Instead, I'm the one who's getting anxious all the time. What kind of logic is that?

Xiao Nan simply turned to the side, took a deep breath, and took a big bite of the grilled fish.

The perfect crispness hits you the moment it enters your mouth, and a "crunch" sound echoes in the quiet night.

Xiao Nan's eyes lit up.

Baiyun Qingye asked, "Is it delicious?"

"good to eat……"

Konan answered instinctively that she had never eaten such delicious grilled fish in Amegakure.

Baiyun Qingye then asked, "Is Sister Xiaonan still angry?"

Xiao Nan's expression changed slightly, and she changed her words to, "So-so."

Are you being arrogant?

"Crack!"

Chapter 237 Xiao Nan Breaks Through Her Defenses

"Crack!"

Xiao Nan accidentally bit through a crunchy fish bone.

A look of surprise spread across her fair and delicate face.

"What...what did you just say?"

Xiao Nan suspected that she had misheard.

"The so-called tsundere refers to a person's behavior that is tough and arrogant in order to cover up their shyness and timidity, which is inconsistent with their true feelings!"

Baiyun Qingye explained the meaning of "tsundere" to Xiaonan, word by word.

"Crack!"

This time, she bit off the skewer along with the stick, and her originally fair face turned red.

It wasn't out of shame, it was out of anger.

She now feels like biting this guy to death!

"I'm not being arrogant!"

However, she finally took a deep breath and did not do anything that would contradict her public image.

She discovered that this guy was not a kind and innocent person at all.

Full of bad intentions.

After getting to know him better these past few days, she often gets so angry at him that she wants to bite him.

"Is the grilled fish delicious?"

Baiyun Qingye asked again.

"..."

Xiao Nan remained silent for a while. She knew that if she continued to say anything other than that it was delicious, the other person would definitely say that she was being arrogant.

In the end, all I could honestly say were those two words, "Delicious..."

Baiyun Qingye laughed again, "That's more like it. I specially baked this for Sister Xiaonan, how could it not taste good?"

Xiao Nan couldn't help but roll her eyes.

At the same time, she felt a bit emotional; although she was somewhat angry, she wasn't resentful.

It made her feel like an ordinary person, not an angel who had to maintain a certain image at all times.

Not long after, Xiao Nan finished eating the two grilled fish and threw the skewers at Bai Yun Qingye's feet.

To express their dissatisfaction.

"Now can you listen to me?"

"Has Sister Xiao Nan eaten enough?"

Baiyun Qingye asked again.

"I'm full!"

Xiao Nan gritted her teeth; she wasn't some kind of glutton.

Bai Yun Qingye said with a smile, "Then, Sister Xiao Nan, what is it? If I can help, I definitely will!"

"This isn't helping me, it's helping yourselves!"

Xiao Nan didn't know why, but he actually breathed a sigh of relief. This guy was finally willing to listen to him properly.

"Sunagakure plans to launch a war against Konoha during the Chunin Exams, and they have already brought the One-Tailed Beast into Konoha."

Konan blurted out all the information she could tell everyone.

She naturally concealed information about the Akatsuki organization; even if she wanted to prevent war from breaking out in Konoha, she couldn't betray the organization's information.

Having finally revealed this information, Xiao Nan felt relieved, yet couldn't help but feel a little expectant.

The main reason is that I've been quite annoyed by the other party's "slowness" these past few days.

She was very curious to see what kind of expression Bai Yunqingye would make.

After all, she had gone to great lengths these past few days to reveal information about Sunagakure to Shirakumo Aoba.

As it turned out, this guy not only acted like an idiot and didn't take it seriously at all, but he even kept interrupting her.

So now she inexplicably wants to see the other person's face show surprise and regret after learning the information.

Just thinking about it gives me a satisfying feeling of being proven wrong.

However, reality was destined to disappoint her.

Bai Yunqingye simply touched his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face, before suddenly realizing what he meant.

With just two brief changes in expression, Shirakumo Aoba showcased her acting skills to the fullest.

"So that's why you've been saying all this time about how bad Sunagakure is, Konan-neechan."

Xiao Nan frowned.

It was too calm; this was not the reaction she wanted at all.

She felt as if something was stuck in her chest, unable to go up or down, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"The Sand Village has brought the Tailed Beasts to your village, aren't you worried at all?"

Bai Yun Qingye blinked, seemingly guessing what the other person was thinking, and immediately put on a rather exaggerated expression.

"I'm in such a hurry!"

Click!

Seeing the other party's reaction, Xiao Nan couldn't help but clench her fists.

"You already knew this information?"

She expressed her thoughts while also speculating in her mind.

How did he know the information? Could Itachi Uchiha really be an undercover agent?

Baiyun Qingye shook his head. "No, it's just that since we invited the other four major ninja villages to participate in this Chunin Exam, we had already made this preparation."

"And I did indeed sense the presence of tailed beast chakra in the genin squad of Sunagakure."

"Now that you know about the existence of the Tailed Beasts, why did you still hold the Chunin Exams?"

Xiao Nan asked, puzzled.

"That's because we have the means to deal with the tailed beasts."

"..."

Xiao Nan remained silent. Bai Yun Qingye didn't elaborate, and she wouldn't ask any more questions, as this was already considered important information.

She suddenly felt like a clown. These days, she was tormented every night and would dream of the hellish scenes on the streets of Konoha.

It turned out they were already prepared.

"Ah!"

Xiao Nan suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh; she couldn't stand it any longer.

"In that case, then I will..."

"Sister Xiao Nan!"

Baiyun Qingye interrupted her.

"Is there anything else?"

Xiao Nan just wants to leave as soon as possible.

Bai Yun Qingye looked directly into her eyes.

"Do you feel at ease now that you've told us all this?"

Xiao Nan paused for a moment, her emotions fluctuating slightly.

After learning that Konoha had made preparations, she felt much more at ease.

Baiyun Qingye continued, "Actually, I've noticed it these past few days. Sister Konan often feels inexplicably flustered, conflicted, worried, and uneasy. I initially thought it was because you had just arrived in Konoha and weren't used to it yet, so I've been trying to soothe your emotions."

"But now it seems that you, Konan-neechan, also came to Konoha with other purposes in mind, right?"

"..."

Xiao Nan fell silent, looking at the hurt in the boy's eyes, as if he had been deceived.

She silently looked away, not daring to meet the other person's gaze.

For some reason, she also felt very uncomfortable.

The look in their eyes when betrayed by someone they trusted is just like the look they had in the past.
