"Why doesn't she come in person?"
"I'm afraid the timing will be wrong."
Hinata Xia placed the gift box containing pastries on the low table.
It is indeed very likely that the time would be misaligned, as she and Qingsi had missed each other several times.
Hinata Xia didn't dare to imagine what Hinata Ginka's expression would be if she went to look for Qingsi several times but found that he was not at home.
"Tsk, so insincere?"
Qingsi chuckled and looked up at her. Those eyes made Hinata Xia feel inexplicably pressured.
"If you don't want to come, don't come."
"Qingsi, it's not like that, it's..."
Looking at Hinata Xia who wanted to explain, Qingsi spoke first:
"My time is limited. I don't have time to deal with the prejudiced Hyuga clan. If you have anything to say, please talk to our clan leader."
Qingsi shook his head.
Hinata Xia's face was bitter and she was worried.
She knew very well that if she could not send back accurate information this time, what awaited her would not be just a reprimand.
Hinata Xia witnessed with his own eyes the "Caged Bird Curse" being activated on someone from the branch family, and the pain was so excruciating that he wished he were dying.
Hinata Xia felt a chill at the thought that such punishment might fall on her.
"Qingsi-kun, what exactly do you want to do?"
"Shouldn't you ask your Madam Zong this question?"
Qingsi couldn't help laughing when he saw Hinata Xia, whose eyes seemed to be about to tear up.
The Hyuga clan is a clan that has taken feudal rule to the extreme.
In addition to the clan leader's lineage, there are many other branches, such as the main family like Hinata Xiao.
However, among the offspring born into the main family, only the eldest son can continue to be elected as the head of the family. If he cannot become the second son of the main family, he will be branded with the "caged bird curse".
Just like Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi, the twin brothers, became the younger brother just because Hizashi was born a little younger.
So they could only carve a curse mark on their foreheads and become a separate family.
The other branches of the family, regardless of whether they are the eldest sons or not, all have the same fate.
But the Hyuga clan, which seems so strict and hierarchical, also likes to have double standards.
Between Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga, who was cursed?
Hinata Hizashi, who was born a few minutes later and became a branch family, and whose cause of death was a "scapegoat", became a laughing stock.
Hinata Xia lowered her head, bit her lips, and waited for Qingsi's response.
Qingsi did not rush to answer. He just looked at her indifferently, with a faint smile still on the corner of his mouth.
"Are you afraid that she will punish you?" he suddenly asked.
"……No."
Hinata Xia quickly denied it.
The Hyuga clan has strict rules. If the main clan members knew that she was gossiping, they would definitely say that she was disobedient and had a problem with the Hyuga clan.
"You know what? Snakes shed their skin every once in a while, getting rid of the old skin and becoming stronger."
Kiyoshi said.
Hinata Xia frowned slightly, not understanding what he meant by suddenly bringing this up.
Qingsi raised his head and looked straight at her:
"Is it true that separation of the family can never change one's fate?"
In fact, there are ways to remove this curse in the ninja world, such as brute force, allowing the curse to destroy the brain and eyes and then revive.
Hinata Xia's breathing paused.
This is a topic that cannot be discussed at all!
Seeing Hinata Xia's face change slightly and her head lowered, Qingsi stopped talking.
He put it down, picked up the tea with his other hand, took a sip, and continued:
"Forget it, regarding the matter of Hinata Ginka, you can also pay a small price to regain my tolerance."
Qingsi stroked the white snake's smooth scales.
"What is...the price?"
Hinata Xia looked into Qingsi's dark eyes, and her feeling of uneasiness became more severe.
The last time, Qingsi made her reveal the humiliation of the "Caged Bird Curse Seal".
What will Qingsi do this time?
"take it easy."
Qingsi began to look at Hinata Xia's clothes.
A white apron was worn over the conservative robe, making it look like a maid's uniform.
The seemingly restrained and conservative clothing could not completely conceal her figure.
The apron around her waist makes the curve of her waist more obvious. Although her posture is upright and restrained, the youthfulness of her figure is still inevitably revealed.
Feeling Qingsi's aggressive gaze, Hinata Xia's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. She subconsciously tensed her body, her fingertips curled slightly, and the hem of her skirt was unconsciously tightened above her knees.
