Then, she saw Lin Mo had updated his diary about Japan again.
"What day was it since I transmigrated? Water? A string of garbled numbers in the novel group; anyway, the weather is nice, the location is the Ninja Academy rooftop, and I ate grilled meat and cabbage rolls personally made by Hinata Wife, which is worth commemorating."
"The only regret is that she didn't feed me herself."
"I haven't succeeded yet, I still need to work harder."
"Hinata Wife, you are the best!"
Bang!
It was as if smoke was rising from Hinata's head.
She felt her head getting hot and dizzy.
But she could still hold on, as long as Lin Mo didn't make those embarrassing jokes again.
"He's truly good at hiding it, a real actor in the making.
It would be great if he could act with Fuji Fuyukie (Stage Name)."
Ino rolled her eyes at Lin Mo.
Who would have thought that someone who seemed so quiet and gentle on the surface would be so… uninhibited inside?
As a member of the Yamanaka Clan, she was half a psychologist, and she could confirm that Lin Mo was a repressed man!
But she didn't think there was anything wrong with what Lin Mo wrote in his diary.
He wrote it for himself, so he could write whatever he wanted.
With her delicate mind, she could actually feel a sense of ease between the lines.
Lin Mo kept saying that this was a real world, but as a transmigrator, he still carried that playful attitude.
It was like he had suddenly stepped into a manga, watching the characters with his own eyes, changing things however he wanted, and finding it quite fun.
Only when Lin Mo truly started writing a diary seriously, meticulously recording everything he saw and heard every day, would he truly consider himself a person of this world.
"Lin Mo-sensei, try the grilled meat I made."
Ino wrapped a piece of grilled meat and placed it on Lin Mo's plate.
This was both to help Hinata out of her predicament and to attract Lin Mo's attention, making him look at her more.
"Hmm."
Lin Mo put the meat into his mouth.
At this moment, Ino's lips curved slightly, and she asked, "Sensei, would you like me to feed you myself?"
"Would that be alright?"
Lin Mo originally wanted to retort.
But then he thought that he wasn't at that stage with Ino yet, so he pretended to shake his head, "No, it wouldn't look good if someone saw us."
"Missed out on several hundred million!"
"Just ate grilled meat personally made by Hinata Wife, and now I'm tasting Ino Wife's cooking, the flavors are completely different."
"Ino even offered to feed me, but I was too embarrassed to accept."
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"Lin Mo-sensei, do you mean that if no one saw us, you would agree to let me feed you?"
Ino suddenly asked.
Lin Mo almost choked on the grilled meat, chugging a mouthful of water to clear his throat, and quickly corrected, "No matter if there's anyone or not, it's not allowed.
We need to be mindful of our positions."
"As expected of the love fairy who represents full positive energy, how can she be so good at flirting so early on?"
"Almost couldn't hold back, how embarrassing."
Ino almost burst out laughing.
Why did Lin Mo-sensei seem a little cute?
"Interesting, truly interesting."
Ino found it quite amusing in her heart, but she didn't continue to tease him.
If Lin Mo-sensei saw through her, it would be a huge loss, so she had to take it slow.
But what she didn't know was that her every move was being watched by a red-haired woman.
"Something is definitely wrong."
Sakura Haruno looked serious.
She wondered if Ino had taken a liking to Lin Mo-sensei and was planning to make a move.
Although Lin Mo-sensei was young and quite a good match for Ino.
But a teacher-student relationship, it didn't seem quite right, did it?
No, if it was Ino, would she feel…?
Besides, wouldn't it be better to have one less strong rival competing with her for Sasuke?
Sakura Haruno tried to convince herself, but when she looked at Sasuke next to her, she found that she wasn't as happy as she thought.
She must be worried about Ino, right? It must be!
Just then, a large face suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Hey, hey, hey, Hinata, can you grill a piece of meat for me too?"
Naruto said with a grin, squeezing himself between Sakura and Sasuke.
Sakura Haruno instinctively frowned, but said nothing, just moved closer to Hinata.
"You want to eat the meat I made?"
Hinata was quite surprised to hear Naruto's request.
But when she saw that sunny, smiling face next to Sakura, she felt unexpectedly calm.
"Lin Mo-sensei praised your grilled meat, so it must be delicious."
Naruto claimed he was there to show support.
In reality, he was there to cause trouble.
Thanks to Lin Mo-sensei, he had such a fun time this afternoon, a feeling he hadn't had since growing up.
