Chapter 158: The Hardest Mouth
"Then how did you end up as his son-in-law?" Masatsuki Aozaki asked.
"What do you mean?" Kōga Kuchiki tilted his head in confusion, his expression blank.
Masatsuki Aozaki sighed and shook his head. This idiot... how can he be so dense? Why can't he think outside the box?
"The Kuchiki Clan is one of the Five Noble Families of Soul Society, and your wife is the apple of Ginrei's eye—the treasured princess of the Kuchiki Clan."
He continued, "If he weren't satisfied with you, do you really think he would have entrusted his beloved daughter to you so easily? Everything you wear is a symbol of the Kuchiki Clan's status."
Kōga Kuchiki instinctively reached up to touch the Kenseikan atop his head, then lowered his gaze to the bright red wind flower scarf around his neck.
His eyes widened. "Could it be that my father-in-law...!?"
At that moment, realization finally struck him.
Masatsuki Aozaki watched him finally piece it together and found himself at a loss for words.
Not wanting to waste any more time, he casually asked, "Are you ready?"
"Ready for what?" Kōga Kuchiki blinked.
