[Fruit Basket] Her Royal Highness the Rabbit Princess

What is your wish that you most want to achieve?

Since Kusama Hongye was sensible, the answer to this question is to make the curse of the zodiac sign disappear on him, because once the curse disappears, he can return to his mother and reunite with his father, mother and sister Xiaotao's family.

Afterwards, as time passed, Hongye's deepest wishes gradually increased.

After being beaten up in the villa that summer, and he who originally wanted to protect Xiao Tou could only hug Xiao Tou and cry aloud, he wanted to become stronger.

When Xiao Tou sneaked into Kusamamoto's house and cried and told himself how much Xiao Tao admired him, he wanted to work hard to become a well-known violinist, and then give a concert for his father, mother and Xiao Tao to listen to.

And when he was 17 years old, his original wish finally came true. The zodiac curse on him disappeared for some reason, and when he hugged the opposite sex, he would no longer transform into a rabbit.

He thought that with the disappearance of this most haunting and insurmountable curse, the rest of his wishes would be easier to achieve, but all his good fortune seemed to have come from the disappearance of the curse and the encounter with his mother that morning. Burned out on two things.

He became stronger, at least, he was able to directly face the woman whom he had been afraid of since he was a child, and even reprimanded her for her past actions, but the princess he wanted to protect already had another knight, and he left with that knight.

The zodiac curse on him that made his mother Cynthia unable to love him has been lifted, but his father Shuo Somo asked him to give up such thoughts in order to maintain the happy life of the "three people" of their family.

His father said, "Father knows that you are sorry for Hongye, but if your mother is emotionally broken like before because she chose to forget about you after recovering her memory, it will be a secondary injury to you and your mother." .”

His father said, "And there is Xiaotao, she is still so young, if she sees her mother so excited and sad, she will definitely be frightened."

His father said, "It's been so many years, so can you please be wronged again, Dad will make up for you in other things."

Although he has doubts about his father's words, he dare not take risks with his mother and Xiaotao, so no matter how unwilling he is, he can only continue to maintain his original status and continue to be the "Caomo family" in his mother's eyes. In Xiaotao's eyes, the "relative and big brother who plays the violin very well".

After experiencing expectations again and again and despair again, even though he was as optimistic as he was stalking the red leaves, he still couldn't help but hesitate to the last wish, and didn't dare to place too much hope on the idea of ​​becoming a famous violinist.

He was very afraid that even if he tried his best, he would still not be able to gain a foothold in the classical music world. He was afraid that even if he became a violinist and gave a concert, his mother and Xiaotao would not be able to attend. In addition to music, he also double majored in Japanese literature, which he is more interested in.

Because of this decision, when he was in the third year of university, because he was proficient in both German and literary writing, he was asked by a relative of Soma’s family who ran a publishing house and was close to his father to help translate German. literature.

Although Hongye has been regarded as one of the employees of the publishing house from the moment he agreed and signed a contract with that relative, his life has not become particularly busy because of this, except that he has a lot of time to practice the piano and participate in some activities within the limit. practice with a well-known symphony orchestra, and was even able to pick up a pen to write and draw a story that I started to conceive after studying literature in college.

In the last two years of college and one year after graduation, he became the assistant violinist in the county orchestra, and translated and published as many as [-] articles.In addition, with the help of his father and relatives, he published a picture book under the pseudonym "Inaba no White Rabbit". Although the sales volume was not very good, at least he took the first step.

For such a result, Hongye felt that she should be satisfied, but for some reason, there was a small part of her heart that still felt a little empty, until one time when she came back to her home, she accidentally saw Botiao talking on the phone, talking on the phone. At the same time, when he showed a somewhat helpless and gentle expression, he realized what he was lacking now.

People who are affected by the Chinese zodiac almost all successfully find a partner for the rest of their lives in the end.Yuxi, who is a rat, has a school girl named Cangji Zhenzhi, Pochun, who is an ox, is with Yiling, who is also a horse in the Chinese zodiac, and Qisha, who is a tiger, also has Denglu who is a sheep. The wave bird who is a dragon has Xiaotou's former class teacher Yingzi Shiraki, the scorpion girl who is a snake has the shop assistant Hanane, Lijin who is a monkey has Ziwu's poor editor Miss Man, and the red girl who is a chicken There is Xiaotou's good friend Uogu Moo, as a dog, Ziwu has a man who is a god of the zodiac, and as a cat, Jia is with his favorite Xiaotou...

As for Le Luo, who was also broken in love with Xiao Tou when they confessed to each other and went to the big city together, after spending two years healing his emotional injury, he accepted the pursuit of a male classmate in college, and now he is talking about marriage.

