Chapter 798: Where Did You Actually Run To?

Watching Lian Ye's back as he carries a chair away.

Hinata Yuki stopped and stood there for a long while.

Even now, he still doesn't understand what Lian Ye's words meant.

Isn't Nara Motoya a male?

How could pregnancy be possible?

After a moment of silence, he did not go to the Nara clan's lands again.

The next day.

"Hinata Yuki didn't come to see you yesterday, did he?"

Lian Ye finished making lunch for Qianshou Feijian, then ran here to bask in the sun.

"Hinata Yuki looking for me?"

Nara Motoya obviously didn't know about this.

Seeing this, Lian Ye understood that Hinata Yuki had taken it in yesterday.

He didn't come to disturb his close friend.

Otherwise, if Nara Motoya had left the Village with the King of Pressure, he would have nowhere left in the Village.

"If he didn't come, that's fine."

As the words fell, the courtyard gate was knocked.

"Motoya, are you home?"

Hearing that cold voice, Lian Ye immediately sensed trouble.

Why did the King of Pressure come?

Didn't we say yesterday not to let him come and disturb Nara Motoya?

It seems the other side didn't listen at all.

"He's here."

Nara Motoya opened the door and found Hinata Yuki.

He was carrying two boxes of gifts, his gaze landing on Motoya's belly.

That doesn't mean she's pregnant.

Yesterday, after returning home, he thought all night and felt Lian Ye wouldn't act without purpose.

Perhaps the Nara family possesses a related secret technique.

It might even allow a man to become pregnant.

So today he came bearing gifts, wanting to see if it was as Lian Ye described.

If so, they can rest easy; otherwise they can proceed with the mission.

"If you're here, then you're here—what gifts?"

Nara Motoya didn't understand what Hinata Yuki was after today.

Showing up with gifts, of all things.

"Come in quickly."

Hinata Yuki stepped into the courtyard and saw someone lying on a chair, drinking juice.

"Yo, what wind blew you here?"

Lian Ye said teasingly.

In his impression, Hinata Yuki was an unabashed cultivation maniac.

No different from his previously over‑competitive cultivation self.

He even went beyond it without lacking.

Now that the war is over, he has started to lie flat.

Yet Hinata Yuki still cultivates daily as if his life doesn't matter.

Lian Ye truly didn't understand why this guy was so intense.

If he has that time, he'd be better off lying flat.

Hinata Yuki looked at Lian Ye, then at Nara Motoya.

What didn't he understand about what happened?

Yesterday's remark was nothing but an excuse to keep Motoya from leaving the Village.

This guy never says a true word.

Seeing Hinata Yuki not respond, Lian Ye was already accustomed to it.

Geniuses in the ninja world always have some serious personality flaws; an optimistic, cheerful type like Naruto Uzumaki is truly rare.

Fortunately, Hinata Yuki is merely taciturn, far better than those ruthless types who would wipe out their entire clan.

He used to truly dislike the King of Pressure's pretentious behavior.

Back then, Lian Ye thought, how could Konoha Village have anyone more pretentious than him?!

So the two didn't get along very well at first.

Mainly because one of them felt unhappy unilaterally.

Later, as they spent more time together, Lian Ye gradually got used to it.

Their relationship can be considered pretty good.

"Since you're here, why not sit down?"

Lian Ye patted the chair Nara Motoya had been sitting in, his familiar manner as if he were the host.

Nara Motoya: "......"

This guy's nerve is truly as thick as a city wall.

Forget it, I won't spar with him.

When Zhi Cun Tuan Zang returns, this guy won't come back to disturb me while I lie flat.

Hinata Yuki hesitated for a moment, then looked at Nara Motoya.

"Sit, I'll go inside to fetch a chair."

Hearing that, he sat on the chair, but his back didn't lean against it; his body sat upright.

Nara Motoya felt a sigh in his heart at the sight.

One can only say that the Hyuga Clan Clan truly has strict family rules.

In terms of etiquette, there's nothing to criticize.

Far surpassing some shameless guy by an unknown margin.

"Hey, don't just stand there like a fool, didn't you see my juice is finished?"

Lian Ye pointed at the empty cup on the table.

Nara Motoya: "..."

This guy is really troublesome!

He must have truly lost his mind to let this guy stay in the courtyard.

He basically took in an old man!

Even if he vents inside, the juice still has to be poured.

In no time, Nara Motoya brought out two glasses of juice.

"Thank you."

Hinata Yuki took the juice with both hands, and thanked earnestly.

"You're welcome."

"You can't make juice for me with rotten fruit, can you?"

Lian Ye took the juice, his face showing suspicion.

How does he feel his juice isn't as fresh as King of Pressure's cup?

Nara Motoya: "..."

This guy is definitely looking for trouble; he must not be allowed to come back tomorrow.

"Yuki‑kun, what do you need from me?"

Hinata Yuki's gaze lingered briefly on Lian Ye, "I came to you to get a mission at the gathering place."

It's been some days since the war ended.

He hit a bottleneck in his home training and urgently needs combat to hone himself.

If it weren't for someone babbling yesterday.

They might have taken the mission and left the Village by now.

"Alright."

Nara Motoya did not refuse.

Troublesome as it is, the mission must be done.

After all, ninjas have a monthly quota of completed missions.

Some things can't be avoided just because you don't want to do them.

"Don't go!"

Lian Ye, seeing this, immediately pleaded.

If the two leave, he'll have nowhere to lie flat.

That kid Qianshou Feijian has been acting up lately, not handling paperwork in the office, insisting on reviewing documents in the courtyard.

Otherwise he wouldn't have run here to take shelter.

"Do you want to go?"

Hinata Yuki's tone was calm, but a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes.

Nara Motoya also looked at Lian Ye.

The teammate they were originally assigned was severely injured in the war.

At this moment the squad has only two members.

Although after becoming a Chunin they no longer need to team up for missions.

But they're used to teaming up, and suddenly missing a teammate feels odd.

It would be great if they could coax Lian Ye to join.

"No."

Lian Ye shook his head decisively.

Carrying out the mission is impossible.

Even if he returns home and basks in the sun in front of Qianshou Feijian, he still refuses to go out.

If he's spotted on the way by Madara Uchiha and Senju Hashirama.

He wouldn't be able to return that easily.

Hinata Yuki: "..."

Nara Motoya: "..."

This guy's refusal is a bit too straightforward, isn't it?

"How about you go a few days later?"

Lian Ye tried to persuade the two to temporarily abandon the mission.

At least wait until Tuan Cang returns before speaking.

That guy also doesn't know where he ran off to carry out the mission.

He hasn't come back for such a long time.

Otherwise he wouldn't have come to seek refuge with Nara Motoya.

"No."

The two refused without even thinking about it.

The host family is about to leave, so Lian Ye could only carry the chair and slink away.

"Tuan Cang, where exactly did you go?"

A good brother is not in the Village; he doesn't even have a spot to sunbathe.

He couldn't possibly have gone to bother Shuihu Ayi, right?

Fine, I can only go home and sunbathe right in front of that kid Qianshou Feijian.

Meanwhile, Iwagakure Village.

"Lian Ye, where exactly did you go?"

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang searched for a long time but never found any trace of his close friend.
