Chapter 56: Such Obvious Favoritism
"Itachi, I'm here to help you!"
Uchiha Yo got up and helped set up the tent.
"Itachi, am I doing this right?" Uchiha Ye asked, scratching his head.
Itachi glanced at the spot where Uchiha Hato was making a move, then without thinking, he took her hand. "Hato, spin around like this, and then..."
After the explanation, Itachi Uchiha belatedly realized what was happening. He quickly let go of Ye's hand, stole a glance at Ye's expression and saw that it hadn't changed at all. He breathed a sigh of relief but also felt a little lost.
Unable to stand it any longer, Anko bluntly said, "Ye, you're here to cause trouble for Itachi, aren't you!"
"And you two, could you please tone it down a bit?"
As she spoke, she stood up and pulled Uchiha Ye aside. She then helped set up a tent herself, and soon it was all set up.
Uchiha Ye was a little speechless. She had just been pretending to be stupid, not that she really didn't know how. But it seemed that she didn't play as well as them, she admitted that.
After they finished setting it up, Uchiha Ye spoke up, "Red Bean Sister, aren't you going to take out your tent and set it up with us?"
I waited for ages but got no response.
Uchiha Ye spoke again, "Anko-nee, you didn't forget to bring it, did you!"
"Never mind, it's fine if we didn't bring it. Anyway, the tent isn't too small, it's enough space for three people to sleep."
Hongdou scratched her head awkwardly and changed the subject, saying, "Aren't we going to find the teacher?"
"The teacher will naturally appear once we finish things here."
"Go to sleep for a while, you still have things to do later!"
Uchiha Ye suddenly said something mysteriously, then took the lead into the tent, made up the bedding, and lay down.
She couldn't help but recall the last time Yamato captured her; with a single slap, she got a house to live in—it couldn't be more awesome! Unfortunately, the wood-based magic she learned didn't have that function.
Not long after, Anko and Itachi also came in.
Seeing Uchiha Ye sleeping in the middle with a speechless expression, Hongdou thought, "This person really doesn't try to hide anything at all!"
"They're probably afraid she'll sleep next to the itachi!"
"Itachi is lucky. Ye is blatantly biased towards him, and what's more, he's so good-looking."
"I hope Itachi won't be ungrateful."
She turned to look at Itachi and saw his infatuated expression. "Well, she was really overthinking it."
"That Itachi definitely likes Uchiha Haku, those burning eyes of his are just...tsk tsk tsk..."
Why do I suddenly feel a bit full? I didn't eat much today. Hongdou touched her stomach and then closed her eyes, trying to avoid seeing it.
Uchiha Itachi lay beside Ye, his heart pounding. It took him a while to suppress his emotions. He turned his head to look at Ye, who had already closed his eyes, feeling incredibly satisfied.
"Itachi, stop staring at me and get some sleep." Uchiha Ye suddenly turned over and muttered, startling Uchiha Itachi.
Just as he was thinking about how to explain, he heard the sound of even breathing coming from the person not far away, who had obviously fallen asleep. Itachi was both amused and exasperated.
As he was preparing to fall asleep, a slight noise came from inside the tent, which quickly subsided.
By the light of the campfire outside, he noticed that Ye had kicked off her blanket, and her body was half-off the covers.
"Ye looks like this when she's asleep."
Itachi composed himself and prepared to get up to cover Ye with the blanket, when suddenly a hand landed on him, clearly caused by Ye turning over.
He took a deep breath and prepared to move Ye's hand away. The night was slightly cool, and even with the tent providing some shelter, it was still a bit chilly.
Uchiha Ye felt a chill and withdrew his hand, curling up into a ball.
Seeing this, Itachi quickly pulled most of the blanket off himself and covered Uchiha Hato with it.
Driven by her body's instincts, Uchiha Ha slowly moved toward the warm spot that attracted her, pressing herself tightly against Itachi.
Uchiha Itachi's mind went completely blank for a moment, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. This situation made him feel an unprecedented torment.
Time passed slowly, and Itachi finally recovered and prepared to move away, feeling very reluctant to leave the warmth he had just experienced.
"Take one more look at Ye now, just one more look."
Having made up his mind, Itachi lowered his head. Uchiha Ye seemed dissatisfied with the current position and moved closer, their lips touching.
