Ichinose Honami's Thoughts on Pregnancy / A New Exclusive Talent, Vanish Without a Trace!

Hashiba Hikaru wrapped her arms around her waist, her voice softening, "You can just ask, and I'll tell you... yes or no."

After taking a deep breath, Ichinose Honami adjusted her breathing. Although she was nestled in her boyfriend's warm embrace, she still felt a little cold.

"Hikari and Kiryuin- senpai are already together?"

The girl's tone was strange, carrying a sense of unwillingness to accept the truth, yet also a feeling of helplessness.

"Um."

Hashiba Hikaru tightened her grip on her arms and silently answered with a single word.

"... Is that really how it is?"

Ichinose Honami nuzzled against Hashiba Hikaru's chest, somewhat absentmindedly, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry, Honami."

"You don't need to apologize to me, Guang. I know you're popular, and it's normal for the senior to like you. Besides, she helped our Class A before, I remember that."

Ichinose Honami suddenly remembered some things that had happened before. It seemed that the Kiryuin had been eyeing her man for a long time.

"..."

Hashiba Hikaru didn't quite know how to explain, so she could only say in a gentler voice, "Honami, don't make things difficult for yourself. If you're unhappy, you can hit me or yell at me; I can accept that."

"Don't want."

Ichinose Honami shook her head vigorously. Ever since she "agreed" to her boyfriend having two other men dating at the same time, she knew that she could no longer have him all to herself.

There are clues to why this is happening now.

"Hikari, I have one more question to ask."

"You say."

Looking into his girlfriend's bright, clear eyes, he was somewhat surprised to see Hashiba Hikaru suddenly calm down, despite how much she had just been heartbroken.

"Up to today... how many girls has Guang slept with?"

"..."

"Didn't you say you wouldn't hide it from me?"

Ichinose Honami reached out and intertwined her fingers with her boyfriend's. She did it so tightly that her knuckles turned white, and her body trembled slightly.

"Several?"

Six.

"..."

After he finished answering, the next person to fall silent was Ichinose Honami.

Chapter 787 Ichinose Honami's thoughts on pregnancy.

Inside the dormitory room with the door closed, Hashiba Hikaru held his girlfriend tightly in his arms. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and the light in her eyes dimmed.

It's clear that Ichinose Honami is currently caught in a deep dilemma.

"Wow... there are already six?"

The girl murmured absentmindedly, knowing that she couldn't protect Hashiba Hikaru alone, but she never expected that so many people would want to share her with her now.

"This is my fault, it has nothing to do with Honami."

Hashiba Hikaru gently lifted Ichinose Honami hand, raising her small head and gazing into her eyes.

Who are they?

The girl's other hand was still intertwined with her boyfriend's. She raised her hand slightly, feeling as if all her strength had been stolen away.

"Besides Airi and Kikyo, whom Honami already knew about, there's also Suzune, Classmate Sakayanagi, and Kiryuin- senpai."

"..."

Hashiba Hikaru was very honest; he didn't want to hide it from his future girlfriend, whom he would marry. However, after hearing these names, Ichinose Honami's mood plummeted.

She had already made concessions, but she didn't expect the number of people to keep increasing.

"Light, is your promise still valid?"

Ichinose Honami knows she can't hold onto her boyfriend; her only desire is that promise to last a lifetime—the only thing she can cling to right now.

"Of course it works, and that won't change. After all, we've already filled out the Marriage Registration, haven't we?"

Hashiba Hikaru raised the girl's right hand, revealing the [Ring of Vows] he had given her on her middle finger. The silver ring shimmered under the light, looking dazzling.

"But..."

After hearing her boyfriend's promise, Ichinose Honami breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still couldn't help asking.

Will the number of people increase in the future?

This is what she cares about most. She will be staying at school for almost two more years, and new female students will join every year. Who knows, even more people will be attracted to Hashiba Hikaru.

"This..."

Hashiba Hikaru was indeed in a dilemma. In his mind, the choice of romantic direction would be based on the stock purchase situation, and at most, Shiina Hiyori would be added in addition to the current six people.

"Can't Guang even guarantee this to me? Will there be more to come?"

Ichinose Honami's heart raced a little. She tried to keep a straight face and stared intently into her boyfriend's eyes.

Although she had learned how to act cute with Hashiba Hikaru, this was a very important moment, and the girl felt she couldn't let him continue like this, otherwise he would give her less and less love in the future.

"If Honami really wants a guarantee, I can assure you that there will absolutely not be more than seven people."

Hashiba Hikaru paused for a moment, then said, "I can do this, and I will absolutely not go back on my word."

"There definitely won't be more than seven people?"

Ichinose Honami, being a very intelligent girl, immediately grasped the idea and asked, "Does Hikari mean you've already chosen the seventh person?"

"..."

Who is it?

