Having decided that Haru was a scumbag making moves on her sister, Yukino Yukinoshita had already prepared to fall out with Haru when she came to confront him.
Yukino Yukinoshita had even thought ahead that no matter how Haru sweet-talked her, she wouldn't believe him. After all, she understood his silver-tongued abilities all too well—even she had suffered losses in front of this person many times.
However, she never expected Haru would not play by the rules and directly present ironclad evidence—enough to prove that Haru really was cooperating with Haruno Yukinoshita.
Investment and stock trading.
Yukino Yukinoshita wasn't without impression of this matter. When Haruno visited school last time, Haru had mentioned it in passing. At the time, Yukino Yukinoshita thought Haru was fantasizing, never expecting this guy actually had such abilities.
Looking at those unreasonably long numbers on the app, even Yukino Yukinoshita, the second daughter of the Yukinoshita family who had seen much of the world, found it somewhat terrifying.
Such frightening liquid assets—even her own family might not be able to produce them. No, they definitely couldn't come up with this much money.
So much money was actually the result of Haru and her sister's enterprise?
Was this reasonable?
Completely unreasonable.
But seeing it with her own eyes, it couldn't be fake.
At this moment, Yukino Yukinoshita's heart was shocked beyond measure.
"Are you really cooperating on investments?"
She suppressed the shock in her heart and looked at Haru with forced composure.
"Could it be fake?" Haru smiled faintly.
"But, but..."
Yukino Yukinoshita took a deep breath, her mind a bit chaotic. "How did you manage to make such a large sum of money?"
"Obviously, I earned it."
Haru said nonchalantly, "I am a true genius after all."
This time, Yukino Yukinoshita rarely refrained from mocking Haru. After all, what she'd seen with her own eyes couldn't be fake. If this money was really earned by Haru, even Yukino Yukinoshita had to admit this guy was truly a genius.
At this moment, Yukino Yukinoshita's feelings became somewhat complicated.
Such ability was far beyond what she, someone who didn't even have the qualifications to be the family heir, could compare to.
If she had such ability, with her mother's personality, she would probably abandon Haruno without hesitation and reestablish her as the Yukinoshita family heir.
For a moment, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but feel a sense of defeat and envy in front of Haru.
"Wait." Yukino Yukinoshita then reacted, staring deadly at Haru. "Even if you're really cooperating, there's no reason to live together!"
Only then did Yukino Yukinoshita remember what had made her angrily seek out Haru in the first place.
Haru making moves on her sister—that was what made her lose her rationality.
This perverted, lustful, despicable guy had seen her body completely, and now he was even making moves on her sister.
Such a scumbag was absolutely unforgivable.
"Please."
Haru wasn't as worried now.
He clearly understood the shock his previous revelation had caused Yukino Yukinoshita, which had greatly diminished her anger and allowed her to listen to his subsequent explanations.
Without such a foundation, no matter how much Haru explained, the result would probably be "I won't listen, I won't listen."
The worst outcome could even be breaking off their relationship.
Haru understood Yukino Yukinoshita well and knew clearly that once she truly decided to distance herself from someone, she really wouldn't change her mind.
Haru naturally didn't want things to deteriorate to that point with Yukino Yukinoshita.
So he had quickly improvised and used facts to first overwhelm Yukino Yukinoshita.
Now he would implement the response plan he had prepared.
So Haru pulled up his recent investment logs and showed them to Yukino Yukinoshita.
"Yukinoshita, do you think making money in the stock market is simple?"
Haru patiently explained, "We need to pay attention to market fluctuations every moment, ready to buy stocks or change investment plans at any time."
"Look carefully at the timing of our investments—"
"So, for the convenience of investing, we had no choice but to temporarily live together."
Yukino Yukinoshita now had a bit more patience and carefully examined Haru's investment records.
Sometimes at 1 AM, sometimes at 2 AM, with investment sessions sometimes lasting an entire hour.
After seeing so many records, Yukino Yukinoshita's wariness and anger toward Haru finally subsided considerably.
She began to believe Haru's words.
After all, while Haru's sweet talk could deceive people, the records on major software platforms couldn't be faked.
Of course, if she knew that a certain guy and her sister often engaged in baby-making activities while investing, she would probably lose her rationality in fury and fight him to the death.
Fortunately, she had no chance of knowing such things.
"Are you crazy?"
Now Yukino Yukinoshita was worried about another matter, her beautiful eyes showing traces of concern. "Working all night long—aren't you worried about dying from overwork?"
The software records showed that for several consecutive days, Haru had been investing throughout entire nights.
This made Yukino Yukinoshita start worrying about Haru's health.
"Yukino-chan, are you concerned about me?" Haru looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with a half-smile.
"Who's concerned about you?" Yukino Yukinoshita's expression froze unnaturally for a moment, then she mocked mercilessly, "I'm only worried about my sister."
"Hehe." Haru smiled slightly and said nonchalantly, "Then you don't need to worry. Don't forget, I'm an extraordinary being. Even if I didn't sleep for an entire year, I'd be fine."
As someone who had reached the concentration realm, Haru no longer needed sleep, or rather, his body was constantly in deep sleep mode, even during busy baby-making activities.
"As for Haruno, I have ways to ensure her health isn't affected."
Yukino Yukinoshita was speechless. Indeed, this guy was an extraordinary being—she couldn't judge him by ordinary standards.
Not needing sleep might truly not be something he needed to worry about.
Realizing that Haru might not have made moves on her sister, Yukino Yukinoshita inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
But she was still somewhat worried, looking at Haru expressionlessly:
"You really haven't made any moves on my sister?"
"Since you only want to accept the facts you choose to believe, then I might as well make moves on Haruno." This time, Haru chuckled and acted as if he was speaking in spite.
This actually startled Yukino Yukinoshita.
If Haru had denied it, Yukino Yukinoshita would have been more suspicious. But with Haru admitting it, she began to believe that Haru really hadn't made moves on Haruno.
This was human nature.
Haru was beginning to understand how to deal with this thorny rose, Yukino Yukinoshita.
At this moment, Haru's eyes flashed with amusement as a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind:
"If you really suspect it that much, then how about you move into my house too?"
"Let's live together."
