Chapter 51: Yuya Meets Inoichi

Taking the Pikachu summoning scroll, Yuya grabbed the backpack he had thrown onto the desk, pulled out all the money inside, and counted it.

After tallying up the expenses for food, lodging, and the cost of buying glass over the past few days, he still had 250,000 taels left, which could be considered a small profit!

And "Konoha Love Story" seems to be selling well, and should be able to cover his daily expenses.

After sorting out all the money, Yuya put it in the drawer under the desk, and when he was about to close it, he suddenly remembered that he still owed Anko a meal, so he took it out again, intending to treat her to a decent meal.

After changing out of his ninja clothes, Yuya took a hot bath to relieve the fatigue from the past few days, put on warm clothes, stepped out, and suddenly remembered a very serious problem.

He doesn't know where Anko's house is.

It seems that he can only invite her to dinner when she comes to pick up the next manuscript.

But now that he has gone out, Yuya really doesn't want to go back to that empty and desolate house. Touching his nose, a figure suddenly flashed in Yuya's mind.

Ino!

During this period of time, Ino has really helped him a lot, and he should show his gratitude emotionally and rationally.

After making the decision, he went straight to Ino's mother's flower shop. Usually, after Ino finished school, she would first go to help take care of the flower shop.

Passing by a jewelry store, Yuya specifically went in, with the intention of choosing a gift for Ino. The store owner is a beautiful lady in her twenties, wearing a Tibetan blue dress, with green plum combs carved into her hair. When she saw Yuya come in, she arched her eyebrows slightly and jokingly said, "Little brother, this is a girls' accessory store, did you come to the wrong place?"

Yuya looked up, looked at the beautiful sister's playful eyes, smiled ignorantly, and said, "Miss, I have a friend whose birthday is coming up and I want to choose a gift for her."

"Oh~," the store owner, named Ogata, elongated her voice, nodded her chin, and said with a look of understanding, "Is it a little girlfriend? Then you pick it out!"

The contents of this store are quite comprehensive, including flower hairpins, stirrers, combs, and blush.

Yuya looked at the shelves twice and felt dazzled.

He really doesn't understand the world of girls!

Finally, under the most inner glass counter, he saw a silk scarf in a wooden box in various styles, but he was drawn to the one with a light color background and white lisianthus flowers embroidered on it.

This scarf immediately reminded him of Ino wearing a kimono and a lisianthus flower on her head, running towards him at the campus festival, holding four bulky bento boxes.

After careful inspection, the scarf was quite suitable for Ino. Yuya turned to the owner and said, "Miss, can you help me with this scarf?"

Ogata approached and said, "Which one? Show me."

Yuya pointed to the purple platycodon flower scarf. Ogata raised her eyebrows slightly, took out the scarf, and said, "Little brother, you have good taste. It's handmade, very delicate, and suitable for girls. But it's a bit expensive, 5,000 taels."

Looking closely, Yuya discovered that the stitches were tight and he didn't know what sewing method was used. The two platycodon flowers were embroidered on the bottom left of the scarf, giving a vivid feeling, and it was very soft and smooth to the touch.

"I want it!" Satisfied, Yuya directly took out 5,000 taels from his wallet, handed them to the owner, and said, "Please help me pack it, thank you."

...

When Ino went to the flower shop to help with the business after school, few people came to buy flowers and the shop was very quiet. After all, few people would send flowers at night.

Although Mrs. Yamanaka is still obsessed with "Konoha Love Story," the new book has not been published yet, so she has no choice. In addition, although working in a flower shop is easy, it is cumbersome. When Ino is helping to take care of the shop, she sorts the flowers to ensure they are sufficient and fresh.

A batch of fresh flowers has just arrived at the flower shop today and needs to be transplanted. Ino was called to help when she had nothing to do.

"Ino, Aunt Yamanaka." After Yuya saw the two beautiful women, he greeted them politely.

Ino, who was lying bored on the counter, immediately sat up when she heard You Xia's voice and said excitedly, "Ah, Yuya, why are you here?"

Mrs. Yamanaka also stood up, looked at Yuya, smiled softly, and said very kindly, "Yuya-kun, are you here to see Ino?"

"Yes!" Yuya nodded and then said, "The bento last time was delicious, thank you, Aunt Yamanaka."

Mrs. Yamanaka, who was praised, couldn't help but applaud and said happily, "That's really great! If you have the opportunity, you can come to our house as a guest and auntie will cook for you."

"Okay, I will definitely go to Aunt's house if I have the opportunity."

After Yuya finished speaking smoothly, he approached Ino and gave her the gift, "Thank you for helping me at the school festival last time. Here, I'll give you a small gift. Also, I want to invite you to a delicious meal tonight."

Inoichi, known as an overprotective father, was working in the small warehouse in the back when he suddenly heard someone asking his daughter out to dinner, he couldn't help but run out immediately, holding a pot in his right hand, pointing at Yuya.

He said, "Boy, who are you? What do you want to do to my daughter?" He simply heard it clearly, the last time his daughter fed this kid, she seemed strange since she came back.

He felt like a thief stole his little gem of a lifetime.

Now he's even more aggressive, and came directly to the shop to give Ino a gift, and even asked her out to dinner. Are all the little devils in Konoha so active now?

Seeing Inoichi's appearance, the head of the Yamanaka clan, Yuya suddenly felt mischievous and responded with a familiar look, "My name is Yuya, and I'm a good friend of Ino's. Are you her father by any chance?"

"Don't talk to me so casually, we don't know each other well!"

After receiving the gift, Ino, whose heart was already beating a mile a minute, saw her father's abnormal appearance and said angrily, "Dad, why are you suddenly so angry with Yuya? You don't even know him!"

Critical Hit!!!

Inoichi endured the pain in his heart and said, "This boy's purpose is not pure, dad is protecting you!"

"What impure purpose can Yuya have?" Ino blinked, unable to understand what her father was saying.
