[Hokage] Thank you for loving me

When Sakura and Shinryu walked into the restaurant, everyone except Sasuke had already sat down and started eating.Seeing the two people walking in, the four maids quickly opened the seats, put clean tableware, and served a whole set of rich traditional meals, which looked exactly the same as the dishes eaten in the small village hotel before.

"Isn't this the breakfast Meihe made before?" Sakura muttered strangely.

Sitting next to her, Xinliu poured soy sauce on the fried egg, and said to the introduction: "Yes, Miwa-san is the chef of Rainbow City, Mr. Yamamoto's wife, and was also his apprentice. So the couple made The meals that came out were surprisingly similar in terms of the pairings and the taste of the dishes.”

"I see." Sakura stirred the miso soup in the bowl, thinking "Sasuke-kun should be happy to have such a delicious breakfast again", but found that there was no trace of his meal on the table.

"Sasuke-kun, are you still here?"

"I just arrived too." Fukuyama glanced around: "It seems he hasn't woken up yet?"

The head maid who had been standing behind Mrs. Fukuyama quickly replied, "If you're asking about the black-clothed guest from yesterday, he hasn't been to the restaurant yet."

"Could it be that he has already left?" Fukuyama's words made Sakura feel cold.

"No, when I went to treat that guest to dinner just now, I found that although he went out early in the morning, the sword and cloak were still in the house."

"That's good, maybe Sasuke-kun went for a walk." Fukuyama joked to Sakura with a smile: "Maybe he will fall in love with the environment here, so he decides to stay in Rainbow City."

"Yes." Sakura forced a smile, but secretly worried: "I don't know where Sasuke-kun has gone. I can't sense his chakra around here. I won't be able to see him all day today." Has it come to him?"

After eating breakfast for a while, Fukuyama suddenly raised his head and said, "By the way, Taichi, Xinliu, after breakfast, you two should go to the office with me and help me with some urgent official documents. Tomorrow is the enthronement ceremony, I have to Go and arrange the ceremony properly."

"Okay, my father."

"Hey——I don't need it?" Unlike Taiyi's straightforward answer, Xinliu yawned without motivation: "Anyway, I will leave in a few days. It doesn't matter anymore."

"Xin Liu, you can't say that. It has not been decided yet who will replace Father to stay in the Land of Fire. Maybe I will go in the end, and you stay here to assist him."

"Brother, didn't you hear what Father said yesterday? The Fire Nation's daimyo has already appointed me to go. Do we still dare to defy him?"

"This..." Tai Yi looked at his younger brother with some distress, and argued: "According to the covenant, as long as it is an important blood relative who holds real power. Even if I go to the Land of Fire in the end, that adult will accept it."

"Forget it, big brother." Xinliu smiled wryly, and looked at Fushan as if asking for proof: "Even if you are so enthusiastic and want to replace me, father and mother will be reluctant to part with you."

"..." Fukuyama pondered for a while, then raised his head and looked back at his second son: "Xinliu, it's not that we value someone more, so we send the other person out. It's that you are more like me when I was young, full of vitality , and you like to meet different people, and you have a talent for diplomacy. Whether it is your mother, me, or the ministers in the city, I think it is more appropriate for you to go, because you not only have the ability to maintain our alliance with the Fire Nation , can further strengthen the friendly relations between the two countries.”

"Okay, okay, let you arrange it." Fukuyama Xinliu blinked at his father, and changed the subject: "No matter what, as long as the female ninjas in Muye Village are as beautiful as you said, father, , and in good shape, I am willing to stay as long as I want."

"Hahaha, don't worry about that. Look at Sakura, isn't that a good proof?"

"Well, Sakura's face is really pretty," Xinliu turned her head, looked up and down at Sakura next to her, and after her gaze stayed on her chest for a while, she said regretfully, "The figure...is a little lacking. A little bit."

"Ha ha."

Hearing Xin Ryu's sexually harassing comments, coupled with such obvious hints about the shortcomings she cared about most, Sakura was so angry that she snapped the chopsticks in her hand with two fingers.

"Eh? I won't poke Nakasakura's pain point, right?" Seeing the half of the chopsticks rolling to her desk, Xinliu swallowed in fright, jumped up from her seat, and said, "I suddenly remembered that there is still For other matters, brother, I will leave the official documents to you alone!" He walked out of the restaurant quickly.

Taichi helplessly watched his younger brother go away, then turned around and said to Sakura, "I'm sorry, Miss Sakura, Xinliu has been more casual in his speech since he was a child, but he doesn't actually mean anything malicious, please don't take it to heart."

"Yes, when he goes to the Land of Fire, he will have to deal with everything alone, and he won't be as self-willed as he is now." Mrs. Fukuyama's eyes showed deep reluctance and love for her son. Sakura implored: "So, please, Xiao Sakura, don't care about the current Xinliu. If he has any accidents in the country of fire in the future, if he gets sick or injured, please help him."

