Chapter 721 The Crying Child Gets the Candy
Chapter 721 The Crying Child Gets the Candy
Lin walked up to Qianyao, and the hazy look on Qianyao's face disappeared, allowing her to recognize him.
"Lord Qianyao, you're back!"
Lin was also very surprised; the last time she saw Qianyao was five years ago.
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, she studied in the hospital, and there was no further news of Chiyo after that.
In addition, Konoha has changed so much in the past few years that Rin feels like she's in another world.
Qianyao nodded: "I've been back for a while now. Let's go and have a chat."
"Yes, Lord Qianyao."
Lin has great respect for Chiyo, after all, besides being the Fifth Hokage, he is also her savior.
The three of them found a snack shop and sat down. Karin took the menu and excitedly ordered food.
"I saw Kakashi when I went to see Might Guy today."
Qianyao went straight to the point: "I asked Kakashi about you guys, but he didn't answer me."
"Five years have passed, haven't you made any progress?"
Don't underestimate Rin just because she's an ordinary medical ninja with mediocre skills. She alone stirred up a storm in the entire ninja world.
Qianyao is still very concerned about Lin's situation.
In his opinion, since Obito is dead, Rin and Kakashi should naturally get together.
Lin shook her head, her expression calm: "Five years ago, Kakashi said I was too young."
"We've always been friends."
Qianyao nodded. That was the truth. Lin was only 13 years old when she was resurrected, which was indeed a bit young.
"Aren't you eighteen now?"
In a world where it's common to get married at sixteen, eighteen is certainly no problem.
Lin shook her head, her expression somewhat reproachful: "Kakashi has too many things to worry about, he hasn't made up his mind yet."
At this time, the staff brought over a variety of desserts, including daifuku, mochi, and sweet fillings.
"Master, Lin, please try the mochi here, it's very famous."
Qianyao picked up a mochi, put it in his mouth and chewed, saying indistinctly:
"What does he have to worry about? They clearly like each other, why drag things out?"
Lin smiled, her eyes somewhat lost in thought: "Who knows? Maybe it's because I feel like I'm much older, or maybe it's because of the time I was killed."
"Perhaps, there's also the matter of Obito."
Seeing Lin's calm demeanor, Qianyao asked curiously, "You don't like him anymore?"
Lin's eyes lit up with longing, and her face flushed slightly: "Kakashi is so handsome, of course I like him."
"But Kakashi can't give his all to me; it's pointless for those two to be together."
Karin was eating her honey-filled pastry when Shion's voice echoed in her mind.
"Hmph! Karin, where have you been! Don't you know my wallet is empty after I paid for your things!"
This is the ability of the mountain clan, which, with the aid of array formations, allows them to have telepathic conversations with everyone in Konoha Village.
Karin said curiously, "What does it matter? I'll return it to you later."
Since Shion and Karin are colleagues anyway, it's the same if I pay for Shion's meal tomorrow.
Ziyuan said anxiously, "You have no idea how much you can eat! I was planning to go shopping this afternoon, but now I can't go."
Karin chuckled: "So you're always broke by the end of the month, but I'm right here in the shopping district, right now..."
After explaining the address to Ziyuan, she looked at Lin, swallowed what was in her mouth, and said:
"Lin, why don't you try to fight for it yourself? This way you're in a very passive position."
Lin was stunned for a moment. Before she died, she was actually quite proactive. To celebrate Kakashi's promotion to Jonin, she had specially invited everyone over.
Why am I no longer taking the initiative?
Lin's eyes were somewhat lost in thought as she pondered, then she sighed:
"It's probably because I liked Kakashi both before I died and after I was resurrected."
"But Kakashi had reservations for various reasons, which disappointed me a bit."
After hearing Lin's words, Karin's eyes darted around, and then she suddenly leaned in and kissed Chiyo on the cheek.
It gave her a huge fright! She snapped out of her reverie.
Rin stared at Karin in astonishment, her tongue tumbling out, "Karin, you, you, you guys...?"
Chiyo affectionately pinched Karin's cheek, then turned to Rin and said:
"Let me reintroduce you, Karin, my disciple and my fiancée."
"Ah!?" Lin was completely petrified.
"Wh...what!?"
"How could this be?! Isn't Karin your disciple?"
Chiyo shrugged: "Why not? Karin likes me, and I like Karin too, that's enough."
Karin looked a little smug: "Look, I got all of this by actively fighting for it."
“My master didn’t accept me before, but I never gave up.”
"Also, only the squeaky wheel gets the grease. You're so understanding that Kakashi can't even sense your presence."
"Now that Kakashi is hesitating, you're not going to try to win him over. Be careful that Kakashi doesn't get tricked by another woman."
Lin looked somewhat shocked, after all, she had never thought that Karin liked Chiyo.
And Qianyao accepted this affection.
In her opinion, Karin was 10 years younger than Chiyo (she didn't know that Chiyo had only been in another dimension for two days, and the age difference had already shrunk to 5 years).
Especially since Chiyo was the Fifth Hokage, there must have been a huge difference in their thinking.
But no matter how different the two people seem to her, the fact remains that they are together.
Moreover, a fiancée relationship can be more formal than a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
"I don't think so..."
Hearing Karin's words, Rin asked somewhat guiltily.
"Does the squeaky wheel get the grease?"
Lin muttered those words with some uncertainty, after all, she was not that kind of girl at all.
The fact that she deliberately committed suicide on Kakashi's Chidori back then shows that she was a very opinionated girl.
She is usually understanding and never forces others, so when Karin showed her a different way, Lin was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Karin snorted: "You said it yourself, Kakashi is so handsome, isn't it normal for him to be liked?"
"He's not wearing a mask now."
Lin thought of Kakashi's handsome face without his mask and suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
"Girls should show weakness. If you don't fight or compete, Kakashi won't see you."
Karin looked like a little strategist, nodding and shaking her head, which made Chiyo chuckle.
While they were chatting, a young girl came running over in a flurry of activity, her white hair flowing freely, exuding youthful energy.
"Karin...!"
As soon as Shion arrived, she wrapped her arms around Karin's neck.
"Damn it, you just left me there and ran off!"
Shion was obviously joking with Karin, after all, they are good friends.
Karin chuckled, poked a mochi in her mouth, and fed it to Shion, who was standing to her side.
Ziyuan took a bite of the mochi and chewed it with a gurgling sound.
Only then did I notice Qianyao sitting next to me.
"Gulp!" The mochi, which hadn't been chewed much, was swallowed whole.
Ziyuan rolled her eyes in exasperation.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
"The clan leader is here too, hehe..."
Ziyuan was a little embarrassed; she had almost choked to death just now, how embarrassing.
After she, her mother Miroku, and all the people of the Land of Demons moved to Konoha, their lives underwent a dramatic change.
Having come to the Uchiha clan at a very young age, Shion also considers herself a member of the Uchiha clan.
Chiyo didn't mind, and just smiled and said, "You only have eyes for Karin."
Ziyuan shook her head: "I was too hasty just now, of course..."
When she turned her head to look at Lin.
Sudden.
Ziyuan's pupils suddenly changed!
