[Fruit Basket] Her Royal Highness the Rabbit Princess

Since the strength of Hongye and Suzuha is obvious to all, when Faymanti said that they would play Mozart's work No. 306 "Violin Sonata in D Major" as an encore at the end of the performance, the person in charge and others None of the troupe members objected, but they often teased and ridiculed the two during public rehearsals.

After more than a month of practice, the public performance of the symphony orchestra was very successful, and the last violin sonata played by Momiji and Suzuha also received high praise from music critics.

Due to the outstanding performance of the two, and the fact that Suzuha is a student of Fayman and is well-known in Europe, some international-level Japanese symphony orchestras began to compete for talent.

Although the evaluations given by experts and invitations from other bands are all affirmations of his own strength, for Hongye, what made him happiest was the process of practicing with Suzuha at Himekawa's house, and the relationship between Cynthia and Xiaomoo on the day of the performance. Arrive and present flowers.

Although he knew that Suzuha didn't know about his affairs, Hongye was very grateful to her for inviting Cynthia and Xiaotao to watch their performance and realize his dream. In addition, he was also very grateful to her for accompanying him to study the next day after the performance. He wrote the teaching in the book, and made the bouquet given to him by Cynthia and Xiaotao together into embossed flowers, so he invited her to dinner one weekend after the performance as a thank you.

After having a full meal, Momiji and Suzuha, who had no other special arrangements, walked around as usual.

Although Hongye likes the peaceful atmosphere of the two walking hand in hand, he feels that there is something lacking...

When she was distracted thinking about what was missing between the two of them, Hongye suddenly heard the cry of an animal, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

Seeing him stop, Suzuha also followed his gaze, and when she saw the puppy and kitten in the window of the pet shop, she smiled and said, "It's so cute, Momiji-kun, do you want to go in and have a look?"

"OK."

Hongye nodded, and then led her into the pet shop. Seeing her lovingly looking at the small animals in the cage, he asked, "If Suzuba likes it, would you like to take one home?" keep?"

"No, my brothers don't allow me to keep pets." Seeing his questioning eyes, Suzuha continued with some embarrassment, "When I was young, my father once raised a parrot, but it flew away later. I was sad for a while. Since then, no one in the family has pets anymore, even the housekeeper and servants are forbidden..."

Although he knew that the Himekawa brothers had good intentions, when he heard that even the servants didn't have pets, Momiji couldn't help but said awkwardly: "It seems that Mr. Zhi and Mr. Wu really love Suzuha!"

"I know this, but I still think they are exaggerating, and I feel very sorry for Ms. Narimiya."

Not knowing how to respond, Hongye could only look around secretly to see if she could find any novel animals to change the subject, but suddenly saw several cages with rabbits in a corner.

Looking at the rabbits that had already jumped to the side of the cage and stared straight at her, Hongye couldn't help but blurted out what she was thinking, "Suzuha, if you can have a pet, you would rather have one." What, is it a dog, or... a cat?"

"Huh?" Suzuha was stunned for a moment, then squatted in the area where the rabbits were, stroking the head of one of the rabbits with her fingers, and said with a smile, "If you can raise it, you should choose the rabbit. , although I heard that the rabbit is quite lazy, you may have to push it several times before it is willing to move."

After being silent for a while, Hongye also squatted down, and said in a strange tone: "Not only is it lazy, rabbits are also very cowardly, they dare not fight for what they want, and they will just do whatever happens. Crying, unable to protect the people and things that I value..." And I, is the best example...

"I always feel that Hongye-kun's description like this is a bit strange..." After frowning and looking at him, Suzuha turned back to look at the rabbit who closed his eyes and enjoyed her touch, "Also, I don't feel afraid Fighting or just crying when things happen is a sign of cowardice. If you dare not fight for what you want, it should be because you are afraid that you will hurt others when you fight for it, or you have to pay more than what you want when you fight for it If something goes wrong, you will only cry, it is because there is someone you can trust and rely on who can listen to you cry. It is a good thing, isn’t it? Just like me, because I don’t want my father and brothers to worry, so Even if I really want to help the family or raise pets, I endure it, because I know my brothers will comfort me, so when I encounter sad things, I don’t care about them and cry... Ah, if I use myself as an example, it sounds like It doesn't seem convincing..."

