"Why're you all staring? Think a good kid like me would steal wives like my Cao Thief buddy? Jeez."
Facing Hiashi and crew's glares, Ye Wu Di shrugged indifferently.
Too bad—no one bought it.
Good kid?
Believe you my ass!

At their punchable faces…
Ye Wu Di faked deep hurt.
"Sigh—being good's the hardest! Only my Hinata gets me… smack smack…"
He dipped low, slurping sweet nectar.
Hinata's cheeks flushed deeper.
Long lashes fluttered—she was waking!
"…"
Hiashi—mid-self-soothing silence—spun to Root's three, growling:
"Leave now—or stay forever!"
Can't keep these three here.
Or this punk'd corrupt his daughter more!
Hearing Hiashi's warning, Root's three bolted—no looking back.
But just as they stepped…
Three Ye Wu Di clones—masked by Hyuga/ANBU chakra—slipped silently behind.
Tiger seals formed, locked on weak spots.
Ye Wu Di's real body waved politely from afar.
"Since you're in such a rush, a good kid like me must see you off."
See us off?
You mean…
Root's three knew.
But with chakra scraps left? Too slow…
Result? Blast-off!
Konoha Secret Taijutsu · Thousand Years of Death!
"OHHH! Damn you Ye Wu Di—I'll be baaack…!"
Before all eyes, Root's three launched—rocketing away.
Splatter-splat trail, fart-boosts for speed!

Seeing +3k points…
Ye Wu Di beamed—nearly cheered!
Keep going, my leeks!
Endless negative emotions—yes!
"Eek… Brother Wu Di? Right! Bad guys! Hngh! Don't… fear—I'll help… beat the baddies…"
"Huh? Brother Wu Di—where'd the… baddies go?"
Empty rooftop—Hinata blinked innocent big eyes at him.
Ye Wu Di softened, playing with her tiny hand.
Leaned in—foreheads touched.
"No fear—bad guys gone. We're safe."
"My Hinata's the best—always thinking of me."
"B-Brother… not here… so many peo… thud!"
Seeing this…
Hiashi—coal-black from earlier—sighed helplessly, turned away.
"Take them home."
Kid's a chaos magnet, overly polite…
And has weird hobbies…
But his love for Hinata? Real.
"Got it, clan head!"
Elder nodded to ANBU trio.
They bolted—no hesitation.
Mission: protect Ye Wu Di.
He's heading to Hyuga turf? Done.
Just report to the boss.
But just out of range…
Ye Wu Di's polite voice rang:
"Names? How else can I thank you properly later?!"
"…"
Thank us?
You want our wives, punk!
If not Hyuga son-in-law + boss's favorite—we'd grind you!
Ding! Congratulations, Host, for earning 999 points of negative emotions from ANBU Jonin!

"Ah, they left? Wanted all-night chats…"
Seeing Ye Wu Di's sad puppy face, Hinata's heart ached.
Tiny hand to head—seed-cracking hard thought.
"Right! Brother Wu Di—home, I'll ask Daddy! He'll know those nice uncles!"
"Then we'll thank them together!"
Ye Wu Di's eyes sparkled, smack smack—grinning:
"Hahaha! Hinata, my lucky star! My good wife!"
"Ah~ Lucky star… good wife… can't… thud!"
Sweet words + closeness skyrocketed her.
Steam from head, eyes chaotic—fainted in his arms.
Ye Wu Di smiled slyly, ready to head home.
But first step…
Elder—glancing left/right—grabbed his shoulder.
"Kid—that recipe real?"
Ye Wu Di's head: giant ?
Then teasing grin:
"Elder—you're spry for your age!"
Cough. "Our branch's thin—wanna contribute."
"Nah—saw a girl, huh? Heart itching?"
Ye Wu Di knew elder lied.
Perfect point-farming chance—no miss!
Sure enough—elder flushed awkward.
"I…"
"No worries—I get it. Man's normal."
"Recipe's solid—trust me."
Pat-pat elder's shoulder.
Elder beamed—but probed:
"Really?"
"'Course! I'm Hinata's husband, Hyuga son-in-law—why scam you?"
"Like a melon seller giving unripe gourds? BS! "
Elder nodded—made sense.
Then Ye Wu Di flashed extremely kind smile.
"Since you're good…"
"Pay up."
