After my triumphs and defeats, I created multiple aliases across countless worlds.

Hong opened her mouth, looking at Hongdou's expression, she didn't know what to say for a moment, the words stuck in her throat, she wanted to remind Hongdou.

But in the end, she gave up.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been so disappointing.

In the village, Hongdou didn't actually have many friends.

There are many factors involved, but if the two of them get together because of this, it seems like a pretty good thing.

However, the Uchiha clan's situation has been somewhat worrying lately.

The atmosphere in the village was very strange, and the Uchiha clan and the village seemed to be becoming increasingly estranged.

Ugh.

Why is this happening?

.....

"Brother Baiye, did you really not consider what that older sister just said at all?"

Meatball shop.

Quan swallowed the three-colored dumplings in one gulp, unable to contain his curiosity any longer, and asked Bai Ye if he really hadn't considered it at all.

If she didn't ask, she felt an itch in her heart.

"Quan, cultivation is the most important thing!"

"But...even if you're in a relationship, it won't affect your cultivation, right?"

Quan tilted his head, looking somewhat cute and naive, with a hint of confusion on his face.

She didn't know why Bai Ye came to this conclusion.

It seems that even being in a relationship wouldn't be affected.

"Women can make men increasingly listless, especially women like red beans!"

It has to be said that red beans are still top-notch in this era.

At least that's how Bai Ye sees it.

If I were to get together with Hongdou, I'm afraid she'd be buying my stuff every few days.

How can I cultivate then?

Quan didn't understand at first, but then she realized what was happening. Her face flushed slightly as she glared at Bai Ye, looking at him with shame and indignation: "Big Brother Bai Ye!!!"

hateful!

How could he do this!

Have you considered your age before saying such things?

Girls in the ninja world are precocious, so they naturally understand what Byakuya really means.

“But…but…”

Quan tapped her index fingers together repeatedly; there were some questions she wanted to ask.

But I don't know if I should ask.

"explain."

"So, Brother Bai Ye, have you ever dated a girl?"

She didn't know this before, after all, she had only known Bai Ye for the past few years.

So she was curious whether Bai Ye had ever dated a girl.

Although deep down he never had any feelings for Quan.

"No."

According to my memory, this identity would make me a normal student who graduated from a ninja academy.

A persona of someone who has no romantic relationships, few friends, and focuses on cultivating their skills and completing missions.

"I knew it!" Quan Chang breathed a sigh of relief, just as he had guessed: "Brother Baiye will be getting married in the future. I heard that there are girls in the clan who have a crush on Brother Baiye, right? Why don't you find one? At Brother Baiye's age, many people in the clan are already married!"

"Izumi, it seems like you really want me to find a girlfriend?"

Bai Ye was a little curious.

What is Uchiha Izumi thinking? She keeps talking about finding someone.

"No...no..."

Quan lowered her head, not daring to look at Bai Ye, but she knew that her little thoughts couldn't be hidden from Bai Ye.

So she simply stopped talking and quietly ate the meatballs.

After finishing their meal together, the two strolled around for a bit, managing to get a general overview of Konoha.

I invited Izumi to Ichiraku Ramen for dinner that evening, but since that question earlier, Izumi seemed to have become less talkative.

Although it was a bit strange, Bai Ye didn't ask any further questions.

After parting ways with Byakuya in the Uchiha clan's territory, Izumi felt somewhat flustered as she recalled the events of the day.

I feel like the night sky has changed a lot tonight.

Under the moonlight, the girl seemed to have some worries on her mind.

"spring?"

"Weasel?"

Hearing the voice, Uchiha Izumi looked up at Itachi, who was dressed in ANBU uniform, and was almost startled.

A voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she looked up and saw Itachi.

"Did you go out with Senior Baiye?"

Itachi had heard of this elder in the clan, and most of the time he had heard it from Izumi.

But I never came into contact with him because he was too isolated in my memory, and even his own clansmen rarely came into contact with him.

Chapter 8 - His Thoughts, Itachi's Speculation!

"Yes, it is."

Izumi nodded, looked at Itachi, and hesitated, unsure whether she should tell Itachi what Byakuya had told her earlier.

She herself didn't know much about it.

But I've occasionally heard Itachi mention it.

However, what Byakuya understands seems to be different from what Itachi understands.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Izumi's hesitant expression, Itachi originally intended to take his leave and return home.

Because I promised Sasuke something, and because I've been busy lately, I've had to keep postponing it.

Having finally gotten a break, he hoped to go back and play with Sasuke as soon as possible.

Thinking of Sasuke, a hint of tenderness flashed across Itachi's face.

"Actually, it's about what I said to Senior Byakuya before..."

Izumi was silent for a while, but finally decided to tell Itachi.

In fact, she somewhat agreed with what Bai Ye said.

So I wanted to tell Itachi what I had to say.

perhaps...

Was Itachi wrong from the beginning?

"Oh? What Senior Baiye said?"

Although he wasn't familiar with Byakuya, Itachi still maintained the proper manners.

Naturally, he knew that since Quan had said that, he obviously wanted to talk to him about what Bai Ye had told him before.

Is it about the Uchiha clan?

Itachi secretly guessed, and then confirmed it.

Perhaps only this matter could make Quan hesitate.

"Yes, it's actually about the Uchiha clan."

really.

After Izumi finished speaking, Itachi wasn't too surprised.
