Chapter 388 Empty Nest Xiao Nan

Mikoto Uchiha only took a small taste, and after she finished, she pinched his cheek like an elder.

"You seem a little unhappy."

As she spoke, she increased the pressure on her hand.

"I hope Aoba doesn't think I'm an old lady."

Baiyun Qingye immediately came to her senses and quickly shook her head in denial, "Of course not, Aunt Mikoto is forever twenty years old in my eyes."

"Just your sweet mouth."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto Uchiha's lips curled up, and she let go of the other person's face, which had been pinched and was already slightly red.

"Alright, Auntie won't keep you any longer. Sasuke will be back soon, and I still need to prepare dinner."

"Okay, goodbye, Aunt Mikoto."

After saying goodbye, Baiyun Qingye left immediately.

Watching the boy's departing figure, Uchiha Mikoto also keenly looked around for a while.

After confirming that no one had noticed what she had just done, she quickly returned to the house.

Leaning against the door.

Her pretty face, full of collagen, was flushed with a rosy blush.

"call--"

"It's just the love and care that elders have for their juniors."

Mikoto Uchiha took a deep breath and patted her face, trying to calm herself down.

However, the place she actually wanted to kiss wasn't actually the cheek...

Mikoto Uchiha went back to her bedroom, placed the gift box containing the kimono on the bed, and then went out.

When she returned, there were a few water droplets hanging from the ends of her hair, and her fair skin was slightly flushed.

She pressed her palms against her burning cheeks and stepped forward to pick up the gift box.

Having not worn a kimono for so many years, she decided to try it on first.

If there are any problems, you can talk to Aoba in time.

With that in mind, she slowly unpacked the box, carefully took out the kimono inside, and began to put it on.

The process of changing into a kimono is quite complicated, and it took Uchiha Mikoto a lot of effort to get it right.

Just then, the wind chimes hanging on the downstairs door started ringing again.

Could it be that Aoba has returned?

Uchiha Mikoto was startled and quickly returned to the living room.

However, it wasn't Shirakumo Aoba who appeared at the door, but her own son, Uchiha Sasuke.

This left Mikoto Uchiha slightly disappointed.

"Sasuke, welcome back."

"Mom... um?"

Uchiha Sasuke originally wanted to greet her, but he was instantly stunned when he saw his mother's attire.

"Mom, are you wearing... a kimono?"

Sasuke didn't really understand this either; sometimes he couldn't tell the difference between a kimono and a yukata.

However, the outfit that Mikoto Uchiha is wearing now is clearly much more luxurious than a yukata.

"Ah."

Mikoto Uchiha smiled and nodded, then deliberately twirled in front of Sasuke, asking, "How do I look in this outfit?"

Sasuke poured himself a glass of water, glanced at it casually, and then gave his opinion, "It's very beautiful, but Mom, why did you suddenly decide to buy a kimono?"

"This is a gift from Aoba to Mom."

Mikoto Uchiha said with a smile.

Sasuke froze as he drank water. "Has Shirokumo Aoba been here?"

"Oh right, Mom, did you forget to cook?"

He finally realized something was wrong, because in the past, when he came back at this time, a sumptuous dinner would be waiting for him.

"Huh?"

Mikoto Uchiha immediately realized what was happening and ran towards the bedroom while apologizing, "Sorry, Sasuke, Mom will change her clothes and then go prepare."

"..."

Sasuke sighed almost imperceptibly, but soon the corners of his mouth slowly turned up again.

Mom seems to be in a good mood today.

But then she became troubled again. Why did her mood improve as soon as that guy came?

-

Baiyun Qingye used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return home directly, worried that if he got back late, he would miss dinner.

After all, Xiao Nan and the others probably don't know that he's coming back today.

So when he suddenly appeared in the living room, no one noticed him at first.

Xiao Nan was sitting alone on the sofa, her somewhat languid figure looking rather lonely.

This scene...

Why do they look so much like empty-nest elderly?

Shouldn't we find something for Xiao Nan to do?

"Lord Aoba?!"

Qin, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, cried out in surprise when she saw Shirakumo Aoba.

The sound immediately caught Xiao Nan's attention.

She immediately turned around and looked over, her previously languid eyes suddenly lighting up.

"Aoba!"

After nodding to the zither, Baiyun Qingye walked up to Xiaonan and hugged her.

"Sister Xiaonan, I miss you so much."

Xiao Nan hugged her back, a genuine smile appearing on her usually cool face. "I missed you too."

The two embraced for a long time, and neither Qin nor Yukito disturbed them.

"Did Sister Xiyan and the others go out on a mission again?"

While asking the question, Baiyun Qingye had already taken out the prepared gift box.

"Ah."

Xiao Nan nodded first, then looked curiously at what Bai Yun Qingye was holding.

"what is this?"

"I bought this kimono while doing this mission."

Baiyun Qingye casually uttered the truth.

At that moment, he clearly felt Xiao Nan beside him stop abruptly in her action of taking the gift box.

She subconsciously raised her hand to try to cover her expression, but she still couldn't hide the corners of her mouth that couldn't help but turn up in joy.

"A kimono..."

Unlike Ino, who is almost a young girl experiencing her first love and overflows with all her emotions, Minami can only barely control her own feelings.

She sat beside Baiyun Qingye, watching him with eyes that sparkled like a pool of spring water.

"My sister really likes this gift."

Xiao Nan put the gift box down again, her eyes suddenly becoming extremely aggressive. "Now, use your ability!"

"?"

Bai Yunqingye understood and quietly unfolded the sealed space, enveloping the group inside.

With the atmosphere set in this way, everything else fell into place naturally.

It all boils down to undressing and handing over grain.

-

With the fighting temporarily over, a tranquil atmosphere once again enveloped this space.

On the sofa, Xiao Nan, her cheeks flushed, nestled contentedly in the boy's arms, her hair, damp with sweat, plastered messily to her face.

A faint, subtle scent lingered in the air.

"Sister Xiao Nan?"

"Ok?"

Are you hungry now?

Actually, he was a little hungry.

I skipped lunch to go find Ino, then gave Anko a good scolding, which took a lot of energy, and now I'm having another one.

Even if he were made of iron, his stomach was starting to give way.

Perhaps it was the kimono that spurred her on, or perhaps it was because they hadn't seen each other for nearly ten days while she was away on a mission, but Nanami seemed unusually eager tonight.

In the past, we would eat dinner first, but today we started without eating dinner.

However, Xiao Nan shook her head.

"It's alright, mainly because I don't have a big appetite, and besides, just now..."

I ate quite a lot.
