"Yugao, aren't you going to introduce him to me?" Yamei turned to look at the pale, sickly-looking boy, Gekko Hayate, who had been smiling the entire time.
"Cough, cough. This is my boyfriend, Gekko Hayate."
"Hayate, you know Kurenai, so I won't introduce her. As for this one, you can think of him as Kurenai's younger brother, Hyakawa Yamei."
After Uzuki Yugao's introduction, Yamei stepped forward and held out his hand. "Brother Hayate, it's great to meet you!"
"Hello, Yamei. It's great to meet you too." Hayate stepped forward and shook Yamei's hand.

Yamei's pupils suddenly contracted. A Kekkei Genkai! Seamallow Release!
He hadn't expected to obtain it so easily!
This was an exceptionally powerful Kekkei Genkai for reconnaissance, concealment, and ambushes. It could hide one's body and Chakra presence, shielding them from detection!
Though it did not provide much of a boost in offensive power, if mastered properly, a powerful ninja who came and went like a ghost... would be everyone's nightmare.
Suppressing his excitement, Yamei looked at Yugao and struck up a conversation. "Yugao, which ninja villages are participating in the Chunin Exams this time?"
"There are quite a few." Yugao thought for a moment.
"Yugao, let's sit down and talk slowly." Yamei hurriedly took Yugao's hand and was about to sit down.
Wasn't this exactly why he had not asked about Gekko Hayate and Yūhi Kurenai?
After all, with her boyfriend right there, it would not have been appropriate for him to step forward and shake her hand directly.
But holding hands and sitting down to chat like an older sister and younger brother would seem perfectly natural.