Hearing her words, Hongye felt a piece of her heart soften, and the knot in her heart that had been buried for a long time seemed to be untied just like that.So... isn't that cowardly...

Seeing her blushing face due to embarrassment, Momiji showed a gentle smile, "No, I have been completely convinced by you, thank you, Suzuha."

"Well, it would be nice to change Hongye-kun's perception of rabbits." After smiling back at him, Suzuha went to tease the brown rabbit again.

Seeing that she had been playing with that rabbit, Momiji also stretched out her hand to poke the ear of another gray rabbit that came closer, "It seems that Suzuha really likes rabbits."

"Well, I like it very much. When I was young, I begged my brothers for a long time because I wanted to have one, but my brothers still rejected me decisively, and then gave me a full-sized rabbit doll as a substitute."

It can be seen that she really likes the rabbit she teased, so Hongye suggested: "In this case, let's raise these two together. I will take care of them on weekdays, and I will come to your house on weekends I'll show them to you sometime, okay?"

Although he felt very moved, Suzuha still shook his head, "It's better not to, otherwise Hongye-kun will definitely be blacklisted by my brothers."

Well, in fact, I am now on the blacklist of Mr. Zhi and Mr. Wu... I didn't miss the flash of surprise on her face, Hongye just smiled at her, and then stood at the side waiting for her. The clerk looked at them and said, "Excuse me, I want this gray rabbit and that brown rabbit. Also, please help us prepare the things we need to raise rabbits and feed for a month."

"OK."

Because I vaguely heard the words "housekeeper and servant" just now, and the bag that Suzuha was carrying was a famous brand, so the clerk who knew that these two were definitely big customers quickly took the two rabbits out of the cage, Put them into the arms of Hongye and Suzuha respectively, and then followed the store manager to find the most expensive and high-end supplies in the store as quickly as possible, intending to take the opportunity to sell them.

While they were preparing, Momiji smiled and raised the left front foot of the rabbit in her arms, and let it say to Suzuha who was looking at the rabbit in her arms before she could react, "Come on, that's mom Oh, hurry up and say hello to Mom!"

"Alas?!"

---------------------

Because of the rehearsal for the ensemble, Hongye came and went to Himekawa's house more frequently than before, and later the two raised rabbits together, and often called themselves parents to the rabbits, so even though the Himekawa brothers didn't want to admit it, He also found out that the two officially became boyfriend and girlfriend, and reluctantly invited him to the wedding of Ji Chuanzhi and his childhood sweetheart Shoko Sifengin.

It's just that although Momiji attended the wedding as Suzuha's male companion, Himekawa Takeshi, who was supposed to help entertain him, stayed by Suzuha's side firmly, not letting Momiji get close to her.

Facing Himekawa Takeshi who was embracing Suzuha's shoulder while staring at her, Momiji could only sigh helplessly.

At this time, Himekawa Takeshi's fiancée Tomona Yamamoto couldn't help laughing a few times, "I heard that Kusama-kun and Hime have known each other for a long time, I thought Kusama-kun was used to Takeshi's childish behavior. "

Hongye smiled awkwardly, but didn't dare to go along with her words. After all, Takeshi Himekawa still doesn't have a good impression of him now, and it would be bad if the hatred value was increased.

Seeing him like this, Tomona Yamamoto laughed a few more times, and then she walked directly to Takeshi Himekawa to talk to him.Although Takeshi Himekawa didn't let go of Suzuha because of this, but at least he shifted his gaze to Tomona Yamamoto and stopped staring at Momiji.

Despite Tomona Yamamoto's help, Momiji still couldn't get close to Suzuha from the official start of the wedding ceremony to the end of the ceremony. Momiji felt a little disappointed about this, and saw several couples who were wedding guests interacting very intimately , Takeshi Himekawa and Tomona Yamamoto bit their ears and held hands from time to time, and when the protagonists of the wedding, Tomohime Himekawa and Shoko Sifengin were still kissing and hugging on the altar, his sense of loss increased a lot.

Obviously he has been in official relationship with Suzuha for three months, but apart from the spiritual communication, the two of them have not made much physical progress.

