"Are you trying to meddle in other people's business?"

The chubby boy in the lead, relying on his physical and numerical advantage, was not afraid of the stone in Bai Yunqingye's hand at all, and spoke with great confidence.

"hehe."

Bai Yunqingye let out a mocking laugh without any expression.

Then, just as the three were about to get angry, they threw the stones in their hands.

With his advanced shuriken-throwing skills, he could hit the stone precisely where he wanted it, and with considerable force.

The three boys immediately screamed in pain, each with several large bumps on their foreheads.

"Aaaaaah!" ×3

The three boys clutched their foreheads and screamed in pain, but as soon as they looked up, they saw Bai Yunqingye bend down and pick up the stone again.

The three of them immediately turned terrified and retreated while shouting.

"Don't come any closer!"

They scrambled and crawled away from the scene as fast as they could.

Shirokumo Aoba also walked up to Hinata, looking at her slightly reddened eyes and chubby baby face from crying.

He felt he hadn't hit it hard enough.

The Hyuga clan's guards are truly useless.

"Thank you, thank you..."

Hinata lowered her head and whispered her thanks.

"Does he know how to go home?"

Baiyun Qingye asked.

"I……"

"Gurgle—"

Under Shirokumo Aoba's surprised gaze, Hinata's stomach answered for her first.

Chapter 3 Kidnapping Hinata

Hinata had almost buried her head in the snow below.

Bai Yunqingye couldn't see the other person's expression at all, but from the blushing ear tips, she could still sense the other person's awkwardness.

He could already see smoke rising from the other person's head.

Is it really that awkward?

Considering Hinata's personality, it does seem that the situation was indeed quite awkward.

"Gurgle..."

After a long time, Shirokumo Aoba did not see any guards from the Hyuga clan arrive. Instead, she heard Hinata's stomach rumbling again.

"Ugh......"

Baiyun Qingye sighed.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Hinata thought it was because of her that the other party was dissatisfied.

Do you have money?

Yes, there are!

Hinata quickly answered, and even began frantically rummaging through her small bag, preparing to take out her money.

"Stop, stop, stop! I don't want your money."

Shirokumo Aoba quickly stopped the other party's actions. Hinata had obviously misunderstood something. Although he really wanted the other party's money, it wasn't the time.

"Let's go eat ramen together."

Shirokumo Aoba originally wanted to invite Hinata to his home for a meal, as his house was nearby. However, after thinking about Hinata's appetite, he decided against it, as the ingredients at his home wouldn't be enough for her to cook.

Moreover, the eldest daughter of the Hitotsuba family is not short of money.

"Eh?"

Hinata stopped rummaging through the things and looked up blankly, only to see Shirokumo Aoba's back as she turned away.

"Follow."

"okay."

Hinata, who didn't know how to refuse, carefully followed behind Shirakumo Aoba.

"Um, um... excuse me..."

"Ok?"

Baiyun Qingye thought she heard a mosquito buzzing. She looked around, but all she could see was white. How could there be any mosquitoes?

Finally, he stopped and turned to look at Hinata, whose mouth was moving, and asked curiously, "Was it you who was talking?"

Hinata instinctively wanted to look away, but she tried to calm herself down and looked at Shirakumo Aoba.

"My name is Hinata Hyuga..."

Hinata's voice is soft and sweet, making you want to tease her a little.

"My name is Baiyun Qingye."

After saying that, he turned around and led the way.

But after walking only a few steps, he asked again.

"Since you're from the Hyuga clan, you must be very strong, so why were you bullied by those three guys?"

Hinata was surprised that Shirakumo Aoba would suddenly speak to her and blurt out what was on her mind.

“My father taught me to treat everyone in the village with kindness.”

"They're not friendly to you."

That's because, because...

"Because you're easy to bully?" Bai Yunqingye interrupted directly.

Hinata's face flushed red again.

“Your father told you to be kind to others, not so that you would be bullied and not fight back. If you continue like this, even though I helped you this time, they will definitely continue to bully you like this next time you meet them. Who will help you then?”

"I think even your father would be more disappointed in you if he knew that you wouldn't fight back even if you were being bullied."

This last sentence hit the bullseye. Hinata immediately thought of the disappointed look that Hyuga Hiashi often showed her, and her little hands couldn't help but clench even tighter.

After a long while, Hinata's soft, sweet voice finally rang out, still intermittent.

"I, I won't do it again next time."

"I hope so."

Baiyun Qingye only mentioned it casually; whether or not the other party listened was up to them.

As the two were talking, they arrived in front of a noodle shop.

Seeing the sign that read "Ichiraku Ramen," Shirakumo Aoba led Hinata inside.

"Welcome..."

The two had just entered when they heard the clear and loud sound of the calamus.

As the two sat down in the corner, Ayam came to them.

"Oh, it's Aoba! Oh! This time it's my girlfriend whom I've never seen before."

Sweet flag clearly recognizes white cloud green leaves.

Upon entering, he immediately heard Changpu teasing him, and Baiyun Qingye couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"I've already said it, she's not my girlfriend, she's just a friend, our friendship is purely platonic."

Hinata didn't know what "little girlfriend" meant, but she felt that the older woman opposite her was looking at her strangely, so she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Little Qingye, I'm worried that you might accidentally get stabbed in the future. I've read that the endings of scumbags in novels are always very tragic, they even lose their heads."

Changpu looked like she was giving earnest and well-intentioned advice.

But Bai Yunqingye didn't want to pay attention to that topic and spoke directly.

"I'd like a signature tonkotsu ramen."

Hinata, what would you like to eat?

"Huh? I, I wish I were the same as Aoba-kun."

Hinata, who was listening to the opera, was startled. She spoke in a soft, sweet voice, as it was the first time she had ever eaten dinner out.

"Then let's start with two bowls of our signature ramen."

"clear."

After ordering, Changpu went back to her own business. It was peak dinner time, and she had only come over to say hello while ordering.

"Your signature tonkotsu ramen."

Soon, two bowls of ramen appeared in front of the two of them.

Shirokumo Aoba pushed Hinata's portion in front of her, and the rich aroma immediately wafted towards her.
