Chapter 294 Hmph! Trying to escape
Chapter 294 Hmph! Trying to escape
Red Bean pushed Kurenai, who was standing very close to her, away a little and explained slowly.
"I originally had no plans to get married. I was content with just doing some tasks occasionally and having enough money to buy meatballs."
"I feel good about being around Aoba right now, so I'll try staying by his side. Anyway, it won't stop me from eating dumplings."
"You..."
Kurenai Yuhi was at a loss for words when faced with this explanation from the red bean.
This really suits Red Bean's style.
However, as her best friend, she still mentioned it.
"Is it because he saved you? Qingye has many girls around him, don't you think that's unfair?"
"more or less."
Red Bean thought for a moment, "The way that guy appeared in front of me and punched Orochimaru to pieces was pretty cool."
"As for fairness, I'm more than ten years older than Aoba, and I know so many things. I can cook, I can tell stories, I'm strong, and I'm handsome. No matter how you look at it, I'm the one who's winning, okay?"
"Besides, we're all adults. We can go to him when we need something, and leave him alone when we don't. We sisters can go have fun, it won't bother us at all."
"..."
Kurenai was now completely speechless.
She could understand the first part of what was said, and even agree with it to some extent, but the last part made her head itch.
It seems like it's starting to develop a brain.
"red……"
Seeing that Kurenai was in a daze, Aoko narrowed her eyes and whispered in her ear, "You're not in such a hurry because you're worried I'll take it from you, are you?"
Kurenai's face flushed instantly, and she couldn't help but reach out and pinch Anko's cheek. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly have feelings for the student I'm teaching?!"
Red Bean, with a defiant look: "Getting impatient?"
Veins bulged on Kurenai's forehead instantly, and she pulled hard with both hands.
Suddenly, Hongdou's screams echoed from the street corner.
……
"Huh? Was that Red Bean's scream just now?"
Many people inside the venue heard Hongdou's screams coming from outside.
A secret team went out to investigate the situation.
Baiyun Qingye also sensed it, and was slightly stunned, but quickly came to her senses.
"what happened?"
Uzuki Yugao asked in confusion, "Did something happen to Ako?"
Bai Yun Qingye shook her head. "It must be that Sister Hongdou made Sister Hong angry and got a scolding."
Sure enough, not long after.
Kurenai brought Anko back, who was still rubbing her mouth.
However, they haven't come over to their side for the time being.
"By the way, Kurotsuchi, I remember your opponent in the third exam was Hinata, right?"
To avoid drawing everyone's attention back to Hongdou, Baiyun Qingye decisively changed the subject.
"Huh?"
Kurotsuchi, who was initially a little embarrassed, paused for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, it's Hinata."
"Then you'd better perform well then, otherwise you might not be able to become a Chunin."
Bai Yunqingye said with a smile.
"What do you mean?"
Kurotsuchi immediately became somewhat unconvinced, "Are you saying that I'm no match for Hinata?"
Let's not even mention his previous losses to Shirakumo Aoba and Yakumo.
Now they're even saying she's not as good as Hinata, who's soft, cute, and looks easy to bully.
Is this a disrespectful attitude towards her?
Shirokumo Aoba realized that the other party might have misunderstood, so she explained, "It's not that I look down on you, it's just that you might be misled by Hinata's usual appearance. Hinata is very strong."
Kurotsuchi frowned. "So, between her and Yakumo, who's stronger?"
"Well..."
Baiyun Qingye thought for a while. The two had never fought each other directly. "I don't know either. They are not the same type of ninja."
"Humph!"
Kurotsuchi crossed her arms and said, "As long as it's not as troublesome as Yakumo's illusion, I won't lose."
Then came things like "a disciple of the Tsuchikage" and "for the glory of Iwagakure".
This caused everyone to burst into laughter, filling the venue with a joyful atmosphere.
They completely forgot about what Kurotsuchi had said about Iwagakure also wanting to form a marriage alliance.
Then many more people came over to offer their blessings.
Baiyun Yeshan also came over to say hello, and then left early; he wasn't a person who liked crowds.
The people at the scene were all too enthusiastic, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
The banquet ended not long afterward.
"Teacher, you're not drunk?"
As they walked out of the Hokage Building, Shirokumo Aoba was very surprised to see Tsunade, who was only slightly tipsy.
"You brat! What kind of talk is that?"
Tsunade was very dissatisfied with his tone and couldn't help but pinch his face.
"If I hadn't been watching, Lady Tsunade would have been drunk long ago."
Silent, standing to the side, delivered the finishing blow.
"Mute!"
Tsunade pinched Shizune's face again. These two disciples were more infuriating than the other.
Everyone else watched this scene with smiles, thinking that the Hokage and her disciples had a really good relationship.
None of them intended to linger outside.
The whole family walked together toward the ancestral home of the Thousand Hands family.
The place, which used to be deserted, has now become a bit more lively.
It might get even more lively in the future.
"Kid, remember to come to the Hokage Building tomorrow!"
Before going home, Tsunade didn't forget to remind Shirakumo Aoba of something.
"understood……"
Baiyun Qingye responded helplessly.
"Aoba, Lady Tsunade really values you."
Maoyue Xiyan couldn't help but joked.
I'd rather not have it.
Bai Yun Qingye rolled her eyes and chose not to go inside. "Sister Xiyan, I have to go out for a bit."
"Going out so late?"
All three of them were somewhat surprised.
"Yes, I'll be back soon."
"Wait a moment……"
Before they could even ask where they were going, Baiyun Qingye's figure had already disappeared.
……
Outside the Thousand Hands Ancestral House, a figure dressed in a black robe was silently walking outwards.
Bai Yun Qingye suddenly appeared in front of her.
The man was clearly taken aback for a moment, then gave a soft snort and planned to walk around Bai Yunqingye and leave.
But Bai Yunqingye reached out and grabbed her wrist.
The man shook himself vigorously, but when he saw that it had no effect, he gave up struggling.
"Is there a problem?"
"Sister Konan, I thought you had secretly left Konoha."
Bai Yunqingye said with a smile.
This person was Xiao Nan, but her expression was somewhat cold, just like when Bai Yun Qing Ye first met her.
"You really want me to leave?"
Although her expression was cold, her tone was sharp and resentful, as if she were throwing a tantrum.
Are you angry?
Why would I be angry?
"You were already at the Hokage Building, why didn't you go in?"
Whether I go in or not is none of your business, right?
Upon hearing the other person's words, Baiyun Qingye did not reply, but simply gazed at Xiaonan quietly.
Seeing the other person remain silent, Xiao Nan thought that her words had been too harsh. She wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.
The two of them stared at each other for quite a while.
After a long while, Xiao Nan, being the more shy one, was the first to look away, biting her pink lips.
"Tomorrow... I will leave Konoha."
