Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let the teacher down."

The group chatted for a while, listening to Tsunade boast about her glorious past of "winning money".

It was getting late.

Baiyun Qingye stood up and said, "Then I'll head back now."

"Huh? Is Aoba going back already?"

Sakura, still lost in the beauty, was immediately brought to her senses when she saw Shirokumo Aoba suddenly stand up.

They looked at each other with a somewhat reluctant expression.

Shirokumo Aoba touched Sakura's hair again.

"It's almost time."

Sakura looked disappointed; she felt like only a short time had passed.

Seeing Sakura's dejected look, Tsunade couldn't help but feel a little mischievous.

"In that case, why don't you let Sakura sleep at your place tonight?"

"what?"

"what!"

Although they are the same interjection, they represent different emotions.

"Great!"

Sakura was so happy she almost jumped up from her seat, her heart pounding with joy.

At this moment, the movements of the inner and outer Sakuras were synchronized.

“Perfect timing. Sakura still has a lot of questions about medical matters. Aoba, you can teach her later.”

Bai Yunqingye's eyes widened. "You're the teacher! If you won't teach, then I'll teach!"

Do you realize that you're pushing your disciple into a fire pit?

If Tian Tian and the others found out about this, things would really get out of hand.

But Tsunade didn't care about any of that and happily kicked them both out.

Standing outside the house, Baiyun Qingye's head was still buzzing.

He glanced again at Sakura, whose brows were filled with joy and shyness.

I couldn't help but sigh. I couldn't possibly send him home at this hour.

……

Inside the bedroom.

Having finished showering and changed into their pajamas, Shirakumo Aoba and Sakura were sitting cross-legged on the bed, staring at each other.

Shirokumo Aoba's expression remained unchanged, while Sakura remained shy and dared not look up.

They're all kids now, so they all wear the same pajamas...

However, Shirokumo Aoba's pajamas looked a bit too big on Sakura.

"Sakura, was there anything you didn't understand while you were studying at the hospital today?"

Bai Yunqingye asked directly, otherwise the atmosphere would be somewhat awkward.

"Huh? We finally get to be alone together at night, and Aoba just plans to learn about medical knowledge together?"

Sakura's face was already bright red, and Shirokumo Aoba was worried that she would faint.

It's good that she fainted, then we won't have to be in such an awkward situation.

"Then what else do you want to do?"

With our hardware, it's not compatible with anything else.

Even if the hardware allows it, the censorship beast won't allow it.

"Huh?"

Sakura was a little confused: "What else can we do..."

"me……"

She was also a little surprised; she just didn't want such a good opportunity to be alone late at night to be wasted.

Although Aoba doesn't usually neglect her, she prefers the feeling of having her all to herself rather than sharing with others.

"Sakura, you can lie here for now."

Baiyun Qingye suddenly patted the spot on her side.

"what?"

Sakura, somewhat puzzled, slowly moved over and lay down next to Shirokumo Aoba.

Shirokumo Aoba also changed her posture, then lifted Sakura's head and gently placed it on her lap.

Before Bai Yunqingye could make any other moves, he already felt as if there was a furnace on his thigh, radiating terrifying heat.

When he looked down, Sakura's face was already burning red...

He could also hear a strong heartbeat echoing throughout the bedroom.

What kind of "Emperor Engine" is this?

Baiyun Qingye was both amused and exasperated.

Sakura, who was resting her head on Shirokumo Aoba's lap, felt as if she were surrounded by the other's unique aura, and felt a sudden dizziness.

Her eyes were tightly closed. She didn't know what Bai Yunqingye was going to do, but she was about to lose consciousness.

Then she felt two fingers, carrying a calming force, pressing on her temples and slowly massaging them.

A gentle force was slowly calming her tense and excited heart.

"Um……"

Gradually, Sakura's mood calmed down completely, her breathing became steady, and finally, she fell into a deep sleep.

"call--"

Seeing Sakura asleep, Shirakumo Aoba breathed a sigh of relief; otherwise, the atmosphere would probably have continued to be awkward.

He's given Tsunade plenty of massages lately, so he's already mastered the technique.

