Chapter 478
Dingci skillfully pulled his hand out of the potato chips and raised his thumb with a smile on his face, "Okay!"
Sakura looked at Ino who had already disappeared, her face changed. This guy... couldn't wait to talk with Sai while walking...
When Sakura thought of this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, I have been playing with Ino since childhood, and we have experienced many big and small things together. Now, looking at the way she is talking to Sai, I just feel helpless.
After all, she doesn't care what kind of person Sai is, she just doesn't want Ino to get hurt in this relationship...
Shikamaru watched Choji go away, his eyes fell on Sakura beside him. Although his face showed no other expression, they were lovers after all, so he immediately noticed that something was wrong with Sakura. With a little thought, he was able to guess what Sakura was worried about, "Are you worried about Ino?"
Sakura didn't react for a moment, as expected of Shikamaru, and then nodded, "Ah? Um..."
Shikamaru naturally held Sakura's hand and walked towards the direction of the medicinal herbs. As he walked, he said, "Tsunade-sama also told me about Sai."
The generous and warm temperature seemed to carry an electric current, making Sakura blush uncontrollably.
After a moment of silence, Sakura did not elaborate. After all, she was not sure if there were other people eavesdropping on the story, so she simply played a riddle, "What do you think? Although he is a pitiful person, you know, I am more worried about Ino."
As a bystander, Shikamaru gave a pertinent opinion, "Care can lead to confusion. Don't underestimate Ino. Besides, feelings are the most difficult to explain."
The leaves were gently swaying in the wind, and the broken sunlight filtered through the gaps between the leaves and scattered onto the ground. The cicada sounds faded, sounding like the tide in the distance.
Looking at the blooming cloud in the sky, slowly sliding over the top of the mountain and drifting to the unknown distance with the wind, just as she was worried about the unknown events at this moment, Sakura pursed her lips and said, "I also understand this truth... ...It's just that I am worried about the things behind it."
"Ah, that's true. After all, even a cornered dog will do something. But, Ino has the Yamanaka clan behind her. It'll be fine. Don't worry, trust me." Shikamaru still looked calm, as if nothing in the world could disturb his inner peace. However, his slightly teasing tone made Sakura feel inexplicably relieved.
Sakura raised her head slightly and her eyes fell on Shikamaru. His eyes were firm and confident, making people want to rely on him.
She sighed softly, the worry in her heart gradually dissipating.
At this moment, Shikamaru held Sakura's hand again, gently but firmly, and his fingers gently stroked the back of her hand, bringing a warm touch.
Sakura's concentration was instantly interrupted. She lowered her eyes, feeling the warmth of his palm, and felt her heartbeat seemed to speed up even more. She tried to stay calm and didn't want Shikamaru to notice that something was wrong with her.
She paused, and slowly responded to Shikamaru's handshake, with moderate strength, neither too fast nor too slow. However, Sakura keenly felt that Shikamaru's strength seemed to have increased a bit, but it didn't hurt.
On the contrary, she felt a strong sense of security, as if everything would go well as long as he was by her side.
