"What? Hanako, are you going to invite me on a date?!"

Inside the Ichiraku Ramen shop, Naruto's shocked voice broke through the sky.

He looked at the cute red-haired girl in front of him and recalled what he had just heard. While he was ecstatic, he couldn't help but wonder if this was a dream.

In order to verify whether he was awake, Naruto grabbed his thigh hard.

"Ah!!! It hurts, it hurts! It hurts!!!"

"..."

Is there really nothing wrong with Naruto's IQ?

Hanami Akira looked at Naruto who was showing off his skills speechlessly, and shook his head in amusement.

Fortunately, he is just a boy. With Naruto like this, it is okay to be a friend and a buddy. If he were a real girl, he would probably have rejected Sanlian long ago.

At the same time, Uncle Yile and Acorus also looked at the boy and "girl" in front of them with a "you are so young" look, and couldn't help but sigh at the courage of the "girl".

Especially Acorus, she glanced at Naruto with hatred and was speechless.

Really, such a good opportunity, but Naruto, a guy who usually seems very brave, didn't seize the opportunity. It's really frustrating.

It actually requires a girl to take the initiative...

Alas, boys nowadays.

Calamus shook his head, and nodded with a kind and gratified look, as if "the pig he raised at home will finally eat other people's cabbage." He supported the other person A to go up with encouraging eyes, and whispered a reminder.

"Hey, Naruto, hurry up and agree! You haven't answered the girl yet!"

"Ah? Ah! That's right! I do! I'm very willing to go to the Konoha Festival! Really!"

Naruto looked at "Hanako" with bright blue eyes, his expectation was self-evident.

But then, Naruto suddenly remembered something, his eyes dimmed, he sighed, and shook his head.

"No, forget it. If I go, it will only spoil the fun. If I go with you, Hanako, it will make you unhappy."

Naruto actually cares about the eyes of others. His dream is to become Hokage and gain recognition from others.

He usually looks nonchalant, but it's just that he has a strong ability to withstand pressure.

However, in fact, Naruto still struggles with this kind of thing in his heart. He is naturally kind-hearted and does not want to make Hanako unpopular because of his own reasons.

However, this so-called date was just a misunderstanding between a few people.

"You have misunderstood. I just think it would be a pity if Naruto doesn't go to such a grand festival as the Konoha Festival, so I suggest that Naruto go and take a look."

"Eh? Doesn't that mean you invited me on a date?"

"Of course not, I have something to do that day - I just suggested that you go to the Konoha Festival."

Hanami Akira didn't take words like "date" to heart. After all, date itself means "agreeing to meet." There are many gay adjectives and scenes in "gay" in Naruto. This should be a custom relationship.

As for Naruto's expectations being disappointed, he had already made excuses.

"I will leave Konoha for a while soon."

"Are you in such a hurry?" Naruto said with a sad face, "Can we wait until after the festival?"

"Then it will be too late."

In order to show that he was not just talking nonsense, Hanami Ming explained.

"After the First Hokage established Konoha, other major countries immediately followed suit and established other ninja villages, such as Sunagakure, Kirigakure, Iwagakure, Raigakure, etc. These villages also regarded the people who built the village as

One day is set as a festival day in my ninja village."

"Ah, so...that's right, Hanako-chan, your father is a traveling merchant."

Naruto suddenly understood and felt that he understood.

"So in order to deliver the scheduled goods before the festivals in each ninja village, you have to leave with me, right?"

"Well, that's right, that's it."

"Oh? Isn't that a pity?" Calamus said regretfully, "Wouldn't it be possible for you to enjoy every festival?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the goods this time have been booked a long time ago."

Hua Jianming pretended to be helpless and won everyone's understanding.

At this time, Naruto was already lying on the table languidly. Obviously, this news was also a blow to him.

"Don't be like this, Naruto." Hana Jianming saw this and comforted him, "Even if I'm not here, you can still invite the classmates in the class to play together, right?"

"No one will want to be with me."

Naruto muttered quietly, but did not complain any more. Instead, he showed a big smile to Hanami Akira and gave a thumbs up.

"Don't worry, Hanako-chan! I'll have fun by myself for the day!"

Having said that, Naruto had already made up his mind not to leave randomly on that day, so as not to make everyone unhappy and ruin the festive atmosphere.

In fact, whenever there is an important time like the New Year or a holiday, Naruto will not come to Ichiraku Ramen.

After all, every time he is around, the store's business will be affected, and other customers will leave or be unwilling to come in.

Naruto likes Ichiraku Ramen very much, and he also likes Uncle Ichiraku and Sister Iris who often help him. For this reason, he doesn't want to cause trouble to the two of them.

Uncle Ichiraku also obviously saw Naruto's plan.

He actually didn't care about this, but this was also Naruto's intention, and in front of the girl Naruto cared about, it was better to see things through without telling them.