Even if I don't become a ninja in the future, if I open a blind massage parlor in Konoha, I'm sure I'll have a constant stream of customers.

He laid the sleeping Sakura on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then lay down next to her, covering himself with another blanket.

This is his home, his bed, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with him sleeping in his own bed.

Moreover, his bed is quite large; if you're tired, several people can sleep in it without any problem.

But I need to talk to Sakura about it tomorrow morning, and I have to remember to keep it a secret.

……

"Hmph! This brat!"

"Lady Tsunade, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm just a little annoyed."

-

the next day!

noon!

Two figures were already standing by the stream behind the mountain.

Baiyun Qingye was fishing with a wooden stick.

Strangely enough, even though he used the same method as Naruto, he hadn't caught a single fish in the past few months.

However, he was not idle at this time; he was holding a stone in his right hand.

It is cutting continuously with wind-attribute chakra, as if it is carving.

This can also be considered a form of his cultivation, especially suitable for use when he has nothing to do or is waiting for someone.

Sakura sat quietly beside him, watching Shirokumo Aoba intently.

He was more focused than him.

However, every time Bai Yun Qingye looked at her, she would blush and turn her head away.

Pretending to admire the scenery, she avoided eye contact with him.

Sakura has been in this strange state ever since she woke up this morning.

It's practically like she got Hinata's script from the original work.

It ignites instantly.

They've already reached a point where communication is impossible.

He already had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

I waited a while longer.

Tenten, Ino, and Hinata arrived together.

When they saw Baiyun and Qingye, they started greeting them from afar.

"Huh? Sakura, you seem a little different today?"

As soon as she arrived, Ino posed a profound question.

"Now that you mention it, it does seem to be true."

Tenten and Hinata both looked at Sakura with confusion.

In the past, Sakura would have greeted them happily, but today she seemed a little afraid to look at them.

"No...no, I...I'm just the same as before, aren't I?"

Sakura stammered as she spoke, her face flushed, her eyes darting around, and she dared not meet the eyes of the three of them.

This scene made Baiyun Qingye's eyelids twitch, but she tried her best to remain calm.

He miscalculated. He originally thought that Sakura's personality would allow her to control her expressions, but he had overestimated her.

has a problem!

The three of them narrowed their eyes as they looked at Sakura's current state. Tenten looked directly at Shirakumo Aoba and asked.

"Qingye, you didn't do anything bad behind our backs while we were away, did you?"

"What bad things can we do? Just chat and fish, what else can we do?"

Bai Yunqingye said calmly, "That's true."

So no matter how closely the three of them observed his subtle expressions, they couldn't see anything wrong.

But Shirokumo Aoba was fine, while Sakura next to him couldn't help but tremble.

The scene she saw when she woke up this morning had a huge impact on her.

So now, apart from being somewhat afraid to face Bai Yun Qingye, she felt both the excitement and joy of successfully raiding their home, and a slight sense of indebtedness to the three of them.

She really wanted to brag about it in front of the three of them, but she was worried that it would damage the relationship between the sisters.

In short, Sakura is currently experiencing a lot of conflicting feelings.

There was definitely a problem!

Although there was no clue on Shirokumo Aoba's face, Sakura completely gave herself away.

"Sakura, they say a wise person knows when to yield, so tell the truth!"

"That's right, Sakura, if you don't tell the truth, we'll have to find a way to pry your mouth open?"

Tenten and Ino approached Sakura slowly with unfriendly expressions, beginning to put pressure on her.

Hinata silently moved behind Sakura to prevent her from escaping.

"No...no, nothing's wrong."

Sakura lowered her head, not daring to meet the three people's gazes.

Her self-deceiving explanation undoubtedly confirmed the suspicions of all three of them.

They had already formed a pincer movement, surrounding Sakura in the middle.

Just as Shirokumo Aoba was about to speak, looking at the pitiful-looking Sakura, a loud shout suddenly interrupted him.

"White clouds and green leaves!"

Sasuke was charging towards him, his brows furrowed with confidence.

Surprisingly, Baiyun Qingye felt a sense of familiarity at that moment.
