"Teacher Kurenai, are you really not going to drink a little?"
Uzumaki Naruto asked somewhat unwillingly, looking at Kurenai Yuhi who was still eating barbecue.
"Hehe… No, I have a mission tomorrow."
Kurenai Yuhi shook her head, amused.
Looking at Uzumaki Naruto's disappointed expression, she didn't know why, but she suddenly felt her mood improve.
"Sigh…"
Hearing Kurenai Yuhi's answer, Uzumaki Naruto couldn't help but sigh.
He finally had this opportunity, but Kurenai Yuhi wouldn't drink.
How frustrating.
"Hinata, eat more barbecue."
Uzumaki Naruto scooped all the barbecue into Hyuga Hinata's bowl.
"Naruto, you and Hong-jiejie eat too."
Hyuga Hinata said shyly.
It was too embarrassing that all this barbecue was being devoured by her.
"I'm not hungry right now."
"Hong-jiejie definitely isn't hungry either."
"You just eat."
Uzumaki Naruto said deliberately.
"Pfft!"
Seeing Uzumaki Naruto sulking like a child, Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This guy,
He was even a transmigrator,
Why was he acting like a child?
Just because she didn't drink as he wanted?
Why was he throwing a tantrum?
"Sigh… I suddenly feel like having a drink."
Kurenai Yuhi deliberately stretched and pretended to talk to herself.
"Hong-jiejie, come on, if you want to drink, then drink."
"I'll pour it for you."
Upon hearing Kurenai Yuhi's words, Uzumaki Naruto's expression immediately changed from cloudy to sunny.
He picked up a glass and filled it for Kurenai Yuhi.
"Such a brat…"
Seeing his expression, Kurenai Yuhi drained her cup of sake.
She realized that if she didn't let this lecher take advantage of her today, this meal would be ruined.
"Hong-jiejie, you can really hold your liquor!"
"Here... I'll pour you another."
Uzumaki Naruto said, pouring Kurenai Yuhi another drink.
"Brat, you want me to suffer to death just drinking?"
"Get me some grilled meat!"
Kurenai Yuhi glared at Uzumaki Naruto, pouting playfully.
"Ah... how could I forget that?"
Uzumaki Naruto chuckled awkwardly, picking up his chopsticks to grab a piece of grilled meat for Kurenai Yuhi.
But when his gaze fell on the grill, he found it was completely empty.
"Naruto... I'm sorry, I ate all the grilled meat."
Hyuga Hinata lowered her head shyly.
"It's fine."
"Waiter, ten more plates of grilled meat!"
"Hinata, just eat as much as you want."
Uzumaki Naruto said with a smile.
"Mhm."
Hyuga Hinata nodded.
Before long, ten plates of grilled meat were brought over.
Uzumaki Naruto turned the heat to maximum and placed the meat on the grill.
Then, he gaped in shock.
Hinata's speed at eating grilled meat... was a bit too fast, wasn't it?
Her chopsticks moved swiftly and accurately, picking up a slice of grilled meat with every strike.
The most crucial thing was that Hinata's chopsticks never stopped moving.
In just a few tens of seconds, the grilled meat on the grill was almost completely gone.
This was just grilled meat.
If it were other food, her speed would probably be even faster.
"This is truly amazing."
Uzumaki Naruto couldn't help but exclaim.
Although Hinata ate a lot and quickly, her eating manners were surprisingly elegant.
In just ten short minutes, ten plates of grilled meat had been completely devoured by Hinata.
"Waiter, ten more plates!"
Uzumaki Naruto called out again.
Hinata's speed at eating grilled meat got faster and faster.
By the end, the waiter couldn't even bring the meat out fast enough to keep up with her eating speed... "*Burp*~"
Hinata put down her chopsticks and couldn't help but let out a satisfied burp.
From childhood to adulthood, this was the first time she had eaten so much.
"Huh?"
"Naruto-kun, Hong-jiejie, why are you looking at me?"
Hyuga Hinata asked, a little puzzled.
"Hinata, your appetite is actually this big!"
Kurenai Yuhi asked, her eyes wide.
A full forty large plates of grilled meat!
All of it was eaten by Hinata.
You know, an adult male's appetite at most would be four or five plates.
Hinata ate a full forty plates!
That's ten times that of an adult man!
"Oh!"
"I... I didn't notice."
Only after Kurenai Yuhi's reminder did Hyuga Hinata come back to her senses.
Looking at the mountain of stacked plates in front of her, she awkwardly stuck out her tongue.
She had been so engrossed in eating that she had completely forgotten how much she had consumed.
"Hinata, where did all that food you ate go?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked, looking at Hyuga Hinata's slender body.
How could such a small body hold so much food?
"Teacher Kurenai, Naruto said I have two pet bears inside me."
"Everything I eat gets absorbed by them."
Hyuga Hinata said innocently.
"Pervert!"
Kurenai Yuhi cursed Naruto under her breath.
What pet bears?
Shameless.
"Come, Hong-jiejie."
"I'll toast you again."
Uzumaki Naruto filled Kurenai Yuhi's glass.
Kurenai Yuhi snorted softly, tilting her head back and downing it.
Her originally fair cheeks had turned rosy due to the alcohol, making her look incredibly cute.
"Yo~"
"Yuhi, what a coincidence."
Just then, a surprised voice rang out.
Immediately after, Asuma Sarutobi walked over, a cigarette dangling from his lips.
Then, Asuma Sarutobi's eyes lit up.
Kurenai Yuhi today was completely different from usual.
Not only was she wearing delicate light makeup, but due to drinking, her cheeks also had two soft pink blushes.
That slightly tipsy expression combined with her perfect features made Asuma Sarutobi's heart pound.
"Yuhi, why are you drinking alone here?"
"Come, I'll drink with you."
Asuma Sarutobi acted as if he hadn't seen Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Hinata, picking up a glass and preparing to pour himself a drink.
"Asuma, I told you to stop pestering me."
"Get out!"
Kurenai Yuhi said, frowning.
"Yuhi, what happened last time was my fault."
"I shouldn't have smoked in front of your students."
As he spoke, Asuma Sarutobi remembered the cigarette still in his mouth and quickly threw it on the ground.
"Yuhi, please forgive me."
"It's not a matter of forgiving or not, it's that I don't like you, understand?"
"Hurry up and leave, and don't bother me again."
Kurenai Yuhi waved her hand impatiently, emboldened by the alcohol.
After knowing her original future trajectory, Kurenai Yuhi felt a strong aversion towards Asuma Sarutobi.
In this life, she would absolutely not let this guy disrupt her life again.
"Yuhi, just give me a chance, okay?"
"As long as we spend some time together, I believe you'll accept me."
Asuma Sarutobi said patiently.
"Get lost!"
Kurenai Yuhi stared at Asuma Sarutobi, her eyes gradually turning cold.
She had already made it so clear, yet he was still pestering her relentlessly.
In that case, even if he was the Hokage's son, she wouldn't give him any more face.
Kurenai Yuhi didn't intentionally lower her voice, so the other people in the grilled meat restaurant all looked over curiously, wanting to understand what was happening.
"Yuhi, you're drunk."
"I'll take you out of here first."
Feeling the gazes around them, Asuma Sarutobi's face darkened, and he reached out to grab Kurenai Yuhi's arm.
*Slap!*
With a crisp sound, Asuma Sarutobi's hand was slapped away.
"I say..."
"Hong-jiejie told you to get lost, didn't you hear her?"
Uzumaki Naruto stood in front of Kurenai Yuhi, staring fearlessly at Asuma Sarutobi.