Because she is also a partner in the front of broken love, Hong Ye pays more attention to this new relationship with Le Luo.After seeing Le Luo's partner and knowing that the other party is someone who can make up for Le Luo's shortcomings and tolerate her impulsive personality, he is relieved and gives Le Luo and the others the most sincere blessings.

Compared with other people who have been in pairs smoothly, he, who is still a widow six years after the curse disappears, is very pitiful. All the secret elders are actively trying to introduce him.

For the invitation to make friends with a companion who is also a zodiac sign, Hongye uses the previous cute way to avoid the important and change the topic; for the blind date arrangement of the elders of the family, Hongye can use the excuse of concentrating on work as an excuse to refuse.But when the person introduced became his own father Hideyuki Kusama, Hongye didn't know how to push it...

He wasn't sure whether Hideyuki Soma arranged the blind date because he wanted to distract himself from getting to know his mother, or because he really wanted to make up for himself, but after all, Hideyuki Soma was the only relative he could recognize, so in the end He still reluctantly agreed, and on the day of the blind date, he put on the clothes that Somo Hideyuki had prepared for him, and got into his German imported car with Somo Hideyuki.

On the way to the blind date place, Hideyuki Kusama smiled at Hongye who had been looking out of the car window and said, "Fortunately, Hongye is willing to come in the end. I heard Mr. Ziwu say that he invited you to participate in many social activities, but You refused."

"Because the other party is Ziwu!" Hongye snorted deliberately, "If I promise him and let him have an excuse to join those fellowship activities together, then I will be too sorry for him!"

Although there are no so-called gods and zodiac signs anymore, Hideyuki Kusama still dare not comment on their affairs, but just changed the subject with a smile: "Does Hongye know? The person you are going to meet today was recommended by Xiaotao." !"

Hearing his sister's name, Hongye's expression became a little more sincere, and he turned to Hideyuki Kusama and asked, "Is it recommended by Xiaotao?"

"Well, because the Himekawa family has business dealings with our family, Xiaotao has also met their daughter several times. Xiaotao said, if my sister who plays the piano so well knows you and plays together, she will definitely Can play very nice tunes!"

If that's the case, then this time it's actually a blind date for the purpose of a commercial marriage...

After hearing what he said, Hongye was stunned for a moment, and then she turned her head to look out the window with a smile again, but at this time the smile on his face also had a bit of bitterness that he didn't notice.

He said silently to the reflection reflected on the glass: "Ah, since this is the case, I hope that even if the blind date fails, I can still invite that lady to play a song for Xiao Tao..."

Not long after, the car arrived at the hotel where Hideyuki Kusama and the other party agreed.

After entering the private room of the hotel under the guidance of the waiter, Hideyuki Kusama smiled and said to the man who had stood up to meet him, "Sorry, President Himekawa, I kept you waiting."

"Where?" After shaking hands with Hideyuki Soma, the president of the Himekawa Group, Shuyuki Himekawa, smiled and looked at Momiji standing behind him at a certain distance, "So, this is the nephew of President Soma, Hongye-kun?"

In order not to confuse Cynthia's memory, and because he was afraid that Cynthia would restore her memory of Hongye because of other people's words, Hideyuki Kusama always introduced Hongye as a child of a distant relative in front of people who knew the secrets of the twelve zodiac signs. , The interaction between the two will not be too intimate, and this time is no exception.

"Yes, Momiji, why don't you come say hello to President Himekawa?"

Although this is not the first time being called a nephew by his father, Hongye still felt very uncomfortable, he forced a smile and bowed to Himekawa Shuyuki, "Hi, President Himekawa, I am very glad to meet you .”

Himekawa Shuyuki, who had already looked at him calmly the moment he entered the box, nodded with satisfaction, and then smiled and said to Soma and his son: "Okay, I'm just busy introducing myself, sit down quickly Otherwise, Hime might be frightened when he comes in and sees our battle!"

After being greeted by Himekawa Shuyuki, Kusama Hideyuki asked with great interest, "Is Hime referring to your daughter Suzuha, the president?"

"Yeah, after all, she is the only girl in our family, and no one else can be called a "princess" except her. It's just that Hime has a very thin skin. Every time his brother and I call her that, Her reactions were great..."

Looking at the doting expression on Himekawa Shuuyuki's face when he was talking about his daughter, Hongye, who had been sitting quietly listening to their conversation, couldn't help but feel very envious. The love Miss Yu received...

"Sorry, Dad, I'm late..."

While in a trance, Hongye suddenly heard an unfamiliar female voice, he subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, and then he saw a girl in a beige dress bowing deeply in his direction.

At this moment, Hongye found that the girl's figure overlapped with the most important woman in her memory.

Dark gray waist-length hair, two ribbons tied on both sides of the hair, such a respectful behavior pattern...everything is very similar to her, Honda Toru.
