Chapter 346

~5 min read 946 words

Niu looked at Yūhi Kurenai with worry, her face also showing self-reproach.

"It's all Niu's fault; big sister Kurenai has already done missions for a day, and Niu is still being inconsiderate by training with big sister Kurenai."

Can't do it!

How can you be so foul!

Yūhi Kurenai looked at Niu's self-reproachful little expression, and her heart was tugged along with it.

She immediately straightened her back, patted her chest, and said.

"What does this count as? I can continue!"

"Even if I accompany little Niu to practice for a day, it doesn't matter!"

Yūhi Kurenai said, overestimating her capabilities.

At this time, she could only hold on.

How could she let the cute Niu show that heartbreaking expression?

"Really?"

Niu immediately smiled happily.

"Practicing for a day is not necessary; you don't need to push yourself."

A gentle voice came from the courtyard entrance.

Listening to this voice she had fantasized about countless times, Yūhi Kurenai's face immediately became flushed.

But at this moment, she didn't dare to turn around to look at the figure she had seen in her dreams countless times.

"Father!"

Niu cheered and rushed over, jumping into Senju Xingye's arms.

Senju Xingye smiled and picked up his eldest daughter, saying with a light smile.

"How is it? The feeling of being a ninja."

"Niu helped an aunt find a lost pet today, and also helped an uncle deliver some things."

Niu recounted the things she experienced today, her eyes shining with excitement.

Although these were not important things, this feeling of helping others made Niu very happy.

"That's good."

Senju Xingye smiled dotingly and then put her down.

At this time.

After a long period of psychological preparation, Yūhi Kurenai finally turned around, looking at the face she had been thinking about day and night.

"You, you, you, you, hello..."

Greeting him stammeringly, Yūhi Kurenai immediately lowered her head, constantly blaming herself in her heart.

Why is my mouth so clumsy!

The first impression is terrible!

Xingye-kun won't think of me as a fool, will he?

"Yūhi Kurenai, I remember you."

Senju Xingye came to her, his voice gentle.

"I didn't expect the new teammate arranged by Tsunade to be you; if it's you, I can be a little more at ease."

"Eh?"

Yūhi Kurenai looked up in surprise.

"You know me?"

"You don't need to say 'you' (honorific); I'm only a few years older than you, so there's no need to use such a respectful address."

Senju Xingye said with a smile.

Yūhi Kurenai immediately blushed and said in a voice like a mosquito.

"Then, Xingye-kun?"

If Senju Xingye's ears hadn't been sharp enough, he probably wouldn't have heard her speak.

"You can call me that if you want."

"As for your intention, I have already heard about it."

"Have you thought it through?"

Hearing Senju Xingye be so blunt, Yūhi Kurenai's face immediately turned red.

But this was something she had dreamed of, how could she back down at this time.

"I am willing!"

"I am not willing."

Yūhi Kurenai's face immediately turned pale.

Her eyes also became dull.

"Eh?"

Has my dream shattered just like that?

"You are still too young."

"If you really have this thought, let's talk about it next year."

"If you still have this thought next year, then come find me."

Yūhi Kurenai's face was once again filled with color.

Her eyes were full of lingering fear.

Looking at Senju Xingye's gentle smiling face, the words she wanted to complain about couldn't be said.

Now she only had one thought.

"I am willing, even if a hundred years pass, I am willing!"

"After a hundred years, we might not even be here anymore."

Senju Xingye looked at Yūhi Kurenai, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Subsequently, he carefully looked at Yūhi Kurenai.

Women in the ninja world tend to mature faster.

Yūhi Kurenai was the same.

Just looking at her figure, some would believe she was a twenty-year-old woman.

But Senju Xingye knew her current age, and the hurdle in his heart couldn't be crossed no matter what.

So even if Yūhi Kurenai didn't look like there was any problem on the outside, Senju Xingye wanted to wait until her age was appropriate before talking about these things.

Anyway, it was just waiting a year or two.

He was still very young and could afford to wait.

Having obtained Senju Xingye's promise, Yūhi Kurenai was very happy.

In the evening, she also received Senju Xingye's hospitality and enjoyed various delicious foods.

They were all good things she had never seen before or usually couldn't bear to eat.

After dinner, Senju Xingye personally sent her out.

Along the way, Yūhi Kurenai was like an ostrich, burying her head deep to hide her shyness.

Little did she know, this made it easier for others to see her true feelings.

"In the future, please take care of these two children, Niu and Luffy, along with Kakashi."

"If you have time, you can come over to play and get familiar with the atmosphere in advance."

Senju Xingye said with a light smile.

When Yūhi Kurenai heard him say "get familiar in advance," her face turned even redder.

"Mm, I will come often."

Just as she was about to walk out the door, Yūhi Kurenai suddenly thought of a few familiar sisters.

She hurriedly turned back and immediately met Senju Xingye's gentle smiling face.

"Um, there's something I want to say..."

The more Yūhi Kurenai spoke, the smaller her voice became, and her cheeks became more and more flushed.

Senju Xingye asked.

"Did you leave something behind? I'll have someone go get it." ===== CHAPTER 350 =====
