For a moment, he didn’t know what to say, and there was an unshakable feeling of unease in his heart. Fortunately, this uneasiness did not last long, and the door was opened from the outside. A gust of cold wind rushed in, and Tayuya entered, wrapped in a thick white coat, carrying food in her hands. The entrance light was on, and her shadow was cast on the half-open door. Perhaps because it was still broad daylight, she was momentarily stunned upon seeing a pair of unfamiliar shoes at the entryway. She looked around and instinctively hid the food behind her back. Since the entrance and the living room were at a 90-degree angle, she couldn’t see what was happening in the living room. Tayuya stood there blankly for a while, then turned around and closed the door quietly. After quickly changing her shoes, she still kept the food hidden behind her and crept towards the living room. The moment Naruto heard the sound, he immediately lay down on the couch and pretended to sleep while ‘watching’ the TV. It wasn’t until he sensed a shadow looming over him and smelled the scent of grilled food that he opened his eyes. Tayuya's long, fiery red hair cascaded down as she leaned over, seemingly studying him. Her golden eyes gleamed faintly, as if she was on the verge of activating her Cursed Seal. She didn't react much when she met Naruto's eyes. For about ten seconds, the two of them stared at each other in silence. Then, Tayuya reached out and gently touched Naruto's face, finally breaking into a slight smile. With a loud bang, she pulled out a large bag of grilled food from behind her. Because she used too much force, a few drops of hot oil spilled onto Naruto’s face. Naruto: "Huh?" "Here you go!" She said. Naruto wiped the few drops of oil from his face and set the food aside for now. He pointed to the room on the second floor and asked, “When did you buy that wind chime?” "Three years ago, I saw it and thought it looked like the one from your house, so I bought it." Tayuya replied without any hesitation. After pausing for a moment, she added. "By the way, how did you escape that time?" She was referring to the incident in Amegakure when Naruto had told her to flee. Knowing how strong Pain was, Tayuya naturally assumed that Naruto must have had a tough time getting away. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Oh, I found a way out." Naruto replied, following her lead, "After you escaped, did you go straight home?" "Well…" Tayuya hesitated, feeling a little guilty, "Did you look for me?" Naruto was about to say no, but he stopped himself. He frowned slightly and asked, "Why didn’t you go straight home? Didn’t I tell you to?" "I... I didn’t think you’d come looking for me." Tayuya lowered her head and pressed her legs together. "Forget it." Naruto sighed. He stood up and pulled her down, pressing her down onto the couch, "Let's eat first. The trouble at Amegakure has already been taken care of." "Oh, you got away safely?" She asked, assuming ‘taken care of’ meant that Naruto had successfully escaped. It never crossed her mind that Pain had already been completely dealt with. The overwhelming pressure from Pain was terrifying, and all of the people who go with her had died there. Tayuya had no doubt that if Naruto hadn’t shown up, she wouldn’t have survived either. She was already content with the fact that she had made it out alive. Though she didn’t fully understand what it meant to be alive, she knew it was better than being dead. Whenever she thought about dying and being alone again, she realized that staying alive was preferable. Traveling with Rogue Shinobi and exploring different places had been fun. There were so many things she didn’t understand, and so she had killed one group after another of people who tried to harm her. "It’s not exactly that. I mean, ‘taken care of’ as in those guys are dealt with." Naruto said, making a throat-slashing gesture while taking a bite of the food, his face smeared with oil. "Anyway, Amegakure has changed a lot. There’s probably a new group of people in charge now. The situation is a bit complicated and it's hard to explain it clearly at the moment." "That sounds impressive." Tayuya nodded. She was actually very smart, but she knew when not to dig too deep into a topic. Someone had once told her that guys, even if they didn’t show it, liked being praised. When a guy shares something with you, complimenting him can help you win his heart. "Yeah, I’m indeed impressive.” Naruto said with a smile. This response threw her off. It wasn’t what she had learned, and she didn’t know how to follow up the conversation. After thinking back to the advice from some of the older women, she realized that thick-skinned guys like Naruto were not easy to deal with. "Yeah, you’re impressive." She nodded seriously. They quickly finished the food, and Naruto clapped his hands, then got up and walked upstairs slowly. He mentioned that he was tired from traveling and was going to wash up and sleep. Tayuya’s eyes flickered for a moment, and she merely nodded and stepped aside. "Weird…" Naruto muttered as he stood on the stairs, but he didn’t dwell on it. The last bit of guilt in his heart disappeared like smoke. He wasn’t a sentimental person. His personality was always somewhat laid-back, with a bit of conscience, but not too much. The guilt he felt toward Tayuya wasn’t something he would keep hidden in his heart. As long as he acknowledged it, he would just find an appropriate moment to apologize. Naruto went upstairs, found a clean set of clothes from his seal space, and entered the bathroom. With a splash, he turned on the shower, letting the hot water drench his body. Meanwhile, Tayuyapressed herself against the wall outside the bathroom, biting her lower lip with a conflicted expression. She was too embarrassed to tell Naruto the truth. After escaping from Amegakure, she didn’t head straight back to Tanzaku Town in the Land of Fire. Instead, she went to the Land of Hot Water, where she consulted a group of older women about some adolescent issues. Those women seemed quite charming and appeared to be kindhearted people. When they learned that Tayuya was willing to spend money to solve her doubts, they were all very enthusiastic and refused to take her money. "To capture a man's heart, you need to learn some skills." "Skills are not important. What’s important is... I think you’re just right, little sister." Their eager discussion carried with it a warmth, and listening to the unbridled and explicit words, Tayuya’s mind was dazed. Her face flushed several times, and she barely remembered anything. A flood of advice came from all directions, overwhelming her. Even the female manager, who was standing by to urge these women to work, made an exception and stood aside, watching in amusement, smiling as she observed the lively scene. Amidst the haze of rouge and powder, someone suddenly blurted out, "Judging by her look, she probably doesn’t even know how to kiss properly, right?" Another woman replied bluntly, "Honestly, we probably don’t either." That remark brought the bustling room to a complete halt. The women fell into a brief, awkward silence, their expressions briefly going blank, and no one continued the conversation. Just then, the bathroom door clicked open, snapping Tayuya back to reality. "What are you doing here?" Naruto was startled. His naturally golden hair was soaking wet, and a white towel hung around his neck. "I-I want to take a bath too." Tayuya said in a panic. "Why are you taking a bath in the middle of the day?" Naruto stared at her with puzzled look, "Are you trying to catch up on sleep too? But didn't you just come back from buying food? Didn't you sleep last night?" "No, I didn’t want to sleep." After saying that, Tayuya trotted past him and into the bathroom. In the steamy bathroom, she let out a breath and leaned against the tub. She expertly tested the water temperature, and her heart warmed up little by little along with the water. She couldn't remember how long it had been since her heart beat so fast like this. The persistent thoughts swirling in her mind made her heart beat uncontrollably fast. With a splash, she slid into the water, her body curling up in the tub. Her mind was filled with chaotic thoughts, things she couldn’t share, things she had no answers for. She didn’t want to stay here anymore. For the first time, she felt a sense of discomfort with this place. She decided that once she figured some things out, she would leave. Meanwhile, in his room, Naruto collapsed into bed and immediately fell asleep. He never dwelled on things. No matter how big the problem was, he could always set it aside. If he needed to eat, he would eat. If he needed to drink, he would drink. If he needed to sleep, he would sleep. As a result, he slept deeply, from daytime until midnight.