Kiba, who bickered with him, Shikamaru, who ate grilled meat heartily, and Choji, who vied for food with him, were all his rare friends.
The only drawback was that the annoying Sasuke was also here, sitting with Sakura.
Now was a good chance to separate them by eating meat, and Naruto thought his idea was quite clever.
"Alright."
Hinata smiled softly and began to grill the meat.
Lin Mo looked at this scene and felt something was off.
"I discovered something strange."
"Hinata faints whenever she sees me, but she can chat calmly with Naruto, which is too weird."
"I'm not surprised that Hinata Wife faints whenever she sees me.
Scientifically speaking, she's just too shy, has always had a big appetite since childhood, and never ate enough.
When she gets shy to a certain extent, her blood circulation speeds up, her heart rate accelerates, her skin becomes flushed, her blood pressure rises, and her brain lacks oxygen, causing her to faint."
"…" Hinata secretly glanced at Lin Mo.
If she were Ino, she would definitely say, "Thank you for specifically researching why I faint from shyness."
But she was too shy to say it.
However, from now on, she had to eat full meals every single time!
"Then why is she so shy whenever she sees me?"
"Guess one: She's a transmigrator who changed the present and future."
"Guess two: It's a butterfly effect I brought, this world might be a parallel world."
"Guess three: This is the world of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and I'm controlled by the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but this possibility is the smallest (because I have a cheat)."
Seeing this, the women holding the diary immediately perked up.
They hadn't expected that the Ninja World had the power to travel back in time, and they had to make a note of this.
And the Infinite Tsukuyomi, they had seen it mentioned twice now, could it be related to Naruto and Sasuke saving the Ninja World?
They had to investigate thoroughly.
"Which situation it is, I'll verify later."
"However, Hinata Wife being shy around me is a good thing; as for Naruto, it's fine as long as she maintains her liking for him."
"Liking is the furthest from understanding!"
"I need to take action to be true to myself."
"Achoo~"
In a world somewhere far away.
The captain of the Gotei 13's 5th Division in Soul Society sneezed.
Then, he adjusted his glasses, a look of surprise on his face: "I actually sneeze like people in the present time?"
"It seems this body is truly too weak."
"The operation to acquire the Hōgyoku, it's time to initiate it!"
Bang!
The events in that otherworld's Soul Society had nothing to do with the Hokage world.
The girls thought, no wonder Lin Mo got this strange diary, it turns out he's a great writer who can write such profound words.
Even the Will of Fire was described by him in a magnificent way.
And Hinata felt as if something had exploded in her head.
Admiration, in fact, was the feeling furthest from understanding.
She and Naruto had always had an unreachable distance.
That's right.
Because she herself didn't have it, she envied everything Naruto possessed and wanted to obtain it.
But from the very beginning, she didn't understand Naruto at all.
She wasn't in love with Naruto, but rather admired and pursued the self she yearned to become.
At this moment, Hinata understood and completely let go.
Looking at Naruto again, he was still dazzling, but that halo no longer existed in her eyes.
"Always admiring won't change anything."
"Only by taking action will I not let myself down."
Hinata found a new direction.
At this moment, Lin Mo looked different in her eyes, no longer because of the "diary," nor because of the nickname "Hinata Wife."
"Whew—"
She took a deep breath, smiling as she placed the grilled meat onto Naruto's plate.
"Sasuke, did you see that?"
Naruto didn't rush to eat, but rather picked up the grilled meat and dangled it in front of Sasuke.
"How boring."
Sasuke frowned.
Naruto laughed triumphantly.
Just then, a pair of chopsticks suddenly reached out from behind Naruto and snatched the grilled meat.
"Smack—"
The grilled meat was snatched away, accompanied by Inuzuka Kiba's triumphant voice: "Haha, Naruto, this grilled meat is mine!"
Akimichi Choji heard the commotion, looked up at the grilled meat in Kiba's hand, and shouted, "The last piece of grilled meat must be mine!"
As soon as his voice fell, he directly transformed into a Human Bullet Tank and charged over.
Inuzuka Kiba tried to dodge but stumbled, falling backward.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Naruto was about to snatch back the grilled meat, and just as he was halfway up, he was pressed down by Inuzuka Kiba, lost his balance, and fell forward.
The next second, the scene froze, as if time had stopped.
"Pfft—"
Lin Mo spat out a mouthful of drink, letting out a curse in this other world:
"Wow!"
