

"Because, apart from Sakura, there’s no one else Hanabi can rely on. And Hanabi has given everything to Sakura, if she’s abandoned, she’ll have nothing left."

As Hanamaru Hanabi was saying these words, she was suddenly held by Uesugi Sakura, and she looked past his hand.

"What are you talking about..." Uesugi Sakura smiled and said, "I know, little Hanabi has given everything to me. Her love may be small, not so intense, but it’s incredibly sincere and attentive. Only when she’s not around does one notice that life is filled with her presence. In other words, Hanabi feels she can’t live without Sakura, but isn’t it the same for Sakura?"

"Cheer up, okay?"

"But, if Hanabi were to be happy, would Sakura not care? Because it seems like only when Hanabi is sad, do people feel sorry."

Hanamaru Hanabi looked at him, and she was referring to him with those words.

This time, Uesugi Sakura had nothing to say:

"Sorry... little Hanabi, I shouldn’t have ignored you for so long."

"That’s why Hanabi hasn’t fully forgiven Sakura yet... Christmas is coming, the New Year is near, Sakura, we’ve gone through another year."

"I’ll try my best to earn your forgiveness."

Hanamaru Hanabi smiled, as he said she would, happily smiling: "Then please, Sakura, try hard, let Hanabi also experience the feeling of being pursued."

"Sister, have you finished buying the groceries?" Hanamaru Yuuki emerged from behind the shelves, asking the two in the vegetable section.

"Yeah, almost done." Hanamaru Hanabi turned around, smiling with a very ordinary expression.

The group gathered with Hanamaru Yugetsu, who had been helping to pick out household items, and they all left the supermarket together.

Hanamaru Yugetsu: "Yuuki, why do you have to buy so many household items?"

"Because I need them, I don’t want to bother checking what’s missing later, there’s not much at home anyway."

"Alright."

The group walked together to the outdoor parking lot near the supermarket.

Uesugi Sakura was surprised to find a long-haired woman standing beside his uncle’s Honda sedan.

Getting closer, Uesugi Sakura immediately recognized her as Hanamaru Yuuki’s mother, Hanabi’s aunt, his father-in-law’s sister, Hanamaru Yuzuki.

"You guys go ahead, I’ll stay here."
