Chapter 42 But you're a boy too, right?
Chapter 42 But you're a boy too, right?
Yan Yi really didn't know if he was naive or stupid. This kind of embarrassing direct question was just kicked at him like that, and the key point was that Yan Yi didn't know how to respond!
An eerie silence fell over the room.
Although the ninjas present were all adults, they assumed it was just the young master's innocent and ignorant remarks... but it couldn't be ruled out that for a fleeting moment, they might have had a fantasy...
For example, the ninjas of the Hagoromo clan even considered the feasibility of doing so and the benefits it would bring to the clan.
The Uchiha gang thought the same thing... If they had that kind of relationship... wouldn't they no longer have to worry about the Uchiha causing trouble behind their backs? After all, they'd be family.
Uh... this idea was too outrageous, and in just a moment, they mentally crossed it out.
The atmosphere was deathly tense, but Takita stared stubbornly at Yan Yi, a hint of expectation and longing still flickering in his eyes...
Yan Yi had never experienced anything so outrageous before, and his ears turned bright red.
"But..."
"I'm not lying to you, Yan Yi! I really like you! Really!"
Still outputting... still outputting!
Yan Yi was filled with a million questions. What was it about her that made him fall for her? If it was her looks... well, she certainly lived up to the reputation of a beautiful Uchiha...
Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Yan Yi forced herself to speak slowly: "But I'm a boy...you're a boy too, right?"
"what???"
For a moment, Takita's mind went blank; his eyes widened in disbelief...
"You...you're a boy? You?"
"Yeah...no, do I look like a girl?"
Yan Yi was utterly bewildered. She saw herself as an adorable little boy, so how did she become a girl in Takita's presence? How could someone mistake one for the other?
As if something were breaking, Takita collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon, muttering something like "Liar..."
Yan Yi's heart skipped a beat. Although reality was cruel, he was still a boy... Takita did look pitiful, but... boys always have to grow up!
"Sigh... I'm leaving. I hope you understand and don't be too sad..."
Yan Yi felt a pang of pity, but he still had a mission to complete and couldn't waste time on this blunder.
The Uchiha group all breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, it was just a funny incident caused by the young master Yu Yi; otherwise, they really wouldn't know how to handle such an absurd situation...
Without lingering, Yan Yi took one last look at Takita, who was slumped on the ground looking dejected. However, Takita met his gaze.
Without getting up, Takita silently watched Genichi leave.
"He's...he's so cute...how could he be a boy..."
Takita still couldn't believe it. He thought it was a coincidence of fate—that he had just been sent by his father to receive them, and then, coincidentally, a beautiful Uchiha appeared on the other side...
The first thing he saw was Yan Yi standing in the middle, and in that instant, he really felt his heart tremble.
He couldn't resist, he really couldn't help himself, so he quietly ran over and pinched Yan Yi's cheek... Sure enough, it was so soft...
She's beautiful, has a great personality, and even handed me a handkerchief when I was almost in tears...
Such a wonderful person is hard to find even with a lantern!
pity...
Takita thought he was about to meet his soulmate, but the other person told him that he was also a boy, shattering all his fantasies in an instant...
This was definitely a huge blow to him.
"Young Master...Young Master? Are you alright?"
The ninja in haori who was following behind him and had come specifically to apologize looked worried and wanted to say something to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say.
Seeing that Takita remained unmoved and that her attempts to comfort him had failed, she had no choice but to force a laugh and try to distract the young master.
"Young master, don't be sad. There are many beautiful girls in the clan... Haha, I was just startled. I thought you had fallen for a boy..."
Takita raised his head slightly, his large eyes filled with doubt.
Seeing that his words had worked, the "apology ninja" immediately added, "Haha, although that's not exactly new... but don't worry, young master, your appearance is outstanding, and many people in the clan admire you..."
That's a bit of a stretch. Takita is well aware that he doesn't seem to have a good personality, so no one in the clan wants to be his friend...
But none of that mattered. Takita didn't hear a word of what was said afterward because he caught the key words!
"You mean...that kind of thing isn't new anymore, which kind?"
A bold idea suddenly popped into his head... and at the same time, he fully realized what was going on.
After hearing the other person's eloquent explanation, their previously dull eyes lit up once more...
He didn't want to waste a moment longer, so he stood up and ran towards the clan's meeting place.
"Huh?"
The "apology ninja," who was suddenly abandoned, looked bewildered as he watched the young master run away. After realizing what had happened, he immediately chased after him.
Although I don't know what the young master is thinking about again, he seems to be in a better mood!
He chased after them, smugly pleased with himself...
bang-
The meeting place door was flung open by Takita. Seeing his father working there, he immediately rushed to his father's side and snuggled into his arms...
"Dad! I want to train! I want to become stronger! I want to go next time we exchange information with the Uchiha!"
Takita's voice was loud, but he clearly expressed his thoughts.
The head of the Hagoromo clan, Hagoromo Kuranosuke, put down his pen and looked at his son with a surprised expression...
"Son, what's wrong? Why the sudden..."
It's no wonder he was surprised; it's because he usually spoils Takita too much, which has made him particularly mischievous and playful, and he has no desire to study at all.
But today, I don't know what my son is up to this time, he actually took the initiative to ask to cultivate.
"I'm fine, I just suddenly had a change of heart..."
Takita's face flushed slightly; the reason he made up on the spot was completely untenable.
Kuranosuke, being a seasoned veteran ninja, immediately saw through his son's clumsy attempt to conceal his thoughts... that endearing, almost futile, attempt by the little boy to hide his feelings...
"Haha, my son has grown up! So, whatever your purpose, wanting to become stronger is a good thing! I'll arrange the best teacher in the clan for you~ You must study diligently and attentively!"
Kuranosuke stroked his son's stiff hair with a doting expression and smiled contentedly.
He originally had three sons, but they had all perished in the protracted war... Later, he finally had a son in his old age, and naturally, he cherished him dearly.
This is precisely why he dotes on Takita, even to the point of spoiling him.
"Yes, I must go to the Uchiha clan next time! Father, please promise me!" Takita emphasized his request once again.
Kuranosuke readily agreed, "Alright! If your training can improve significantly, then you can go! It's time for you to gain some experience."
Although I don't know why my son suddenly went to the Uchiha clan, it's probably related to their arrival today...
After Takita happily skipped out of the office, Kuranosuke called out again towards the door...
"Ah Kuan!"
It was the "apology ninja" who was being called out; his name was finally uttered...
A-Kuan pushed open the door and went straight to Kuranosuke's desk.
Now that he has followed the young master to the meeting place office, he should at least give a brief report on what happened today.
Although they exchange information every month... sometimes even every week, today is different.
Because after the blow he just suffered, the young master seems to have become more sensible!
