Chapter 280 - Chapter 281: Alone Time With Konan

Although he was going further and further down the path of being a scumbag, Yami still fulfilled his basic duties as a man conscientiously without a trace of laziness.

At least with so many women in the family, none of them said he was incapable.

After eating and drinking, Kurotsuchi fell asleep contentedly. Sweat wet her hair and stuck to her face.

Yami looked at the girl with a rosy face. Although he did not know why, he could see that the sadness that was once hidden between Kurotsuchi's brows had disappeared. Even in her deep sleep, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.

He guessed that it might have something to do with Ōnoki. Has this old man become completely honest?

However, Yami was not the type to get to the bottom of things. No matter what the reason was, things were moving in a good direction and the situation was also moving in a diversified direction. As long as he was happy, that was enough.

Gently tucking in the corner of the quilt for Kurotsuchi, who loved to kick the quilt, Yami quietly left the room, spread his perception, and soon found the Chakra belonging to Konan.

At this time, Konan was in the auditorium that was temporarily built for the wedding. She stood on the second floor and looked at the people busying about below. Her eyes were distracted, as if she was in a daze.

However, when Konan heard the footsteps, she immediately came to her senses and turned around.

After seeing that it was Yami, she unconsciously looked away and greeted him in a low voice, "You're out."

Yami walked to the railing, stood side by side with Konan, and nodded with a smile. "I heard that you agreed. I was so happy that I could not practice anymore. At least we should talk about it after the wedding, right?"

In the past, Konan always used coldness as a protective color, and she was expressionless when facing anyone. But now, after hearing Yami's teasing, she could hardly keep it up.

Konan glared at Yami fiercely. "My promise to marry you does not mean I like you. At least I do not like you yet."

"This is just a task you gave me, do not think too much about it."

"I understand. I understand." Yami nodded repeatedly. "It does not matter whether we like it or not. It is more important for the dozen of us to live a good life."

Konan was speechless. She found that she could always hear all kinds of strange words from Yami's mouth.

There were a few staff members around, but they wisely left after seeing Yami appear. Now there were only Yami and Konan in the entire hall.

Once the two fell silent, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward and ambiguous.

Seeing Yami just staring at the paper flowers on her head, Konan felt her face flush and she unconsciously started to chase him away. "Look at you, you scared people away as soon as you came."

"If you have nothing else, leave now and do not disturb other people's work."

"Do you not have anything to do?"

Yami grabbed Konan's cold little hand and led her outside without saying anything. "Since both of us are in the way, let us find a place where we will not get in the way. I know a good teahouse there."

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Yami did not eat Konan in one bite. The meat had already fallen into the pot and would be in his mouth sooner or later. There was no need to rush to eat it while it was half-cooked.

He just spent the whole afternoon chatting with Konan about everything under the sun, and there was not even any meaningful conversation.

But there is an old saying that makes sense.

If she is inexperienced, take her to see the world. If she has experienced a lot, ride the carousel with her.

Konan was a miserable person who had experienced many vicissitudes of life. Yami thought it was worth spending an afternoon to let her relax.

After the two came out of the tea room, Konan's condition was obviously much better.

The next day.

The Chunin Exams came to its last day, and today was also the day with the most visitors. Even the square was packed with people.

Because Naruto and Sasuke's match was scheduled on this day.

With two strong players second only to the Sage of Six Paths and Yami appearing, even this kind of bullying game could still attract a lot of people to watch.

Even Yami came to watch the show.

"Did you tell Naruto what I said?"

In the box, Yami was eating a watermelon when he suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Kakashi, who was leaning against the wall reading a pornographic book.

"What?" Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then reacted. "Cannot use Sage Mode and Mangekyō?"

"Yeah." Yami nodded.

"Of course."

Kakashi smiled helplessly. "But I do not think that is necessary. With their strength, they can easily win even with pure taijutsu. This instruction is a bit unnecessary."

"Oh."

Yami smiled noncommittally. "Sasuke is okay, but as for Naruto... nothing he does is surprising."

Kakashi was speechless.

Soon, the competition began.

The small shrimps in front did not cause any commotion, and no one came for them. It was not until the halftime when Sasuke came on the field that the scene became lively.

There were also giant TIFOs hung on both sides of the audience stand, with the pattern of Sasuke's handsome face.

Even Yami was stunned by this operation.

When did Sasuke become so popular? He is almost threatening me.