"We're not in that kind of relationship yet, it's just a possibility. Maybe she won't approve of my nonsense."

Hashiba Hikaru sighed. He could roughly understand some of Shiina Hiyori's feelings, but he wasn't entirely sure if she would ultimately agree.

"I don't believe it. Just because you're so popular doesn't mean that if that girl really liked you, she would agree to your ridiculous request."

Ichinose Honami pursed her lips; after hearing the boy's honesty, most of her unease had dissipated.

The girl understood that Hashiba Hikaru wasn't just giving her the runaround; she had genuinely considered the final possibility.

"I don't know. I won't make decisions for others; it's a mutual choice."

Hashiba Hikaru hugged the girl tightly and whispered in her ear, "I understand."

"Honami, don't you really want to vent your frustrations? I know I did something really wrong. If we were a normal couple, cheating would be unforgivable, right?"

"Hmph, Guangming knows this perfectly well, so why does he still do it?"

Ichinose Honami reached out her small hand and punched the boy's chest, but there wasn't much anger in her eyes.

The girl had thought it through clearly. If they were an ordinary couple, and the man cheated, the woman could simply break up with him and find someone who only had eyes for her.

However, Ichinose Honami and Hashiba Hikaru are different. The girl simply cannot accept breaking up with him, and his departure from school to run errands this time is ample proof of that.

She can't even stand not seeing him for a day; the consequences of a real breakup would be terrifying.

Ichinose Honami dared not think any further.

"At first, I wasn't determined to take this path, but as my bonds with everyone deepened, I felt reluctant to give up halfway..."

This is Hashiba Hikaru's process of examining his own feelings. After deciding that he wanted to take the path of "I Want It All," he was prepared for many things and believed that he could definitely do it.

"Hmph, being a womanizer is being a womanizer, even if you put it nicely, isn't it still being a womanizer?"

Ichinose Honami slightly and reached out her small hand to pinch Hashiba Hikaru's face.

"That's true. Honami knows how much of a womanizer I am, yet he's still willing to date me. I'm so lucky."

Hashiba Hikaru chuckled and covered his girlfriend's small hand, vowing never to let go of her.

"How shameless!"

Although Ichinose Honami said this on the surface, she had actually gradually accepted the other person's behavior in her heart.

Seven is fine, anyway, in the end, the only person I can walk down the aisle with is myself.

Thinking of this, she suddenly asked another question.

"Hikari, when you were with them... did you insist on using [that thing]?"

"Well..."

"Are you really useless?"

Ichinose Honami's eyes widened in shock. A sudden thought struck her: if someone had gotten pregnant before her, her position would definitely be threatened.

"I use it most of the time, except during... the safe period."

Hashiba Hikaru rubbed his temples. Talking about this with his girlfriend was quite a novel experience, since the person he was talking to wasn't her, but other girls.

"The safe period isn't 100% guaranteed! No, I need to take precautions from now on, otherwise I'm afraid..."

Ichinose Honami hugged Hashiba Hikaru tightly around the lower back, emphasizing this.

"If you want me to agree to the light's absurd behavior, you must promise me one thing."

"What's up?"

"I'm the only one who can get pregnant; no one else can!"

"..."

Chapter 788 A New Exclusive Talent: Stealthy Trace!

After his girlfriend made a rather nonsensical declaration, Hashiba Hikaru was momentarily speechless.

"We're all still high school students, why is Honami thinking so far ahead?"

"I have to warn you in advance, because if we start doing it right away, it could easily go on and on."

The pink-haired girl blushed slightly. "If we're not careful, things could get really troublesome."

"Oh, so it was me who kept going on and on?"

Hashiba Hikaru chuckled. Ichinose Honami was also very experienced, and she would always pester him for a long time. Saying such things was just the villain accusing him first.

"It's all the light's fault!"

Ichinose Honami course, she also liked this kind of thing. As his girlfriend, it was her right, so she often stayed up very late.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. It seems I'll have to control what I do with Honami in the future. If you don't like it..."

Hashiba Hikaru feigned deep regret, saying, "I will try my best to control myself."

"Hey!"

The pink-haired girl froze for a moment, then quickly called out.

"I'm referring to other people, not me!"

"Is that so?"

Hashiba Hikaru smiled, the curve of her lips becoming even more pronounced.

Seeing his expression, Ichinose Honami instantly realized what was happening, and her pretty face turned even redder. This time, she was truly embarrassed and angry.

She pinched Hashiba Hikaru's waist, her voice trembling with anger, and asked, "Hikari, are you saying this on purpose?"

"Okay, it was just a joke, Honami, don't be angry."

Hashiba Hikaru hugged the girl in her arms, her voice suddenly becoming much gentler.

"I am very grateful that Honami can forgive my absurd behavior. Now that you have brought up this idea, I will definitely abide by it."
