From that day on, Kushina was no longer alone. She gradually began to have friends around her, including Minato, Minato's teammates, Mikoto and Fugaku.

Fugaku talks little, is young and mature, is very cold, handsome and cool, but Mikoto, who is also from the elite Uchiha clan, is the complete opposite. Mikoto is gentle and easy-going. She is two years older than Kushina. After learning that Kushina has never been After becoming friends, he went to play with her during breaks in missions.

Girls of this age can spend an afternoon happily together, chatting and doing handicrafts.

In fact, Mikoto is still a little envious of Kushina. Although she grew up with Fugaku's childhood sweetheart, and the two of them have a crush on each other, Fugaku's aloof and quiet personality makes him disdain to express his feelings, no matter good or bad. , on the other hand, this is not the case with Minato towards Kushina.

Mikoto always remembered that when she first met Kushina, Minato went to the Uchiha clan to find her and asked her for help very solemnly and a little shyly.

At that time, Minato scratched his hair in embarrassment and smiled to himself. He said: "Kushina doesn't have many friends, but I can see that she likes you Mikoto very much. If it's convenient, if you don't hate her by chance, please trouble Let’s play with Kushina more often in your free time.”

Minato talked a lot, and before leaving, he didn't forget to tell her, "I'm here to ask you for this, but please don't tell Kushina, she has a very strong self-esteem."

As for why, how could Mikoto not understand?

If a person is willing to do so much for you behind your back, what is it if you don't like him?

Mikoto once mentioned this matter to Fugaku seemingly accidentally after completing her daily training routine.

At that time, Fugaku just listened quietly and did not express any opinions. This made Mikoto a little disappointed when she tentatively told the story.

She sighed softly behind Fugaku, why wouldn't the person she likes do something for her? Fugaku is really a boring person.

However, I am also very surprised that such a boring person is actually my favorite since childhood.

That afternoon, the setting sun shone like golden powder on Konoha Village. After coming out of the school grounds, the boys and girls walked one after another on the path beside the river embankment.

Fugaku suddenly stopped while walking. When Mikoto talked about what Minato did for Kushina behind his back, the look of envy on her face was too dazzling.

Boys and girls really care about different things. Fugaku was a little irritated. The balance he and Mikoto had maintained before was broken by Minato and Kushina.

Mikoto walked with her head down and didn't notice Fugaku suddenly stop. Without paying attention, her head hit Fugaku's back.

"Hey, why did you stop suddenly?" Mikoto was a little confused as she rubbed her painful forehead.

Fugaku pursed his lips tightly and turned around, staring at Mikoto motionlessly with his big dark eyes.

"Fuyue, you..."

Fugaku looked at Mikoto's smiling face and was suddenly stunned. He was a little embarrassed. He clearly had something to say to Mikoto, but when he really saw Mikoto blinking at him and smiling with innocent eyes, he felt a little embarrassed. Don't know what to say.

"What's wrong, Fugaku, you're a little strange."

Fugaku opened his mouth, always feeling a little embarrassed about what he wanted to say, but...

"Huh?" Mikoto tilted her head, looking very confused.

"Um...do you like Minato...like that?"

"Eh?" Mikoto was stunned when she heard this, "What do you mean I like Minato like that?"

"It's just... you like those fancy tricks..."

Mikoto frowned. She stared at Fugaku's slowly blushing face, as if she wanted to see through his face what he cared about in his heart.

After staring at Fugaku for a long time, Mikoto finally couldn't hold back her laughter. She bent over, holding her stomach and giggling.

Fugaku looked at Mikoto, who was laughing non-stop, and his face became a little ugly.

"Hey, Mikoto, why are you laughing?" It took him all the courage to ask such an embarrassing question. Why is she laughing?

Mikoto shook her head, straightened up, and looked at Fugaku with more emotion in her eyes. She took a step forward and took Fugaku's wrist hanging by her side.

"Fugaku, are you jealous?"

"...Eh?" Fugaku didn't expect Mikoto to ask so directly, and was completely stunned.

Is he... is he jealous?

Fugaku had never shown such a cute look in the past. In the past, because he was very talented among his peers, he had always been aloof. Nothing could make him like this.

Now, Mikoto looked at him closely, and Fugaku, who was so cute, felt a little more friendly.

"I'm thinking that boys and girls alike would like their loved ones to do a lot of things for them. Because they like and care about them, they will be nervous about the other person and want to make the other person happy. Don't you think so?"

Listening to Mikoto's words, a trace of shame appeared on Fugaku's childish face.

He has always felt that he and Mikoto grew up together and played together since they could crawl. He likes Mikoto and Mikoto likes him. This is a natural thing. They have the strongest relationship and don't need to do anything more to each other. Will not leave either.

However, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Looking at Mikoto's envious eyes just now, he suddenly felt an uneasy feeling. It turned out that what he held in his hand was not necessarily secure, just like a balloon. Even if he held it in his hand, as long as he accidentally let go , the balloon will also fly away.

"okay I know."

"What do you know?"

"..."

"Tell me, Fugaku."

He understood it quickly, but it was difficult for him to say it himself. This ancestral arrogant character was very distressing.

Fugaku did not directly answer Mikoto's question. He put his hands in his trouser pockets, turned around stiffly, and said to Mikoto behind him: "You said before that you wanted to read Ikemoto's latest manga, right? Then... let's go buy it now. I got my pocket money yesterday."

"But didn't you say before that Ikemoto's painting was nonsense and wouldn't let me see it?" Mikoto ran a few steps to catch up.

Fugaku's face turned redder, and he hesitated: "Before was before, and now is now. Besides... you like it."

This was quite a surprise. Mikoto jumped up happily. No matter how gentle a girl is, she is always alive and kicking when she is happy.

Mikoto is very happy, her Fugaku is finally coming to her senses.

At this moment, she no longer envied Kushina.

Looking at Fugaku, who was always a little unnatural next to her, Mikoto smiled even sweeter.

Mikoto's happiness was visible to the naked eye. Her happiness infected Fugaku beside her. Fugaku looked at Mikoto out of the corner of his eye. The girl's smiling face was bright and bright. Gradually, he himself felt happy.

Hearing the footsteps gradually walking away, Hashirama, who had been lying silently on the river embankment, suddenly sat up.
