Nami Was Angry

Uchiha Nami emerged from the Kamui Dimension with a delighted expression on her face.

After spending so long in that sunless, dark environment, being able to come out and see the outside world again was something that made her incredibly happy.

But when Nami saw Samui standing beside Mingyou, with Samui affectionately clinging to his arm,

Nami was instantly displeased, and her little face immediately fell.

She stepped forward and forcibly pulled the two apart, then gave Mingyou a hard shove. "You... What exactly is your relationship?"

An awkward look immediately appeared on Mingyou's face. He had actually forgotten about this little girl.

Nami was a jealous little thing. Now that Mingyou had brought Samui back just like that, there was no way Nami could accept it.

"Nami, listen to my explanation." Mingyou stammered for a long time, but in the end, he could not squeeze out a single word. "I..."

How was he even supposed to explain something like this?

Was he supposed to say that he had failed to restrain himself and ended up sleeping with Samui?

Then she had suffered inhuman treatment in the Land of Lightning, so she had followed him back to the Uchiha?

"Explain, then! Say something!" Nami's beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Mingyou. She looked as though she were staring at a heartless man who had betrayed her, wishing she could see straight through his thoughts.

Slap!

In the end, Nami could not hold back. She raised her fair, tender hand and fiercely slapped Mingyou across the cheek.

Her eyes reddened, and two streams of tears rolled down her lovely face. Then she turned and ran toward the distant woods.

"Mingyou, hurry up and go after her! If anything happens to my girl, I won't let you off!"

Soki glared at Mingyou angrily.

Nami was his only precious granddaughter, and he had even arranged her marriage to Mingyou.

Yet now, before their wedding had even taken place, Mingyou had already gotten involved with another woman.

"Mingyou, go check on her." Uchiha Mikoto sighed helplessly. She was equally helpless over the romantic trouble her son had caused.

"Alright, alright, I got it. Don't worry, I'll go right away."

Mingyou gave an awkward laugh.

What had happened between him and Samui had been an accident. No one had expected it.

Now, Mingyou had ended up offending both sides.

"Stay here obediently. I'll go check on that girl." Mingyou patted Samui's delicate hand, his eyes full of apology.

Samui nodded gently without showing any intention of blaming him. "Go on. I'll be fine."

"Mm." Mingyou did not linger any longer. Nami had already run far away, reaching the edge of the forest.

"Nami, wait for me! Stop running!"

In the forest, Nami wore an angry little frown as she sprinted desperately ahead, completely ignoring Mingyou's pursuit behind her.

"Wait!" Mingyou chased through the dense woods, drenched in sweat. Was this little girl a rabbit or something? How could she run so fast?

After a long while, they reached the end of the forest, where the light had been thoroughly blocked by dense leaves.

"Stop following me! Go back and find your little lover!"

Nami turned around and shouted at him impatiently.

She pulled out several shuriken and hurled them at Mingyou.

"Ah!!"

Mingyou let out a scream, and his body fell straight down from the tree.

Thud!

After a dull impact, Mingyou made no further sound.

"Big Brother Mingyou, are you alright?!"

Nami's lovely face was full of panic. She had only wanted to throw the shuriken to drive Mingyou away.

But for some reason, she had actually hurt him.

She quickly spun around and ran back in the direction where Mingyou had fallen.

"Ow... I'm dying. I can't stop the bleeding."

Mingyou lay beneath a large tree, clutching his abdomen with both hands as he groaned.

Yet there was not the slightest trace of blood on him. His act was absurdly fake.

"Big Brother Mingyou, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I didn't mean to."

Nami's eyes turned red with anxiety. She was consumed by deep self-blame and never imagined that Mingyou would deceive her.

"Let me see how badly you're hurt. Is it serious? I'll treat it for you."

Nami hurriedly bent down to check Mingyou's injuries.

Mingyou suddenly spread apart the hands covering his abdomen and grinned at Nami. "Eh? I'm fine. Hehe, I tricked you."

"You... you bastard!" Nami froze for a moment before finally realizing what had happened. She glared at Mingyou angrily. "You think that's funny?"

Mingyou immediately wiped the smile from his face and looked at Nami with solemn sincerity. "I'm sorry, Nami. I shouldn't have joked with you like that, but you kept ignoring me. I could only use this method to trick you into coming back."

"I don't want to see you right now." Nami gave a light snort, turned around, and started walking out of the forest again.

"Wait." Mingyou reached out and grabbed Nami's arm, forcefully pulling her back. "Can you listen to me finish?"

Nami's eyes glistened with mist, and two streams of tears slowly slid down from her eyelids. "I won't listen. I don't want to hear it right now."

Seeing Nami so heartbroken, Mingyou's heart ached as well. He pulled her into his arms. "I'm sorry. Don't cry, okay? It's all my fault."

"Don't touch me, let go..." Nami sobbed as she cried, struggling desperately to break free from Mingyou's embrace. But she found that her strength was far inferior to his, and no matter what she did, she could not escape.

Mingyou held Nami tightly and did not let go no matter how she struggled.

"Nami, I haven't forgotten the marriage we agreed on. You've always been in my heart."

"As for Samui, listen while I explain it to you slowly."

Nami's body trembled slightly. At last, she stopped resisting and gently rested her head on Mingyou's shoulder, listening as the man she had always kept in her heart spoke softly into her ear.

As Mingyou slowly told Nami about everything that had happened to him over the past few days,

Worried looks appeared on Nami's lovely face from time to time, and she nervously held her breath over Mingyou's repeated brushes with death.

In the end, when she learned that Mingyou and Samui had already become husband and wife in all but name, she truly did feel a trace of dissatisfaction.

Suddenly, the delicate hand wrapped around Mingyou pinched hard at the soft flesh of his waist.

"Ah!" A sharp pain shot through Mingyou's waist, and he could not help crying out, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

Nami gave a light snort. "This is your first punishment."

"Huh? The first? Is there going to be a second?" Mingyou felt utterly depressed. Did he have to stay on guard from now on in case Nami suddenly launched an attack?

But no matter what, he was the one at fault this time. If the little girl liked pinching him, then he would let her.

It was not as though she could really pinch off a piece of flesh.