As a lover, Hongye naturally wanted to hug her and kiss her, but in public, because of the presence of outsiders, he dared not make any intimate gestures other than holding hands with Suzuha, who was very shy.And when he was in the Himekawa family, there were either the Himekawa brothers and the sister-in-law present to disrupt the situation, or there were housekeepers and servants waiting for eyeliners, so in order to avoid being really included in the Himekawa family's rejection of contacts, he even held hands. Don't dare to make it too obvious.

How... can we improve this situation...

"Ah, the bride is going to throw her bouquet!"

Hearing the cries of surprise from the women around her, Momiji, who was lost in thought, came back to her senses and looked in the direction where Suzuha was.At this time, she was being held by Takeshi Himekawa, and she listened to him with a straight face, "You are still so young, you are not allowed to go. We will talk about getting married when you are five or six years older!"

"Brother, it's just a bouquet..."

"No! This kind of thing is better to be believed than to be believed!"

"But brother..."

Hearing the conversation between the two, while Hongye sighed helplessly, she also walked a few steps towards the group of girls who were standing at the bottom of the stairs waiting to receive the bouquets.

Although she was just trying to see if she could get a bouquet for Suzuha, Momiji was still very surprised when the bouquet of gardenias actually fell into her arms.

While marveling at his good luck, he walked towards Suzuha under the angry gazes of the Himekawa brothers and the jealous eyes of all the women, and then presented the flowers to her with both hands, "Here, no matter who receives the bouquet, Suzuha or I, on behalf of It should mean the same thing.”

"Yeah." Although her face was too red, Suzuha still smiled brightly, "Thank you, Momiji-kun."

After noticing that the guests around him, especially the relatives and friends of the Himekawa family, began to tease and tease the young couple, Takeshi Himekawa, who was instructed by his brother's eyes, quickly said loudly: "Suzuha, Dad is looking for us, let's hurry over there! "

After he finished speaking, he directly half-dragged and half-hugged Suzuha, who was still looking at Hongye with a smile, away.

Seeing the posture of the Himekawa brothers, and one of them, even the groom, spared no effort to show her off, Hongye felt that even if he stayed here, he would not be able to have more interaction with Suzuha, so she prepared to leave, and planned to find Personally send a message to the Himekawa family for himself.

It's just that before he could find someone, the housekeeper of the Himekawa family found him first and told him that Himekawa Shuyuki had something to talk to him about.

After thanking him, he followed the housekeeper to find Himekawa Shuyuki, and bowed to him with a smile when he saw him: "Hi, long time no see, uncle."

Takeshi Himekawa, who was still hugging Suzuha, snorted, "Son of the Soma family, don't bark, who is your uncle?!"

"Mu, you're so rude!" After the reprimand, Himekawa Shuyuki said to Hongye with a smile, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Hongye-kun, Chi and Take both love Hime too much and that's why."

Hong Ye nodded to him, "Yes, I know, I also envy the relationship between the three of them."

Himekawa Osamu laughed a few times, and then he said again: "There is something I've always wanted to talk to Hongye-kun, but I couldn't find the time because I was too busy, so I want to take advantage of today to talk to Hongye-kun, You and Hime have known each other for a while too?"

"Yes, we have known each other for almost eight months since the day of the blind date." Although he didn't understand why he asked such a question, Hongye still answered truthfully.

"So Hongye-kun remembers it so clearly, it's very good." Himekawa Shuyuki showed a satisfied expression, "I just saw the interaction between you and Hime, and I think you should like each other. If so, I don't know Hongye-kun has Don't you intend to finalize this relationship?"

Hearing what he said, Suzuha, who was still struggling to get out of her brother's control, became quiet, while Hongye's eyes widened.

"No, I object!" Takeshi Himekawa, who had already reacted, shouted loudly, "Dad, Hime is still so young, why are you willing to marry her off?!"

"I just asked them to get engaged first, not to marry immediately." After waving his hand at him, Himekawa Shuyuki asked again, "What do you mean, Hongye-kun?"

Momiji, who was being questioned, subconsciously looked at Suzuha, and noticed that she just lowered her head with a blushing face, without any expression of displeasure or objection, so he obeyed his will and bowed deeply to Himekawa Shuyuki, "Yes, I would also like to ask you... to give Suzuha to me."