"Checked in, recorded.
The scene of Naruto kissing Sasuke."
"At this moment, Indra and Asura have confirmed each other, they are destined soulmates."
"This was supposed to happen seven days later, but it came early, which must be a chain reaction from my transmigration."
"But I think Naruto and Sasuke will probably thank me.
They would have been completely embarrassed in front of the whole class, but now there are only eight of us witnesses."
Lin Mo watched the good show in front of him with great interest.
Akimichi Choji was pressing Inuzuka Kiba to snatch meat, and Inuzuka Kiba, with Naruto on his back, was pushing him down.
Naruto, in turn, was pressing Sasuke down, and their mouths accidentally touched, their eyes wide with shock.
According to the original plot, they should have immediately sprung apart after their mouths touched, followed by a wave of disgust.
But now, with Inuzuka Kiba and Akimichi Choji's interference, Naruto couldn't move, and Sasuke was even more passively caught.
"Buzz!"
Sakura Haruno felt her mind go blank.
Sasuke's first kiss was actually stolen by Naruto, which was an eyesore.
Ino was still thinking about Sasuke, but Sakura, on the other hand, was purely watching the spectacle.
If she had a camera, she would definitely have captured this moment.
However, when she saw new content added to Lin Mo's diary, she couldn't help but praise, "Well done."
"Stop watching the show, go pull them apart quickly."
Lin Mo told Shikamaru and Shino to act.
Ino: "…"
You, who enjoy watching the show and making things worse, even recorded the scandalous history of the Naruto-Sasuke pairing in your notebook.
How dare you criticize others?
"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"
"Gross, dead last, I'm going to kill him!"
"Stuck-up Sasuke, I'm the one who's going to kill him."
"Ugh!"
Both of them were utterly distraught, but strangely, a peculiar connection seemed to have formed between them.
At this moment, the girls holding the diary were all stunned.
A female Ninja from another village exclaimed, "Wow, your Konoha Village has such an open atmosphere?"
"Pfft—"
In Konoha Village, Anko spat out her beloved sweet soup, exclaiming, "Young people nowadays are playing so wild?"
"So these two are the real couple, and Sakura has become the third wheel?"
Yūgao Uzuki's words hit the nail on the head.
"This is clearly an accident."
Kurenai Yuhi smiled helplessly.
Yūgao Uzuki was usually very calm and rational.
But after spending time with Anko, their conversations always left people bewildered.
"What accident, I think it was planned all along."
Anko stated emphatically, "Didn't you see what Lin Mo wrote? This was supposed to happen seven days later!"
"The Uchiha Clan produces handsome men, and their extermination is a loss to women worldwide."
"That boy named Sasuke is even prettier than a girl; it's normal for someone to like him."
Kurenai Yuhi looked at Anko, who was talking more and more absurdly, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
As a result, Yūgao Uzuki nodded, "I think this is fate."
Kurenai Yuhi: "…"
"But what does this have to do with Indra and Asura?"
Yūgao Uzuki pondered, stroking her chin.
Jokes aside, she hadn't forgotten about collecting useful information.
"What Indra, Asura?"
A rough voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Immediately after, two figures pushed aside the curtain and walked in.
"Asuma, Kakashi, you two are here!"
The ones who walked in were Asuma Sarutobi and Kakashi Hatake; Asuma was Hiruzen Sarutobi's son.
"Hey."
Kakashi raised his hand, his eyes still glued to the book page.
Asuma greeted the other three, then glanced at Kurenai Yuhi, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
After ten years, Kurenai Yuhi had truly grown more beautiful and radiant.
Her red eyes were still as captivating, and her long black hair was smooth and shiny.
Paired with her red dress, she exuded the aura of a mature woman.
Asuma had originally just casually looked, but when he thought of his father's instructions, his heart warmed.
He didn't really care much about the Hokage position, but he was quite fond of the woman in front of him.
"Asuma, don't you know it's rude to point and comment on a girl from behind?"
Kurenai Yuhi had already sensed something, and she immediately saw the fervent gaze in Asuma's eyes.
She suddenly shivered, feeling uneasy as if being targeted by a wild beast.
This made her very annoyed, and her words became sharp.
"Uh…"
Asuma was momentarily speechless.
If it were before, he might have said, "A Ninja must always be vigilant of their surroundings to avoid being ambushed."
But now, he didn't want to displease Kurenai Yuhi.
