Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

It even carries a warning connotation.

"...Hayato, do you know how much trouble your sidekick named 'Sho' has gotten into?"

Upon returning to his residence, Masato could not contain his anger.

Hayato Hayama bowed his head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Father."

"No, that's not what I want to hear! I want you to find him right now!"

"……Father?"

Hayato Hayama stared at his father in astonishment.

The politician, however, was so angry he laughed.

He immediately understood the meaning behind his son's expression.

"What happens to Xiang is none of your business! If you can't find him, then you're in trouble. Where is he right now?"

"..."

Hayato Hayama remained silent.

He understands.

Tobe Sho, who once again ignored advice and borrowed food and money from Hikigaya Hachiman, got into trouble.

He had actually anticipated this would happen.

However, since he couldn't help Tobe Sho much, he had no right to stop him.

"Hayato."

Suddenly, Ye Shan's mother, who had been standing silently to the side, spoke up.

She spoke in a tone that was not harsh, even rather mild:

"Compared to those willful classmates, what you need more is to protect yourself."

"...I don't know where Xiang is either."

Hayato Hayama bowed his head in response.

The official observed his son's expression.

Considering the low probability that his son was lying, he stopped directing his anger at his son.

At this moment, all he could do was hope that the others outside could find Hubu Xiang, who had gone out without permission!

As for what will happen to Hubu Xiang, Zhengren doesn't want to care at all!

He is now even more furious about his son's willfulness!

In this cruel era, he still thought of helping those peasants who were already private slaves.

Even classmates shouldn't do that!

Where does this leave him and his wife?

"That Xiang has secretly come looking for you. You need to bring him here, understand?"

The official continued speaking to his son.

Hayato Hayama couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Father, what will happen to him?"

"...If you want to stay with those so-called classmates in the future, then don't call me father anymore."

"It's a political figure," the official said coldly.

He knew that his son's personality was not suited to live in this world.

The problem is, even if one wanted to raise one, there are currently no conditions available.

It would be better to wake up the son in front of you!

"..." Upon hearing the reprimand, Hayato Noriyama remained silent.

Rationally, he knew he shouldn't pay any more attention to his classmate who had done something he didn't even know what trouble he had caused.

Emotionally, however, he finds it difficult to truly harden his heart and ignore it.

For some reason, Hayato Hayama suddenly thought of his classmate Hachiman Hikigaya.

If it were Hikigaya, would there be a solution?

"Also, you absolutely must keep your distance from other women from now on!"

The official spoke to his son in an exceptionally solemn tone.

Hayato Hayama couldn't help but look up: "You are...?"

“I can sense that your Uncle Changwu wants you to date Yang Nai.”

"..."

"You are not allowed to get close to any other women!" the politician commanded again.

He was genuinely disappointed in his son.

He had to repeatedly emphasize what should be a logical principle.

How old is this person?

If it weren't for the reunion with his friend Shogo, and even if he hadn't vaguely learned about Shogo's situation...

He really wants to have another child!

As for whether his friend Shogo intended to entrust Yono to his son.

The political figure is merely a guess.

However, it is clear that Changwu dotes on his daughter and would not entrust her to a man whose background he does not know.

Therefore, there is still a good chance for her son.

"Yukino has already become the concubine of the current head of the Kenbishi Agency, and she must be quite favored."

"If Hayato and Haruno can become a couple, then Hayato might be able to work for the Criminal Investigation Department like Shogo."

Politicians still have a lot of ideas in their heads.

Based on his understanding of his friend Changwu, there was a high probability that his son would marry Yangnai.

Shogo's wife would probably agree.

They've been friends for generations, and they trust each other implicitly.

Therefore, Zhengren simply took this opportunity to drive away the women who were always flitting around his son like butterflies and bees.

He knew very well that Changwu and his wife were very traditional.

If his own son, Hayato, is still so clueless as to have contact with other women.

Even if it's just chatting, there's no chance of getting in touch with Haruno!

Not to mention what my son did during elementary school...

It's clear that Haruno, who adores her younger sister, dislikes her son Hayato very much.

There's no hope of making anything more at this point!

A politician who favors his son becoming an official would absolutely not want any complications to arise in his son's relationship with Yang Nai.

Therefore, we must try to prevent all of this.

"Father……"

“If you call me father, then you must keep your distance from other women. I’m emphasizing this one last time.”

Struggling to suppress his anger, Zhengren said something indifferently and went into the room.

He knew that getting angry at his son at this point wouldn't do much good.

It would be better to let the wife gently guide him.

As he watched his father leave, seemingly disappointed, Hayama Hayato's eyes dimmed.

"Hayato."

Ye Shan's mother spoke up at the opportune moment.

She understood what her husband meant.

I wholeheartedly support it.

Furthermore, do these girls, who are oblivious to the importance of their own status and position, really think they can marry their sons?

She simply didn't interfere too much and make things more difficult for her son.

From now on, I'm afraid that won't work.

Later that time.

Hayato Hayama, exhausted, walked into his room as his mother comforted and reasoned with him.

Today he received a lot of news that surprised him.