Hearing such earnest entrustment, Sakura could somewhat understand the meaning of Aiko's eagerness in it, and she quickly replied: "Don't worry, Mrs. Fukuyama, as long as I can heal, I will definitely do my best."

"Xiao Ying, you are such a good girl, I really don't know how to thank you." Mrs. Fukuyama looked at Xiao Ying movedly, thought for a while, and then said: "How about I give you Xinliu?"

"Ah? Mother, your decision is too casual, right?"

"It's not casual. Sakura is not only the disciple of that Tsunade Hime, but also an outstanding medical ninja. There is no problem in terms of status or strength."

"Hahaha, honey, your suggestion is very good, so that Xinliu can have a reliable person to take care of him when he goes to the Land of Fire."

"Well, father and mother, you should ask Miss Sakura's wishes."

"Speaking of which, Sakura seems to like that young man named Uchiha Sasuke." Mrs. Fukuyama recalled the content of chatting with Sakura last night, and said regretfully.

"Hahaha, is Sasuke-kun? It seems that our Xinliu has a strong rival in love."

"That Sasuke-kun is quite handsome. However, in terms of appearance, our Xinliu is not inferior to him, and Xinliu has a very cheerful personality, and he is even better at making girls happy."

"That's right, that's right, compared to Sasuke-kun, our Shinryu has a better chance of winning."

Seeing his parents looking blindly optimistic, and talking further and further away on the original serious topic, Taiyi couldn't help complaining: "Miss Sakura already has someone she likes, and you still give her brother to her so casually, it's not right at all." I am grateful, but I am causing her trouble..."

Listening to the content of the chat on the table, Yumen, who had been silent by the side, felt a little annoyed. He frowned, put down the bowl in his hand, and said in a cold voice: "I'm full. Master Fukuyama, I'll wait for you at the door. "Then got up and walked outside.

"……Oh well."

When walking around Sakura's seat, Mimon looked down at her in displeasure, and Sakura couldn't help but be a little baffled:

"Obviously I was made fun of, why did Yumen give me a face? What a strange person."

Sasuke didn't show up until the end of breakfast, Sakura was somewhat disappointed and uneasy in her heart, she sat in the dining room, hoping to wait until he showed up.At this time, Mrs. Fukuyama came over and invited her to go shopping together.

"Look, you are still wearing yesterday's skirt, shall I take you to buy two new clothes?"

Sakura politely declined Mrs. Fukuyama's kindness, and said apologetically, "Actually, I have another request to ask Mrs. Fukuyama..."

"what?"

"I want to follow the chef of Rainbow City and learn how to cook the breakfast I ate today."

Hearing Sakura's request, Mrs. Fukuyama readily agreed, so the two came to the kitchen in the northeast corner of Rainbow City.This is a fairly large room, divided into two areas by a low wall. In one area, there are two rows of high platforms on which heating appliances such as boilers, ovens and ovens are placed, and in the other area are placed Huge refrigerator, neat dish racks, bright cutlery storage cabinets and two desks with marble countertops.In the kitchen, there were four busy chefs, four cleaning apprentices, three maids who were cleaning the utensils for breakfast, and a middle-aged man standing in the middle of the kitchen and giving orders loudly. With a serious face, he directed others to work.

"Mr. Yamamoto." Mrs. Fukuyama brought Sakura to the middle-aged man, and enthusiastically introduced: "This girl is □□ No Sakura, she likes the breakfast you made today very much, and would like to ask you to teach her. "

"Please, Mr. Yamamoto!" Thinking of Sasuke's surprised face when he ate the breakfast he made, Sakura couldn't help but accentuate her request.

Although they are both chefs and husband and wife, but unlike the gentle Meihe, Yamamoto looks quite fierce, more like a bloody wandering samurai.With a straight face, he looked at Sakura up and down, and said critically:

"No, I'm afraid such a girl can't even hold an iron pot, so she's not suitable for learning my cooking. Ma'am, you should take her back."

"Hey, don't be so strict." Mrs. Fukuyama seemed a little afraid of Yamamoto, she gave Sakura a embarrassed look, "She even healed your son's arm injury before."

"Oh? Thank you so much!" Yamamoto nodded to Sakura to express his gratitude, but he still firmly refused and said, "Unfortunately, 'Weak people will never be allowed to enter my kitchen', this is my cooking principles."

Sakura hurriedly defended herself: "Don't worry, I'm not weak at all. I'm quite strong both mentally and physically. Don't talk about carrying an iron pot, even if I chop it into pieces with bare hands, I can easily cook it." arrive."

As she said that, she picked up a beef leg bone waiting to be thawed on the counter, about the thickness of the mouth of a bowl, and easily split it with a knife, and the beef leg bone broke in two instantly.

"Oh, oh, it's amazing!" Mrs. Fukuyama clapped her hands in admiration.

Yamamoto immediately changed his refusal attitude, and patted Sakura on the shoulder boldly: "Yes, little girl, you passed!"

After successfully entrusting Sakura to Yamamoto, Mrs. Fukuyama left the kitchen contentedly, leaving Sakura nervously following behind her new teacher, walking around the kitchen to familiarize herself with the environment.

