My love is abyss mode

Chapter 122 Thorns
"Can you entrust the rest of your life to me?"

Upon hearing the words uttered by Hatsushino Ryo, Kuronuma Kiba stopped moving and looked at her beautiful face.

At this moment, Hatsushiro Ryo was nestled in his arms, her body slightly curled up. The messy sheets covered her chest and waist, revealing her delicate skin on her shoulders, and her short white hair was wet and stuck to her cheek.

Afterwards, she would always remain in this position, her head resting on Kuronuma's left chest, her eyes closed in a docile, puppy-like manner, enjoying the precise warmth.

With the sunlight filtering through the curtains, you can see her eyelids trembling slightly, as if she were sobbing.

This was the first time Hatsushika Ryo had said something like that.

Kuronuma held her still-warm body tightly, saying nothing; he was exceptionally clear-headed at that moment.

Hatsushiro Ryo raised her face to meet his gaze, and asked again in a slightly weary voice, "Are you willing to entrust the rest of your life to me?"

As she said this, her wine-red eyes were filled with greed, as if she might pounce at any moment, like a wild beast that hadn't eaten for days in an animal documentary.

In the silent air, thorns grow thickly, trying to trap the free soul.

"Senior Liang, I'm afraid I can't agree to that so easily."

Kuronuma Kiba picked up his phone from beside his pillow, glanced at the screen; it was just past 3 p.m., and Tokyo was about to see the sunset.

The kendo club's training match is about to begin.

Both he and Hatsushiro Ryo were stamina monsters. On a whim, they didn't even eat lunch, and time slipped away unnoticed.

"Why?" Hatsushiro Ryo's body suddenly trembled, her tone tinged with nervousness.

She briefly experienced feelings and emotions, but after the initial excitement wore off, she would likely revert to her usual expressionless demeanor.

However, the sudden awakening of possessiveness is not a good thing for Kurogumu Kiba, especially since what Hatsushino Ryo said was somewhat extreme and heavy.

Giving up the rest of my life means giving up my freedom; how could I possibly agree to that?

Kuronuma put down his phone, rubbed her head, and smiled dismissively, "I promised Momo something, and I have to take responsibility for her."

"I do not mind."

You might not think that way in the future.

"." Hatsushiro Ryo closed her eyes, nuzzled his chest with her head, and her expression gradually hardened.

A dozen minutes later, she finally regained her usual expressionless demeanor, got out of bed, walked to the wardrobe, and took out a white kimono with a crescent moon embroidered on the back.

The bulky, heavy clothes wrapped around her body with nimble and skillful movements, the waistband wrapped around and around, neatly binding her slender waist and highlighting the perfect curve of her chest.

As Kuronuma watched her put on the kimono and transform into an elegant young lady, he remembered that the clothes he had brought were still lying by the hot spring pool: "Ryo-senpai, my clothes."

"Ah."

Hatsushiro Ryo responded with a nasal sound, and as she opened the door, she turned back to him and said in a lukewarm tone, "I'm not going home tonight."

After saying that, she walked away without even closing the door.

Kuronuma Kiba picked up his phone and contacted Kobayakawa Reiko, asking her to find a way to send the clothes over. These were the only two people he knew at the Hatsushino family's house.

Before the call even connected, Reiko Kobayakawa, dressed in a black suit, walked into the room carrying various paper bags.

After giving Kuronuma a slight bow, she hung the clothes from the paper bag in the closet while politely saying:
"Young Master Kuronuma, will the maid wash your dirty clothes and send them back to your apartment, or will you leave them here? Your new school uniform has already been delivered to your apartment."

"Stay here."

Kuronuma rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. The marriage certificate was in his pants pocket, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, it would eventually end up in Hatsushika Ryo's hands.

It would be ideal if the maid in charge of doing laundry didn't have the habit of checking pockets, but no matter how you look at it, people who work for chaebols wouldn't make such a mistake.

We must find a way to get it back. "Yes, the head of the family invites you to lunch. Will you accept?" Kobayakawa Reiko handed over a paper bag containing the new "couple outfits" prepared by Hatsushino Ryo: a burgundy sweater and black cargo pants.

"Go ahead and get the car ready. I need to go back to the college later."

After she left the room, Kuronuma Kiba got out of bed, changed his clothes, went out, and led by Kobayakawa Reiko, walked out of the old house and got into a black car.

"Aren't we supposed to have lunch?" Kuronuma asked, puzzled.

"This is the young lady's residence; the head of the family has another place to live."

Reiko Kobayakawa drove smoothly and then added, "You're the first man to enter the head of the family's villa."

"That's really strange." Kuronuma Fang said indifferently.

All signs indicate that Chie Hatsushino seems to dislike men, which is why she would do something as outrageous as stealing a child from a god.

As for the reason, as someone who is disliked, he had no interest in gossip.

A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of a villa. Chie Hatsushino was sitting in the garden having afternoon tea, her gentle and quiet demeanor like that of an elegant princess from a fairy tale.

"Good afternoon, Auntie." Kuronuma Kiba sat down across the table from her, and the maid promptly served lunch.

"I'd be even happier if Ya-kun would call me Mother."

Chie Hatsushino picked up the glass pitcher filled with fruit and poured him a cup. Her voice was gentle yet authoritative: “Although this is our first meeting, I really like Kiba-kun. You can treat me like your real mother.”

“To be honest, I simply can’t believe it.” Kuronuma Fang picked up his knife and fork without ceremony and began cutting the steak.

"You child, you don't know how to speak at all. In that case, I'll keep the marriage certificate for now."

As she spoke, she put down the teapot, took out the marriage certificate, folded twice, from the collar of her kimono with two fingers, and waved it in front of Kuronuma Kiba:

"Don't worry, your mother isn't the type to make things difficult for you."

This woman has begun to identify herself as a "mother".

Just as Kuronuma Kiba was about to activate the entry and reach out to snatch it, Hatsushino Chie smiled and stuffed the marriage certificate into the collar of her kimono.

I'll consider snatching it back once I've acquired the "time freeze" entry.

"You don't seem to like me as much as you say," Kuronuma asked as he forked a piece of steak and put it in his mouth.

"Well, there was no other way. I didn't want to be the head of the family at first, but my brothers and father all wanted me to marry into a family with other men. I had no choice but to get rid of them all."

Chie Hatsushino clasped her hands together, resting her chin on them. Her wine-red eyes stared intently at Kiba Kuronuma, glistening with a soft, watery light. "But Kiba-kun is different. You can make Ryo like you, so I like you too. I don't dislike you at all."

"Love the house and the dog?"

"So I'd love if you'd call me Mom, Ya-kun. I'll buy you anything you want."

"I'm not a kid."

Kuronuma frowned, quickly stuffing the food into his mouth without a care for his image: "Auntie, you've been troubled by Ryo-senpai's matter for a long time, haven't you?"

"Yes, she is, after all, my daughter."

Seeing that he was still unwilling to change his mind, Chie Hatsukano took out the marriage certificate from her collar and used it as bait: "If you change your mind, I can give it back to you, or the maid can accidentally throw it into the washing machine."

"I think I can try to make Ryo more normal, but she needs to put aside her company affairs and enjoy life." Kuronuma Kiba ignored her; he would never yield even to his girlfriend's mother.

It's just a marriage certificate; he can drag Shirakawa Momo to submit the marriage application anytime, as long as he does it before the Hatsushika family.

This is hardly a constraint.