Her palms were quietly soaked with cold sweat, and the sticky touch made her more and more uneasy, but she had no way to escape.
If she refuses, what will happen to her?
Once this thought comes to mind, it becomes like a nightmare that can't be shaken off.
She couldn't resist. Or rather, she didn't dare to think about the consequences of resisting.
Hinata Xia had to consider that this was her last chance to talk to Seiji.
After returning, Hinata Ginka didn't care whose fault it was, she would just think that she was not doing her job well.
"Okay...Okay, Seiji-kun, as long as I can do it, I can do it."
Hinata Xia had no choice but to say this.
She regretted it the moment she said it.
No one knows what Qingsi will ask for.
But then I thought about what she said was about what she could do, and there was nothing she could do about things she couldn't do even if she mentioned them.
But Qingsi's next words still made Hinata Xia's face turn pale.
"Don't you feel a little hot?"
Qingsi's gaze moved to Hinata Xia who was kneeling on the tatami.
Because she was in a kneeling position, Hinata Xia kept her knees together, her calves tucked back, and her delicate instep pressed against the wooden floor.
The white apron tightly covered the lines of her legs, but the soft fabric still fit slightly with her movements, faintly outlining the slender and well-proportioned contours of her calves.
You can vaguely see her white ankles, and she is wearing white socks.
"Yeah."
Hinata Natsu's voice was already trembling with tears.
She knew exactly what Qingsi was talking about.
Ninjas receive a lot of education, which naturally includes how to distinguish gazes.
But this is nothing compared to the possible punishment that Hinata Ginka might face.
Hinata Xia hesitated for a moment, then closed her eyes and sighed.
Then slowly, he changed his sitting position.
…………
There are many beautiful sights in Konohagakure Village.
It wasn't the first time Qingsi had seen the scenery.
Even though he had seen it with Samui before, seeing Hinata Xia's aggrieved and submissive look again today still made him feel a little amused.
This is different from Samui.
For Hinata Xia, who received a feudal and old-fashioned education since childhood, such things would seem very embarrassing.
Hinata Xia is still too young at the moment, and there is no need to do so much for someone like her.
Qingsi just wants to tease her now.
After Hinata Ginka arrives, we can stimulate the power of the pupils in depth.
A woman like Hinata Ginka, who has a plump figure but a bad personality.
A just correction must be made.
"I accepted Hinata Ginka's rudeness and went back to tell her that I'll be free after the Chunin Exams next month."
Qingsi chuckled and watched Hinata Xia hurriedly stand up and walk quickly towards the door.
Hinata Xia's steps were a little stiff. When she reached the entrance, she paused when she heard Qingsi's words. She tightened the corners of her clothes with her fingertips and rubbed her legs, as if trying hard to make herself look less embarrassed.
She bit her lower lip, suppressing all the surging emotions and feeling regretful.
But if she doesn't do this, she will still regret it.
You can only choose between bad and very bad.
There weren't many options for her to choose from.
This is the fate of the separated family.
After returning to the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Xia walked very slowly, as if all the strength in her body had been drained. Her steps were light and her head was buzzing.
Even when she goes out on weekdays, she wears thick clothes, wraps herself tightly, and minimizes exposed skin.
But today she...
Such a lack of etiquette and shame made Hinata Xia's cheeks hot.
She took a deep breath, straightened her collar, and straightened her already neatly arranged apron again, as if there was something dirty.
Finally, Hinata Natsu went to report to Hinata Ginka.
"Qingsi agreed and agreed to have time after the high school entrance exam."
She knelt in front of Hinata Ginka, her tone calm as if she was reporting a trivial task.
Unfortunately, only she herself knows what price she paid.
If her tribe members knew about this, she would never be able to marry out in the tribe.
Hinata Ginka looked at her, nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.
"You did very well."
she says.
"Yes, Madam Yinhua."
Hearing the rare praise from Hinata Ginka, Hinata Xia didn't know whether to laugh because the matter was over.
I should cry for my own efforts.
She could only hope that Hinata Ginka and Seiji would be able to reconcile smoothly after next month.
……
After going out, Hinata Xia walked slowly. When she reached the training ground, she happened to meet Hinata Tetsu.
"Axia."
Hinata Tetsu suddenly called out to Hinata Xia.
