Yuigahama Residence
"Yui, where are you off to?"
Yuigahama's mother asked, puzzled.
They had just finished dinner when Yui slung a bag over her shoulder, ready to head out.
Yui replied with a bright smile, "Mom, I'm going over to Yumiko's place today. I might stay the night, so I'll call you and let you know."
"Oh, Yumiko, huh."
Yuigahama's mother had t her before: a girl who seed like she had the disposition of a proper young lady but actually cared a lot about Yui. From what she'd seen, she felt comfortable with Yumiko.
"Sure, go ahead, just rember to keep updated."
"Okay!"
Yui left. Yuigahama's mother watched the door close, murmuring to herself.
Her daughter had reached the age where she was starting to move on with her own life.
"I wonder who Yui will end up with soday…"
She couldn't help thinking that, recalling a certain figure:
That gentle yet assertive boy who had kissed her—Rei Ao!
"!!!"
She still couldn't shake the feeling of that mont from her lips. Even recalling it made her flush and her heart pound.
"Ugh… If the boy Yui likes turns out to be him…"
Her thoughts swirled in chaos. She genuinely wouldn't know how to handle the relationship between herself—as the mother-in-law—and her son-in-law if it ca to that. It would be…so complicated.
…
Yumiko's House
In the shower, Yumiko let the water flow over her soft skin, her gaze unfocused. She kept replaying the mont she and Yui parted ways earlier. Yui had seed to muster all her courage, proclaiming with determination that she would never give up.
Yumiko couldn't calm down. That statent was Yui's direct reaction after overhearing everything that happened between Yumiko and Rei Ao firsthand.
"Yui… She's not going to do anything reckless, is she?"
Finished rinsing off, Yumiko reached out to shut off the water—but her hand froze in midair. A trade notification had popped up in their chat group:
[Ding! A new Trade has begun!]
[Trade Partner: Yuigahama Yui]
[Trade Content: Save her!]
[Trade Condition: Right to use her body once]
[Duration: Unlimited]
"???"
What in the world…?
Sensing that sothing was wrong, Yumiko rushed to the group to ask.
Miura Yumiko: "@Rei Ao, @Yuigahama Yui, what's going on? Is Yui in danger?"
Yuigahama Yui: "Yes, but thankfully Rei Ao-kun was here."
Rei Ao: "…"
Gazing at the perfectly uninjured Yui standing before him, Rei Ao suddenly had no idea how to cover for her lie.
Yes, it was a complete lie.
…
One minute earlier…
Rei Ao had been having an engaging conversation with Kirisu Mafuyu when suddenly he received Yui's trade request:
[Ding! Yuigahama Yui has initiated a trade request!]
[Trade Content: Save her!]
[Ding! Please select trade conditions!]
He thought Yui was in so sort of danger. After asking in the group chat and getting no reply, he chose the trade condition, and the trade was instantly confird. Assuming Yui was in urgent trouble, Rei Ao excused himself and stepped out. The mont he left his house, he was teleported via the trade to Yui's location.
But there were no monsters, no demons, no thugs—nothing dangerous. There was only a room drenched in a suggestive mood. A…hotel room. Yui's clothes were intact, no signs of coercion. Combined with Yumiko's question and Yui's earlier response, Rei Ao knew at once that Yui's "trade" had been a sham.
After responding to Yumiko, Yui closed the group chat. She looked up at him, eyes filled with nervousness, tears almost welling up.
She whispered, "I'm sorry, Rei Ao-kun… I lied. I tricked you…"
"Mm, I know."
"Do you hate for lying like this?"
She lowered her head. Only now did Yui regret what she'd done.
"I'm not mad," Rei Ao said, gently stroking her hair. "As long as you're alright. But I am curious about why you specifically brought here in this way."
He glanced around.
"The decor here looks like a hotel. It's so late, yet instead of being at ho, you're at a hotel. What are you doing?"
"Ugh!"
Yui's shoulders trembled.
"Phew…"
Rei Ao could hear her breathing grow uneven. And then—
To his astonishnt, Yui suddenly leapt forward and hugged him tight. She buried her face in his chest, speaking in a small voice:
"Rei Ao-kun, I… I like you, so… so…"
"Could you treat the sa way you treated Yumiko?"
Just saying that took all the courage she'd ever had, much more than when she first confessed.
After an afternoon of battling her own thoughts, Yui admitted to herself that she was jealous of Yumiko. And likewise, she didn't want to have any regrets—so this was the step she chose.
Whatever it took, she wanted to give herself to the person she loved most.
Rei Ao understood everything in an instant. He hadn't expected his impulsive actions to push Yui this far.
"…"
Silence. They could both hear each other breathe. But Yui, still pressing against him, felt nothing happening, and the excitent in her heart began to cool.
"I… I guess it's no good, huh?"
She assud she wasn't as attractive to Rei Ao as Yumiko was—after all, that was Yumiko.
But the next second, a strong yet warm hand tipped her chin up. Head tilting back, Yui saw his deep-blue eyes move in, followed by the heat of his lips.
"!!!"
This was…the kiss she'd so badly wanted! The intense warmth exceeded anything she'd imagined, making her cling to Rei Ao and lose herself in it.
After a long while, their lips parted.
"Hah…"
Yui gasped, almost forgetting to breathe. Rei Ao teased her: "You couldn't catch your breath, yet you clung to and wouldn't let go."
"Ugh!"
Already flushed red, Yui's face burned hotter with frustration. It was true—under Rei Ao's gentle guidance, she'd awkwardly "learned" and gotten so caught up she forgot the need to breathe.
"Yui, there's no going back now. It might be your first ti, but it won't be your last—because I fully intend to have you in my future."
He couldn't help it. His possessive streak ran too deep. There was no possibility of a one-ti-only deal.
Yui said nothing. Instead, she slowly sank to her knees, eyes reddened, gazing up at him:
"Rei Ao-kun… I studied a lot of books for this day. This is how serious I am!"
"??!"
This ti it was Rei Ao's turn to be stunned. He never imagined Yui would co this prepared. It was a bit thrilling.
Well then, no need to hold back any longer. With a wave of his hand, he cast a magical barrier around them, then posted a ssage in the group chat:
Rei Ao: "Yui was right—starting now, I'll be carrying out a 'rescue operation' for her."
Yes. Ti to let out the flood.