The two came to the cleaning table, and after standing still for a few seconds, Yamamoto suddenly said:

"Question, what is the first step of preparation before cooking?"

"...Washing your hands?" Sakura asked cautiously.

"Wrong, it's changing clothes."

(Eh? Then why did you bring me to stand in front of the sink.)

As soon as Yamamoto finished speaking, an apprentice handed Sakura a white coat and hat.Afraid that if she moved a little slower, she would annoy Yamamoto, Sakura took the overalls and quickly put them on.

Then, Yamamoto took Sakura to the refrigerated room. Through a thick glass door, one could see that it was filled with all kinds of meat and vegetables.

"Ask, what is the most important food in traditional cuisine?"

"Uh..." Sakura thought carefully this time, and replied, "Eggs?"

"Wrong, it's miso soup."

(Eh? Isn’t the answer to this kind of question different from person to person?)

Sakura was a little unconvinced in her heart, but she continued to quietly follow behind her new teacher, walking step by step.

Finally, Yamamoto returned to the desk and stopped.He knocked on the marble countertop, thought for a while, and finally asked:

"Ask, what is the key to cooking?"

"Strength?" Sakura recalled the first test and replied without hesitation.

"Wrong! It's love! The key to cooking is of course to incorporate love into the cooking. You don't even know such a basic thing!" Yamamoto couldn't help but roll his eyes at Sakura.

Hearing Yamamoto's words, and thinking of making a delicious breakfast for Sasuke in the next trip, Sakura wished to cook all her love into cooking immediately.

"Don't worry, teacher, my heart is full of love." Although it is a bit shameful to say this, in order to let Yamamoto see her determination, Sakura confidently stated: "I can't wait to make a loving Cooked."

"Very well, it's the momentum and determination." Yamamoto nodded with satisfaction, "Then, let's start. I will try to teach you within three days."

"Eh? Three days? Can't it be faster? For example, half a day?"

(I still want to go to Sasuke-kun to discuss travel in the afternoon.)

"You guy, are you fooling me?"

"No, no, absolutely not."

"If you want to learn quickly, stop talking nonsense and act quickly!"

"Okay! Teacher!"

(Woo... It's obvious that you have been asking some boring questions...)

Although she has the talent for dispensing medicine and the basics of cooking, it was already evening when Sakura fully learned the traditional breakfast method and left the kitchen.The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the promenade in the courtyard, pulling her tired figure far and long.

"Oh, I'm so tired, it's even more tiring than having to do surgery all day in the hospital." Sakura sighed heavily: "Facing a master like Mr. Yamamoto, it's a shame that Meihe can still fall in love with him." An admirable woman."

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Sasuke-kun all day today. I don't know where he went and whether he's back now. I hope to see him in the evening so that we can have a good talk with him about the trip."

Thinking of asking Sasuke to travel together, Sakura felt a little nervous, and her heart beat a few beats faster.She walked with a heavy heart, and unknowingly walked to a corner of the courtyard corridor.

"It seems to be a dead end ahead?" Sakura looked towards the dark front, but found that there seemed to be two people talking softly in the corner.One of them immediately noticed Sakura's arrival, looked up at her, then quickly hid to the other side of the corner, walked further and further, and finally disappeared in the darkness.

"Hehe, isn't this Sakura?" Another person walked towards Sakura from the corner, and greeted her in an intimate tone—it turned out to be Shinryu Fukuyama.

"Who was the one standing with you just now?" Sakura asked curiously.

"you saw it?"

"I didn't see it clearly, because it was a bit dark over there in the corner."

"Hehe, actually..." Xinliu leaned closer to Sakura's head, lowered her voice, and said ambiguously: "That is my secret lover who is dating me, and our relationship cannot be made public yet. Can you help me Keep this a secret?"

"..."

(Is it Xin Liu-kun's lover? But judging by the way that person moves, it is clearly the figure of a ninja. Moreover, I did sense the chakra of the other party, although it is a little weak.)

The more Sakura thought about it, the more she felt strange. She looked at Fukuyama Shinryu puzzled, wondering if he was lying or if he was really dating a ninja.

"What's the matter, Sakura? Why are you looking at me like this?" Xin Liu bent his beautiful peach eyes, looked back at Sakura's eyes with a smile, and gradually moved closer and closer: "Could it be that you... are jealous Is it?" Saying that, Xinliu gently held Xiaoying's wrist, trying to pull her into his arms.

Just when Sakura was hesitating whether to punch him because of the opponent's identity, the sleeve that Shinryu held onto Sakura's wrist suddenly burned.The black flame was attached to the clothes, flickering on and off in the aftermath of the setting sun, which looked extraordinarily weird.

"This, what is this?" Xin Liu quickly let go of Sakura's hand, took a few steps back, and waved his arms desperately, trying to extinguish the flame.

"Sasuke-kun?" Sakura looked to the other side of the corridor in surprise - Sasuke stood there expressionlessly, looking at Fukuyama Shinryu coldly.
