Chapter 5 - Oh, it smells so good!

Curiosity kills the cat.

  This law also applies to women or girls.

  When the opposite sex has no interest in getting to know you, it means you have no chance, no matter how well you perform.

  But as long as the opposite sex's desire to explore arises, it means that you have succeeded 1/3. The rest is to show yourself like a peacock spreading its tail and make her deeply fascinated by it.

  It's a very old-fashioned love story, but it's very real and has a sense of returning to nature.

  There is a new bet, but the winner has not yet been decided, and the interactions between Chishima Chiba and Tsunade end here.

  After all, the two had just known each other for less than half a day, and it was impossible for them to become so familiar all of a sudden. Even if Chishima Chiba wanted to, with Tsunade's personality, she would not let Chishima Chiba do what she wanted, and if she showed too much or was deliberate, it would backfire.

  The way to get along long-term is to relax in moderation, not be clingy, and slowly break through the relationship between two people.

  Everything should be done naturally. There's nothing wrong with using some tricks at the beginning, but if you use too many of them it will seem deliberate and end up looking inferior.

  Ninja teacher Masahiro Takezawa came back and gave the first lesson of the new semester to the students in the class, and then dismissed the class early.

  After all, the first day is just for familiarization, and classes will resume normally from the second day.

  Facing the setting sun, Chishima Chiba and Tsunade walked side by side, both of them with puffy cheeks and candies in their mouths.

  "Are you going home after school?" asked Chishima Chiba.

  "Yes." Tsunade returned to her cool and aloof look and answered briefly.

  "Then..." Chishima Chiba waved at the school gate, "See you tomorrow!"

  "But the bet is not over yet..." Tsunade's expression fluctuated, and she spoke a little faster, "How did you..."

  "Just consider it as my loss." Chishima Chiba smiled gently, "I just want to make you happy. The bet is not that important."

  "But..."

  Tsunade tried to speak more but was interrupted by Chiba Chiba.

  "Tsunade, smile more often and don't let external factors affect your good mood. Besides... you look very beautiful when you smile, really!"

  Tsunade's bright brown eyes met Chishima Chiba's clear and sincere gaze, and her heart skipped a beat.

  He looks good when he smiles, and he's very gentle...

  call out.

  A slight parabolic sound was heard, and Tsunade subconsciously reached out and grabbed. When she opened her palm, two candies with beautiful outer coatings appeared in her palm.

  "Remember, if you put one in your mouth when you are unhappy, everything will be fine. Similarly, if you put one in your mouth when you are happy, your happiness will be doubled."

  Chishima Chiba withdrew his hand, struck a pose that he thought was free and easy, put his hands in his pockets and walked forward on his own.

  He had only taken two steps when Tsunade caught up with him, a smile in her eyes.

  Chishima Chiba was also confused. Was his relationship with Tsunade progressing so quickly?

  There is no prompt for the dog system to hang up...

  Tsunade said nothing, but caught up with Chishima Chiba in just a few steps and walked side by side with him again.

  "My house is over there."

  Tsunade tried her best to keep her tone calm, but her fluttering eyelashes still betrayed her.

  "…"

  Chishima Chiba was speechless. He had laid so much groundwork at the school gate, and now they were just passing by?

  What the hell!

  "Ahem." He coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, "Haha, it's on the way. I wanted to cheat, but I can't get away with it this time..."

  "Wow, you want to default on the bet?" Tsunade's bright brown eyes suddenly widened. "You said that because you were about to lose, right?"

  "Rogue..."

  "Well, since you've discovered me and caught me in the act, then... I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat!"

  Chishima and Chiba successfully eased the embarrassment and made a dinner appointment, which naturally made them seem more generous.

  "Go eat lotus leaf chicken!"

  Tsunade immediately made the decision, "The chicken made in that restaurant is so tender and tastes great!"

  "Then let's have the lotus leaf chicken." Qiandao Qianye waved her hand, "Give me two, one for you and one for me, pick them up and start eating!"

  "But... I think I can accept the price, right?"

  Tsunade was unable to respond to Chishima Chiba's sudden change of topic. She could only raise her eyes slightly and glance at Chishima Chiba.  

  "The lotus leaf chicken in that store is a bit expensive. How about... let's do it another day." Tsunade's eyes were a little dim while she spoke, making it hard to understand.

  "No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Chishima Chiba took Tsunade's hand and said, "I have a better place, I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

  "Really?!" Tsunade's eyes lit up again, and she temporarily ignored the fact that Chishima Chiba was holding her hand.

  "Of course, I won't lie to you."

  Chishima Chiba responded with a smile, and soon pulled Tsunade away, quickly disappearing around the corner of the alley.

  At this moment, the half-grown children who had been staring at the two's backs had empty eyes and looked hopeless, as if the most important thing had been taken away from them.

  …

  "Boss, give me two chickens."

  "Boss, pack these condiments for me."

  "boss..."

  Chishima Chiba took Tsunade to walk around the streets and bought a whole lot of food.

  Tsunade went from being excited at the beginning to gradually becoming bored, and finally her anger and temper grew higher and higher.

  "Chiba!"

  Tsunade puffed up her cheeks, "Would you mind not stuffing all your shopping on me!"

  "Ahem, I forgot for a moment."

  Qiandao Qianye scratched his head awkwardly, "It's mainly because you didn't say it just now, so I naturally..."

  While speaking, Chishima Chiba helped Tsunade share some of the burden and took the two chickens that were flapping their wings from her arms.

  "Humph, it was agreed that the loser would treat you to a meal, but this is how you treat him." Tsunade pouted, "Eat it raw with the seasoning you bought?"

  "The original flavor of the chicken is more tender, isn't it?"

  "You're still laughing?!" Tsunade was a little upset, "Can you be serious?"

  "I'm not kidding you. We can definitely make a delicious dish out of these." Looking at Tsunade, "Have you ever tried beggar's chicken?"

  "No!"

  Tsunade responded impatiently. Although she didn't leave immediately, she stopped talking to Chishima Chiba.

  Chishima Chiba was not annoyed. Anyway, Tsunade would definitely swallow her tongue when eating beggar's chicken later.

  The two of them carried the ingredients along the way in silence, and Tsunade also had a cold face, showing her cool and aloof loli style.

  Chishima Chiba didn't find any topics to liven up the atmosphere. He just jogged with Tsunade to the outskirts of Konoha Village.

  As soon as they arrived at the destination, Chidao Chiba got busy. In less than an hour, he clapped his hands and announced that the beggar's chicken was done!

  Although Tsunade was interested in watching Chishima and Chiba busying around at the beginning, the unhappiness in her heart slowly dissipated. She had never experienced things like picnics many times.

  But when she saw Chishima Chiba digging the beggar's chicken out of the charcoal fire, she lost her composure again.

  "How can you eat this mud?"

  "Crack open the mud shell and you'll experience the world's most delicious food!"

  Hearing Chishima and Chiba blowing vigorously, Tsunade raised her pink fist doubtfully and broke the mud shell into pieces with one blow.

  However, he used too much strength and the mud shell broke into pieces.

  Tsunade secretly glanced at Chishima Chiba and was relieved when she saw that the other party didn't show any special expression.

  But the next second, a smell of meat mixed with the unique fragrance of soil wafted into Tsunade's nose, instantly bringing her attention back on track.

  "It smells so good!!!"

  His bright brown eyes suddenly widened, he raised his hand to wipe it on his clothes, and regardless of the heat, he broke off a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.

  "It smells so good!"

  This is not the time for you to dislike...

  Chishima Chiba curled his lips and said nothing, then joined the group of people eating.
